Book Synopsis Der Sozialstaat im Urteil der Bevölkerung by : Oliver Nüchter
Download or read book Der Sozialstaat im Urteil der Bevölkerung written by Oliver Nüchter and published by Barbara Budrich. This book was released on 2010-02-18 with total page 145 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Die große Sozialstaats-Studie Der deutsche Sozialstaat befindet sich in einer kontroversen Diskussion. In dieser Studie geht es um die Einstellungen der Bevölkerung zum Sozialstaat, das Vertrauen in die einzelnen Sicherungssysteme, die Akzeptanz von Reformmaßnahmen sowie die Beurteilung seiner Zukunftsfähigkeit. Es handelt sich um den abschließenden Bericht einer von 2005 bis 2008 durchgeführten Sozialstaats-Studie. Der deutsche Sozialstaat wurde in den letzten Jahren nachhaltig reformiert. Durch die Umsetzung des Reformkonzepts Agenda 2010 sowie weiterer Maßnahmen kommt es zu einer neuen Balance zwischen sozialstaatlicher Absicherung und individueller Vorsorge. Aspekte wie Eigenverantwortung und Aktivierung, die im traditionellen Sicherungskonzept eher eine untergeordnete Rolle spielten, werden im Umbauprozess aufgewertet und ergänzen klassische Sozialstaatsziele wie Armutsvermeidung oder Lebensstandardsicherung. Die Einstellungen der Bevölkerung zum Sozialstaat sind gar nicht so bekannt. Dies betrifft sowohl z. B. das Vertrauen der Menschen in die verschiedenen Sicherungssysteme als auch die Beurteilung der Zukunftsfähigkeit des Sozialstaats oder die Akzeptanz von unterschiedlichen Reformmaßnahmen.

Book Synopsis The Rich in Public Opinion by : Rainer Zitelmann
Download or read book The Rich in Public Opinion written by Rainer Zitelmann and published by Cato Institute. This book was released on 2020-03-31 with total page 488 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What do people in the United States and Europe think about the rich? There are several thousand books and articles on stereotypes and prejudices directed at countless different social groups. In contrast, there has only been sporadic research into stereotypes about the rich and no published comprehensive, scientific study on the topic—until now. Negative prejudices and stereotypes have repeatedly been used to justify the exclusion, expulsion, persecution, and murder of minorities who have been scapegoated at times of social crises. The 20th century is full of examples of wealthy people, including capitalists, kulaks, and other groups, who were victims of deadly persecution. These were exceptional situations but, even in moderate forms, prejudice against social groups harms society as a whole—not just the rich—through economic or physical destruction and declining prosperity. In The Rich in Public Opinion: What We Think When We Think about Wealth, historian and sociologist Rainer Zitelmann examines attitudes about wealth and the wealthy in four industrialized Western countries: Germany, the United States, France, and Great Britain. Consisting of three parts, this book first surveys the literature about stereotypes and prejudices. Zitelmann then reports on never‐before‐seen data commissioned by the polling firm Ipsos MORI and from the Allensbach Institute, which conducted identical surveys of residents of the four countries regarding various aspects of their attitudes toward wealth. Lastly, The Rich in Public Opinion looks at the portrayal of the rich in media and film. People often admire the wealthy, but Zitelmann shows that people can also envy them—a sometimes toxic envy that can put lives at risk. This book aims to examine how we think about a minority that, while undeniably powerful, can still be the subject of scapegoating—often with dire effects for us all.

Book Synopsis Peripheries at the Centre by : Machteld Venken
Download or read book Peripheries at the Centre written by Machteld Venken and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2021-03-01 with total page 279 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Following the Treaty of Versailles, European nation-states were faced with the challenge of instilling national loyalty in their new borderlands, in which fellow citizens often differed dramatically from one another along religious, linguistic, cultural, or ethnic lines. Peripheries at the Centre compares the experiences of schooling in Upper Silesia in Poland and Eupen, Sankt Vith, and Malmedy in Belgium — border regions detached from the German Empire after the First World War. It demonstrates how newly configured countries envisioned borderland schools and language learning as tools for realizing the imagined peaceful Europe that underscored the political geography of the interwar period.

Book Synopsis The Institutional Logic of Welfare Attitudes by : Christian Albrekt Larsen
Download or read book The Institutional Logic of Welfare Attitudes written by Christian Albrekt Larsen and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-02-24 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why are people who live in liberal welfare regimes reluctant to support welfare policy? And conversely, why are people who live in social democratic welfare regimes so keen to support it? These core questions lie at the heart of this intriguing book. By examining how different welfare regimes influence public support for welfare policy, the book explores the institutional settings of different regimes and how each produces its own support. While previous studies in this field have failed to link the macro-structure of welfare regimes and the micro-structure of welfare attitudes, this book redresses this problem by combining welfare regime theory and literature on deservingness criteria alongside empirical evidence from national and cross-national data. While recent trends in welfare state development such as cuts in benefit levels and increased use of targeting, combined with increased immigration, might very well influence our perceptions of the deservingness of the needy, this book provides a strong, convincing and provoking argument that challenges the micro-foundation of present comparative welfare state theory. The result is an important work for all studying and working in the fields of public policy and social welfare.
Book Synopsis Reshaping Welfare States and Activation Regimes in Europe by : SALTSA (Program)
Download or read book Reshaping Welfare States and Activation Regimes in Europe written by SALTSA (Program) and published by Peter Lang. This book was released on 2007 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The activation-based intervention paradigm is being adopted by several European countries resulting in major reforms to the social welfare system. The spread of the activation paradigm has had major repercussions, not only for welfare interventions aimed at combating unemployment, but also for the political regulation of the social question and citizenship. Citizenship is being redefined in contractual terms and greater emphasis is being placed on its economic aspects. Nevertheless, a wide range of policies are labelled with recourse to this interpretative framework and a pluralistic approach to implementation could serve just as well to empower as to weaken workers'/citizens' position in society. This book analyses the extent of these changes from a cross-cultural perspective. Institutional settings as well as prevailing work values and social representation of social exclusion (activation regimes) have a key role in defining the instruments to be used in national activation strategies to regulate the behaviour of job seekers. In this book, a discussion about the range of social welfare model reforms throughout Europe and a typology of activation regimes is proposed.

Book Synopsis The Making of the German Post-War Economy by : Christian L. Glossner
Download or read book The Making of the German Post-War Economy written by Christian L. Glossner and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2010-02-28 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The years following the end of World War II in Germany were a significant period of change and upheaval. This book on the economic reconstruction of post-war West Germany traces the development of economic and socio-political ideas, and their gradual absorption by mainstream politicians, officials and the general public during the period of transition between 1945 and 1949. In the aftermath of World War II, several German think-tanks, political parties and individuals gave impulse to and then shaped the development of a viable socio-political and economic model between the extremes of laissez-faire capitalism and the collectivist planned economy. In their endeavours to bring into effect their particular economic ideas - often diametrically opposed to one another - the parties of left and right stimulated not only academic and political debate, but also public debate about the political and economic reconstruction of occupied post-war Germany. While all the various neo-liberal approaches assigned to the people sovereign and decisive status in the institutional economic order, and recognised the interdependence of politics, economics and the public, one particular school of economic thought outpaced the others in communicating a model of coordinated economic and social policy, namely the Social Market Economy. Christian Glossner here investigates whether or not it was primarily the subtlety of the political campaign for this model that led to its implementation by the then Economic Council and eventual validation by the German electorate. The programmes published by the principal academic and political groups of the time and the practical day-to-day decisions of the first parliament in post-war Germany are analysed with reference to popular preferences. By examining both the formative involvement of German parties in post-war reconstruction and the role of the public during the process of economic liberalisation, this book provides explanations for why the Social Market Economy prevailed as the socio-political and economic model for the Federal Republic of Germany. It will be of interest to scholars of German, economic and twentieth-century history.
Book Synopsis Factorial Survey Experiments by : Katrin Auspurg
Download or read book Factorial Survey Experiments written by Katrin Auspurg and published by SAGE Publications. This book was released on 2014-11-28 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Filling a gap in the literature of the field, Factorial Survey Experiments provides researchers with a practical guide to using the factorial survey method to assess respondents’ beliefs about the world, judgment principles, or decision rules through multi-dimensional stimuli (“vignettes”) that resemble real-life decision-making situations. Using insightful examples to illustrate their arguments, authors Katrin Auspurg and Thomas Hinz guide researchers through all relevant steps, including how to set up the factorial experimental design (drawing samples of vignettes and respondents), how to handle the practical challenges that must be mastered when an experimental plan with many different treatments is embedded in a survey format, and how to deal with questions of data analysis. In addition to providing the “how-tos” of designing factorial survey experiments, the authors cover recent developments of similar methods, such as conjoint analyses, choice experiments, and more advanced statistical tools.

Book Synopsis A History of Twentieth-Century Germany by : Ulrich Herbert
Download or read book A History of Twentieth-Century Germany written by Ulrich Herbert and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2019-08-15 with total page 1088 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Germany in the 20th century endured two world wars, a failed democracy, Hitler's dictatorship, the Holocaust, and a country divided for 40 years after World War II. But it has also boasted a strong welfare state, affluence, liberalization and globalization, a successful democracy, and the longest period of peace in European history. A History of Twentieth-Century Germany provides a survey of German history during a century of extremes. Ulrich Herbert sees German history in the 20th century as determined by two contradictory perspectives. On one hand, there are the world wars and great catastrophes that divide the country's history into two parts-before and after 1945. Germany is the birthplace of radical ideologies of the left and right and the only country in which each ideology became the foundation of government. This pattern left its stamp on both the first and second halves of the century. On the other hand, the rise of modern industrial society led to decades of conflict over the social and political order regardless of which political system was in force. Considering these contradictory developments, Herbert tackles the questions of both the collapse in the first half of the century and the development from a post-fascist, ruined society to one of the most stable liberal democracies in the world in the latter half. Herbert's analysis brings together wars and terror, utopia and politics, capitalism and the welfare state, socialism and liberal democratic society, gender and generations, culture and lifestyles, European integration and globalization. The resulting book sets a standard by which historians of the period will be measured in the future.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Aspects of political culture, i.e. concerns with the 'subjective' dimension of politics including dominant political orientations, perceptions and interpretations, always have been particularly relevant with regard to the case of Germany and its great variety of political regimes during the last century. This is true both with regard to political science and practical politics. This volume provides a comprehensive overview concerning the major historical legacies, regional and sub-cultural variations, and current problems of democratic orientations, national identity and relationships to the outside world.
