Book Synopsis Political Engagement of the Young in Europe by : Peter Thijssen
Download or read book Political Engagement of the Young in Europe written by Peter Thijssen and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-12-14 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although many scholars are convinced of the apparent civic disengagement of youth, others suggest that civic participation of young people is stable and increasingly expressed through non-institutionalized forms of practicing politics. This book makes a key contribution to this discussion by asking whether the "decline or shift" paradigm is sufficient in understanding political participation of the youth. It argues that we need to move beyond this framework and develop a renewed reflection on the meaning of "civic and political engagement". It asks crucial questions such as: How can the young be educated into assuming civic and political responsibility? Why and how do young people engage in social and political action? How do the principal mediating institutions (education, media and the family) contribute to new or different forms of youth civic engagement? This text contains contributions from acknowledged specialists such as Constance Flanagan, Mark Elchardus, Marc Hooghe and Bert Klandermans and will be of key interest to students and scholars of youth and young citizens, civic & political involvement, European politics, youth studies, sociology, political participation and electoral behaviour.
Book Synopsis Student engagement in Europe: society, higher education and student governance by : Manja Klemenčič
Download or read book Student engagement in Europe: society, higher education and student governance written by Manja Klemenčič and published by Council of Europe. This book was released on 2015-05-27 with total page 396 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Democratic institutions and laws are essential, but they cannot bring about democracy on their own. They will only function if they build on a culture of democracy, and our societies will not be able to develop and sustain such a culture unless education plays an essential role. Student engagement is crucial: democracy cannot be taught unless it is practised within institutions, among students and in relations between higher education and society in general. This 20th volume of the Council of Europe Higher Education Series demonstrates the importance of student engagement for the development and maintenance of the democratic culture that enables democratic institutions and laws to function in practice. This volume covers three aspects of student engagement that are seldom explored: its role in society through political participation and civic involvement; its place in higher education policy processes and policy-making structures; and how student unions represent the most institutionalised form of student engagement. The authors are accomplished scholars, policy makers, students and student leaders.

Book Synopsis The European Union’s Engagement with the Southern Mediterranean by : Maria Giulia Amadio Viceré
Download or read book The European Union’s Engagement with the Southern Mediterranean written by Maria Giulia Amadio Viceré and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-09-21 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book addresses the EU’s engagement with the Southern Mediterranean. It examines the involvement of EU institutions in member states’ approach to relevant policy issues within the European Neighbourhood Policy, and how such involvement affects the EU’s overall cooperation with countries in the Southern Mediterranean region. In particular, the book offers an assessment of the nature and development of integration in the EU’s approach to trade and economic development, energy security, counterterrorism, irregular migration and asylum, and maritime security. In doing so, it not only provides a precise and thorough overview of the institutional practices underpinning the EU’s engagement with the Southern Mediterranean, but also sheds light on the EU’s evolution beyond the regulatory polity model.
Book Synopsis Framing Civic Engagement, Political Participation and Active Citizenship in Europe by : Cristiano Bee
Download or read book Framing Civic Engagement, Political Participation and Active Citizenship in Europe written by Cristiano Bee and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-12-22 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book evaluates the role that civic engagement, political participation and active citizenship can play in promoting the establishment of a European polity. The chapters included here examine how the practice of active citizenship is managed and constructed in the context of a European drive to increase civic engagement and political participation in three member states (Portugal, Italy and the UK) and one accession country (Turkey). Looking at both processes and policies promoting active citizenship at the European and national levels, this book uncovers current discourses as well as political priorities and values that surround the activities of non- governmental organizations (NGOs). Of particular interest are debates about the nature and level of civic and political participation and engagement of marginal groups (women, youths, migrants and minorities) as they are particularly vulnerable to social exclusion. The book focuses on the interaction between institutions and civil society actors, addressing a number of questions related to their reciprocal role in influencing, shaping, criticising or disregarding certain political priorities. This book was published as a special issue of the Journal of Civil Society.
Book Synopsis The European Union’s Evolving External Engagement by : Chad Damro
Download or read book The European Union’s Evolving External Engagement written by Chad Damro and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-11-07 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent decades, the external action of the European Union (EU) has been undergoing considerable change. An expansion of the EU’s external policy portfolio can be observed in many areas as previous policies for internal purposes – such as competition, energy, the environment, justice and home affairs or monetary governance but also gender, science, culture or higher education – have developed external dimensions. This book addresses the EU’s potential to become a more joined-up global actor in its external engagement. It uses a single and innovative analytical framework to examine three clusters of policies: EU internal sectoral and cross-cutting policies with long-standing external engagement, those which have been undergoing considerable change, and originally internal policies whose external dimensions are comparatively more recent. It identifies key explanatory factors for the emergence of (certain forms of) EU external engagement and identifies patterns of the evolving relations between EU internal and external sectoral policies. As such, the book examines and assesses exciting new empirical and theoretical research avenues into European integration studies and offers insights into the extent to which the EU may be considered a more joined-up global actor developing sectoral diplomacies. This text will be of key interest to scholars and students as well as practitioners in the fields of European Union politics, European Union foreign policy, European Politics, diplomacy studies, and more broadly law and international relations.
Book Synopsis National and Regional Parliaments in the EU-Legislative Procedure Post-Lisbon by : Anna Jonsson Cornell

This book was released on 2017-01-12 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Much has changed in European constitutional law after the Lisbon Treaty, not least the efforts to increase democratic legitimacy by engaging national legislatures and introducing a stricter subsidiary review process, namely the Early Warning Mechanism (EWM). This collection looks at how national parliaments have adapted to their new roles and looks at how the new system has impacted on relations between the EU legislative bodies and national parliaments. A team of experts from across Europe explore the effect of the EWM on the national constitutional orders; analyse the regional impact of EWM and evaluate the new system of scrutiny.
Book Synopsis Corporate Social Responsibility in Europe by : Samuel O. Idowu
Download or read book Corporate Social Responsibility in Europe written by Samuel O. Idowu and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-02-12 with total page 518 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the current state of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) in 24 European nations, examining the state of the development and practice of CSR and sustainability for organizations in these countries. The common denominator for all of the book’s 25 chapters is a management perspective rather than an ethical discourse. The book therefore represents a comprehensive survey of initiatives and activities in the field of CSR and provides a wealth of complete cases and examples for different approaches to sustainable and responsible management practice. The book also reviews the relevant political and governmental guidelines and frameworks for organizations, both on a national and a European level. Europe has taken a leading role in the promotion and implementation of CSR. This book showcases how, through CSR, enterprises can significantly contribute to achieving the European Union’s treaty objectives of sustainable development and a highly competitive social market economy.

Book Synopsis Engaged Learning: Voices Across Europe by : Mary Griffith
Download or read book Engaged Learning: Voices Across Europe written by Mary Griffith and published by Maklu. This book was released on 2022-11-01 with total page 97 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are growing calls for Higher Education Institutions to become more civically engaged and socially relevant in their local regions. The central aim of the Communities and Students Together (CaST) project has been to advance our knowledge and understanding of the myriad forms of Engaged Learning and to develop a deeper understanding of engagement. The project highlighted the diversity and flexibility to be found within Engaged Learning initiatives in each of the participating universities. The examples provided range widely in their structure and intended outcomes. However, the one constant is each initiative’s commitment to a concept where reciprocity between the students, universities and communities is prioritised. This volume includes discussions on the practical methodology, pedagogical strategies and approaches of Engaged Learning, as well as perspectives from both higher education institutes and communities, of the benefits of Engaged Learning in different contexts. The authorshave chosen the title: ‘Voices across Europe’ - in order to represent the wide range of stakeholders’ perspectives involved in Engaged Learning.
