Book Synopsis Historical Dialogue and the Prevention of Mass Atrocities by : Elazar Barkan
Download or read book Historical Dialogue and the Prevention of Mass Atrocities written by Elazar Barkan and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-04-06 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book brings together a diverse range of international voices from academia, policymaking and civil society to address the failure to connect historical dialogue with atrocity prevention discourse and provide insight into how conflict histories and historical memory act as dynamic forces, actively facilitating or deterring current and future conflict. Established on a variety of international case studies combining theoretical and practical points of view, the book envisions an integrated understanding of how historical dialogue can inform policy, education, and the practice of atrocity prevention. In doing so, it provides a vital basis for the development of preventive policies sensitive to the importance of conflict histories and for further academic study on the topic. It will be of interest to all scholars and students of history, psychology, peace studies, international relations and political science.
Book Synopsis Ethnicity without Groups by : Rogers Brubaker
Download or read book Ethnicity without Groups written by Rogers Brubaker and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2006-09-01 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite a quarter-century of constructivist theorizing in the social sciences and humanities, ethnic groups continue to be conceived as entities and cast as actors. Journalists, policymakers, and researchers routinely frame accounts of ethnic, racial, and national conflict as the struggles of internally homogeneous, externally bounded ethnic groups, races, and nations. In doing so, they unwittingly adopt the language of participants in such struggles, and contribute to the reification of ethnic groups. In this timely and provocative volume, Rogers Brubaker—well known for his work on immigration, citizenship, and nationalism—challenges this pervasive and commonsense “groupism.” But he does not simply revert to standard constructivist tropes about the fluidity and multiplicity of identity. Once a bracing challenge to conventional wisdom, constructivism has grown complacent, even cliched. That ethnicity is constructed is commonplace; this volume provides new insights into how it is constructed. By shifting the analytical focus from identity to identifications, from groups as entities to group-making projects, from shared culture to categorization, from substance to process, Brubaker shows that ethnicity, race, and nation are not things in the world but perspectives on the world: ways of seeing, interpreting, and representing the social world.
Download or read book Myths of Europe written by and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2007-01-01 with total page 295 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Myths of Europe focuses on the identity of Europe, seeking to re-assess its cultural, literary and political traditions in the context of the 21st century. Over 20 authors – historians, political scientists, literary scholars, art and cultural historians – from five countries here enter into a debate. How far are the myths by which Europe has defined itself for centuries relevant to its role in global politics after 9/11? Can ‘Old Europe’ maintain its traditional identity now that the European Union includes countries previously supposed to be on its periphery? How has Europe handled relations with the non-European Other in the past and how is it reacting now to an influx of immigrants and asylum seekers? It becomes clear that founding myths such as Hamlet and St Nicholas have helped construct the European consciousness but also that these and other European myths have disturbing Eurocentric implications. Are these myths still viable today and, if so, to what extent and for what purpose? This volume sits on the interface between culture and politics and is important reading for all those interested in the transmission of myth and in both the past and the future of Europe.

Book Synopsis A Prayer for Europe by : Afaaf Al-Hamdan
Download or read book A Prayer for Europe written by Afaaf Al-Hamdan and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-09-03 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is no secret. European societies and the way of life are under threat by global economics, immigration, and innovation. Minority populations are typically discriminated against when there is a scarcity of resources, like the Kurds have been treated historically, but there are some differences in the EU today in comparison to the past. Immigrants coming to the EU are fleeing problems they have created, and Europeans are not free to immigrate to the nations of these people nor would they want to in the vast majority of circumstances. Islamists have a dream of returning Europe to the power of the Turkish Empire that ruled Europe and North Africa for nearly 600 years, and if there are not some serious political and economic changes in Europe, this could easily become a reality. The mistakes of the past and the political objectives of Muslim extremists have put Europe and all Western nations in a very precarious and vulnerable position. China is set to quietly profit from the fall of Western societies as the media continues to perpetuate the narratives that keep the Arabs pumping oil and Europeans guilty. The Brexit was unpopular, but it will be looked back in history as the savviest move by any European country during these times of uncertainty, especially from a financial standpoint.

Book Synopsis Social Europe, the Road not Taken by : Aurélie Dianara Andry
Download or read book Social Europe, the Road not Taken written by Aurélie Dianara Andry and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2022-10-20 with total page 333 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the European Left's attempt to think and give shape to an alternative type of European integration-a 'social Europe'-during the long 1970s. Based on fresh archival material, it shows that the western European Left-in particular social democratic parties, trade unions, and to a lesser extent 'Eurocommunist' parties-formulated a project to turn 'capitalist Europe' into a 'workers' Europe'. This project favoured coordinated measures for wealth redistribution, market regulation, a democratisation of the economy and of European institutions, upward harmonisation of social and fiscal systems, more inclusive welfare regimes, guaranteed employment, economic and social planning with greater consideration for the environment, increased public spending to meet collective needs, greater control of capital flows and multinational corporations, a reduction in working time, and a fairer international economic order favouring the global south. During the pivotal years following 1968, deeply marked by labour militancy, new social movements, economic crisis, and the unmaking of the 'postwar compromise', a window of opportunity opened in which European integration could have taken different roads. The defeat of 'social Europe' was a result of a decade-long social conflict which ended with the affirmation of a neoliberal Europe. Investigating this forgotten struggle and the reasons of its defeat can be useful not just to scholars and students eager to understand the historical evolution of European integration, the European Left, and European capitalism, but also to anyone interested in building alternative European and global futures.
