Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the Treaty of the European Union was ratified in 1993, the European Union has become an important factor in an ever-increasing number of regimes of pooled sovereignty. This Handbook seeks to present a valuable guide to this new and unique system in the twenty-first century, allowing readers to obtain a better understanding of the emerging multilevel European governance system that links national polities to Europe and the global community. Adopting a pan-European approach, this Handbook brings together the work of leading international academics to cover a wide range of topics such as: the historical and theoretical background the political systems and institutions of both the EU and its individual member nations political parties and party systems political elites civil society and social movements in European politics the political economy of Europe public administration and policy-making external policies of the EU. This is an invaluable and comprehensive resource for students, scholars, researchers and practitioners of the European Union, European politics and comparative politics.

This book was released on 2017-03-16 with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume suggests new, theoretically informed approaches for historians and social scientists to engage with the policy of enlargement – across rounds and in all its diversity. It follows three approaches: first tracing Longue Durée developments; second, investigating enlargement Beyond the Road to Membership; and third, exploring the Entangled Exchanges and synergies between the EC/EU and its outside. It attempts to properly historicise the process of enlargement with contributions from historians, social scientists and a legal scholar exemplifying suggested approaches and theoretical reflections from the various disciplines.

This book was released on 2016-04-02 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Roy Jenkins brought great talent to Europe’s top job. He played a key role in re-launching European monetary integration, winning the right to attend the new global summits, and smoothing Greece’s path to EC membership. But he fell short of other targets. Commission reform remained elusive, as did an improvement of the UK’s troubled relationship with the EC. Indeed the row over Britain’s contribution to the EC budget, meant that Britain’s position in Europe was as difficult when he left Brussels as it had been when he arrived. This study will look at how Jenkins approached his role, identifying his priorities, examining his working methods, and exploring his rapport with the European and international statesmen with whom he had to work. In the process, the book will shed light on the nature of the job, on Jenkins’ own talents and limitations, and on the European Community as it struggled with the global economic crisis of the 1970s.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The trajectories of pollution in global capitalism, from the toxic waste of early tanneries to the poisonous effects of pesticides in the twentieth century. Through the centuries, the march of economic progress has been accompanied by the spread of industrial pollution. As our capacities for production and our aptitude for consumption have increased, so have their byproducts—chemical contamination from fertilizers and pesticides, diesel emissions, oil spills, a vast “plastic continent” found floating in the ocean. The Contamination of the Earth offers a social and political history of industrial pollution, mapping its trajectories over three centuries, from the toxic wastes of early tanneries to the fossil fuel energy regime of the twentieth century. The authors describe how, from 1750 onward, in contrast to the early modern period, polluted water and air came to be seen as inevitable side effects of industrialization, which was universally regarded as beneficial. By the nineteenth century, pollutants became constituent elements of modernity. The authors trace the evolution of these various pollutions, and describe the ways in which they were simultaneously denounced and permitted. The twentieth century saw new and massive scales of pollution: chemicals that resisted biodegradation, including napalm and other defoliants used as weapons of war; the ascendancy of oil; and a lifestyle defined by consumption. In the 1970s, pollution became a political issue, but efforts—local, national, and global—to regulate it often fell short. Viewing the history of pollution though a political lens, the authors also offer lessons for the future of the industrial world.

Download or read book Building a European Identity written by Aurélie Élisa Gfeller and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2012-07-01 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Arab-Israeli war of 1973, the first oil price shock, and France’s transition from Gaullist to centrist rule in 1974 coincided with the United States’ attempt to redefine transatlantic relations. As the author argues, this was an important moment in which the French political elite responded with an unprecedented effort to construct an internationally influential and internally cohesive European entity. Based on extensive multi-archival research, this study combines analysis of French policy making with an inquiry into the evolution of political language, highlighting the significance of the new concept of a political European identity.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Including several contributions from an international group of historians and experts of international relations, this book analyses the relationship between the United Nations and European integration. The book, which covers from 1945 to the present, is organised into three sections, each dedicated to a different phase of the integration process, during which EU-UN relations had a different character. The essays of the first section deal with the 1950s and 1960s and show the active part played by UN bodies in shaping the integration process. In the second part, covering the 1970s and 1980s, it is the European Community which is shown to have had a visible impact on the life and the decision-making process of several UN bodies. Finally, the third part of the book, on the post-Cold War years, describes a more complex situation, characterised by new geopolitical responsibilities of the European Union, but also by its deep internal transformations due to several treaty revisions and the enlargement to Eastern Europe. Thus, dynamics similar to those described in the first section return, with UN bodies shaping some of the internal rules of the EU, but these coexist with strengthened European activity in the United Nations, in some cases leading to real partnerships.

Download or read book International Organizations and Environmental Protection written by Wolfram Kaiser and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2016-12-01 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pollution, resource depletion, habitat management, and climate change are all issues that necessarily transcend national boundaries. Accordingly, they and other environmental concerns have been a particular focus for international organizations from before the First World War to the present day. This volume is the first to comprehensively explore the environmental activities of professional communities, NGOs, regional bodies, the United Nations, and other international organizations during the twentieth century. It follows their efforts to shape debates about environmental degradation, develop binding intergovernmental commitments, and—following the seminal 1972 Conference on the Human Environment—implement and enforce actual international policies.

This book was released on 2020-05-12 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the second half of the 1940s, when postwar reconstruction began in Italy, there were three notable driving forces of environmental change: the uncontrollable process of urban drift, fueled by considerable migratory flows from the countryside and southern regions toward the cities where large-scale productive activities were beginning to amass; unruly industrial development, which was tolerated since it was seen as the necessary tribute to be paid to progress and modernization; and mass consumption. In his fourth book, Federico Paolini presents a series of essays ranging from the uses of natural resources, to environmental problems caused by means of transport, to issues concerning environmental politics and the dynamics of the environment movement. Paolini concludes the book with a forecast about the environmental problems that will emerge in the public debate of the twenty-first century.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the current socio-cultural scenario, the implementation of the university reform aimed at boosting third-level education calls for meditation within the discipline of Architectural Technology (ICAR 12). This review must address the research topics and academic profiles of PhD courses in the Technological Area, also in terms of fostering actions consistent with European strategic lines for the promotion of a knowledge society. Research, innovation, creativity and design are the keywords of this scenario that PhD students and lecturers must bear in mind when considering three fields of study: environmental design and landscape, building production and construction and works and services strategic for the community. This book "Research among innovation, creativity and design" develops the topics addressed during the VII OSDOTTA workshop (the network of PhD courses in the field of Architectural Technology) held at the Mantua campus of Milan Polytechnic on 15th-16th-17th September 2011.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nel giro di pochi anni l'Unione Europea è stata sottoposta a sfide senza precedenti, ostacoli di dimensioni gigantesche ai quali è necessario dare risposte all'altezza della situazione. Viviamo in un tempo denso di incertezze, in cui assistiamo probabilmente alla fine degli equilibri stabiliti dopo la seconda guerra mondiale. Un crescente disordine caratterizza le relazioni tra le maggiori economie e le diverse aree del globo. Di fronte a questa situazione l'Europa appare come una nave in balia dei flutti e divisa di fronte a sfide senza precedenti, alle quali è necessario dare risposte all'altezza della situazione. La prima sfida riguarda la necessità per l'Europa di rilanciare un cammino di crescita economica sostenibile da troppi anni smarrito. La seconda riguarda il consolidamento della presenza internazionale dell'Unione Europea per competere con i principali attori, Stati Uniti e Cina in primis. Infine, la terza sfida riguarda il rafforzamento del processo di integrazione, ovvero la possibilità di sviluppare politiche comuni attraverso una difesa e una fiscalità condivise. Il rischio, altrimenti, è quello di un progressivo indebolimento del progetto di Unione Europea, fino ad arrivare a rimettere in discussione il suo futuro. Ma siamo ancora in tempo per invertire la rotta? E come possiamo uscire dalla tempesta?

Download or read book Le sfide della transizione ecologica written by Edo Ronchi and published by Edizioni Piemme. This book was released on 2021-04-20 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Non c'è negazionismo che tenga: la crisi climatica è inesorabile e minaccia l'umanità, prima ancora che il pianeta. Se si è arrivati a questo punto è perché le politiche per contrastare il riscaldamento globale sono state inefficaci, nonostante la sempre più diffusa sensibilità green. Oggi, finalmente, si parla di "transizione ecologica": in questo libro di Edo Ronchi, fra i principali esponenti dell'ambientalismo in Italia, c'è tutto quello che bisogna sapere per passare dalle parole ai fatti. Sostegno alle energie rinnovabili, carbon tax, rigenerazione urbana, economia circolare, ripensamento del sistema produttivo, dei trasporti e del sistema agroalimentare: Ronchi passa in rassegna con passione e chiarezza cristallina tutte le armi a nostra disposizione per vincere la battaglia più importante per il nostro futuro. Come ci ricordano Greta Thunberg e i ragazzi di Fridays for future, per una riconversione economica a basse emissioni di CO2 è necessario un massiccio Green New Deal, che concili ambiente ed equità e riesca dunque ad affrontare insieme crisi climatica e crisi sociale. Non a caso, nel Next Generation EU, il programma europeo per la ripresa dalla crisi pandemica dovuta al Covid-19, la transizione ecologica è messa al primo posto. Le sfide della transizione ecologica è un appello ad attivarsi per una politica e un'economia completamente nuove: non basta cambiare i comportamenti individuali, dobbiamo cambiare un intero sistema sociale ed è tempo di reclamarlo con forza.

Download or read book Les trajectoires de l'innovation technologique et la construction européenne written by Christophe Bouneau and published by Peter Lang. This book was released on 2010 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Le processus d'intégration européenne a été interconnecté avec science et technologie seulement apparemment au cours de la dernière décennie. Au contraire, dès les années 1950 les États membres de la CEE et ses potentiels candidats ont été engagés dans différents projets et tentatives de coopération dans les secteurs de la science et la technologie. Les gouvernements nationaux non seulement choisirent la voie intergouvernementale, mais ils essayèrent de profiter du cadre communautaire. Ces tentatives ont produit d'autres projets débattus au niveau de la CEE sur la standardisation de l'automobile ou sur l'énergie nucléaire et les solutions à crise pétrolière, la coopération européenne a été expérimentée avec succès dans d'autres secteurs mais non seulement dans le « berceau » communautaire, tels que l'aéronautique ou les réseaux électriques. Ces expériences et débats sur la construction européenne techno-scientifique ont été confrontés à la compétition transatlantique, et même à celle intra-européenne. En tous cas, comme les plus récents développements semblent prouver, l'Union européenne est destinée à jouer un rôle d'innovateur technologique. Grâce à une approche historique transnationale et interdisciplinaire, serions-nous capables de suggérer quel rôle, et selon quelles trajectoires ? Ostensibly the European integration process has been interconnected with science and technology only in the last decade. On the other hand, since the 1950s EEC member states and would-be members have been engaged in several projects and attempts to cooperate in science and technology. National governments not only chose the intergovernmental way, but also they tried to take advantage of the communitarian framework. These attempts produced some successes inside the EEC including the European Commission's framework programme. Appart from some projects discussed at EEC level on automobile standardisation, nuclear energy and supplies during oil crisis, European cooperation in aircraft or electric power was successfully experimented but outside the communitarian networks. These experiences and debates on a European techno-scientific construction encountered competition from across the Atlantic as well as within Europe. As the most recent developments seem to prove, the European Union has to play a role of technological innovator. Thanks to a transnational and interdisciplinary historical approach, are we able to suggest which role, and by which trends?
