Book Synopsis European Dimensions and the Secondary School Curriculum by : Ivor Goodson
Download or read book European Dimensions and the Secondary School Curriculum written by Ivor Goodson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-10-03 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1985. ‘Europe‘ and the EEC seemed to be virtually synonymous for the majority of our population and the ambivalent feelings many people have about the Community, together with the consistently bad press it received in the UK, seemed to engender a hostility in educational circles towards teaching about Europe as a whole. However, if one of the aims of education is to increase children’s awareness, tolerance and understanding of the world about them; to widen their experience and horizons; then teaching about the wider world must have a place in the curriculum. This book argues for education about Europe, not necessarily in favour of Europe, breaking down the national insularity of the UK curriculum and using Europe as one convenient ‘window on the wider world’.
Book Synopsis The History of Families and Households: Comparative European Dimensions by : Silvia Sovic
Download or read book The History of Families and Households: Comparative European Dimensions written by Silvia Sovic and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2015-11-30 with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The history of family and households has been the subject of intensive research for over a generation. In the 1970s Peter Laslett and others set the agenda with a strong emphasis on geographical differences between northern and southern, eastern and western Europe. Others have challenged this view, pioneering different approaches. This volume takes stock of the field, focussing particularly on family history in South-East Europe in comparison with the rest of Europe. The authors consider what European families have in common, their regional and local differences and changes over time, using the rich and fascinating variety of sources and methods used by family historians today. Contributors include: Guido Alfani, Judit Ambrus, Mirjana V. Bobić, Siegfried Gruber, Peter Guzowski, Violetta Hionidou, Daniela Lombardi, Beatrice Moring, Silvia Sovič, Pat Thane, Alice Velková, Marta Verginella, and Pier Paolo Viazzo.
Book Synopsis Dimensions of Evidence in European Civil Procedure by : Vesna Rijavec
Download or read book Dimensions of Evidence in European Civil Procedure written by Vesna Rijavec and published by Kluwer Law International B.V.. This book was released on 2015-12-29 with total page 450 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Greater efficiency in civil dispute resolution is very much dependent on organized but fair fact-finding. Under European law, however, no clear-cut categorisation of means of evidence exists as yet, and significantly diverging interpretations persist of what is considered 'evidence' in the sense of the foundational Council Regulation (EC) No. 1206/2001 (EER). The EER fails to provide comprehensive rules for many other aspects of evidence taking, pointing instead to national legislation for solutions. As long as evidentiary rules remain different from country to country, there is an inherent risk of conflict of laws between different systems in the course of cooperation between courts in cross-border matters, leading to mistrust amongst judiciary and other participants in the proceedings. Focusing on national rules, and using a comparative method which takes into consideration legal experiences from all legal circles in the EU, this book explains and analyses how the law of evidence works in Europe today. The authors draw on the vast base of relevant information collected in twenty-seven Member States by national reporters. Following the classical enumeration of types of evidence – production of documents, examination of witnesses, expert evidence, inspection by the judge, and examination of the parties – chapters encompass such issues and topics as the following. - judicial cooperation in cross-border cases; – general principles in evidence taking (the right to be heard, oral vs. written form, directness of evidence, burden of proof); – judges' case management powers regarding evidence; – means of evidence; – extent of influence of traditional principles and evidentiary rules on electronic evidence; – application of communication technology in cross-border proceedings; – legal costs; – language; – inadmissible evidence; and – instances in which a court can refuse a request for evidence. The authors offer well-grounded recommendations on requested judge's entitlements, direct and convenient communication, cost issues, revised provisions concerning language obstacles, unification of presumptions, and much more. Armed with the wide-ranging knowledge presented here, practitioners handling civil cases anywhere in Europe will derive great practical benefit from this book. As a masterful synthesis of how evidence is used in national courts in EU Member States, and of how that use is changing, the book will be greatly valued as a unique resource by legal scholars and academics. With featured recommendations it can contribute to the development of mutual trust among the national courts inside the EU as well as trust among policymakers and national courts.

Book Synopsis Uncovering the Territorial Dimension of European Union Cohesion Policy by : Eduardo Medeiros
Download or read book Uncovering the Territorial Dimension of European Union Cohesion Policy written by Eduardo Medeiros and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-14 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite the non-territorialised strategic goals of the EU 2020 Strategy, the long-term aim of EU Cohesion Policy to promote harmonious development of the European territory – social, economic, and ‘territorial cohesion’ – remains a central goal of achieving a more cohesive EU territory. This book examines the ‘territorial dimension’ of EU Cohesion Policy, specifically assessing territorial impacts at the various spatial levels, engaging theoretically and empirically with the notion and role of the ‘territorial dimension’ within a strongly fragmented EU policymaking process, and examining more generally EU Cohesion Policy, as the main driver of the EU territorial development process. It provides an updated and fresh theoretical discussion on the precise meaning of the ‘territorial dimension’ of policies and the relatively recent EU policy evaluation technique, known as ‘Territorial Impact Assessment’ (TIA). Assessing the history, relevance, efficiency and effectiveness of these procedures, it presents several empirical findings on the implementation of specific territorial-focus and place-based financial instruments, as part of the Territorial Agendas and the EU goal of achieving a more integrated, territorial approach. This text will be of key interest to scholars, students and practitioners of spatial planning and cohesion policy, European sector policies and European spatial planning, and more broadly to European and EU studies/politics, regional economic geography and public policy.

Book Synopsis The Sub-national Dimension of the EU by : Carlo Panara
Download or read book The Sub-national Dimension of the EU written by Carlo Panara and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-03-02 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the first monograph-form legal study on multilevel governance in the EU and represents a radical change in the approach to this topic. Particularly after the Treaty of Lisbon’s entry into force, research on multilevel governance can no longer remain confined to the analysis of political dynamics or of soft law arrangements. Multilevel governance emerges as a constitutional principle in the European constitutional space, envisaging a method of governance based on the strong involvement of sub-national authorities in the creation and implementation of EU law and policy. Its foundation is in the mosaic resulting from the constitutional systems of the Union and its Member States. Multilevel governance arrangements play a fundamental part in achieving key Treaty objectives (such as subsidiarity, respect for the national identities of the Member States including regional and local self-government, openness, and closeness to the citizen). These arrangements lend legitimacy to EU decision-making, while also promoting constitutionalism and democracy in the EU.
Book Synopsis Local Policies and the European Social Fund by : Zimmermann, Katharina
Download or read book Local Policies and the European Social Fund written by Zimmermann, Katharina and published by Policy Press. This book was released on 2019-10-02 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book reviews how local social and employment policy fields react to the European Social Fund (ESF) to determine the role of the ESF in local activation policies. Drawing on both sociology and political science literature on welfare state reforms, the author examines what shapes local policy reactions to ESF and what effects these reactions have on change in local policy fields. Comparing data from 18 local case studies across 6 European countries, and deploying an innovative mixed-method approach, the book presents comparative evidence on everyday challenges in the context of the ESF and discusses how these findings are applicable to other funding schemes.

Book Synopsis From welfare to well-being - Subjective dimensions of welfare by : Thorsten Wettich
Download or read book From welfare to well-being - Subjective dimensions of welfare written by Thorsten Wettich and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2008-03-07 with total page 15 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Essay from the year 2007 in the subject Cultural Studies - European Studies, grade: 1.0, Uppsala University, language: English, abstract: The welfare states are in transition. Numerous developments of social change take place at the same time. Focusing on the sphere of the individual, a trend towards demands for subjective well-being can be seen. The quality of life is determined by individual concepts of personal confidence through authenticity. In order to achieve authenticity a self-reflexive interaction with the spirit is needed. Spirituality takes place in a distinct personal sphere and focuses on internal matters. These internal matters are implemented into society on a second stage through personal relationships, but also general behaviour in society. The sections of influence of the subjective sphere on publicity and thereby welfare regimes are uncountable. A focus on spiritual needs in the context of a research on welfare in Europe could definitely enrich the study result.
Book Synopsis Global Health Informatics Education by : E.J.S. Hovenga
Download or read book Global Health Informatics Education written by E.J.S. Hovenga and published by IOS Press. This book was released on 2004-08-30 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Throughout the world, healthcare professionals often lack knowledge of the possibilities and limitations of systematically processing data, information and knowledge and of the resulting impact on quality decision-making. They are often asked to use information technologies of which they have limited appreciation, in order to enhance their practices through better use of information resources. However, for systematically processing data, information and knowledge in medicine and in healthcare, healthcare professionals who are well-trained in medical informatics or health informatics are needed. It will only be through improved education of healthcare professionals and through an increase in the number of well-trained workers in health and medical informatics that this lack of knowledge and associated skills can begin to be reversed. Although we can recognize further progress in educating health and a considerable number of educational programs for health informatics / medical informatics specialists have been set up, there is still a need to enhance these educational activities world wide, considering global developments as well as new curricular concepts and technological opportunities. IMIA and in particular its working group on health and medical informatics education is the leading international society stimulating such educational activities in various ways. This book is especially helpful for educators in the field of health / medical informatics.
