Book Description
Wie geht man mit Parteien um, die danach trachten, fundamentale demokratische Grundsätze abzuschaffen? Besonders virulent wird diese Frage, wenn solche Parteien in Volksvertretungen einziehen. Auf der Grundlage einer intensiven Auswertung vorliegenden Quellenmaterials gewährt diese Untersuchung einen tiefen Einblick in den Umgang etablierter Parteien mit der NPD im Sächsischen Landtag zwischen 2004 und 2009 sowie mit der BNP im Stadtrat von Barking and Dagenham zwischen 2006 und 2010. Dabei wird ein Bündel von Umgangsstrategien, die hinlänglich als etabliert gelten, analysiert und kritisch unter die Lupe genommen.

Island Rivers
Author: John R. Wagner
Publisher: ANU Press
ISBN: 1760462179
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 265
Book Description
Anthropologists have written a great deal about the coastal adaptations and seafaring traditions of Pacific Islanders, but have had much less to say about the significance of rivers for Pacific island culture, livelihood and identity. The authors of this collection seek to fill that gap in the ethnographic record by drawing attention to the deep historical attachments of island communities to rivers, and the ways in which those attachments are changing in response to various forms of economic development and social change. In addition to making a unique contribution to Pacific island ethnography, the authors of this volume speak to a global set of issues of immense importance to a world in which water scarcity, conflict, pollution and the degradation of riparian environments afflict growing numbers of people. Several authors take a political ecology approach to their topic, but the emphasis here is less on hydro-politics than on the cultural meaning of rivers to the communities we describe. How has the cultural significance of rivers shifted as a result of colonisation, development and nation-building? How do people whose identities are fundamentally rooted in their relationship to a particular river renegotiate that relationship when the river is dammed to generate hydro-power or polluted by mining activities? How do blockages in the flow of rivers and underground springs interrupt the intergenerational transmission of local ecological knowledge and hence the ability of local communities to construct collective identities rooted in a sense of place?

Islamophobia in the West
Author: Marc Helbling
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1136900799
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 269
Book Description
Since the late 1980s, growing migration from countries with a Muslim cultural background, and increasing Islamic fundamentalism related to terrorist attacks in Western Europe and the US, have created a new research field investigating the way states and ordinary citizens react to these new phenomena. However, whilst we already know much about how Islam finds its place in Western Europe and North America, and how states react to Muslim migration, we know surprisingly little about the attitudes of ordinary citizens towards Muslim migrants and Islam. Islamophobia has only recently started to be addressed by social scientists. With contributions by leading researchers from many countries in Western Europe and North America, this book brings a new, transatlantic perspective to this growing field and establishes an important basis for further research in the area. It addresses several essential questions about Islamophobia, including: what exactly is Islamophobia and how can we measure it? how is it related to similar social phenomena, such as xenophobia? how widespread are Islamophobic attitudes, and how can they be explained? how are Muslims different from other outgroups and what role does terrorism and 9/11 play? Islamophobia in the West will be of interest to students and scholars of sociology, religious studies, social psychology, political science, ethnology, and legal science.

Why Muslim Integration Fails in Christian-Heritage Societies
Author: Claire L. Adida
Publisher: Harvard University Press
ISBN: 0674504925
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 283
Book Description
Amid mounting fears of violent Islamic extremism, many Europeans ask whether Muslim immigrants can integrate into historically Christian countries. In a groundbreaking ethnographic investigation of France’s Muslim migrant population, Why Muslim Integration Fails in Christian-Heritage Societies explores this complex question. The authors conclude that both Muslim and non-Muslim French must share responsibility for the slow progress of Muslim integration. “Using a variety of resources, research methods, and an innovative experimental design, the authors contend that while there is no doubt that prejudice and discrimination against Muslims exist, it is also true that some Muslim actions and cultural traits may, at times, complicate their full integration into their chosen domiciles. This book is timely (more so in the context of the current Syrian refugee crisis), its insights keen and astute, the empirical evidence meticulous and persuasive, and the policy recommendations reasonable and relevant.” —A. Ahmad, Choice

Grounds for Difference
Author: Rogers Brubaker
Publisher: Harvard University Press
ISBN: 0674743962
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 236
Book Description
Offering fresh perspectives on perennial questions of ethnicity, race, nationalism, and religion, Rogers Brubaker makes manifest the forces that shape the politics of diversity and multiculturalism today. In a lucid and wide-ranging analysis, he contends that three recent developments have altered the stakes and the contours of the politics of difference: the return of inequality as a central public concern, the return of biology as an asserted basis of racial and ethnic difference, and the return of religion as a key terrain of public contestation. “Grounds for Difference is a subtle, original, and comprehensive book. All the hallmarks of Brubaker’s earlier work, such as the conceptual clarity, the theoretical rigor—grounded in a well-researched and well-informed analysis—the crisp writing style, and the impeccable sociological reasoning are displayed here. There is a wealth of original ideas developed in this book that requires much careful reading and unpacking.” —Sinisa Malešević, H-Net Reviews “This is an imposing collection that will be another milestone in the literature of ethnicity and nationalism.” —Christian Joppke, University of Bern
