Book excerpt: Das Buch "ABC der Demokratie - Demokratie-Erziehung für Kinder vom Kindergarten bis zur 6. Klasse" ist ein einzigartiges erzieherisches Konzept, das vom Adam Institut entwickelt wurde, um Kinder mit den Grundbegriffen der Demokratie und deren Umsetzungsweisen vertraut zu machen. Das Buch richtet sich an Kinder vom Kindergartenalter bis zur 6. Klasse und auch ein Leitfaden für Pädagogen, Erzieher und Lehrer. Das Konzept beruht auf einer humanistischen und pluralistischen Erziehung, die Demokratie-Erziehung mit einem kreativen Lernprozess koppelt. Der Lernprozess erfolgt im Rahmen von so genannten Aktivitäten, die Workshops gleichen und bei denen verschiedene Mittel - Literatur, Schauspiel, Musik, Spiele, Malen und Basteln - eingesetzt werden. Die Gedankenwelt der Kinder soll erweitert und gefördert werden, damit sie zu aktiven Partnern einer demokratischen Lebensauffassung werden. Um die demokratische Idee zu verstehen und zu verinnerlichen, wurden Themen wie Gleichberechtigung, Unterschiedlichkeit, Beziehung zwischen Mehrheit und Minderheit, Rechte und das Wesen eines fairen Vertrages, Konfliktlösungen und die Frage, was Gesetze sind, in einfache Begriffe übertragen, die für die Welt eines Kindes, d.h. für es selbst und für sein gesamtes Lebensumfeld, von Bedeutung sind.
Download or read book Beyond Liberalism and Communism written by Michael Brie and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-06-21 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Beyond Liberalism and Communism: Socialist Theory and the Chinese Case presents a new conceptual framework of socialism and applies it to the study of socialist development in China, shedding new light on modern China and signposting novel directions in socialist thought. Based on a Marxian-Polanyian approach, the book develops a new conceptual framework of socialism by taking the liberal and the communist challenges seriously. In doing so, Brie develops a liberal and a communist formula of socialism based upon two owners of socialist property (the individuals and the society), different forms of possession (public, common, associative, and individual) meditating the interests of the two opposite owners, and democracy as an expression of the will of the many and of all together in common. This formula is then applied to socialist development in China, analysing its booming centrally directed economy and the political ways to safeguard democracy as the rule of, for, and by the people under the Chinese Communist Party. With an analysis of the means by which China has pursued a unique form of socialist development, Beyond Liberalism and Communism: Socialist Theory and the Chinese Case will appeal to scholars of modern China, political theory, political sociology, and socialist thought.

Download or read book Direct Democracy in Switzerland written by Gregory A. Fossedal and published by Transaction Publishers. This book was released on with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Only one country in the world--Switzerland--is a direct democracy, in which, to an extent, the people pass their own laws, judge the constitutionality of statutes, and even have written, in effect, their own constitution. In this propitious volume, Gregory Fossedal reports on the politics and social fabric of what James Bryce has called "the nation that has taken the democratic idea to its furthest extent." The lessons Fossedal presents, at a time of dissatisfaction with the role of money and privileged elites in many Western democracies, are at once timely and urgent. In Direct Democracy in Switzerland, Fossedal has developed a shrewd, sensitive overview of Switzerland's high notion of statecraft. He details the reasons for studying Switzerland's distinctive institutions, and explores the origins and development of the ancient Swiss democracy, which reaches back a thousand years. He shows how Switzerland handles the political questions common to all modern societies, such as education, taxes, crime, welfare, the Holocaust. He concludes with the ongoing debate over two very different visions of democracy, direct versus representative. Paolo Dardenelli in Regional and Federal Studies described the book in its cloth edition as offering "many valuable insights into Swiss political life and written in a light, refreshing journalistic style." Amity Shlaes of the Financial Times commented that "Fossedal shines a brilliant spotlight on a form of governancewith lessons for the rest of us. His review of the referendum process there is required reading for lawmakers, political consultants and voters." Gregory A. Fossedal is chairman of the Alexis de Tocqueville Institution, a research foundation based near Washington, DC. He is also president and chief investment officer of the Democratic Century Fund and its management company, the Emerging Markets Group. He is author of The Democratic Imperative. Alfred R. Berkeley III is president of the Nasdaq stock market.

Download or read book Make Capitalism History written by Simon Sutterlütti and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-01-01 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open access book presents an alternative to capitalism and state socialism through the modelling of a post-market and post-state utopia based on an upscaling of the commons, feminist political economy and democratic and council-based planning approaches. It discusses the left’s need to explore non-capitalist modes of production, the inability of green or socialist market economies to produce real social and ecological change, and the need to look beyond traditional ideas of reform and revolution. The book discusses how a socio-economic organisation beyond money, wage labour, patriarchal division of work and centralised state planning may look like. It develops an approach to societal transformation based on seed forms of commons practices and social movements. This book will be relevant to activists, students and researchers interested in fundamental social change, political economy and feminist and Marxist economics. This is an open access book.
Download or read book Assassins and Conspirators written by Elun Gabriel and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2014-02-28 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the course of the German Empire the Social Democrats went from being a vilified and persecuted minority to becoming the largest party in the Reichstag, enjoying broad-based support. But this was not always the case. In the 1870s, government mouthpieces branded Social Democracy the "party of assassins and conspirators" and sought to excite popular fury against it. Over time, Social Democrats managed to refashion their public image in large part by contrasting themselves to anarchists, who came to represent a politics that went far beyond the boundaries of acceptable behavior. Social Democrats emphasized their overall commitment to peaceful change through parliamentary participation and a willingness to engage their political rivals. They condemned anarchist behavior—terrorism and other political violence specifically—and distanced themselves from the alleged anarchist personal characteristics of rashness, emotionalism, cowardice, and secrecy. Repeated public debate about the appropriate place of Socialism in German society, and its relationship to anarchist terrorism, helped Socialists and others, such as liberals, political Catholics, and national minorities, cement the principles of legal equality and a vigorous public sphere in German political culture. Using a diverse array of primary sources from newspapers and political pamphlets to Reichstag speeches to police reports on anarchist and socialist activity, this book sets the history of Social Democracy within the context of public political debate about democracy, the rule of law, and the appropriate use of state power. Gabriel also places the history of German anarchism in the larger contexts of German history and the history of European socialism, where its importance has often been understated because of the movement's small size and failure to create a long-term mass movement.
