Um diese Fragestellung zu beantworten, wird als erstes der Begriff „politische Partizipation“ im Zusammenhang mit „Demokratie“ genauer erläutert, dem folgend geht es um die Frage, warum und wieso seit einigen Jahrzehnten ein Rückgang der Wahlbeteiligung erkennbar ist und wie man diesem Trend entgegenwirken kann. Dazu werden Studien herangezogen, die dieses Phänomen empirisch darstellen. Hierbei wird auch ein Einblick in das Phänomen, dass dies besonders bei jungen Menschen zu beobachten ist, dargestellt. Abschließend werden Maßnahmen/Empfehlungen vorgestellt, die dem Trend der sinkenden Wahlbeteiligung entgegenwirken können.

This book was released on 2001-01-31 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Der sechste Band der Buchreihe "Blickpunkt Gesellschaft" befaßt sich mit dem Thema "Politische Partizipation". Auf der Grundlage der Allgemeinen Bevölkerungsumfrage der Sozialwissenschaften (ALLBUS) 1998 wird in den Beiträgen des Bandes ein breites Spektrum unterschiedlicher Formen politischer Beteiligung analysiert: von der Teilnahme an Wahlen über parteibezogene Partizipation und politisches Protestverhalten bis zu gewalttätigen politischen Handlungen. Verschiedene theoretische Modelle zur Erklärung politischer Partizipation werden dabei herangezogen. Daneben wird in einzelnen Beiträgen gezielt die Rolle spezifischer Determinanten politischer Beteiligung - wie z.B. der Mediennutzung - untersucht. Wie läßt sich die Beteiligung an Wahlen erklären, wenn doch die eigene Stimme kaum einen Einfluß auf den Wahlausgang hat? Was sind die Ursachen für das geringere politische Engagement von Frauen im Vergleich zu Männern? Welche Rolle spielt die Mitgliedschaft in Organisationen und Vereinen für das politische Teilnahmeverhalten? Diese und weitere Fragen werden in dem vorliegenden Buch behandelt.

Download or read book Embracing Democracy in Modern Germany written by Michael L. Hughes and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2021-01-14 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Across the modern era, the traditional stereotype of Germans as authoritarian and subservient has faded, as they have become (mostly) model democrats. This book, for the first time, examines 130 years of history to comprehensively address the central questions of German democratization: How and why did this process occur? What has democracy meant to various Germans? And how stable is their, or indeed anyone's, democracy? Looking at six German regimes across thirteen decades, this study enables you to see how and why some Germans have always chosen to be politically active (even under dictatorships); the enormous range of conceptions of political culture and democracy they have held; and how interactions among various factors undercut or facilitated democracy at different times. Michael L. Hughes also makes clear that recent surges of support for 'populism' and 'authoritarianism' have not come out of nowhere but are inherent in long-standing contestations about democracy and political citizenship. Hughes argues that democracy – in Germany or elsewhere – cannot be a story of adversity overcome which culminates in a happy ending; it is an ongoing, open-ended process whose ultimate outcome remains uncertain.
Download or read book Youth Transitions written by René Bendit and published by Verlag Barbara Budrich. This book was released on 2008-11-19 with total page 379 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Youth and the future What will become of today ́s young people in Australia, Asia, Europe, Latin America and North America? Will they be supportive of the world they live in? Or are they doomed to be criminal drop-outs? The authors investigate to which extent different and contradictory trends of social modernisation and economic progress determine the biographical development and social integration of young people in different countries and world regions. Thus, the authors look at the role young people themselves can play in the future; either as construc tive social actors or as a problematic - and partly excluded - group unable to face the challenges of a permanently changing world.

Download or read book Political Participation in France and Germany written by Oscar W Gabriel and published by ECPR Press. This book was released on 2013-07-01 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How do France and Germany compare in the world of participatory political communities? This volume sets out an impressive historical, theoretical and institutional framework for a comprehensive, comparative and empirical analysis of the forms, patterns, trends and determinants of citizen participation in two of Europe's largest democracies. Written by an international team of political scientists, it starts with an outline of the participatory traditions in both countries before turning to the theoretical foundations of empirical research regarding the role of political participation in modern democracies. It provides an overview of how the perception of political participation has changed over the years and the forms of both conventional participation, particularly with regard to electoral participation, and unconventional participation like protest and other new forms of citizen involvement are analysed in detail. Exploring new approaches in participation research, social participation is seen as not just correlating with political participation, but as a specific form of civic engagement in itself. A broad range of activities, such as electoral and party related participation, political protest, participation in voluntary associations, voting in referenda and taking part in dialogue-orientated participatory activities is examined and the analysis identifies which societal, institutional and cultural factors account for the differences and similarities between the two countries.

Download or read book Community Energy in Germany written by Jörg Radtke and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-05-31 with total page 742 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this ground-breaking book, Jörg Radtke offers for the first time within research, a comprehensive insight into the range of organizational structures of community energy projects in Germany and their contribution to the Energiewende. Based on nationwide quantitative survey data and in-depth analyses of selected case studies of solar, wind and geothermal projects, Radtke documents the social structure and motivations of participating citizens. He examines new forms of material participation, community building and co-determination within the mostly volunteer-led community energy projects based on the civic engagement patterns of active “green citizens”. The author identifies a new form of individualistic participation and collective modes of action in line with new types of project-oriented participation between business, politics and civil society within sustainability transformation processes of the early 21st century.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book develops and tests a typology of local state-society relations. To deliver such a comparative study on institutionalized relations between local government and societal actors at the municipal level in Europe, the book identifies and classifies country-specific patterns of these institutionalized governance networks. This work explores the diversity within these institutionalized networks, approaching it from a strong comparative perspective that is anchored on a new typology allowing a more robust analysis of the identifiable patterns. It is a study with appeal to scholars and students of local government, public administration and political science as well as to those pursuing this debate and implementing similar agendas as practitioners.
Download or read book Gender and Protest written by Frank Jacob and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2023-09-05 with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For centuries women and other “gendered minorities” had to protest to gain equality. Their demands were often matched by counter-protest from conservative forces within historical societies that intended to return to “old orders” or “good old times.” The present volume will take a closer look at the interrelationship between gender and protest and analyze in detail how gender-related perspectives stimulated protests and initiated historical changes. Through historical case studies that range from antiquity until modern times, specialists from different countries and disciplines discuss reasons for protest, gender as a factor that stimulated social conflicts, and the power of gendered protests of the past with regards to their impact and long-term impact until today.

Download or read book Muslim Active Citizenship in the West written by Mario Peucker and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-04-03 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Muslim Active Citizenship in the West investigates the emergence and nature of Muslims’ struggle for recognition as full members of society in Australia, Great Britain and Germany. What actions have been taken by Muslims to achieve equal civic standing? How do socio-political and socio-economic factors impact on these processes? And how do Muslims negotiate their place in a society that is often regarded as sceptical – if not hostile – towards Muslims’ desire to belong? This book sheds new light on Muslims’ path towards citizenship in Australia, Great Britain and Germany. Existing research and statistics on Muslims’ socio-economic status, community formation, claim-making and political responses, and the public portrayal of Islam are systematically examined. These insights are tested ‘through the eyes of Muslims’, based on in-depth interviews with Muslim community leaders and other experts in all three countries. The findings offer unique perspectives on Muslim resilience to be recognised as equal citizens of Islamic faith in very different socio-political national settings. Pursuing an interdisciplinary and comparative approach, this book examines the country-specific interplay of historical, institutional, political, and identity dimensions of Muslims’ active citizenship and will be invaluable for students and researchers with an interest in Sociology, Religious Studies and Political Science.
