Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La pandémie de Covid-19 a été un révélateur des rigidités ou des souplesses d'adaptation des systèmes politiques et des architectures institutionnelles en vigueur dans chaque pays. Les défaillances des systèmes de santé et de l'accompagnement de la vieillesse ont été révélées dans la plupart des cas avec un bilan humain lourd. La pandémie a jeté aussi une lumière crue sur le degré et le type de confiance que portent les citoyens à leur gouvernement. Et la pandémie bouleversa le monde compare les politiques publiques déployées dans 12 pays, lors des premières vagues de la pandémie, dans un contexte d'incertitude radicale, avant l'arrivée des vaccins. Les 12 pays analysés sont : • Trois milliardaires et un néofasciste face à la pandémie : le Brésil, les États-Unis, la République tchèque, le Chili ; • Les autocraties réussissent-elle mieux les politiques contre à la pandémie : La Turquie, le Maroc, le Cameroun, la Russie ; • Les avantages et les coûts des pouvoirs déconcentrés : la Belgique, l'Italie, le Japon, la Suède Les articles réunis dans cet ouvrage, rédigés par des chercheurs résidant dans les pays étudiés, décrivent comment les politiques publiques ont été conduites à naviguer à vue et assumer, parfois publiquement mais souvent par omission, des retournements successifs au fil de l'évolution de la pandémie. Ils éclairent l'impact du type d'organisation politique du pays et des relations entre l'État et les citoyens sur les types de politique adopté et leur efficacité. Et au-delà, ils analysent la pandémie comme un fait social total dans lequel s'enchevêtrent plusieurs crises et mutations sociales. Ils révèlent justement comment la pandémie de Covid-19 a été, notamment lors des premières vagues et sous l'effet de la surprise, un puissant analyseur des sociétés contemporaines.
Download or read book Multilateralism Past Present and Future written by Mario Telò and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-05-31 with total page 443 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers an important chronological perspective on the evolution of multilateralism within Europe and beyond. It provides a critical reconstruction of the history of the idea and praxis of peaceful global governance, a comparative analysis of regional multilateral organisations and a discussion about concrete trends and perspectives of a new multilateralism against the challenging context of the current multipolar power politics. Focusing on the changing European interplay with multilateralism – from Eurocentric cradle of civilian cooperation among sovereign imperial states, to political dwarf after the two world wars and decolonisation, and to potential co-leader of a multilayered and multi-actor cooperation within the current multipolar order, it addresses a theoretical “gap” by fuelling the long-recognised idealism v. realism debate over international cooperation and institutionalisation with both historical and new empirical insights. This book will be of key interest to scholars and students of European studies, global governance, multilateralism, international organisations and more broadly international relations.
Download or read book Elections and Earthquakes Quo Vadis Turkey written by Nikos Christofis and published by Transnational Press London. This book was released on 2024-02-07 with total page 227 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Where does Recep Tayyip Erdoğan’s resilience derive from? Why did he, and the AKP, win the double May 2023 elections again? How did the opposition perform? What were the opposition’s mistakes? How will domestic and foreign policy issues unfold after the elections? These are just a few of the questions the present collection tries to answer. Demonstrating how Turkey’s politics have developed the present volume brings together approaches from politics, sociology, and history, and sheds much-needed light on these crucial questions. They offer scholars and non-specialists alike a comprehensive overview of the implications of the recent elections in almost every aspect of Turkish society. Finally, the chapters that are hosted here provide informed deliberations about Turkey’s future. "This collective volume sheds new light on the durability of the Erdoğan regime despite the heavy crises Turkey is going through, and more importantly, shows the limits of an opposition that is unable to propose a democratic transformation of the country, to become a credible alternative to it." - Prof. Hamit Bozarslan, EHESS, Paris This timely collection features some of the sharpest voices in and on Turkey today, packaged in short, digestible chapters. Coverage includes the role of ideology, incumbent and opposition alliances, the economy, devastating earthquakes, minorities, youth, and relations with external actors like Greece and the European Union. The book will help students and experts alike to make sense of the multi-faceted causes and consequences of a milestone in Turkey's trajectory: 2023 elections and their implications for the country, its region, and the world. - Assoc.

Download or read book Populism written by Chiara Chini and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2018-10-09 with total page 189 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Populism is a category which is often abused in current public discourse. It is an issue that is usually looked at from the perspective of political science or cultural studies, while historians have rarely confronted it. Nonetheless, the study of historical cases of populism is a necessary preliminary task for an in-depth examination of the topic. This book opens up a channel of dialogue among political scientists, sociologists, philosophers and historians in order to launch a debate on the declination of the populist phenomenon. The essays here consist of the reflections of various scholars on several national cases through a survey conducted on a large temporal and spatial horizon, from the experiences developed in Eastern Europe at the end of the nineteenth century to the more recent events of Ukraine’s revolution at the end of the twentieth; and from the first case of a populist party in the US to the examples of the Italian political scenario in the 1980s, in order to identify which historical perspective would be the most suitable for understanding populism and if populism can actually be considered a category that fits into the historical investigation of these phenomena.
Download or read book Experimental Film and Anthropology written by Arnd Schneider and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2014-06-19 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Experimental Film and Anthropology urges a new dialogue between two seemingly separate fields. The book explores the practical and theoretical challenges arising from experimental film for anthropology, and vice versa, through a number of contact zones: trance, emotions and the senses, materiality and time, non-narrative content and montage. Experimental film and cinema are understood in this book as broad, inclusive categories covering many technical formats and historical traditions, to investigate the potential for new common practices. An international range of renowned anthropologists, film scholars and experimental film-makers engage in vibrant discussion and offer important new insights for all students and scholars involved in producing their own films. This is indispensable reading for students and scholars in a range of disciplines including anthropology, visual anthropology, visual culture and film and media studies.

Download or read book The Far Right and the Environment written by Bernhard Forchtner and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-09-10 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At the beginning of the twenty-first century, both the crisis of liberal democracy, as visible in, for example, the rise of far-right actors in Europe and the United States, and environmental crises, from declining biodiversity to climate change, are increasingly in the public spotlight. Whilst both areas have been analysed extensively on their own, The Far Right and the Environment: Politics, Discourse and Communication provides much needed insights into their intersection by illuminating the environmental communication of far-right party and non-party actors in Europe and the United States. Although commonly perceived as a ‘left-wing’ issue today, concerns over the natural environment by the far right have a long, ideology-driven history. Thus, it is not surprising that some members of the far right offer distinctive ecological visions of communal life, though, for example, climate-change scepticism is voiced too. Investigating this range of stances within their discourse about the natural environment provides a window into the wider politics of the far right and points to a close connection between the politics of identity and the imagination of nature. Connecting the fields of environmental communication and study of the far right, contributions to this edited volume therefore offer timely assessments of this often-overlooked dimension of far-right politics.

Download or read book Contemporary Art and Anthropology written by Arnd Schneider and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-09-02 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Contemporary Art and Anthropology takes a new and exciting approach to representational practices within contemporary art and anthropology. Traditionally, the anthropology of art has tended to focus on the interpretation of tribal artifacts but has not considered the impact such art could have on its own ways of making and presenting work. The potential for the contemporary art scene to suggest innovative representational practices has been similarly ignored. This book challenges the reluctance that exists within anthropology to pursue alternative strategies of research, creation and exhibition, and argues that contemporary artists and anthropologists have much to learn from each others' practices. The contributors to this pioneering book consider the work of artists such as Susan Hiller, Francesco Clemente and Rimer Cardillo, and in exploring topics such as the possibility of shared representational values, aesthetics and modernity, and tattooing, they suggest productive new directions for practices in both fields.
Download or read book Party Members and Activists written by Emilie van Haute and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-04-24 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Membership of political parties is diverse. Not everyone participates and those who do, do not participate in the same way. This book engages with the debate over the significance and future of political parties as membership organisations and presents the first broad comparative analysis of party membership and activism. It is based on membership surveys which have been administered, gathered and collated by a group of prominent party scholars from across Europe, Canada and Israel. Utilizing this rich data source together with the insights of party scholars, the book investigates what party membership means in advanced industrial democracies. In doing so, it provides a clearer picture of who joins political parties, why they do it, the character of their political activism, how they engage with their parties, and what opinions they hold. This text will be of interest to scholars and students of comparative politics, particularly to those interested in representation, participation, political parties and elections.

Download or read book Populism and the Crisis of Democracy written by Gregor Fitzi and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-09-30 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The contributions to this volume Migration, Gender and Religion bring together empirically grounded and theoretically sophisticated case studies of populist responses to what are perceived to be the threats to national survival and sovereignty from 'uncontrolled' immigration. The demographic context - declining fertility rates and ageing populations - promotes the belief that high Muslim fertility rates are material evidence of an Islamic threat to the West, to national cohesion and particularly to the safety and dignity of the women of the host community. Consequently, gender plays an important part in populist ideology, but populist attitudes to gender are often contradictory. Populist movements are often marked by misogyny and by policies that are typically anti-feminist in rejecting gender equality. The traditional family with a dominant father and submissive mother is promoted as the basis of national values and the remedy against social decline. The obsession with women in the public domain points to a crisis of masculinity associated with unemployment, the impact of austerity packages on social status, and the growth of pink collar employment. Inevitably, religion is drawn into these political debates about the future of Western societies, because religion in general has seen the family and mothers as essential for the reproduction of religion. Christendom has been identified by populists as providing the ultimate defence of the borders of European civilisation against Islam, despite the fact that church leaders have often defended and welcomed outsiders in terms of Christian charity. Once more Christian Europe is the Abendland standing in defiance of a threatening and subversive Morgenland. This volume will be an invaluable reference for students and scholars in the field of political theory, political sociology and European Studies.
