        Using Europe: territorial party strategies in a multi-level system

        by Eve Hepburn

        This book explores how regional political parties use Europe to advance their territorial projects in times of rapid state restructuring. It examines the ways in which decentralization and supranational integration have encouraged regional parties to pursue their strategies across multiple territorial levels. This book constitutes the first attempt to unravel the complexities of how nationalist and statewide parties manoeuvre around the twin issues of European integration and decentralization, and exploit the shifting linkages within multi-level political systems. In a detailed comparative examination of three cases - Scotland, Bavaria and Sardinia - over a thirty-year period, the book explores how integration has altered the nature of territorial party competition and identifies the limits of Europe for territorial projects. In addressing these issues, this work moves beyond present scholarship on multi-level governance to explain the diversity of regional responses to Europe. By providing important new insights and empirical research on the conduct of territorial party politics, and an innovative model of territorial mobilization in Europe, this book will be of great interest to students and scholars of comparative politics, European studies, regionalism and federalism, political parties and devolution. ;

        Mensch ohne Welt

        Eine Soziologie spätmoderner Vergesellschaftung

        by Alexandra Schauer

        »Die Menschen können sich heute eher ein Ende der Welt als ein Ende des Kapitalismus vorstellen«, lautet ein oft zitierter Befund. Alexandra Schauer geht dieser spätmodernen Malaise in ihrem überaus materialreichen Buch auf den Grund. In drei historischen Rekonstruktionsbewegungen zeigt sie am Wandel der Zeiterfahrung, der Öffentlichkeit und der Stadt, wie es kam, dass die Welt als Ort wechselseitiger Verständigung und gemeinsamen Handelns an Bedeutung und die für die politische Moderne einst so zentrale Idee der Gestaltbarkeit von Gesellschaft an Strahlkraft eingebüßt hat. Das hat schwerwiegende Konsequenzen für das vergesellschaftete Individuum der Gegenwart, das sich in der von ihm hervorgebrachten Wirklichkeit nicht mehr aus- und wiedererkennt.

The third part is “dust has not fallen”: it is the author's reading notes, as well as the knowledge of literature and reading experience. The fourth part is “music and poetry”: the author's creative experience and writing process and his understanding of many years of writing career. Leaving Is a Return gives us a lot of insights in seemingly ordinary things. The author compares the layers of the mountain to the "staircase" and says "My soul will go to heaven by stepping on these ladders." The author turns his eyes to nature and whispers with the vast world. These beautiful words can let us comprehend the spiritual space of A Lai.

        Bordering social reproduction

        Migrant mothers and children making lives in the shadows

        by Rachel Rosen, Eve Dickson

        Bordering social reproduction explores what happens when migrants subject to policies that seek to deny them the means of life nonetheless endeavour to make and sustain meaningful lives. Developing innovative theorisations of welfare bordering, the volume provides rich ethnographic insights into the everyday lives of destitute mothers and children who are denied mainstream welfare support in the United Kingdom due to their immigration status. This book shows how enforced destitution and debt work alongside detention and deportation as part of a tripartite of exclusionary technologies of the racial state. It advances the novel concept of weathering to comprehend mother's and children's life-making practices under duress - arguing that these are neither acts of heroic resilience nor solely symptomatic of lives rendered disposable, but indications of the fragilities of repressive migration regimes and, on occasion, refusals to accept their terms of existence.
