Sociale herovering in Amsterdam en Rotterdam
De samenleving heeft te maken met individualisering van burgers en schaalvergroting van veel (overheids-) organisaties. Dit kan vervreemding, criminaliteit en dergelijke in de hand werken, en ook in verband worden gebracht met een slechter functionerende democratie. De vraag is of die problemen van een afnemende sociale cohesie en een afnemend politiek vertrouwen (ook) op buurtniveau kunnen worden tegengegaan. Wat is daar aan initiatieven en beleid mogelijk om mensen de ruimte te geven zelf bij te dragen aan de aanpak van leefbaarheidsproblemen in hun directe omgeving? Welke bestuurlijke voorwaarden moeten daarvoor gecreëerd worden? En hoe duurzaam zijn die? Mede aan de hand van veldonderzoek naar 28 'good practices' laat de WRR zien wat we daarvan kunnen leren. Tegelijk met de verkenning zal het rapport Vertrouwen in de buurt worden gepubliceerd. Verwante titel: Burgers in de buurt., het jaarboek bij het tijdschrift Mens & Maatschappij

Punishment in Europe
This collection, from a range of leading international scholars, looks at penal practice in a variety of different European countries. Noting particularities as well as similarities, such as the overuse of imprisonment and the use of harsher sanctions against the poor, this book questions how we justify and deliver punishment in Europe.
Justice, Community and Civil Society
Over the last decade there has arisen considerable disquiet about the relationship between criminal justice and its publics. This has been expressed in a variety of different ways, ranging from a concern that state criminal justice has moved too far away from the concerns of ordinary people (become too distant, too out of touch, insufficiently reflective of different groups in society) to the belief that the police have been attending to the wrong priorities, that the state has failed to reduce crime, that people still feel a general sense of insecurity. Governments have sought to respond to these concerns throughout Europe and North America but the results have challenged people's deeply he...
Dynamic Entrepreneurship
Annotation. The nature of immigrant entrepreneurship is changing in Dutch society. Nowadays, many immigrant entrepreneurs start businesses in producer and personal services instead of more traditional sectors such as retail or hotel and catering. At the same time, a growing number of second-generation immigrants are setting up their own firms in the Netherlands. These second-generation immigrants-born and/or raised in the receiving country-are following different trajectories in comparison with first-generation immigrant entrepreneurs, indeed displaying a move away from traditional immigrant niches. Yet studies on second-generation immigrant entrepreneurs remain limited in both the Dutch and...
Smash the Pillars
Smash the Pillars builds on the efforts by scholars and activists to decolonize Dutch history and memory, as they resist the epistemological violence imposed by the state, its institutions, and dominant narratives. Contributions offer an unparalleled glimpse into decolonial activism in the Dutch kingdom and provide us with a new lens to view contemporary decolonial efforts. The book argues that to fully decolonize Dutch society, the current social organization in the Kingdom of the Netherlands relying on separate pillars for each religious and/or racial group, must be dismantled.
Lokale Integrationspolitik in der Einwanderungsgesellschaft
Für die ökonomische, soziale und kulturelle Integration von Migrantinnen und Migranten sind Städte und Gemeinden als Orte des alltäglichen Zusammenlebens von zentraler Bedeutung. Die Erkenntnis, dass die Bundesrepublik zu einer Einwanderungsgesellschaft geworden ist, die von gelingender Zuwanderung profitieren kann, hat auf der kommunalen Ebene früh eingesetzt. Was oft als pragmatisches Improvisieren begann, wurde inzwischen an vielen Orten zu integrationspolitischen Gesamtkonzepten weiterentwickelt, in die alle kommunalen Handlungsfelder einbezogen sind. Dieser Band bietet eine erste umfassende und problemorientierte Bestandsaufnahme der kommunalen Integrationspolitik in Deutschland sowie ihrer aktuellen Stärken und Problemzonen. Ihre Politikfelder, Themen und Akteure werden im Detail vorgestellt. Ein Blick auf internationale Erfahrungen erweitert den Möglichkeitshorizont. Die Beiträge dieser Veröffentlichung haben einen doppelten Anspruch. Sie informieren einerseits zuverlässig über den Stand der wissenschaftlichen Debatte und halten andererseits Reflexions- und Praxiswissen für die verschiedenen Akteure des Integrationsgeschehens bereit.
A Head with Wings

Using hand-made montages of photographs she took in Belize, Mexico, Egypt, Morocco and Berlin, Kruithof spins a hallucinatory yarn of anxiety and desire." --Publisher description.
