Radicalisation
Radicalisation is a conceptual investigation within Western liberal democratic societies that follows an analytical framework linking expertise theory to discourse analysis of publications from the academic, governmental, and non-governmental spheres, as well as a dozen interviews with experts in the field. The reader will come to understand the socio-political configurations that led to the emergence of radicalisation as an object of study. The book also identifies the historical tensions regarding models, definitions, and operationalisation of the concept of radicalisation in social sciences research. Finally, a new model explaining how the term radicalisation became the central conceptual...
Globalization and Children
ALLISON JAMES Globalization seems to be the word on everyone’s lips, with politicians as much as academics extolling its benefits as well as its contradictions. For some, globali- tion means, in practice, that whether in Bangkok or Boston, in London or Rio, as travelers from wealthy countries they can be sure to find the beer, the pizzas, and the jeans that they can at home; they can be both at home and away simulta- ously. For others, though, globalization has had rather different, often less bene- cial, consequences. In their everyday lives people have come to find themselves tied in, albeit in often unseen ways, into larger economic and political systems over which they have no control;...
Transnational Constitution Making
This book examines the largely neglected but crucial role of transnational actors in democratic constitution-making. The writing or rewriting of constitutions is usually a key moment in democratic transitions. But how exactly does this take place? Most contemporary comparative constitutional literature draws on the concept of constituent power – the power of the people – to address this moment. But what this overlooks, this book argues, is the important role of external, transnational actors who tend to play a crucial role in the process. Drawing on sociolegal methodologies but informed by new legal realism, this book develops a new theoretical framework for examining the involvement of ...

Les théories de la migration
Comment définir aujourd'hui la migration ? Quels sont les grands textes qui ont théorisé ce phénomène, devenu l'une des plus grandes constantes du temps présent ? Ce recueil rassemble les principaux textes fondateurs, parus essentiellement dans la seconde moitié du XXe siècle et qui se sont consacrés à ce domaine de la démographie. Ces textes ont non seulement marqué leur temps, mais continuent d'être cités, analysés, voire controversés, des années après leur parution. Ils représentent des avancées notables dans la réflexion et le raisonnement démographique, non seulement par la valeur de leur témoignage, mais aussi par la richesse des cadres d'analyses et des concepts qu'ils offrent à la discipline. Ils reflètent à la fois la tradition scientifique américaine, plutôt néolibérale, et l'approche plus structuraliste propre au courant européen, les deux s'attachant à expliquer les causes et les origines des migrations, mais aussi les impacts économiques, sociaux et politiques des différents types de migration, que ce soit la migration de travail, celle des réfugiés ou encore la migration clandestine.

Obey
E Pluribus Venom collects a large body of work produced by Shepard Fairey and presented at the Jonathan Levine Gallery during his massive exhibition in the summer of 2007. The title, which translates Out of many, poison is derived from E Pluribus Unum (out of many, one) an early motto adopted by the U.S. Government which appears on U.S. currency. The artists thesis is that many becoming one, or a loss of power and influence of the individual in favor of homogeny is a symptom of a society in decline. The book is comprised of artworks designed to question the symbols and methods of the American machine and American dream and also celebrate those who oppose blind nationalism and war. Some of Faireys works use currency motifs or a Norman Rockwell aesthetic to employ the graphic language of the subjects they critique. Other works use a blend of Art Nouveau, hippie, and revolutionary propaganda styles to celebrate subjects advocating peace.
