The Transformation of Protest Politics
The central questions addressed in this Element are: How has protest politics changed over time, especially but not exclusively in the most recent times. And what are the implications and consequences of these transformations? In this vein, the Element identifies a number of processes of change as outlined in the literature, going from the expansion of the repertoires of contention to the normalization of protest and of the protesters, and the sh…
Are new generations of women more left-wing than men? Generations and gender gaps in attitudes to inequality and social services
The Oxford Handbook of Political Participation
The Oxford Handbook of Political Participation provides the first comprehensive, up-to-date treatment of political participation in all of its varied expressions. It covers a wide range of topics relating to the study of political participation from different disciplinary and methodological angles, such as the modes of participation, the role of the context as well as the determinants, processes, and outcomes of participation. The volume brings t…
A Treatment Model for Young Adults with Severe Mental Disorders in a Community Mental Health Center
In line with priorities set by the Italian Ministry of Health and international literature, the "Crisalide project" provides specific care pathways aimed at young adults (YA) with severe mental disorders (SMD). As described in Materials and Methods, it consists of three lines of activity: transition to adult mental health services (TSMREE/CSM 17-19); Diagnostic, Therapeutic, and Assistance Pathways for Young Adults (PDTA-YA); high-intensity treat…
Oxford Handbook of Political Participation
Environmental movements worldwide
This introduction presents an overview of the key concepts discussed in the subsequent chapters of this book. The book provides an overview of environmental movements in Western Europe. It looks at the other side of what once was called the Iron Curtain and focuses on the development of environmental activism and protest in Central Eastern Europe after 1989. The book examines environmental movements in Asia, and focuses on the Arab world – the Mi…
Youth and Politics in Times of Increasing Inequalities
Handbook of Citizenship and Migration
Taking an integrated approach, this unique Handbook places the terms ‘citizenship' and ‘migration' on an equal footing, examining how they are related to each other, both conceptually and empirically
The Routledge Handbook of Environmental Movements
This volume provides up-to-date knowledge on environmental movements, activism, and is a reference point for international work in the field. It offers an assessment of environmental movements around the world, macrostructural, microstructural and social-psychological dimensions, current trends and prospects for social change
Trust, Identity, Skills, or Recruitment
This article investigates the nature of the relationship between associational involvement and migrant political participation. We explore the extent to which empirical evidence supports the mechanisms proposed by four popular theories in the political participation literature: social capital, group consciousness, civic voluntarism, and mobilization theory. To do so, we employ a mediation-effect approach with data from random samples of migrants …
Talking About Youth
In this article, we employ data from comparative claims analysis of five major newspapers in nine European countries between 2010 and 2016 to examine discourse around youth. We look at the ways in which collective actors frame youth in the public domain and how this may provide discursive opportunities understood in terms of the extent to which public discourse portrays young people as agents of social change. More specifically, we argue that you…
Political Socialization, Worry about Crime and Antisocial Behaviour
Fear of crime occupies a substantial area of research and theorizing in criminology. Yet, it has not been examined within a longitudinal framework of political socialization. Using insights from generational modelling, we explore how political cohorts influence the fear of crime and perceptions of antisocial behaviour. This 'age, period and cohort' (APC) approach recognizes the distinct temporal processes of (1) individual ageing, (2) current con…
Toward a New Conditionality of Welfare? Reconsidering Solidarity in the Danish Welfare State
The traditional inclusive welfare regime in Denmark has over the last decade undergone important, and often unnoticed, changes. In the new millennium, welfare services have, in general, become more conditional and distinctions between various layers of need have been introduced. The inclusiveness of welfare state services has also been questioned with regard to the Europe of free movements, where the same rights apply indiscriminately to all EU c…
Solidarity in Europe–European Solidarity
This book aims to answer a number of questions on solidarity through the analysis of data from an original cross-national survey conducted within the TransSOL project. How developed are solidarity attitudes and practices among citizens of European member states? How diffused are these orientations when comparing various target groups, among them refugees/migrants, unemployed people, and the disabled? And how strongly are citizens engaged in helpi…
Solidarity in Europe
The concluding chapter paints a comparative picture of civic solidarity within and across European member states. For this purpose, we describe the main findings from our survey by presenting and highlighting the various levels of solidarity-driven practices and attitudes in comparative terms. Additionally, we identify the importance of European solidarity when compared to national or global solidarities in Europe. Finally, the chapter assembles …
Alternative Action Organizations
This article investigates the involvement of alternative action organizations in three forms of political advocacy in an attempt to gauge their degree of politicization. These forms can be understood as representing three different ways of making political claims: by raising public awareness with respect to a given cause or issue, by trying to influence the policy maker through "insider" lobbying activities, and by protesting in the streets as "o…
Austerity and Protest
Generations, Political Participation and Social Change in Western Europe
This new comparative analysis shows that there are reasons to be concerned about the future of democratic politics. Younger generations have become disengaged from the political process. The evidence presented in this comprehensive study shows that they are not just less likely than older generations to engage in institutional political activism such as voting and party membership - they are also less likely to engage in extra-institutional prote…
The Differential Impact of Education on Young People's Political Activism
It is a common theme in the literature on voter turnout that advanced Western democracies have entered a period of political disengagement and that it is young people, in particular, that participate less. In this paper, I analyse data from the three waves of the European Social Survey and show that while young people are in general less likely to be politically involved than their elders, these differences are greater in the United Kingdom than …
Explaining Differential Protest Participation
Protest participation scholarship tends to focus on the special characteristics of novices and the highly committed, underplaying the significance of those in between. In this article, we fill a lacuna in the literature by refocusing attention on four different types of protesters: novices, returners, repeaters, and stalwarts. Employing data from protest surveys of demonstrations that took place in seven European countries (2009-2010), we test wh…
