Steden zijn altijd plaatsen van uitwisseling en ontmoeting geweest, dus ook van migratie. In dit boek onderzoekt Anne Winter hoe stedelijke migratie in de vorige eeuwen verliep en hoe men er toen mee omging in Europese steden. Ze schetst ons de voorlopers van de actuele uitdagingen rond migratie en diversiteit.Stad en migratie zijn onlosmakelijk met elkaar verbonden, maar de spanningen en uitdagingen die migratie met zich meebrengt zijn de laatste vijf eeuwen heel uiteenlopend geweest. Enige historische diepgang is nodig om de discussie van vandaag beter begrijpen. Zo ontsnapt men ook aan al te oppervlakkige en populistische oordelen.

Paul Rameder widmet sich der Frage, in welcher Form und in welchen Bereichen die Freiwilligenarbeit einen Beitrag zur Genese und Reproduktion sozialer Ungleichheiten leistet. Durch die Aura der Freiwilligkeit und Uneigennützigkeit entziehen sich die sozial nachteiligen Effekte der Freiwilligenarbeit der öffentlichen Wahrnehmung und expliziten Kritik. Die multivariaten Analysen von Mikrozensusdaten aus Österreich zeigen, dass der Zugang zur Freiwilligenarbeit in hohem Maße durch die Ressourcenausstattung der Individuen geprägt ist. Auch die Funktionsverteilung innerhalb der Freiwilligenarbeit reproduziert die ungleichen sozialen Machtverhältnisse. So tragen die Mechanismen der sozialen Schließung und Hierarchisierung auch in den Feldern der Freiwilligenarbeit zu einer Verfestigung gesellschaftlicher Ungleichheiten bei.

"The Public Sphere from Outside the West brings together established and emerging new voices from philosophy, literature, anthropology, history, migration studies and information technology to address the present reality of the public sphere. In the age where everyone is in the public and everything is visible, this volume creates a delay in which the internet of things, mass surveillance and social media are asked "What is/not the Public?" The essays bring to attention the formation of geo-politically and historically distinct public spheres from South Africa, India, America and Europe. Such formations are found not only in the postcolonial histories of print, photography, cinema and caricature but also those underway in the digital era, such as the Arab Spring, Occupy movements and Anonymous. Through critical engagement with philosophers such as Kant, Heidegger, Benjamin, Habermas and Arendt , the determining concepts of the Public Sphere--privacy, secrecy, reason, the people--are shown to be undergoing epistemological and practical ruptures. Demonstrating the necessity of these considerations to understand the world public that is rapidly transforming this concept in radical ways through technologies today, this is the first collection on the subject to feature an impressive range of international thinkers. Global and timely in outlook, it breaks new ground and changes our way of looking at politics in the 21st century."--Bloomsbury Publishing.

Opportunities to “have your say,” “get involved,” and “join the conversation” are everywhere in public life. From crowdsourcing and town hall meetings to government experiments with social media, participatory politics increasingly seem like a revolutionary antidote to the decline of civic engagement and the thinning of the contemporary public sphere. Many argue that, with new technologies, flexible organizational cultures, and a supportive policy making context, we now hold the keys to large-scale democratic revitalization .Democratizing Inequalities shows that the equation may not be so simple. Modern societies face a variety of structural problems that limit potentials for true democratization, as well as vast inequalities in political action and voice that are not easily resolved by participatory solutions. Popular participation may even reinforce elite power in unexpected ways. Resisting an oversimplified account of participation as empowerment, this collection of essays brings together a diverse range of leading scholars to reveal surprising insights into how dilemmas of the new public participation play out in politics and organizations. Through investigations including fights over the authenticity of business-sponsored public participation, the surge of the Tea Party, the role of corporations in electoral campaigns, and participatory budgeting practices in Brazil, Democratizing In equalities seeks to refresh our understanding of public participation and trace the reshaping of authority in today’s political environment.
