Young People, Radical Democracy and Community Development
Focusing on youth activism for greater equality, liberty and mutual care - radical democracy - this timely collection explores the movement's impacts on community organisations and workers.
Burnt by Democracy
Burnt by Democracy traces the political ascendance of neoliberalism and its effects on youth. The book explores democracy and citizenship as described in interviews with over forty young people – ages 16 to 30 – who have either experienced homelessness or identify as an activist, living in five liberal democracies: Canada, Australia, New Zealand, the United States, and the United Kingdom. Highlighting significant cuts to social and affordable housing, astronomical increases in the costs of higher education, and the transformation and erosion of state benefits systems, Jacqueline Kennelly argues that democracy’s decline is not occurring because young people are apathetic, or focused on ...
Youth Activism
This resource provides a wide-ranging survey of the past, present, and future of youth activism in the USA and around the world. The work places a special focus on prominent youth activists, their organizations, and the causes to which they are determined to make change, including civil rights, environmental issues such as climate change, gender and LGBTQ+ rights, and US military actions and financial investments to which they are opposed. How has youth activism changed over the decades? What are the keys to fostering civic engagement among young people? What tools do young people use now to advance political causes important to them? What impact are they having on political and legal struggles over climate change, immigration, and civil rights? This all-in-one resource answers all those questions and more.
Does the Bank Lending Channel of Monetary Transmission Work in Turkey?
Does the bank lending channel of monetary transmission work in Turkey? Using the May- June 2006 financial turbulence as an exogenous shock that prompted a significant tightening of monetary policy, this paper examines the loan supply response of Turkey's banks, depending on their balance sheet characteristics. The empirical results indicate that banks can play a role in Turkey's monetary transmission mechanism. Specifically, bank liquidity is found to have a significant effect on loan supply in Turkey. This suggests that the effect of monetary policy in Turkey can be propagated by the banking sector, depending on its liquidity position.
Heimkehr
Chefinspektor Anton ("Tone") Hagen kehrt nach Jahren bei der Linzer Kriminalpolizei nach Vorarlberg heim. Einen Tag nach seinem Dienstantritt wird in Feldkirch ein Schriftsteller ermordet - genauer: geköpft, und zwar mit einer mittelalterlichen Hellebarde. Neben der Leiche findet man ein Manuskript, das den Mord literarisch vorwegnimmt. Mit einer wesentlichen Abweichung in der Person des Opfers freilich. Die Töchter des Ermordeten, eine davon mit einem Türken der zweiten Generation verheiratet, scheinen ihrem Vater nicht sonderlich nachzutrauern. Türkische Kreise und das regionale Schriftstellermilieu sind denn auch zunächst das Umfeld, in dem Hagen und seine neuen Kollegen ermitteln. D...

De Gruyter Handbook of Youth Activism
This is the first handbook to focus exclusively on youth activism, to outline the current state of research and identify promising emerging areas, and to forecast what new developments one might anticipate in the future. It provides a comprehensive introduction to theoretical and methodological approaches, as well as insights into the directions of both the scholarly field and the phenomenon of youth activism itself within the context of global power relations. Youth political socialization, civic engagement, and citizenship attributes have frequently been highlighted as arenas of global concern, often by pundits and politicians declaiming the supposed ‘democratic deficit’ amongst more r...
