Sommario/riassunto |
|
In Activists beyond Borders, Margaret E. Keck and Kathryn Sikkink examine a type of pressure group that has been largely ignored by political analysts: networks of activists that coalesce and operate across national frontiers. Their targets may be international organizations or the policies of particular states. Historical examples of such transborder alliances include anti-slavery and woman suffrage campaigns. In the past two decades, transnational activism has had a |

significant impact in human rights, especially in Latin America, and advocacy networks have strongly influenced environmental politics as well. The authors also examine the emergence of an international campaign around violence against women. |

Sommario/riassunto |

An introduction to the legal concept of unconstitutional bias.If a town council denies a zoning permit for a group home for intellectually disabled persons because residents don’t want “those kinds of people” in the neighborhood, the town’s decision is motivated by the public’s |

dislike of a particular group. Constitutional law calls this rationale “animus.”Over the last two decades, the Supreme Court has increasingly turned to the concept of animus to explain why some instances of discrimination are unconstitutional. However, the Court’s condemnation of animus fails to address some serious questions. How can animus on the part of people and institutions be uncovered? Does mere opposition to a particular group’s equality claims constitute animus? Does the concept of animus have roots in the Constitution?Animus engages these important questions, offering an original and provocative introduction to this type of unconstitutional bias. William Araiza analyzes some of the modern Supreme Court’s most important discrimination cases through the lens of animus, tracing the concept from nineteenth century legal doctrine to today’s landmark cases, including Obergefell vs. Hodges and United States v. Windsor, both related to the legal rights of same-sex couples. Animus humanizes what might otherwise be an abstract legal question, illustrating what constitutes animus, and why the prohibition against it matters more today than ever in our pluralistic society. |

Sommario/riassunto |

Insbesondere seit dem „PISA-Schock“ nach der ersten PISA-Veröffentlichung im Jahr 2001 hat die Forschung umfassende Einzelbefunde zu sozialer Ungleichheit, vor allem in der schulischen Bildung, vorgelegt. Soziale Ungleichheiten des Bildungserwerbs wurden dabei in allen Bildungsbereichen, von der frühkindlichen Bildung bis zur Weiterbildung im Erwachsenenalter, aufgezeigt. Diese Studie systematisiert erstmals das über knapp 20 Jahre hinweg gewachsene Forschungswissen zu den Erscheinungsformen sozialer Ungleichheit des Bildungserwerbs im deutschsprachigen Raum (Deutschland, Österreich und Schweiz). Die erstellte Forschungssynthese umfasst Befunde zu sozialer Ungleichheit in den Bereichen der vorschulischen Bildung, schulischen Bildung, beruflichen Bildung und Hochschulbildung sowie den Aspekten der Kompetenzen, der Bildungsbeteiligung und der Bildungsabschlüsse. Die Studie gibt einen Überblick über das vorhandene Forschungswissen und zeigt Forschungslücken auf. Zudem wird die verfügbare Evidenz aus Einzelstudien synthetisiert, um so verlässlichere Aussagen zum Bestehen sozialer Herkunftseffekte treffen zu können. Der Band stellt damit eine umfassende Vermessung der Forschungslandschaft dar. |
