Sommario/riassunto |
|
For policy makers, business leaders, and American citizens, immigration reform is one of the defining issues of this era. In turns both personal and analytical, remaining factual and well-argued throughout, Fariborz Ghadar's Becoming American makes the case for common sense immigration policies and practices that will not only help strengthen America's fledgling economy and role as world leader, but will also help millions of prospective immigrants and their families start making more out of their lives today, and for generatio |

What is the role of utopia in the process of European integration? What does the term »Utopian Europe« mean in times of economic and financial crises in the EU? By analyzing its fundamental legal texts, Marcus Koch points out the position of utopian ideas in European unification, and how they have changed through the course of history. Once more, this study shows that utopian ideas are a driving force of political processes, and contributes to the discourse about the attractiveness and sensibility of the now heavily scolded European Union. |

Sommario/riassunto |
|
Welche Rolle spielt(e) das Utopische im Prozess der Europäischen Integration? Was bedeutet die Formulierung vom »utopischen Europa« in Zeiten der Wirtschafts- und Finanzkrise in der EU?Anhand der Analyse juristischer Grundlagentexte zeigt Marcus Koch, welche Position utopische Vorstellungen in der europäischen Einigung einnahmen und wie sie sich in der historischen Entwicklung verändert haben.Die Studie verdeutlicht einmal mehr, dass utopische Vorstellungen eine Triebfeder politischer Prozesse sind, und trägt zum Diskurs um die Attraktivität und Sinnhaftigkeit der derzeit viel gescholtenen Europäischen Union bei. |
