Political Education in Plural Societies: Using the Anti-Bias Approach to Challenge Oppression in Bombay and Berlin
(2012-10-29)
This study addresses the effectivity of the Anti-Bias approach and training methodology as a pedagogical political strategy to challenge oppression among student groups in the cities of Bombay and Berlin. The Anti-Bias trainings conducted within the framework of this study also become the medium through which the perpetuation of oppressive structures by students within and outside the school is investigated.
Empirical data from predominantly qualitative investigations in four secondary schools, two each in Bombay ...

Enforcement Instruments for Social Human Rights along supply Chains
(Rainer Hampp Verlag, Augsburg, München, 2017)
Dire working conditions are prevalent in the labor-intensive segments of global supply chains. Pronouncements by governments and corporations that claim to address the plight of workers are plentiful, but the enforcement of social and human rights is lacking. This volume explores the possibilities for better enforcement by: - providing a general overview of the currently considered enforcement instruments; - identifying governmental instruments that are yet to be employed; - assessing the effectiveness of social ...

Dress- and Auto- Makers in the “Free Trade” Arena
(2011-05-27)
Even though there have been many studies on the impact of trade liberalisation on labour standards, most of the studies are at national level, and there is a lack of research at industry level. This paper examines the impact of free trade on labour standards in capital- and labour-intensive industries in a developing country. For empirical findings, I take the case of the garment industry, representing labour-intensive industry, and automotive industry, representing capital-intensive industry, in Indonesia in the ...

The Containment of Labour Unrest in the Post Socialist China
(2011-07-25)
Due to its transition from the socialist mode of production to the capitalist mode, workers in China have been exposed to the exploitative class relations that they hardly experienced before. The working class is now assuming a subordinate position in the relations of production while the capitalist class remains in the dominant position. As a consequence, workers’ protests are constantly emerging and class conflicts are exacerbating in the contemporary China. I have set out to study in this paper how the party-state ...

Brexit as a conjuncture
(2018-02-27)
This academic paper presents the results of a small-scale research project with the title “Brexit as a conjuncture”. We combine the theoretical reflection on the conjunctural tendencies in the United Kingdom (UK) since the Thatcher era with the empirical media analysis at the moment of the rupture. Unlike academic papers that discuss either political and economic reasons of Brexit (see Clarke, Goodwin and Whiteley, 2016; Arnorsson and Zoega, 2016) or its conjunctural dynamics (see Jessop, 2016), our work combines the ...

Eine quantitative Analyse des Extraktivismus in Lateinamerika
(Universität Kassel, Fachbereich Gesellschaftswissenschaften, Fachgebiet Internationale und Intergesellschaftliche Beziehungen, 2012)
Unter dem Schlagwort “(Neo-)Extraktivismus” ist in den vergangenen Jahren eine rege Debatte über die Wirtschafts- und Sozialpolitik der neuen progressiven Regierungen in Lateinamerika entstanden. Kern des Konzepts ist die Kritik an einer hauptsächlich auf Rohstoffausbeutung basierenden Wachstums- und Entwicklungsstrategie, die, so die Vertreter der Debatte, für weite Teile der Region Lateinamerikas und der Karibik (nach wie vor) als vorherrschend betrachtet werden kann. Die geführte Auseinandersetzung basiert jedoch ...
