Delaktighet ur ett elevperspektiv : Kooperativt lärande på mellanstadiet / Participation from a student perspective : Cooperative Learning in Elementary schoolGille, Sofia January 2024 (has links)
This qualitative study examines, by analyzing 30 transcribed interviews, participation in Elementary school from a student perspective, and in teaching characterized by Cooperative Learning. Student participation is a goal in the Swedish curriculum and is seen as essential for fulfilling learning outcomes, and research shows that students’ participation is limited and strictly controlled by the teachers. The study concerns itself with three dimensions of participation: the social dimension, the political and the epistemological dimension. The analysis highlights different aspects of participation which are all important to the students. The aspects of social participation concern safety, respect, and responsibility within the social community. Continuity within the cooperating groups seems to be a prerequisite for these aspects, as they are all built up over time. The political aspects of participation that emerge from analyzing the interviews revolve around questions of influence in the form of co-determination, self-determination, and leadership. Although these aspects all seem to be of importance to the students, they are not specifically prioritized in Cooperative Learning within the studied schools. Epistemological participation is made visible in the analysis of the data through the descriptions of students’ willingness to learn, and curiosity about the new and previously unknown. The students’ statements are characterized by a desire to experience meaning in their schoolwork, by among other things understanding the benefits and future use of the knowledge they are supposed to develop. When the groups are exposed to stressful situations, like when their work is to be assessed, it appears to hinder epistemological aspects of participation. The results show that there are opportunities for all three dimensions of participation to occur within cooperative learning, but there are also challenges. The students’ pursuit of efficiency in work, constitutes an obstacle to their ability to participate, which should have otherwise been made possible by Cooperative Learning. Students also need to have the opportunity to express their opinions about the teaching in their classroom, as well as to be able to have an impact on their future lesson plans. This includes allowing students to take part in conversations about the purpose of school, both in the long term, and in relation to current projects. Since education is multidimensional, it is important to work for a greater representativity for all societal groups, and especially for those who the education concerns, the students, as a way to make the discussion more multidimensional. This, in turn, can contribute to making students’ social, political, and epistemological participation possible at a larger extent than what is seen in today’s schools.

The Politics of Emigration in Europe: A Research AgendaKyriazi, Anna, Mendes, Mariana S., Rone, Julia, Weisskircher, Manès 30 May 2024 (has links)
While the politics of immigration in destination countries has been a prominent topic of research in comparative political science in Europe, the same does not apply to emigration and to the perspective of peripherical EU countries. This is true even though the flows of people moving from east to west and from south to north pose potentially significant challenges to ‘sending countries’ in Europe. This article sets up a research agenda aimed at contributing to redress this imbalance. It highlights the need to explore more systematically themes such as (1) the impact of emigration on the political behaviour of both those who stay and those who leave and (2) and how emigration is framed and politicized by relevant societal actors. Ultimately, it draws attention to the fact that a lot of the questions that have been asked about ‘entry’ (immigration) need to be asked about ‘exit’ too (emigration).

The roots of civic apathy in local governmentMokgwatsana, Edwin Ntwampe 11 1900 (has links)
The dissertation deals with the roots of civic apathy in local government, and the
main emphasis is to establish the root cause/s of civic apathy. The hypothesis: 'civic
apathy is a phenomenon intensified by ignorance and a feeling of powerlessness and
frustration on the electorate' is tested in this study. To examine further specific
aspects of civic apathy, including establishing the cause/s and effects of apathy, the
author conducted a quantitative research in the Northern Metropolitan Area m
Johannesburg, using questionnaires and literature study as the research method.
The hypothesis advanced in the dissertation has been validated insofar as it has been
argued and demonstrated that indeed people can feel powerless and frustrated if they
are deliberately being excluded from, or denied the opportunity to participate
actively in their local government activities. The main finding is that civic apathy is
intensified by ignorance. However, the most important finding is that there ts a
causal relationship between powerlessness, frustration and apathy. / Public Administration and Management / M. Admin. (Public Administration)

在全球基金總部要求擴大公民社會參與度的背景下,2006年4月,非政府組織聯合發起運動,反對中國全球基金國家協調委員會秘書處組織的兩名民間社會代表的選舉,要求增加參與權和改善選舉程式。本研究採用質性研究方法,對這場由非政府組織發起的政策倡導運動的發生原因、運動發起方的構成與真實力量、運動參與方在期間的互動過程與策略運用以及運動所能達成的成果展開分析,為社會運動理論在中國的適用與變化提供實證研究基礎上的探索,對非政府組織在中國環境下謀求組織發展及拓寬政治參與空間提出建議。 / 本研究回顧了中國愛滋病問題的背景與現狀、西方社會運動研究理論體系與相關研究成果以及中國抗爭政治研究,採用動員結構與政治機會結構為核心的分析框架,發現: / (1)在西方社會運動理論研究中沒有重要地位的傘狀組織關係在在CCM選舉運動動員結構中扮演了關鍵角色,增加了運動發起方的整體力量與合法性來源,並呈現出多層級傘狀組織結構。 / (2)CCM選舉運動聯盟距離臨時性、適當制度化和去中心化的目標尚有距離,正在向理想的外部動員結構轉化,目前呈現出非政府組織聯盟與多層級傘狀組織相結合的動員結構。 / (3)中國目前宏觀政治環境中存在倡導型運動的生存空間。通過一系列的策略選擇與運用,運動發起方可以發掘、詮釋、擴大政治機會,不斷營造運動發展空間,尤其是對國際因素的敏銳把握與利用,成功將運動不斷推進。 / (4)政治機會結構四要素並不是平行發揮作用。在國家鎮壓能力基本穩定維持不變的情況下,政治體制內同盟者的存在對政治管道和政治精英體制穩定性發揮主導作用,進而對運動進程和結果帶來深遠影響。 / 本研究提出了目前CCM選舉運動的動員結構特徵,以及運動發起方在對政治機會把握、利用過程中的優點與缺陷,並提議加入跨界拓展作為考察外部動員結構的分析視角,在政治機會結構四要素的分析中整合國際因素的影響,最後提出對非政府組織發展,國際項目管理和相關政策的建議。 / Since Global Fund claimed for expanding public participation in civil society, in the April of 2006 NGOs made allies to launch a movement against the election organized by CCM Secretariat, requiring adding the right of participation and improving election procedures. With qualitative research method, this paper analyzes the reason, process and result including interactions and strategies among participants of this advocacy movement organized by NGOs, providing evidence-based study for employment and adaptation of the social movement theory in China; and makes suggestions for NGOs to expand organization development and political participation in the context of China. / This study adopts mobilization structure and political opportunity structure in the theory of social movement as core theoretical framework based on reviewing the background and status quo of AIDS issue in China, the theory and relevant studies of social movement as well as studies on China contentious politics. Findings are as follows: / 1.Umbrella organizations, which are of less emphasis in the western studies of social movement, play a key role in CCM election movement mobilization. It increases organizers’ overall strength and legitimacy and shows a multi-level structure. / 2.CCM election movement allies haven't yet achieved being temporary, proper institutionalized and decentralized, and are converting into ideal external mobilization structure, demonstrating integration among NGOs allies and multi-level umbrella organizations at present. / 3.There exists living space for advocacy movements in the context of political environment in China. Organizers are able to detect, interpret, extend political opportunity via exertion of strategies, especially taking advantage of international factor, and, consequently, push the movement forward successfully / 4.Four components of political opportunity structure are not equally important. Under the circumstance that the state remains its ability of repression, political elite allies play a more leading role than the access to participation and the stability of ruling alignments and influence profoundly on both process and result of the movement. / This paper delineates the mobilization structure of CCM election movement as well as the disadvantages and advantages of organizers, when they were holding political opportunities and taking advantages of them. Allies cross borders are added as a new angle of view to analyze external mobilization structure. International factor is integrated with four components of political opportunity structure to analyze the issue. Suggestions are made for organization development of NGOs, international projects management and policy reform in the end. / Detailed summary in vernacular field only. / Detailed summary in vernacular field only. / Detailed summary in vernacular field only. / Detailed summary in vernacular field only. / Detailed summary in vernacular field only. / Detailed summary in vernacular field only. / Detailed summary in vernacular field only. / 王泳. / Thesis (Ph.D.)--Chinese University of Hong Kong, 2012. / Includes bibliographical references (leaves 223-258) / Electronic reproduction.

La désaffiliation partisane: pourquoi les adhérents quittent leur parti? étude de cas: le Parti socialiste francophone en BelgiqueAmjahad, Anissa 13 September 2013 (has links)
Cette recherche appréhende la désaffiliation partisane, définie comme le fait de tout membre qui n’assure plus le paiement de ses cotisations au parti, qu’il s’agisse d’un acte volontaire ou involontaire, d’une démarche active ou passive et indépendamment du type d’engagement qui le caractérisait. Cet objet d’étude est quasi inexploré par les politistes et fait des désaffiliés une figure totalement méconnue. Dans ce cadre, il était nécessaire de choisir un cas d’étude et des données appropriés. La recherche se concentre sur le Parti socialiste francophone en Belgique et utilise les données de deux enquêtes par questionnaire auprès des membres et des désaffiliés ainsi que des entretiens menés avec des désaffiliés. Se basant sur le niveau individuel et sur une conception multidimensionnelle du phénomène étudié et utilisant une méthodologie mixte, cette recherche répond à trois interrogations. Pour répondre à la question « qui sont les désaffiliés ?», un cadre théorique systématisé de la désaffiliation partisane a été construit. Suite aux analyses, il s’avère que les anciens membres se distinguent par certains traits des membres qui restent dans l’organisation. Il est donc possible de prédire la désaffiliation par des causes latentes. Ensuite, pour comprendre quelles sont les raisons de sortie de ces membres, cette recherche examine la diversité des parcours d’adhésion et identifie quatre types de désaffiliés :les fidèles, les désengagés, les sympathisants et les décalés. Enfin, il est également question de savoir comment se déroule la désaffiliation. Découlant directement du cadre hirschmanien et de l’approche sociologique du désengagement, l’étude met en exergue différents processus de désaffiliation selon les classes de désaffiliés. Cette partie met en exergue l’existence d’un processus de disqualification du parti opérant à la base des sections locales ou des sollicitations d’adhésion, les conditions de l’occurrence de la prise de parole, des temps de passivité ainsi que le rôle des évènements politiques et personnels. Avec ces trois questionnements, cette recherche analyse les différentes dimensions de la désaffiliation :la variance intergroupe (désaffiliés versus membres), la variance intragroupe (types de désaffiliés) et la dimension compréhensive (déroulement et perceptions). Cette recherche apporte une connaissance fine d’un phénomène inexploré. Elle permet, entre autres, de dégager des pistes de réflexion sur les approches théoriques de la participation, sur les processus de sélection à l’œuvre dans les partis politiques et sur la substance de l’adhésion partisane au 21ème siècle. / Doctorat en Sciences politiques et sociales / info:eu-repo/semantics/nonPublished
