Introduction: Whose Bosnia?, Edin Hajdarpasic Dec 2014

Introduction: Whose Bosnia?, Edin Hajdarpasic

Edin Hajdarpasic

This introductory chapter proposes a new approach to understanding the dynamics of nationalism. The book understands the task of nationalizing one’s “own people” as the basic structural condition on which national projects are founded and renewed. The chapter then approaches nationalist politics in Bosnia using what Claudio Lomnitz has characterized as “grounded theory.”

Youth In Australia - Policy, Administration And Politics, Terry Irving, David Maunders, Geoff Sherington Jan 2014

Youth In Australia - Policy, Administration And Politics, Terry Irving, David Maunders, Geoff Sherington

Terence H Irving, Dr (Terry)

This book describes and analyses the development of youth policy in Australia since the end of World War II. Three eras are distinguished in terms of how society constructed youth as a problem: as juvenile delinquency (to 1960); as a generation gap (to the mid-1970s); and most recently as a wasted resource (1975-1990). In each period chapters cover: the social and demographic context and images of young people; policy development; bureaucratic structures; and the politics of youth and youth policy.
