Описание: This important and topical volume is composed around the debt and migration crisis in Europe in 2015 (known as the Greece crisis), and written almost concurrently as the two crises developed in quick succession. The central argument here is that Europe’s present crisis suggests a post-colonial bind, or to put in stronger terms, a post-colonial destiny of Europe. The European situation bears remarkable similarity with the post-colonial condition elsewhere in the world and suggests a strong bond between Europe’s present situation and the post-colonial bind in which much of the world finds itself. The purpose of this volume is to examine in the light of 21st century capitalism notions such as debt, crisis, rupture, dialogue, mobilization, neo-liberalism, war and migration, and the old, never to be settled, question of ideology. The volume ends with reflections on Europe’s migration crisis, and reinforces the point that a critical post-colonial sense of history, accumulation, globalization, and the resilience of the nation form will help us reflect on the present European crisis, and draw appropriate lessons.

Описание: This book explores a vital but neglected chapter in the histories of nationalism, racism and science. It is the first comprehensive study of the transnational scientific community that in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries attempted to classify Europe's biological races. Anthropological race classifiers produced parallel geographies, histories and hierarchies of European peoples that were crucial to the creation of national identities and to the overtly political race discourses of eugenics and popular racist ideologues. They lent nationalism the invaluable prestige of natural science, and traced the histories, conflicts and relationships of ‘national races’ back into prehistory. Racial national character stereotypes meanwhile supported competing political ideologies. The book examines the interplay between class, gender and national identity narratives and the tensions and interactions between the scientific and political agendas of classifiers. Within the elaborate transnational networks of scientific communities, for example, they had to reconcile competing national narratives.

Описание: This book explores theEuropean welfare model, arguing that the rollout of European policiesfor welfare services has led to increased marketization. The author argues thatthe rise of profit-making in utilities, transport, child and health care isexacerbating rather than reducing inequalities among citizens, demonstratinghow the marketization of European welfare has taken place oversuccessive rounds of policymaking for European integration. These rounds have motivatednational level public services reform, as well as contestation over thesemeasures from civil society groups. The study traces the developments ofpolicymaking at EU level since the late 1980s, offers in-depth studies ofcontentious debates which have sealed the fate of welfare services at the turnof the century, and offers insights on the problems involved with prolongedausterity in Europe. This book therefore shows how European integration isprovoking a democratic challenge to what kind of Europe citizens want.
