Beschreibung

Civic Engagement Drivers explores the multifaceted issue of why citizens participate in governance, or why they don't. It examines both the individual motivations and the structural factors that either encourage or impede civic action, essential for a healthy democracy. A key insight is that understanding these dual influences—personal values alongside societal structures like electoral systems and government policies—is vital for boosting public participation. For example, having political knowledge is important, but so is having an accessible way to use that knowledge through participation in community organizing. The book uniquely integrates individual-level motivations, such as trust in government and social capital, with broader structural considerations like campaign finance regulations and media landscapes. Providing a comprehensive model, the book progresses from defining core concepts to examining individual factors and then structural influences. It draws upon decades of research, including large-scale surveys and case studies. This comprehensive approach offers practical strategies for policymakers, community organizers, and educators, providing concrete recommendations for enhancing civic engagement and addressing the ongoing debates about declining participation.

    The concept of animal rights is a deeply philosophical and ethical issue that challenges our views on how animals should be treated and regarded in society. At its core, animal rights is the belief that animals, like humans, have inherent value and deserve certain protections from harm, exploitation, and abuse. This perspective asserts that animals are sentient beings capable of experiencing pain, fear, and pleasure, and thus, they should not be subjected to unnecessary suffering or exploitation for human gain. 
    Historically, animals have been viewed largely as property or resources for human use, whether in agriculture, industry, or even entertainment. Over time, however, a growing awareness of animal sentience and the recognition of their complex emotional and cognitive abilities have led to significant shifts in how societies regard and treat animals. The modern animal rights movement can trace its origins to the mid-19th century, with the establishment of the first animal protection laws and the formation of advocacy groups dedicated to the welfare of animals. 
    The industrial revolution marked a turning point in the relationship between humans and animals, as it saw the rise of factory farming, animal testing for medical and cosmetic purposes, and the widespread use of animals in entertainment. These practices sparked widespread concern about the ethics of animal use, leading to the formation of various animal welfare organizations, including the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (ASPCA) in 1866. These groups campaigned for more humane treatment of animals, but it wasn’t until the 20th century that the concept of animal rights as a broader ethical movement began to take shape.

    Today, twenty-five years since Diana's death, seems the right moment for a reassessment of this remarkable woman. Did the Royal Family learn lessons from her life, about protection and privacy, about how to incorporate outsiders into their ranks, about how to manage scandal? Did it take any lessons from her death—and the public's reaction not only to that but also to the behavior of, in particular, the Queen and Prince Charles, in the aftermath? Or have the family and the Palace—the men in grey suits, as Diana called them—continued on the same track, unchanged, repeating many of the mistakes made with her, from her first nervous ventures in royal circles to her later defiance of traditional protocols? These and many other questions are explored in this authoritative book, written by two people closely associated with Diana: Inspector Ken Wharfe was the Princess's police protection officer for six years during the most turbulent period of her marriage to Prince Charles, and Ros Coward was chosen as author of the official book by the Diana, Princess of Wales Memorial Trust. This book is both an examination of the people and events of the time and an elegiac tribute to one of the most iconic figures of the late twentieth century.
