Citizenship, Nation-building and Identity in the EU - The Contribution of Erasmus Student Mobility (Hardcover): Cherry James Citizenship, Nation-building and Identity in the EU - The Contribution of Erasmus Student Mobility (Hardcover)
Cherry James
R4,626 Discovery Miles 46 260 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

With Brexit looming, a major issue facing UK Higher Education is whether the UK will be able to stay in the Erasmus Programme. This book sits at the intersection of three main interrelated themes - EU citizenship, the current state of the university in Europe, and student mobility - as they play out in the context of an EU funded programme established not least to promote European identity, European consciousness and European citizenship. Exploring through interviews with students from many countries, this book weaves together the themes of citizenship creation as a device for building a nation and a polity, the university as a public space in the era of the marketization of higher education, and communicative interaction as the mechanism by which citizenship is created. Ultimately it asks if the building bricks of national citizenship can be transposed to the transnational scale, and assist in creating the transnational, EU citizenship. It finds, surprisingly, that far from encouraging and facilitating the communicative interaction on which the development of EU citizenship was postulated, central features of the Erasmus Programme inadvertently work against this outcome. This book will be of key interest to scholars and students of EU law and European and EU studies, Citizenship Studies, sociology, and more broadly to higher education in general.

R802 Discovery Miles 8 020 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

This book is open access under a CC BY 4.0 license. This edited volume is concerned with the evolution and achievements of cooperation in research and innovation between Africa and Europe, and points to the need for more diversified funding and finance mechanisms, and for novel models of collaboration to attract new actors and innovative ideas. It reflects on the political, economic, diplomatic and scientific rationale for cooperation, while also examining practical developments, illustrated with examples, in the fields of food security, health, and climate change. The need to mobilise scientific knowledge and to ensure equality and fairness in the cooperation are recurrent themes. Africa-Europe Cooperation in Research and Innovation is essential reading for policy makers and researchers in international relations and science diplomacy.

Doctor David Burch is a middle aged Biologist who receives funding from an eccentric millionaire, Ronald Haymond, to investigate the "chupacabra phenomenon" in Mexico. The doctor puts together a team of willing and not so willing scientists, and together they attempt to piece together the mystery of the chupacabra. But what they find is more compelling than anyone could have ever imagined as they discover a creature, which is connected to the chupacabra, but is much larger . . . and considerably deadlier. With a secret sect of the military involved, the team find themselves firmly entangled within a web of deception, and anyone that is connected to the mystery is being systematically eradicated. Fighting against time, the team struggles to overcome adversity and unravel the mystery of the creatures. And save their own lives.
