PROTEST AND SOCIAL MOVEMENTS

Animal Rights Activism

Catalogue Design: Remco Mulckhuyse, Coordesign

Is queer really anti-identitarian? And how is it experienced at the European level? At queer festivals, activists, artists and participants come together to build new forms of sociability and practice their ideals through anti-binary and inclusive idioms of gender and sexuality. These ideals are moreover channelled through a series of organisational and cultural practices that aim at the emergence of queer as a collective identity. Through the study of festivals in Amsterdam, Berlin, Rome, Copenhagen, and Oslo, this book thoughtfully analyses the role of activist

personal narratives to analyse how this activism arose, its impact on people’s personal and professional lives, and its transmission through familial generations.

Edited by Mohammed Hashas, Jan Jaap de Ruiter, and Niels Valdemar Vinding

Imams in Western Europe Developments, Transformations, and Institutional Challenges

As European Muslims and Muslims in the Middle East diverge, imams in Europe have emerged as major agents of religious authority who shape Islam’s presence in Western societies. This volume examines the theoretical and practical questions concerning the evolving role of imams in Europe. To what extent do imams act as intermediaries between European states and Muslim communities? Do states subsidise imam training? How does institutionalisation of Islam di�fer between European states?

Reading Etty Hillesum in Context

Naturalistic inquiry is about studying people in everyday circumstances by ordinary means. It strives to blend in, to respect people in their daily lives, to take their actions and experiences seriously, and to build on these carefully. Doing Qualitative Research: The Craft of Naturalistic Inquiry offers guidance, combining thoughtful reflection with practical tips.

It is written for undergraduate and graduate students in social science; for practitioners in social work, healthcare, policy advice, and organizational consultancy; and for all who have a genuine interest in society and its members.

Writings, Life, and Influences of a Visionary Author The diaries and letters of Etty Hillesum (1914–1943) have a special place among the Jewish-Dutch testimonies of the Shoah, so much so that Etty Hillesum studies has become its own ��eld. This book o�fers the most important contributions from the past ��fteen years of international research into Hillesum’s work and life, studying her ethical, philosophical, spiritual, and literary existential search.

Becoming a European Homegrown Jihadist A Multilevel Analysis of Involvement in the Dutch Hofstadgroup, 2002-2005

How and why do people become involved in European homegrown jihadism? This book addresses this question through an in-depth study of the Dutch Hofstadgroup, infamous for causing the murderer of ��lmmaker Theo van Gogh in 2004 and for plotting numerous other terrorist attacks.

The Hofstadgroup o�fers a window into the broader phenomenon of homegrown jihadism that arose in Europe in 2004 and is still with us today. Utilising interviews with former Hofstadgroup participants and the extensive police ��les on the group, this book overcomes the scarcity of high-quality data that has beset the study of terrorism for decades. The book advances a multicausal and multilevel understanding of

involvement in European homegrown jihadism. It stresses that the factors that initiate involvement are separate from those that sustain it, which in turn are again likely to di�fer from those that bring some individuals to actual acts of terrorism.

Linguistic and Cultural Foreign Policies of European States

Bart Schuurman

In exploring the birth of a Dutch identity between 1780 and 1830, this book integrates nationalism studies with literary and linguistic history by highlighting scholarly study of the Dutch language as a factor in the creation of the national identity. These early scholars promoted the Dutch language during a time of political upheaval, when citizens needed something to feel proud of. This book examines the impact individual agents had on a crucial stage in the Dutch nation-building process.

Towards a Decent Labour Market for Low Waged Migrant Workers

This anthology analyses low-wage migrant workers in Europe from many perspectives, including migration policies, human rights, economics, and more. Free movement of workers and services in the EU calls into question the extent to which the labour market and its institutions are able to counteract negative consequences, such as downward wage pressures and abuse of workers. These essays ��esh out the imbalances that unfairly disadvantage low-wage workers, shed light on their causes, and discuss possible solutions.

Tesseltje de Lange is an assistant professor in migration law at the University of Amsterdam and senior researcher at Tilburg University.

Understanding Culture

Understanding Culture A Handbook for Students in the Humanities

This textbook provides an innovative introduction to the study of culture from an international perspective. It examines culture as a dynamic term with meanings that change through time, o�fering the ��rst long-term analysis of the relationship between culture and nature. It discusses various theories of culture present in the disciplines of history, literature, art, and popular culture. Due to this breadth and coherence, the book can be ��exibly and relevantly applied across many topics and could be used in a wide range of courses.

Babette Hellemans teaches cultural history and medieval history at the University of Groningen.

“This much-needed and very welcome textbook excels at the challenging task of conveying the intricacies of theory in a crisp and accessible manner to the reader.

Abundant in illuminating examples, it is a guide to culture in the best sense of the world: it provides a lasting inspiration for reflection (well after it has been read).”
