Der Datenreport, den die bpb zusammen mit dem Statistischen Bundesamt, dem Wissenschaftszentrum Berlin und dem Deutschen Institut für Wirtschaftsforschung 2013 in der 14. Auflage herausgibt, gehört zu den Standardwerken für all jene, die sich schnell und verlässlich über statistische Daten und sozialwissenschaftliche Analysen zu den aktuellen gesellschaftlichen Entwicklungen in der Bundesrepublik Deutschland informieren wollen. Journalisten, Studierende, aber auch Fachleute aus Wissenschaft, Politik, Wirtschaft und Verwaltung erhalten mit dem Datenreport ein übersichtlich gestaltetes Handbuch, das sie mit den notwendigen Zahlen, Fakten und Argumenten versorgt, um an den öffentlichen Debatten zu den wirtschaftlichen, sozialen und politischen Trends in unserem Lande teilzunehmen. (Angabe zum Buch)
In fast allen europäischen Ländern bleiben heute mehr Männer und Frauen kinderlos als vor zwei oder drei Jahrzehnten. In Westdeutschland werden voraussichtlich mehr als 20 Prozent der 1965 geborenen Frauen und möglicherweise 30 Prozent der höher gebildeten Frauen des gleichen Jahrgangs ohne eigene Kinder bleiben. Das Thema Kinderlosigkeit hat in der jüngsten Zeit eine erhebliche öffentliche Aufmerksamkeit erweckt, jedoch steht die in Medien und Politik geführte Debatte auf wackeligen Füßen. Die dort verwendeten Zahlen zum Ausmaß der Kinderlosigkeit von Männern und Frauen in unserer Gesellschaft gehen weit auseinander und die vermuteten Ursachen der hohen Kinderlosigkeit in Deutschland sind widersprüchlich. Sind wirtschaftliche Unsicherheiten, schlechte Bedingungen der Vereinbarkeit von Familie und Beruf oder einseitig karriereorientierte Lebenskonzepte von Frauen, insbesondere Akademikerinnen, für die hohe Kinderlosigkeit verantwortlich? Fehlt ‚nur‘ ein geeigneter Lebenspartner oder, wenn vorhanden, fehlt diesem das Interesse an Familie
Der Beitrag gibt einen Überblick über die Potentiale des Sozio-oekonomischen Panels (SOEP) und des Mikrozensus für kontextuelle Analysen im Bereich der Bildungsforschung. Wir betrachten die Möglichkeiten und auch Grenzen, welche mit diesen beiden Datensätzen verbunden sind. Sie heben sich dadurch hervor, dass eine Berücksichtigung des Familien- und Haushaltskontextes möglich ist und die Datensätze in unterschiedlichem Ausmaß die Abbildung von institutionellen und regionalen Kontexten zulassen. Die Datensätze weisen unterschiedliche Stärken auf, die sich auch aus den hohen Fallzahlen des Mikrozensus oder der längsschnittlichen Betrachtung von Haushalten im SOEP ergeben. Da die verfügbaren Daten bis in die 1970er bzw. 1980er Jahre zurückreichen, bieten beide Datensätze Potentiale zur Analyse des Bildungsverhaltens in sich wandelnden Kontexten. Im Beitrag werden Analysebeispiele aus dem Bereich der frühen Bildung vorgestellt. In einem Ausblick diskutieren wir kurz zukünftige Analysepotentiale der Datensätze.

This book delves into the rationale, components of, and responses to accusations of judicial activism at the European Court of Justice.
Detailed chapters from academics, practitioners and stakeholders bring diverse perspectives on a range of factors – from access rules to institutional design and to substantive functions – influencing the European Court’s political role. Each of the contributing authors invites the reader to approach the debate on the role of the Court in terms of a constantly evolving set of interactions between the EU judiciary, the European and national political spheres, as well as a multitude of other actors vested in competing legitimacy claims. The book questions the political role of the Court as much as it stresses the opportunities – and corresponding responsibilities – that the Court’s case law offers to independent observers, political institutions and civil society organisations.
Judicial Activism at the European Court of Justice will appeal to researchers and graduate students as well as to EU and national officials.

(About the Book)
While scholarly writing has dealt with the role of law in the process of European integration, so far it has shed little light on the lawyers and communities of lawyers involved in that process. Law has been one of the most thoroughly investigated aspects of the European integration process, and EU law has become a well-established academic discipline, with the emergence more recently of an impressive body of legal and political science literature on 'European law in context'. Yet this field has been dominated by an essentially judicial narrative, focused on the role of the European courts, underestimating in the process the multifaceted roles lawyers and law play in the EU polity, notably the roles they play beyond the litigation arena. This volume seeks to promote a deeper understanding of European law as a social and political phenomenon, presenting a more complete view of the European legal field by looking beyond the courts, and at the same time broadening the scholarly horizon by exploring the ways in which European law is actually made. To do this it describes the roles of the great variety of actors who stand behind legal norms and decisions, bringing together perspectives from various disciplines (law, political science, political sociology and history), to offer a global multi-disciplinary reassessment of the role of 'law' and 'lawyers' in the European integration process.

With contributions from scholars in a range of different disciplines, this book reflects upon the achievements and failures to date of integration efforts aimed at Europe's Romani populations. The snapshots provided examine a variety of integration efforts at different levels and involving a range of institutional actors. In doing so, they offer a comprehensive introduction to aspects of human rights and integration within the European Union as well as crucial insights as to the current state of affairs in Europe as policy makers reflect on the current direction of initiatives to combat Romani exclusion.(About the Book)
Europe’s economic constitution in crisis and the emergence of a new constitutional constellation
(2014)
This discussion of the ECJ in the context of a project on political representation in the EU responds to the Court’s changing functions in the integration process and also to the critique which the exercise of this function has provoked in recent years after the Court objected to constitutional provisions and legislation of constitutional status in particular in the sphere of labour law and social protection. The ECJ has been accused of partisanship with a neoliberal-monetarist agenda. These debates are bound to extend to the new functions which were assigned to the CJEU in the supervision of the budgetary discipline of Member States in the Euro zone. The problems that might arise in such a case have been foreshadowed by the recent jurisprudence on the legality of the European practices of crisis management. The judgments of the German Bundesverfassungsgericht of 12 September 1212 on the ESM Treaty and the Fiscal Compact and the CJEU Judgment of 27 November 2012 in the Pringle case are of exemplary importance. They document the difficulties both courts have with the defense of the autonomy of law against apparent functional necessities and concurring attitudes in the readiness to accept the primacy of the political.
This book collects a large number of essays written in honour of Professor Ernst-Ulrich Petersmann by his friends, colleagues and former students. The respective contributions cover the fields of International Economic Law, International Constitutional Law/Transnational Constitutionalism, EU Law and Human Rights. The broad thematic scope of this book mirrors the extremely large field of interests of the jubilarian. Paying tribute to a particular trait of Professor Petersmann´s character who was always both a dogmatic thinker and a curious researcher, the authors try to cover both structural issues of law as well as most recent developments, in particular in the field of International Economic Law. “Construing” the constitution of International Economic Law, in both senses of this activity, was an aim throughout Professor Petersmann´s academic career and this goal stands also at the heart of this book. (Abstract of Book)
Während die neunziger Jahre EU-weit von einer bemerkenswerten Renaissance korporatistischer Arrangements geprägt waren, scheint die Entwicklung nun wieder umgekehrt zu verlaufen. Ob sich tatsächlich ein Paradigmenwechsel vom Korporatismus zum Lobbyismus vollzieht, wie verschiedentlich diagnostiziert, oder ob die Interaktion von Staat und Verbänden künftig zwischen diesen beiden Polen oszilliert, ist Thema dieses Buches. Zugleich ist es als Fallstudie zur österreichischen Sozialpartnerschaft und als vergleichende Analyse der Entwicklung in den "alten" und "neuen" Mitgliedsstaaten der EU angelegt.
