Abstract

On December 19, 2018, the U.N. General Assembly endorsed the Global Compact for Migration (GCM), a non-binding agreement approved in a historical moment in Marrakech on 10 December by 164 Member States. The GCM is the first time in which the international community has widely agreed on how to address the global migration challenge. The topic of citizenship, however, has been left outside of the GCM and remains the last stronghold of national sovereignty, which seems to need no international regulation. Is this assumption still politically valid, or is the world ready for a Global Compact on Citizenship?

By bringing together contributions from a wide range of researchers, the newly published Handbook of Political, Social, and Economic Transformation, co-edited by WZB director Wolfgang Merkel, sheds a fresh, multidisciplinary light on transformation research.

Diskussionsforum und Get-together in Zusammenarbeit mit dem Deutschen Historischen Museum Berlin
Description

Wer hätte vor ein paar Jahren gedacht, dass Grundfragen der Demokratie in Deutschland zu Debatte stehen und intensiv diskutiert werden? Viele Wählerinnen und Wähler haben sich abgewandt und sind enttäuscht. Andere sind entschlossen, sich nicht entmutigen zu lassen und demokratische Standards zu verteidigen. Welchen Beitrag können ein Museum und ein wissenschaftliches Institut dazu leisten? Das WZB und das Deutsche Historische Museum (DHM) laden in der WZB-Reihe „Achtung: Demokratie“ zu einem Diskussionsforum über die neuen Herausforderungen für die Demokratie ein.

Short description
In her new book, Kalypso Nicolaïdis steps out of the bounds of traditional academia to offer a unique take both on Brexit and on the power of mythical stories to frame our democratic conversation. She conjures up three archetypes to explore the competing visions that have clashed so dramatically over the meaning of Brexit, whether as the ultimate demonstration of British exceptionalism, a harbinger of terrible truths for the EU and the West or a sacrifice on the altar of EU unity.
