  • Current Migration Situation in the EU: Hate Crime November 2016
    HELPING TO MAKE FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS A REALITY FOR EVERYONE IN THE EUROPEAN UNION Current migration situation in the EU: hate crime November 2016 Asylum seekers and migrants face various forms of violence and harassment across the European Union (EU). As this month’s report on the migration situation underscores, such acts are both perpetrated and condoned by state authorities, private individuals, as well as vigilante groups. They increasingly also target activists and politicians perceived as ‘pro-refugee’. Meanwhile, a lack of relevant data is hampering efforts to develop effective measures to prevent these incidents. Outlining recent attacks in 14 EU Member States, this focus of the November report also examines the diverse factors that undermine the reporting of such incidents and highlights promising practices seeking to counter them. Contents Thematic focus: hate crime....................................................................................................2 Main findings ..........................................................................................................................2 Scarce recording of incidents targeting asylum seekers and migrants................................... 3 Incitement to hatred.......................................................................................................................... 7 Question of perpetrators................................................................................................................... 7 Factors behind the low reporting of incidents

  • Multiple Modernities Or Varieties of Modernity?
    Multiple Modernities or Varieties of Modernity? Volker H. Schmidt National University of Singapore CS abstract: The article offers a critical appraisal of the concept of multiple moder- nities that has been gaining ground in sociology during the past decade. It rejects this concept as both conceptually flawed and empirically unfounded, and it proposes an alternative concept, that of varieties of modernity, which is believed to be better able to address the former’s substantive concerns, while at the same time permitting us to speak of modernity in the singular. The main source of inspi- ration for such an alternative concept is the varieties of capitalism paradigm guiding the new political economy literature, and one of its advantages over the multiple modernities paradigm is its focus on institutions, rather than vague, barely explicated notions of culture and cultural difference. However, a varieties of modernity approach that followed its lead would have to be much broader and more comprehensive, and would therefore be more difficult to develop and to apply, than the varieties of capitalism paradigm. But even if it ultimately proved infeasible, the very consideration of its methodological prerequisites would still promise to yield valuable insights for students of modernity. keywords: capitalism ✦ institutions ✦ modernity Introduction In the 1990s, a new paradigm emerged in sociology to conceptualize the contemporary world: the concept of multiple modernities. The propo- nents of the new paradigm share a number of key assumptions about
