 | | | Institutional conditions for integrated mobility services (IMS) - Towards a framework for analysis The present text is a theoretical framework that has been developed with the aim to generate knowledge of and policy recommendations for the promotion of integrated mobility services (IMS), with specific regard to institutional dimensions. Integrated mobility services are services where the passenger's transport needs are met by a service that not only integrates a range of mobility services, both public and private, but also provides one-stop access to all services through a common interface. These types of services are currently being developed in several cities globally, and the purpose... | | Pontes, A.I., Henn, M., & Griffiths, M.D. (2016). Assessing young people's political engagement: A critical and systematic literature review of the instruments used to measure political engagement. International Politics Reviews, in press. | Over the past few decades, there has been an increasing interest in understanding youth political engagement. However, it has been argued that the instruments used to assess the concept often lack adequate validation, and this is important as this practice may result in biased statistical conclusions. Consequently, the main aim of the present study was to systematically review, summarize, and critique the extant research evidence on the development of psychometric instruments that assess young people's political engagement. Following a systematic review of the literature, seven... | | HATE AND RACIST SPEECH IN THE UNITED STATES: A CRITIQUE This article attempts to explain why the United States is exhibiting the most liberal stand on protecting freedom of expression.

I was swimming in the public pool near my house on Veterans Day, November 11, 2016, a few days after the presidential election. The pool is divided into lanes and swimmers are expected to swim in their lanes. The pool was very crowded because of the holiday. A white man came in, surveyed the pool, and jumped into my lane. Soon, he was bearing down on me. I felt intimidated because he was a very aggressive swimmer and much larger than me. Afterwards I talked about what happened in the shower with the other women who had seen it all. Instead of ignoring his intrusion or of asking the guards... | | L'euroscetticismo e lo spazio della politica. Un confronto tra Front National, Movimento 5 Stelle e L' Altra Europa - Polis In the academic literature and the media the positions of political parties on European politics are represented as a field polarized in 'pro-European' and 'Eurosceptics'. The prevailing approach is to make equal the opposition to the principle of European integration and the political critique towards European Union. Euroscepticism is thus considered a dimension of the political competition that absorbs the left/right cleavage. Is it appropriate to include in a single political "front" parties which are alternative to each other on the ideological and programmatic angle? The article... | | |
