Public expenditure provides resources for the universalisation of school education. The role of government is more important in developing and under developed countries; where the inequalities of income and other socio-economic problems persist. the paper highlights that the goal of free, compulsory, universal and quality based school education could become a reality only if there is a joint dedication between the central and state governments to investment in elementary education which contributes massive benefits to existing generation and upcoming generations. Many studies suggest that investing in education include the socio-economic returns, decline in acute poverty and exclusion of inequalities, fertility rates, demographic and health indicators; political and economic stability; dynamic positive externalities connected with public expenditure on education and better quality of life for everyone.

Aktuell erhält die Diskussion um die Rolle des Internet in der Politischen Bildung neuen Auftrieb durch die Entwicklung der sogenannten Web-2.0- Technologien, die im Vergleich zum Web 1.0 ein erheblich grösseres Potenzial zur Mitgestaltung politischer Inhalte und Prozesse und bzw. zur Partizipation bieten, aber auch neue Möglichkeiten der Kommunikation und Vernetzung eröffnen. In der vorliegenden Studie wird der Frage nachgegangen, inwieweit das Internet und speziell das Web 2.0 in der Lage sind, die in die Technik gesetzten Hoffnungen zu erfüllen. Dabei wird zunächst ausgelotet, welche Potenziale das Web 2.0 für die Politische Bildung mit Blick auf ihre didaktische Gestaltung bieten könnte. Im Anschluss daran wird auf der Basis einer Analyse des Internet-Angebots der traditionellen Anbieter Politischer Bildung (Bundes- und Landeszentralen für Politische Bildung, politische Stiftungen) sowie von Internetportalen im Bereich Politische Bildung festgestellt, welche Verbreitung Web-2.0-Angebote gegenwärtig besitzen. Schliesslich wird auf der Grundlage einer Nutzerbefragung an knapp 300 Teilnehmern virtueller politischer Bildungsangebote einer politischen Stiftung der Frage nachgegangen, wie Web-2.0-Angebote in der Politischen Bildungsarbeit aus Nutzersicht beurteilt werden. ; Currently, the discussion about the role of the Internet in civic education is receiving new impetus through the development of so-called Web 2.0 technologies, which, compared to Web 1.0, offer a considerably greater potential for shaping political content and processes and for participation, but also open up new possibilities for communication and networking. This study examines the extent to which the internet and Web 2.0 in particular are capable of fulfilling the hopes placed in the technology. First, the potentials that Web 2.0 could offer for civic education in terms of its didactic design are explored. Then, on the basis of an analysis of the Internet offerings of traditional providers of civic education (federal and state centres for civic education, political foundations) as well as Internet portals in the field of civic education, it will be determined how widespread Web 2.0 offerings currently are. Finally, on the basis of a user survey of almost 300 participants of virtual political education offerings of a political foundation, the question is pursued as to how Web 2.0 offerings in political education work are assessed from the user's point of view.

This thesis analyzes a gradual political transformation in Texas during the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries. It specifically analyzes the political climate following the 2014 Midterm Elections by using the valuable context of past Texas political history. In spite of the massive setbacks of the 2014 election cycle, the Democratic Party may actually have a bright future in the state of Texas. Demographic and economic trends provide the party with an opportunity to make steady gains. But such progress will not happen automatically: Democrats have to run candidates and take positions that appeal to the emerging Texas electorate.
