Konsumpraktiken und Gewohnheiten sind in einer modernen Gesellschaft vielfältig. Eine/n typische/n Verbraucher/in gibt es nicht; verschiedene soziale Merkmale wie Alter, Einkommen, Geschlecht, Wertvorstellungen bestimmen die soziale Wirklichkeit und auch die Chancen der Teilhabe. Bei der Kommunikation über Abfallvermeidung sollten dies berücksichtigt werden. Die Handreichung bietet Multiplikatoren aus Politik, Verwaltung und Zivilgesellschaft Einsicht in die alltagsweltliche Sicht sozialer Gruppen, um wirksame Kommunikationskonzepte - insbesondere zur Abfallvermeidung - entwickeln zu können.

This handbook explores how democracies around the world seek to balance democratic values with the requirement to protect their citizens from the threat of politically motivated violence. Over the past few decades, the majority of the world's democracies have had to confront serious security threats, and in many instances these challenges have not come from rival states but from violent groups. This volume offers readers an overview of how some democracies have responded to such threats. It examines the extent to which authorities have felt compelled to modify laws to evade what would ordinarily be regarded as protected rights, such as personal privacy, freedom of movement and freedom of speech. Grounded in historical analysis, each of the sections addresses past and emerging security threats; legal and legislative responses to them; successful and unsuccessful efforts to reconcile democracy and security; and a range of theoretical questions. The case studies provided vary in terms of the durability of their democratic systems, level of economic development and the severity of the threats with which they have been confronted. The volume is divided into three thematic parts: Strong democracies: United States, Great Britain, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, Australia, New Zealand and Israel. Challenged democracies: India, South Africa, Brazil, Argentina and Romania. Fragile democracies: the Philippines and Nigeria.
