Die Autoren vergleichen die Beziehungen zwischen nomadisierenden Fulbe-Hirten und Farmern in Burkina Faso und in Nordwest-Kamerun. Während in Burkina die Integration der ethnischen Minorität der Fulbe stattfindet, ist die Beziehung in Kamerun zunehmend gewaltträchtig. Die Autoren führen dies auf unterschiedliche Landnutzungssysteme zurück: im ersten Fall gebe es traditionell eine gemeinsame Landnutzung, im zweiten Fall herrsche der Eigentumsgedanke vor. (DÜI-Sbd)

Based on interviews with more than 100 participants, Van Cott demonstrates how social issues were placed on the constitutional reform agenda and transformed into the nation's highest law. She follows each reform for five years to assess early results of what she calls an emerging model of multicultural constitutionalism.

Collective Action in the European Union is the first ever systematic investigation of collective action issues at the EU level itself. Bringing together an impressive array of EU and interest group scholars to investigate a key issue in European political economy, this study considers whether collective action is driven at the European transnational level by rational, utility maximising behaviour, or whether explanations couched in social terms are more convincing. The first chapters identify and address wider issues in transnational collective action. Later chapters apply these issues to specific domains, such as business, the professions, consumers, and environmental interests.
