Beschreibung
In social research, a positive association between the level of education and, e.g., political participation has been shown repeatedly. At the same time, it is still debated whether there is a causal connection implied with this relationship and by which mechanisms higher education impacts on social or political participation.
This workshop particularly welcomes contributions analyzing such mechanisms. It aims at shedding more light on the relationship between higher education and civic participation, be it political participation, civic engagement, volunteering or other forms. Contributions focusing on attitudes relevant to civic participation, e.g. democratic values, political efficacy, or intercultural tolerance, are welcome as well.
