Description

As part of the Senator George Mitchell Seminar Series, John Chillag delivered a powerful and moving speech to mark the 64th anniversary of the Nazi occupation of Hungary.

Rebakah commented, "Although a traumatic experience, I'm glad I had the chance to visit Auschwitz - to learn what atrocities had happened and make me realise that situations like the Holocaust should never happen again". John's seminar analysed those involved in the Holocaust and genocides, with talk of perpetrators, interveners, rescuers and bystanders. John described how silent bystanders' 'inaction' allowed mass murder to flourish and went on to add that everybody has a choice and r

Unit 4 in the Countries and Citizens: Linking International Macro and Micro Data e-learning materials. This unit demonstrates the potential for combining macro and micro data for a specific research question, such as a comparative study of attitudes to voting combined with country or city level turnout data in a cross country analysis. For example ESS consists of samples of individuals in 22 European Countries. The survey asks about media usage; political interests; party attachments; voting behaviour; knowledge of the outcomes of European elections and participantsÃƒÂ¯Ã‚Â¿Ã‚Â½ views on such issues as immigration, policy efficacy, the economy and the environment. These data can be combined with the aggregate voting pattern data available in Eurostat New Cronos, such as the pr

Unit 1 of the Countries and Citizens: Linking International Macro and Micro Data e-learning materials. This unit covers the basics of using aggregated macro data and survey data. It provides an overview of the range of international aggregate and survey data sets available, the range of topics covered and the different ways in which data is collected and standardised. Using a series of examples, it covers the respective strengths and weaknesses of using aggregate and survey data, i.e. when should an aggregate dataset be used and when can a survey data set be used. By the end of this students will be able to: 1.Discuss the basic principles involved in using macro data and survey micro data. 2.Evaluate the range of aggregate and survey datasets available. 3.Recognise the strengths and weakne

Description

This short film is an interview with an Indian woman as she drives through Delhi on her way to a kitty party. She explains that a kitty party is a monthly social gathering of a group of women, to "eat, drink and be merry", but that it is primarily concerned with money. Each member of the group contributes a sum to the "kitty", and at each gathering, lots are drawn to determine who will receive the lump sum of the kitty that month, to spend on whatever they wish. The kitty therefore represents both an opportunity for socialising and for saving money. The interviewee stresses how she considers the party members to be acquaintances rather than friends, but also the benefits to be gained from saving money in this manner. A sense of the heavy traffic in Delhi is made clear throughout the fi
