"What happened to black youth in the post-civil rights generation? What kind of causes did they rally around and were they even rallying in the first place? After the Rebellion takes a close look at a variety of key civil rights groups across the country over the last 40 years to provide a broad view of black youth and social movement activism. Based on both research from a diverse collection of archives and interviews with youth activists, advocates, and grassroots organizers, this book examines popular mobilization among the generation of activists - principally black students, youth, and young adults - who came of age after the passage of the 1964 Civil Rights Act and the Voting Rights Act of 1965. Franklin argues that the political environment in the post-Civil Rights era, along with constraints on social activism, made it particularly difficult for young black activists to start and sustain popular mobilization campaigns. Building on case studies from around the country--including New York, the Carolinas, California, Louisiana, and Baltimore--After the Rebellion explores the inner workings and end results of activist groups such as the Southern Negro Youth Congress, Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee, the Student Organization for Black Unity, the Free South Africa Campaign, the New Haven Youth Movement, the Black Student Leadership Network, the Juvenile Justice Reform Movement, and the AFL-CIO's Union Summer campaign. Franklin demonstrates how youth-based movements and intergenerational campaigns have attempted to circumvent modern constraints, providing insight into how the very inner workings of these organizations have and have not been effective in creating change and involving youth. A powerful work of both historical and political analysis, After the Rebellion provides a vivid explanation of what happened to the militant impulse of young people since the demobilization of the civil rights and black power movements - a discussion with great implications for the study of generational politics, racial and black politics, and social movements"--

"Zukünftige Generationen sind zukünftige Bürger mit Rechten. Deshalb sollten Rechtssysteme diese durch geeignete Institutionen schützen. Im Fall der EU findet sich in grundlegenden Gesetzestexten ein expliziter Bezug auf intergenerationelle Gerechtigkeit, aber paradoxerweise existiert keine Institution, um diese abzusichern. Dies ist insofern problematisch, als dass repräsentative Demokratien auf kurzfristige Erfolge und Interessen von heutigen Wählerinnen ausgerichtet sind. Leicht werden Zukunftsbelange als politisch unbequem aufgeschoben. Wir argumentieren deshalb dafür, dass verantwortliche Politik diesem strukturellen Problem aktiv begegnen sollte und schlagen ein zeitliches Checks-and-Balances-System vor. Anhand eines Vergleichs vorhandener politischer Instrumente und der Analyse ihres effektiven Einflusses auf den Gesetzgebungsprozess schlagen wir die Schaffung eines europäischen Bürgervertreters vor, der sich explizit und aktiv für die Rechte zukünftiger Generationen einsetzt. Im Ausblick schließen wir einen Überblick über die jüngsten Entwicklungen in dieser Richtung an." (Autorenreferat)

The Stuttgart-based Foundation for the Rights of Future Generations (FRFG) and the London-based Intergenerational Foundation (IF) jointly award the biennial Intergenerational Justice Prize, endowed with EUR 10,000 (ten thousand euros) in total prize-money, to essay-writers who address political and demographic issues pertaining to the field of intergenerational justice. The prize was initiated and is funded by the Apfelbaum Foundation. For the 2020 prize, the FRFG and IF call for papers on the following topic:Intergenerational wealth transfers through inheritance and giftsTopic abstractWealth transfers across generations combine justice between past, present and future generations (intergenerational justice) with justice within the present generation (intragenerational justice) as a major reason for the increasing inequality in a society is the accumulation of wealth within families over time. Inheritance taxes deprive the testator of the opportunity to pass on their assets to their direct descendants. Instead, the state distributes them to all citizens. On the one hand, there is the view that the acceptance of private property implies that it should also be allowed in family relationships: wealth may accumulate along family lines, instead of being redistributed to society as a whole at every change of generation. Conversely, it is maintained that the birth lottery (the question of being born into a poor or rich family) should not affect the life chances of the youngest generation. Undoubtedly, intergenerational transfers of wealth by inheritance and gifts (and related issues of inheritance and gift tax) are a complex issue that has been the subject of many political and philosophical discussions.In this Call for Papers we invite contributions that consider and analyse the topic from various perspectives of intergenerational justice.For instance:Is it legitimate for wealth to remain within families, generation after generation? Or should the wealth be taxedby the state, for greater redistribution? Which philosophical arguments speak in favour of the dynastic approach, which ones support the societal approach?To what extent do inheritance (and gift) tax systems differ in terms of tax rates and allowances according to degree of kinship in OECD countries or beyond? What percentage of the population is liable to these taxes? How are business assets handled?How does inheritance tax relate to the welfare state? Does a higher inheritance tax empirically actually lead to less inequality?How (un)popular are (high) inheritance and gift taxes among voters? Can this topic be used to win elections? Are there different opinions depending on age/generation?Which relevant narratives and argumentation strategies can be identified in politics, business, society and the media, and where do they converge?FormalitiesThe Intergenerational Justice Prize is endowed with EUR 10,000. The prize money will be distributed proportionally among the best submissions, which can be more or less than the top three submissions. Winning submissions will be considered for publication by the editorial team of the Intergenerational Justice Review(IGJR; www.igjr.org) for the summer issue 2021.For full entry requirements (details of required formatting, addresses for submissions etc, and an official entry form) email Maria Lenk (kontakt@srzg.de) or Antony Mason (awards@if.org.uk).Closing date for prize submissions: 1 July 2020, 23:59 (GMT+1)
