No full text[Vorerst nur Titelei, Inhaltsverzeichnis und Abstracts] Zwischen dem 11. und 12. Jahrhundert kam es in Europa zu einer Beschleunigung tiefgreifender Veränderungen, sodass ein Teil der Geschichtsforschung von einer ersten Revolution spricht. Der komparativ ausgerichtete Band untersucht anhand regionaler Fallstudien das Spezifikum deutscher und italienischer Gebiete und beleuchtet dabei insbesondere den Zusammenhang zwischen dem Investiturstreit und den Wandlungen in politischer und medialer Kommunikation, der Ausübung von Herrschaft sowie den sozialen Beziehungsstrukturen.[Per il momento solo titolo, indice e riassunti] Tra l’XI e il XII secolo, si realizzò in Europa un’accelerazione dei processi di trasformazione in atto, sicché una parte della ricerca ha parlato di una prima rivoluzione. Il presente volume di taglio comparativo si avvale di casi di studio regionali per esplorare gli sviluppi specifici delle regioni tedesche e italiane, con un’attenzione particolare al nesso tra la lotta per le investiture e i cambiamenti a livello di comunicazione politica e mediatica, esercizio del potere e strutture delle reti relazionali.[For now only title, table of contents and abstracts] Europe went through a period of rapid and profound transformation in the eleventh and twelfth centuries, leading some historians to refer to this time as a first revolution. This comparative volume draws on regional case studies to explore specific developments in German and Italian regions, with a particular focus on interconnections between the Investiture Contest and changes in political and media communication, how power was exercised, and the structures of social relationships

The European Union's Democratic Turn
Get PDFThis working paper argues that we are witnessing a democratic turn in EU initiatives to protect and promote EU values. If, for many years, EU institutions framed their interventions mostly in rule of law terms, since the first von der Leyen Commission took office democracy has become much more central in EU legislative and enforcement efforts. The WP analyzes the main pillars of the turn, discussing the core components of the European Democracy Action Plan and of the Defence of Democracy Package, and identifies its main drivers. Next to the need to provide better answers to constitutional backsliding processes, also other European and global challenges, such as the digital transition and the risks associated to foreign interferences in democratic processes, have pushed the EU institutions to bring forward new democratic initiatives. The WP then offers an initial analysis of the constitutional impact of the turn and reflects on some of the core challenges that EU institutions are facing in operationalising the value of democracy
