Catch-Eyou Work Package 2 Dataset 2.1A - Full Consortium Collection Of Literature Matrix

The dataset includes one master spreadsheet containing literatures searched, catalogued and summarised in the fields of Cultural Studies, Education, History, Media and Communication, Philosophy, Political Science, Psychology and Sociology, which contains 770 selected texts. The aims of the data collected are to produce an integrated theory that builds on the findings of different disciplines (Cultural Studies, Education, History, Media and Communication, Philosophy, Political Science, Psychology and Sociology) focused on the understanding of factors and processes (from the macro social level to the social and psychological level), within the different life contexts, that promote or hinder youth active citizenship in EU. It is possible that similar databases of literature around Europe, Young People and Active Citizenship across the fields of Cultural Studies, Education, History, Media and Communication, Philosophy, Political Science, Psychology and Sociology exist in other forms, perhaps collected for studies on one or more of the included disciplines, but we do not currently have access to a similar repository. With that said, it is highly unlikely that an exact dataset corresponding to the specifics of this study exist in any form elsewhere, thus justifying the creation of new data for this study in the absence of suitable existing data. Data collected here will bridge the gap between global aggregated literatures on youth and citizenship separated by discipline on the one hand, and a new dataset offering an integrated literature analysis of different fields of study. The data sources are available in bibliographic format and attached via csv document. The dataset relies on the following information taken from the data sources: specific identifying information about the text itself (title/author/year/publisher); and abstract or summarizing information either taken directly from the text or summarized by the researcher. Finally, the aggregated literature review spreadsheet constitutes raw data which can be reused by researchers who want to compare our data with similar data collected in different countries, or to perform textual analysis (content analysis and/or data mining) on our data.
