Abstract: 
This book presents up-to-date empirical research on crucial questions of
political socialisation. It suggests new approaches and answers to a
classic, but still valid question of political socialisation research:
‘Who learns what from whom, under what circumstances, and with what
effects?’ (Greenstein 1965: 13).
The volume maintains that political socialisation is no universal or
independent phenomenon, but one significantly shaped by the surrounding
parameters of the society in which it is embedded. Therefore, deficits
in political socialisation research have become especially clear in
light of political and societal changes over recent decades.
The book contributes to two important discussions in the study of
political socialisation: first, the question of the (relative)
importance of socialisation agents and contexts, second – inextricably
interwoven with the first – the timing of political socialisation. From a
European perspective, articles in the volume shed light on old problems
and topics of the field, using new methodological approaches or dealing
with long-neglected perspectives such as young children’s democratic
learning or political socialisation.
