    The future of religious education in Europe

    Get PDF
    This E-book is the result of a workshop on “The future of religious education in Europe”, hosted by the Robert Schuman Centre for Advanced Studies at the European University Institute in Florence on 28 October 2014.This small volume covers the entire conceptual range of approaches to religious education in public schools. The papers gathered in this publication cover the conceptual debate on the subject, ranging from a confessional approach to a sociological approach with an inclusive model as the middle-position. The different models diverge on how they define, in the context of public schooling for children aged 6 to 14 years, what religious education is aimed at: is that what should be conveyed knowledge about religion or instead religious knowledge? Should pupils become cognitively equipped to recognize and discuss religious diversity, or should they first become literate in one, presumably “their own” religious tradition?-- I Kristina Stoeckl – Knowledge about religion and religious knowledge in secular societies: introductory remarks to The future of religious education in Europe -- II Robert Jackson – Inclusive Study of Religions and other Worldviews in Publicly-funded Schools in Democratic Societies -- III Valeria Fabretti – Rethinking Religious Education sociologically: A contribution to the European debate and comparison -- IV Joachim Willems – Religious Education and the Student’s Fundamental Right to Freedom of Religion – Some Lessons and Questions from Germany -- V Matthias Scharer, Innsbruck – “Learning Religion” in the Presence of the Other: Provocation and Gift in Public Educatio

    Forward-backward asymmetry of Drell-Yan lepton pairs in pp collisions at root s=8 TeV

    A measurement of the forward–backward asymmetry AFBAFB of oppositely charged lepton pairs ( ΌΌΌΌ and eeee ) produced via Z/γ∗Z/γ∗ boson exchange in pp collisions at s√=8s=8 TeVTeV is presented. The data sample corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 19.7 fb−1fb−1 collected with the CMS detector at the LHC. The measurement of AFBAFB is performed for dilepton masses between 40 GeVGeV and 2 TeVTeV and for dilepton rapidity up to 5. The AFBAFB measurements as a function of dilepton mass and rapidity are compared with the standard model predictions

    Measurement of jet multiplicity distributions in (Formula presented.) production in pp collisions at (Formula presented.)

    The normalised differential top quark-antiquark production cross section is measured as a function of the jet multiplicity in proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 7 TeV at the LHC with the CMS detector. The measurement is performed in both the dilepton and lepton+jets decay channels using data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 5.0 fb(-1). Using a procedure to associate jets to decay products of the top quarks, the differential cross section of the t (t) over bar production is determined as a function of the additional jet multiplicity in the lepton+jets channel. Furthermore, the fraction of events with no additional jets is measured in the dilepton channel, as a function of the threshold on the jet transverse momentum. The measurements are compared with predictions from perturbative quantum chromodynamics and no significant deviations are observed
