    Abstract: Learning remorse at wrongdoing is tough, especially for children. However, having a few little words to help show that remorse can really speed the process of making up for saying mean things, not sharing, or being rude. Readers see the many situations in which the words "I'm sorry" should be used, including scenarios they may encounter in school or at home. Understandable language helps introduce this important concept and explains how much better everyone feels when an apology is given

    Abstract: Werbung setzt Themen, prägt Moden und Stile, sie macht Produkte und Botschaften zum ›Talk of the town‹. Zugleich synchronisiert sich die Werbung mit dem Zeitgeist, dem Geschmack und den Vorlieben ihrer Zielgruppen. Um anzukommen kopiert, montiert, recyclet sie alles, was bereits gefällt.

    Abstract: Entwicklungstheorie befasst sich mit sozialem Wandel und globaler Ungleichheit - meist aus der impliziten Perspektive des Westens. Dennoch finden sich hier bisweilen innovative Stimmen, denen der vorliegende Band ein Forum bietet. Dabei versammelt er unterschiedlichste Perspektiven: politökonomische und postkoloniale, spieltheoretische und wissenssoziologische, Modernisierungstheorie und Weltsystemtheorie. Vor allem aber unterzieht er die Entwicklungstheorie selbst einer kritischen Reflexion. Aram Ziai ist Sprecher der Sektion Entwicklungstheorie und Entwicklungspolitik der Deutschen Vereini

    Abstract: Das Feld von Bewegung, Spiel und Sport ist für viele Jungen identitätsstiftend und hochbedeutsam. Über 50 Prozent aller Jungen sind Mitglied eines Sportvereins, 75 Prozent der Jungen bezeichnen Sport als ihr Lieblingsfach in der Schule. Gleichwohl gibt es bislang keine systematische Aufarbeitung der pädagogischen Möglichkeiten einer Jungenförderung im und durch Sport. Der Sammelband vereint Beiträge zur Jungenforschung aus unterschiedlichen Wissenschaftsdisziplinen im Hinblick auf das besondere Potenzial von Bewegung, Spiel und Sport für eine geschlechtssensible Förderung. Neben allgemeinen Grundlagen werden empirische Studien und Förderkonzepte vorgestellt.

    Abstract: This book presents the most serious and comprehensive study, by far, of American public perceptions about the meaning of space exploration, analyzing vast troves of questionnaire data collected by many researchers and polling firms over a span of six decades and anchored in influential social science theories. It doesn't simply report the percentages who held various opinions, but employs sophisticated statistical techniques to answer profound questions and achieve fresh discoveries. Both the Bush and the Obama administrations have cut back severely on fundamental research in space science and engineering. Understanding better what space exploration means for citizens can contribute to charting a feasible but progressive course. Since the end of the Space Race between the US and the USSR, social scientists have almost completely ignored space exploration as a topic for serious analysis and this book seeks to revive that kind of contribution. The author communicates the insights in a lucid style, not only intelligible but interesting to readers from a variety of backgrounds.

    Abstract: Social network analysis increasingly bridges the discovery of patterns in diverse areas of study as more data becomes available and complex. Yet the construction of huge networks from large data often requires entirely different approaches for analysis including; graph theory, statistics, machine learning and data mining. This work covers frontier studies on social network analysis and mining from different perspectives such as social network sites, financial data, e-mails, forums, academic research funds, XML technology, blog content, community detection and clique finding, prediction of user's- behavior, privacy in social network analysis, mobility from spatio-temporal point of view, agent technology and political parties in parliament. These topics will be of interest to researchers and practitioners from different disciplines including, but not limited to, social sciences and engineering.

    Abstract: This book is about the question of existence, the meaning of 'life'. It is an enquiry into the contemporary human situation as disclosed by television. The elementary components of any real-world situation are place, people and time. These are first examined as basic existential phenomena drawing on Heidegger's fundamental enquiry into the human situation in Being and Time. They are then explored through the technological and production care-structures of broadcast television which, routinely and exceptionally, display the situated experience of being alive and living in the world today. It shows routinely in the live self-enactments of persons being themselves and the liveness of their ordinary talk on television. It shows exceptionally in television coverage of great occasions and catastrophes as they unfold live and in real time. Case studies reveal the existential role of television in salvaging the possibility of genuine experience, and in revealing the world-historical character of life today. To explore these questions, the agenda of sociology - its concern with economic, political and cultural life - is set aside. Being in the world is not, in the first (or last) instance, a social but an existential question, as an existential enquiry into television today discovers. Passionate and sweeping in scale, this new book from a leading media scholar is a major contribution to our understanding of the media today.

    Abstract: Visuelle Kultur ist zu einem wichtigen interdisziplinären Forschungsfeld geworden. Die Dominanz der Bilder und ihre globale Zirkulation in der Gegenwart haben in der Wissenschaft zu einer Hinwendung zum Bildlichen geführt, dessen Bedeutung und Relevanz herausgestellt und analysiert wird. Erforscht wird vor allem die kulturelle Konstruktion des Visuellen. Wie wird durch kulturelle Bildpraxen Bedeutung in einer zunehmend visuellen Welt geschaffen und übermittelt?

    Abstract: "Description Cultural geography is a major, vibrant subdiscipline of human geography. Cultural geographers have done some of the most important, exciting and thought-provokingly zesty work in human geography over the last half-century. This book exists to provide an introduction to the remarkably diverse, controversial, and sometimes-infuriating work of cultural geographers. The book outlines how cultural geography in its various forms provides a rich body of research about cultural practices and politics in diverse contexts. Cultural geography offers a major resource for exploring the importance of cultural materials, media, texts and representations in particular contexts and is one of the most theoretically adventurous subdisciplines within human geography, engaging with many important lines of social and cultural theory. The book has been designed to provide an accessible, wide-ranging and thought-provoking introduction for students studying cultural geography, or specific topics within this subdiscipline. Through a wide range of case studies and learning activities, it provides an engaging introduction to cultural geography"--

Concentrating on the realm of social reproduction - gender, family, education, culture and tradition, race, ethnicity the contributors provide both an articulation of a theory of territory and reproduction and concrete empirical analyses of the evolution of social practices in particular places. At the core of the book's contribution is the concept of society as a 'time-space' fabric, upon which are engraved the processes of political, economic and socio-cultural life.

    Abstract: This book examines, through a multi-disciplinary lens, the possibilities offered by relationships and family forms that challenge the nuclear family ideal, and some of the arguments that recommend or disqualify these as legitimate units in our societies. That children should be conceived naturally, born to and raised by their two young, heterosexual, married to each other, genetic parents; that this relationship between parents is also the ideal relationship between romantic or sexual partners; and that romance and sexual intimacy ought to be at the core of our closest personal relationships -

    Abstract: Most people believe that intimacy is a unitary construct-that is, that it is made up of only one component. Dr. Bagarozzi demonstrates how intimacy is comprised of at least nine separate subcomponents. The degree to which partners can meet the intimacy needs of their mates in all nine areas is critical to marital satisfaction. Building upon the foundations of the author's Enhancing Intimacy Program, which he developed and utilized in his own practice with clients, Enhancing Intimacy in Marriage explores the ways in which intimacy is demonstrated and communicated between married partners.

Although many publications have discussed the way in which globalization has changed the nature of boundaries, space and the movement of peoples, there is a wide gap in a literature that rarely addresses the reaction of local communities and inclusion for some stakeholders in decision making while excluding others, particularly in regard to global integration of industry, the legislation of planning, and trade.

    Abstract: The vast majority of research in social psychology focuses on momentary events: an attitude is changed, dissonance is reduced, a cognition is primed, and so on. Little attention is a paid to the unfolding of events over time, to social life as an ongoing process in which events are related in various ways as life unfolds. Originally published in 1984, Historical Social Psychology opens a space for theory and research in which temporal process is central. Contributors to this broad-ranging work provide a rich range of perspectives, from the theoretical to the methodological, from micro-sequence

    Abstract: This volume explores the politics of identity by analysing the intersections between ethnicity, gender and nationalism in developing societies. These markers of identity are not understood as constituting essences, but as springing from people's core experiences, yearnings and strategic life plans in a context where resources are scarce. As such, identities may be, and are, contested. The intersections are traced across three areas: social and cultural reproduction; ideologies, stereotypes and practices; and nationalist politics and discourse which has tended to remove women from the public ar

It avoids the 'traditional' presentation of the North Caucasus as a locus of violence, and instead presents the life of people in the region through the lens of the young generation growing up there.Using focus groups with teachers and students of different ethnic groups, as well as surveys and essays written by children, the book suggests that wh

    Abstract: How did children feel in the Middle Ages and early modern times? How did adults feel about the children around them? This collection addresses these fundamental but rarely asked questions about social and family relations by bringing together two emerging fields within cultural history - childhood and emotion - and provides avenues through which to approach their shared histories. Bringing together a wide range of material and sources such as court records, self-narratives and educational manuals, this collection sheds a new light on the subject.

    Abstract: The Contradictions of Love: Towards a feminist-realist ontology of sociosexuality offers a robust and multifaceted theoretical account of how, in contemporary western societies, women continue to be subordinated to men through sexual love. The book defends and elaborates Anna G. Jónasdóttir's thesis that men tend to exploit women of their 'love power', by means of an innovative application of critical realism, dialectical critical realism and the philosophy of metaReality. Gunnarson also offers a critique of the state of affairs of contemporary feminist theory.The author demonstrates that the

    Abstract: South Asia's diaspora is among the world's largest and most widespread, and it is growing exponentially. It is estimated that over 25 million persons of Indian descent live abroad; and many more millions have roots in other countries of the subcontinent, in Pakistan, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka. There are 3 million South Asians in the UK and approximately the same number resides in North America. South Asians are an extremely significant presence in Southeast Asia and Africa, and increasingly visible in the Middle East.

    Keywords: Three-dimensional imaging - History ; Electronic books ; Electronic books
    Abstract: There is a blind spot in recent accounts of the history, theory and aesthetics of optical media: namely, the field of the three-dimensional, or trans-plane, image. It has been widely used in the 20th century for very different practices - military, scientific and medical visualization - precisely because it can provide more spatial information. And now in the 21st century, television and film are employing the method even more. Appearing for the first time in English, Jens Schroeter's comprehensive study of the aesthetics of the 3D image is a major scholarly addition to this evolving field. Ci

Durch politische Sprache werden Bedrohung und Unsicherheit gezielt konstruiert, so dass sich Gesetze legitimieren lassen, die andernfalls kaum mehrheitsfähig wären. Am Beispiel der politischen Debatten um die Einführung der Vorratsdatenspeicherung und der Online-Durchsuchung (BKA-Gesetz) untersucht Matthias Schulze den sicherheitspolitischen Diskurs nach eben solchen Bedrohungskonstruktionen. Wer sind dabei die zentralen Unsicherheitsproduzenten und wie gehen sie vor? Wie werden Unsicherheit und Bedrohung sprachlich konstruiert, um damit

    Abstract: Neid ist eine alltägliche Emotion. Jeder hat dieses Gefühl schon einmal erlebt. Doch obwohl Neid in unserer Gesellschaft allgegenwärtig ist, wird er oft verdrängt und ist fast immer negativ konnotiert. Dabei beinhaltet der Neid neben den als destruktiv angesehenen Komponenten ebenso konstruktive. Sprichwörter wie ""Wer neidet, der leidet"" im Gegensatz zu ""Neid ist die höchste Form der Anerkennung"" zeugen von dieser Ambivalenz.

    Abstract: Research into the impact of the First World War on European societies has recently begun on a major scale and Dr Waites has been one of the pioneers in this field in Britain. His book considers the War's effects on such major issues as popular images of class, the distribution of income and wealth in society, social relations within the working class, class consciousness and the educational experiences of children from different backgrounds. This study is noteworthy not only for its wide range of hitherto unpublished sources, but also for its attempt to bring social theory to bear upon the stu

    Abstract: Though there has been much research on the incomplete emancipation project of state socialism in East and Central Europe, very little has been published on how the state and its institutions conceived of gender as a concept. This book seeks to understand if and how this conceptualization developed in the second half of the twentieth century, and what impact it had on everyday life and on culture. This study moves beyond the dichotomous gender perspectives and towards a nuanced understanding of the diverse discursive negotiations, agendas, actors and agency involved in state-socialist gender pr

    Abstract: Finally, here is an enlightening and empowering book that defines motherhood from a feminist perspective and then explores the implications of that definition. Feminist authors examine some of women's full, rich, and varied thoughts and experiences about motherhood. In contrast to the too often accepted male notions of what constitutes a "good'mother or a "normal" family, this important book presents a comprehensive and balanced view of motherhood--as women have observed and experienced it. The major issues surrounding motherhood today are closely examined--the pervasive problem of mother-blam

    Abstract: J.K. Evans' pioneering work explores the profound changes in the social, economic and legal condition of Roman women, which, it is argued, were necessary consequences of two centuries of near-continuous warfare as Rome expanded from city-state to empire. Bridging the gap that has isolated the specialised studies of Roman women and children from the more traditional political and social concerns of historians, J.K. Evans' investigation ranges from Cicero's wife Terentia to the anonymous spouse of the peasant-soldier Ligustinus, charting the severe erosion of the very institutions that kept wome

For the first time in history, the development of rapid forms of communication and transportation shrunk the effective size of the world so that many of its citizens were made aware of events occurring in far-distant locations and came to appreciate cultural differences more directly than was previously possible. Among the many trends and events for which the century may be remembered, however, one will surely be the ascendancy of science and

    Abstract: This new book offers a timely and lively appraisal of the concept of communicative repertoires, resources we use to express who we are when in dialogue with others. Each chapter describes and illustrates the communicative resources humans deploy daily, but rarely think about - not only the multiple languages we use, but how we dress or gesture, how we greet each other or tell stories, the nicknames we coin, and the mass media references we make - and how these resources combine in infinitely varied performances of identity. Rymes also discusses how our repertoires shift and grow over the cours

    Abstract: With the full effects of the Great Recession still unfolding, this collection of essays analyses the gendered economic impacts of the crisis. The volume, from an international set of contributors, argues that gender-differentiated economic roles and responsibilities within households and markets can potentially influence the ways in which men and women are affected in times of economic crisis.Looking at the economy through a gender lens, the contributors investigate the antecedents and consequences of the ongoing crisis as well as the recovery policies adopted in selected countries.

    Abstract: The proliferation of media and their ever-increasing role in our daily life has produced a strong sense that understanding media--everything from oral storytelling, literary narrative, newspapers, and comics to radio, film, TV, and video games--is key to understanding the dynamics of culture and society. Storyworlds across Media explores how media, old and new, give birth to various types of storyworlds and provide different ways of experiencing them, inviting readers to join an ongoing theoretical conversation focused on the question: how can narratology achieve media-consciousness? The first part of the volume critically assesses the cross- and transmedial validity of narratological concepts such as storyworld, narrator, representation of subjectivity, and fictionality. The second part deals with issues of multimodality and intermediality across media. The third part explores the relation between media convergence and transmedial storyworlds, examining emergent forms of storytelling based on multiple media platforms. Taken together, these essays build the foundation for a media-conscious narratology that acknowledges both similarities and differences in the ways media narrate

    Abstract: This book addresses the increasing role of queer politics within forms of Islamophobia, both by exploring the framing of lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) issues as a key marker of western superiority and by identifying the ways in which Muslim homophobia contributes to this dialectic, No one can doubt that Muslim cultures and Muslim populations are under intense scrutiny in the west and worldwide. Moreover, queer politics has been increasingly drawn into this contemporary Islamophobia. This book presents a detailed interdisciplinary study of the issues surrounding homosexuality and Muslim cultures, drawing on sociological theories of modernity and modernization, evidence of Muslim homo-eroticism in historical and contemporary context, and contemporary political ideas of queer politics, multiculturalism and international development. The book presents an original theoretical framework that describes the ways in which both queer and Muslim politics are caught up in a process of triangulation that asserts the superiority of western civilization. Using an intersectional framework, it also begins to map a way out of this oppositional understanding of homosexuality and Islam, both by drawing on the evidence of the complexity of lived experience for Queer Muslims and by challenging the euro-centric conceits of queer political and social theory
    Abstract: "Momin's book is one of the best analysis of homosexuality and modern Muslim identity to appear recently. While the book is an in depth look at the current debates about Muslims and modernity, its theoretical tools are fundamental to understanding the complex notion of modernity. It reminded me of Timothy Mitchel's The Colonization of Egypt. Momin's book is a comprehensive work, exhaustively researched, judicious in its assessment and sets forth a theoretical model that will alter the way we understand Muslim modernity. An outstanding work. Its implications go to the heart of the debate about what modernity means." - Walid Saleh, Professor of Islamic Studies, University of Toronto, Canada "This book navigates deftly through the fraught relationship of Islam and homosexuality, pulling apart the quick equation of the West with the modern liberal embrace of gay rights and Islam with the opposite. Offering both personal and theoretical reflections, this is the landmark study that sets the standard for scholarship on the nexus between gay and Muslim." - Barry Adam, Professor of Sociology, University of Windsor, Canada

    Abstract: Das Thema Geschlechtergerechtigkeit in Organisationen hat Hochkonjunktur. Diskussionen um Frauenquoten, Kampagnen für mehr Frauen in Aufsichtsräten, Strategien wie Diversity Management und Gender Mainstreaming prägen den gesellschaftlichen Diskurs. Aufgrund der demografischen Entwicklungen in Deutschland wird die Debatte zunehmend mit ökonomischen Argumenten geführt. Dieses Buch widmet sich der Frage, welche Rolle arbeitsweltbezogener Beratung auf dem Weg zur Geschlechtergerechtigkeit zukommt.

    Abstract: Stakeholders show a growing interest for organic food and farming (OF&F), which becomes a societal component. Rather than questioning whether OF&F outperforms conventional agriculture or not, the main question addressed in this book is how, and in what conditions, OF&F may be considered as a prototype towards sustainable agricultures. The book gathers 25 papers introduced in a first chapter. The first section investigates OF&F production processes and its capacity to benefit from the systems functioning to achieve higher self-sufficiency. The second one proposes an overview of organic performances providing commodities and public goods. The third one focuses on organics development pathways within agri-food systems and territories. As well as?a strong theoretical component, this book provides an overview of the new challenges for research and development. It questions the benefits as well as knowledge gaps with a particular emphasis on bottlenecks and lock-in effects at various levels.

    Abstract: New York Times Bestseller A collection of essays spanning politics, criticism, and feminism from one of the most-watched young cultural observers of her generation, Roxane Gay. "Pink is my favorite color. I used to say my favorite color was black to be cool, but it is pink-all shades of pink. If I have an accessory, it is probably pink. I read Vogue, and I'm not doing it ironically, though it might seem that way. I once live-tweeted the September issue." In these funny and insightful essays, Roxane Gay takes us through the journey of her evolution as a woman (Sweet Valley High) of color (The Help) while also taking readers on a ride through culture of the last few years (Girls, Django in Chains) and commenting on the state of feminism today (abortion, Chris Brown). The portrait that emerges is not only one of an incredibly insightful woman continually growing to understand herself and our society, but also one of our culture. Bad Feminist is a sharp, funny, and spot-on look at the ways in which the culture we consume becomes who we are, and an inspiring call-to-arms of all the ways we still need to do better.

    Abstract: Ein Change Management in Unternehmen gelingt nur, wenn es mit den Menschen vollzogen wird, die in der Organisation wirken. Nur die Menschen können neue Strukturen mit neuem Leben erfüllen. Sie können einen Wandlungsprozess aber auch scheitern lassen, wenn sie Widerstand leisten. Die Autoren demonstrieren ganz praxisbezogen, wie es gelingt, die wesentlichen gruppendynamischen Prozesse zu identifizieren, ihre Kräfte positiv zu nutzen und zerstörerische Energien in Schach zu halten. Die Autoren beschreiben konkrete Instrumente, mit denen verantwortliche Manager, Berater sowie Menschen, die von Wandlungsprozessen betroffen sind, das eigene Verhaltensrepertoire erweitern können. Dieses Buch trägt dazu bei, das Geschehen rund um Change Management zu entmythologisieren. 'Ein Volltreffer! Die Autoren holen endlich die Gruppendynamik aus der Expertenecke und machen auf verständliche Weise deutlich: Wer Veränderungen steuern will, muss die Energie der zwischenmenschlichen Dynamik verstehen - und nutzen!' Brigitta Lentz, Capital Klaus Doppler (Abb.) ist Spezialist für die Begleitung des Umbaus angesehener Unternehmen sowie staatlicher Institutionen. Er ist Autor des Klassikers »Change Management«. Bert Voigt und Birgitt Lebbe-Waschke sind seit vielen Jahren als selbstständige Organisations- und Managementberater sowie als Trainer tätig. Hellmuth Fuhrmann ist vor Drucklegung der 1. Auflage dieses Buches verstorben.

    Abstract: Welchen Einfluss haben Macht- und Herrschaftsverhältnisse, die sich im Zuge eines gewaltsamen Konfliktaustrags neu herausbilden, auf den Verlauf und die Ergebnisse von Friedensprozessen? Am Beispiel des philippinischen Mindanao zeigt Sonja Grigat, wie friedenspolitische Maßnahmen Konfliktakteuren zu Machtmitteln werden, mithilfe derer sie Herrschaftsansprüche durchzusetzen versuchen. Anders als häufig angenommen richtet sich ihr Kampf dabei auf die Etablierung staatlicher Herrschaft. Zudem wird die Aufmerksamkeit wieder stärker auf die Herausforderungen gelenkt, die sich aus der politischen Dimension konstruktiver Konfliktbearbeitung ergeben. Sonja Grigat, Dr. phil., ist wissenschaftliche Mitarbeiterin am Institut für Politikwissenschaft an der Universität Magdeburg.

    Abstract: Das Buch präsentiert Forschungsergebnisse eines interdisziplinär angelegten Städtevergleichs, der sich auf Differenzen und Eigenheiten städtischer Wahrnehmungs- und Handlungsmuster richtet. Analysiert werden Friseursalons, Stadtkrimis, Mediendiskurse und Stadtmarketingmaßnahmen in den vier Städten Birmingham, Dortmund, Glasgow und Frankfurt am Main. Dabei wird deutlich, wie unterschiedlich die genannten Städte sind: Sie »ticken« verschieden, und zwar aus sich heraus.

Julika Griem ist Professorin für Anglistische Literaturwissenschaft an der Universität Frankfurt. Michael Haus ist Professur für Moderne Politische Theorie an der Universität Heidelberg.
