    Abstract: Blood is more than a fluid solution of cells, platelets and plasma. It is a symbol for the most basic of human concerns--life, death and family find expression in rituals surrounding everything from menstruation to human sacrifice. Comprehensive in its scope and provocative in its argument, this book examines beliefs and rituals concerning blood in a range of regional and religious contexts throughout human history. Meyer reveals the origins of a wide range of blood rituals, from the earliest surviving human symbolism of fertility and the hunt, to the Jewish bris, and the clitoridectomies given to young girls in parts of Africa. The book also explores how cultural practices influence gene selection and makes a connection with the natural sciences by exploring how color perception influences the human proclivity to create blood symbols and rituals.

    Abstract: Das Buch ‚Partizipation von Jugendlichen - ein Kinderspiel?' ist in einer Kooperation von Julia Verena Köffer (Sozialwirtschaft B.A., Jugendhilfe M.A.) mit Simon Schnetzer (Dipl. Volkswirt), Geschäftsführer von ‚DATAJOCKEY: Social Research & Dialogue', entstanden. Im Rahmen der Kooperation wurde das Jugendforschungs- und Beteiligungsprojekt 'junge Deutsche' mit Methoden der Qualitativen Sozialforschung ausgewertet. Erkenntnisinteresse der Auswertung war die Beantwortung der Frage: Wie müssen kommunale Beteiligungsprozesse gestaltet werden, um erfolgreich zu sein? Für die qualitative Studie wurden im Zeitraum von Juni bis August 2013 mündliche Befragungen in Form von ExpertInneninterviews und Gruppendiskussionen mit TeilnehmerInnen des Projektes 'junge Deutsche' durchgeführt. Die Ergebnisse dieser mündlichen Befragungen wurden anhand einer Qualitativen Analyse aufbereitet und stellten die Grundlage, für die von den Autoren entwickelten Handlungsempfehlungen für Beteiligungsprozesse von Jugendlichen im kommunalen Raum dar. Um diese Handlungsempfehlungen in einen Kontext zu stellen, wird in Teil 1 des Buches auf die Partizipation Jugendlicher als Handlungsmaxime von Jugendarbeit eingegangen. Im zweiten Teil werden die Rahmenbedingungen der Partizipation junger Menschen im kommunalen Raum dargestellt. Zum einen wird mit dem vorliegenden Buch die Intention verfolgt einen Überblick über das Feld der Partizipation Heranwachsender in der Kommune zu geben. Zum anderen kann mit den Handlungsempfehlungen für Beteiligungsprozesse im kommunalen Raum zur Beantwortung der Frage, wie die Partizipation junger Menschen in ihrem Wohnumfeld gelingen kann, beigetragen werden. Auszug aus dem TextTextprobe:Kapitel 2, Partizipation von Jugendlichen im kommunalen Raum:Der zweite Teil des vorliegenden Buches geht näher auf die Partizipation von Jugendlichen im kommunalen...
    Abstract: Raum ein. In diesem Zusammenhang wird der Schwerpunkt auf die Gestaltung von Beteiligungsprozessen im Lebensumfeld junger Menschen gelegt. Zu diesem Zweck wird zu Beginn in Kapitel 2.1 aus verschiedenen Perspektiven begründet, warum die Partizipation in der Kommune nicht ausschließlich einen Selbstzweck verfolgt, sondern sowohl den jungen Menschen selbst als auch den Kommunen nützt.2.1, Begründungszusammenhänge:Argumente für die Partizipation von jungen Menschen im kommunalen Raum finden sich in verschiedenen Fachdiskursen: unter anderem in der Rechtswissenschaft, der Politikwissenschaft oder der Pädagogik. Im ersten Teil dieser Veröffentlichung wurde aus dem Blickwinkel der Rechtswissenschaft argumentiert, warum die Partizipation junger Menschen an sie betreffenden Angelegenheiten notwendig ist. An dieser Stelle wird die Bedeutsamkeit der Beteiligung Heranwachsender in der Kommune zuerst aus politischer Sichtweise und schließlich aus pädagogischer Perspektive begründet. Diese beiden Zugänge spielen im Kontext dieser Untersuchung eine besondere Rolle, da sich das Handlungsfeld Jugendarbeit genau in ihrer Schnittmenge befindet (vgl. Moser 2010, S. 87). Vollständigkeitshalber wird zum Abschluss dieses Kapitels noch auf Gegenargumente der Partizipation junger Menschen in ihrem Lebensumfeld eingegangen.2.1.1, Politische Argumente:Gemäß dem partizipatorischen Demokratieverständnis ist Partizipation die aktive Praxis der Demokratie (vgl. Knauer/Sturzenhecker 2005, S. 68). Dieses Verständnis will die Beteiligung möglichst Vieler an möglichst Vielem - sprich '(…) an der Erörterung, Aushandlung und Entscheidung möglichst vieler öffentlicher Angelegenheiten' (Koopmann 2008, S. 5). Dadurch sollen die Legitimität, Stabilität und Regierbarkeit des demokratischen Systems erhöht werden. Dieses Steuerungssystem ist als 'Good Governance' (ebd.) bekannt und
    Abstract: zeichnet sich neben Transparenz und Kooperation, wesentlich durch die Stärkung der Bürgerschaft im Sinne von Empowerment (siehe 1.3.3) aus. Dieser Ansatz ist mit dem idealtypischen BürgerInnenbild der 'citoyens' (Koopmann 2008, S. 5) verbunden: Der Bürgerschaft, die aktiv und eigenverantwortlich am Gemeinwesen teilnimmt und dieses mitgestaltet (vgl. ebd.). Nach dem 'Dreiklang' der Bürgerarbeit ist die Voraussetzung für die Beteiligung von BürgerInnen allerdings, dass sie es wollen, können und dürfen (vgl. Gernbauer 2008, S. 17). Damit Heranwachsende überhaupt die Chance bekommen diesem Ideal gerecht zu werden, müssen die notwendigen Rahmenbedingungen, in Form von personellen, finanziellen und zeitlichen Ressourcen für Partizipation seitens der Kommunen geschaffen werden (vgl. Koopmann 2008, S. 5). Dadurch könnte der Partizipation Jugendlicher an kommunalen Planungs- und Entscheidungsprozessen sogar ein präventiver Charakter zugesprochen werden: Durch ihre Beteiligung wird jungen Menschen die Möglichkeit gegeben ihre Meinungen, Interessen und Ängste zu formulieren. Folglich können die Bedürfnisse der jungen Generation besser abgebildet, in Bedarfe umformuliert und politische Planungs- und Entscheidungsprozesse optimiert werden. Diese effiziente Steuerung kann die Jugendhilfeplanung einer Kommune verbessern, trägt zur Kinder- und Jugendfreundlichkeit bei und steigert unter dem Strich die Attraktivität eines Standortes (vgl. Bertelsmann Stiftung 2008, S. 37 ff.).2.1.2, Pädagogische Argumente:Die Entwicklung von Selbstständigkeit gewinnt vor dem Hintergrund gesellschaftlicher Trends, wie der Individualisierung oder Pluralisierung von Lebensformen, immer mehr an Bedeutung. Um diese Fähigkeit zu erlernen, müssen junge Menschen Freiräume zugestanden bekommen, in denen sie sich ausprobieren und in unsere Gesellschaft einbringen können (vgl. Moser 2010, S.
    Abstract: 90). Eine Möglichkeit Freiräume zu gewähren ist die Beteiligung Jugendlicher an kommunalen Planungs- und Entscheidungsprozessen. Da Partizipation als ein zentraler Faktor in der Entwicklung von Selbst-, Sozial- und Methodenkompetenzen gesehen werden kann und somit zu gesellschaftlicher Anerkennung und der Steigerung des Selbstwertgefühls führt, kann sie als ein erfolgreiches Integrationsinstrument bezeichnet werden (vgl. Bertelsmann Stiftung 2008, S. 37). Gemäß dem Gedanken des Empowermentansatzes, die Autonomie und Selbstbestimmung junger Menschen zu fördern, ist die Beteiligung von Jugendlichen an kommunalen Planungs- und Entscheidungsprozessen obligatorisch. Damit junge Menschen mit ihrer Freiheit adäquat umgehen können, müssen sie jedoch dazu befähigt werden. Die 'Krux' dabei ist, dass die Erziehenden bei der Gewährung von Freiräumen stets vor dem - für pädagogische Prozesse klassischen - Dilemma stehen '(…) Kindern und Jugendlichen als ExpertInnen ihrer selbst partnerschaftlich zu begegnen und sie gleichzeitig vor Überforderungen zu schützen' (Moser 2010, S. 90). Partizipationsmodelle, die versuchen mit diesem Paradox umzugehen, fordern die Mündigkeit von Heranwachsenden heraus, indem sie ihnen Freiräume bieten, in denen sie selbstbestimmt handeln können. Wenn diese Voraussetzungen gegeben sind, verfolgt Partizipation nicht nur einen Selbstzweck, sondern dient auch dem Gemeinwesen: Denn wenn junge Menschen als ExpertInnen in eigener Sache ernst genommen werden, können sie Erwachsenen bei der Bewältigung gesellschaftlicher Herausforderungen und der Entwicklung innovativer Lösungsansätze im kommunalen Raum behilflich sein. Dadurch kann zum Dialog der Generationen angestiftet, Konflikte minimiert und das Gemeinwesen belebt werden (vgl. Bertelsmann Stiftung 2008, S. 37 ff.).2.1.3, Gegenargumente:In den vorangegangenen zwei Kapiteln wurde die
    Abstract: Partizipation von Jugendlichen im kommunalen Raum aus politischer und pädagogischer Perspektive begründet. Diese Argumentationsstränge können als Chancen kommunaler Beteiligungsprozesse junger Menschen gesehen werden. Doch die Forderung nach der Beteiligung junger Menschen in ihrem Wohnumfeld stößt in ihrer Umsetzung auch an ihre Grenzen. Zwei besonders relevante Gegenargumente werden an dieser Stelle kurz dargestellt, um verständlich zu machen, warum Partizipation ihrem Anspruch in der Praxis oftmals nicht gerecht wird:Als eine Grenze kommunaler Beteiligungsprozesse junger Menschen kann der Umstand bezeichnet werden, dass Heranwachsende in der Praxis oftmals nicht als Subjekte, sondern als Objekte, demokratischer Entscheidungen gesehen werden (vgl. Knauer/Sturzenhecker 2005, S. 64). Dieses Muster ist in gewisser Weise paternalistisch: Denn Beteiligungsmöglichkeiten, die BürgerInnen sanft stimmen sollen, anstatt sie zu emanzipieren, nennt Reimer Gronemeyer 'apathische Partizipation' (Gronemeyer 1973). Diese Art der Partizipation ist in der Praxis nach wie vor auf allen Ebenen - von der Europäischen Union bis zu Lokalpolitik - weit verbreitet. Apathische Partizipation verfolgt das Ziel Heranwachsende in gegebene Strukturen einzufügen. Dadurch wird die politische Praxis nicht hinsichtlich Zugangsbarrieren für junge Menschen hinterfragt, sondern lediglich in ein gutes Licht gerückt (vgl. Knauer/Sturzenhecker 2005, S. 65). In solchen Partizipationsmodellen kann folglich eher von Scheinpartizipation als von emanzipatorischer Partizipation gesprochen werden.Eine weitere Grenze der Partizipation junger Menschen im kommunalen Raum ist die Kritik am Steuerungssystem Good Governance. Diese Kritik geht davon aus, dass die Partizipation möglichst Vieler an möglichst Vielem zur Unregierbarkeit des Gemeinwesens führt. Demnach würde die Beteiligung junger

    Abstract: Amid the variety of human experiences, the comic occupies a distinctive place. It is simultaneously ubiquitous, relative, and fragile. In this book, Peter L. Berger reflects on the nature of the comic and its relationship to other human experiences. Originally published in 1997, the second edition includes a new preface reflecting on Berger's work in the intervening years, particularly on the relationship between humor and modernity.

    Abstract: This book is about the Basel Mission in the Gold Coast (now Ghana) before the First World War. Miller reconstructs the backgrounds and motivations of the mission's participants and describes the organizational structure that shaped their activities at home and abroad. He then traces some serious and recurrent internal problems to the commitment to difficult Pietist beliefs about authority and obedience. The organization survived those troubles and its impact on Ghana continued to grow, because the same biblical worldview that demanded extreme discipline also prepared the members of the mission community to sustain their efforts.

    Abstract: This volume is in part intended to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child. We are now a generation on from its formulation, and, as this varied collection of articles by leading thinkers in the field reflects, children's rights have come a long way. Yet the aim of this volume is not to look back, but to take stock and look forward. It explores subjects as diverse as socio-economic rights, corporal punishment, language and scientific progress as they relate to children and their rights, and offers new insights and new ideas. Edited by one of the most respected and leading scholars in the field, The Future of Children's Rights constitutes a stimulating and useful resource for academics and practitioners alike.

    Abstract: Throughout time, artists have maintained a close relationship with the animal world, which has proved to be an inexhaustible source of inspiration. First, they received inspiration directly from their environment. Next, animals were used in art for their status as domestic friends, symbols of an intimate and familial life, held in particularly high esteem during the Renaissance. Later, in Orientalism, animal art followed the discovery of exotic fauna which appealed to contemporary artists. The animal and its wild beauty are depicted here through works of art from Albrecht Dürer, Pieter Bruegel, Leonardo da Vinci, Katsushika Hokusai, Henri Rousseau, and Paul Klee.

    Abstract: Mark J.P. Wolf's study of imaginary worlds theorizes world-building within and across media, including literature, comics, film, radio, television, board games, video games, the Internet, and more. Building Imaginary Worlds departs from prior approaches to imaginary worlds that focused mainly on narrative, medium, or genre, and instead considers imaginary worlds as dynamic entities in and of themselves. Wolf argues that imaginary worlds-which are often transnarrative, transmedial, and transauthorial in nature-are compelling objects of inquiry for Media Studies. Chapters touch on: a theoretical analysis of how world-building extends beyond storytelling, the engagement of the audience, and the way worlds are conceptualized and experienced a history of imaginary worlds that follows their development over three millennia from the fictional islands of Homer's Odyssey to the present internarrative theory examining how narratives set in the same world can interact and relate to one another an examination of transmedial growth and adaptation, and what happens when worlds make the jump between media an analysis of the transauthorial nature of imaginary worlds, the resulting concentric circles of authorship, and related topics of canonicity, participatory worlds, and subcreation's relationship with divine Creation Building Imaginary Worlds also provides the scholar of imaginary worlds with a glossary of terms and a detailed timeline that spans three millennia and more than 1,400 imaginary worlds, listing their names, creators, and the works in which they first appeared.

    Abstract: In this paper, I argue that linguistics is a historical science in more than one sense: Not only is the object, language, embedded in time, but so is the study of it. This has consequences for our conception of language change. A central result of previous sociolinguistic analyses of spoken Copenhagen Danish, starting with Brink & Lund 1975, is that during the latter half of the 19th century the common European low back vowel (a) was differentiated in the Copenhagen speech community into at least four different vowel qualities all of them bearing both linguistic and sociolinguistic information. I present evidence from an unbroken chain of Copenhagen informants ranging from birth years 1905 until 1962-71. Various sections of this sample have been studied by different researchers using auditory classification of variants, and the total sample has been coded once more by the LANCHART centre. The analysis shows that auditory coding reveals the same patterns of differences between sociologically characterized groups but the relative figures classified as belonging to the various variants diverge quite dramatically and seem to be dependent on the age of the coder and the point in time at which the coding takes place. I suggest explanations for these facts and discuss whether this is a problem for the validity of sociolinguistic research or perhaps an inescapable condition for research within the language sciences.

    Abstract: Die jüngsten Beispiele von Gesetzesverstößen in der deutschen Wirtschaft und die entsprechende Ahndung durch staatliche Aufsichtsbehörden sowie durch die Berichterstattung der Medien zeigen, dass Gesetzestreue - Compliance - von hohem Stellenwert und aktueller Brisanz ist. Durch die Berichterstattung in den traditionellen wie auch in den Neuen Medien und die entsprechend schnellere Informationsverarbeitung erfährt die Öffentlichkeit zum einen zügiger und erhält zum anderen detaillierter Informationen über Gesetzesverstöße.Wertorientierte Unternehmensführung und -steuerung hingegen kristallisiert sich als immer bedeutender für große wie auch mittelständische Unternehmen heraus.Das vorliegende Buch behandelt vor dem Hintergrund der Corporate Compliance Problematik die Frage, welche mögliche Auswirkung sowohl die Nichtbeachtung von Recht und Gesetz als auch die Einhaltung von geltendem Recht auf den Wert eines Unternehmens hat. Daraus ergibt sich im Zusammenhang mit vorhergehenden Ausführungen die Fragestellung, ob Corporate Compliance als Teilelement wertorientierter Unternehmenssteuerung anzusehen ist. Auszug aus dem TextTextprobe:Kapitel 2.3.3.1, Organisatorische Eingliederung und Aufgaben eines Compliance Bereichs:Eine Compliance Struktur ist Bestandteil einer Compliance Organisation. Die Verantwortung für eine Compliance Struktur liegt bei der Unternehmensleitung. Je nach Größe und Komplexität des Unternehmens wird ableitend die organisatorische Struktur eines Compliance Bereichs bestimmt und entsprechende Zuständigkeiten delegiert.Ausgangspunkt für die Errichtung einer Compliance Struktur und erste Überlegungen diesbezüglich liegen in der Rechtsabteilung. Als Teil der Compliance Struktur gilt zudem, zumindest für große Unternehmen, eine interne Revision.Ein Compliance Officer (auch als Compliance Beauftragter oder Compliance Manager...
    Abstract: bezeichnet) wird - meist in Form einer Stabsfunktion unabhängig von der Rechtsabteilung - benannt als 'Informationssammelstelle' und stellt im Ergebnis den verlängerten Arm der Unternehmensleitung dar. Diese Funktion kann in größeren Unternehmen auch von einem Compliance Office wahrgenommen werden. Durch Einrichtung einer Stabsfunktion wird der Berichtsweg an die Geschäftsleitung klar definiert. Die Zusammenarbeit mit anderen unternehmensinternen Abteilungen, wie z. B. der Revision oder dem Controlling ist von Bedeutung im Zusammenhang mit dem Aufbau einer Compliance Struktur. Darüber hinaus kann ein sogenanntes Compliance Committee im Unternehmen gebildet werden, dessen Zusammensetzung variieren und aus dem Compliance Officer, Mitgliedern der Unternehmensleitung und beispielsweise Mitarbeitern der Rechtsabteilung, der operativen Unternehmensbereiche oder der Revision bestehen kann. Neben diesen Verortungsmöglichkeiten eines Compliance Bereichs besteht die Alternative der Einbindung externer Compliance Berater. Der Compliance Bereich kann - falls eine größere Organisation damit verbunden ist - zentral oder dezentral organisiert werden.Ein Compliance Bereich ist mit vielfältigen Aufgaben betraut. Zum einen sorgt eine solche Compliance Struktur dafür, dass die Unternehmensleitung bei der Durchsetzung und Überwachung der Corporate Compliance beraten und unterstützt wird. Hierbei gilt, eine Compliance Organisation zu implementieren, zu dokumentieren und weiterzuentwickeln.

    Abstract: Sexuality and the Politics of Violence offers a timely and critical exploration of issues of safety and security at the centre of responses to violence. Through a multi-disciplinary analysis, drawing on feminism, lesbian and gay studies, sociology, cultural geography, criminology and critical legal scholarship, the book offers to transform the way we understand and respond to the challenges raised by violence. It breaks new ground in its examination of the rhetoric and politics of violence, property, home, cosmopolitanism and stranger danger in the generation of safety and security. Using interviews, focus groups and surveys with lesbians and gay men, Sexuality and the Politics of Violence draws upon 'real life' experiences of safety and security. It raises some fundamental challenges to the law and order politics of existing scholarship and activism on homophobic hate crime.

    Abstract: The primary objective for this study was to conduct an empirical investigation to gather information in the form of data from adolescent males and females in the Pretoria region of South Africa. Information was gathered with respects to their level of physical aggression, verbal aggression, anger, hostility and depression. The information was used to identify whether correlations exist between the three variables anger, aggression and depression for South African adolescents.   Auszug aus dem Text Text Sample: What does the literature have to say? Introduction: Anger is the most frequently expressed emotion in childhood; this emotion continues into adolescence. The onset of puberty generates more stimuli that provokes anger in teenagers; whether these stimuli pertain to the thwarting of desires, the interruption of activities in progress, fault-finding or teasing, they have the potential to create feelings of anger (Hurlock: 1987). Dr Saunders is of the opinion that anger stems from adolescent stress and is systemic to being an adolescent (Saunders: 1998). Anger remains an emotion; when the emotion translates into action it manifests as aggression. Mann (2012) adds that chronic anger has the potential to manifest as anxiety and depression. This is supported by the work of Booth (2010) who suggests that the duration of the anger episode has the greatest impact on our health. Anger that lasts longer has the most harmful effect, while anger that dissipates fairly quickly does less harm to our bodies. As feelings of anger spill over into action there are obvious consequences but failing to express anger can also create health problems. If an adolescent feels that they are unable to express their anger appropriately or they feel that they are prevented from expressing their anger; these situations can generate anxiety and ultimately depression. The...
    Abstract: research of Chen, Rubin & Li (1997) has indicated that early aggressive behaviour is a predictor for later academic difficulties. In addition, these early signs of aggression include lying, stealing, fighting and resisting authority; while they are rather common to childhood behaviour, in adolescence unusually early or aggressive sexual behaviour, excessive drinking and the use of illicit drugs are frequent (Kellerman: 1999). Violence often occurs in schools because of less opportunity for ist expression outside of the school environment (Guggenbuhl: 1996). It is purported that the tendency towards violence is a basic human instinct. If the school environment is no longer a 'safe' environment for pupils and teachers it is imperative that the potential for aggressive behaviour is sufficiently distributed among the teaching and parental population. Hollin, Browne & Palmer (2004) indicate that family factors are partly responsible for aggressive behaviour in adolescents; sociological and sociodemographic characteristics are crucial to predictive and protective factors. If anger is commonplace in the life of adolescents and a large number of these teenagers resort to violent behaviour while others internalise their frustration; where is the connection between the components of anger, aggression and depression, if indeed there is a connection. Aggressive behaviour takes different forms depending on the situation the adolescent is in but it remains a serious problem in society. Physical, verbal and indirect aggression is a common expression of the teenager's frustration but specific risk factors for aggression are present. The child's character, his home environment, relationships with his peers, his performance at school and social and community factors are instrumental in transforming anger into aggression. Boys tend to use direct physical or verbal
    Abstract: aggression more often than girls, while females use indirect forms of aggression predominantly (Hess & Hagen: 2005). Girls also have a tendency towards more intimate peer relations and more positive interactions with their teachers than their male counterparts (Bearman, Wheldall & Kemp: 2006). It would be prudent here to emphasize that not all aggression is bad. Reactive aggression is associated with negative emotionality, specifically anxiety and is related to frustration, while proactive aggression is associated with obtaining a desired goal (Card & Little: 2007). Anger: Children and adolescents with very poor social skills, in particular the angry, aggressive style have difficult imagining the thoughts and feelings of others. They often mistreat adults and peers without experiencing the guilt and remorse prompted by awareness of another's point of view (Chandler: 1973). Anger needs to be dealt with constructively to prevent it from manifesting as aggression (Saunders: 1998). Proposed methods for dealing with anger include waiting for the anger to subside before responding to the stimulus, attempts to identify the cause of the anger, trying to allow the anger to manifest in a calm manner and count to ten. Adolescence is a period in the child's life when dramatic changes are occurring; these changes result in altered perception of the world around them. The emotional peaks and troughs in an adolescent's life are well documented (Adams: 1995). Adolescents feel angry when their physical or social activities are prevented or in the case of an attack on their personalities, positions or status in society. An adolescent may display anger when he or she is criticised, embarrassed, underestimated, or ignored and perceive such situations as threats to his already extremely sensitive personality (Yazgan-Inanc, Bilgin & Atici: 2007). According to Eisenberg
    Abstract: and Delaney (1998), anger is a result of a person's personal appreciations and frustrations. Anger has three dimensions: physiological, social and cognitive, and behavioural and reaction. The physiological dimension of anger is related to a physiological change occurring in the body when an individual is exposed to a frustration or situation that increases anger (Kisac: 1997). The social and cognitive dimension explains the interpretation of perceived anger within an individual. The reasons for anger, fear and uneasiness are not related to the event itself, but rather to individual's perception and how they interpret the symbols in their minds: their cliché beliefs, comments and evaluations (Ozer: 2000). The behaviour and reaction dimension of anger is an expression of whether anger is expressed or not, and if it is how it is expressed (Kisac: 1997). Each of us experiences anger differently and expresses our anger in different manners, these can be defined as externalization, internalization or controlling (Spielberger: 1991). The adolescent experiences his anger as a social stimulus but others' personalities and behaviour may be triggers for anger in young people (Yazgan-Inanc et al: 1997). The problem with anger is, too many of us experience too much anger for too much time in our lives; this is when anger becomes a problem for us (Dahlen & Deffenbacher: 2001). Anger essentially comprises four key components; these components may occur separately but when they exist in conjunction the emotion of anger can become a real problem: The feeling of being angry - this feeling can range in intensity from mild annoyance to overpowering rage or fury. A bodily change - this physiological arousal is often caused by the release of adrenalin, which causes a range of reactions in our body (such as increased heart rate and blood pressure). A mental or cognitive
    Abstract: awareness - this sense that an event has occurred that threatens us is crucial in anger development. An effect on our behaviour - to feel real anger we need to express it in some manner, whether this is in an appropriate or inappropriate manner (Mann: 2012). It is common to confuse the idea of anger and aggression; anger remains an emotion while aggression is the action that can result from being very angry. The aggression is intended to cause physical or emotional harm, perhaps with verbal insults, threats, sarcasm or raised voices. When aggression becomes so extreme that we lose self-control, it is said that we are in a rage. The emotions connected to anger are not the problem; if we experience too much anger or express it in an inappropriate manner we can create problems for ourselves and for others. We experience anger for a number of reasons; anger in and of itself is not harmful and can be seen as a protective factor in cases. We feel anger when we need or want something outside of our reach. Researchers have suggested that anger is behaviour-regulating programmes that will help us acquire what we want or need in order to survive; our expression of anger can encourage the target of our anger to offer something that might reduce the likelihood of them suffering in any way from the angry outburst. This type of anger would probably not be tolerated with adolescents due to the inappropriate nature of ist use. Anger may also assist in preparing us for action. In a similar fashion to stress, anger sends signals throughout the body in preparation for the fight or flight response. Anger in this sense is essential to prepare us to take action against the perceived injustice against us. While our anger may prepare us to fight, this form of aggression is not socially acceptable. Anger also informs us when our rights have been violated; this heightened
    Abstract: awareness.

    Abstract: This book provides a range of interdisciplinary and international perspectives on difficulties in literacy development. The high-profile team of contributors provide ethical and policy discussions, as well as contextualising individual and collective strategies to addressing difficulties in literacy development. The chapters break new ground by encompassing a wide range of perspectives related to critical literacy, socio-cultural, cognitive, and psychological viewpoints, to help inform practice, policy and research into literacy difficulties. Issues addressed include: *the different ways literacy can be conceptualised through social-science based disciplinary perspectives *the issues at the centre of current public and professional debates surrounding literacy difficulties and how these have impacted upon pedagogical responses *the impact of these wider political and social issues on individual students. This reader forms the basis of the Open University's Difficulties in Literacy Development course, but will also be of interest to postgraduate students, teachers, researchers, education professionals and policymakers who are keen to address difficulties in literacy development.

    Abstract: Knowledge and Discourse presents an ecological approach to the study of discourse in social, academic and professional practices. It brings together distinguished scholars from diverse cultures - India, China, Australia, Canada among others - and disciplines - linguistics, anthropology, sociology, philosophy. The chapters collectively illustrate the ecological approach by exploring how language makes connections between subjective experiences as people construct meaning and action. This book offers the reader a holistic, interdisciplinary approach to the study of language as discourse, questioning traditional views of disciplinary knowledge and the role of discourse in the pursuit, construction and compartmentalisation of such knowledge. Through the variety of disciplines, experiences and approaches, the contributors show how the world and word are contingent on each other. The notions of connectivity, contingency and change are themes that run through the book, and in the interweaving of these themes readers will find persuasive illustrations of an ecological approach to applied linguistics.

    Abstract: This book is based upon detailed research on the behavior and skills of successful negotiators. From this research, the book extracts Five Golden Rules along with simple tools and techniques which, if applied, guarantee a successful negotiation outcome. The book itself is based upon a fictional buyer- salesperson relationship. The book starts with the two protagonists meeting over lunch on the day the Buyer is due to retire. They begin to discuss their business relationship over the years and the book uses different episodes/meetings during that time to bring out the above Golden Rules and other negotiation concepts. The book provides simple tools to help apply the Golden Rules and each chapter concludes with a summary of the key points and questions to be considered.

    Abstract: It has only been recognised tardily and with reluctance that during the Second World War hundreds of thousands of itinerants met the same horrendous fate as Jews and other victims of Nazism. Gypsies appear to appeal to the imagination simply as social outcasts and scapegoats or, in a flattering but no more illuminating light, as romantic outsiders. In this study, contemporary notions about Gypsies are traced back as far as possible to their roots, in an attempt to lay bare why stigmatisation of gypsies, or rather groups labelled as such, has continuned from the distant past even to today.

    Abstract: Video gaming is economically, educationally, culturally, socially and theoretically important, and has, in a relatively short period of time, firmly cemented its place within contemporary life. It is fair to say, however, that the majority of research to date has focused most specifically on either the video games themselves, or the direct engagement of gamers with a specific piece of game technology. In contrast, Video Gamers is the first book to explicitly and comprehensively address how digital games are engaged with and experienced in the everyday lives, social networks and consumer patterns of those who play them. In doing so, the book provides a key introduction to the study of gamers and the games they play, whilst also reflecting on the current debates and literatures surrounding gaming practices.

    Abstract: In the two decades before World War One, Great Britain witnessed the largest revival of anti-slavery protest since the legendary age of emancipation in the mid-nineteenth century. Rather than campaigning against the trans-Atlantic slave trade, these latter-day abolitionists focused on the so-called 'new slaveries' of European imperialism in Africa, condemning coercive systems of labor taxation and indentured servitude, as well as evidence of atrocities. A Civilized Savagery illuminates the multifaceted nature of British humanitarianism by juxtaposing campaigns against different forms of imperial labor exploitation in three separate areas: the Congo Free State, South Africa, and Portuguese West Africa. In doing so, Kevin Grant points out how this new type of humanitarianism influenced the transition from Empire to international government and the advent of universal human rights in subsequent decades.

    Abstract: In Legendary Rivals Jaclyn Neel argues for a new interpretation of the foundation myths of Rome. Instead of a negative portrayal of the city's early history, these tales offer a didactic paradigm of the correct way to engage in competition.

    Abstract: Misunderstanding is a pervasive phenomenon in social life, sometimes with serious consequences for people's life chances. Misunderstandings are especially hazardous in high-stakes events such as job interviews or in the legal system. In unequal power encounters, unsuccessful communication is regularly attributed to the less powerful participant, especially when those participants are members of an ethnic minority group. But even when communicative events are not prestructured by participants' differential positions in social hierarchies, misunderstandings occur at different levels of interactional and social engagement. Misunderstanding in Social Life examines such problematic talk in ordinary conversation and different institutional settings, including socializing events and story tellings, education and assessment activities, and interviews in TV news broadcasts, employment agencies, legal settings, and language testing. The analyzed interactions are located in a variety of sociocultural environments and conducted in a range of languages, including English, French, German, Hebrew, Japanese, such language varieties as Aboriginal Australian English and Maori New Zealand English, and nonnative varieties. The original studies included in this volume adopt a variety of theoretical perspectives, including discourse-pragmatic approaches, conversation analysis, interactional sociolinguistics, social constructionism, tropological and narrative analysis. They represent multiple views of misunderstanding as a multilayered discourse event.

    Abstract: "That this Handbook calls for two large volumes and more than four dozen essays illustrates the dramatic pace of developing media theory in recent years. Such a reference work would have been impossible a decade or two ago when serious media theoretical research was just getting off the ground and we had far more questions than potential answers. Fortner and Fackler and their impressive array of contributors provide an invaluable intellectual anthology of what we now know, topics which are still only partially understood, and aspects where much remains to be done." Chris Sterling, George Washington University "Like Rodgers and Hammerstein or Lerner and Lowe, Robert Fortner and Mark Fackler are becoming the gourmet indispensable team who provide excellent inspiration for our field. Like Christians and Wilkins, they have set the bar with a handbook on international media ethics. Now they are raising that bar with The Handbook of Media and Mass Communication Theory, which assembles a who's who of leading theorists and media studies thinkers worldwide. Far more than an introduction to media theory, this double volume is the most current and comprehensive overview and analysis of the field. … MUST reading." Dr. Tom Cooper, Emerson College "A rich resource for all media-related disciplines. Impressive for its vision, both retrospective and future-oriented; and comprehensive in its range of perspectives, from the established to the innovatory." Denis McQuail, University of Amsterdam.

    Keywords: Islamfeindlichkeit ; USA
    Abstract: In July 2010, Terry Jones, the pastor of a small fundamentalist church in Florida, announced plans to burn two hundred Qur'ans on the anniversary of the September 11 attacks. Though he ended up canceling the stunt in the face of widespread public backlash, his threat sparked violent protests across the Muslim world that left at least twenty people dead. In Terrified, Christopher Bail demonstrates how the beliefs of fanatics like Jones are inspired by a rapidly expanding network of anti-Muslim organizations that exert profound influence on American understanding of Islam. Bail traces how the anti-Muslim narrative of the political fringe has captivated large segments of the American media, government, and general public, validating the views of extremists who argue that the United States is at war with Islam and marginalizing mainstream Muslim-Americans who are uniquely positioned to discredit such claims. Drawing on cultural sociology, social network theory, and social psychology, he shows how anti-Muslim organizations gained visibility in the public sphere, commandeered a sense of legitimacy, and redefined the contours of contemporary debate, shifting it ever outward toward the fringe. Bail illustrates his pioneering theoretical argument through a big-data analysis of more than one hundred organizations struggling to shape public discourse about Islam, tracing their impact on hundreds of thousands of newspaper articles, television transcripts, legislative debates, and social media messages produced since the September 11 attacks. The book also features in-depth interviews with the leaders of these organizations, providing a rare look at how anti-Muslim organizations entered the American mainstream.

    Abstract: This book investigates the anti-Semitic foundations of Nazi curricula for elementary schools, with a focus on the subjects of biology, history, and literature. Gregory Paul Wegner argues that any study of Nazi society and its values must probe the education provided by the regime. Schools, according to Wegner, play a major role in advancing ideological justifications for mass murder, and in legitimizing a culture of ethnic and racial hatred. Using a variety of primary sources, Wegner provides a vivid account of the development of Nazi education.

    DDC: 304.23
    Abstract: This edited collection disrupts dominant narratives about space, states, and borders, bringing comparative ethnographic and geographic scholarship in conversation with one another to illuminate the varied ways in which space becomes socialized via political, economic, and cognitive appropriation. Societies must, first and foremost, do more than wrangle over ownership and land rights - they must dwell in space. Yet, historically the interactions between the state's territorial imperative with previous forms of landscape management have unfolded in a variety of ways, including top-down imposition, resistance, and negotiation between local and external actors. These interactions have resulted in hybrid forms of territoriality, and are often fraught with fundamentally different perceptions of landscape. This book foregrounds these experiences and draws attention to situations in which different social constructions of space and territory coincide, collide, or overlap. Each ethnographic case in this volume presents forms of territoriality that are contingent upon contested histories, politics, landscape, the presence or absence of local heterogeneity and the involvement of multiple external actors with differing motivations - ultimately all resulting in the potential for conflict or collaboration and divergent implications for conceptions of community, autochthony and identity.

    Abstract: In current global politics, which positions China as a competitor to American leadership, in-depth understandings of transnational mutual engagement are much needed for cultivating nonviolent relations. Exploring American and Chinese professors' experiences at the intersection of the individual, society, and history, and weaving the autobiographical and the global, this book furthers understanding of their cross-cultural personal awareness and educational work at universities in both countries. While focusing on life histories, it also draws on both American and Chinese intellectual traditions such as American nonviolence activism, Taoism, and Buddhism to formulate a vision of nonviolence in curriculum studies. Centering cross-cultural education and pedagogy about, for, and through nonviolence, this volume contributes to internationalizing curriculum studies and introduces curriculum theorizing at the level of higher education. Hongyu Wang brings together stories, dialogues, and juxtapositions of cross-cultural pathways and pedagogies in a powerful case for theorizing and performing nonviolence education as visionary work in the internationalization of curriculum studies.

    Abstract: As life expectancy increases in India, the number of people living with dementia will also rise. Yet little is known about how people in India cope with dementia, how relationships and identities change through illness and loss. In addressing this question, this book offers a rich ethnographic account of how middle-class families in urban India care for their relatives with dementia. From the husband who wakes up at 3 am to feed his wife ice-cream to the daughters who gave up employment for seven years to care for their mother with dementia, this book illuminates the local idioms on dementia and aging, the personal experience of care-giving, the functioning of stigma in daily life, and the social and cultural barriers in accessing support.

    Abstract: The social and cultural changes of the last century have transformed death from an everyday fact to something hidden from view. Shifting between the practical and the theoretical, the professional and the intimate, the real and the fictitious, this collection of essays explores the continued power of death over our lives. It examines the idea and experience of death from an interdisciplinary perspective, including studies of changing burial customs throughout Europe; an account of a"dying party" in the Netherlands; examinations of the fascination with violent death in crime fiction and the phenomenon of serial killer art; analyses of death and bereavement in poetry, fiction, and autobiography; and a look at audience reactions to depictions of death on screen. By studying and considering how death is thought about in the contemporary era, we might restore the natural place it has in our lives.

    Abstract: Most of the Muslim societies of the world have entered a demographic transition from high to low fertility, and this process is accompanied by an increase in youth vis-a-vis other age groups. Political scientists and historians have debated whether such a "youth bulge" increases the potential for conflict or whether it represents a chance to accumulate wealth and push forward social and technological developments. This book introduces the discussion about youth bulge into social anthropology using Tajikistan, a post-Soviet country that experienced civil war in the 1990s, which is in the middle of such a demographic transition. Sophie Roche develops a social anthropological approach to analyze demographic and political dynamics, and suggests a new way of thinking about social change in youth bulge societies.

    Abstract: Mythologies and narratives of victimization pervade contemporary Croatia, set against the backdrop of militarized notions of masculinity and the political mobilization of religion and nationhood. Based on extensive ethnographic fieldwork in rural Dalmatia in the Croatian-Bosnian border region, this book provides a unique account of the politics of ambiguous Europeanness from the perspective of those living at Europe's margins. Examining phenomena such as Marian apparitions, a historic knights tournament, the symbolic re-signification of a massacre site, and the desolate social situation of Croatian war veterans, Narrating Victimhood traces the complex mechanisms of political radicalization in a post-war scenario. This book provides a new perspective for understanding the ongoing processes of transformation in Southeastern Europe and the Balkans.

    Abstract: The land, labor, credit, and trading institutions of Marmara village, in Hausaland, northern Nigeria, are detailed in this study through fieldwork conducted in two national economic cycles - the petroleum-boom prosperity (in 1977-1979), and the macro-economic decline (in 1985, 1996 and 1998). The book unveils a new paradigm of economic change in the West African savannah, demonstrating how rural accumulation in a polygynous society actually limits the extent of inequality while at the same time promoting technical change.  A uniquely African non-capitalist trajectory of accumulation subordinates the acquisition of capital to the expansion of polygynous families, clientage networks, and circles of trading friends.  The whole trajectory is driven by an indigenous ethics of personal responsibility. This model disputes the validity of both Marxian theories of capitalist transformation in Africa and the New Institutional Economics.

    Abstract: Sex, smoking, and social stratification are three very different social phenomena. And yet, argues sociologist Randall Collins, they and much else in our social lives are driven by a common force: interaction rituals. Interaction Ritual Chains is a major work of sociological theory that attempts to develop a "radical microsociology." It proposes that successful rituals create symbols of group membership and pump up individuals with emotional energy, while failed rituals drain emotional energy. Each person flows from situation to situation, drawn to those interactions where their cultural capital gives them the best emotional energy payoff. Thinking, too, can be explained by the internalization of conversations within the flow of situations; individual selves are thoroughly and continually social, constructed from the outside in. The first half of Interaction Ritual Chains is based on the classic analyses of Durkheim, Mead, and Goffman and draws on micro-sociological research on conversation, bodily rhythms, emotions, and intellectual creativity. The second half discusses how such activities as sex, smoking, and social stratification are shaped by interaction ritual chains. For example, the book addresses the emotional and symbolic nature of sexual exchanges of all sorts--from hand-holding to masturbation to sexual relationships with prostitutes--while describing the interaction rituals they involve. This book will appeal not only to psychologists, sociologists, and anthropologists, but to those in fields as diverse as human sexuality, religious studies, and literary theory.

    Abstract: The term cosmopolitan is increasingly used within different social, cultural and political settings, including academia, popular media and national politics. However those who invoke the cosmopolitan project rarely ask whose experience, understanding, or vision of cosmopolitanism is being described and for whose purposes? In response, this volume assembles contributors from different disciplines and theoretical backgrounds to examine cosmopolitanism's possibilities, aspirations and applications-as well as its tensions, contradictions, and discontents-so as to offer a critical commentary on the vital but often neglected question: whose cosmopolitanism? The book investigates when, where, and how cosmopolitanism emerges as a contemporary social process, global aspiration or emancipatory political project and asks whether it can serve as a political or methodological framework for action in a world of conflict and difference.

    Abstract: The year 2013 marks the centennial of the first "Free-German Youth Day" that took place on the Meissner massif. Anti-Semitic outbursts erupted at the margins of this historical gathering. In its wake, a right-wing populist faction of the youth movement arose for the first time. This collected volume examines the interface between the youth movement, nationalism, and anti-Semitism.

Space and territorialization, global integration and statehood, law and international organizations - these dimensions of the global commons enrich our perspectives on the Cold War, decolonization, and North-South conflicts.

    Abstract: The main theme of this publication is traditional clothing in Moravia, particularly in the region of Wallachia. It assesses written and pictorial sources for the study of folk costumes in Moravia since late 18th century. The book outlines the development of traditional clothing and presents a typology of its parts as well as a differentiation of types of folk costumes determined by the social status of their wearers and by their purpose for different occasions such as work, family, and annual celebrations and festivals.

The economics of the Austrian School provide a far stronger theoretical framework which can introduce cultural analysis into questions of economic development and other market processes.

    Abstract: Language not only expresses identities but also constructs them. Starting from that point, Language and Identity examines the interrelationships between language and identities. It finds that they are so closely interwoven, that words themselves are inscribed with ideological meanings. Words and language constitute meanings within discourses and discourses vary in power. The powerful ones reproduce more powerful meanings, colonize other discourses and marginalize or silence the least powerful languages and cultures. Language and culture death occur in extreme cases of marginalization. This book also demonstrates the socio-economic opportunities offered by language choice and the cultural allegiances of language, where groups have been able to create new lives for themselves by embracing new languages in new countries. Language can be a 'double-edged sword' of opportunity and marginalization. Language and Identity argues that bilingualism and in some cases multilingualism can both promote socio-economic opportunity and combat culture death and marginalization. With sound theoretical perspectives drawing upon the work of Bakhtin, Vygotsky, Gumperz, Foucault and others, this book provides readers with a rationale to redress social injustice in the world by supporting minority linguistic and cultural identities and an acknowledgement that access to language can provide opportunity.

    Abstract: Carlos Waisman has pinpointed the specific beliefs that led the Peronists unwittingly to transform their country from a relatively prosperous land of recent settlement, like Australia and Canada, to an impoverished and underdeveloped society resembling the rest of Latin America. Originally published in 1987. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These paperback editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.

    Abstract: The book traces growing state intervention in the rural areas of Tunisia and Libya in the middle 1800s and the diverging development of the two countries during the period of European rule. State formation accelerated in Tunisia under the French with the result that, with independence, interest-based policy brokerage became the principal form of political organization. For Libya, where the Italians dismantled the pre-colonial administration, independence brought with it the revival of kinship as the basis for politics. Originally published in 1986. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These paperback editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback editions.
