    Abstract: Robotische Systeme bahnen sich beständig Ihren Weg in die verschiedenen Bereiche menschlichen Lebens. Der Einsatz dieser Maschinen ist längst nicht mehr auf den industriellen Bereich beschränkt. Vielfältige Anwendungsmöglichkeiten bieten auch der militärische, medizinische und häusliche Bereich. Die Allgegenwärtigkeit dieser Technologie prägt in zunehmendem Maße unseren Alltag. Das Werk „Robotik im Kontext von Recht und Moral" beschäftigt sich mit dem technischen Fortschritt auf dem Gebiet der Robotik und seinen Auswirkungen auf die Gesellschaft. Dabei wird insbesondere der Frage nachgegangen, ob die bislang geltenden rechtlichen und moralischen Konzepte auf die Interaktion zwischen Mensch und Maschine anwendbar sind oder vielmehr neue Ansätze gefunden werden müssen. Neben einer aktuellen Bestandsaufnahme wird der Fokus auch auf zukünftig zu erwartende Entwicklungen gelegt. Mit Beiträgen von: Göde Both, Dr. med. Kirsten Brukamp, Dr. iur.

    Abstract: Social network analysis has transformed the study of organizations over the past 30 years. Rather than focus on individuals or teams, network scholars view the organization as a nexus of relationships. As its popularity increases, the scholarship is evolving in many directions including new theory on network dynamics, multilevel thinking, multiplex networks, digital networks, instrumental and affective ties, and cross-cultural considerations, in addition to advances in methods and measures, and new organizational applications. This compendium of essays points the way to contemporary issues in organizational social networks.Research in the Sociology of Organizations is an established international, peer-reviewed series that examines cutting edge theoretical, methodological and research issues in organizational studies. The series is especially concerned with specifying the unique contributions of sociological theories and research techniques to the analysis of organizations. In addition to publishing high quality original research, each volume aims to foster debate about the value of new theories and research to the growing international community of organizational studies scholars

    Abstract: "Differences in Common engages in the ongoing debate on "community" focusing on its philosophical and political aspects through a gendered perspective. It explores the subversive and enriching potential of the concept of community, as seen from the perspective of heterogeneity and distance, and not from homogeneity and fused adhesions. This theoretical reflection is, in most of the essays included here, based on the analysis of literary and filmic texts, which, due to their irreducible singularity, teach us to think without being tied, or needing to resort, to commonplaces."--Back cover

    Abstract: This path-breaking book explains the processes through which the heterogeneous population of Roma in Europe constitutes itself into a transnational collective identity through the practices and discourses of everyday life, as well as through those of identity politics. It illustrates how the collective identity formation of the Roma in Europe is constituted simultaneously in the local, national, and European contexts, drawing attention to the mismatches and gaps between these levels, as well as the creative opportunities for achieving this political aim.Bunescu demonstrates that the difference

    Abstract: "The globalization of food consumption has often been equated with the loss of culinary traditions and the homogenization of cuisines. By contrast, the anthropologists, historians and sociologists contributing to this collection reveal both rapid changes and also profound and sometimes surprising continuities in local food consumption practices in the nineteenth, twentieth and twenty-first centuries, and use these to shed light on shifting social boundaries and cultural identities. The volume combines ethnographic, historical and comparative analyses, situating local practices of eating, cooking and sharing food within transnational processes and contexts. In so doing, the volume celebrates and furthers approaches developed in Jack Goody's seminal 1982 book, Cooking, Cuisine and Class: A Study in Comparative Sociology. With studies of China, India, West Africa, South America and Europe, the book provides a truly global perspective on the social dynamics of food consumption in the modern world"--

    Abstract: Anthropology has long had a vexed relationship with literature, and nowhere has this been more acutely felt than in France, where most ethnographers, upon returning from the field, write not one book, but two: a scientific monograph and a literary account. In Far Afield-brought to English-language readers here for the first time-Vincent Debaene puzzles out this phenomenon, tracing the contours of anthropology and literature's mutual fascination and the ground upon which they meet in the works of thinkers from Marcel Mauss and Georges Bataille to Claude Lévi-Strauss and Roland Barthes.

    Abstract: Der Anerkennungsbegriff ist heute zum Schlusselbegriff der Ethik geworden und hat als ein solcher zunehmend auch im sozial- und erziehungswissenschaftlichen Diskurs an Bedeutung gewonnen. Dabei gilt Anerkennung vielfach als normative Richtschnur, mit der sich (padagogische) Beziehungen und Praxen bewerten lassen. Vor diesem Hintergrund unternimmt die Arbeit eine Spurensuche zur Anerkennungskategorie. Mittels Rekonstruktion verschiedener Anerkennungskonzepte werden Bedeutungsgehalte und Dimensionen der ?Anerkennung' herausgearbeitet und auf sozial- und erziehungswissenschaftliche Problemstellungen bezogen. Die Studien loten die Reichweite jeweiliger Anerkennungsverstandnisse aus und entfalten im Ruckgriff auf macht- und alteritatstheoretische Positionen ein analytisch justiertes Verstandnis von Anerkennung, mit dem zugleich neue Perspektiven auf den ethischen wie den padagogischen Gehalt der Anerkennungskategorie eroffnet werden.

    Abstract: The 12 women who feature in this book come from diverse backgrounds. The thread that binds their stories is their resolve to change the circumstances of their lives, overcoming tremendous odds, and giving wings to their dreams. They are survivors and pathfinders, doers and dreamers, leaving in their wake surging inspiration and hope. Their testimonies reveal what it is to live in this often forgotten corner of India. They have overcome personal tragedy, broken the falters of tradition, discrimination, and coped bravely with the harrowing experience of violence and uncertainty

    Abstract: In 1989, the well-known organisational culture scholar, Stephen Ott, lamented what he saw as the failure of the organisational culture perspective to have the kind of lasting influence - whether empirical, or in terms of its contribution to practice - that had been hoped for. In attempting to explain this state of affairs, Ott observed that: "Some of the most important unanswered questions are methodological, and without methodological advancement, the perspective will not achieve maturity." The situation today, more than two decades after Ott voiced these concerns, is that academics, researchers, and practitioners alike continue to struggle with the question of how best to decipher and measure an organisation's culture. Organisational Culture: Concept, Context and Measurement (in two volumes) aims to encourage an agenda for organisational culture research that gives a renewed emphasis to methodological issues. In pursuit of this aim, consideration is given to both conceptual questions and questions of measurement. In Volume I of the book, the main focus is on the concept of organisational culture. Based on an analysis and critique of existing treatments, as well as a comparison of organisational culture with a number of closely related concepts, consideration is given to how the concept might usefully be elaborated and further refined. In Volume II of the book, the focus is on methodological issues. Drawing on the findings of a series of empirical studies conducted over a number of years, consideration is given to what would be required to develop a measure for organisational culture that is practically useful and also capable of accessing culture at its deepest, and arguably most influential yet most elusive, level. In particular, an approach is advocated that seeks to contextualise organisational culture, in terms of various time and experience domains, and that also promotes the use of attributions analysis as a means whereby to further understand culture at this level. A valuable resource for scholars and practitioners alike, the book provides readers who are interested in understanding the role and influence of culture in organisations with a comprehensive analysis of the development and application of the organisational culture concept. For readers who are interested in conducting research into the measurement and practical application of organisational culture, the book provides a methodological approach that can be used to guide their research

    Abstract: Im 19. Jahrhundert wurden außergewöhnliche Körper in den Wissenschaften als »Monstrositäten« bezeichnet und in der Populärkultur als »Freaks« zur Sprache gebracht. In einer kulturphilosophischen Perspektive nimmt dieser Band die Prozesse der Wissensbildung am monströsen Körper im Zusammenhang mit kulturellen Vorstellungen des Normalen in den Blick. Birgit Stammberger zeigt, dass Monstrositäten zwar stets eine Störung wissenschaftlicher und kultureller Ordnungen darstellen. Dennoch ist diese Widerständigkeit kein geschichtsloser Bereich, sondern Funktion und Resultat normativer Bestimmungen des

    Abstract: How does one read across cultural boundaries? The multitude of creative texts, performance practices, and artworks produced by Indigenous writers and artists in contemporary Australia calls upon Anglo-European academic readers, viewers, and critics to respond to this critical question. Contributors address a plethora of creative works by Indigenous writers, poets, playwrights, filmmakers, and painters, including Richard Frankland, Lionel Fogarty, Lin Onus, Kim Scott, Sam Watson, and Alexis Wright, as well as Durrudiya song cycles and works by Western Desert artists.

    Abstract: The incomparable Rebecca Solnit, author of more than a dozen acclaimed, prizewinning books of nonfiction, brings the same dazzling writing to the essays in Encyclopedia of Trouble and Spaciousness. As the title suggests, the territory of Solnit's concerns is vast, and in her signature alchemical style she combines commentary on history, justice, war and peace, and explorations of place, art, and community, all while writing with the lyricism of a poet to achieve incandescence and wisdom.Gathered here are celebrated iconic essays along with little-known pieces that create a powerful survey of t

    Abstract: Explore the tensions and tenderness between fathers and sons in this masterpiece of narrative psychology!"We live in a story-shaped world," as the editors say, and Between Fathers and Sons: Critical Incident Narratives in the Development of Men's Lives shows how the stories we construct come to shape our perceptions of the world and of ourselves. The incidents recounted here are more than just moving, funny, or painful stories of fathers and sons. Each is a myth that helped form the authors'social and moral identity. This blend of feeling and intellect, story and analysis m

    Abstract: In this book Haggai Mazuz offers an account of the halakhic character of the Jewish community of Medina in the seventh century CE. Making use of a unique methodology of comparison between Islamic and Jewish sources, Mazuz convincingly argues that the Jews of Medina were Talmudic-Rabbinic Jews in almost every respect. Their sages believed in using homiletic interpretation of the Scriptures, as did the sages of the Talmud. On many halakhic issues, their observations were identical to those of the Talmudic sages. In addition, they held Rabbinic beliefs, sayings and motifs derived from the Midrashic literature. --from back cover

    Abstract: In Identity, Nationalism, and Cultural Heritage under Siege , Fatme Myuhtar-May makes a case for the recognition of Pomak heritage by presenting five stories from the past and present of the Rhodope Muslims in Bulgaria as examples of a distinct Pomak culture. The stories range from the Christianisation during the Balkan Wars of 1912-1913 and the forced communist renaming of the Pomaks in the 1970s, to their fascinating wedding rituals and historic figures. Each of the five narratives contains its own storyline and serves as a prominent example of Pomak heritage, from the author's perspective. The stories take place in the context of fervent nationalism and the ongoing censorship of Pomakness based on the claim that it is an "ethnic Bulgarian," not "Pomak" heritage

    Abstract: Experimental Film and Anthropology' urges a new dialogue between two seemingly separate fields. The book explores the practical and theoretical challenges arising from experimental film for anthropology, and vice versa, through a number of contact zones: trance, emotions and the senses, materiality and time, non-narrative content and montage. Experimental film and cinema are understood in this book as broad, inclusive categories covering many technical formats and historical traditions, to investigate the potential for new common practices. An international range of renowned anthropologists, film scholars and experimental film-makers engage in vibrant discussion and offer important new insights for all students and scholars involved in producing their own films

    Abstract: Die erste umfassende Studie zum ersten enzyklopädisch ausgerichteten natur- und weltkundlichen Sachbuch im deutschsprachigen Raum. Friedrich J. Bertuchs »Bilderbuch für Kinder« erschien zwischen 1790 und 1830 in 237 Einzelheften mit 1.186 Kupfertafeln. Wie auch andere wissenschaftliche Werke der Zeit brachte es die neuesten Entdeckungen in die bürgerliche Lebenswelt. Damit war es eines der ersten und umfangreichsten enzyklopädisch ausgerichteten Sachbücher in Deutschland. Hatte Basedows philanthropisches »Elementarwerk« (1770) allgemein bekannte Dinge und Begebenheiten nahegebracht, setzte Bertuch weitgehend Exotisches und Unbekanntes ins Bild. Silvy Chakkalakal verbindet eine kulturanalytische Auseinandersetzung mit den erkenntnistheoretischen Debatten über sinnliche Wahrnehmung, anschauende Erkenntnis und kindliche Sehweisen. Anhand der Bilder untersucht sie den zeitgenössischen Entwicklungsgedanken der Anthropologie, Pädagogik, Naturgeschichte, Geologie und der frühen Ethnographie. Mit der Erkenntnis, dass deren Wissenschaftsgeschichte ohne Visualisierungen nicht zu verstehen ist, leistet die Untersuchung einen wichtigen Beitrag zur Bild- und Wahrnehmungsgeschichte um 1800. Silvy Chakkalakal ist wissenschaftliche Assistentin am Seminar für Kulturwissenschaft und Europäische Ethnologie an der Universität Basel. Sie hat in Tübingen, London und Berlin Europäische Ethnologie und Allgemeine Vergleichende Literaturwissenschaft studiert und am Institut für Europäische Ethnologie der Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin promoviert. 2010 war sie Visiting Research Collaborator am History of Science-Program und am Department of History der Princeton University.

    Abstract: This collection explores how the Capability Approach (CA) can be 'brought out of the realm of ideas' to the 'realm of policy and practice'. Despite its undeniable contributions, one of the critiques against the CA is the difficulty of its application. How can human capabilities be articulated and promoted in practice? Is the CA applicable in the Global South and the Global North? What are some of the challenges encountered in its application and how can they be addressed? The authors seek to answer these research questions, making an important analytical and empirical contribution to the CA and its application. Through a series of case studies from the Global North (France, Germany and the UK) and the Global South (India, Egypt, Brazil, Ghana and Mongolia), they provide useful insights not only into the different ways and contexts in which the CA can be applied, but also into the various challenges that are encountered during these applications and the means to overcome these challenges. The volume is a valuable resource for researchers, graduate students, practitioners and academics alike. It bridges the gap between development theory and practice by explaining the importance of CA applications and the contributions these can make to the refinement of the approach itself

    Abstract: This volume explores the renewal of Asian migration to Europe that began in the late 18th century while still in the frame of the colonial regime. It counters the construction of an »unchanging East« versus a »dynamic West« developed in the 19th century; of static, rooted populations versus adventurous young men seeking opportunities afar (the producers of this cliché overlooked migrating women). These essays provide analyses of some of the migrants from the different societies of Asia in Europe. They focus on migrants from East and South Asia and explore their different experiences in Europe

    Abstract: Why do things go wrong? Why, despite all the planning and care in the world, do things go from bad to worse? This book argues that it is because we are like the ants. Just as ants create an anthill without being aware of it, unintended side effects of human activity create all manner of social trends and crises. The book traces the way these trends emerge and the role they play in some of the major issues of our time. One of the greatest challenges today is the complexity of our social and economic systems. Every action has side effects that people often ignore or fail to see. The book examines the ways in which limitations in our thinking and behaviour lead to unintended side effects. It looks at the role played by complex networks of interactions. Finally, it looks at the way side effects of new technologies, especially computers and communication, have created an Information Revolution, the full repercussions of which are yet to be seen. In our race to create new technologies and sustain indefinite economic growth, we are at best dimly aware of the ways in which we are transforming society and threatening our environment.

    Abstract: Die Einteilung von Menschen in Rassen ist eine der umstrittensten Praktiken biologischer Forschung. Doch statt ihres Endes zeichnet sich in den letzten Jahrzehnten eine Renaissance rassifizierter Konzepte ab. Tino Plümeckes detaillierte Studie geht erstmals der Frage nach, wieso Rasse immer wieder Teil modernster Forschungen werden konnte. Analysiert werden die Rassifizierungen in verschiedenen biologischen Disziplinen und die Entwicklungslinien im Kontext genetischer Ansätze. Das Buch führt Kompetenzen aus den Bio- sowie Geistes- und Sozialwissenschaften zusammen und liefert einen Beitrag zur Weiterentwicklung kritischer und intervenierender Wissenschaftsforschung. Rezension «Tino Plümecke gibt [...] einen guten Überblick über die rassistischen Forschungen der Biologie und Anwendungen der Medizin - und zeigt auf, wie 'Rasse'-Konzepte noch heute zentrale Bestandteile dieser Disziplinen sind.« Heinz-Jürgen Voß, Gen-ethischer Informationsdienst, 220 (2013) Besprochen in: Deutsches Ärzteblatt, 110/49 (2013) www.socialnet.de, 12.02.2014, Aurelia Weikert IDA NRW, 4 (2014) www.socialnet.de, 12.02.2015, Aurelia Weikert Reihe VerKörperungen/MatteRealities - Perspektiven empirischer Wissenschaftsforschung - Band 19.

    Abstract: The period in Europe known as the Belle Epoque was a time of vibrant and unsettling modernization in social and political organization, in artistic and literary life, and in the conduct and discoveries of the sciences. These trends, and the emphasis on internationalization that characterized them, necessitated the development of new structures and processes for discovering, disseminating, manipulating and managing access to information. This book analyses the dynamics of the emerging networks of individuals, organizations, technologies and publications by which means information was exchanged across and through all kinds of borders and boundaries in this period. It extends the frame within which historical discourse about information can take place by bringing together scholars not only from different disciplines but also from different national and linguistic backgrounds. As a result the volume offers new and surprising ways of looking at the historical period of the Belle Epoque. It will be of interest to scholars and students of information history and the emergence of the information society as well as to social and cultural historians concerned with the late 19th and early 20th century

In a disturbing indictment of the government's 4000 reparations offer, Kidd unpicks official dealings on the huge trust funds compiled from private income and community endeavours, showing how governments used these finances to their advantage, while families and communities struggled in poverty

    Abstract: To remain unconsumed by consumer society-this was the goal, pursued through a world of subtle and practical means, that beckoned throughout the first volume of The Practice of Everyday Life. The second volume of the work delves even deeper than did the first into the subtle tactics of resistance and private practices that make living a subversive art. Michel de Certeau, Luce Giard, and Pierre Mayol develop a social history of "making do" based on microhistories that move from the private sphere (of dwelling, cooking, and homemaking) to the public (the experience of living in a neighborhood)

    Keywords: Child development.. ; Child care ; Electronic books ; Electronic books ; Electronic books ; Partnerschaftskonflikt ; Ehescheidung ; Kind ; Entwicklung ; Kindeswohl
    Abstract: Internationale Befunde haben konsistent dargelegt, dass destruktive Paarkonflikte und Scheidungen zu den wichtigsten Risikofaktoren für eine ungünstige kindliche Entwicklung gehören. Für Kinder sind Störungen in der Partnerschaft der Eltern in hohem Maße bedrohlich und gehen im Falle einer Trennung der Eltern mit dem schmerzvollen Bruch des bisherigen Lebensentwurfs einher. Dies bedeutet in aller Regel ein hoch destabilisierendes Ereignis, welches von Kindern vielgestaltige Anpassungsleistungen abverlangt. Ermutigenderweise hat die gegenwärtige Paar- und Familienforschung Bedingungen identifiziert, wie Paarkonflikte und Scheidungen möglichst konstruktiv verlaufen - um der Partnerschaft und des Kindeswohls willen.

    Abstract: Through compelling analysis of popular culture, high culture and elite designs in the years following the end of the Second World War, this book explores how Britain and its people have come to terms with the loss of prestige stemming from the decline of the British Empire. The result is a volume that offers new ideas on what it is to be 'British'.

    Beratung: Reflexivität als Profession (2014)

    Keywords: Counseling ; Research ; Methodology ; Electronic books ; Electronic books ; Electronic books ; Beratung ; Reflexivität ; Professionalisierung
    Abstract: Beratung in verschiedenen Formen und Facetten ist aus der Gesellschaft nicht mehr wegzudenken. Dennoch fehlen dem Format Beratung viele Eigenschaften, die eine Profession kennzeichnen. Es ist das Anliegen des Autors, Beratung als Profession praktizierter Reflexivität zu etablieren. Dafür schlägt Hans-Jürgen Seel den Bogen von wichtigen humanwissenschaftlichen Diskursen bis zu konkreten Vorschlägen für eine Vereinigung des beraterischen mit einem wissenschaftlichen Setting. Er führt verfahrensübergreifende, einheitliche Begrifflichkeiten ein, die eine wissenschaftlich gesicherte Reflexion der beteiligten Akteure im Feld der Beratung erlauben. Diese bilden die Grundlage, um Beratung als Profession durchzusetzen und zu reflektieren. So wird ein Fundus gemeinsamen wissenschaftlich geprüften Wissens möglich, auf den auch gesellschaftliche Diskurse und die politische Entscheidungsfindung zugreifen können. Da professionelle reflexive Beratung prinzipiell sämtliche Bereiche menschlichen Erlebens und Handelns thematisiert, reichen die Konzeptualisierungen über den Bereich der Profession hinaus. Dr. Hans-Jürgen Seel, Diplom-Psychologe, war Professor an der TH Nürnberg und ist Vorstandsmitglied der DGfB.

    Abstract: This issue of Political power and social theory explores the changes in science associated with the rise of neoliberalism since the 1970s. The neoliberalization of science has complicated interactions among states, markets, and civil society, often in ways that challenge major assumptions underlying decades of research. The articles collected here break with older Mertonian sociologies of science and constructivist micro-sociologies of scientific knowledge to examine the meso-level problem of the changing institutional contexts of the scientific field as originally identified by Pierre Bourdieu. Papers presented in Part I extend Bourdieús relational approach to the broader set of interactions among scientific, regulatory, industry, and social movement fields. Part II extends Bourdieu's concern with order and the scientific habitus to the changing patterns of scientific practices under neoliberalism. By reconceptualizing the central problem for the social studies of science as the political sociological problem of field and inter-field dynamics, the collected papers chart an important theoretical agenda for future research in the study of science-society relations

    Abstract: Gesellschaftliche Wirklichkeit ist nicht nur, wie der soziologische Mainstream suggeriert, das Ergebnis rational und normorientiert handelnder Individuen. Vielmehr ist sie ebenso sehr das Produkt des Zusammenwirkens verkörperter Subjekte. Leib und Körper sind fundamentale Bedingungen für die Konstitution und Konstruktion, Repräsentation und Reproduktion von Sozialität. Robert Gugutzer entwickelt hierzu auf der Grundlage der Neuen Phänomenologie Eckpunkte einer neophänomenologischen Soziologie und stellt »Verkörperung« als soziologischen Grundbegriff vor. Anhand von sechs Fallstudien zu Sport, Tanz, Film, Religion, Bildung und Identität wird exemplarisch das bisher ungenutzte Erkenntnispotenzial einer Leib-Körper-basierten Soziologie verdeutlicht. Rezension Besprochen in: Sozialwissenschaften und Berufspraxis, 1 (2012), Ulla Ralfs.

    Abstract: Could the concepts of »metropolitanism« and »thick space« aid our understanding of historical and contemporary urban change? Essays by scholars from both sides of the Atlantic provide interdisciplinary approaches to the complex dynamics of large-scale urbanization. The book opens with conceptual questions regarding the development of metropoles and metropolitan studies. The following sections provide analyses of the social, environmental, and cultural dimensions of metropolitan spaces from both a theoretical and an empirical perspective, such as the role of planning and urban parks, the impact

    Abstract: Against My Better Judgment: An Intimate Memoir of an Eminent Gay Psychologist is an extraordinary and moving account of the life of a gay man in his late 60s after he loses his companion of 40 years to cancer. A leading professor of psychology at Harvard University, Roger Brown bravely comes forth with his compelling story of grief, loneliness, and a relentless search for intimacy, healing, and self-acceptance. Readers gain insight into a stage of life experienced by gay men of which little is written or spoken due to the ageism that characterizes homosexual culture. Against My Better Judgment

Disputes are settled through negotiation or through existing dispute resolution means: before domestic or international courts.

    Abstract: Human Security is a development buzzword of the 1990s. To attain security people need to be safe from natural disasters, such as famine, and 'man-made' problems, such as unemployment. Women are a particularly insecure section of society with the impact of deprivation disproportionately shouldered by women throughout the developing world. Searching for Security examines how economic, political and environmental factors have contributed to increased gender insecurity in the last decade. Analyzing the impacts of insecurity-inducing global changes on the lives of women throughout the developing wo

    Abstract: When social reformers blame the current ills of Western culture on the loss of community, they often evoke an ideal past in which societies were characterized by shared values, respect for tradition, commitment to the common good, and similar attributes. Communitarians assert that community was prominent in the past, and argue that reclaiming the role community formerly played is necessary to counter the negative effects of individualism and liberal thinking. Considering the relevance of community for our moral and political life today, Derek Phillips offers the first thorough critique of t

    Abstract: This book tells the compelling story of postemancipation Colombia, from the liberation of the slaves in the 1850s through the country's first general labor strikes in the 1910s. As Jason McGraw demonstrates, ending slavery fostered a new sense of citizenship, one shaped both by a model of universal rights and by the particular freedom struggles of African-descended people. Colombia's Caribbean coast was at the center of these transformations, in which women and men of color, the region's majority population, increasingly asserted the freedom to control their working conditions, fight in civil wars, and express their religious beliefs. The history of Afro-Colombians as principal social actors after emancipation, McGraw argues, opens up a new view on the practice and meaning of citizenship. Crucial to this conception of citizenship was the right of recognition. Indeed, attempts to deny the role of people of color in the republic occurred at key turning points exactly because they demanded public recognition as citizens. In connecting Afro-Colombians to national development, The Work of Recognition also places the story within the broader contexts of Latin American popular politics, culture, and the African diaspora

    Abstract: Fragen des Designs erfahren aktuell großes Interesse in einer Vielzahl kulturwissenschaftlicher Disziplinen. Im deutschsprachigen Raum wurden bisher jedoch kaum theoretische und methodische Ansätze zur Analyse der sozialen und kulturellen Funktionen von Design entwickelt. Das Buch schließt diese Lücke und versammelt erstmalig verschiedene kultursoziologische und -theoretische Zugänge, die Design als wichtigen Teil der ästhetischen Signatur von Gesellschaft sichtbar machen. Fallstudien zu sozialen und kulturellen Gebrauchskontexten, Praktiken des Entwurfs, Fetischisierungsprozessen und ethisch-

    Abstract: The history of people with disabilities has been dominated by their isolation and exclusion. The long fight towards inclusion - and inclusive education in particular - started not many years ago. Most were powerless to control their own destiny. Their participation in society has been the object of others actions. In many countries their disability policies have a substantial element of protection and charity but not the right to equalisation of opportunities. This book highlights the process of change that is underway internationally. The equalisation of opportunities requires new processes through which the various systems of society such as health services and education are delivered. It means the right for people with disabilities to remain in their communities and to receive the schooling and social supports they need within the ordinary structures available in local communities. Strong advocacy is needed for this to happen. In particular parents need to be empowered, communities mobilised and professionals trained in new ways of working: hence this book. Drawing on experiences in Africa, the book describes the issues to be considered when it comes to implementing inclusive strategies: the processes to be followed and the roles of different sectors, such as people with disabilities, parents, policy makers, educationalists, health and community development professionals and crucially, society at large

    Abstract: "In the immediate aftermath of the Civil War, the North assumed significant power to redefine the South, imagining a region rebuilt and modeled on northern society. The white South actively resisted these efforts, battling the legal strictures of Reconstruction on the ground. Meanwhile, white southern storytellers worked to recast the South's image, romanticizing the Lost Cause and heralding the birth of a New South. Prince argues that this cultural production was as important as political competition and economic striving in turning the South and the nation away from the egalitarian promises of Reconstruction and toward Jim Crow"--Provided by publisher

    Abstract: This book provides a collection of new insights on the increasingly popular topic of Followership. Leadership has been written about and studied for centuries, more often than not addressing how those in leadership roles influence their followers. This represents a very leader-centric view of the leadership phenomenon, where followers are considered as passive recipients of leaders' influence. However, peoples' attempts to exercise leadership cannot be successful if there are no other people who recognize and support their leadership

    Abstract: 1. Coming Together -- 2. Injuries Big Gay Men Suffer -- 3. Performing the Fat Body -- 4. Big Gay Men's Struggle for Class Distinction -- 5. Shame Reconfigured.
    Abstract: To be fat in a thin-obsessed gay culture can be difficult. Despite affectionate in-group monikers for big gay men-chubs, bears, cubs-the anti-fat stigma that persists in American culture at large still haunts these individuals who often exist at the margins of gay communities. In Fat Gay Men, Jason Whitesel delves into the world of Girth & Mirth, a nationally known social club dedicated to big gay men, illuminating the ways in which these men form identities and community in the face of adversity. In existence for over forty years, the club has long been a refuge and 'safe space' for such men. Both a partial insider as a gay man and an outsider to Girth & Mirth, Whitesel offers an insider's critique of the gay movement, questioning whether the social consequences of the failure to be height-weight proportionate should be so extreme in the gay community. This book documents performances at club events and examines how participants use allusion and campy-queer behavior to reconfigure and reclaim their sullied body images, focusing on the numerous tensions of marginalization and dignity that big gay men experience and how they negotiate these tensions via their membership to a size-positive group. Based on ethnographic interviews and in-depth field notes from more than 100 events at bar nights, café klatches, restaurants, potlucks, holiday bashes, pool parties, movie nights, and weekend retreats, the book explores the woundedness that comes from being relegated to an inferior position in gay hierarchies, and yet celebrates how some gay men can reposition the shame of fat stigma through carnival, camp, and play. A compelling and rich narrative, Fat Gay Men provides a rare glimpse into an unexplored dimension of weight and body image in American culture

    Abstract: "A day after N. first crossed the U.S. border from Mexico, he was caught and then released onto the streets of Tijuana. Undeterred, N. crawled back through a tunnel to San Diego, where he entered the United States forever. Illegal: Reflections of an Undocumented Immigrant is his timely and compelling memoir of building a new life in America. Authorial anonymity is required to protect this life. Arriving in the 1990s with a 9th grade education, N. traveled to Chicago where he found access to ESL classes and GED classes. He eventually attended college and graduate school and became a professional translator. Despite having a well-paying job, N. was isolated by a lack of official legal documentation. Travel concerns made big promotions out of reach. Vacation time was spent hiding at home, pretending that he was on a long-planned trip. The simple act of purchasing his girlfriend a beer at a Cubs baseball game caused embarrassment and shame when N. couldn't produce a valid ID. A frustrating contradiction, N. lived in a luxury high-rise condo but couldn't fully live the American dream. He did, however, find solace in the one gift America gave him--his education. Ultimately, N.'s is the story of the triumph of education over adversity. In Illegal he debunks the stereotype that undocumented immigrants are freeloaders without access to education or opportunity for advancement. With bravery and honesty, N. details the constraints, deceptions, and humiliations that characterize alien life "amid the shadows." "--

    Abstract: »Wann ist ein Mann ein Mann?« - Diese Frage hat in den letzten 20 Jahren nichts an Relevanz verloren. Auch in aktuellen Diskussionen behauptet die Denkform der Geschlechterdichotomie hartnäckig mediale Präsenz. Der Druck, sich für das eine oder andere - Mann-Sein oder Frau-Sein - zu entscheiden, ist nach wie vor groß. Dieses Buch zeigt, wie männliche Subjekte - trotz der scheinbaren Rigidität der Geschlechterdichotomie - in narrativen Formen unterschiedliche Spielarten von Männlichkeiten erproben. Eine aktuelle Standortbestimmung der kulturwissenschaftlichen Masculinity Studies im deutsch- und

    Abstract: Wie sich jener Menschen erinnern, die in einer hegemonialen Kultur unerwähnt bleiben? Das Verhältnis von Politik, Geschlecht und Gedächtnis ist eines der großen Problemstellungen der Gender Studies.

Wie greifen performative Prozesse in Empfindungen ein? In den Beiträgen dieses Bandes treffen Ansätze queer-feministischer Geschichtsschreibungen und biographische Erzählungen auf programmatische Untersuchungen der Verstrickungen von Geschlecht
