    Abstract: Großfürst Konstantin Nikolaevic (1827-1892) war einer der bemerkenswertesten russischen Staatsmänner des 19. Jahrhunderts. Der zweitgeborene Sohn von Kaiser Nikolaj I. begründete als General-Admiral der russischen Flotte im Marineministerium eine Kultur des Wandels in der St. Petersburger Politik, die dazu führte, dass sein Bruder, Kaiser Aleksandr II., Mitte der 1850er Jahre ein groß angelegtes Reformprogramm initiierte. Konstantin wurde bald unverzichtbar für die Politik im Reich seines Bruders: Er setzte die epochale Befreiung der Bauern aus der Leibeigenschaft durch und öffnete damit den Weg für weitere Modernisierungen der Autokratie. Als er kaiserlicher Statthalter im russisch beherrschten Polen wurde, verfolgte er die große Vision einer Versöhnung von Polen mit Russland auf der Grundlage von Respekt und Gesetzlichkeit, eine Vision, die jedoch im Aufstandskrieg von 1863 unterging.Matthias Stadelmanns Studie zur russischen Reformära verknüpft die Analyse entscheidender Wirkungsstationen des Großfürsten mit einer Kulturgeschichte des Politischen. Erst über die biographisch orientierte Betrachtung Konstantin Nikolaevics erschließen sich grundlegende Strukturen der Petersburger Politik: Reformdiskurse, Kommunikationsmechanismen, Handlungsstrategien und Entscheidungsfaktoren. Darüber hinaus gibt die Studie Einblick in die vielschichtige Persönlichkeit des Kaiserbruders, der - aufgeklärt und despotisch, kultiviert und schroff - seine Zeitgenossen stets polarisierte, gerade mit dieser Polarisierung aber Potential für Russlands historischen Wandel schuf. Vom eindrücklichen Beispiel des Großfürsten ausgehend stellt Stadelmann den persönlichen Faktor als entscheidendes Moment politischer Gestaltung im Russischen Kaiserreich heraus. ReiheForschungen zur osteuropäischen Geschichte - Band 79.

    Abstract: Die Region zwischen den Flüssen Tigris, Großer Zab und Diyala und den Randhängen des Zagros-Gebirges zeichnet sich durch eine große landschaftliche und klimatische Diversität aus. Diese prägte vom 7. bis 1. Jahrtausend v.Chr. nicht nur nachhaltig menschliches Siedlungsverhalten, sondern auch die wirtschaftlichen, politischen und kulturellen Beziehungen zu benachbarten Regionen, so dass sich das Gebiet in vielfacher Hinsicht als Grenzregion fassen lässt. Simone Mühl geht in ihrer Untersuchung zur wechselseitigen Geschichte des mittleren Osttigrisgebiets von archäologischem Material aus Notgrabungen des irakischen Antikendienstes in der Umgebung von Assur, der ersten Hauptstadt des assyrischen Reiches, aus. Um Aspekte kultureller Unterschiede oder Gemeinsamkeiten der Kulturgruppen nördlich und südlich des Kleinen Zab näher zu beleuchten, werden die Funde und Befunde dieser Untersuchungen in einen regionalen und überregionalen Kontext eingebettet. Zudem wird die Analyse des archäologischen Materials mit der Fernerkundung der Region anhand von Satellitenbildaufnahmen kombiniert. Dabei wird die Landschaft auf anthropogen verursachte Veränderungen untersucht und es konnten beispielsweise 1672 Tell- und Flachsiedlungen lokalisiert sowie das antike Verkehrs- und Bewässerungsnetz in erhaltenen Teilen kartiert, rekonstruiert und kontextualisiert werden. Mühls Studie liefert nicht nur wichtige Einblicke in das Wechselspiel von Innovation und Kulturtransfer, sondern auch in die Abgrenzung von Kulturgruppen im mittleren Osttigrisgebiet und bildet so die Grundlage für ein neues Verständnis ökonomischer und soziokultureller Entwicklungen, die der Region am Tigris ihr noch heute sichtbares Gepräge gegeben haben. ReiheAbhandlungen der Deutschen Orient-Gesellschaft - Band 28.

    Abstract: This concise book on agile and Scrum offers an alternative methodology for project planning in the communication branch in which flexibility is embraced and formalized. Dynamics and change are no longer obstacles, but simply elements of the method. Scrum was invented by two organization scholars and further developed in the information technology industry. Today, it is applied in many disciplines, but scarcely at all in the field of communication. That is expected to change swiftly. Scrum is now being applied experimentally in communication and users are highly enthusiastic.

    Abstract: This study raises awareness to the emergence of a new genre in world literatureóhybridized literature. It rejects the assumption according to which literatures written in less commonly taught languages should be subsumed into one universally accessible global idiom. Instead, Vakunta challenges literary scholars and readers of literature to regard untranslatability as the key to cross-cultural engagement. The bookís multiple approaches and innumerable sources generate complex interdisciplinary connections and provide an excellent introduction to a complex literary phenomenon alien to literati resident outside the officially bilingual multicultural and multilingual Republic of Cameroon.

    Abstract: Kniha se ve 24 kapitolách zabývá vybranými problémy tvorení slov v predklasické a klasické francouzštine 16. a 17. století. V první cásti se autor venuje nekterým teoretickým otázkám (problematika periodizace, lexikalizace, jazyková norma, morfologická produktivita, teorie optimality a její využití v diachronní morfologii, aj.), ve druhé je nekolik studií zamereno na konkrétní slovotvorné typy (nominalizace na -ment, -ance,-aison, problematika kolektivních substantiv na -age, aj.) a konkrétní historie urcitých slov (adjektiv tvorená od matin-, slova odvozovaná od základu assassin- aj.). Tretí cást analyzuje francouzsko-španelský slovník Jeana Palleta a postoj jazykových „pozorovatelu" 17. století k slovotvorbe.Le volume aborde, en 24 chapitres, un choix de problèmes liés à la formation des mots en français préclassique et classique. Dans la première partie, l'auteur analyse un certain nombre de questions à portée théorique (périodisation, lexicalisation, norme linguistique, productivité morphologique, théorie de l'optimalité et son utilisation en morphologie diachronique, etc.). Les études de la deuxième partie se focalisent sur des patrons dérivationnels concrets (nominalisations en -ment, -ance, -aison, évolution des noms collectifs en -age, etc.) et sur l'histoire de quelques mots concrets (adjectifs et noms formés, respectivement, à partir des bases matin- et assassin-, etc.). La troisième partie comprend une étude consacrée aux aspects morpholexicaux du dictionnaire français-espagnol de Jean Pallet et une autre qui aborde l'attitude des remarqueurs du XVIIe siècle vis-à-vis de la formation des mots.

    Abstract: Après avoir fait le point sur les connaissances en matière de « néonaticide », « filicide » et « infanticide », cet ouvrage se propose une analyse de situations infanticides à partir de dizaines de cas, depuis la mort du nouveau-né, parfois répétée plusieurs fois, jusqu'au meurtre de masse (plusieurs enfants).  Ces mères qui ont tué leur(s) bébé(s) ou leurs enfants sont habitées par une mélancolie particulière qui est au centre de ces histoires dramatiques, mais cependant toutes singulières. Cette mélancolie n'est pas une maladie mentale et se doit d'être expliquée, car incomprise, par le clinicien lors de procès souvent fort médiatisés.L'ouvrage, issu de l'expérience clinique de l'auteur, tente de décrypter et de répondre à une interrogation essentielle qui fait aujourd'hui débat : Comment certaines femmes se retrouvent-elles face à un besoin de « néantisation » qui les fait se supprimer en tant que mères ou conserver comme témoins de leur « maternalité » les corps de leurs nourrissons décédés ?.

    Keywords: Politischer Wandel ; Sozioökonomischer Wandel ; Kamerun
    Abstract: This book deals with a variety of socio-cultural, economic and political problems facing Cameroon and the rest of Africa, with particular reference to unemployment, corruption, poverty, criminality, violence, insecurity, and moral decadence. It presents a critical analysis of government policies from the colonial era to the present time; arguing that most of these policies have been stalled by an uncommitted leadership. The regime in Cameroon has drifted away from basic managerial and democratic principles in in favour of the ethnicisation of politics, sterile consumption, clientelism and patronage. The book contends that corruption has become the main instrument of governance whereby the political and economic elites control the wealth of the nation at the expense of a majority who wallow in abject poverty and misery. Faced with the difficult economic and political situation, most youth and the intelligentsia have adopted official and unofficial' means to circumvent all immigration rules to travel to affluent Western countries, the consequences notwithstanding. Brain drain is often the outcome. Further, it examines issues of social exclusion, political representation and marginalization with special focus on the predicament of Anglophone Cameroonians as a socio-cultural community. The inclusion of examples and case studies based on empirical and secondary data from Africa is intended to foreground the importance of comparison, and attract the interest of both academic and non-academic readership.

    Abstract: Auch mit der jüngsten Finanzkrise hat die Konsumkultur nichts von ihrer Bedeutung als massenkulturelles Phänomen eingebüßt. Im Gegenteil: Das aktuelle Krisenbewusstsein sucht Halt im Konsum, der seinen Verfechtern noch immer als Modell demokratischer Teilhabe an gesellschaftlicher Produktion gilt. Zugleich ist die Konsumkritik der 1960er Jahre in Richtung eines intelligenten und nachhaltigen Konsums weitergeführt worden, und selbstbewusste Konsumenten treten nun als emanzipierte »Prosumer« und Mitakteure des Marktes auf. Das Buch entwickelt aus Sicht von Design, Kunst, Soziologie, Marketing und Medien neue Perspektiven auf das Phänomen Konsum.   Rezension Besprochen in: saldo, 6 (2013) Insider, 7 (2013) www.lehrerbibliothek.de, 25.11.2013, Oliver Neumann.

    Abstract: Die Beherrschung der ländlichen Welt stellt bis ins Spätmittelalter die wichtigsten Ressourcen und Fundamente der Herrschaft von Adel, Kirche, Fürsten und Königen. In der Deutschen historiographischen Tradition wird diese Struktur mit dem Begriff "Grundherrschaft" bezeichnet. Der vorliegende Band enthält die nun auch auf deutsch vorliegenden Ergebnisse einer Tagung des Trienter Instituts. Die Autoren problematisieren diesen Begriff einerseits in der - inzwischen unterschiedlichen - Sicht der deutschen, italienischen und französischen Geschichtsschreibung. Andererseits bringen die Verfasser synthetische, landesgeschichtlich fundierte Zusammenfassungen und Weiterführungen der Forschungsergebnisse der letzten Jahrzehnte für Deutschland (einschließlich Ostdeutschlands) und Oberitalien. Die Gemeinsamkeiten, vor allem aber die Unterschiede der rechtlich-sozialen Grundstrukturen wie ihrer begrifflichen Deutung nördlich und südlich der Alpen treten durch den Vergleich deutlich hervor.   Inhaltsverzeichnis Inhalt: C.

    Abstract: Anthropology of Eastern Religions: Ideas, Organizations, and Constituencies is a comparative survey of the world's major religious traditions as professional enterprises and, often, as social movements. Documenting the principle ideas behind Eastern religious traditions from an anthropological perspective, Murray J. Leaf demonstrates how these ideas have been used in building internal organizations that mobilize or fail to mobilize external support.

    Abstract: Die wichtigsten Publikationen der Kabarettistin, Vortragskünstlerin und Filmschauspielerin Resi Langer. Die Kabarettistin und Schauspielerin Resi Langer erregte in den künstlerisch turbulenten Jahren vor dem Ersten Weltkrieg in Berlin mit der Rezitation von Rokokogedichten in zeitgenössischen Kostümen Aufsehen. Aufmerksam geworden ist sie auf die erotische Literatur des 18. Jahrhunderts durch den expressionistischen Dichter Ernst Stadler. In Alfred Richard Meyers Reihe »Lyrische Flugblätter«, in der u.a. Gottfried Benns »Morgue«-Gedichte Furore machten, stellte sie die kleine Sammlung »Rokoko. Ein lyrisches Flugblatt anonymer Autoren« (1913) zusammen. Ihre Erfahrungen mit dem neuen Medium des Films reflektiert sie in ihren vor dem ersten Weltkrieg entstandenen, 1919 veröffentlichten »Kinotypen. Vor und hinter den Filmkulissen. Zwölf Kapitel aus der Kinderstube des Films«, die durchaus als Vorläufer der Feuilletons Siegfried Kracauers zum Film betrachtet werden können. Die vorliegende Edition umfasst diese beiden größeren Publikationen sowie einen Kommentarteil und ein Vorwort zur Biographie der Künstlerin, zur zeitgenössischen Rezeption ihres künstlerischen Schaffens und vor allem zur Darstellung der zu dieser Zeit virulenten Rokokomode.   Biographische Informationen Johanna Egger, geb. 1986, Literaturwissenschaftlerin, wissenschaftliche Hilfskraft am Seminar für Deutsche Philologie an der Georg-August-Universität Göttingen. Jeanette Wiede, geb. 1963, Arbeit als Redakteurin, Drehbuchautorin und Regisseurin, studentische Hilfskraft am Seminar für Deutsche Philologie der Georg-August-Universität Göttingen.

    Abstract: As Africa and its diaspora commemorate fifty years of post-independence Pan-Africanism, this unique and sometimes provocative collection of biographical essays provides profound insight into the thirteen prominent individuals of African descent who have won the Nobel Peace Prize since 1950. From the first American president of African descent, Barack Obama, whose father was Kenyan and whose career was inspired by the civil rights and anti-apartheid struggles promoted by other key individuals such as Marin Luther King, Jr., Nelson Mandela, Desmond Tutu, and Albert Luthuli; to influential figures in peacemaking such as Ralph Bunche, Anwar Sadat, Kofi Annan, and F.W. De Klerk; as well as Ellen Johnson Sirleaf, Leymah Gbowee, Wangari Maathai, and Mohamed El-Baradei, who have been variously involved in women's rights, environmental protection, and nuclear disarmament, Africa's Peacemakers reveals how this remarkable collection of individuals have changed the world - for better or worse.

    Abstract: In our increasingly complicated and data-driven world, many new developments are so complex that only experts comprehend their nuances. But what they don't grasp is how to tell the world about them. Communicating technical content to nontechnical listeners has fast become a critical 21st-century skill. Explaining what you do and why it's important drives funding, policy decisions, media exposure, public awareness, and customer adoption. This groundbreaking guide will help anyone to deliver clear, persuasive messages that win hearts, minds, and budgets. Supercommunicator explains how to: ● Distill details and data into big ideas ● Deliver meaning to audiences ● Use storytelling to captivate and educate ● Humanize content to make complicated ideas more tangible ● Layer harder ideas on top of easier ideas ● Strip away complex language, jargon, and acronyms ● Use analogies to explain unfamiliar areas ● Master new digital modes of expression ● And more Enhanced with a wealth of examples--from how the National Academy of Sciences used audience research to improve the way evolution is taught, to how NASA incorporated cutting-edge tools to visualize issues in climatology--this one-of-a-kind book reveals how to make the complex comprehensible, and the dry deeply compelling.

    Abstract: An Bahnhöfen, vor Fußballstadien, in Stadtgärten und Fußgängerzonen, überall trifft man sie an: die Pfandsammler. Es sind Männer und Frauen, alte und junge, und sie gehören spätestens seit der Einführung des Pfandes auf Einweggetränkeverpackungen im Jahre 2006 zum Bild einer jeden deutschen Großstadt. Verdienen kann man mit dem Aufklauben von Dosen und Flaschen kaum etwas; diese nur vordergründige rein ökonomische Aktivität erlaubt es noch nicht einmal, die eigene Existenz auf minimale Weise selbstständig zu sichern. Zudem werden diese Menschen, die mit ihren Händen tief in die Abfalltonne der Innenstädte greifen, die öffentlichen Plätze vom Unrat der anderen reinigen und dann mit dem signifikanten Klappern der Flaschen in ihren Tüten weiterziehen, zumeist nur toleriert oder gar vor aller Augen erniedrigt. Ihnen haftet das Etikett des Drecksarbeiters, Penners und Schmarotzers an. Die vermeintlich einfache Frage, warum Menschen trotz all dieser widrigen Umstände tagtäglich aufs Neue durch die Straßen der Großstädte ziehen, welche Aussagen die Betrachungen dieser Sozialfigur in Bezug auf Prekarität und Marginalität, auf Armut und Einsamkeit in unserer modernen Gesellschaft zum Ausdruck bringt, erkundet die vorliegende Studie. Den heutigen Sammlern von Pfandflaschen werden historische Gefährten vergleichend zur Seite gestellt. Sie sammelten Holz, Lumpen und Ähren und fügten sich in ihre Rollen in den jeweiligen gesellschaftlichen Gebilden. Sebastian J. Moser legt mit diesem Buch die bisher einzige wissenschaftliche Auseinandersetzung mit der Figur des Pfandsammlers vor. Die Arbeit räumt mit gängigen Klischees auf, ermöglicht einen Einblick in die Welt der Pfandsammler und führt zu überraschenden Einsichten in die Verfasstheit unserer modernen Gesellschaft.   Biographische Informationen Sebastian J.

Contradicting this widespread attitude, Stephen Kershnar's Gratitude toward Veterans: A Philosophical Explanation of Why American Should Not Be Very Grateful to Veterans argues that U.S. citizens should not be very grateful to veterans.

    Abstract: Author Angelo Codevilla asks, What is to be America's peace? How is it to be won and preserved in our time? He notes that our government's increasingly unlimited powers flow in part from our statesmen's inability to stay out of wars or to win them and that our statesmen and academics have ceased to think about such things. The purpose of this book is to rekindle such thoughts. The author reestablishes early American statecraft's understanding of peace-what it takes to make it and what it takes to keep it. He reminds Americans why our founding generation placed the pursuit of peace ahead of all other objectives; he shows how they tried to keep the peace by drawing sharp lines between America's business and that of others, as well as between peace and war. He shows how our 20th-century statesmen confused peace and war as well as America's affairs with that of mankind's. The result, he shows, has been endless war abroad and spiraling strife among Americans. Codevilla provides intellectual guidelines for recovering the pursuit of peace as the guiding principle by which the American people and statesmen may navigate domestic as well as international affairs.

    Abstract: It is my thesis that this general production of life, or subsistence production - mainly performed through the nonwage labour of women and other nonwage labourers as slaves, contract workers and peasants in the colonies - constitues the perennial basis upon which "capitalist productive labour" can be built up and exploited.' First published in 1986, Maria Mies's progressive book was hailed as a major paradigm shift for feminist theory, and it remains a major contribution to development theory and practice today. Tracing the social origins of the sexual division of labour, it offers a history of the related processes of colonization and 'housewifization' and extends this analysis to the contemporary new international division of labour. Mies's theory of capitalist patriarchy has become even more relevant today. This new edition includes a substantial new introduction in which she both applies her theory to the new globalized world and answers her critics.

    Keywords: Geschichte ; Märchen
    Abstract: From wicked queens, beautiful princesses, elves, monsters, and goblins to giants, glass slippers, poisoned apples, magic keys, and mirrors, the characters and images of fairy tales have cast a spell over readers and audiences, both adults and children, for centuries. These fantastic stories have travelled across cultural borders, and been passed on from generation to generation, ever-changing, renewed with each re-telling. Few forms of literature have greater powerto enchant us and rekindle our imagination than a fairy tale. But what is a fairy tale? Where do they come from and what do they mean? What do they try and communicate to us about morality, sexuality, and society? The range of fairy tales stretches across great distances and time; their history is entangled with folklore and myth, and their inspiration draws on ideas about nature and the supernatural, imagination and fantasy, psychoanalysis, and feminism. Marina Warner has loved fairy tales over a long writing life, and she explores here a multitude of tales through the ages, their different manifestations on the page, the stage, and the screen. From the phenomenal rise of Victorian and Edwardian literature to contemporary children's stories, Warner unfolds a glittering array of examples, from classics such as Red Riding Hood, Cinderella, and The Sleeping Beauty, the Grimm Brothers' Hansel and Gretel, and HansAndersen's The Little Mermaid, to modern-day realizations including Walt Disney's Snow White and gothic interpretations such as Pan's Labyrinth. In ten succinct chapters, Marina Warner digs into a rich hoard of fairy tales in their brilliant and fantastical variations, in order to define a genre and evaluate a literary form that keeps shifting through time and history. Her book makes a persuasive case for fairy tale as a crucial repository of human understanding and culture.

    Abstract: Medien haben als Begriff und Forschungsthema Hochkonjunktur. Dies gilt auch innerhalb der Soziologie: »media go society«. Die hier vorgestellte Mediensoziologie stellt sich in unmittelbare Nähe zur Gesellschaftstheorie und untersucht die komplexen Wechselwirkungen zwischen Gesellschaft, Medien und Individuum. Behandelt werden u.a. das Verhältnis von Medienwandel und Gesellschaftsstrukturen, Geschichte und Theorie der Öffentlichkeit, die Funktionen des autonomen Sozialsystems der Massenmedien und die Bedeutung massenmedialer Formate für Identitäts- und Individualisierungsprozesse. Zudem gibt das Buch einen Ausblick auf die aktuelle Selbstbeschreibungsformel der »Mediengesellschaft«.   Rezension »Ziemanns 'Soziologie der Medien' ist systematisch aufgebaut, klar formuliert, an vielen Stellen äußerst anregend und verdient eine breite Leserschaft.« Nicole Zillien, Medien & Kommunikationswissenschaft, 1 (2007) zur ersten Auflage Besprochen in: MEDIENwissenschaft, 2 (2007), Matthias Schmidt GMK-Newsletter, 1 (2013) GMK-Newsletter, 3 (2013) GMK-Newsletter, 4 (2013).

    Abstract: Tracking the evolution of digital technology is no easy task; changes happen so fast that keeping pace presents quite a challenge. This is, nevertheless, the aim of the Digital Enlightenment Yearbook.This book is the third in the series which began in 2012 under the auspices of the Digital Enlightenment Forum. This year, the focus is on the relationship of individuals with their networks, and explores "Social networks and social machines, surveillance and empowerment". In what is now the well-established tradition of the yearbook, different stakeholders in society and various disciplinary communities (technology, law, philosophy, sociology, economics, policymaking) bring their very different opinions and perspectives to bear on this topic.The book is divided into four parts: the individual as data manager; the individual, society and the market; big data and open data; and new approaches. These are bookended by a Prologue and an Epilogue, which provide illuminating perspectives on the discussions in between. The division of the book is not definitive; it suggests one narrative, but others are clearly possible.The 2014 Digital Enlightenment Yearbook gathers together the science, social science, law and politics of the digital environment in order to help us reformulate and address the timely and pressing questions which this new environment raises. We are all of us affected by digital technology, and the subjects covered here are consequently of importance to us all.

    DDC: 394.26951
    Abstract: 'The Festival of March the Third' is the day of sacrifice to ancestors, gods, and saints in China. This book introduces the origin, development, dissemination, activities, and distinctive local features of this Chinese festival. Different from 'The Tomb-Sweeping Day,' 'The Festival of March the Third' has religious implications for worshipping Buddhism and Taoism, warding off evil spirits, and purifying the mind. The book - written in an English-Chinese bilingual text - not only introduces the history and development of the festival, but also presents many touching folk tales and heroic legends which are associated with the festival. (Series: Chinese Festival Culture) [Subject: Anthropology, Chinese Studies, Asian Studies, Cultural Studies].

    Abstract: Erfährt der Mensch ein Update, wie es der Prothetiker Hugh Herr mit seiner Formel von den »Humans 2.0« prophezeit? Die Diskussion um die Hightech-Prothesen eines Oscar Pistorius oder um Aufsehen erregende körpernahe Medien wie die Google-Brille zeigen einen Wandel der Ideen von Körperlichkeit: Verbessernde Eingriffe in und um den Körper werden nicht länger als notwendige Kompensation von Defiziten begriffen, sondern als wünschenswerte Optimierung und Steigerung. Werden Körper »machbar«? Karin Harrasser situiert diese aktuellen Diskurse und Praktiken des Körpers und entwirft einen anderen Blick auf sie. Wie lässt sich über Technologien, Medien und Körper aus der Perspektive von teilsouveränem Handeln und Parahumanität sprechen?   Is mankind being updated, as prosthetist Hugh Herr predicts with his formula of »Humans 2.0«? The discussion about the high tech prosthetic limbs of Oscar Pistorius or about exciting, body contact media like Google Glass show a shift in concepts of physicality: an improvement procedure in or around the body is no longer considered a necessary compensation of deficits, but a desirable optimization and enhancement. Are bodies becoming »makeable«? Karin Harrasser situates these current discourses and practices of the body and designs a different view of them. How can we speak about technologies, media, and bodies from the perspective of partially sovereign action and para-humanity?   Rezension »Beeindruckender Essay.« Rolf Löchel, www.literaturkritik.de, 03.06.2014 »Ein spannender Ansatz.« Tanja Paar, diestandard.at, 03.12.2013 »Dieses [...] Buch zu lesen macht mit jeder Zeile Vergnügen.« Britta Schinzel, Freiburger Universitätsblätter, 203/1 (2014) »Wie es [...] gelingen kann, der Dauerpräsenz überindividueller, nicht-menschlicher Wesen im Zusammenleben sinnvoll zu begegnen, wird angesichts der wachsenden Möglichkeiten...

    Series Statement: Cases in Modern Chinese Business
    DDC: 306.360951
    Abstract: Many people want to do business with China, but very few foreign business people have an understanding and appreciation of how business is actually conducted in the country. This book offers insights into the history, philosophy, and practice of business in China today. The book begins by asking several key questions about business in China: Why is it a common phenomenon in China that one prefers being a leader in a small organization to being led in a big one? Why is it common in Chinese enterprises that within an organization there is generally a bureaucracy to control a network of comparatively independent sub-units? There are different forms of self-organized sub-units within an enterprise, such as affiliated subsidiaries or self-directed teams, contracted out business units, independent local branches, profit-center departments, and internal startup teams. Why do Chinese enterprises always network with each other to realize an all-win situation? These cooperative networks include regional business groups, small enterprise networks, platform-based models, network consolidators, and industry networks characterized by one town focusing on a single industry. In exploring these questions, the book examines the form and structure of Chinese social networks and indigenous management. It looks at the origins and importance of Chinese management philosophies, including "Guanxi" management - a concept and practice crucial to understanding business in China and increasingly central to management teaching in China. Guanxi is examined in great detail and from various dynamics and perspectives. The book is based upon a series of lecturers given to management students at the prestigious Tsinghua University in Beijing. Therefore, it also offers an insight into what China's business leaders of the future are learning. (Series: Cases in Modern Chinese...

    Keywords: Geschichte 1850-1945 ; Liberalismus ; Akademiker ; Ungarn
    Abstract: In this important new historical study, Maria Kovacs examines the struggle between liberal and anti-Semitic policies among professional groups--doctors, lawyers, engineers--in Hungary. Kovacs's main emphasis is on the interwar period when unemployment, expansion of the welfare system, and competition for state jobs during the Great Depression, combined with crass anti-Semitism on the part of engineers and medical associations, radically altered previously liberal policies of open entry and equal educational opportunity. Liberal Professions and Illiberal Politics analyzes to what extent these new policies were dictated by authoritarian governments from above and to what extent they originated within the professions themselves. The story ends with the Holocaust, which sealed the fate of those professionals who had become victims of persecution under the German occupation of Hungary.

    Abstract: This book traces the history of language technology from writing - the first technology specifically designed for language - to digital speech and other contemporary language systems. The book describes the social impact of technological developments over five millennia, and addresses topics such as the ways in which literacy has influenced cognitive and scientific development; the social impact of modern speech technology; the influence of various printing technologies; the usesand limitations of machine translation; how far mass information access is a means for exploitation or enlightenment; the deciphering of ancient scripts; and technical aids for people with language disabilities. Richard Sproat writes in a clear, readable style, introducing linguistic and other scientific concepts as they are needed. His book offers fascinating reading for everyone interested in how language and technology have shaped and continue to shape our day-to-day lives.

    Abstract: Offers insights into the hopes and aspirations of British Muslims from remarkably diverse ethnicities. In Britain's highly politicised social climate in the aftermath of the 7/7 London bombings, this book provides an in-depth understanding of British Muslim identity. Nahid Kabir has carried out over 200 in-depth, semi-structured interviews with young Muslims in five British cities: London, Leicester, Bradford, Leeds and Cardiff. By emphasising the importance of biculturalism, Kabir conveys a realistic and hopeful vision for their successful integration into British society.

    Abstract: This book argues that contemporary research on the lives and experiences of women of color tends to neglect the influence of women's perceived access to voice on how they manage tensions related to race, class, and gender. This book explores the politics of pursuing voice by women of color across various social contexts.

    Abstract: Food and eating has always been endowed with meanings. It is one of the most visible and important symbols of identity and difference, uniting the members of a community and segregating them from other communities. This inclusion and exclusion can be observed not only in what they eat or what they are known to eat, but also how they eat, how they prepare and serve their food, and what happens after food is taken. The study of food politics and questions of identity and difference can, therefore, be a means of understanding the underlying social relations in any culture and its quiescent philosophy.This ethnographic work discusses the politics inherent in food among the Garos of Assam (India) and Bangladesh. In these two areas, they live as a minority, and with and in the peripheries of a dominant non-Garo culture. Thus, this book examines the ways in which Garos conceptualize themselves and the 'other' world through the microcosm of food - the most important need of all. It discusses, among other topics, how the concepts of Garo food versus non-Garo food find fruition in social reality and collective memory, as an identity marker.

    Abstract: Nomaden scheinen aus unserem Alltag fast vollständig verschwunden zu sein. Doch die Abhängigkeit von Mobilität, die Bewältigung finanzieller Unsicherheiten sowie der ausgewogene Umgang mit unserer Umwelt fordern alle, auch 'moderne' Gesellschaften heraus. In der Wahrnehmung von Sesshaften verkörpern Nomaden und andere Mobile bis heute allerdings oft das Rückständige, Fremde und Bedrohliche, besonders im Hinblick auf staatliche Ordnungen. Dieser Band zeigt Nomaden hingegen als frühe Globalisierer. Er verdeutlicht, welche Flexibilität sie im Umgang mit widrigen Bedingungen entfalten, wie sie ihr Überleben in karger Umwelt gestalten und wie sie es schaffen, über Jahrtausende nachhaltig mit knappen Ressourcen zu wirtschaften.   Rezension Besprochen in: pw-portal.de, 1 (2012), Natalie Wohlleben Erdkunde, 66/2 (2012), Eckart Ehlers.
