    Abstract: This volume explores the nature of civil war in the modern world and in historical perspective. Civil wars represent the principal form of armed conflict since the end of the Second World War, and certainly in the contemporary era. The nature and impact of civil wars suggests that these conflicts reflect and are also a driving force for major societal change. In this sense, Understanding Civil Wars: Continuity and change in intrastate conflict argues that the nature of civil war is not fundamentally changing in nature.The book includes a thorough consideration of patterns and types of intrasta

    Abstract: Many sociologists have maintained that trust is the glue of social life. Trudy Govier confirms this view in a sustained discussion of the concept and contexts of trust, showing that trust is more significant and more prevalent than is usually assumed. She argues that social bonding is built on trust and maintains that trust is essential if we are to live ethically, responsibly, and well.

    Abstract: Fur Hochschulen in Deutschland ist Internationalitat ein Aushangeschild, dahinter jedoch spielen machtvolle Unterscheidungen eine Rolle. An diesem Spannungsverhaltnis zwischen Offenheit und Ausgrenzung setzt die Autorin an. In die Diskussion eingebracht werden hier als Portrats illustrierte Wahrnehmungen von BildungsMigrantInnen aus Marokko. Uber zwei Jahre wurden dort Studieninteressierte begleitet und Interviews mit dann tatsachlich nach Deutschland Migrierten gefuhrt. Inwieweit stellt sich aus deren Perspektive Migration fur Bildung als ein gelingendes bzw. gelungenes Vorhaben dar? Welche Anregungen lassen sich daraus fur die Gestaltung transnationalen Studierens ableiten? Zu Migration, Kolonialismus und Bildung greift die Studie auch Positionen marokkanischer bzw. afrikanischer AutorInnen und Diskurse aus Sozial- und Kulturwissenschaften auf und schließt mit konkreten Ansatzpunkten fur die Umsetzung einer subjektorientierten Internationalitat an Hochschulen in Deutschland.

    Abstract: Prof. Dr. Michael Fritsch lehrt Volkswirtschaftslehre an der Friedrich-Schiller-Universität Jena mit dem Schwerpunkt Innovation, Entrepreneurship und wirtschaftlicher Wandel. Wirtschaftspolitische Eingriffe werden häufig damit begründet, dass der Markt „versagt". Das zentrale Thema dieses Buches ist die Rechtfertigung solcher Maßnahmen auf der Grundlage der mikroökonomischen Theorie. Wann ist staatliches Eingreifen aufgrund einer mangelnden Funktionsweise des Marktes erforderlich? Auf welche Weise sollte ein solcher Eingriff erfolgen? Im ersten Teil des Buches wird gezeigt, wie ein Markt funk

    Abstract: Produkte sind Kopfgeburten. Die Vorstellung, dass sie aus einer Fabrik kommen, sei diese ein Hinterhof oder das machtige Werksgelande eines Industriegiganten, ist naiv. Naivitat ist die der schopferischen Kreativitat vorgelagerte Wahrnehmungsstufe der unvoreingenommenen Anschaulichkeit. Anschaulichkeit ist eine Sinnesleistung des Gehirns, das die mentale Konstruktion inhaltlich belebt und antreibt. Die schopferische Leistung aber ereignet sich im Gestaltkreis des tatigen Menschen, dessen mentales Potenzial die physische Konstruktion leitet. Der kulturfahige Kopf des Menschen ist ein Erzeugnis der sozialen Kommunikation, die heute in der Offentlichkeit von weit reichenden Medien getragen und beherrscht wird. Der soziale Ort der Erzeugung von Produkten ist der Markt, nicht die industrielle Werkstatt. Ein betriebswirtschaftliches Gesetz ist der mediale Charakter der Produkte jedoch nur dann, wenn sich die Marketingtheorie von veralteten Vorstellungen uber das Produzieren und Verkaufen von Produkten lost.

    Abstract: To celebrate the twentieth anniversary of Sharon Hays' landmark book, The Cultural Contradictions of Motherhood, this collection will revisit Hays' concept of "intensive mothering" as a continuing, yet controversial representation of modern motherhood. In Hays' original work, she spoke of "intensive mothering" as primarily being conducted by mothers, centered on children's needs with methods informed by experts, which are labour- intensive and costly simply because children are entitled to this maternal investment. While respecting the important need for connection between mother and baby that is prevalent in the teachings of Attachment Theory, this collection raises into question whether an over-investment of mothers in their children's lives is as effective a mode of parenting, as being conveyed by representations of modern motherhood. In a world where in- dependence is encouraged, why are we still engaging in "intensive motherhood?

    Abstract: Mediatisierungsforschung beschaftigt sich mit der Frage, wie sich Alltag und Institutionen, Kultur und Gesellschaft dadurch wandeln, dass Menschen immer mehr mit und in Bezug auf Medien handeln und kommunizieren: Dieser Prozess wird hier Mediatisierung genannt, weil Kommunikation immer haufiger in medienvermittelter und mediatisierter Form stattfindet. Fur die empirische Untersuchung wird auf das Konzept der ?sozialen Welten" zuruckgegriffen - die verschiedenen Lebensbereiche wie Beruf und Familie, Unterhaltung und Fernsehen, Alltag und soziale Beziehungen, Politik und Lernen sind davon alle, aber auf unterschiedliche Weise betroffen. Im DFG-geforderten Schwerpunktprogramm ?Mediatisierte Welten" untersuchen Wissenschaftlerinnen und Wissenschaftler unterschiedlicher Disziplinen diese Sachverhalte seit mehreren Jahren. In dem vorliegenden Band werden nun nicht primar empirische Befunde sondern ubergreifende theoretische Uberlegungen publiziert, die sich je auf Uberlegungen und empirische Ergebnisse aus unterschiedlichen Projekten und Disziplinen ergeben.

    Abstract: Wer etwas fur das Verstandnis seiner wissenschaftlichen Arbeit, fur sein Fach und fur wissenschaftliches Denken uberhaupt tun will, muss nicht nur schreiben konnen; er muss es auch tun. Jutta von Campenhausen zeigt, warum es nicht reicht, Wissenschaftskommunikation den Presseleuten und Offentlichkeitsarbeitern zu uberlassen. Anhand vieler Beispiele belegt sie, wie und wo das Schreiben fur Laien sinnvoll ist. Wissenschaftler, die selbst gut und glaubwurdig uber ihr Tun reden und in Zeitungen, Zeitschriften und im Internet publizieren, erreichen nicht nur skeptische Laien, sondern auch Fachkollegen und fordern nachweislich ihre Karriere.

    Abstract: Das Buch bietet neue Erkenntnisse zu Vertrauen als Modus sozialer Regulierung in der Arbeitswelt. Das hier entwickelte Konzept des reflexiv-erfahrungsbasierten Vertrauens eroffnet einen Zugang zu Vertrauen jenseits traditioneller Vertrautheit und moderner rationaler Kalkulation. Ausgelotet wird die Moglichkeit und Notwendigkeit einer kooperativen Arbeitspolitik trotz antagonistischer Interessen. Eine leitende These: Der Wandel von Arbeit fuhrt zu Anforderungen und Potenzialen in der Arbeitspolitik, die uber explizite und formelle Regelungen hinausgehen. Vertrauen in Unternehmen wird zumeist auf den Handlungsspielraum der Mitarbeiter bezogen und damit als Vertrauen von Unternehmen gegenuber den Arbeitnehmern diskutiert. Hier wird hingegen das Vertrauen der Arbeitnehmer gegenuber den Unternehmen in den Blick geruckt, das speziell bei selbstverantwortlicher Arbeit notwendig ist. In funf Fallstudien werden Wege aufgezeigt, wie sich Unternehmen als vertrauenswurdig erweisen konnen und welche Voraussetzungen, Chancen und Risiken fur Unternehmen und Arbeitnehmer damit verbunden sind.

    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: This book documents the findings of a 3-year longitudinal study on the quality of family life, personal well-being and risk behavior in Chinese adolescents in Hong Kong. It presents the profiles of quality of family life (family functioning, parental behavioral control, parental psychological control and parent-child relational qualities); personal well-being (positive youth development and life satisfaction measures) and adolescent risk behavior (substance abuse, delinquency, self-harm and suicidal behavior and behavioral intentions to engage in risk behavior) in different adolescent populations across time. It also examines theoretical issues concerning the interrelationships between family quality of life, psychological well-being and risk behavior in adolescents. Practically speaking, the findings can help youth workers appreciate the importance of family quality of life and positive youth development in shaping the personal well-being and risk behavior in Chinese adolescents in Hong Kong.

    Abstract: Policymakers around the world are increasingly concerned about the likely impact of climate change and environmental degradation on the movement of people. This book takes a hard look at the existing evidence available to policymakers in different regions of the world. How much do we really know about the impact of environmental change on migration? How will different regions of the world be affected in the future?  Is there evidence to show that migration can help countries adapt to environmental change ? What types of research have been conducted, how reliable is the evidence? These are some of the questions considered in this book, which presents, for the first time, a synthesis of relevant research findings for each major region of the world.   Written by regional experts, the book provides a comprehensive overview of the key findings of existing studies on the linkages between environmental change and the movement of people. More and more reports on migration and the environment are being published, but the information is often scattered between countries and within regions, and it is not always clear how much of this information is based on solid research. This book brings this evidence together for the first time, highlighting innovative studies and research gaps.  In doing this, the book seeks to help decision-makers draw lessons from existing studies and to identify priorities for further research

    Abstract: This book explores schools and how they can function as social institutions that advance the interests and life chances of all young people, especially those who are already the most marginalized and at an educational disadvantage. Social justice is a key theme as the book examines the needs of youth, the concept of school culture, school/community relations, socially critical pedagogy, curriculum and leadership and a socially critical approach to work. The Socially Just School is based upon four decades of intensive writing and researching of young lives. This work presents an alternative to the damaging school reform in which schools are made to serve the interests of the economy, education systems, the military, corporate or national interests. Readers will discover the hallmarks of socially just schools: - They educationally engage young people regardless of class, race, family or neighbourhood location and they engage them around their own educational aspirations. - They regard all young people as being morally entitled to a rewarding and satisfying experience of school, not only those whose backgrounds happen to fit with the values of schools.- They treat young people as having strengths and being 'at promise' rather than being 'at risk' and with 'deficits' or as 'bundles of pathologies' to be remedied or 'fixed'. - They are 'active listeners' to the lives and cultures of their students and communities and they construct learning experiences that are embedded in young lives. This highly readable book will appeal to students and scholars in education and sociology, as well as to teachers and school administrators with an interest in soci.

    Abstract: ?Imke von Bargen geht der Frage nach, ob und inwieweit der Lehrerberuf heute von kollektiven Erfahrungen und Entwicklungen gepragt wird. Vor dem Hintergrund globaler Prozesse und einem damit einhergehenden veranderten Steuerungsdenken sowie global ahnlichen bildungspolitischen Maßnahmen untersucht die Autorin, was das berufliche Selbstverstandnis pragt und konstituiert, ohne dabei die Rolle der Nation und des Schulsystems eines jeweiligen Landes zu vernachlassigen. Dies wird mithilfe eines landerubergreifenden Ansatzes, der die Bildungssysteme in England und Deutschland in den Blick nimmt, verdeutlicht. Es handelt sich um eine qualitative Studie, die anhand teilstrukturierter Leitfadeninterviews das berufliche Selbstverstandnis der Lehrerinnen und Lehrer erforscht und in Kombination von Inhaltsanalyse und Typenbildung auswertet.?.

    Abstract: The essays in this book look at the question of how to study women's representation and women's political interests. Following a theoretical positioning of the meaning of women's "interests", the book looks at descriptive representation in political parties, high courts, and legislatures, as well as how definitions of "interest" affect who represents women in legislatures and social movements. Chapters include cases from the United States, Latin America, Western Europe and Africa.

    Abstract: Why, despite massive public concern, is child trafficking on the rise? Why are unaccompanied migrant children living on the streets and routinely threatened with deportation to their countries of origin? Why do so many young refugees of war-ravaged and failed states end up warehoused in camps, victimized by the sex trade, or enlisted as child soldiers? This book provides the first comprehensive account of the widespread but neglected global phenomenon of child migration, exploring the complex challenges facing children and adolescents who move to join their families, those who are moved to be

    DDC: 305
    Keywords: Habermas, Jürgen ; Social structure ; Transnationalism ; Political sociology ; Electronic books ; Electronic books ; Electronic books
    Abstract: Is Habermas’s concept of the public sphere still relevant in an age of globalization, when the transnational flows of people and information have become increasingly intensive and when the nation-state can no longer be taken granted as the natural frame for social and political debate? This is the question posed with characteristic acuity by Nancy Fraser in her influential article ‘Transnationalizing the Public Sphere?’ Challenging careless uses of the term ‘global public sphere’, Fraser raises the debate about the nature and role of the public sphere in a global age to a new level. While drawing on the richness of Habermas’s conception and remaining faithful to the spirit of critical theory, Fraser thoroughly reconstructs the concepts of inclusion, legitimacy and efficacy for our globalizing times. This book includes Fraser’s original article as well as specially commissioned contributions that raise searching questions about the theoretical assumptions and empirical grounds of Fraser’s argument. They are concerned with the fundamental premises of Habermas’s development of the concept of the public sphere as a normative ideal in complex societies; the significance of the fact that the public sphere emerged in modern states that were also imperial; whether ‘scaling up’ to a global public sphere means giving up on local and national publics; the role of ‘counterpublics’ in developing alternative globalization; and what inclusion might possibly mean for a global public. Fraser responds to these questions in detail in an extended reply to her critics. An invaluable resource for students and scholars concerned with the role of the public sphere beyond the nation-state, this book will also be welcomed by anyone interested in globalization and democracy today. Nancy Fraser is Henry A. and Louise Loeb Professor of Political and Social Science and Department Chair at the New School for Social Research. Kate Nash is Joint Director of the Centre for the Study of Global Media and Democracy at Goldsmiths, University of London, and a Fellow of the Center for Cultural Sociology at Yale University.

    Abstract: The Roman Mother, first published in 1988, traces the traditional Roman attitude towards mothers to its republican origins, examining the diverse roles and the relative power and influence associated with motherhood.The importance of the paterfamilias with his wide-ranging legal rights and obligations is familiar, but much less attention has been devoted to the equally interesting position and duties of mothers and the particular limitations on their actions. The author considers the legal position of the mother, the status of the widow and her testamentary position; the official promotion of

    Abstract: New Europe: Imagined Spaces traces the radical transformation of European places and spaces over the last two decades. Instead of the familiar 'schoolbook' map of a Europe of nation-states, the book unpacks the differing imaginations of European identity in recent years. Taking as its central problem the fluid nature of cultural and political identity, it moves firmly away from - and calls into question - the perspective of the nation-state as the primary source of imagined identity for Europeans. The book contributes to key debates, such as the emerging Europe of the Regions and the return o

    Abstract: The year "1968" marked the climax of protests that simultaneously captured most industrialized Western countries. The protesters challenged the institutions of Western democracies, confronting powerful, established parties and groups with an opposing force and public presence that negated tra­ditional structures of institutional authority and criticized the basic assump­tions of the post-war order. Exploring the effects the protest movement of 1968 had on the political, social, and symbolic order of the societies they called into question, this volume focuses on the consequences and echoes of

    Abstract: With the economic and political rise of East Asia in the second half of the twentieth century, many Western countries have re-evaluated their links to their Eastern counterparts. Thus, in recent years, Asian German Studies has emerged as a promising branch within interdisciplinary German Studies. This collection of essays examines German-language cultural production pertaining to modern China and Japan, and explicitly challenges orientalist notions by proposing a conception of East and West not as opposites, but as complementary elements of global culture, thereby urging a move beyond nationa

    When Whites Riot : Writing Race and Violence in American and South African Cultures (2014)

    DDC: 305.8009
    Keywords: Mass media and race relations - South Africa ; Electronic books ; Electronic books ; Electronic books
    Abstract: In a bold work that cuts across racial, ethnic, cultural, and national boundaries, Sheila Smith McKoy reveals how race colors the idea of violence in the United States and in South Africa--two countries inevitably and inextricably linked by the central role of skin color in personal and national identity. Although race riots are usually seen as black events in both the United States and South Africa, they have played a significant role in shaping the concept of whiteness and white power in both nations. This emerges clearly from Smith McKoy's examination of four riots that demonstrate the relationship between the two nations and the apartheid practices that have historically defined them: North Carolina's Wilmington Race Riot of 1898; the Soweto Uprising of 1976; the Los Angeles Rebellion in 1992; and the pre-election riot in Mmabatho, Bhoputhatswana in 1994. Pursuing these events through narratives, media reports, and film, Smith McKoy shows how white racial violence has been disguised by race riots in the political and power structures of both the United States and South Africa. The first transnational study to probe the abiding inclination to "blacken" riots, When Whites Riot unravels the connection between racial violence--both the white and the "raced"--in the United States and South Africa, as well as the social dynamics that this connection sustains.

    Abstract: Honour, Violence and Emotions in History is the first book to draw on emerging cross-disciplinary scholarship on the study of emotions to analyse the history of honour and violence across a broad range of cultures and regions. Written by leading cultural and social historians from around the world, the book considers how emotions - particularly shame, anger, disgust, jealousy, despair and fear - have been provoked and expressed through culturally-embedded and historically specific understandings of honour. The collection explores a range of contexts, from 17th-century China to 18th-century Sou

    Abstract: Building on Fossungu�s earlier works, and essentially providing Africa with original, critical, and multi-level analyses of the trio of globalization, democracy, and national determination, this book theorizes that African states have to unite in order to have any impact in the global economy.

    Abstract: Themenzentrierte Interaktion (TZI) wurde von Ruth C. Cohn entwickelt und hat sich in vierzig Jahren von einem pädagogisch-therapeutischen Modell zur Persönlichkeitsentwicklung und zur Leitung von Gruppen zu einem umfassenden Konzept weiterentwickelt. Mit TZI können Lern- und Arbeitsprozesse von Menschen, Gruppen, Teams und Organisationen reflektiert, gesteuert und geleitet werden. Prozesse der Work-Life-Balance lassen sich durch TZI gestalten und Empowerment fördern. Heute wird TZI sehr erfolgreich in der Erwachsenenbildung, Schule, Wirtschaft, Beratung, Theologie und Kirche, Führungskräfteent

    Abstract: Homosexuality - or hungochani as it is known in Zimbabwe - has been denounced by many politicians and church leaders as an example of how Western decadence has corrupted African traditions. However, a bold new gay rights movement has emerged in several of the countries of the region since the 1980s, offering an exciting new dimension in the broad struggle for human rights and democracy unfolding on the continent.

    Abstract: This book provides critical insights into the many, often overlooked, challenges and societal issues that face contemporary black men, focusing in particular on the ways in which governing societal expectations result in internal and external constraints on black male identity formation, sexuality and black 'masculine' expression. Presenting new interview and auto-ethnographic data, and drawing on an array of theoretical approaches methodologies, Hyper Sexual, Hyper Masculine? explores the formation of gendered and sexual identity in the lives of black men, shedding light on the manner in which these are affected by class and social structure. It examines the intersecting oppressions of race, gender and class, while acknowledging and discussing the extent to which black men's social lives differ as a result of their varying degrees of cumulative disadvantage. A wide-ranging and empirically grounded exploration of the intersecting roles of race, masculinity, and sexuality on the lives of black men, this volume will appeal to scholars across the social sciences with interests in race and ethnicity, gender and sexuality, social stratification and intersectionality

    Keywords: Netherlands -- Politics and government ; Public administration -- Netherlands ; Netherlands ; Politics and government ; Public administration ; Netherlands ; Electronic books
    Abstract: Integration politics in the Netherlands has changed dramatically between 1990 and 2005. Whereas ethnic and religious differences were hitherto pacified through accommodation, a new and increasingly powerful current in Dutch politicsproblematizes the presence of minorities.This development represents a challenge to sociologists and political scientists: how to map and explain drastic changes?Arguing that extant approaches are better at explaining continuity than change, this book develops a distinct approach to the study of dynamic power relations to understand drastic transformations in the national debate as well as urban governance

    Abstract: This is the first major re-assessment of Ivan the Terrible to be published in the West in the post-Soviet period. It breaks away from older stereotypes of the tsar - whether as 'crazed tyrant' and 'evil genius', on the one hand, or as a 'great and wise statesman', on the other - to provide a more balanced picture. It examines the ways in which Ivan's policies contributed to the creation of Russia's distinctive system of unlimited monarchical rule. Ivan is best remembered for his reign of terror, the book pays due attention to the horrors of his executions, tortures and repressions, especially in the period of the oprichnina (1565-72), when he mysteriously divided his realm into two parts, one of which was under the direct control of the tsar and his oprichniki (bodyguard). This work argues that the often gruesome forms assumed by the terror reflected not only Ivan's personal cruelty and sadism, but also his religious views about the divinely ordained right of the tsar to punish his treasonous subjects, just as sinners were punished in Hell. Primarily chronological in its organisation, the book focuses on three main aspects of Ivan's power: the territorial expansion of the state, the mythology, rituals and symbols of monarchy; and the development of the autocratic system of rule.

    Abstract: Rent Boys paints a vivid picture of the men who service men in an urban Western context. Using interviews with forty young male sex workers, Michel Dorais analyses their differences in terms of self-esteem, control over their lives, relations to their clients, and risk of HIV infection. He insightfully and usefully breaks down male sex workers into four different types: outcasts whose drug addiction and prostitution go hand-in-hand; part-timers for whom prostitution is an occasional means to make money; insiders for whom the world of prostitution has become a family ; and liberationists whose prostitution helps them actualize themselves. Dorais analyses the risks these young men are subject to and presents useful suggestions for professionals wanting to help them.

    Abstract: The movement of nation building in Islamic societies away from the secular or Pan-Arab models of the early twentieth century toward a variety of nationalisms was accompanied by growing antagonism between the Muslim majority and ethnic or religious minorities. The papers in Nationalism and Minority Identities in Islamic Societies offer a comparative analysis of how these minorities developed their own distinctive identities within the modern Islamic nation-state.

    Abstract: The introduction by Jeffrey Reitz focuses on the evolution of Breton's distinctive institutional framework, which both extends and in some ways alters John Porter's classic analysis in The Vertical Mosaic. Reitz shows how Breton's original concept of "institutional completeness" has been extended to provide a comprehensive framework for the institutional analysis of inter-ethnic relations, creating a unified theoretical structure that has reshaped the study of inter-ethnic relations in Canada and points toward a future research agenda.

    Abstract: In the fall of 1831, Mrs McIndoe and her children left Scotland to join her husband, William, a labourer on the Rideau Canal. When they arrived they discovered that William had already moved on, forcing Mrs McIndoe to appeal to the public to help reunite her family. As Elizabeth Jane Errington illustrates, the nineteenth-century world of emigration was hazardous.

    Abstract: The French revolts of May 1968, the largest general strike in twentieth-century Europe, were among the most famous and colourful episodes of the twentieth century. Julian Bourg argues that during the subsequent decade the revolts led to a remarkable paradigm shift in French thought - the concern for revolution in the 1960s was transformed into a fascination with ethics.

    Abstract: In the aftermath of the Great War, a wave of tourists and pilgrims visited the battlefields, cemeteries and memorials of the war.
