    Abstract: Openness implies bottom-up empowerment and top-down transparency. The Paradox of Openness analyses the tensions encountered when openness is applied to the quest for democracy and markets, freedom and truth, compliance and transparency, and consensus and dissent in progressive Nordic societies.

    Abstract: This book considers the question: to what extent does it make sense to qualify technical artefacts as moral entities? The authors' contributions trace recent proposals and topics including instrumental and non-instrumental values of artefacts, agency and artefactual agency, values in and around technologies, and the moral significance of technology. The editors' introduction explains that as 'agents' rather than simply passive instruments, technical artefacts may actively influence their users, changing the way they perceive the world, the way they act in the world and the way they interact with each other. This volume features the work of various experts from around the world, representing a variety of positions on the topic. Contributions explore the contested discourse on agency in humans and artefacts, defend the Value Neutrality Thesis by arguing that technological artefacts do not contain, have or exhibit values, or argue that moral agency involves both human and non-human elements.The book also investigates technological fields that are subject to negative moral valuations due to the harmful effects of some of their products. It includes an analysis of some difficulties arising in Artificial Intelligence and an exploration of values in Chemistry and in Engineering. The Moral Status of Technical Artefacts is an advanced exploration of the various dimensions of the relations between technology and morality.

    Abstract: Natur ist Gegenbegriff von Gesellschaft, von Kultur, vom Sozialen, kurz: sie ist alles, was der Mensch nicht erschaffen hat. Natur scheint damit auch all das zu sein, was nicht zum Untersuchungsbereich der Soziologie gehört. Dieses Buch interpretiert die Entwicklung der Soziologie als Auseinandersetzung mit ihrem vermeintlichen Gegenpol Natur. Hierzu gehören immer wieder aufflammende Debatten um die menschliche Natur, Konzepte von Gesellschaft als Naturprozess oder Diskussionen über die Rückwirkungen der äußeren Natur auf die Gesellschaft. Der auf den Einsatz in der Lehre zugeschnittene Einführungsband verweist damit auf die Zentralität des Gesellschafts-Natur-Verhältnisses für die soziologische Begriffs- und Theoriebildung. Rezension »Insgesamt ist das Buch von Matthias Groß eine kurze, gut informierte wissenschaftshistorische [...] Studie zum Verhältnis von Soziologie, Biologie und Geografie, das vor allem die 'Grenzstreitigkeiten' zum Ende des 19. Jahrhunderts in Frankreich und zu Beginn des 20. Jahrhunderts in den USA [...] in den Blick nimmt. Vor allem die amerikanische Debatte ist sehr gut dargestellt und auch für die Soziologen mit Gewinn zu lesen, die sich für die Frühgeschichte der Soziologie in Chicago interessieren.« Jo Reichertz, Soziologische Revue, 31 (2008) Besprochen in: Internationales Jahrbuch für Philosophische Anthropologie, 2 (2009), Nico Lüdtke Berliner Debatte Initial, 3 (2010).

    Abstract: Zu den zentralen Merkmalen der Hochmoderne zählte ein von technischen Visionen und Utopien befeuertes szientistisches Fortschrittsversprechen. Anhand historischer Fallstudien zu zeitgenössischen Technikdiskursen und den dabei vorgenommenen Bedeutungszuschreibungen untersuchen die Beiträge in diesem Band, welche Rolle technische Visionen und Utopien bei der Entstehung und für das robuste Beharrungsvermögen des omnipräsenten Technikoptimismus spiel(t)en. Neben Energie- und Mobilitätsvisionen werden spezifisch sozialistische Technikutopien sowie Medien der Popularisierung in den Blick genommen. Rezension »Was den Band auszeichnet, ist [...] die bisherige Debatte zur Hochmoderne um die Bedeutung technisch basierter Zukunftsvorstellungen erweitert zu haben. Dies ist von hoher Relevanz, denn es handelt sich zweifellos um eine technische (Hoch-)Moderne, ein Aspekt, der in den geschichtswissenschaftlichen Debatten mehr Beachtung verdienen würde.« Martina Heßler, H-Soz-u-Kult, 07.07.2014 Reihe 1800 | 2000.

    Abstract: Learning to Die in London, 1380-1540 argues that the educated awareness of death and mortality was a vital aspect of the city's civic culture, critical not only to the shaping of single lives and the management of households but also to practices of cultural memory, building of institutions, and good government of the city itself.

    Abstract: This descriptive and comprehensive study on the discursive struggle over interpersonal relations in online message boards is located at the fascinating interface of pragmatics and computer-mediated discourse - a research area which has so far not attracted much scientific interest. It sets out to shed light on the question how interpersonal relations are established, managed and negotiated in online message boards by giving a valid overview of the entire panoply of interpersonal relations (and their interrelations), including both positively and negatively marked behavior. With the first part of the book providing an in-depth discussion and refinement of the pivotal theoretical positions of both fields of research, students as well as professionals are (re-)acquainted with the subject at hand. Thus supplying a framework for the ensuing case study, the empirical part displays the results of the analysis of 50 threads (ca. 300,000 words) of a popular British message board.

    Abstract: Was ist eigentlich gemeint mit Kultur? Es liegt im Interesse der Kulturphilosophie, den Kulturbegriff zu klären und ihn als analytische Kategorie zu profilieren. Um den Begriff tragfähig definieren zu können, untersucht dieser Band den inneren Zusammenhang der unterschiedlichen Aspekte der Kulturalität des Menschen. Die Lebenswelt und die Lebensweisen werden dabei als gleichermaßen zur Kulturalität des Menschen gehörig und in ihrer wechselseitigen Abhängigkeit begriffen. Dies schafft die Grundlage für ein weites und gleichermaßen tiefes Verständnis des Menschen als kulturellem Wesen, das im disziplinübergreifenden Dialog weiter ausgebaut wird

Die Doppeldeutigkeit dieser praxistheoretischen Frage ist beabsichtigt: Mit dem Subjekt wird etwas getan - aber es wird auch selbst aktiv. Indem es eine kulturelle Subjektform verkörpert, wird es nicht nur als zurechnungsfähiger Akteur anerkennbar, sondern beeinflusst auch seine Umgebung. Mit dem Begriffspaar »Selbst-Bildung« und »Subjektivierung« gerät somit zugleich das spannungsvolle Ineinander von Doing Subject und Doing Culture in den Blick. Die geistes- und gesellschaftswissenschaftlichen Beiträge dieses Bands eint das Anliegen, kulturelle Spielräume der Subjektivierung unabhängig von gängigen historischen Epocheneinteilungen auszuloten

    Abstract: Dispossession describes the condition of those who have lost land, citizenship, property, and a broader belonging to the world. This thought-provoking book seeks to elaborate our understanding of dispossession outside of the conventional logic of possession, a hallmark of capitalism, liberalism, and humanism. Can dispossession simultaneously characterize political responses and opposition to the disenfranchisement associated with unjust dispossession of land, economic and political power, and basic conditions for living? In the context of neoliberal expropriation of

    Abstract: One hundred years after the publication of the great sociological treatise, The Elementary Forms of Religious Life, this new volume shows how aptly Durkheim¹s theories still resonate with the study of contemporary and historical religious societies. The volume applies the Durkheimian model to multiple cases, probing its resilience, wondering where it might be tweaked, and asking which aspects have best stood the test of time. A dialogue between theory and ethnography, this book shows how Durkheimian sociology has become a mainstay of social thought and theory, pointing to multiple ways in whi

Reviewing hate speech regulations, anti-pornography arguments, and recent controversies about gay self-declaration in the military, Judith Butler asks whether and how language acts in each of these cultural sites

Der Band greift erstmals unbekannte Rezeptionslinien Durkheims auf und zeigt ihn so in seiner Komplexität und Aktualität: als Vorreiter einer transdisziplinären Sozialwissenschaft, als scharfsinnigen Theoretiker, als Denker des Materiellen und des Symbolischen. Neben ihm kommen auch seine Kollegen, Erben und zeitgenössischen Kritiker in den Blick. Dabei wird deutlich, dass Durkheims Werk nicht nur die Soziologie prägte, sondern auch der Ethnologie und der Philosophie grundlegende Impulse gab.

    Abstract: Sociolinguistics is the study of the interaction between language and society. In this classic introductory work, Janet Holmes examines the role of language in a variety of social contexts, considering both how language works and how it can be used to signal and interpret various aspects of social identity. Written with Holmes' customary enthusiasm, the book is divided into three sections which explain basic sociolinguistic concepts in the light of classic approaches as well as introducing more recent research.This fourth edition has been revised and updated throughout using key concepts and e

    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

    Abstract: Racial and ethnic categories have appeared in recent scientific work in novel ways and in relation to a variety of disciplines: medicine, forensics, population genetics and also developments in popular genealogy. Once again, biology is foregrounded in the discussion of human identity. Of particular importance is the preoccupation with origins and personal discovery and the increasing use of racial and ethnic categories in social policy. This new genetic knowledge, expressed in technology and practice, has the potential to disrupt how race and ethnicity are debated, managed and lived. The contributors include medical researchers, anthropologists, historians of science and sociologists of race relations; together, they explore the new and challenging landscape where biology becomes the stuff of identity

    Abstract: Biographical note: Dr. Leander Scholz ist Wissenschaftlicher Mitarbeiter am Internationalen Kolleg für Kulturtechnikforschung und Medienphilosophie (IKKM) der Bauhaus-Universität Weimar.
    Abstract: Spätestens seit der Lehre vom Naturzustand, die Thomas Hobbes auf so folgenreiche Weise ausgearbeitet hat, steht die Todesproblematik im Zentrum der politischen Philosophie. Denn unter der Bedingung einer geringeren Eindämmung durch Jenseitsfiktionen erscheint die Absolutheit des Todes nicht nur als eine angstbesetzte Bedrohung, sondern zugleich auch als das, was die politische Ordnung aufrecht erhält. Mit der Fundierung der Gemeinschaft in einer Todesdrohung, die alle angeht, taucht jedoch zugleich eine neue Problematik auf: die Zersetzung der Gemeinschaft, der wiederum allein durch den Horizont einer kollektiven Todesdrohung entgegengewirkt werden kann. Ausgehend von dieser Problematik, zeichnet die Studie von Leander Scholz am Leitfaden politischer Thanatologien den historischen Umbau von einer politischen Theologie zur politischen Ökonomie nach, sowie die Umformung der politischen Ökonomie zu einer politischen Ökologie. Hierbei steht die Formierung eines Lebenswillens im Vordergrund, der nicht mehr bereit ist, die Verinnerlichung der Todesdrohung als Horizont seiner Selbstbehauptung anzuerkennen.

Die Humanwissenschaften müssen fundamentale Fragen angehen: Wie sieht ein Humanismus aus, der eigene Sichten und Erfahrungen Europas und Amerikas nicht vorschnell universalisiert? Wie können wir Globalität als Ganzes denken, ohne Einheit und Differenz gegeneinander auszuspielen? Braucht eine Weltgemeinschaft gemeinsame Werte, oder reichen Regeln für einen humanen Umgang? Wie kann der allgegenwärtige Ethnozentrismus zivilisiert werden? Wie lässt sich verhindern, dass »Kultur« in Ide

    Abstract: While certain aspects of Henri Lefebvre's writings have been examined extensively within the disciplines of geography, social theory, urban planning and cultural studies, there has been no comprehensive consideration of his work within legal studies. Henri Lefebvre: Spatial Politics, Everyday Life and the Right to the City provides the first serious analysis of the relevance and importance of this significant thinker for the study of law and state power. Introducing Lefebvre to a legal audience, this book identifies the central themes that run through his work, including his unorthodox, humani

    Abstract: Ausgehend von der Kritischen Patriarchatstheorie wird die Gabe als Paradigma und als zwischenmenschlicher Akt untersucht. Es handelt sich dabei um einen ersten Versuch, politische, oekonomische, kulturanthropologische sowie spirituelle Aspekte zu vereinen und das vielschichtige und bedeutende Phaenomen der Gabe transdisziplinaer zu beleuchten. Auf der Suche nach einer Politik, Kultur und Oekonomie der Gabe werden Forschungsergebnisse der Matriarchatsforschung sowie der Kritischen Patriarchatstheorie vereint, um erste Ansaetze einer neuen Theorie der Gabe vorzulegen, und diese im Kontrast zu de

    Abstract: When leaders and citizens in the United States articulate their core political beliefs, they often do so in terms of parenthood and family. But while the motives might be admirable, the results of such thinking are often corrosive to our democratic goals. In The Parent as Citizen , Brian Duff reveals how efforts to make the experience of parenthood inform citizenship contribute to the most persistent problems in modern democracy and democratic theory. Duff explains how influential theories of democratic citizenship rely on the metaphor of parenthood to help individuals rise to the challenges o

    Abstract: "One doesn't need to look far to find examples of contemporary locations of cultural opposition. Digital piracy, audio mashups, The Onion and Wikipedia are all examples of transgression in our current mediascape. And as digital age transgression becomes increasingly essential, it also becomes more difficult to define and protect. The contributions in this collection are organized into six sections that address the use of new technologies to alter existing cultural messages, the incorporation of technology and alternative media in transformation of everyday cultural practices and institutions, and the reuse and repurposing of technology to focus active political engagement and innovative social change. Bringing together a variety of scholars and case studies, Transgression 2.0 will be the first key resource for scholars and students interested in digital culture as a transformative intervention in the types, methods and significance of cultural politics."--Bloomsbury Publishing.

    Abstract: In recent years, evolutionary theorists have come to recognize that the reductionist, individualist, gene-centered approach to evolution cannot sufficiently account for the emergence of complex biological systems over time. Peter A. Corning has been at the forefront of a new generation of complexity theorists who have been working to reshape the foundations of evolutionary theory. Well known for his Synergism Hypothesis-a theory of complexity in evolution that assigns a key causal role to various forms of functional synergy-Corning puts this theory into a much broader framework in Holistic Darwinism, addressing many of the issues and concepts associated with the evolution of complex systems. Corning's paradigm embraces and integrates many related theoretical developments of recent years, from multilevel selection theory to niche construction theory, gene-culture coevolution theory, and theories of self-organization. Offering new approaches to thermodynamics, information theory, and economic analysis, Corning suggests how all of these domains can be brought firmly within what he characterizes as a post-neo-Darwinian evolutionary synthesis.

Chapters on fiction and poetry, art and photography, film and vaudeville, and music, theatre, and dance explore these developments, linking detailed commentary with focused case studies of influential texts and events. These range from Tarzan of the Apes to The Birth of a Nation, from the radical modernism of Gertrude Stein and the Provincetown

    Abstract: "This book brings together a team of leading theorists to address the question 'What is the right measure of justice?' Some contributors, following Amartya Sen and Martha Nussbaum, argue that we should focus on capabilities, or what people are able to do and to be. Others, following John Rawls, argue for focussing on social primary goods, the goods which society produces and which people can use. Still others see both views as incomplete and complementary to one another. Their essays evaluate the two approaches in the light of particular issues of social justice - education, health policy, disability, children, gender justice - and the volume concludes with an essay by Amartya Sen, who originated the capabilities approach"--Provided by publisher

    Abstract: While Aristotle's writings on biology are considered to be among his best, the comments he makes about females in these works are widely regarded as the nadir of his philosophical oeuvre. Among many claims, Aristotle is said to have declared that females contribute nothing substantial to generation; that they have fewer teeth than males; that they are less spirited than males; and that woman are analogous to eunuchs. In The Female in Aristotle's Biology, Robert Mayhew aims not to defend Aristotle's ideas about females but to defend Aristotle against the common charge that his writi

    Abstract: Is the United States a heterosexual regime? If it is, how may we understand the political position of those who cannot or will not align themselves with heterosexuality? With these provocative questions, Shane Phelan raises the issue of whether lesbians, gays, bisexuals, and transgendered people can be seen as citizens at all. Can citizenship be made queer? Or does citizenship require the exclusion of those who are regarded as queer to preserve the "equality" that it promises? In Sexual Strangers, Shane Phelan argues that, in the United States, queers are strangers -- not exactly the
