    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: 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: 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: Soziologische Theorie
    Abstract: Die Vielfalt soziologischer Zugriffe auf die moderne Gesellschaft lässt sich in die drei Stränge der ungleichheits-, der differenzierungs- und der kulturtheoretischen Denktradition bündeln. Alle drei Stränge setzen sich aus einer Pluralität von Perspektiven zusammen, und es gibt vielfältige Verbindungen zwischen ihnen - bis hin zu Versuchen, zwei oder sogar drei Stränge in theoretischen Synthesen zusammenzuführen. Dieses Bild, das die soziologische Gesellschaftstheorie seit den Klassikern bis heute bietet, wird in der Einführung systematisch dargestellt und kommentiert. Ein besonderer Akzent wird dabei darauf gelegt, wie die verschiedenen Perspektiven zum Verständnis heutiger gesellschaftlicher Problemlagen beitragen und welche zeitdiagnostischen Horizonte sie eröffnen.   Rezension »Dem Buch gelingt ein schwieriger Spagat: Es ist Überblick und Debatte zugleich. Auf knapp 200 Seiten bündelt es aktuelle Diskussionen soziologischer Gesellschaftstheorien und gibt zudem Denkanstöße für eine Weiterentwicklung der Gesellschaftsforschung.« Yvonne Niekrenz, www.socialnet.de, 27.01.2014 »Schimank belässt es nicht bei einer deskriptiven Darstellung der einzelnen z.T. widerstreitenden Theorien(-familien), sondern macht deutlich, dass die genannten Ansätze v.a. im Austausch und im Verbund das Rüstzeug zur theoretischen Beschreibung und Analyse der modernen kapitalistischen Gesellschaften liefern können.« Mario Kowalak, ekz bibliotheksservice, 42 (2013).

    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: 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 tradierten Rollen von Arbeitnehmenden und Arbeitgebenden verlieren zunehmend an Kontur. Jeder Einzelne ist seines Glückes Schmied und spielt, so scheint es, virtuos auf der Klaviatur des Selbstmanagements. Zwischen der eigenverantworteten Freiheit, dem enormen Maß an Leistungsverdichtung und biografischen Unsicherheiten entstehen neue Arbeitsformen - aber auch neue Phänomene der Belastung. Wie gehen die Menschen damit um und bleiben gesund und leistungsfähig? Wie kann man diesem Wandel aus gesellschaftlicher Sicht begegnen? Und wie reagieren wir individuell auf diese Herausforderungen? Die Beiträge des Bandes geben Antworten.   The traditional roles of employees and employers increasingly lose clear definition. Every individual forges his own destiny and performs, it seems, with virtuosity on the keyboard of self-management. Between the autonomous freedom, an enormous degree of performance concentration and biographical uncertainties, new forms of work emerge - but also new phenomena of stress. How do people deal with this while staying healthy and fit? How can one handle this change from a societal point of view? And how we react to these challenges as individuals? The contributions to this volume provide answers.   Rezension »Sowohl für den Einsteiger ins Thema Wandel der Erwerbsarbeit - Wandel der Lebensbedingungen, als auch denjenigen, der tiefer mit der Materie vertraut ist, bietet diese Tagungsdokumentation wertvolle Impulse zum weiterlesen, -recherchieren und -forschen. Der Versuch einen Bogen von den allgemeinen Grundlagen hin zu speziellen - vom Wandel der Erwerbstätigkeit geprägten - Gesellschaftsfeldern zu spannen, ist gelungen.« Maria Wolf, www.socialnet.de, 04.06.2013.

    Abstract: "We are our bodies", "we have our bodies", "we make our bodies". This "three-headed" axiom has made the body the "parasite" of modern culture.The individual that is fit for modernity was, and certainly still is, expected and encouraged to embrace its corporeal existence in order to find an answer to one of the most frequently asked questions in the modern Western world: "Who am I?" For those who live in Western societies, with a history of individualism, the temptation is to look inside oneself, to examine one's thoughts and feelings, as if self-identity is a treasure locked inside.The desire to change the skin one inhabits, to cite Almodòvar, has become "territorialized" in on-screen media, digital sites and social networks, shuffling the cards as if in an attempt to dance on the ruins of passing time. Everything is at play, everything is art. Madonna is like Michelangelo. Comic strips are like eight hundred page novels by Tolstoy. What is up for discussion is the advanced transformation of persons into spectators. The multiplication of screens creates a "visual party". The definition of the boundaries between the social sensorium and today's advanced technologies is the fundamental, and as yet unsolved, methodological problem arising from the contemporary "spatial turn" that is coming to maturity thanks to the re-orientation of the classical digital paradigm."Reclaiming the social throughout embodied practices" (Greenwood, 1994) is basically the ultimate objective of this book. The thinking, feeling and acting body will figure as prominently as the mind, cognition, and rationality in combining the framework of the research and the methodology underpinning its development. The body is, indeed, the origin of humans' most individual experiences and actions, since it is the point of application of the tuning and calibration of the senses and the...
    Abstract: general training of social skills. The notion of "body in action in context" is, consequently, the methodological proposal that Beyond the Skin: The Boundaries between Bodies and Technologies in an Unequal World offers to sociology, in order to surpass the "new alliance" between human senses and the new media, an alliance staged by bodies moving faster than thought across the maps of contemporary mobile spaces.

    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: 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: Trotz ihrer immensen Relevanz in der (verwaltungsreformierenden) Praxis der Landesgesetzgeber führt die Kommunalisierung von Staatsaufgaben in rechtssystematischer wie rechtsdogmatischer Hinsicht bislang ein Schattendasein. Rechtswissenschaftliche Abhandlungen in Rechtsprechung und Schrifttum beschränken sich im Wesentlichen auf die - oftmals streitigen - Aspekte der finanziellen Entschädigung für die neue kommunale Aufgabenträgerschaft (Konnexität) sowie des Personalübergangs und damit bewirkter Beeinträchtigungen der Personal- und Organisationshoheit. Die Fragen nach den Wesenszügen und Unterschieden von Kommunalisierungen, ihren Auswirkungen auf das Verständnis der kommunalen Selbstverwaltung sowie den durch sie bewirkten Veränderungen - kommunalintern zwischen den Organen, kommunalextern im Land-Kommunen-Beziehungsgeflecht - bleiben damit in der Regel unbeantwortet. Diese Lücke schließt die Untersuchung. Dabei richtet sie sich gleichermaßen an die Ministerialverwaltungen, die Kommunalisierungen initiieren, die gestaltenden Landesgesetzgeber sowie an all diejenigen, die sich rechtsprechend und/oder wissenschaftlich mit den Garantien kommunaler Selbstverwaltung beschäftigen. Dazu entfaltet und verortet das in fünf Kapitel gegliederte Werk die Kommunalisierung begrifflich und staatsorganisatorisch, systematisiert und analysiert ihre verschiedenen Formen, arbeitet verfassungsrechtliche Maßstäbe heraus und befasst sich mit den Fragen, die sich nach der Umsetzung stellen. Die Darstellungen rücken die Ebene der Kreise als Adressaten von Kommunalisierungen in den Betrachtungsfokus und liefern, sofern die Systemanalyse Anlass dazu bietet, neue dogmatische wie praktische Lösungsansätze - dies nicht abstrakt, sondern stets unter Rezeption der von den Landesgesetzgebern verfolgten »Kommunalisierungsidee«.   Reihe Schriften zum deutschen und europäischen...

    Abstract: Quick and easy access is the goal of the new 11th edition of The American Marketplace: Demographics and Spending Patterns. Designed for convenience, The American Marketplace draws on scores of government sources to give you a population profile of the United States in one handy volume. Its hundreds of tables are organized into 11 chapters covering attitudes, education, health, housing, income, labor force, living arrangements, population, spending, time use, and wealth. The American Marketplace reveals the latest demographic trends and tells the American story. It examines changing lifestyles in rich detail, from growing racial and ethnic diversity to declining homeownership, from disappearing nuclear families to recovery in household spending, from another baby bust to new attitudes toward gay marriage. New to this edition of The American Marketplace are 2012 population estimates for the nation, states, and metropolitan areas, revealing new patterns of growth. The Attitudes chapter has data from the 2012 General Social Survey. The Income chapter, with 2012 income statistics from the 2013 Current Population Survey, reveals the struggle to stay afloat. The American Marketplace is a reference tool that will help you cut through the clutter and track the trends.

    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: 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: The idea of the imagination is as evocative as it is elusive. Not only does the imagination allow us to project ourselves beyond our own immediate space and time, it also allows us to envision the future, as individuals and as collectives. The radical imagination, then, is that spark of difference, desire and discontent that can be fanned into the flames of social change. Yet what precisely is the imagination and what might make it 'radical'? How can it be fostered and cultivated? How can it be studied and what are the possibilities and risks of doing so? This book seeks to answer these questions at a crucial time. As we enter into a new cycle of struggles marked by a worldwide crisis of social reproduction, scholar-activists Max Haiven and Alex Khasnabish explore the processes and possibilities for cultivating the radical imagination in dark times. A lively and crucial intervention in radical politics, social research and social change, and the collective visions and cultures that inspire them.

    Abstract: This book examines the problem of transparency in the news media in China through analysis of the political and market control jointly imposed by the party-state and the media. It argues that the gap between rhetoric and reality reveals the disjuncture of the party-state and the media from their political representation.

    Abstract: Among numerous ancient Western tropes about gender and procreation, "the seed and the soil" is arguably the oldest, most potent, and most invisible in its apparent naturalness. In Gender Vendors: Sex and Lies from Abraham to Freud, Al Jones de-naturalizes the proto-theory of "seed-and-soil" procreation and deconstructs its contemporary legacy.

    Series Statement: Regional Economic Outlook
    DDC: 303.409584
    Abstract: This issue discusses economic developments in the Middle East, North Africa, Afghanistan, and Pakistan (MENAP), which continue to reflect the diversity of conditions prevailing across the region. Most high-income oil exporters, primarily in the GCC, continue to record steady growth and solid economic and financial fundamentals, albeit with medium-term challenges that need to be addressed. In contrast, other countries-Iraq, Libya, and Syria-are mired in conflicts with not only humanitarian but also economic consequences. And yet other countries, mostly oil importers, are making continued but uneven progress in advancing their economic agendas, often in tandem with political transitions and amidst difficult social conditions. In most of these countries, without extensive economic and structural reforms, economic prospects for the medium term remain insufficient to reduce high unemployment and improve living standards.

    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: Social media allows you to scale up a core librarian practice-connecting your community to information and learning--across geographic boundaries, 24/7. Addressing "curation" as the term is used colloquially, this issue of Library Technology Reports draws from 17 in-depth interviews to show how libraries are using social media to collect, organize, share, and interpret-in short, how to tell a digital story to a specific audience. Additionally the authors use data, collected through an online survey that encompassed all library types, to offer a snapshot of this important "collecting-connecting-curating-contributing" practice. Also included is an annotated directory covering 66 tools for social media curation, organized by category with links to the websites.

    Abstract: As John Bellamy Foster writes in his foreword to the present book, "István Mészáros is one of the greatest philosophers that the historical materialist tradition has yet produced. His work stands practically alone today in the depth of its analysis of Marx's theory of alienation, the structural crisis of capital, the demise of Soviet-style post-revolutionary societies, and the necessary conditions of the transition to socialism. His dialectical inquiry into social structure and forms of consciousness-a systematic critique of the prevailing forms of thought-is unequaled in our time." Mészáros is the author of magisterial works like Beyond Capital and Social Structures of Forms of Consciousness, but his work can seem daunting to those unacquainted with his thought. Here, for the first time, is a concise and accessible overview of Mészáros's ideas, designed by the author himself and covering the broad scope of his work, from the shortcomings of bourgeois economics to the degeneration of the capital system to the transition to socialism.

    Abstract: Nur wenn Kinder krabbeln, greifen und laufen, lernen sie ihre Umwelt optimal kennen - und sich selbst. Ausreichende Bewegung ist daher bereits im Babyalter wichtig: Sie sorgt für eine bessere Haltung, eine kräftige Muskulatur, gute Koordination, einen ausgebildeten Intellekt und ein gesundes Selbstbewusstsein. Die zahlreiche Anregungen und Bewegungsspiele in diesem Ratgeber sind kinderleicht im Alltag umzusetzen. Durch die Einteilung nach Entwicklungsstufen, Alter und Situationen ist es einfach, das passende Spiel zu finden - ob auf der Wickelkommode, dem Fußboden oder an der frischen Luft. Biographische InformationenUlla Nedebock hat über viele Jahre Mutter-Kind-Kurse geleitet. Sie ist überzeugt, dass eine frühe Förderung die Entwicklung des Kindes positiv beeinflusst. Zusammen mit weiteren Experten entwickelte sie für dieses Buch einalltagstaugliches Konzept für alle Eltern, die die Entwicklung ihrer Kinder positiv unterstützen möchten. Ulla Nedebock arbeitet außerdem für Kinderbuchverlage, schreibt Kinderbücher und führt Buchprojekte in Grundschulendurch. Sie ist Mutter von drei Töchtern.

    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...

    Abstract: Studierende der Soziologie und Leser_innen, die allgemein an geistes- und sozialwissenschaftlicher Theoriebildung interessiert sind, finden mit diesem Buch eine Orientierung im nahezu unübersichtlichen Gelände der soziologischen Theorien und Sinnbegriffe. In vergleichender Übersicht stellt die Einführung zentrale Sinnbegriffe vor, die als Basiskategorien in verschiedenen soziologischen Theorien verwendet werden. Die Abhängigkeit der Konstruktion des soziologischen Gegenstandsbereichs von theoretischen Grundannahmen wird auf diese Weise beobachtbar. Es zeigt sich: Nicht zuletzt die Wahl des Sinnbegriffs ist entscheidend für die Möglichkeiten soziologischen Fragens und methodischen Beobachtens. Das Buch eignet sich in hervorragender Weise dazu, Studium und Lehre der Soziologie, insbesondere in den einführenden Modulen zur soziologischen Theorie, strukturierend zu begleiten.

    Abstract: Das Thema »soziale Innovationen« hat in den letzten 20 Jahren in westlichen Gesellschaften zwar immer größere Aufmerksamkeit erfahren, ist dabei aber sowohl begrifflich und konzeptionell als auch inhaltlich äußerst unscharf geblieben. Angesichts der wachsenden Bedeutung sozialer Innovationen ist eine konzeptionelle Weiterentwicklung des theoretischen Ansatzes von großer Bedeutung. Dieser Band diskutiert die Frage, was eine Innovation zur sozialen Innovation macht. Die Autoren gehen theoretischen Konzepten, empirischen Forschungsfeldern und beobachtbaren Trends nach und arbeiten die zentralen Dimensionen eines sozialwissenschaftlichen Konzepts sozialer Innovation heraus.   Rezension Besprochen in: WSI Mitteilungen, 3 (2011), Hellmuth Lange Forschungsjournal Soziale Bewegungen, 2 (2014), Gorgi Krlev/Thomas Scheuerle.

    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.

    Abstract: Wer die moderne Gesellschaft komplexitätsangemessen auf den Begriff bringen möchte, darf über den Sport nicht schweigen! Karl-Heinrich Bette setzt diese Forderung konsequent und innovativ in die Tat um und analysiert ausgewählte Phänomene wie die Begeisterung des Sportpublikums, das Sportheldentum, den Abenteuer- und Risikosport sowie das Doping im Spitzensport vor dem Hintergrund gesellschaftlicher Modernisierungsprozesse. Außerdem wird mit der Sportsoziologie jene Disziplin vorgestellt und durchleuchtet, die in der modernen Gesellschaft für eine amoralische, fremde und inkongruente Beobachtung des Sports ausdifferenziert wurde.   Rezension »Der Autor [liefert] eine Reihe von scharfsinnigen und lehrreichen Analysen über den Zustand des modernen Sports.« Dieter Reicher, Soziologische Revue, 37 (2014) Besprochen in: BISp, 5 (2011) www.lehrerbibliothek.de, 5 (2011), Dieter Bach.

    Abstract: Gesundheit als soziales Produkt: Moderne prädiktive Brustkrebsgentests liefern heute gesundheitsrelevantes Wissen mit eindeutiger Familienanbindung. Britta Pelters zeichnet erstmalig nach, wie Gesundheit im Unbestimmten des Risikodiskurses sowohl familial sozialisiert als auch individuell normiert wird. Ausgehend von dieser Praxis des »doing health« entwickelt sie einen konstruktivistischen, subjektiv-relationalen Gesundheitsbegriff, der der healthistisch fetischisierten Debatte um Gesundheit gerecht wird. Gleichzeitig wird mit dem Konzept der Individualnorm ein praktischer Bezugspunkt für die Arbeit im Feld der Gesundheitsförderung und Prävention angeboten.

    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).

    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...

    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: The globalization movement is shaped by economic, political, technological, and cultural forces that transform human collectivities. Instability and related concomitant issues such as disease, energy security, and terrorism challenge the reconstructive role of internal and external factors in foreign policy decision-making. This book urges nations to implement effective governance models.

    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.

    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.

    Series Statement: Chinese Festival Culture Series
    DDC: 394.26951
    Abstract: In China, 'The Festival of February the Second' literally means the day of dragon's head-raising and, on this day, Chinese people pray for favorable weather and a bumper harvest for the year. This book - printed in an English-Chinese bilingual text - introduces the origin, development, implied meanings, and abundant features of this festival. As one of many traditional Chinese festivals, 'The Festival of February the Second' is less known outside China. Even many locals in China have forgotten this important festival, which used to be popular in rural areas. Originating from the countryside, it is deeply rooted in the agricultural era. Therefore, it has many aspects that are different to other festivals in China. The book offers an insight into a key part of China's festival heritage. (Series: Chinese Festival Culture) [Subject: Anthropology, Chinese Studies, Asian Studies, Cultural Studies].

    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.

    Abstract: Während im Leitmedium Fernsehen politische Themen zunehmend als »cultural fast food« (Pierre Bourdieu) aufbereitet werden, entstehen im Internet transnationale (Gegen-)Öffentlichkeiten, die die neoliberale Ordnung in der ersten Dekade des 21. Jahrhunderts in Frage stellen und für eine Demokratisierung der Lebensverhältnisse eintreten. Das Buch untersucht, wie diese transnationalen zivilgesellschaftlichen Netzwerke entstehen und welches kommunikative Potenzial sie entfalten können. Eine wichtige Frage ist dabei, ob sich kosmopolitische Sichtweisen und Praktiken herausbilden, die am Dialog orientiert sind und ausgehend vom transnationalen Charakter gesellschaftlicher Entwicklungen nach sozialen und kulturellen Veränderungen streben. Am Beispiel unterschiedlicher virtueller Netzwerke zu Themen wie Menschenrechte oder ökologische Fragen werden Formen des globalen Aktivismus analysiert und ihre Bedeutung für eine Revitalisierung der Demokratie diskutiert. »Comprehensive and insightful, Winter's book contributes significantly to our understanding of new media and technologies and their use in progressive politics.« (Douglas Kellner, Professor an der University of California, Los Angeles, ist Autor u.a. von »Media Culture«, 1995, und »Cinema Wars«, 2010.)   Rezension »Rainer Winter hat eine sehr positive, politische Perspektive auf das Netz.
