    Abstract: The discipline of anthropology is, at its best, characterized by turbulence, self-examination, and inventiveness. In recent decades, new thinking and practice within the field has certainly reflected this pattern, as shown for example by numerous fruitful ventures into the "politics and poetics" of anthropology. Surprisingly little attention, however, has been given to the simple insight that anthropology is composed of claims, whether tacit or explicit, about anthropos and about logos--and the myriad ways in which these two Greek nouns have been, might be, and should be, connected. Anthropos

    Abstract: Karl Polanyi's 1944 book, 'The Great Transformation', offered a radical critique of how the market system has affected society and humanity since the industrial revolution. This volume brings together contributions from scholars in economic anthropology, sociology and political economy to consider Polanyi's theories in light of circumstances today

    Abstract: This book reconsiders the dominant Western understandings of freedom through the lens of women's real-life experiences of domestic violence, welfare, and Islamic veiling. Nancy Hirschmann argues that the typical approach to freedom found in political philosophy severely reduces the concept's complexity, which is more fully revealed by taking such practical issues into account. Hirschmann begins by arguing that the dominant Western understanding of freedom does not provide a conceptual vocabulary for accurately characterizing women's experiences. Often, free choice is assumed when women are i

    Abstract: Anthropologists have been keenly aware of the tension between cultural relativism and absolute norms, and nowhere has this been more acute than with regards to moral values. Can we study the Other's morality without applying our own normative judgments? How do social anthropologists keep both the distance required by science and the empathy required for the analysis of lived experiences? The plurality of moralities has not received an explicit and focused attention until recently, when accelerated globalization often resulted in the collision of different value systems.

    Abstract: Collective Intentionality is a relatively new label for a basic social fact: the sharing of attitudes such as intentions, beliefs and emotions. This volume contributes to current research on collective intentionality by pursuing three aims. First, some of the main conceptual problems in the received literature are introduced, and a number of new insights into basic questions in the philosophy of collective intentionality are developed (part 1). Second, examples are given for the use of the analysis of collective intentionality in the theory and philosophy of the social sciences (part 2). Third, it is shown that this line of research opens up new perspectives on classical topics in the history of social philosophy and social science, and that, conversely, an inquiry into the history of ideas can lead to further refinement of our conceptual tools in the analysis of collective intentionality (part 3).

    Abstract: Members of the Frankfurt School have had an enormous effect on Western thought, beginning soon after Max Horkheimer became the director of the Institute for Social Research at the University of Frankfurt am Main, in 1930. Also known as the Horkheimer Circle, the group included such eminent intellectuals as Theodor Adorno, Herbert Marcuse, Erich Fromm, Leo Lowenthal, and Friedrich Pollock. Fleeing Nazi oppression, Horkheimer moved the Institute and many of its affiliated scholars to Columbia University in 1934, where it remained until 1950.Until now, the conventional portrayal of the Institute

    Abstract: Who are scientists? What kind of people are they? What capacities and virtues are thought to stand behind their considerable authority? They are experts-indeed, highly respected experts-authorized to describe and interpret the natural world and widely trusted to help transform knowledge into power and profit. But are they morally different from other people? The Scientific Life is historian Steven Shapin's story about who scientists are, who we think they are, and why our sensibilities about such things matter. Conventional wisdom has long held that scientists are neither better nor worse than anyone else, that personal virtue does not necessarily accompany technical expertise, and that scientific practice is profoundly impersonal. Shapin, however, here shows how the uncertainties attending scientific research make the virtues of individual researchers intrinsic to scientific work. From the early twentieth-century origins of corporate research laboratories to the high-flying scientific entrepreneurship of the present, Shapin argues that the radical uncertainties of much contemporary science have made personal virtues more central to its practice than ever before, and he also reveals how radically novel aspects of late modern science have unexpectedly deep historical roots. His elegantly conceived history of the scientific career and character ultimately encourages us to reconsider the very nature of the technical and moral worlds in which we now live. Building on the insights of Shapin's last three influential books, featuring an utterly fascinating cast of characters, and brimming with bold and original claims, The Scientific Life is essential reading for anyone wanting to reflect on late modern American culture and how it has been shaped.

    Abstract: Jürgen Habermas vertritt die These, dass sich das Konsensprinzip des kommunikativen Handelns in den Meinungs- und Willensbildungsprozess der Politik übertragen lasse. In der vorliegenden grundlegenden Kritik zeigt die Autorin, dass diese These nicht haltbar ist. Anders als Habermas annimmt, findet kommunikatives Handeln keinen Eingang in die Prozeduralität der Politik. Das politische Handeln wird vielmehr durch systemische Vorgaben bestimmt. Diese ergeben sich im Wesentlichen aus der Prozeduralität des ökonomischen Systems sowie aus der über Macht bestimmten Prozeduralität des politischen Systems selbst.

    Abstract: In the United States the economic exploitation of non-white groups has included the reliance on African American slave labor by Southern plantation owners, the systematic removal of Native Americans from their homelands to make room for white settlers, and the relegation of non-white workers to the most low-paid, dangerous and dirty jobs. Through numerous examples Shirley Better demonstrates that racism is embedded within the fabric of American society, restricting equal access to educational opportunities, employment, and housing. Having outlined the causes and effects of institutional racism

    Abstract: Long description: Philosophische Theorien der Gerechtigkeit nehmen die Vielfalt alltäglicher Gerechtigkeitsurteile selten zur Kenntnis. Anders dagegen David Miller: Ausgehend von einer Analyse der Kontexte, in denen die in der Gesellschaft kursierenden Gerechtigkeitsvorstellungen entstehen, zeigt er deren Vielgestaltigkeit – und ihren philosophischen Gehalt. Er identifiziert drei Grundsätze, die allen Vorstellungen von sozialer Gerechtigkeit zugrunde liegen: Bedarf, Verdienst und Gleichheit. Seine zentrale These ist, dass mit den unterschiedlichen Formen menschlicher Beziehungen der jeweilige Stellenwert dieser Grundsätze variiert. Millers klar und unprätentiös geschriebenes Buch verdient es, in einem Atemzug mit den Werken von Rawls und Walzer genannt zu werden. Glanzstücke seiner Argumentation sind unter anderem seine Bemerkungen zur Rolle von Glück bei der Beurteilung von Leistungen für das Gerechtigkeitsempfinden. - Biographical note: David Miller lehrt Sozialphilosophie und politische Theorie am Nuffield College in Oxford.

Three essays by Irigaray herself present the outcomes of her own experiments in this area and develop proposals for teaching people how to coexist in difference, reach self-affection, and rethink the relations between teachers and students. In the last few years, Irigaray has brought together young academics from various countries, universities and disciplines, all of whom were carrying out research into her work. These research students have received personal instruction from Irigaray and at the same time have lea

Zammito in:Monatshefte 3.101/2009 "Die perspektivenreiche Studie leistet einen wichtigen Beitrag zur Selbstaufklärung der Aufklärung."Klaus Manger in: Germanistik 3-4/2008
    Abstract: Main description: Die Studie zeigt, dass es eine Verkürzung des aufklärerischen Diskurses wäre, betrachtete man das Vorurteil nur als einen der von der Aufklärung anvisierten Angriffspunkte. Der Vorurteilsdiskurs wird vielmehr zum Modus der Selbstaufklärung der Aufklärung. Im literarischen und popularphilosophischen Nachdenken über das Vorurteil erschüttern anthropologiebasierte Argumente die rationale Gewissheit, mit der Vorurteile kritisiert und durch Wahrheit ersetzt werden sollten. Fragen nach der Funktion von Vorurteilen und nach Wegen, mit ihnen umzugehen, ersetzen philosophische Begriffe und Typologien.
    Abstract: Main description: This study argues that it would be a foreshortening of Enlightenment discourse to regard prejudice merely as one of the bugbears the Enlightenment set out to dismantle. Rather, the discourse on prejudice served as a mode of self-enlightenment. Anthropologically oriented arguments advanced in literary and popular philosophical reflection on prejudice unsettled the rational certainty with which prejudices were criticized and replaced by the truth. Inquiries into the function of prejudices and attempts to find ways of engaging with them figured as substitutes for philosophical concepts and typologies.

    Abstract: Alexander R. Galloway and Eugene Thacker challenge the widespread assumption that networks are inherently egalitarian. Instead, they contend that there exist new modes of control entirely native to networks, modes that are at once highly centralized and dispersed, corporate and subversive. In this provocative book, they argue that a whole new topology must be invented to resist and reshape the network form.

    Abstract: This book is a welcome consolidation and extension of the recent expanding debates on happiness and economics. Happiness and economics, as a new field for research, is now of pivotal interest particularly to welfare economists and psychologists. This Handbook provides an unprecedented forum for discussion of the economic issues relating to happiness. It reviews the more recent literature and offers the interested reader an insight into the vast scope of the field in terms of the theory, its applications and also experimental design. The Handbook also gives substantial indications as to the future direction of research in the field, with particular regard to policy applications and developing an economics of interpersonal relations which includes reciprocity and social interaction theory

    Abstract: Main description: Ein merkwürdiges Schweigen herrscht in der Gegenwartsphilosophie gegenüber dem Essen. In der Vergangenheit hingegen haben sich viele Philosophen intensiv mit moraltheoretischen Fragen eines guten Essens beschäftigt. Die theoriegeschichtliche Rekonstruktion dieses Ernährungsdiskurses zeigt auf, wie weitreichend und umfassend das tägliche Essen die menschliche Welt erzeugt. Dabei werden zwei Theoriestränge herausgearbeitet: Während der diätmoralische Diskurs die menschliche Essistenz zugunsten eines rein geistigen Glücks entwertet und die Moral einer vernunftlosen Ernährung lehrt, vergewissert sich das gastrosophische Denken mit der Ethik eines guten Essens der alltäglichen Möglichkeit einer vernünftigen Lebenspraxis. Diese Gegenüberstellung ist einem wesentlichen Ziel praktischer Philosophie verpflichtet: Sie dient der kritisch-theoretischen Begründung einer besseren Praxis – nicht nur des Essens.

Die philosophischen Fingerzeige sind mannigfaltig, und groß ist das Nahrungsangebot für den denkerisch anspruchsvollen Gaumen [...]. Der Autor brilliert mit seiner sophistizierten Bildung sowohl in der geistigen wie auch der leiblichen Dimension." Neue Zürcher Zeitung, 8. März 2008 "[Das Buch gibt] Anregungen an die Hand für eine ernährungsspezifische Selbstsorge, die das Nützliche des ethisch guten Essens mit dem Angenehmen kulinarischen Genießens verbindet." Michael Wetzel in: Deutschlandradio Kultur, 14. April 2008 "Lemkes Einführung in die Gastrosophie [ist] ein gelungenes Beispiel für die Möglichkeiten der theoretischen Durchdringung einer Praxis, wie dies eine der gesellschaftlich relevanten Leistungen der Philosophie sein kann. Der philosophishe Diskurs der Gegenwart gewinnt hier eine Facette, die sich durch große Eigenständigkeit und Originalität auszeichnet." Wilhelm Schmid in: Mitteilungen des Internationalen Arbeitskreises für die Kulturforschung des Essens, Dezember 2008 Das Buch vermag "den eigenen Anspruch des 'Kochs' und 'Gastgebers' Lemke durchaus zu erfüllen: den Appetit der Leser auf das Thema zu wecken, ihren Erkenntnishunger zu befriedigen und [...] ein Überdenken ihrer gewohnten Urteils- und Essensweise anzustoßen." Astrid von der Lühe in: Journal Culinaire, Nr. 6, Mai 2008 "Lemkes gelehrte Studie [...] ist eine reichhaltige Informationsquelle für alle, die an der Kulturgeschichte des Essens und Trinkens interessiert sind, und ein leidenschaftliches Plädoyer für eine kritische Gastrosophie, die für den Primat der Ethik vor der Politik eintritt, vor allem aber vor einer moralisch völlig entleerten Ökonomie." In: Bio Nachrichten, Juni 2010, Nr. 16

    Abstract: Since its initial publication in 1990, this book has become a key work of contemporary feminist theory, and an essential work for anyone interested in the study of gender, queer theory, or the politics of sexuality in culture. This is the text where the author began to advance the ideas that would go on to take life as "performativity theory," as well as some of the first articulations of the possibility for subversive gender practices. Overall, this book offers a powerful critique of heteronormativity and of the function of gender in the modern world

    Abstract: Holding On to Reality is a brilliant history of information, from its inception in the natural world to its role in the transformation of culture to the current Internet mania and is attendant assets and liabilities. Drawing on the history of ideas, the details of information technology, and the boundaries of the human condition, Borgmann illuminates the relationship between things and signs, between reality and information. "[Borgmann] has offered a stunningly clear definition of information in Holding On to Reality. . . . He leaves room for little argument, unless one wants to pose the now vogue objection: I guess it depends on what you mean by nothing."-Paul Bennett, Wired "A superb anecdotal analysis of information for a hype-addled age."-New Scientist "This insightful and poetic reflection on the changing nature of information is a wonderful antidote to much of the current hype about the 'information revolution.' Borgmann reminds us that whatever the reality of our time, we need 'a balance of signs and things' in our lives."-Margaret Wertheim, LA Weekly.

    Abstract: Comprised of thirteen articles by well-known authors, this book makes the case to philosophers that popular culture is worthy of their attention. Issues of concern include the distinction between high culture and popular culture, the aesthetic and moral value of popular culture, allusion and identification in popular culture, and special problems posed by the interpretation of popular culture. Popular art forms considered include: movies, television shows, comic books, children's stories, photographs, and rock songs

    Abstract: Ist in der soziologischen Systemtheorie von Inklusion und Exklusion die Rede, wird ein kontroverser Theoriebereich berührt. Besonders umstritten ist der Begriff der Exklusion als Kern einer Systemtheorie sozialer Ungleichheit. Häufig übersehen wird dabei der theorieinterne Rahmen der Unterscheidung, ohne dessen Kenntnis die Widersprüche einer Systemtheorie sozialer Exklusion nicht gelöst werden können. Die Studie von Sina Farzin rekonstruiert systematisch die Ausarbeitung der Differenz Inklusion/Exklusion im Werk Niklas Luhmanns. Dabei treten deutlich die Begriffsverschiebungen hervor, die zur Problematisierung der Unterscheidung in der jüngeren Forschung geführt haben

    Abstract: In Kierkegaard's Romantic Legacy, Anoop Gupta develops an original theory of the self based on Kierkegaard's writings. Gupta proceeds by historical exegesis and considers several important ways of thinking about self outside of the natural sciences. His study moves theories of the self from theology toward sociology, from a God-relationship to a social one, and illustrates how a loss in theological underpinnings partly contributes to the rise in the popularity of cultural relativism. By drawing on Kierkegaard's writings, Gupta develops a metaphysical account of the self that provides an alternative to the idea that there is no such thing as human nature

    Abstract: At the beginning of the twenty-first century the demand for anthropological approaches, understandings and methodologies outside academic departments is shifting and changing. Through a series of fascinating case studies of anthropologists' experiences of working with very diverse organizations in the private and public sector this volume examines existing and historical debates about applied anthropology. It explores the relationship between the ""pure and the impure"" - academic and applied anthropology, the question of anthropological identities in new working environments, new methodologi

    Abstract: Hauptbeschreibung: Der wirtschaftliche Aufstieg nach dem Zweiten Weltkrieg hat das politische Selbstverständnis Westdeutschlands in hohem Maße geprägt. »Wachstum« und »Stabilität« avancierten zu Leitbegriffen, die wissenschaftliche Theorien, gesellschaftliche Diskussionen und politisches Handeln bestimmten. Zugleich gewann ökonomisches Wissen an Bedeutung. Politiker und Wirtschaftsführer griffen immer häufiger auf die Expertise der Ökonomen zurück; in den Medien expandierte die Wirtschaftsberichterstattung.Alexander Nützenadel verfolgt die Entwicklung der westdeutschen Nationalökonomie nach 194

    Abstract: In the summer of 1991, population geneticists and evolutionary biologists proposed to archive human genetic diversity by collecting the genomes of "isolated indigenous populations." Their initiative, which became known as the Human Genome Diversity Project, generated early enthusiasm from those who believed it would enable huge advances in our understanding of human evolution. However, vocal criticism soon emerged. Physical anthropologists accused Project organizers of reimporting racist categories into science. Indigenous-rights leaders saw a "Vampire Project" that sought the blood of indigenous people but not their well-being. More than a decade later, the effort is barely off the ground. How did an initiative whose leaders included some of biology's most respected, socially conscious scientists become so stigmatized? How did these model citizen-scientists come to be viewed as potential racists, even vampires? This book argues that the long abeyance of the Diversity Project points to larger, fundamental questions about how to understand knowledge, democracy, and racism in an age when expert claims about genomes increasingly shape the possibilities for being human. Jenny Reardon demonstrates that far from being innocent tools for fighting racism, scientific ideas and practices embed consequential social and political decisions about who can define race, racism, and democracy, and for what ends. She calls for the adoption of novel conceptual tools that do not oppose science and power, truth and racist ideologies, but rather draw into focus their mutual constitution.
