    Abstract: "Shedding light on the future of urban spaces, this path-breaking book is a significant contribution to contemporary climate change scholarship. It synthesizes interdisciplinary research with practical policy, putting an emphasis on positive environmental and socially just outcomes and urban regeneration. Hot Cities offers insights from eminent academics and practitioners, providing both a practical and theoretical outlook on strategy development in a climate crisis. Chapters call for urgent responses to the urban heat problem, providing future projections to illustrate why this is important. They highlight that despite prominent issues within cities, such as maladaptive practices or unsustainable path dependency in city policy and planning, urban spaces are likely to be the safest and most protected locations from the uncompromising outcomes of global warming. This enlightening book will be incredibly useful for scholars of human geography, urban planning, climate adaptation and disaster risk reduction, environmental humanities, urban design and urban and regional studies. Due to its broad applicability, it will also benefit design practitioners and community developers"--

    Keywords: International education
    Abstract: "The global education crisis is a complex problem that requires change from teachers, school managers, civil society, implementers, planners, governments and donors. Addressing the issues that lie beneath this crisis requires new ways of working. Systems thinking is a suite of approaches to grappling with complex problems that is beginning to gain traction in international education. This book brings together new research in the nascent field of systems thinking in international education. Outlining the implications that systems thinking can hold for future research, practice and progress towards Sustainable Development Goal 4, a diverse range of leading scholars, policymakers and practitioners present novel research to encourage the shift from a linear view of change to a systems view. Chapters present diverse approaches to applying systems thinking in education across middle- and low-income countries, alongside research on how this has changed mindsets more widely. Questioning notions such as scaling and the universal applicability of 'what works', authors here suggest that locally relevant evidence and systemic rewards for using it are necessary to achieve SDG 4. This innovative book exemplifies how systems thinking offers the tools, frameworks and concepts to improve outcomes in education systems. With the education crisis further exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic, this timely book is essential reading for all those concerned with education and sustainable development goals. This thought-provoking book should be read by all those working to achieve SDG4; those whose day jobs inspire them and who look to their bookshelves for new ideas"--

    Keywords: Crisis management
    Abstract: "Reflecting on the depth of the experience with crises, this innovative book demonstrates what the world can learn from insights into crises from the Japanese perspective. Taking an institutionalist approach with a strong historical precedent, leading scholars in the social sciences and law explore how better to deal with both foreseeable and unforeseen crises. Illustrating their multifaceted and complex nature, the book examines a broad range of crises throughout history, including economic, fiscal and political crises; force majeure events such as pandemics and natural disasters; and military conflicts and acts of war. Chapters consider how various actors anticipate and deal with these crises, looking closely at their different perceptions of crisis and varying degrees of urgency. Analyzing institutional design and response, and the impact of psychological factors on disaster preparedness, the book considers how the decision-making capabilities of individuals can be enhanced to improve institutional capacity. Transdisciplinary, with an international reach, this topical book will prove invaluable to students and scholars across the social sciences, particularly those interested in Asian politics and environmental policy, disaster preparedness and institutional design. It also provides guidance for policymakers working in civil code reform"--

    Keywords: Education, Higher Social aspects ; Education, Higher Aims and objectives
    Abstract: "Despite the broad engagement of higher education institutions in most social sectors, limited thinking and hyper-individualistic approaches have dominated discussions of their value to society. Advocating a more rigorous and comprehensive approach, this insightful book discusses the broad range of contributions made by higher education and the many issues entailed in theorising, observing, measuring and evaluating those contributions. Prepared by a group of leading international scholars, the chapters investigate the multiple interconnections between higher education and society and the vast range of social, economic, political and cultural functions carried out by universities, colleges and institutes and their personnel. The benefits of higher education include employable graduates, new knowledge via research and scholarship, climate science and global connections, and the structuring of economic and social opportunities for whole populations, as well as work and advice for government at all levels. Higher education not only lifts earnings and augments careers, it also immerses students in knowledge, helps to shape them as people, and fosters productivity, democracy, tolerance and international understanding. The book highlights the value added by higher education for persons, organisations, communities, cities, nations, and the world. It also focuses on inequalities in the distribution of that value, and finds that the tools for assessing higher education are neither adequate nor complete as yet. International and interdisciplinary in scope, this book will prove an invaluable resource to students and scholars of higher education, educational policy and social policy. It will also prove a useful resource to both university executives and tertiary education policymakers who want to make higher education more effectively accountable to the public"--

    Abstract: Feminist Frontiers in Climate Justice provides a compelling demonstration of the deeply gendered and unequal effects of the climate emergency, alongside the urgent need for a feminist perspective to expose and address these structural political, social and economic inequalities. Taking a nuanced, multidisciplinary approach, this book explores new ways of thinking about how climate change interacts with gender inequalities and feminist concerns with rights and law, and how the human world is bound up with the non-human, natural world. With contributions from leading scholars in law, feminism, human rights and politics, this book considers how equality is conceptualised experienced and used in policies, law and practice that are integral to climate justice. Chapters reveal how international and national policy and legal frameworks fall short on gender equality and climate justice. Overall, the book demonstrates that the climate crisis demands an ambitious and transformative approach to equality, including developing feminist ideas of care and social reproduction, to reconstruct law and policy towards a more just world for all. This ground-breaking book will be essential reading for scholars across many areas of law including environmental law, human rights, public international law, law and gender, and law and development. Its discussion of the international framework alongside in-depth case studies and assessments of women's mobilization strategies will also be highly relevant to social scientists, officials in international organizations, policymakers, lawyers and activists.

    Abstract: Skills and inequality have long been a central theme in analyses of social structure and economic development. A Research Agenda for Skills and Inequality offers an insightful cross-disciplinary framework for research on how unequal living conditions form, persist and change in interplay with human skill formation and development. Drawing on prominent new advances in the field, this incisive Research Agenda builds a forward-thinking framework for research. Spanning an extensive eighteen chapters, each examining a specific but major aspect of the general theme of skills and inequality, the book provides a comprehensive overview of links between the two. Against the backdrop of established insights from related but separate fields of inquiry, including economics, sociology, demography, human resource management, political science, philosophy and psychology, the Research Agenda presents an exciting overview of recent advances in analyses of skills and inequality. Opening vistas for future research based on extensive literature reviews and new findings, this Research Agenda offers compact, ground-breaking essays for students, policy makers, and advanced researchers in many disciplines including social policy, business management, and employment relations

    Abstract: Providing a much-needed study on cybersecurity regime building, this comprehensive book is a detailed analysis of cybersecurity norm-making processes and country positions, through the lens of multi-stakeholder diplomacy. Multi-disciplinary and multi-national scholars and practitioners use insights drawn from high-level discussion groups to provide a rigorous analysis of how major cyber powers view multi-stakeholder diplomacy. Looking at how past cybersecurity initiatives and multi-stakeholder negotiations in other fields illuminate its dynamics, this book will help put states' approaches towards multi-stakeholder cyber diplomacy into perspective, and frame the role of private actors in cybersecurity regime building. Evaluating the most promising institutional arrangements and mechanisms for implementing cybersecurity, this book combines top-down analyses relevant to the design of international cybersecurity regimes with bottom-up case studies, tracing the approaches of important states towards multi-stakeholder participation in cyber diplomacy. With a wealth of policy-relevant findings, this book will be welcomed by practitioners and scholars of international law, international organisation and international cybersecurity as well as multi-stakeholder governance and multilateral regimes. Policymakers and diplomats involved in international cybersecurity processes will also benefit from its cutting-edge comparative analysis of the approaches of key cyber powers.

    DDC: 323
    Keywords: Human rights Moral and ethical aspects
    Abstract: "This forward-thinking book illustrates the complexities of the morality of human rights. Emphasising the role of human rights as the only true global political morality to arise since the Second World War, chapters explore its role as applied to often controversial issues, such as capital punishment, the exclusion of same-sex couples from civil marriage and criminal abortion bans. Clarifying and cross-examining the morality of human rights, Michael J. Perry discusses their connection to moral equality and moral freedom, as well as exploring the significance of anti-poverty human rights. This illuminating book concludes with an explanation as to why the morality of human rights is acutely relevant to challenges faced by humanity in the modern era. In particular, the challenges of growing economic inequality and climate change are emphasised as having profound relevance to the morality of human rights. Interrogating the Morality of Human Rights will be of great benefit to both undergraduate and graduate students who are contemplating the idea of human rights and their morality within their studies. Professors and academics with cause to study and research human rights would also find it to be of interest, particularly those in the field of legal scholarship"--

    Abstract: "Edward Elgar Publishing Ltd in partnership with United Nations Inter-Agency Task Force on SSE (UNTFSSE) The Encyclopedia of the Social and Solidarity Economy is a comprehensive reference text that explores how the social and solidarity economy (SSE) plays a significant role in creating and developing economic activities in alternative ways. In contrast to processes involving commodification, commercialisation, bureaucratisation and corporatisation, the SSE reasserts the place of ethics, social well-being and democratic decision-making in economic activities and governance. Identifying and analysing a myriad of issues and topics associated with the SSE, the Encyclopedia broadens the knowledge base of diverse actors of the SSE, including practitioners, activists and policymakers. Analysing the role of SSE organisations and enterprises in enhancing wellbeing, planetary health and democracy at various levels and their contribution to achieving the Sustainable Development Goals, the Encyclopedia invaluably summarises knowledge about the key aspects of the SSE. Accomplished researchers depart from traditional nationalistic, Eurocentric and trans-Atlantic perspectives to explain the SSE from a global perspective with a focus on untold stories of its development in both developing and developed countries. A collective work of the UN Inter-Agency Task Force on SSE (UNTFSSE), this Encyclopedia will serve as an essential tool for scholars and students of comparative social policy, international economics, management studies and economic sociology. Key Features: - 57 entries - Clearly organised into thematic sections addressing histories, concepts and theories, actors and organisations, development, and environment and governance - Breaks down the complex relationship between economic, social and political dimensions in an accessible way"--

    Abstract: "The Handbook on European Union Climate Change Policy and Politics provides a wide-ranging and in-depth assessment of current and emerging challenges facing the EU in committing to and delivering increasingly ambitious climate policy objectives. It traces the development of climate and energy policies since the early 1990s and examines their continued evolution in the context of the 2019 European Green Deal. With contributions from leading international scholars, it describes the key dynamics driving policy developments and the role of key actors in climate and energy-related policy processes. Covering topics that have previously been relatively neglected, or have recently gained greater significance, such as finance and investment, 'hard to abate' sectors and negative emissions, this timely Handbook offers an up-to-date and unrivalled exploration of the complexities of climate policymaking. It will be of primary interest to academics researching EU politics, and environmental politics, policy, regulation and governance more widely. It will be especially pertinent to students and researchers who require more specialized knowledge of EU climate policy and politics"--

    Keywords: Social service
    Abstract: "In the face of major global demographic change, social care policy and practice are in urgent need of radical reform and reassessment. Rising poverty, inequality and pressure on local communities internationally, are also increasing the urgent need for reform. Drawing on the crisis-ridden UK experience as a case-study, this highly original book identifies the limits of the traditional welfare state in taking forward policy for the twenty-first century. The proposals amount to a renewed approach to social care, based on the philosophy of independent living as originally developed by the international disabled people's movement and subsequently embodied in a United Nations treaty applicable to all in need of care and support. Despite wide international sign up since adoption in 2008 there is little evidence of any nation successfully delivering. For the first time, this book offers both a blueprint for an environmentally sustainable, rights-based approach to social care and a practical route to achieving it"--

    Keywords: Home care services
    Abstract: "This thoughtful book provides a refreshing, comparative perspective on the future of care homes in our post-pandemic world. Building on more than a decade of collaborative international and interdisciplinary research in Canada, Germany, Norway, Sweden, the UK and the US, it employs a feminist political economy framework to address the key challenges facing care homes in this turbulent era. With particular attention to lessons learned in Canada, Sweden, and Norway, the contributing authors argue that publicly-funded care homes remain critical to care arrangements but require policy and practice transformations to produce equitable and supportive conditions. Attentive to the specific contexts and tensions that shape care, chapters address key questions about care home quality and labour in relation to gender, race, ethnicity, religion and class. The book analyses the physical and social boundaries that set the conditions for quality of life and care, moving beyond the minimum to explain how nursing homes can provide joy. Offering alternative approaches to the complex challenges facing this vital public service, this book will be a key reference for students and scholars of health policy, comparative social policy and social work. Its integration of statistical, policy and practice analysis with ethnographic research will prove invaluable to those concerned with long-term care policy and practice"--

    Abstract: "Nature-based solutions (NBS) are increasingly being adopted to address climate change, health, and urban sustainability, yet ensuring they are effective and inclusive remains a challenge. Addressing these challenges through chapters by leading experts in both global south and north contexts, this forward-looking book advances the science of NBS in cities and discusses the frontiers for next-generation urban NBS. NBS are fundamentally inter- and transdisciplinary approaches that require systems thinking and multi-level governance. With a focus on the multiple challenges that cities face, from heat and air pollution to storm water and threats to human health, this book puts forward a diversity of ideas for embracing complexity in mainstreaming NBS and inspiring new approaches to create the ecological urban futures we need. Speaking to the need for cities around the world to employ ecological, nature-based design, this book will be essential reading for early career professionals, practitioners, scholars, and students across multiple disciplines engaging with nature-based solutions including urban ecology, design, architecture, landscape architecture, geography, urban planning, policy, and management"--

    Abstract: In diesem Open-Access-Buch stehen Software und ihre Rolle für das Soziale im Mittelpunkt. Die Arbeit stellt Grundprobleme und Lösungsansätze einer Soziologie der Software vor und skizziert damit eine soziologische Perspektive auf einen Forschungsgegenstand, der für das Verständnis digitalisierter Gesellschaften zentral ist. Dafür werden organisations- und techniksoziologische Forschungsergebnisse zum Thema Software mit Erkenntnissen aus den Science and Technology Studies und der Forschung zu Computer Supported Cooperative Work zusammengeführt. Die Autorin entwickelt auf dieser Basis einen Forschungsrahmen, in dem Software gleichzeitig als Werkzeug für und als Resultat von Versuchen betrachtet wird, Kontrolle über das Soziale und seine Unsicherheiten auszuüben. Anhand einer Fallstudie zum Einsatz der weit verbreiteten Standardsoftware SAP für die Planung von Operationen wird vorgeführt, wie Software die Machtspiele in Organisationen beeinflusst und von Einzelnen strategisch genutzt wird, um individuelle Ziele zu erreichen. Es zeigt sich, dass Software ein Machtinstrument ist, das nicht nur von der Organisationsleitung, sondern auch gegen sie eingesetzt werden kann. Dabei wird verständlich, warum Software in Organisationen selten nur das verändert, was bei ihrer Einführung beabsichtigt war. Die Autorin Dzifa Ametowobla ist Informatikerin und Soziologin. Ihre Forschungsschwerpunkte sind Organisationssoziologie und soziologische Digitalisierungsforschung. Sie arbeitet als wissenschaftliche Mitarbeiterin am Institut für Soziologie der Technischen Universität Berlin.

    Abstract: "Adopting an interdisciplinary approach this book provides a cutting-edge, in-depth account of social policy research today, how we got here, and where future research should be headed. It defines the core research agenda for the future covering multiple social policy fields, including care, family, health, and housing policy as well as gender equality, labour market policy, and welfare attitudes. The book brings together a unique combination of scholars from social policy, sociology, political science, international relations, and law, who explore how European societies have changed over the last 20 years, the future challenges which need to be addressed and the role for social policy research. The editors argue that to advance research on European social policy, we need to develop a better understanding of the interplay between multiple policies, invest more resources in theoretical development, and effectively utilize perhaps the greatest asset of European social policy research - its multidisciplinarity. Offering crucial insights into the dynamic nature of social policy research, this book will be a valuable guide for social policy scholars and students. Its discussion of a broad range of social policy areas will also be useful for practitioners and policymakers across a wide range of social policy fields"--

It is free to read, download and share on Elgaronline thanks to generous funding support from The Swedish Governmental Agency For Innovation Systems, Vinnova. This timely book expertly examines ongoing pressing issues in the modern world namely, an unstable economic climate, political turmoil and the environmental crisis. It takes a unique look at how science, technology and innovation could contribute towards the creation of a smarter and more resilient society by allowing more inclusive approaches into how science is integrated. With an insightful global interdisciplinary approach, Smart Policies for Societies in Transition combines in-depth theoretical analysis whilst also providing a reflective look at broadening the scope of science and innovation policy in order to understand the critical issues and challenges. Chapters illustrate historical practices and events, and discuss how the move to smart politics and the linking of boundaries from a social, ecological and global viewpoint leads to fewer but more creative policies. With its retrospective and forward-thinking perspectives, this book will be an excellent resource for academics wanting to rethink their approach to science and innovation governance, whilst scholars will find the collaborative method for combining policy analysis with theory of policymaking and governance informative and illuminating"--

    Keywords: Personal information management Handbooks, manuals, etc ; Electronic books
    Abstract: "Companies, lawyers, privacy officers, compliance managers, as well as human resources, marketing and IT professionals are increasingly facing privacy issues. While plenty of information is freely available, it can be difficult to grasp a problem quickly, without getting lost in details and advocacy. This is where Determann's Field Guide to Data Privacy Law comes into its own - identifying key issues and providing concise practical guidance for an increasingly complex field shaped by rapid change in international laws, technology and society. This fifth edition reflects significant changes since 2019, such as new laws in California and other jurisdictions, new EU Standard Contractual Clauses, data residency requirements, machine learning, data monetization trends, cloud adoption and the Internet of Things. Readers will benefit from an introduction to key data privacy concepts and useful practical guidance on starting, maintaining and auditing compliance programs. Step-by-step direction on drafting privacy documentation is provided, with 'how-to' suggestions for tasks and projects. Finally, the book offers an A-Z list of hot topics, organized by commonly used buzz words, as well as a rich index and checklists. This guide should be on the desk and in the briefcase of every compliance officer and corporate counsel. New to this Edition: -practical tips on deploying the new EU Standard Contractual Clauses -guidance on data maps, gap assessments, audit controls, and privacy-tech tools -updated discussion and comparison of pros and cons of cross-border transfer compliance mechanisms -new guidance based on GDPR enforcement, the California Consumer Privacy Act, the CLOUD Act and other new laws -practical considerations regarding dark patterns, anonymization, COVID-19 related challenges, "Schrems 2 assessments," arbitration clauses, competition laws and data sharing. Key Features: -clear structure facilitates quick reference -A-Z of data privacy provides snapshot of key topics -direction on geographical and topical prioritization -practical guide to starting, maintaining and auditing privacy compliance programs -glossaries of key acronyms and terms help navigation through the field -concise overview of practical requirements of data privacy law compliance worldwide -advice on drafting documentation and tools to complete an end-to-end process, including sample documentation and checklists"--

    Keywords: Disasters Research ; Electronic books
    Abstract: "This timely book unpacks the idea of 'disaster' from a variety of approaches, broadening understanding and improving the usability of this complex and often contested concept. Including multidisciplinary perspectives from leading and emerging scholars, it offers reflections on how the concept of disaster has been shaped by and within various fields of research, providing complementary and thought-provoking comparisons across many domains. Functioning as an important point of reference between and across disciplines, chapters explore the forces and building blocks of disaster and how these are interpreted, providing opportunities for dialogue between multiple points of view. The book concludes with a broader, integrated discussion of the aspects of disaster research covered, putting forward suggestions for further cooperation between disciplines and a future research agenda. Defining Disaster will be a fascinating read for disaster researchers in disciplines including law, sociology, and social and public policy who wish to improve their understanding of how their work maps onto the wider field. It will also be beneficial for policy makers and practitioners in this area looking for a rounded view of contemporary cross-disciplinary research on the subject"--

    Series Statement: Elgar research reviews in law
    Keywords: Constitutional law ; Equality ; Electronic books
    Abstract: In this research review, Rebecca E. Zietlow identifies and gives invaluable context to the most important scholarly contributions on the topic of constitutional law and equality. While much of the scholarship around constitutional equality focuses on court enforcement of the Equal Protection Clause, the story of constitutional equality is not just about legal advocacy, but political action in an increasingly diverse nation. The future of constitutional equality depends less on legal arguments before courts than on political advocacy for social and economic change

    Abstract: "Elgar Research Agendas outline the future of research in a given area. Leading scholars are given the space to explore their subject in provocative ways, and map out the potential directions of travel. They are relevant but also visionary. Exploring the social, economic and environmental impacts of events on people, places and communities, this timely Research Agenda highlights the links between theory and practice in event impacts research. Top scholars critically assess events, looking at who benefits from hosting them, and focusing on issues surrounding sustainability, the need to define legacies, and the need to extend regeneration efforts to secure economic and socially sustainable futures. The Research Agenda first outlines key theories and concepts in the field, addressing the three impacts recognized in triple bottom line considerations of sustainability. Chapters then move to analyse a range of types and scales of event, including: conventions and business events, sports tourism, cultural and religious events, intangible cultural heritage, and events in rural locations. This forward-looking Research Agenda further analyses event hosting in emerging economy nations, disability access and inclusion, climate change and the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic. Covering a broad range of types, scales and settings of events, this will be a crucial read for event studies and event management scholars. The critical insights to practical impacts of events will also be beneficial for policy-makers and event practitioners"--

    Keywords: Work-life balance Handbooks, manuals, etc ; Quantitative research ; Electronic books
    Abstract: "This innovative and thought-provoking Research Handbook explores the theoretical debate surrounding work-life balance, and provides a reflection on the opportunity to adopt multilevel research approaches and perspectives, along gender and temporal axes. The Research Handbook is an international overview of current research on work-life balance, considered in macro, meso and micro perspectives. Offering both theoretical reflections and empirical research examples illustrating the multiple strategies through which the different articulations that characterize the work-life intersection can be analysed, this Research Handbook includes analyses of gendered labour, generational assets and technological changes. Contributors provide translation and actualization of specific research practices and methodological choices, focused on different national contexts. The empirical analysis ranges from comparative research based on quantitative methods, to qualitative approaches centered on longitudinal, discursive and narrative perspectives, and mixed-method studies. Further contributions adopt innovative research methods based on the use of digital and visual technologies. This Research Handbook will be an inspiring read for both undergraduate and postgraduate sociology and social policy students. The book is also addressed to researchers, consultants and policy makers interested in work-life balance issues"--

    Abstract: "This illuminating book offers a timely assessment of the development and proliferation of precursor crimes of terrorism, exploring the functions and implications of these expanding offences in different jurisdictions. In response to new modes and sources of terrorism, attempts to pre-empt potential attacks through precursor offences have emerged. This book examines not only the meanings and effectiveness of this approach, but also the challenges posed to human rights and social and economic development. Featuring contributions from leading academic and practitioner experts in counter-terrorism law, the book covers the broad scope of activities tackled by these new legal interventions, including membership, collaboration, communications, training and financing. Taking a comparative approach that relies on extensive experience in various jurisdictions, including the UK and Spain, the chapters also discuss important related issues such as international cooperation, investigations and penology, offering insights into the context of policies and practices. Scholars and advanced students of criminal and human rights law with an interest in terrorism and terrorism offences will find this book essential reading. It will also benefit legal practitioners and policy makers in fields such as international criminal law cooperation and counter-terrorism"--

    Abstract: "This book covers a broad range of legal topics relating to the fields of bioinformatics and medical informatics, which relate to the intersection of biomedical information and computer programming within the contexts of scientific research, product development and healthcare delivery. A number of usually distinct bodies of legal doctrine come together in this area, sometimes overlapping, sometimes colliding in unexpected ways. Key issues discussed in the book include: -An overview of the current landscape of bioinformatics and medical informatics -A focus on the legal issues arising from the development and acquisition of informatics tools for use in a laboratory or healthcare setting -Developments in patent and innovation law that are important for informatics applications -A discussion of institutions and collaborative arrangements in which informatics applications are developed and used today -Data protection and privacy issues applicable to informatics applications in the U.S. and Europe. While no single work can cover the entire set of legal issues arising from large, dynamic and complex fields such as bioinformatics and medical informatics, this book strives to offer the reader insight into some of the major legal trends and considerations applicable to these fields today"--

    Abstract: Offering insights on violence in conservation in Africa, this timely book demonstrates how and why the state pursues conservation objectives to the detriment of its citizens. It focuses on how the dehumanization of black people and indigenous groups, the insertion of global green agendas onto the continent, a lack of resource sovereignty, and neoliberal conservation account for why violence is a permanent feature of conservation in Africa. Chapters uncover various forms of violence experienced on the continent, revealing the local and global conditions that enable them, and propose pathways towards non-violent conservation. The book concludes that the ideology of conservation is also an ideology about people. Crucially, it highlights the implications of increasing investment in violent instruments and the institutionalization of militarized approaches for conservation, the state, and ordinary people. Scholars and students of political ecology and environmental policy and planning will greatly benefit from this book's drawing together of perspectives encompassing green violence and the militarization of conservation. It will also be an invigorating read for African studies researchers looking at coloniality and the re-evaluation of the African state, particularly through the lens of nature conservation

    Abstract: "This cutting-edge book illuminates the key characteristics of inclusivity in mediation during armed conflicts and post-conflict peacebuilding. Daisaku Higashi illustrates the importance of mediators taking flexible approaches to inclusivity in arbitration during armed conflicts, highlighting the crucial balance between the need to select conflicting parties to make an agreement feasible and the need to include a multiplicity of parties to make the peace sustainable. Higashi also emphasizes the importance of inclusive processes in the phase of post-conflict peacebuilding. Higashi draws on first-hand experience as a team leader for reconciliation and reintegration in UNAMA, as well as interviews with leaders in conflicting states and UN missions, and recommends various roles for the UN, neighboring states and global powers in mediation during and after armed conflicts. Utilizing extensive field research and analysis, the book focuses on conflict regions in Afghanistan, South Sudan, Syria, Yemen, Iraq and East Timor to demonstrate the significance of addressing inclusivity in mediation and peacebuilding with different approaches. Engaging with a range of empirical sources to make key policy recommendations, this book is crucial reading for practitioners working in mediation and peacebuilding, particularly UN officials, think-tank experts, government officials and NGOs. It will also benefit scholars and students of political science and international relations in need of unique, real-world accounts of global mediation, peacebuilding and conflict management"--

    Abstract: "Presenting the evolution of supplementary pensions over the past 25 years, this comprehensive book introduces the origin of pensions as a concept and explores the role that international organisations play within the field. It draws comparisons between different welfare states, reflecting upon current research and identifying new directions and ideas. Despite observing significant differences in the approaches to pension design, the book identifies common challenges, including the need to provide for an increasingly aging population, slow economic growth following the 2008 global financial crisis, the need for effective regulation, and increased labour market flexibility. Leading scholars analyse the experiences of a broad range of countries and offer insights into their responses to the numerous challenges faced by national pension systems. The book covers significant moments in pensions history following the World Bank's 1994 report on Averting the Old Age Crisis, and subsequent responses to challenges posed by longevity and economic crises. This book will be an ideal companion for academic researchers and financial law scholars interested in pensions and looking to develop an international perspective on the issue, as well as professionals in the pensions industry who are engaging with other countries and looking to develop their knowledge of overseas pension systems"--

    Abstract: "Providing an in-depth and cutting-edge investigation into the rise of Asian research practices and paradigms, Mats Benner examines how this rise has been accomplished, what effects it has had, and how it has shaped universities across seven Asian countries. Broad and comprehensive, chapters analyse the research and education systems of China, Hong Kong, India, Japan, Macau, Singapore, South Korea, and Taiwan, considering how their universities operate, their models and policy priorities. Benner studies the historical, social and political causes behind the variations between these countries, before highlighting the effects of globalization on education, research and innovation. Assessing whether we are witnessing a tectonic shift in how and where education and research are carried out, the book ultimately concludes that regional disparities will remain, but that practices and priorities are becoming increasingly similar in the process of globalization. With Asia showing an increasingly marked presence in research and in scientific and technological capability, this timely book will be invaluable to university policy makers looking to innovate their education and research models, alongside students and scholars interested in Asian development, innovation and technology"--

    Abstract: "Elgar Research Agendas outline the future of research in a given area. Leading scholars are given the space to explore their subject in provocative ways, and map out the potential directions of travel. They are relevant but also visionary. Forward-looking and innovative, Elgar Research Agendas are an essential resource for PhD students, scholars and anybody who wants to be at the forefront of research. Exploring current debates on the topic, this book maps out an agenda for theory, research and practice about the role and function of small and medium-sized towns in various contexts and at different territorial scales. Chapters highlight new insights and approaches to studying small and medium-sized towns, moving beyond the 'urban bias' to provide nuanced thought on these spaces both in terms of their relation to larger cities, and in terms of implications related to their size. Contributions from top scholars in the field across a number of disciplines cover a broad range of relevant areas of study, including: socio-spatial identities, urbanization, suburbanization, resilience, innovation, entrepreneurship, industrial and tourism development and digitalization. The book concludes with an outline of the road ahead and a call for further theorizing. Urban planning and human geography scholars will find this to be an invigorating read with contributions from scholars across urban planning, economic geography, tourism and public policy providing a holistic understanding of the topic"--

    Abstract: "Written in a comprehensive yet accessible style, Urban Violence, Resilience and Security investigates the diverse nature of urban violence within Latin America, Asia and Africa. It further analyzes how regular and irregular governing mechanisms can provide human security, despite the presence of chronic violence. The empirically rich and conceptually grounded contributions of established and emerging scholars evaluate the current state and future trajectory of urban development. They also question common explanations of the drivers of violence in urban areas and also provide measured recommendations for improved policy and future governance. Chapters thoroughly examine the opportunities and hazards of focusing on resilience as the only method to improve security and identify governance and policy practices that can move beyond the rhetoric of resilience to evaluate diverse approaches to attaining human security in urban areas of the Global South. This invigorating book will be an excellent resource for academic researchers interested in urban dynamics in the Global South as well as scholars embarking on geography, human security, political science and policy studies. Based on a set of original case studies, policymakers will also benefit from the questions and challenges to the conventional approaches to urban planning and governance that it raises"--

    Abstract: Dieses Open-Access-Buch beschäftigt sich mit dem Einfluss des meritokratischen Prinzips auf die Wertschätzung beruflicher Bildung gegenüber allgemeiner bzw. akademischer Bildung. Diesen Einfluss untersucht die Autorin sowohl allgemein, das heißt auf idealtypischer Ebene, als auch in Bezug auf die Ukraine. Als Ergebnis zeigt die Studie, dass das meritokratische Leistungsprinzip idealtypisch und auch im Falle der Ukraine als Katalysator für nachteilige Entwicklungen wirkt, was die Wertschätzung beruflicher Bildung und die Erfüllung ihrer gesellschaftlichen Funktion anbelangt. Die Autorin Vera Braun ist wissenschaftliche Mitarbeiterin am Lehrstuhl für Wirtschaftspädagogik I der Universität Konstanz. Ihre Forschungsinteressen gelten makroperspektivischen Fragestellungen der Berufs- und Berufsbildungsforschung, der international vergleichenden Berufsbildungsforschung, insbesondere im post-sowjetischen Raum, und der gesellschaftlichen Bedeutung der beruflichen Bildung.

    Abstract: Steuerliche Unsicherheiten stellen eine große Herausforderung für Steuerpflichtige im Spannungsfeld von steuerlicher Planung und gleichmäßigem Steuervollzug der Finanzverwaltung dar. Es wird der Frage nachgegangen, wie solche Risiken in der Bilanz – nach Handelsrecht, Bilanzsteuerrecht und insbesondere nach internationalen Rechnungslegungsstandards – erfasst werden sollen. Während in der Handelsbilanz der Gläubigerschutz im Vordergrund steht, sollen in der internationalen Rechnungslegung (IFRIC 23) die Investoren informiert werden. Die Offenlegung in der Rechnungslegung dient ausschließlich diesen Zwecken; für eine etwaige Erweiterung von Offenlegung gegenüber der Finanzverwaltung ist das Besteuerungsverfahren der richtige Anknüpfungspunkt. Der Autor Jakob Baumgartner (geboren 1996) ist Rechtsreferendar im OLG-Bezirk Nürnberg; 2021 wurde er an der Universität Regensburg promoviert; 2019/2020 absolvierte er das LL.M.-Studium in Cambridge; 2018 legte er die Erste Juristische Prüfung ab. .

    Abstract: "Climate Change, Sustainable Development and Cleantech envisions both global cleantech development and international cleantech transfer as crucial means to address climate change and secure sustainable development for planet earth. The book examines what it takes to attract foreign cleantech and encourage domestic cleantech innovation. The author proposes a pathway for developing countries that includes international aid, mutually beneficial international cleantech cooperation and domestic cleantech innovation. Prior to becoming an academician, the author garnered over eighteen years practical experience as a software engineer and attorney at law. The author has drawn on this experience to examine empirical analysis of factual data such as global R&D data, global patenting data, international surveys concerning cleantech transfer and domestic cleantech innovation and proposes effective solutions to address climate change and achieve sustainable development. This book's interdisciplinary and empirical-based analysis and recommendations will be most valuable to policymakers working in climate change, sustainable development, cleantech development or deployment, intellectual property and innovation policy"--

    Abstract: "Social Contracts and Informal Workers in the Global South draws on the accounts of informal workers, who represent over 60 per cent of the global workforce, to advocate for radically new conceptualizations of state-society, capital-labour and state-capital-labour relations, illustrating how current social contracts may be considered inadequate, irrelevant or unjust. Bridging social contract theories, both mainstream and critical, and the experiences of informal workers - self-employed, wage employed and sub-contracted - this book sheds light on how many existing social contract models stigmatize informal workers and do not offer legal or social protection. Instead of ideologically driven 'top-down' calls to revitalize the social contract, it advocates for 'bottom-up' initiatives focused on the demands of the working poor in the informal economy. With a wealth of cross-national evidence, as well as promising case studies, this timely and thought-provoking book will prove vital for scholars and researchers of informal workers and of state-capital-labour relations; and for policy makers negotiating new social contracts"--

Using multiple case studies, the book offers a systematic analysis of how e-participation initiatives are actually organized and administered within the government, as well as how the political context and collaborative partnerships both within the government and with non-governmental actors affect the adoption and institutionalization of e-participation platforms. Contributors provide new empirical evidence on some of the most pressing questions related to the organization and management of e-participation, aiming to provide better understanding of citizen participation platforms. Providing comparative knowledge on the institutional, administrative and organizational aspects of e-participation, this book will be an ideal read for public policy researchers and government practitioners interested in innovation and technology in public administration"--

    Keywords: Emigration and immigration Handbooks, manuals, etc Political aspects ; Welfare state ; Electronic books ; Migration ; Migrationspolitik ; Sozialpolitik ; Wohlfahrtsstaat
    Abstract: "Bringing together prominent scholars in the field, this Handbook provides an interdisciplinary exploration of the complex interrelationship between migration and welfare. Chapters explore the extent to which immigration policy affects - and is affected by - welfare states, from both economic and political perspectives. This Handbook also examines the effects of emigration on sending societies exploring issues such as the impact of remittances, diasporas, and skill deterioration as a result of human capital flight on capacity building and on economic and political development more generally. Contributors draw on both qualitative and quantitative research to illuminate the contours and patterns of this complex relationship. This includes the assumed tension-reducing role of multiculturalist and integration policies, the shaping of native beliefs about migrants by socio-economic constraints and the potential for the extension of social rights to migrants to influence and increase pro-redistributive attitudes. Investigating the drivers of welfare chauvinism and its effects on social trust between native and immigrant groups, the Handbook also provides insights into the latest theoretical and empirical findings regarding the progressive's dilemma, one of the most formidable policy challenges leaders of modern societies face. Breaking new theoretical and empirical ground, this cutting-edge Handbook is essential reading for academics, researchers and students in political science, economics, sociology, social policy and political philosophy, particularly those focused on global migration and changing attitudes to welfare. It will also benefit policymakers looking for new data and pioneering perspectives on immigration policy and the future of welfare states in a changing world economy"--

    Abstract: "This innovative book provides the first in-depth analysis of participatory income and its potential role in countering endemic poverty and unemployment in high-income countries. Heikki Hiilamo reviews the concept of basic income and specific basic income experiments before presenting participatory income as a viable alternative in the fight against poverty. Highly topical, chapters explore pressing issues such as the effects of automation on the future of work and the links between social protection and eco-social transition. Putting forward the argument that any reform of social assistance should continue to enforce reciprocity with reduced means-testing, Hiilamo explores the practical advantages of the participation income model in reducing poverty and developing an eco-social welfare model. Tackling one of the most heated current debates in social policy, this book will be a key resource for scholars and students in this field, particularly those with a focus on welfare and labour economics, labour policy and the sociology of work. Its use of examples and case studies will also benefit practitioners and policy makers"--

    Abstract: Mapping a wide range of civil society research perspectives, this pioneering Research Agenda offers a rich and clear insight for academics and practitioners hoping to embark on future civil society research. Kees Biekart and Alan Fowler bring together over 20 expert contributions from researchers across the globe who are actively engaged in testing the old and generating new knowledge about civil society. Beginning with a concise historical review of civil society research over the last four decades, the book provides a critical insight into the future of research, taking into account the domestic outcomes of major geopolitical changes and the increasing shift towards authoritarian and populist systems of governance. Exploring the norms and values of civil society, as well as key topics such as voluntourism, civil society mapping, democratization, and civic agency, chapters offer a unique overview of civil society research themes and agendas. Its comprehensive analysis of canonical civil society research provides a fertile basis from which novel research can be conducted.

    Abstract: Analysing one of the most important policy areas of European integration, authors Christian Kaunert, Alex MacKenzie and Sarah Leonard consider the key question of why the EU may have become a global actor in counter-terrorism. The authors then develop a unique theoretical approach in the form of actorness and collective securitization, which analyses the EU's evolution as a counter-terrorism actor in different case studies, such as counter-terrorism in the transatlantic relationship, North Africa, the Middle East and South Asia. Overall, this book highlights that the EU is, in fact, becoming a counter-terrorism actor of growing importance and with an ever-diversifying number of policy options available.

    Abstract: "The world of intellectual property (patents, trade marks, copyrights, et cetera) is becoming increasingly international. More and more frequently, disputes about intellectual property have an international character. This inevitably raises questions of private international law: which national court is competent to adjudicate an international dispute of this kind? And which national law should be applied to an international case of this kind? Since the 1990s, the first question in particular has attracted attention; in recent years, the focus has shifted to the second question: which national law is applicable? Opinions differ widely on this matter today. The controversy focuses on the question whether the Berne Convention and the Paris Convention, the two most important treaties on intellectual property, contain a rule that designates the applicable law. In other words: do these treaties contain a 'conflict-of-law rule' as it is called? This question, which concerns nearly all countries in the world, is nowadays considered to be 'heftig umstritten' (fiercely contested) and 'très difficile' (very difficult). And that is where we come across something strange: today it may be fiercely contested whether these treaties contain a conflict-of-law rule, but in the past, for the nineteenth-century authors of these treaties, it was perfectly self-evident that these treaties contained a conflict-of-law rule, namely in the 'principle of national treatment' as it is called. How is that possible? These are the fundamental questions at the heart of this book: does the principle of national treatment in the Berne Convention and the Paris Convention contain a conflict-of-law rule? And if so, why do we no longer understand this conflict-of-law rule today? This book is an English translation of Sierd J. Schaafsma's ground-breaking book, which appeared in Dutch in 2009 (now updated with the most significant case law and legislation). Key features include: -provides deep insight into the current state of affairs in international intellectual property law -extensive analysis on the principle of national treatment in the Berne Convention and the Paris Convention -detailed and authoritative explanation of the applicable law at the intersection of the law of conflicts and intellectual property law"--

Providing unique perspectives and examples on how case teaching can be applied in entrepreneurship education, the book draws together a wide range of real-life case studies. Informing and inspiring entrepreneurship educators, Part I employs theoretical perspectives and practical procedures related to case teaching in entrepreneurship education. Novel and innovative case methods for entrepreneurship education are explored as well as the theoretical foundations of case-based entrepreneurship education. Part II offers 15 Nordic case studies divided into three main groups relating to becoming an entrepreneur, early-phase venture creation, and acting entrepreneurially in established organisations. Supplemented by online teaching notes, this thought-provoking book will be a valuable resource for entrepreneurship educators at higher education institutions.

Leading scholars are given the space to explore their subject in provocative ways, and map out the potential directions of travel. They are relevant but also visionary. This timely Research Agenda explores and proposes critical lines of research to support understanding of the conditions under which urban tourism contributes to the development of urban systems, and what can be done to create and conserve these conditions. Chapters highlight conceptual discussions, concrete case studies and policy reviews to address the issues surrounding the economic, environmental and social impacts of tourism on cities. Analysing the trends that have characterized urban tourism in the past, the Research Agenda looks ahead to those that may influence it in the future, including the impact of Covid-19. Chapters further offer a thorough conceptualization and innovative definitions of the phenomenon of urban tourism. The critical issue of the sustainability of tourism development in cities is also discussed in depth. The Research Agenda provides a comprehensive and up-to-date overview of the urban tourism debate, making it a critical read for urban studies and tourism scholars. The detailed case studies from across four continents will also be beneficial to policymakers and urban planners dealing with tourism development"--

    Abstract: Introduction -- Danishness and Swedishness in Academic Discourse -- Identity and Integration -- Methodology -- (Re-)Constructing Danishness and Swedishness -- Collective Identity and Integration Policy -- Conclusion.
    Abstract: This book discusses the interrelationship between practices of collective self-interpretation, in this case national identity construction, and integration policies, using the example of Denmark and Sweden. Though both countries are considered to be socially progressive and modern, not least by themselves, the author makes the novel and provocative argument that both Denmark and Sweden are caught in a (discourse) paradox when it comes to integration policy, which stands in the way of successful immigrant integration. The author uses an innovative approach to reconstruct the Danish and the Swedish national identity by using social studies schoolbooks and novels as research material, thereby adding an interdisciplinary dimension to the book. About the author Marilena Geugjes is a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Applied Sciences in Wiesbaden, Germany. She earned her doctorate in Political Science at Heidelberg University. Her research focuses on migration and integration policy, local politics, and the role of the police. .

    Abstract: Es war ein fataler Fehler von Wissenschaftlern und politischen Beobachtern, in den islamistischen Bewegungen Vertreter einer scheinbar „authentischen“ Modernisierung zu sehen und dadurch an der Delegitimierung der säkularen Kräfte in den muslimischen Ländern und Milieus als „kulturfremde Eliten“ mitzuwirken. An diese Fehldeutung knüpft auch die paradigmatische Entscheidung der Regierungen in Europa resp. in Deutschland an, bei der Integrationspolitik auf die Religion umzusatteln. Die Beiträge in diesem Band problematisieren die Fundamentalisierung des Islam unter den Migranten und die religiöse Wende in der Integrationspolitik. Der Autor Dr. Levent Tezcan ist Professor im Institut für Soziologie an der Westfälischen Wilhelms-Universität und hat den Lehrstuhl Sozialwissenschaftliche Erforschung des Islams im Europa des 20. und 21. Jahrhunderts inne.

    Abstract: Der Lebensalltag von Frauen in der Prostitution ist gekennzeichnet durch gesellschaftliche Stigmatisierung und Ausgrenzung. Die vorliegende biografische und ethnografische Studie gibt Aufschluss über die Motivlagen für den Einstieg und den komplexen Verlauf der Prostitutionstätigkeit, wobei die Grenzen zwischen Freiwilligkeit und Zwangskontexten fließend sind. Professionelle Beratung in Form von Streetwork und Einzelfallhilfe bieten Perspektiven für einen Ausstieg aus dem Prostitutionsmilieu. Die Autorin Julia Wege ist Leiterin der Beratungsstelle ,,Amalie" für Frauen in der Prostitution sowie Lehrbeauftragte für Methoden der Sozialen Arbeit an der SRH Hochschule Heidelberg. .

    Abstract: Einleitung -- Theoretische Vorüberlegungen, Methoden und Material -- Empirischer Teil: Vorstellungen von Lernenden über Globalisierung aus postkolonialer Perspektive -- Skizzen und Fragmente für eine dekoloniale politische Bildung.
    Abstract: In diesem Open-Access-Buch setzt sich Malte Kleinschmidt mit der Frage auseinander, wie politische Bildung zu einer Dekolonisierung beitragen kann. Nicht erst durch die Auseinandersetzungen um Black Lives Matter wird deutlich, dass Rassismus und Kolonialität nicht als Phänomene der Vergangenheit abgetan werden können. Anhand von der Analyse von 44 Interviews mit Schüler_innen von 9. Klassen an Hauptschulen und Gymnasien wird herausgearbeitet, wie diese Phänomene die Lebenswelt der Schüler_innen prägen. In den subjektiven Sinnbildungen der Lernenden werden zum einen koloniale Muster reproduziert, sie aber zum anderen auch massiv infrage gestellt. Diese Vorstellungen dienen als Ausgangspunkt, um dekoloniale Impulse für eine radikaldemokratisch verstandene politische Bildung zu entwickeln. Vor diesem Hintergrund diskutiert Malte Kleinschmidt dekoloniale didaktische Strategien in Bezug auf den erinnerungspolitischen Umgang mit dem historischen Kolonialismus, die koloniale Globalität der Gegenwart, die Verwerfungen des natio-ethno-kulturellen Zugehörigkeitsregimes sowie epistemische Ordnungen der Kolonialität. Der Autor Malte Kleinschmidt arbeitet als wissenschaftlicher Mitarbeiter im Arbeitsbereich Didaktik der Politischen Bildung an der Leibniz Universität Hannover und forscht dort zu den Themen Inclusive Citizenship Education, Cultural Heritage, Globalisierung, soziale Ungleichheit, Rassismuskritik, Migrationsgesellschaft und Dekolonialität.

    Abstract: Um eine vorurteilsbewusste Bildungslandschaft aktiv mitzugestalten, sind bundesdeutsche Entwicklungen bezüglich Neuzuwanderung, Sprachen und Gender global einzuordnen und zu vergleichen. In sechs Buchteilen melden sich Stimmen und Erfahrungswerte aus den Sprach-, Erziehungs- und Sozialwissenschaften und wollen der migrationsgesellschaftlichen Komplexität gerecht werden. Eine richtungsweisende Gesellschaftsanalyse eröffnet das Sammelwerk, das von einer Einleitung sowie einem Kommentar eingerahmt wird und 25 Beiträge enthält. Dieses interdisziplinäre Werk versteht sich als Fortführung von „Sprache, Flucht, Migration“ (2019) und nimmt sich der Schnittfelder Mehrsprachigkeit, Geschlechterverhältnisse sowie Menschenrechte in Flucht-, Migrations- und Bildungskonstellationen an. Die Herausgeberin Radhika Natarajan ist für die Gestaltung und Umsetzung des Projekts LeibnizWerkstatt (2015–2020) an der Leibniz School of Education zuständig und zudem Lehrbeauftragte am Deutschen Seminar der Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz Universität Hannover.

    Abstract: Eine Inter*-Diagnose stellt für die meisten Eltern eine Zäsur im Leben dar. Die gesellschaftliche und körperliche Bedeutung ist nicht in ihrem Erfahrungswissen verankert. Dieses Buch geht dem Erleben der Eltern von intergeschlechtlichen Kindern nach und zeichnet deren Prozess der Auseinandersetzung, Wissensaneignung und Handlungsermächtigung nach. Überlegungen zur Naturalisierung von Geschlecht und zur Wirklichkeitskrise sind dabei zentral. Die Autorin verknüpft zudem das Erleben mit den aktuellen gesellschaftlichen Verhältnissen und bietet so Erkenntnisse zur Krisenbewältigung an. Die Autorin Anike Krämer Sozialwissenschaftlerin, forscht und lehrt insbesondere zu den Verhältnissen von Normalisierung, Naturalisierung, Geschlecht, Wissen und Gesellschaft. Derzeit arbeitet sie am Zentrum für Geschlechterstudien/Gender Studies der Universität Paderborn.

    Abstract: Feministische Bewegungen und ihre diversen widerständigen Praktiken haben in den vergangenen Jahren wieder an Sichtbarkeit gewonnen. Neben Protest- und Aktionsformen lassen sich auch zahlreiche Praktiken finden, die das Alltagsleben feministischer Akteur*innen prägen. Charakteristisch vereinen die heterogenen feministischen Widerstände Kritik-, Interventions- und Transformationspraktiken, die das hegemoniale Geschlechterdispositiv sowie realwirksame Hervorbringungen hinterfragen, angreifen und verändern. Die Autorin untersucht in ihrer explorativen Studie verschiedene Widerstandspraktiken und analysiert deren Bedeutung für gesellschaftliche Wandlungsprozesse. Bildet Geschlecht weiterhin die zentrale Bezugsdimension innerhalb feministischer Bewegungen? Wie definieren Feminist*innen die Kategorie Geschlecht und in welchem Verhältnis stehen ein theoretisches Geschlechterwissen, die feministische Praxis und das feministische Subjekt zueinander? Die Autorin Jördis Grabow, Soziologin, forscht zur Verbindung von feministischer Praxis und Theorie sowie der Beziehung von Geschlecht, Macht und Wissen. Sie ist als Koordinatorin der LAGEN (Landesarbeitsgemeinschaft der Einrichtungen für Frauen- und Geschlechterforschung in Niedersachsen) an der Hochschule für Musik, Theater und Medien Hannover und zudem als wissenschaftliche Mitarbeiterin am Institut für Diversitätsforschung der Georg-August-Universität Göttingen tätig.

    Abstract: Einleitung -- Das moralische Individuum der Gesellschaft bei Émile Durkheim -- Das Individuum der Gesellschaft in der Systemtheorie -- Das Individuum der Sozialen Arbeit -- Schlussbemerkungen -- Literatur.
    Abstract: Die Evolution von Gesellschaft führt zu unterschiedlichen Differenzierungsformen, die immer auch als Neu-Arrangierung des Verhältnisses gelesen werden kann, welches die Gesellschaft zum Individuum einrichtet. Diese These wird im vorliegenden Buch mittels zweier Studien entlang der Werke von Émile Durkheim und Niklas Luhmann ausführlich ausgearbeitet. Beiden theoretischen Zugängen ist gemein, dass sie die Individualität des «modernen» Individuums nicht als Kompositum der Gesellschaft begreifen, vielmehr hat das Individuum seinen Standort in sich selbst und somit ausserhalb der Gesellschaft. Trotz dieser extrasozietalen Verortung bleibt Individualität gesellschaftlich verursacht, Individuen sind für die Ermöglichung und den Erhalt ihrer Individualität konstitutiv auf soziale Systeme und Inklusion angewiesen. Die Soziale Arbeit findet ihr gesellschaftliches Bezugsproblem in diesem Sachverhalt, indem sie Individualität als Kehrseite partieller Multiinklusion reflektiert und als bearbeitbare Grösse betrachtet. Ihr geht es – zumindest dann, wenn sie mehr will als nur das biologische Überleben der «Überflüssigen» zu verwalten – um das Arrangement der Inklusionen und hier um die Frage, wie Individualität auf eine gerechte Weise ermöglicht, entwickelt und stabilisiert werden kann. Der Autor Dr. Marcel Krebs, Soziologe und Sozialarbeiter HFS, ist Dozent an der Hochschule für Soziale Arbeit der Fachhochschule Nordwestschweiz FHNW.

    Abstract: Vor dem Hintergrund der erneut verschärften Wohnungsnot und anhaltender Verdrängungsprozesse, insbesondere in großen Städten, vermittelt eine soziologische Perspektive auf das Wohnen Einsichten über grundlegende Strukturen und soziale Ungleichheiten in der heutigen Gesellschaft. In diesem Handbuch werden die aktuellen Entwicklungen des Wohnens in Deutschland übersichtsartig wiedergegeben. Dazu werden verschiedene Prozesse wie die der Politik, Ökonomie, Architektur oder Technik in Bezug auf das Wohnen dargestellt. Zudem werden verschiedene Räume des Wohnens auf unterschiedlichen sozialräumlichen Maßstabsebenen von einzelnen Gebäuden über Nachbarschaften und Städte bis hin zu multilokalen Zusammenhängen beleuchtet. Ebenso wird das Wohnen in institutionellen und gemeinschaftlichen Kontexten thematisiert. Obwohl soziologisch ausgerichtet, wird dieses Handbuch von Autor*innen aus unterschiedlichen Disziplinen getragen. Die Herausgeber*innen Dr. Frank Eckardt ist Professor für sozialwissenschaftliche Stadtforschung an der Bauhaus-Universität Weimar. Dr. Sabine Meier ist Juniorprofessorin für Räumliche Entwicklung und Inklusion an der Universität Siegen.

    Abstract: "In this timely book, leading scholar Oran Young reflects on the future of the global order. Developing new lenses through which to consider needs for governance arising on a global scale, Young investigates the grand challenges of the 21st century requiring the most urgent and sustained planetary responses: protecting the Earth's climate system; controlling the eruption of pandemics; suppressing disruptive uses of cyberspace; and guiding the biotechnology revolution. Exploring how developments such as globalization, the rise of increasingly influential non-state actors, and the onset of the cyber age are eroding the institutional foundations of international society, this book considers the prospects for new forms of global order that differ in important ways from the familiar but increasingly problematic states system. Offering critical insights into the pressing need for institutional change to meet 21st century challenges, this book will prove beneficial to scholars working on matters involving governance on a global scale. Practitioners looking to connect their actions to broader analytic concerns will also find the book insightful"--

    Abstract: "Written in a clear and concise style, this Modern Guide provides a timely overview and comparison of urban challenges and national urban policies in 13 European countries, addressing key issues such as housing, urban regeneration and climate change. A team of international contributors illustrate how gaps are emerging across Europe due to the significant shifts in urban programmes. The book provides an in-depth analysis into how the European Union influences policies at a national level within its member states and how these are implemented in terms of scope and objectives. It explores how this results in fewer commonalities between countries and the gap between the rise of international urban agendas and variegated national urban policies, examining whether a more bespoke approach is better than the traditional 'one size fits all'. This insightful book will be an important read for researchers of urban studies and public policy as well as scholars with an interest in urban and regional sociology"--

    Abstract: "Elgar Research Agendas outline the future of research in a given area. Leading scholars are given the space to explore their subject in provocative ways, and map out the potential directions of travel. They are relevant but also visionary. This insightful Research Agenda examines the multidimensional relationships between heritage planning and pressing current societal challenges around climate, identity and development. Mapping future avenues for the field, it suggests new approaches to executing, studying and reflecting on heritage planning. Expert international contributors raise key questions that challenge practice and research to push for structural and institutional change. The book highlights the transformative potential of heritage planning and the responsibilities that come with such potential. Chapters explore central topics including heritage-led regeneration, cultural landscape management, food, music and tourism, using social, participatory and digital research methods. They are contextualised with questions around contestation and politization, and the changing conceptualisations of heritage planning. Spanning the domains of theoretical and empirical insights, from academic outlooks to professional challenges, this Research Agenda will be a vital resource for academics and students of urban and human geography, heritage studies, planning, urban design and architecture. Its examination of heritage planning practices will also be useful for policy makers and professionals working in the heritage planning field"--

    Abstract: Die Studie zeigt die Vielfältigkeit kinderloser Lebensentwürfe und -verläufe auf. Dabei wird insbesondere das Phänomen erworbene Kinderlosigkeit differenzierter als in vielen bisherigen Untersuchungen beleuchtet. Zudem wird der Prozesscharakter von Kinderlosigkeit deutlich herausgearbeitet und gezeigt, dass mit dem zeitlichen Abstand im Alter die Entstehung der eigenen Kinderlosigkeit zum Teil eine Umdeutung erfährt, um von den kinderlosen Älteren sinnhaft in die Biographie gefügt werden zu können. Die Autorin Katrin Alert ist derzeit Geschäftsführerin des Forschungskollegs Wohlbefinden bis ins hohe Alter (gefördert vom Ministerium für Kultur und Wissenschaft des Landes Nordrhein-Westfalen) mit zehn Doktorand*innen an der Universität zu Köln.

    Abstract: Dieses Open-Access-Buch blickt auf die Hintergründe der Politik der Freizügigkeit in Europa und diskutiert die Folgen. Die europäische Integration veränderte die Migrationsverhältnisse erheblich: Zwischen den EU-Mitgliedstaaten wurden unter dem Begriff der „Freizügigkeit“ Grenzübertritte sowie Arbeit und Niederlassung von Staatsangehörigen anderer Mitgliedsländer weitgehend erleichtert, Binnengrenzen verloren also an Bedeutung.Zugleich gewann die Frage des Umgangs mit einer gemeinsamen Außengrenze und der Migration von „Drittstaatsangehörigen“ an Gewicht. Das essential erklärt, warum Migration von außerhalb Europas zunehmend als Problem von Sicherheitspolitik verstanden wurde und wieso diese die Maßnahmen zur Ausgestaltung einer gemeinsamen Außengrenze bis heute bestimmt.

    Abstract: "This timely book evaluates international human capital policies, offering a comparative perspective on global efforts to generate new ideas and novel ways of thinking about human capital. Examining educational reforms, quality of education and links between education and socio-economic environments, chapters contrast Western experiences and perspectives with those of industrializing economies in Asia, focusing particularly on Korea and the USA. Contributors analyse trends in Korean education, including state, charter and private education, higher education and student loans and debt, and provide policy prescriptions for the improvement of higher education financing in the USA. Offering theoretical insights into the relationship between socio-economic and educational benefits for children and young people, and human capital formation, further chapters consider recent empirical evidence on disadvantaged people in the USA, before broadening the scope of analysis to consider the effects of human capital on industrial structure and productivity among OECD countries. Providing a unique and incisive understanding of human capital formation in the context of education, this book lays out guidance to scholars and researchers of human capital, particularly those concentrating on policies in Korea and the USA. It will also be useful to policymakers involved in economic and education policy"--

    Abstract: "Exploring the process of university collaboration from the perspective of small- and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), this book offers an in-depth examination of the collaboration process, dispelling the myth of the disengagement of these firms. Andrew Johnston and Robert Huggins present a thorough account of how SMEs can 'unlock the ivory tower' and gain access to university knowledge to support their own innovation. Outlining and discussing the intellectual roots of research in this field in an accessible way, the book focuses on SMEs to provide insight to an often overlooked group of firms. Chapters show how the closeness of the partners in terms of network membership, working culture and practice, and technical language drive the formation and function of these collaborative links, offering a holistic account of this from idea generation to the completion of projects. This will be an essential read for academics researching innovation and the role of universities, as well as knowledge exchange practitioners wishing to further their understanding of collaboration processes. Policymakers seeking to explore how and why SMEs engage in open innovation practices will also find this an invigorating book"--

    Abstract: "This original book is a unique and original in-depth study on how, in the past decade, Chinese State-Owned Enterprises (SOEs) have achieved technological innovation in the large infrastructure sectors. It reveals a 'new world' of Chinese innovation, showing that SOEs are willing to innovate and are also more than capable of doing so. Based on findings from first-hand data and years of observations, this book shows how the innovation ecosystem perspective incentivises and facilitates Chinese SOEs' innovation and highlights the entrepreneurial role of the government. Using the examples of UHV Power Transmission, mobile telecommunication standards, high-speed trains, and nuclear electric power, the book exhibits the complex determinants of SOEs' success in radical technological innovations within the large infrastructure sector. Chapters also demonstrate the innovation process of SOEs, the unique innovation model of China, as well as its advantages and disadvantages. Catch-Up and Radical Innovation in Chinese State-Owned Enterprises will be a useful resource for academics in research disciplines such as development studies, innovation and entrepreneurship, and Chinese studies. It will also aid entrepreneurs, businesses and managers who intend to collaborate with Chinese SOEs, to better understand the trends of SOEs' engagement in radical innovation and the potential opportunities for broadening their international collaborations"--

    Abstract: "This timely Modern Guide offers critical insights into developments in both professional and recreational sports through the lens of the economic forces that determine them. It explores the benefits of the relationship between sports and economics, highlighting ways that economic research can help to understand sports better and the ways that sport provides opportunities to test economic theories. With both theoretical and empirical chapters, the book looks at the development of European sports economics over the last 20 years, the relationship between competitive balance and attendance, and the potential economic impact of sports events. Chapters further examine specific issues in sports from an economic perspective, including labour market restrictions on professional leagues, refereeing, team dynamics, the importance of good players versus good results and the sports analytics revolution due to big data. The use of state-of-the-art empirical methods makes this Modern Guide a crucial read for economists and sports science researchers looking to better understand both the relationship between the two fields and their own area of research. Sports policymakers will also appreciate the in-depth discussion on a range of different recreational and professional sports"--

Gdpr compliant processing of big data in small business.
    Abstract: "This important book considers the ways in which small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) can thrive in the age of big data. To address this central issue from multiple viewpoints, the editors introduce a collection of experiences, insights, and guidelines from a variety of expert researchers, each of whom provides a piece to solve this puzzle. Contributions address the limitations faced by SMEs in their access to data and demonstrate that the key to overcoming this issue is to be aware of these limitations, to work within them, and to use them to think creatively about how to overcome obstacles in new ways. They discuss Artificial Intelligence, revenue blueprinting, GDPR compliance and other key topics related to the relationships between SMEs and data. Offering ideas to inspire big data-driven success by SMEs making smaller investments, the book argues that there must be a place for "ordinary" data-driven journeys that are available to firms of any size. Stimulating further thought and action, Big Data in Small Business will be of great interest to academics, researchers and practitioners in areas such as strategic management, organizational and innovation studies, marketing and sales. The ideas and information in this book will help fill knowledge gaps related to important aspects of capabilities, functions, and transformations of big data that drive business growth"--

Popular culture and place-associated products in country image / Candace L. White.
    Abstract: "This book integrates new thinking on the image, marketing, and branding of places at all levels, from town squares to cities and countries, and of the products and peoples associated with them, thereby bridging the 'country' and 'place' silos in place-related research and practice. Insightful contributions from top scholars reflect fresh theorizing and provide a critical appraisal of conventional wisdom by juxtaposing intriguing contexts, questioning commonplace practices, and challenging methodologies and theoretical assumptions. Chapters explore interdependencies among residents, visitors, brand managers, and consumers; image effects of place and social identity, cross-border acquisitions, popular culture exports, and sporting mega-events; country-of-origin research, cross-cultural consumer behaviour, international marketing, destination branding, and brand modelling; and cutting-edge methodological approaches and managerial best practices in place marketing. The book's interdisciplinary know-how and approach makes it an invaluable and comprehensive reference for researchers, managers, consultants, and students alike, in areas from marketing, place management, international business, and tourism to communications, social psychology, urban geography, and regional economics"--

    Abstract: "Who captures the value created in global supply chains? How should gaps in value capture among participants be amended and by whom? Focusing on the global apparel supply chain and employing value creation as a yardstick for evaluation of value capture, this book documents disturbing misalignments between value creation and value capture among global brands, manufacturers, labor, and consumers. The authors posit that the failure of both markets and governments to adequately distribute the value created by global value chains calls for different mechanisms to address this challenge. They develop a novel approach based on the logic of the interdependencies germane to the co-specialized nature of value chains. These interdependencies afford participants power to create markets for social justice in which behavior that drives outcomes towards adequate value distribution is economically and socially rewarded. These dynamics turn GVCs into their own de-facto 'regulators' with the power to self-correct for distributional distortions. The contributions of the book are at the center of current debates in policy milieu, academic circles and corporate boards regarding human rights, social inequality, and the role of the private sector in advancing social goals. They received renewed importance in contemporary discussions regarding the future of global value chains as the predominant mode of organizing value creation and the governance challenges they raise in a complex global world"--

    Abstract: "Amidst rapid and fundamental shifts in the economic, geo-political, technological, and societal landscape, this cutting-edge book makes the timeless case that research can be informed by problems in the 'real world' and make important contributions to theory and practice. Throughout the book, the authors argue that there is a 'sweet spot' where both scholarly and practical research can be done simultaneously. It offers readers insightful and rich examples of how this can be achieved, including frameworks, examples, ideas, and tools which will guide researchers in the lifelong task of defining themselves as researchers and crafting their own unique research practice. It also features critical insights into careers oriented toward having impact on practice, reflective questions that make the principles personal and relevant, and a framework to help develop the network of connections required for research to impact practice. Speaking to the graduate student in all of us, How to Do Relevant Research will greatly benefit Ph.D. students and early career academics who gravitate towards this kind of research but worry about its feasibility and instrumentality, mid-to-late career scholars who do research for practice and teach young scholars how to do it, and to researchers in a think-tank or consultancy who want their work to be scientifically sound and practically useful"--

    Abstract: "This insightful book traces the evolution of corporate power in the United States, from social control over corporate power under early state laws to the modern liberation of the corporation serving primarily private purposes. It illustrates how the transition of attitudes towards corporations and dynamic changes in public policy have ushered in an age of financial fragility, income inequality and macroeconomic instability. The book employs an evolutionary methodology to consider the role of the corporation in the US economy, and how that role as a tool for public purposes, defined by special charters, changed with the widening of markets and increasing industrial capacity for mass production. Evaluating the stages of capitalist development, chapters demonstrate how the co-evolution of law, economics and finance altered economic organization, leading to the evolution of core economic concepts such as capital, income and resources. The book examines the transition of corporate purpose towards generating wealth and enhancing profits in the early twentieth century and analyzes recent trends through illuminating case studies in financialization. It concludes with crucial insights into the future of the corporation, offering potential pathways for economists to intervene and address the systemic problems that are endemic to the modern financial era. A rousing and provocative call to arms for modern economists, this book is key reading for scholars and researchers of economics, particularly those focusing on the evolution of economic and business institutions and its impact on the social fabric of the US. Practitioners and policymakers will also benefit from its empirical perspectives on financialization"--

    Abstract: "Artificial Intelligence (AI) is being rapidly introduced into the workplace, creating debate around what AI means for our work and organizations. This book gives grounded counterweight to provocative newspaper headlines by using in-depth case studies of eight organizations' experiences of implementing and using AI, providing readers with a solid understanding of what is actually happening in practice. Critical yet constructive, the authors address the challenges of implementing AI: organizing for data, testing and validating, algorithmic brokering, and changing work. Using a combination of existing literature and thorough practical examples, they provide answers to questions such as: What data do I need? When is a system good enough to actually take over tasks? And how can my employees be prepared for working with AI? The book presents four recommendations for WISE management of AI, requiring work-related insights, interdisciplinary knowledge, sociotechnical change processes, and ethical awareness. Offering insight into the unique characteristics of AI in organizations, this book will be essential reading for scholars of business and management, data analytics and information systems, technology and innovation, and computer science. With practical recommendations for managing the challenges of AI, it will also provide business managers with reflections to improve their own AI development and implementation processes"--

    Abstract: "Judgment and Leadership presents original thinking and addresses age-old concerns regarding the relationship between judgment and leadership. These two concepts are inseparable. Judgment guides every action that a leader takes and underlies every thought, emotion, or justification that leaders form. This volume extends the study of judgment and leadership across disciplinary and conceptual boundaries. For the first time, the most original and influential thinkers on judgment and leadership are brought together in a single volume and they represent a diverse set of disciplines, including critical studies, psychology, political theory, international policy, adult learning theory, management and organizational studies, philosophy, cross-cultural studies, and neuroscience. The result is an engaging look at one of the most important issues facing organizations, politics, and society: leaders and their judgment. The book describes the challenges and opportunities that leaders face when confronted with political, social, and business challenges and offers an insightful and comprehensive review of leadership and its role in crisis. The authors explore how a leader's actions and judgments are shaped by their experiences. It is a highly accessible account of how leaders learn and practice judgment and a guide for leaders faced with intense and challenging problems Scholars studying leadership, judgment, decision making, critical thinking, or problem solving seeking the latest original thinking on the topic of leadership and judgment as well as educators seeking to develop their students' knowledge about judgment from a multi-disciplinary perspective will find this volume an invaluable resource as will leadership trainers, educators, coaches, and human resource professionals seeking to improve and develop leaders"--

    Abstract: Südkorea und Japan haben es bis heute nicht geschafft, die Kriegs- und Besatzungsvergangenheit (1910-45) aufzuarbeiten. Seit Jahrzehnten fordern Trostfrauen, ehemalige Zwangsprostituierte des japanischen Militärs, eine offizielle Entschuldigung und Entschädigung von Japan. Beide Staaten führen einen Kampf der politischen Interessen. Yaena Kwon vergleicht das südkoreanisch-japanische Verhältnis mit Deutschland und Polen. Eine langfristige Annäherung zwischen verfeindeten Nachbarstaaten, so zeigt der Vergleich, muss über eine bilaterale Vergangenheitsbewältigung erfolgen. Welche Erkenntnisse über den deutsch-polnischen Umgang mit Entschädigungs- und Territorialfragen können zu einer südkoreanisch-japanischen Vergangenheitsbewältigung beitragen? Die Analyse liefert wichtige Erkenntnisse über die Funktion des kollektiven Gedächtnisses und einer bilateralen Erinnerungspolitik.

    Abstract: Die Autorinnen und Autoren des vorliegenden Sammelbandes untersuchen Umbrüche, Krisen und Widerstände in der Geschichte sowie der Gegenwart der Türkei. Im Zentrum steht die Frage, wie gesellschaftlicher und politischer Wandel in Kunst und Literatur verhandelt wird, welchen Einfluss er auf transnationale Migrationsbewegungen hat, wie er den urbanen Raum verändert und welche Rolle akademische Freiheit dabei spielt. Alleine drei Militärputsche formten die Geschichte des Landes in der zweiten Hälfte des 20. Jahrhunderts. Die anschließend einsetzende neoliberale Agenda der 1980er Jahre hatte nicht nur wirtschaftliche, sondern weitreichende soziale und kulturelle Folgen. Der Band verfolgt einen interdisziplinären und epochenübergreifenden Ansatz, der einerseits Wechselwirkungen zwischen Kultur und Politik untersucht und andererseits gesellschaftliche Strukturen in ihrer historischen Veränderlichkeit beleuchtet. Der Inhalt Kultur und Gesellschaft Migration und Transnationalismus Urbane Räume Akademische Freiheit Die Zielgruppen Dozierende und Studierende der Politik-, Kultur-, Geschichts- und Islamwissenschaft sowie der Soziologie, Turkologie und Anthropologie Expertinnen und Experten der (politischen) Praxis Die Herausgeberinnen und der Herausgeber Johanna Chovanec, M.A., Universität Wien Gabriele Cloeters M.A., Universität Hamburg Dr. Onur İnal, Universität Wien Dr. Charlotte Joppien, Universität Hamburg Urszula Woźniak M.A., Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin.

    Abstract: Der Inhalt Die GASP der EU zur Palästina-Frage im Zeitraum von 2000 bis 2012 -- Die Selbstbeschränkung der EU-Außenpolitik in dieser Frage -- Die Wahrnehmung der GASP durch die Interviewten.
    Abstract: Es gibt zahlreiche Untersuchungen über die gemeinsame Außen- und Sicherheitspolitik (GASP) der EU hinsichtlich des israelisch-palästinensischen Konflikts, aber bisher keine, die den arabischen Blick auf diese Politik thematisiert. Um die arabische Perzeption dieser Politik zu verstehen, erschließt Malek Harba die arabischsprachige Literatur.

    Abstract: Klappentext: Je detaillierter eine Organisation die Motive ihrer Unterstützerinnen und Unterstützer kennt, desto besser kann sie sie langfristig binden. Dabei ist es wichtig zu verstehen, dass Zuhören nicht gleich Zustimmen ist. Stephanie Neumann beschreibt in diesem essential die von Marshall Rosenberg entwickelte Methode der „Gewaltfreien Kommunikation“ (GFK) – ein Handlungskonzept, in dem es darum geht, die Gefühle und Bedürfnisse der Gesprächspartnerin oder des Gesprächspartners zu verstehen, damit Vertrauen entstehen kann. Dies ist in der Kommunikation mit Spenderinnen und Spendern eine Grundvoraussetzung, da eine Organisation nur mit deren Unterstützung existieren kann. Wenn die Mitarbeitenden der Organisation verstehen, was ihre Spenderinnen und Spender bewegt, werden sie erfolgreich Mittel generieren. Die Zielgruppen: Haupt- und ehrenamtliche Mitarbeitende von spendensammelnden Organisationen, die Kontakt mit Unterstützerinnen und Unterstützern haben. Die Autorin: Dr. Stephanie Neumann arbeitet für die Diakonie Deutschland und baut dort das Fundraising auf. Sie hat sich an der Fundraising Akademie zur Fundraising-Managerin ausbilden lassen und ist Mitglied im Beirat des Deutschen Fundraising-Verbandes.

    Abstract: Die Geschichte der Fürsorge -- Zur aktuellen Relevanz der Fürsorge für Menschen mit komplexen Behinderungen -- Über die gegenwärtige Gestalt der Fürsorge.
    Abstract: Fürsorge ist eine existenzielle menschliche Kategorie. Fachkräfte und Wissenschaftler, die sich mit besonders vulnerablen Personengruppen auseinandersetzen, müssten sich daher intensiv und reflektiert mit der Vielschichtigkeit, den Zielen, Herausforderungen und Gefahren von Fürsorge(beziehungen) befassen. Sophia Falkenstörfer spürt dem Themenkomplex der Fürsorge historisch nach, um grundlegende Erkenntnisse der Fürsorge als (Hilfe-)System, als Idee und als Begriff zu erhalten. Darauf aufbauend analysiert sie die Fürsorge für Menschen mit komplexen Behinderungen vor dem Hintergrund des gegenwärtigen Sozialsystems, um anschließend zeitgenössische Fürsorgetheorien aufzuzeigen. Sie legt dar, wie sich Fürsorge im Kontext von Fürsorgebeziehungen neu denken und definieren lässt, sodass sich der Begriff in der Folge für theoretische Auseinandersetzungen und praktische Überlegungen für Menschen (mit komplexen Behinderungen) eignet. Der Inhalt ● Die Geschichte der Fürsorge ● Zur aktuellen Relevanz der Fürsorge für Menschen mit komplexen Behinderungen ● Über die gegenwärtige Gestalt der Fürsorge Die Zielgruppen ● Dozierende, Studierende und Fachkräfte der Heil-, Behinderten- und Sonderpädagogik, Sozialen Arbeit, Sozialpädagogik, Pflegewissenschaften, Medizin und Therapie Die Autorin Sophia Falkenstörfer ist akademische Mitarbeiterin im Förderschwerpunkt geistige Entwicklung am Institut für sonderpädagogische Förderschwerpunkte an der Pädagogischen Hochschule Ludwigsburg. .

    Abstract: Was ist ein Theorietransfer? -- Das Wort Vision in der Politik -- Was ist schwache, starke und moderate politische Kreativität? -- Das Modell der 4Ps der Kreativität -- Visionen bei der Konzipierung und der Realisierung politischer Projekte?.
    Abstract: Paula Scholemann überträgt in einem Gedankenexperiment das begriffliche Netzwerk der Kreativitätsforschung auf die Politikwissenschaft. Politik definiert sie als das Ergebnis von Kreativität. Die innovative These ist, dass wir Kreativität brauchen, um die Demokratie weiter zu entwickeln. Die Stärke der Demokratie ist, dass sie Räume für Kreativität lässt. Und diese kreativen Räume sollten auch dafür genutzt werden, politische Kreativität und politische Visionen zu entwickeln, um Antworten auf die sich stellenden Probleme zu finden – wie die Digitalisierung, die Überbevölkerung und den Klimawandel. Die Vision als Bestandteil von Kreativität wird im kreativen Prozess verwendet. In jeder Utopie steckt eine Vision, aber aus einer Vision können andere Dinge werden als (nur) Utopien. Der Inhalt Was ist ein Theorietransfer? Das Wort Vision in der Politik Was ist schwache, starke und moderate politische Kreativität? Das Modell der 4Ps der Kreativität Visionen bei der Konzipierung und der Realisierung politischer Projekte? Die Zielgruppen Dozierende und Studierende der Fachgebiete Geschichte, Medienwissenschaft, Politikwissenschaft, Cultural Studies und Sportwissenschaft Politiker und Politikerinnen, Change-Manager und -Managerinnen, Kreative Die Autorin Paula Scholemann studierte am Trinity College Dublin und an der SciencesPo Paris. Sie lebt seit 2017 in Frankreich und arbeitet als freie Autorin und Politikwissenschaftlerin. Seit 2008 bietet sie Seminare an. Ihre Themen sind Kreativität, Politikwissenschaft, Fremdsprachen und Didaktik.

    Abstract: Raum und Gedächtnis der Deponie -- Herausforderungen des Anthropozäns -- Praktiken des Archivierens und Recycelns -- Texte der Deponie.
    Abstract: Die Deponie ist eine paradoxe, risikobehaftete Einrichtung. Die moderne Gesellschaft erhofft sich durch sie, weggeworfene, unbrauchbare oder gefährliche Dinge, Stoffe oder Substanzen ein für alle Mal sich selbst über-lassen zu können. Zugleich erfordern die entsprechenden Ablagerungsstellen erhebliche Aufmerksamkeit und technischen Aufwand. Auch wenn die Deponie ihre Legitimation aus der Annahme zieht, den auf ihr angesammelten Müll zu domestizieren, ist sie trotz aller Versicherungen und Vorkehrungen nämlich eines gerade nicht: abgeschlossen. Die Beiträge dieses Bandes nehmen diese Beobachtung zum Ausgangspunkt. Sie fragen nach den ökologisch problematischen und ästhetisch produktiven Implikationen der Anhäufung beseitigter Materialitäten und deren Verknüpfungen mit literarisch-kulturellen Diskursen. In exemplarischen Probebohrungen eröffnen sie Perspektiven einer literatur-, medien- und kulturwissenschaftlichen Untersuchung der Deponie. Zwei bisher eher getrennt voneinander operierende akademische Wissensbereiche werden dazu zusammengebracht: Studien auf dem Gebiet des Ecocriticism mit solchen der kulturwissenschaftlichen Analyse von Praktiken und Poetiken des Sammelns und Archivierens. Die Deponie wird so sichtbar als ein dynamisch-agentielles Konglomerat aus sozialen Praktiken, Diskursen und Materialitäten, mit denen Narrative u.a. aus Literatur, Fotografie, Film und Computerspielen verwoben sind. Der Inhalt · Raum und Gedächtnis der Deponie · Herausforderungen des Anthropozäns · Praktiken des Archivierens und Recycelns · Texte der Deponie Der Herausgeber Dr. David-Christopher Assmann ist Wissenschaftlicher Mitarbeiter am Institut für deutsche Literatur und ihre Didaktik der Goethe-Universität Frankfurt.
    Note: "Fast alle Beiträge dieses Bandes sind aus der Tagung „Narrative der Deponie. Literatur- und kulturwissenschaftliche Perspektiven auf eine Entsorgungspraxis“ hervorgegangen, die im Oktober 2018 am Institut für deutsche Literatur und ihre Didaktik der Goethe-Universität Frankfurt am Main stattgefunden hat" -- Seite 11

    Abstract: Die meisten Völker der Welt begreifen die Schöpfung als unvollkommen und die Kultur als den Versuch, ihre Mängel auszugleichen. Jedes sieht sich dabei an der Spitze der Entwicklung, so dass alles Andersartige als Ausdruck der Abartigkeit erscheint (Nostrozentrismus). Ein Schlüsselproblem im Zusammenleben der Menschen bilden teils biographische, mehr aber noch durch Kontakte ausgelöste Zustandswechselprozesse, da sie zu abweichenden Entwicklungen führen können. Dem sucht man durch Kanonisierung und Ritualisierung des Prozessverlaufs zu begegnen. Die Zielgruppen Studierende und Lehrende sozialwissenschaftlicher Studiengänge, Ethnologie und Kulturanthropologie Der Autor Klaus E. Müller war Professor für Ethnologie an der Universität Frankfurt am Main.

    Abstract: Das Überleben moderner Gesellschaften hängt davon ab, ob es ihnen gelingt, Strategien zur Lösung von wicked problems wie der Übernutzung natürlicher Ressourcen, Zerstörung der Biossphäre oder Flucht und Vertreibung zu entwickeln. In einer demokratietheoretischen Analyse zum Verhältnis von Demokratie und Ethik zeigt Sven Grundmann, dass ein solches Projekt nur auf Grundlage eines agonistischen, streitbaren, widerstandsfähigen Demokratiemodells gelingen kann. Die notwendige Resilienz lässt sich durch progressiv-inkrementelle Wandlungsprozesse erzielen, die wiederum institutionalisierte Formen ethischer Reflexion in der politischen Entscheidungsvorbereitung und -findung voraussetzen.

    Abstract: Die vorliegende Studie von Cindy Roitsch geht der Frage nach, welche Rolle die kommunikative Grenzziehung in der medienvermittelten Kommunikation junger Frauen und Männer spielt. Auf Basis einer Aneignungsstudie mit 60 Frauen und Männern zwischen 16 und 30 Jahren zeichnet sie ein differenzier-tes Bild über die scheinbar unbegrenzten medialen Möglichkeiten. Dabei zeigt die Studie einerseits, dass die jungen Menschen ihre umfassende Vernetzung in vielerlei Hinsicht als Herausforderung sehen, andererseits, dass sie kreative und vielfältige Praktiken entwickeln, mit diesen Herausforderungen in ihrem Alltag umzugehen. Der Inhalt • Von der Nichtnutzung zur kommunikativen Grenzziehung • Die Abgrenzung von Sinn- und Handlungsbereichen • Herausforderungen und Praktiken kommunikativer Grenzziehung Die Autorin Cindy Roitsch ist wissenschaftliche Mitarbeiterin am ZeMKI (Zentrum für Medien-, Kommunikations- und Informationsforschung) der Universität Bre-men und forscht u.a. im Rahmen des SPP 1505 „Mediatisierte Welten“ zur Mediatisierung von Vergemeinschaftung, Mediengenerationen und zur kom-munikativen Grenzziehung.
