    Abstract: This book provides the first detailed discussion of domestic violence and abuse in same sex relationships, offering a unique comparison between this and domestic violence and abuse experienced by heterosexual women and men. It examines how experiences of domestic violence and abuse may be shaped by gender, sexuality and age, including whether and how victims/survivors seek help, and asks, what's love got to do with it? A pioneering methodology, using both quantitative and qualitative research, provides a reliable and valid approach that challenges the heteronormative model in domestic violence research, policy and practice. The authors develops a new framework of analysis - practices of love - to explore empirical data

    Keywords: Asians -- Europe ; Immigrants -- Europe -- Social conditions ; Europe -- Emigration and immigration -- Economic aspects ; Europe -- Emigration and immigration -- Social aspects ; Electronic books ; Electronic books
    Abstract: This volume explores the renewal of Asian migration to Europe that began in the late 18th century while still in the frame of the colonial regime. It counters the construction of an »unchanging East« versus a »dynamic West« developed in the 19th century; of static, rooted populations versus adventurous young men seeking opportunities afar (the producers of this cliché overlooked migrating women). These essays provide analyses of some of the migrants from the different societies of Asia in Europe. They focus on migrants from East and South Asia and explore their different experiences in Europe

    Abstract: Die erste umfassende Studie zum ersten enzyklopädisch ausgerichteten natur- und weltkundlichen Sachbuch im deutschsprachigen Raum. Friedrich J. Bertuchs »Bilderbuch für Kinder« erschien zwischen 1790 und 1830 in 237 Einzelheften mit 1.186 Kupfertafeln. Wie auch andere wissenschaftliche Werke der Zeit brachte es die neuesten Entdeckungen in die bürgerliche Lebenswelt. Damit war es eines der ersten und umfangreichsten enzyklopädisch ausgerichteten Sachbücher in Deutschland. Hatte Basedows philanthropisches »Elementarwerk« (1770) allgemein bekannte Dinge und Begebenheiten nahegebracht, setzte Bertuch weitgehend Exotisches und Unbekanntes ins Bild. Silvy Chakkalakal verbindet eine kulturanalytische Auseinandersetzung mit den erkenntnistheoretischen Debatten über sinnliche Wahrnehmung, anschauende Erkenntnis und kindliche Sehweisen. Anhand der Bilder untersucht sie den zeitgenössischen Entwicklungsgedanken der Anthropologie, Pädagogik, Naturgeschichte, Geologie und der frühen Ethnographie. Mit der Erkenntnis, dass deren Wissenschaftsgeschichte ohne Visualisierungen nicht zu verstehen ist, leistet die Untersuchung einen wichtigen Beitrag zur Bild- und Wahrnehmungsgeschichte um 1800. Silvy Chakkalakal ist wissenschaftliche Assistentin am Seminar für Kulturwissenschaft und Europäische Ethnologie an der Universität Basel. Sie hat in Tübingen, London und Berlin Europäische Ethnologie und Allgemeine Vergleichende Literaturwissenschaft studiert und am Institut für Europäische Ethnologie der Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin promoviert. 2010 war sie Visiting Research Collaborator am History of Science-Program und am Department of History der Princeton University.

    Abstract: Main description: This book compellingly argues how and why art and marketing often look alike today. Combining the history and theory of art with theories of contemporary culture and marketing, Maria A. Slowinska chooses three angles (space, object, persona) to bridge present and past, aesthetic appearance and theoretical discourse, and traditional divisions between art and commerce. Beyond both pessimistic and celebratory rhetorics, »Art/Commerce« explains contemporary phenomena in which the aestheticization of commerce and the commercialization of aesthetics converge.

    Abstract: Slavery is not a crime confined to the far reaches of history. It is an injustice that continues to entrap twenty-seven million people across the globe. Laura Murphy offers close to forty survivor narratives from Cambodia, Ghana, Lebanon, Macedonia, Mexico, Russia, Thailand, Ukraine, and the United States, detailing the horrors of a system that forces people to work without pay and against their will, under the threat of violence, with little or no means of escape. Representing a variety of circumstances in diverse contexts, these survivors are the Frederick Douglasses, Sojourner Truths

    Abstract: Experimental Film and Anthropology' urges a new dialogue between two seemingly separate fields. The book explores the practical and theoretical challenges arising from experimental film for anthropology, and vice versa, through a number of contact zones: trance, emotions and the senses, materiality and time, non-narrative content and montage. Experimental film and cinema are understood in this book as broad, inclusive categories covering many technical formats and historical traditions, to investigate the potential for new common practices. An international range of renowned anthropologists, film scholars and experimental film-makers engage in vibrant discussion and offer important new insights for all students and scholars involved in producing their own films

    Abstract: In Identity, Nationalism, and Cultural Heritage under Siege , Fatme Myuhtar-May makes a case for the recognition of Pomak heritage by presenting five stories from the past and present of the Rhodope Muslims in Bulgaria as examples of a distinct Pomak culture. The stories range from the Christianisation during the Balkan Wars of 1912-1913 and the forced communist renaming of the Pomaks in the 1970s, to their fascinating wedding rituals and historic figures. Each of the five narratives contains its own storyline and serves as a prominent example of Pomak heritage, from the author's perspective.

    Abstract: Culture is seen as a source for the development of society. Task of cultural policy is therefore to create and support structures that promote mobilization of creativity of the people and thus ensure welfare, innovation and pluralism. Such relationships have been discussed at the level of UNESCO for the past forty years. Within Germany and Europe as well as on the African continent experiences and initiatives are increasing in order to put discourse on cultural policies into practice. There is a need to provide a forum for the exchange of concepts and to identify the state of the art of theory

    Abstract: The Formation of Kurdishness in Turkey examines political violence, the politics of fear and the Kurdish experience of pain through an analysis of life stories, personal narratives and testimonies of Kurdish subjects in contemporary Turkey. It traces the physical and psychological impacts of the war between the state security forces and the PKK (Kurdistan Workers' Party) guerrillas in the last three decades, in Kurdish populated areas in the south-eastern part of Turkey. Focusing on the instrumentalization of violence, the ensuing and manufactured culture of fear, gendered experiences of state

    Abstract: Moderne Wahlkämpfe sind auf Medien angewiesen, auf die Presse und das Radio, besonders auf das Fernsehen und zunehmend auf Internet und soziale Netzwerke. Das gilt sowohl für die Parteien wie auch für die Wähler. Für die Wähler bieten die Medien eine wichtige Informations- und Entscheidungsgrundlage. Für die Parteien und ihre Kandidaten sind sie eine unverzichtbare Plattform, um sich öffentlich darzustellen, sie sind Werbeträger und Einflussmittel, um Stimmen zu gewinnen. Medien sind auch politische Akteure mit eigenen Interessen, die mit ihrer Berichterstattung und Meinungsäußerung den Verlauf der Kampagne und das Wahlergebnis beeinflussen können. Dieser Band behandelt wissenschaftliche Erkenntnisse und aktuelle Befunde zur Wahlkommunikation der herkömmlichen Massenmedien, der neuen Medien und der von den Parteien eingesetzten Werbemedien. Er erläutert die Gründe dafür, dass die Medien ein bestimmtes Wahlkampfbild vermitteln, und er erklärt, wann sie das Wahlergebnis beeinflussen. Prof. Dr. Winfried Schulz ist em. Professor für Kommunikations- und Politikwissenschaft der Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg.

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

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

    Abstract: Anthropology has long had a vexed relationship with literature, and nowhere has this been more acutely felt than in France, where most ethnographers, upon returning from the field, write not one book, but two: a scientific monograph and a literary account. In Far Afield-brought to English-language readers here for the first time-Vincent Debaene puzzles out this phenomenon, tracing the contours of anthropology and literature's mutual fascination and the ground upon which they meet in the works of thinkers from Marcel Mauss and Georges Bataille to Claude Lévi-Strauss and Roland Barthes.

It examines similarities and differences in these processes in a group of established world cities located in the global circuits of tourism. The cities featured are Berlin, New York, London, Paris, and Sydney. In these cities experienced city visitors are contributing to the 'discovery' of new places to visit. Many neighbourhoods close to the historic centre and to traditional attractions offer the mix of cultural differen

The research in this subfield has been wide-ranging, including works in sociology, gender studies, anthropology, political science, social policy, history, and public health. As a result, the interdisciplinary nature of race, gender, and class and its ability to reach a large audience has been part of its appeal.

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

    Abstract: Increasingly significant as mediators of spatial identity and meaning, leisure, tourism, culture and heritage are only now beginning to be located within the rapidly evolving discourses of poststructuralist geographies.Exploring the influence of leisure and tourism on the production, representation and consumption of landscape, the first half of this important book focuses on different ways of 'seeing' or representing landscape, whereas the second half examines different forms of productive consumption in leisure and tourism. Both symbolic and material spaces of leisure and tourism are also ex

    Parallel Title: Print version The Bling Dynasty
    DDC: 305.5234
    Keywords: Electronic books
    Abstract: Why the luxury market's fate rests in Chinese walletsThe media has negatively focused on the Chinese political administration clamping down on gifting. Observers have come to doubt the strength of Chinese consumption as the key driver for luxury. The Bling Dynastyillustrates how doubts about Chinese consumption are ill-founded and Chinese luxury demand is on the cusp of becoming dominant.This book contains the research and expert views companies need to understand and address the new challenges posed by this dominance. Each chapter brings a different perspective, covering complex aspects of luxury consumption, with illustrations and real-world examples that support the research. Readers will gain insights through interviews with brand executives, retailers, experts, and consumers.As an economic heavyweight, China is fast realizing its role in the luxury market. Chinese consumers should be accounting for more than a third of the global luxury market today, and half, if not more, in ten year's time. The Bling Dynastyruns counter to the conventional wisdom that expanding sectors become more global. Luxury is actually becoming over-dependent on Chinese sales.Readers will:Understand how Western brands developed in Asia and the challenges they are met with, notably ubiquityLearn why Chinese are purchasing luxury items abroad and what it means for the future of the sectorGain insights on why there are no Chinese luxury brands challenging Western modelsRealize that Chinese consumers are becoming similar to their American peers and that luxury competition goes way beyond pre-conceptionsChina's big spenders are increasingly mobile and this is affecting key markets. The Bling Dynastyprovides new research and a comprehensive look at the booming business of luxury and the Chinese wallet.

    Abstract: Without denying the difficulties that confront migrants and their distant kin, this volume highlights the agency of family members in transnational processes of care, in an effort to acknowledge the transnational family as an increasingly common family form and to question the predominantly negative conceptualisations of this type of family. It re-conceptualises transnational care as a set of activities that circulates between home and host countries - across generations - and fluctuates over the life course, going beyond a focus on mother-child relationships to include multidirectional exchanges across generations and between genders. It highlights, in particular, how the sense of belonging in transnational families is sustained by the reciprocal, though uneven, exchange of caregiving, which binds members together in intergenerational networks of reciprocity and obligation, love and trust that are simultaneously fraught with tension, contest and relations of unequal power. The chapters that make up this volume cover a rich array of ethnographic case studies including analyses of transnational families who circulate care between developing nations in Africa, Latin America and Asia to wealthier nations in North America, Europe and Australia. There are also examples of intra- and extra- European, Australian and North American migration, which involve the mobility of both the unskilled and working class as well as the skilled middle and aspirational classes.

    Abstract: Dass kulturelle Differenzen und darauf basierendes, wechselseitiges Nicht- Verstehen verantwortlich sind fur soziale und politische Konflikte, gehort zu den Standarduberzeugungen unserer Welt. Diese wiederum beruhen auf einem Kulturverstandnis, das Kulturen als Substanzen missversteht und glaubt, diese Substanzen wie je singulare Entitaten miteinander vergleichen zu konnen. Eine solche kulturalistisch verzerrte Sichtweise verdeckt jedoch die eigentlichen Ursachen der meisten Kommunikationsprobleme: den Ursprung, die Wirkungsweise und die Labilitat von Kommunikationsmaximen und existenziellen Hypothesen. ? Unsere gesellschaftliche Wirklichkeit: die pluralistische Verfasstheit moderner Gesellschaften, zwingt die Sozialwissenschaften, (1) die Substanzillusionen aufzugeben; (2) sich erneut den Grundlagen kommunikativen Handelns zuzuwenden und (3) aus dieser Zuwendung empirisch basierte Konsequenzen zu erarbeiten.

    Abstract: Mohawk Interruptus is a bold challenge to dominant thinking in the fields of Native studies and anthropology. Combining political theory with ethnographic research among the Mohawks of Kahnawà:ke, a reserve community in what is now southwestern Quebec, Audra Simpson examines their struggles to articulate and maintain political sovereignty through centuries of settler colonialism. The Kahnawà:ke Mohawks are part of the Haudenosaunee or Iroquois Confederacy. Like many Iroquois peoples, they insist on the integrity of Haudenosaunee governance and refuse American or Canadian citizenship. Audra Simpson thinks through this politics of refusal, which stands in stark contrast to the politics of cultural recognition. Tracing the implications of refusal, Simpson argues that one sovereign political order can exist nested within a sovereign state, albeit with enormous tension around issues of jurisdiction and legitimacy. Finally, Simpson critiques anthropologists and political scientists, whom, she argues, have too readily accepted the assumption that the colonial project is complete. Belying that notion, Mohawk Interruptus calls for and demonstrates more robust and evenhanded forms of inquiry into indigenous politics in the teeth of settler governance.

    Abstract: Der Anerkennungsbegriff ist heute zum Schlusselbegriff der Ethik geworden und hat als ein solcher zunehmend auch im sozial- und erziehungswissenschaftlichen Diskurs an Bedeutung gewonnen. Dabei gilt Anerkennung vielfach als normative Richtschnur, mit der sich (padagogische) Beziehungen und Praxen bewerten lassen. Vor diesem Hintergrund unternimmt die Arbeit eine Spurensuche zur Anerkennungskategorie. Mittels Rekonstruktion verschiedener Anerkennungskonzepte werden Bedeutungsgehalte und Dimensionen der ?Anerkennung' herausgearbeitet und auf sozial- und erziehungswissenschaftliche Problemstellungen bezogen. Die Studien loten die Reichweite jeweiliger Anerkennungsverstandnisse aus und entfalten im Ruckgriff auf macht- und alteritatstheoretische Positionen ein analytisch justiertes Verstandnis von Anerkennung, mit dem zugleich neue Perspektiven auf den ethischen wie den padagogischen Gehalt der Anerkennungskategorie eroffnet werden.

    Abstract: "The globalization of food consumption has often been equated with the loss of culinary traditions and the homogenization of cuisines. By contrast, the anthropologists, historians and sociologists contributing to this collection reveal both rapid changes and also profound and sometimes surprising continuities in local food consumption practices in the nineteenth, twentieth and twenty-first centuries, and use these to shed light on shifting social boundaries and cultural identities. The volume combines ethnographic, historical and comparative analyses, situating local practices of eating, cooking and sharing food within transnational processes and contexts. In so doing, the volume celebrates and furthers approaches developed in Jack Goody's seminal 1982 book, Cooking, Cuisine and Class: A Study in Comparative Sociology. With studies of China, India, West Africa, South America and Europe, the book provides a truly global perspective on the social dynamics of food consumption in the modern world"--

    Abstract: Anthropology has long had a vexed relationship with literature, and nowhere has this been more acutely felt than in France, where most ethnographers, upon returning from the field, write not one book, but two: a scientific monograph and a literary account. In Far Afield-brought to English-language readers here for the first time-Vincent Debaene puzzles out this phenomenon, tracing the contours of anthropology and literature's mutual fascination and the ground upon which they meet in the works of thinkers from Marcel Mauss and Georges Bataille to Claude Lévi-Strauss and Roland Barthes.

    Abstract: Mit der Wirkungsstudie wird erstmals empirisch belegt, wie sich politische Jugendbildung längerfristig auswirkt und in politischen Haltungen sowie politischen Aktivitäten von Teilnehmenden niederschlägt. Dazu haben die Forscher junge Erwachsene biographisch-narrativ interviewt, die etwa fünf Jahre zuvor an Veranstaltungen und Projekten der politischen Jugendbildung teilgenommen haben. Die Analyse der Interviews und Gruppendiskussionen macht deutlich, wie sich diese Bildungserfahrungen - vor dem Hintergrund der jeweiligen Biographie - mit vorhandenen Kenntnissen und Einstellungen verknüpfen und wie sich die jungen Erwachsenen im politischen Raum verorten. Anders als im gegenwartsorientierten und emotional turbulenten Jugendalter sind junge Erwachsene erstmals in der Lage, ihre Entwicklungen und Bildungseffekte zu reflektieren und zu bilanzieren. Erstmals liegt eine träger- und veranstaltungsübergreifende bundesweite Studie vor, die Aussagen darüber erlaubt, wie Jugendliche die Anregungen und Impulse aus Veranstaltungen politischer Bildung in ihrem weiteren Lebenslauf nutzen konnten.

    Abstract: The whole landscape of research in urban studies was revolutionized by the publication of Richard Florida's The Rise of the Creative Class in 2002, and his subsequent book entitled The Flight of the Creative Class has helped to maintain a decade-long explosion of interest in the field. While these two books examine the creative class in the context of the United States, research has emerged which investigates the creative class worldwide.This book brings together detailed studies of the creative class in cities across the globe, examining the impact of the creative class on growth and developm

    Abstract: Internationale Befunde haben konsistent dargelegt, dass destruktive Paarkonflikte und Scheidungen zu den wichtigsten Risikofaktoren für eine ungünstige kindliche Entwicklung gehören. Für Kinder sind Störungen in der Partnerschaft der Eltern in hohem Maße bedrohlich und gehen im Falle einer Trennung der Eltern mit dem schmerzvollen Bruch des bisherigen Lebensentwurfs einher. Dies bedeutet in aller Regel ein hoch destabilisierendes Ereignis, welches von Kindern vielgestaltige Anpassungsleistungen abverlangt. Ermutigenderweise hat die gegenwärtige Paar- und Familienforschung Bedingungen identifiziert, wie Paarkonflikte und Scheidungen möglichst konstruktiv verlaufen - um der Partnerschaft und des Kindeswohls willen.

    Abstract: This issue of Political power and social theory explores the changes in science associated with the rise of neoliberalism since the 1970s. The neoliberalization of science has complicated interactions among states, markets, and civil society, often in ways that challenge major assumptions underlying decades of research. The articles collected here break with older Mertonian sociologies of science and constructivist micro-sociologies of scientific knowledge to examine the meso-level problem of the changing institutional contexts of the scientific field as originally identified by Pierre Bourdieu. Papers presented in Part I extend Bourdieús relational approach to the broader set of interactions among scientific, regulatory, industry, and social movement fields. Part II extends Bourdieu's concern with order and the scientific habitus to the changing patterns of scientific practices under neoliberalism. By reconceptualizing the central problem for the social studies of science as the political sociological problem of field and inter-field dynamics, the collected papers chart an important theoretical agenda for future research in the study of science-society relations

    Abstract: Biographical note: Sarah Dangendorf (Dr. phil.) hat Kultur-, Musik- und Kunstwissenschaft studiert. Sie arbeitet an der Hochschule Hannover.
    Abstract: Long description: Enge Kleidung, hohe Schuhe und Make-up sind heute oft schon bei Zehnjährigen alltäglich - eine Schönheitspraxis, die immer wieder auf Kritik stößt. Doch was steckt hinter der »visuellen Sexualisierung« junger Mädchen? Das Buch greift diese Frage auf und zeigt: Entscheidend sind jene Bedeutungen, die die Akteurinnen selbst ihrem Äußeren zuschreiben. Ihre Praktiken repräsentieren nicht etwa sexuelle Frühreife, sondern vielmehr ihren tiefen Wunsch nach Normalität, ihre Konfrontation mit veränderten Anforderungen von außen und die Gewissheit, weit vor dem Erwachsenenalter für sich selbst verantwortlich zu sein.

    Abstract: This book provides cutting-edge results on the existence of multiple positive periodic solutions of first-order functional differential equations. It demonstrates how the Leggett-Williams fixed-point theorem can be applied to study the existence of two or three positive periodic solutions of functional differential equations with real-world applications, particularly with regard to the Lasota-Wazewska model, the Hematopoiesis model, the Nicholsons Blowflies model, and some models with Allee effects. Many interesting sufficient conditions are given for the dynamics that include nonlinear characteristics exhibited by population models. The last chapter provides results related to the global appeal of solutions to the models considered in the earlier chapters. The techniques used in this book can be easily understood by anyone with a basic knowledge of analysis. This book offers a valuable reference guide for students and researchers in the field of differential equations with applications to biology, ecology, and the environment.

    Abstract: 〈i〉Offers a critical history of the role of pain, suffering, and compassion in democratic culture.〈/i〉〈br/〉〈br/〉〈i〉American Dolorologies〈/i〉 presents a theoretically sophisticated intervention into contemporary equations of subjectivity with trauma. Simon Strick argues against a universalism of pain and instead foregrounds the intimate relations of bodily affect with racial and gender politics. In concise and original readings of medical debates, abolitionist photography, Enlightenment philosophy, and contemporary representations of torture, Strick shows the crucial function that evocations of "bodies in pain" serve in the politicization of differences. This book provides a historical contextualization of contemporary ideas of suffering, sympathy, and compassion, thus establishing an embodied genealogy of the pain that is at the heart of American democratic sentiment.〈br/〉〈br/〉〈b〉Simon Strick〈/b〉 is Postdoctoral Researcher at the Center for Literary and Cultural Research Berlin in Germany

    Abstract: Is it not interesting that at a time when the idea of a global "clash of civilizations" is reverberating so mightily and so ominously, how India puts up with the challenge of forging national unity amidst its intricate diversity? What is the key to her comparative success as an integrated state? The question has assumed added significance after the disintegration of the former multiethnic Soviet Union in the early 1990s. The present study, informed by a modified neo-institutionalism, seeks to identify the key to India's success as an integrated democracy amidst a whole lot of trajectories.

    Abstract: The book examines women's language as an ideological construct historically created by discourse. The aim is to demonstrate, by delineating a genealogy of Japanese women's language, that, to deconstruct and denaturalize the relationships between gender and any language, and to account for why and how they are related as they are, we must consider history, discourse and ideology. The book analyzes multiple discourse examples spanning the premodern period of the thirteenth century to the immediate post-WWII years, mostly translated into English for the first time, locating them in political, soc

    Abstract: Recasting Caste confronts the mainstream sociology of caste at its root: Louis Dumont's Homo Hierarchicus and its main source, Max Weber's distinction between class and status. Conventional wisdom on caste is idealist, and most students of the subject therefore exaggerate ritual homogeneity and deflect attention from intracaste differentiation and inequality. In contrast, by focusing on intracaste differences, Professor Singh demonstrates that caste hierarchy is grounded in a monopoly of land rights and political power supported by religious and secular ideology. Drawing on the sociological, a

    Abstract: During the past three decades, two terms, "postmodernism" and "globalization" have entered not only academic discourse, but everyday discussions outside the groves of academia. This book contains essays assembled with a conviction that both postmodernism and globalization have the potential to be valuable tools for social analysts, this despite the uncertainties and ambiguities that persist. The editors and the contributors make no claim to have found a solution that would overcome the uncertainties and ambiguities. Rather, it is assumed that at some level both the concepts will remain contest

    Abstract: This book explores the complex relationships between belonging and globalization in the contemporary Himalayan world and beyond. Over the last decades, the interrelations at local, national, and global scales have intensified in historically unprecedented forms and intensity. At the same time, homogenizing global processes have generated parochial and vernacular reactions. This book aims at developing an appropriate analysis of these interactions and, thus, at supplementing the previous collection on the Politics of Belonging in the Himalayas. This book is the first major study on this topic a

This passage?which some environmentalists and religious scholars treat as a?green" creation myth?drives H.H. Shugart's extraordinary investigation, in which he uses verses from God's speech to Job to explore the planetary system, animal domestication, sea-level rise, evolution, biodiversity, weather phenomena, and climate change. Shugart calls attention to the rich resonance between the Earth's natural history and the workings of religious feeling, the wisdom of

    Abstract: The migration process is interpreted in a different way when researchers live in so-called societies of origin, than when it is interpreted from societies of destination even when research work is multi-situated. The localization of researchers in this field involves numerous factors that influence the modalities for conducting research. Research agendas are clearly mediated by these localizations, and this book on the contemporary social sciences points out those mediations, breaking with the dichotomous readings that are implicit in this migration process (origin-destination, north-south, and cause-effect, to mention just a few). In the individual chapters, priority is given to presenting the modalities through which research is conducted in multidisciplinary or interdisciplinary teams on the American Continent. In summary, the focus of this book is on the narrative of methodological experience of the Practice of Research on Migration and Mobilities

    Abstract: In recent decades, the conceptualization of space and place as social constructs, rather than static settings has received significant attention and has been re-evaluated with an emphasis on the cultural, social, and political practice. This shift moves away from regarding space as fixed, unchanging container towards a realization that space is always inextricably linked with social practice and cultural signification. Thus, the study of spatial practices interrogates human action in different spaces, human agency in the production of space, and space in its capacity to prompt human action. By

    Abstract: Over this last decade, the concept of Social Metabolism has gained prestige as a theoretical instrument for the required analysis, to such an extent that there are now dozens of researchers, hundreds of articles and several books that have adopted and use this concept. However, there is a great deal of variety in terms of definitions and interpretations, as well as different methodologies around this concept, which prevents the consolidation of a unified field of new knowledge. The fundamental aim of the book is to conduct a review of the past and present usage of the concept of social metabolism, its origins and history, as well as the main currents or schools that exist around this concept. At the same time, the reviews and discussions included are used by the authors as starting points to draw conclusions and propose a theory of socio-ecological transformations.The theoretical and methodological innovations of this book include a distinction of two types of metabolic processes: tangible and intangible; the analysis of the social metabolism at different scales (in space and time) and a theory of socio-ecological change overcoming the merely "systemic" or "cybernetic" nature of conventional approaches, giving special protagonism to collective acti.

    Abstract: In this book Haggai Mazuz offers an account of the halakhic character of the Jewish community of Medina in the seventh century CE. Making use of a unique methodology of comparison between Islamic and Jewish sources, Mazuz convincingly argues that the Jews of Medina were Talmudic-Rabbinic Jews in almost every respect. Their sages believed in using homiletic interpretation of the Scriptures, as did the sages of the Talmud. On many halakhic issues, their observations were identical to those of the Talmudic sages. In addition, they held Rabbinic beliefs, sayings and motifs derived from the Midrashic literature. --from back cover

    Abstract: Von allen europäischen Ländern übte Großbritannien auf deutsche Reisende seit dem Beginn der Neuzeit eine besondere Anziehungskraft aus. Infolge des Epochenumbruchs im Zeitalter des Humanismus und der Reformation wurden die Englandreisen häufiger. Die entsprechenden Entwicklungen kulminierten im 18. Jahrhundert, im Zeitalter der Aufklärung. Eine neue Qualität gewannen deutsche Englandreisen dann nach den Verwerfungen der Französischen Revolution und der Napoleonischen Kriege mit Blick auf die Beobachtung der sozialen, wirtschaftlichen und politischen Folgen der Industriellen Revolution, bevor die realpolitische Entfremdung am Ende des 19. Jahrhunderts zu einem merklichen Wandel des deutschen Englandbildes führte. Die entsprechenden Prozesse spiegeln sich in den 14 Beiträgen des Bandes wider. Sie beruhen auf den Vorträgen der 31. Jahrestagung der Prinz-Albert-Gesellschaft, die im September 2012 in Coburg stattfand
