    DDC: 305.891/5970561
    Keywords: Electronic books
    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

    Parallel Title: Print version Communicating : The Multiple Modes of Human Communication
    DDC: 302.2
    Keywords: Electronic books
    Abstract: Many accounts of human communication suggest that we are limited to communicating through words, visual images, the mass media and by digital means. This perspective underestimates the multisensory qualities of much of our human interconnecting and the multiple sounds, touches, sights and material objects which humans use so creatively to interconnect both nearby and across space and time.Ruth Finnegan brings together research from linguistic and sensory anthropology, alternative approaches to 'material culture' and 'the body', non-verbal communication, cultural studies, computer-mediated comm

    Abstract: Across Europe there is a rapidly changing context for undertaking regional development. In the 20th century, development of the former planned economies (Bulgaria, Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland, Romania and Slovakia), was defined by these countries differences, rather than their common ideological roots. These disparities altered over time and were marked by changing social structures. However, the ranking of regions has remained the same as core areas have strengthened their positions while the structural obstacles to the modernisation of peripheral areas have remained due to a lack of coherent regional policy. This book examines the specific regional development paths of Central and Eastern European countries and evaluates the effects of the determining factors of this process. Through analysis of the system of objectives, instruments and institutions used in different eras, and case studies of Hungary, East Germany and Germany, development models are established and compared with Western European patterns. The book summarises the experiences of Central and Eastern European regional cooperation and examines the basic nature of the cohesion problems of the Carpathian Basin trans-national macro region. It confirms by comparative historical analyses that the transformation was indeed unique. This book will make a welcome addition to the literature for students and academics interested in the broader picture of Central and Eastern European politics, future integration within the European Union and the history of regional development processes.

    Abstract: This volume is in part intended to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child. We are now a generation on from its formulation, and, as this varied collection of articles by leading thinkers in the field reflects, children's rights have come a long way. Yet the aim of this volume is not to look back, but to take stock and look forward. It explores subjects as diverse as socio-economic rights, corporal punishment, language and scientific progress as they relate to children and their rights, and offers new insights and new ideas. Edited by one of the most respected and leading scholars in the field, The Future of Children's Rights constitutes a stimulating and useful resource for academics and practitioners alike.

    Keywords: Geschichte 2005-2010 ; Außenpolitik ; Nationalismus ; Russland ; Aufsatzsammlung
    Abstract: The contributors to this book discuss the new conjunctions that have emerged between foreign policy events and politicized expressions of Russian nationalism since 2005. The 2008 war with Georgia, as well as conflicts with Ukraine and other East European countries over the memory of the Soviet Union, and the Russian interpretation of the 2005 French riots have all contributed to reinforcing narratives of Russia as a fortress surrounded by aggressive forces, in the West and CIS. This narrative has found support not only in state structures, but also within the larger public. It has been especially salient for some nationalist youth movements, including both pro-Kremlin organizations, such as "Nashi," and extra-systemic groups, such as those of the skinheads. These various actors each have their own specific agendas; they employ different modes of public action, and receive unequal recognition from other segments of society. Yet many of them expose a reading of certain foreign policy events which is roughly similar to that of various state structures. These and related phenomena are analyzed, interpreted and contextualized in papers by Luke March, Igor Torbakov, Jussi Lassila, Marlène Laruelle, and Lukasz Jurczyszyn.

    Abstract: How do digital media change the way we read aloud, a key cultural tool for reading socialization? This qualitative study focuses on this central question. Using the structural-genetic approach to socialization research, the book analyzes the reading-aloud practices of eight families from data obtained through videography. Of particular interest is the impact of the digital picture book on the interactional structure of reading aloud.

    Abstract: This book provides a range of interdisciplinary and international perspectives on difficulties in literacy development. The high-profile team of contributors provide ethical and policy discussions, as well as contextualising individual and collective strategies to addressing difficulties in literacy development. The chapters break new ground by encompassing a wide range of perspectives related to critical literacy, socio-cultural, cognitive, and psychological viewpoints, to help inform practice, policy and research into literacy difficulties. Issues addressed include: *the different ways literacy can be conceptualised through social-science based disciplinary perspectives *the issues at the centre of current public and professional debates surrounding literacy difficulties and how these have impacted upon pedagogical responses *the impact of these wider political and social issues on individual students. This reader forms the basis of the Open University's Difficulties in Literacy Development course, but will also be of interest to postgraduate students, teachers, researchers, education professionals and policymakers who are keen to address difficulties in literacy development.

    Abstract: Environmental Change and Human Development focuses on environmental change and human fortunes. While there is a large and rapidly expanding literature dealing with how people affect the environment, less attention has been given in recent years to how the environment shapes human development. In an ever more crowded world there is a need for anticipatory environmental management, and a crucial input to this is consideration of the interaction between environment and humans. The environment is not as stable, benign or controllable as people like to think. The world population is vastly larger ...

    Abstract: Thomas S. Kuhn coined the term "paradigm shift" in 1962, and since then, it has taken on discursive power beyond the realm of the philosophy of science. This work's examination of the cultural applications of the "paradigmatic" helps us to achieve a more precise understanding of the different ways that the term has been used.

    Abstract: Tsenhor was born about 550 BCE in the city of Thebes (Karnak). She died some sixty years later, having lived through the reigns of Amasis II, Psamtik III, Cambyses II, Darius I and perhaps even Psamtik IV. By carefully retracing the events of her life as they are recorded in papyri now kept in museums in London, Paris, Turin, and Vienna, the author creates the image of a proud and independent businesswoman who made her own decisions in life. Like her father and husband, Tsenhor could be hired to bring offerings to the dead in the necropolis on the west bank of the Nile. For a fee of course, and that is how her family acquired high-quality farm land on more than one occasion. But Tsenhor also did other business on her own, such as buying a slave and co-financing the reconstruction of a house that she owned together with her husband. When Tsenhor decided to divide her inheritance, her son and daughter each received an equal share. Even the papyri proving her children's rights to her inheritance were cut to equal size, as if to underline that in her household boys and girls had exactly the same rights. Tsenhor seems in many ways to have been a liberated woman, some 2,500 years before the concept was invented. Embedded in the history of the first Persian occupation of Egypt, and using many sources dealing with ordinary women from the Old Kingdom up to and including the Coptic era, this book aims to for ever change the general view on women in ancient Egypt, which is far too often based on the lives of Nefertiti, Hatshepsut, and Cleopatra.

    Abstract: As Tony Blair has said, "Technology has revolutionised the way we work and is now set to transform education. Children cannot be effective in tomorrow's world if they are trained in yesterday's skills." Cyberkids draws together research in the sociology of childhood and social studies of technology to explore children's experiences in the Information Age. The book addresses key policy debates about social inclusion and exclusion, children's identities and friendships in on-line and off-line worlds and their relationships with families and teachers. It counters contemporary moral panics about children's risk from dangerous strangers on-line, about corruption and lost innocence from adult-centred material on the web and about the addiction to life on the screen. Instead, by showing how children use ICT in balanced and sophisticated ways, the book draws out the importance of everyday uses of technology and the ways in which children's local experiences are embedded within, and in part, constitute the global.

    Abstract: This book is about the Basel Mission in the Gold Coast (now Ghana) before the First World War. Miller reconstructs the backgrounds and motivations of the mission's participants and describes the organizational structure that shaped their activities at home and abroad. He then traces some serious and recurrent internal problems to the commitment to difficult Pietist beliefs about authority and obedience. The organization survived those troubles and its impact on Ghana continued to grow, because the same biblical worldview that demanded extreme discipline also prepared the members of the mission community to sustain their efforts.

    Abstract: This book is based upon detailed research on the behavior and skills of successful negotiators. From this research, the book extracts Five Golden Rules along with simple tools and techniques which, if applied, guarantee a successful negotiation outcome. The book itself is based upon a fictional buyer- salesperson relationship. The book starts with the two protagonists meeting over lunch on the day the Buyer is due to retire. They begin to discuss their business relationship over the years and the book uses different episodes/meetings during that time to bring out the above Golden Rules and other negotiation concepts. The book provides simple tools to help apply the Golden Rules and each chapter concludes with a summary of the key points and questions to be considered.

    Abstract: It has only been recognised tardily and with reluctance that during the Second World War hundreds of thousands of itinerants met the same horrendous fate as Jews and other victims of Nazism. Gypsies appear to appeal to the imagination simply as social outcasts and scapegoats or, in a flattering but no more illuminating light, as romantic outsiders. In this study, contemporary notions about Gypsies are traced back as far as possible to their roots, in an attempt to lay bare why stigmatisation of gypsies, or rather groups labelled as such, has continuned from the distant past even to today.

There are numerous books available on the so-called ""Golden Age"" of popular song, but none that follow the development of popular song styles in the second half of the 20th century. While 1950 is seen as the ""end of an era,"" the tap of popular song creation hardly ran dry after that date. Many of the classic songwriters continued to work through the following decades: Porter was active until 1958; Rodgers until the later 1970s...

    Abstract: Social Identity explains how identification, seen as a social process, works: individually, interactionally and institutionally. Building on the international success of previous editions, this fourth edition offers a concise, comprehensive and readable critical introduction to social science theories of identity for advanced undergraduates and postgraduates. All the chapters have been updated, and extra new material has been added where relevant, integrating the most recent critical publications in the field.As with the earlier editions, the emphasis is on sociology, anthropology and social psychology; on the interplay between relationships of similarity and difference; on interaction; on the categorisation of others as well as self-identification; and on power, institutions and organisations.Written in clear, accessible language, and informed by relevant topical examples throughout, this fully updated new edition will be useful for students interested in social identity throughout the social sciences and humanities.

    Series Statement: Studies in Curriculum Theory Series
    DDC: 375.001
    Abstract: In current global politics, which positions China as a competitor to American leadership, in-depth understandings of transnational mutual engagement are much needed for cultivating nonviolent relations. Exploring American and Chinese professors' experiences at the intersection of the individual, society, and history, and weaving the autobiographical and the global, this book furthers understanding of their cross-cultural personal awareness and educational work at universities in both countries. While focusing on life histories, it also draws on both American and Chinese intellectual traditions such as American nonviolence activism, Taoism, and Buddhism to formulate a vision of nonviolence in curriculum studies. Centering cross-cultural education and pedagogy about, for, and through nonviolence, this volume contributes to internationalizing curriculum studies and introduces curriculum theorizing at the level of higher education. Hongyu Wang brings together stories, dialogues, and juxtapositions of cross-cultural pathways and pedagogies in a powerful case for theorizing and performing nonviolence education as visionary work in the internationalization of curriculum studies.

    Abstract: Even though violence often functions irrationally, recent research has suggested that, as a form of nonverbal communication, violence follows certain rules. The essays explore this phenomenon, with a special focus on collective violence. They investigate examples taken from the cultural and literary history of the premodern era to examine rules of violent action, rules that provoke violence, and rules about discussing violence.

    Abstract: This is the first major re-assessment of Ivan the Terrible to be published in the West in the post-Soviet period. It breaks away from older stereotypes of the tsar - whether as 'crazed tyrant' and 'evil genius', on the one hand, or as a 'great and wise statesman', on the other - to provide a more balanced picture. It examines the ways in which Ivan's policies contributed to the creation of Russia's distinctive system of unlimited monarchical rule. Ivan is best remembered for his reign of terror, the book pays due attention to the horrors of his executions, tortures and repressions, es

    Abstract: Why are most famous historians men? How have women changed the writing of history over the last decades? What lives and stories have been hidden from history?Until recently history was predominantly the domain of men. That men were the authors of our past meant that in many cases only half of the story was told. In the second half of the twentieth century, however, the picture changed. Women, and indeed some men as well, started to address gender history. Women had been investigated historically before, but never with such intensity, nor such breadth. The impetus for this writing was

Psychologist Jay Joseph outlines the fallacies of twin studies in the context of the ongoing decades-long failure to discover genes for human behavioral differences, including IQ, personality, and the major psychiatric disorders. This volume critically examines twin research, with a special emphasis on reared-apart twin studies, and incorporates new and updated perspectives, analyses, arguments, and evidence. 〈/P〉

    Series Statement: Histories of Anthropology Annual
    DDC: 301.01
    Abstract: Volume 8 of the Histories of Anthropology Annual series, the premier series published in the history of the discipline, explores national anthropological traditions in Britain, the United States, and Europe and follows them into postnational contexts. Contributors reassess the major theorists in twentieth-century anthropology, including the work of luminaries such as Franz Boas, Claude Lévi-Strauss, Bronisław Malinowski, A. R. Radcliffe-Brown, and Marshall Sahlins, as well as lesser-known but important anthropological work by Berthold Laufer, A. M. Hocart, Kenelm O. L. Burridge, and Robin Ridington, among others.These essays examine myriad themes such as the pedagogical context of the anthropologist as a teller of stories about indigenous storytellers; the colonial context of British anthropological theory and its projects outside the nation-state; the legacies of Claude Lévi-Strauss's structuralism regarding culture- specific patterns; cognitive universals reflected in empirical examples of kinship, myth, language, classificatory systems, and supposed universal mental structures; and the career of Marshall Sahlins and his trajectory from neo-evolutionism and structuralism toward an epistemological skepticism of cross- cultural miscommunication.

    Abstract: Für die Eltern ist die Pubertät ihrer Kinder ein einschneidender Lebensabschnitt, in dem eine Menge erzieherischer Aufgaben ein Ende nehmen. Die meisten Eltern verstehen, dass ihre Kinder groß und selbständig werden. Und sie freuen sich darauf. Selbständigkeit tritt nicht an dem Tag ein, am dem das Kind volljährig wird, sondern ist ein Prozess, der hoffentlich schon früher begonnen hat. Auch bei kleinen Kindern ist es wichtig, dass sie in der Familie Verantwortung und Aufgaben übernehmen, die zu ihrer Entwicklung passen. Darüber gibt es gewöhnlich keinen Streit. In der Pubertät machen Eltern einen neuen Schritt, indem sie ihrem Kind mehr Verantwortung und Freiheiten geben, was aber häufig mit Konflikten verbunden ist. Der Jugendliche und seine Eltern sind sich oft uneinig, wie viel Verantwortung und Freiheit ihm zugebilligt werden kann.Ein sensibler Ratgeber für Eltern, Lehrer, Trainer, Ärzte, Berater und Psychotherapeuten.   Biographische Informationen Willem Heuves, Universitätsdozent für Klinische Psychologie an der Universität Leiden, Psychotherapeut und Psychoanalytiker für Kinder, Jugendliche und Erwachsene.

    Abstract: Gus Reed was a freed slave who traveled north as Sherman's March was sweeping through Georgia in 1864. His journey ended in Springfield, Illinois, a city undergoing fundamental changes as its white citizens struggled to understand the political, legal, and cultural consequences of emancipation and black citizenship. Reed became known as a petty thief, appearing time and again in the records of the state's courts and prisons. In late 1877, he burglarized the home of a well-known Springfield attorney-and brother of Abraham Lincoln's former law partner-a crime for which he was convicted and sentenced to the Illinois State Penitentiary. Reed died at the penitentiary in 1878, shackled to the door of his cell for days with a gag strapped in his mouth. An investigation established that two guards were responsible for the prisoner's death, but neither they nor the prison warden suffered any penalty. The guards were dismissed, the investigation was closed, and Reed was forgotten. Gus Reed's story connects the political and legal cultures of white supremacy, black migration and black communities, the Midwest's experience with the Civil War and Reconstruction, and the resurgence of nationwide opposition to African American civil rights in the late nineteenth century. These experiences shaped a nation with deep and unresolved misgivings about race, as well as distinctive and conflicting ideas about justice and how to achieve it.

    Abstract: An intriguing exploration of the role and significance of the body in the world of a Pacific Islands People, the Lelet of New Ireland (Papua New Guinea). In vivid ethnographic detail, the monograph captures the fluidity and complexity of Lelet conceptions of corporeality and their significance to identity as they encounter the influences of modernity, in the form of colonialism, Christianity and cash-cropping. The author examines the importance of the body to constructions of identity and difference, and its role in the constitution of place and space. The book provides a richly detailed ethnographic study of magical belief and the body whilst paying particular attention to the polyvalent meanings of bodily images and metaphors as they are used in numerous contexts of magic.

    Abstract: More than two decades of deconstruction, renovation, and reconstruction have left the urban environments in the former German Democratic Republic completely transformed. This volume considers the changing urban landscapes in the former East - and how the filling of previous absences and the absence of previous presence - creates the cultural landscape of modern unified Germany. This broadens our understanding of this transformation by examining often-neglected cities, spaces, or structures, and historical narration and preservation..

    Abstract: The significant changes in early modern German marriage practices included many unions that violated some taboo. That taboo could be theological and involve the marriage of monks and nuns, or refer to social misalliances as when commoners and princes (or princesses) wed. Equally transgressive were unions that crossed religious boundaries, such as marriages between Catholics and Protestants, those that violated ethnic or racial barriers, and those that broke kin-related rules. Taking as a point of departure Martin Luther's redefinition of marriage, the contributors to this volume spin out the multiple ways that the Reformers' attempts to simplify and clarify marriage affected education, philosophy, literature, high politics, diplomacy, and law. Ranging from the Reformation, through the ages of confessionalization, to the Enlightenment, Mixed Matches addresses the historical complexity of the socio-cultural institution of marriage.

    Abstract: Olive Schreiner (1855-1920) was the best-known feminist theorist and writer of her time. Her writings spanned a number of conventionally separate genres (including the novel, short story, allegory, political essay, polemic and theoretical treatise), which she crafted to produce a highly distinctive feminist and analytical 'voice'. A feminist who was contemporaneously an internationally-renowned social commentator, Schreiner's developing political analysis was - and still is - highly original. She developed a materially-based socialist and feminist analysis of 'labour' which led her to theorise social and economic change, divisions of labour in society and between women and men, capitalism and imperialism, around innovative ideas about how -- and by whom -- economic and social value was produced. She combined with this a keen attention to inter-personal relations, between women as literally or politically sisters, between 'respectable' and sexually outcast women, between feminist women and the 'New Men', and within the family. Distinctively, Schreiner's writings on economic and political life in South Africa criticised the policies and practice of Rhodes in the Cape Colony and British imperialism in southern Africa more widely. She opposed the South African War of 1899-1902, promoted federation rather than union as the form the South African state should take and insisted on equal political rights for all. Schreiner steadfastly opposed the development of apartheid segregationist policies and provided a radical analysis of the relationship between 'race' and capital.Imperialism, Labour and the New Woman is based on primary archive research, making particular use of Schreiner's unpublished letters and other major manuscript sources to provide a major reconceptualisation of the scope and importance of her writings and innovative and experimental...

It offers a major rethinking of Schreiner's political writings on South Africa, and it emphasises the distinctiveness of Schreiner's contribution as the major feminist theorist of her age and that which followed. The book will appeal particularly to readers interested in the development of social theory, in influential feminist ideas and writing of the fin de sicle period, in the contemporary critique of capitalism and imperialism, and in 'the age of imperialism' in Southern Africa, as well as to Women's Studies scholars across the academic disciplines.

    Abstract: Das Verhältnis zwischen Menschen und anderen Tieren hat zahlreiche Facetten, ist so alt wie der Mensch selbst und hat wiederum Einfluss auf zwischenmenschliche Beziehungen. Eine strenge Hierarchie lässt den Menschen als legitimen Herrscher erscheinen und tradiert dieses Verhältnis zumeist unhinterfragt; es wird im Rahmen der Sozialisation, unter anderem auch durch Sprache, fest in unseren Köpfen verankert. Als gewaltsames Herrschaftsverhältnis bietet das Verhältnis zwischen Menschen und anderen Tieren dabei Gewalt als ein legitimes Handlungsmittel an, welches zwar nicht auf Menschen übertragen werden soll, dessen bloße Existenz aber Modellcharakter für zwischenmenschliches Handeln haben kann. Ebenso haben friedliche Beziehungen zwischen Menschen zu anderen Tieren Modellcharakter.Viele Intellektuelle wie z. B. Immanuel Kant und Albert Einstein haben sich seit der Antike mit dem Verhältnis zwischen Menschen und anderen Tieren und dessen Einfluss auf den Menschen beschäftigt. Die meisten postulieren dabei ähnliche Zusammenhänge. Während gewaltsame Behandlung von nicht-menschlichen Tieren den Menschen verrohen lasse und seine Hemmschwelle zur Gewalt gegenüber anderen Menschen herabsenke, befördere der friedliche Umgang mit nichtmenschlichen Tieren ein friedliches zwischenmenschliches Miteinander.In der vorliegenden Studie betrachtet der Autor das Tier nicht aus der üblichen technisch-ökonomischen Perspektive, sondern wagt den seltenen Ansatz diese als Bedeutungsträger für den Menschen zu untersuchen. Er diskutiert dabei die folgenden Fragen: Kann eine friedliche und respektvolle Beziehung zu Tieren positive Auswirkungen auf ein zwischenmenschliches Miteinander haben? Haben gewalttätiger und verständnisloser Umgang mit ihnen negative Folgen für zwischenmenschlichen Umgang? Und was kann dies für globale Dimensionen bedeuten? Auszug aus dem...
    Abstract: TextTextprobe:Kapitel 3, Begriffliche Unterscheidungen und daraus resultierende Konsequenzen:Nachdem Analogien und Unterschiede zwischen Menschen und anderen Tieren beleuchtet wurden, gilt es nun einen Blick auf unsere Sprache zu werfen, die nämlich jene Kluft wirkungsvoll zu vertiefen vermag. Viele auf nicht-menschliche Tiere bezogene Begriffe im Sprachgebrauch führen zu einer Entsubjektivierung von diesen und reduzieren sie rein auf die Funktion und den Wert, den sie für die Spezies Mensch haben. Ein Selbstwert wird ihnen damit abgesprochen: 'Nutzvieh' werden jene Tiere genannt, die hauptsächlich in einer Gesellschaft ausgebeutet werden; in der deutschen Gesellschaft (wie in den meisten westeuropäischen und nordamerikanischen Industrienationen) also Hühner, Schweine und Rinder, manchmal auch Pferde.Während die Vorsilbe 'Nutz-' die nicht-menschlichen Tiere aus anthropozentrischer Sicht funktionalisiert, verbaut der stark abwertend konnotierte Begriff '-vieh' den Blick auf Individuen. Eben das geschieht, wenn Kühe und Bullen zum 'Rindviech' (vgl. im Engl.: cattle), Hühner und Hähne zum 'Geflügel' (vgl. im Engl.: poultry), Hirsche, Hasen, Wildschweine und viele mehr zum 'Wild' (vgl. im Engl.: game), Laster mit lebenden Schweinen zum 'Lebendfleischtransport' werden. 'Milchkühe', 'Mastsäue', 'Versuchskaninchen', 'Speisefische' und 'Legehennen' lassen eher einen individuellen Blick zu, reduzieren nicht-menschliche Subjekte aber ebenfalls auf bestimmte Funktionen für den Menschen. Gleichzeitig suggerieren diese Bezeichnungen eben diese Funktionstiere jeweils als factum brutum und nicht als menschengemacht; was es für das jeweilige Tier bedeutet, eine 'Mastsau' oder eine 'Legehenne' zu sein ist irrelevant, sie sind es schlichtweg. 'Der Mensch ist funktional nicht definierbar. Doch auch Tiere sind es nur in den Augen und Ordnungssystemen des Menschen.'
    Abstract: Kuh, Sau, Schwein, Rindviech, Ochse und dergleichen mehr - meist mit despektierlichen Adjektiven versehen - gelten als gängige Schimpfwörter und betonen die unterschiedlichen Wertigkeiten von Menschen und anderen Tieren; macht man jemanden 'zur Sau', erniedrigt man ihn. 'Solange Artbezeichnungen als Schimpfworte Verwendung finden, wird es schwierig sein, unsere Gefühle der Überlegenheit und Verachtung 'dreckigen' und 'dummen' Nutztieren gegenüber abzubauen.'Auch Begrifflichkeiten zu potentiell Leid (vgl. Kapitel 4) verursachenden Vorgängen taugen zur Relativierung: Qualvolles Sterben wird zu 'Verenden' oder 'Eingehen', mit großem Unwohlsein einhergehende Zwangspaarung ('Vergewaltigung') zur 'Deckung', präventives und massenhaftes Totschlagen zur 'Keulung'. Weitere Hinweise auf die enorme Geringschätzung von nicht-menschlichen Tieren und die als legitim wahrgenommene Gewalt gegen sie bieten Phrasen wie 'Bluten wie ein Schwein', 'Abstechen wie eine Sau', 'abgeschlachtet' und 'behandelt wie ein Tier' zur Beschreibung von furchtbaren Taten an oder grausamen Umgang mit Menschen und 'Schlächter von...' als Bezeichnung für Kriegsverbrecher. Was bei Menschen als bestialisch wahrgenommen wird, gilt bei nicht-menschlichen Tieren als historisch normal. Es wird 'Empörung über die Behandlung von Menschen durch den bloßen Tiervergleich ausgelöst, während die gewalttätige Behandlung der Tiere nur die Kontrastfolie des Normalfalls bildet.'Die Soziologin Birgit Mütherich (1959-2011) erkannte in der Abgrenzung des Menschen von nicht-menschlichen Tieren dienenden Begrifflichkeiten einerseits einen Identitätsschutz,andererseits die Verlagerung von negativ empfundenen Ich-Anteilen nach außen, sowie abwertende Implikationen, die der eigenen (menschlichen) Aufwertung dienen. Auch in der Pädagogik kennen wir das Phänomen der Selbsterhöhung durch Fremderniedrigung,
    Abstract: welches ein modellhaftes Vorbild im Verhältnis zu nicht-menschlichen Tieren haben kann. Birgit Mütherich betont die enorme Relevanz, die diese begrifflichen Unterscheidungen mit sich bringen, 'denn das Medium Sprache ist weltbildbildend und damit weltbildend. Indem sprachliche Kategorien und Verknüpfungen maßgeblich die Art der Wahrnehmung und Beurteilung von Individuen beeinflussen, kollektive Deutungsmuster generieren oder reproduzieren und schließlich - der Reflexion weitgehend entzogen - in gesellschaftliche 〉〉WahrheitenEine gefährliche Gedankenstruktur lässt sich hierin erkennen, wie auch Albert Schweitzer (1875-1965) befindet: 'Im Gefolge dieser Unterscheidung kommt dann die Ansicht auf, dass es wertloses Leben gäbe, dessen Schädigung und Vernichtung nichts auf sich habe. Unter wertlosem Leben werden dann, je nach den Umständen, Arten von Insekten oder primitive Völker verstanden.' Schon die Begrifflichkeiten zeigen neben dem Umgang mit nicht-menschlichen Tieren, dass gewalttätige Strukturen und Handlungen an sich als erfolgreiche Handlungsstrategien legitimiert werden, wenngleich stets die Prämisse gelehrt wird, diese nicht auf Menschen zu übertragen. Als unter bestimmten Umständen adäquate, mögliche Handlungsalternativen sind sie damit dennoch gesellschaftlich verankert. Trotz der eingangs postulierten Versachlichung von nicht-menschlichen Tieren durch Sprache scheint Folgendes zu gelten:'Während sich Menschen gegenseitig zu Objekten degradieren, dehumanisieren und verdinglichen könnten wie z. B. im Rassismus, sei dies bei Tieren unmöglich, 'weil nichtmenschliche Tiere schon von vornherein den Objekt-Status haben/ entmenschlicht sind, d.h. sie müssen erst gar nicht objektiviert werden. Sie sind sozusagen andere Andere - ihre Unterdrückung ist ein Gemeinsinn.''Der große Einfluss von Sprache auf unser Denken und Handeln ist kaum zu
    Abstract: unterschätzen; er wirkt seit frühester Kindheit und prägt damit sogar gesellschaftliche Haltungen. Dieser Gedanke wird in Kapitel 5 erneut aufgenommen. Zunächst sollen aber entscheidende Aspekte des Wesens von nicht-menschlichen Tieren beleuchtet werden. Biographische InformationenRobert Pilgrim, M.Ed. wurde 1987 in Neustadt, Holstein geboren. Er befasste sich schon früh mit dem Verhältnis von Menschen und Tieren und untersuchte dessen Verbindungen in Bezug auf zwischenmenschliche Beziehungen und Verhaltensweisen. Viele philosophische Überlegungen, soziale Ablehnung und bisweilen leidenschaftliche Diskurse ließen ihn vertiefte Einblicke in die Zusammenhänge von der Welt des industrialisierten Systems, der Ausbeutung von nicht-menschlichen Tieren und sozialer Tradierung gewinnen.Sein Studium der Sonderpädagogik wurde von theoretischen und praktischen Erfahrungen in der Tierrechtsarbeit begleitet.

    Abstract: This edited volume aims at exploring a most relevant but somewhat neglected subject in archaeological studies, especially within Latin America: maroons and runaway settlements. Scholarship on runaways is well established and prolific in ethnology, anthropology and history, but it is still in its infancy in archaeology. A small body of archaeological literature on maroons exists for other regions, but no single volume discusses the subject in depth, including diverse eras and geographical areas within Latin American contexts. Thus, a central aim of the volume is to gather together some of the most active, Latin American maroon archaeologists in a single volume. This volume will thus become an important reference book on the subject and will also foster further archaeology research on maroon settlements. The introduction and comments by senior scholars provide a wide-ranging and comprehensive analysis of runaway archaeology that will help to indicate the global importance of this research.

    Abstract: In den Nachkriegsjahrzehnten entstand eine soziale Ordnung und durch deren Ausbau der Sozialstaat Österreich. Bis etwa in die 1970er Jahre war eine expansive Sozialpolitik aufgrund der dynamischen Wirtschaftslage möglich, die im heutigen Verständnis zum Wohlfahrtsstaat führte, der einerseits für seine Bevölkerung soziale Sicherungsfunktionen vorsieht und andererseits Tendenzen zum Versorgungsstaat aufzeigt.Mit der Globalisierung entstand eine vernetzte Arbeitswelt und so auch gesellschaftliche Veränderungen. Der soziale Ordnungsmechanismus im Wohlfahrtsstaat war nicht mehr haltbar und Konfliktlagen häuften sich, was zur passiven Haltung der Menschen in Bezug auf mehr Eigenverantwortung führte. Dieser Wandel birgt, für die darauf auszurichtende Wirtschafts- und Sozialpolitik, neue Herausforderungen nach bisher ungewohnten Handlungsmustern. Der Autor konzentriert sich darauf, die Wirklichkeiten der sozialen Sicherung in Österreich, im zeitgeschichtlichen Kontext mit Hinsicht auf politische, ökonomische und gesellschaftliche Zusammenhänge darzustellen. Ziel war es, strukturelle und allgemeine Entwicklungslinien, anhand der Zeitchronologie nach 1955 herauszuarbeiten, wozu nicht nur normative Gesichtspunkte des Sozialstaates und seiner schleichenden Aushöhlung, sondern auch positive Aspekte des heutigen Wohlfahrtsstaates thematisiert werden. Betrachtung finden auch andere beeinflussende Faktoren, der Paradigmenwechsel und anhaltende Transformationsprozesse in der wohlfahrtsstaatlichen Politik, die verstärkt auf Austerität vor Defizit-Spending setzt. Außerdem wird auch die EU, als nicht zu unterschätzender Einflussfaktor, in Bezug auf das nationale Gefüge der sozialen Ordnung, ins Visier genommen. Obwohl Österreich den Fokus dieser kritischen und aktuellen Auseinandersetzung mit der Thematik „Wohlfahrtsstaat" bildet, sind die fundierten...
    Abstract: Analyseergebnisse auf die meisten westlichen Demokratien, mit sozialem Engagement zum Gemeinwohl ihrer Gesellschaft, anwendbar. Auszug aus dem TextTextprobe:Kapitel 2.2, Der Beginn und die 'Hoch'zeit der Prosperität:2.2.1, Nachkriegszeit und Umbruch:Natürlich gab es Probleme aufgrund der durch den Krieg verloren gegangenen Arbeitsplätze, und die Eingliederung der im Krieg gedienten Soldaten, Flüchtlinge und Evakuierten gestaltete sich schwierig. Die Versorgung mit Lebensmitteln und Brennstoffen war weder sichergestellt noch für jedermann immer sofort bezahlbar. Ordentliche Wohnungen galten als Luxus und für die Masse ohnehin nicht erschwinglich, vielmehr konnte sich das Gros der Bevölkerung nur nach heutiger Sicht so genannte Substandard-Wohnungen leisten (Wasser, Toilette außerhalb), die zumeist nur aus zwei Räumen bestanden. Darüber hinaus kam es zu neuen Schichten bzw. sozialen Milieus, die sich aus den Gegensätzlichkeiten zwischen Einheimischen und Flüchtlingen, hungernden Städtern und Bauern, weiters den Deportierten und zurückgekehrten Kriegsgefangenen sowie Nicht-Kriegsteilnehmern ergaben. Der Sozialstaat war überfordert, und das Leben gestaltete sich nicht nur durch die Zerstörungen mühevoll, auch der Bereich Bildung hatte mit Schwierigkeiten zu kämpfen, was etwa die Gestaltung des Unterrichts in Schulen und an Universitäten betraf. - Andererseits begann eine Zeit des Umbruchs im Nachkriegseuropa, der auch Österreich für lange prägte: Das Familienbild, nämlich die Rollen von Eltern und Kindern, änderte sich; grundlegende Reformen des Sozialstaats wurden auf den Weg gebracht; eine Vielzahl von Medien, wie Zeitungen, Verlage und eine neue Rundfunkanstalt wurden gegründet.2.2.2, Die Ära des gesellschaftlichen Aufschwungs:Durch die in den 1950er und 1960er Jahren vor allem in Westeuropa einsetzende ökonomische Wachstumsphase erlebte
    Abstract: Österreich einen außergewöhnlich expansiven Arbeitsmarkt, der Basis für die anwachsenden Beschäftigtenzahlen war die Erwerbsarbeit von Müttern nahm ebenfalls zu und sowohl die privaten Einkommen als auch die staatlichen Einnahmen günstig beeinflusste. Als weitere Metabolismen in diese Zeit fallen, dass die Stadtplanung besonders prosperierte, dass sich durch Reformen die Bildungsexpansion beschleunigte und die Massenuniversität entstand, und auch, dass die Gewerkschaften zu Machtgefügen mutierten. Im Klima des überdurchschnittlichen Wirtschaftswachstums entwickelt sich der Staat nun zum sozialen Akteur, der sein Augenmerk auch auf ökonomische Gesichtspunkte der jeweiligen Wirtschaftslage legt, um soziale Risken entsprechend zu regulieren. Die Tätigkeiten der Sozialpolitik sind auf Öffentlichkeit, Institutionen und Prozesse aufgeteilt: Arbeitsministerium, Arbeitsämter, Konjunkturprogramme, Ausbau des öffentlichen Dienstes, d.h. für jene Dienstleistungen, die nicht über den Markt angeboten werden.In der Ära des Umbruchs und des Aufschwungs auch als letzte Hochblüte der Industriegesellschaft zu orten entwickelte sich ein weiterer Wandel, d.h. eine Werteveränderung: Die gesellschaftlichen Stratifizierungen zwischen Bürger-/Kleinbürgertum, bäuerlichem und Arbeiter-Milieu verloren an Bedeutung. Ebenso neu waren die Entwicklungen zu mehr Selbstverwirklichung in der Arbeit, mehr Permissivität in der Familie und die verstärkte Zunahme von Säkularisierung. Die boomende Wirtschaft war auch der Beginn der Arbeitsimmigration, und eine Erwartungshaltung baute sich auf, dass alles unvermindert weiterhin anhält. Retrospektiv ist zu konstatieren, dass diese prosperierende Epoche ihre Begründung im Zweiten Weltkrieg und dem folgenden Wiederaufbau in Europa hatte. Wie die Erkenntnis zeigt, ist es in dieser Aufbruchstimmung zu schwerwiegenden Fehlentscheidungen mit
    Abstract: nachhaltigen Auswirkungen gekommen, wie z.B. dem radikalen und menschenunfreundlichen Städtebau oder dem an traditionellen Familien und Erwerbslebensläufen ausgerichteten Wohlfahrtsstaat. 2.3, Neuordnungen und Herausforderungen ab 1970:2.3.1, Diachrones zum Kontext:Im Kapitel 1 wurden die ersten gesetzlich kodifizierten sozialen Sicherungssysteme dargestellt, die das Fundament des heutigen Wohlfahrtsstaates prägten. Ganz generell ist hierzu festzustellen, dass es Ende des 19. und frühen 20. Jahrhunderts zwar zu einer sukzessiven Ausweitung des geschützten Personenkreises kam, was jedoch nicht impliziert, dass die gesetzlichen Sozialleistungen generös für die EmpfängerInnen ausfielen. Vielmehr wurde für viele besonders für Frauen damit nur ein mageres Zubrot zum Lebensunterhalt gewährleistet, wie insbesondere auch für Standard-LeistungsbezieherInnen einer gesetzlichen Altersrente. Wenn also von einer epochenhaften Bedeutung der ersten staatlichen Sozialpolitikgesetze gesprochen wird, weil diese retrospektiv gesehen auch die wohlfahrtsstaatlichen Regierungstätigkeiten begründeten, können die sozialpolitischen Leistungsstandards vergleichsweise dazu während der zweiten Hälfte des 20. Jahrhunderts nicht außer Acht gelassen werden. Und zwar deshalb, da sich die ersten gesetzlichen Sozialleistungen und deren aktive Umsetzung in den Dezennien nach ihrer Implementierung ganz wesentlich von jenen unterschieden, die rund ein Jahrhundert später das Leistungsspektrum des modernen Wohlfahrtsstaates kennzeichneten, was mit dem basalen Wandel in Bezug auf die wirtschaftlichen Lebensverhältnisse und Zielvorstellungen in Hinblick auf die politischen Leitkonzeptionen zu begründen ist. Erst im Laufe der zweiten Hälfte des 20. Jahrhunderts hat sich eine Tendenz von sozialpolitische Maßnahmen durchgesetzt, die endlich Leistungen eines einigermaßen
    Abstract: lebensnahen Einkommensersatzes beinhalteten und zweitens ein gesichertes Existenzminimum aus individuellen Ansprüchen gewährleisteten. Biographische InformationenFriedrich Geber, geboren 1947, begann kurz vor Ende seiner beruflichen Laufbahn Politikwissenschaft und Zeitgeschichte zu studieren. Er erlangte neben dem Master of Arts auch den Mag. Dr. phil. Der Autor interessiert sich besonders für die Sozialpolitik und eignete sich in mehr als 30 Jahren in Leitungspositionen, besondere Kenntnisse in der Wirtschaft an. Seine fundierten Analysen und Studien vermittelt er dem interessierten Fachpublikum durch Buchveröffentlichungen, die aktuell und zeitkritisch mit dem Blick auf das Ganze, die Problematiken aktiver Sozialpolitik in Wohlfahrtsstaaten fokussieren. Auch im vorliegenden Buch spannt der Autor einen zeitrelevanten Bogen, in Bezug auf die Entwicklungen und Herausforderungen, sowie die Kurswechsel-Notwendigkeiten gegenwärtiger Sozialpolitik.

    Abstract: The Problem of the Color Line at the Turn of the Twentieth Century: The Essential Early Essays assembles essential essays by William Edward Burghardt Du Bois- thinker, writer, scholar, activist, leader- from half a dozen years on each side, respectively, of the turning of the twentieth century, from 1894 to early 1906. In this essays are the first formulations of some of Du Bois's most famous ideas, namely, "the veil," "double-consciousness," and the "problem of the color line." Clustered around the turn of the century, they comprise a kind of essential companion to The Souls of Black Folk: Essays and Sketches.

    Abstract: Wie sieht das Leben der Menschen in den deutschen Städten und Gemeinden heute (schon) aus? Zu den demographischen Entwicklungen in Deutschland liegt bereits umfangreiches Datenmaterial vor. Doch was bedeuten diese Daten und Fakten konkret? Das E-Book "Eine demographische Reise durch Deutschland" macht den demographischen Wandel anhand von Reportagen nachvollziehbar. Menschen erzählen hier aus ihrem beruflichen oder privaten Leben: von ihrem Leben als Familie in einer wachsenden Metropolregion wie Hamburg oder als Hochaltrige auf dem Land, in einem sozial-ökologischen Wohnprojekt oder mit rollenden Supermärkten.

    Abstract: Die »imagined gay community« im Weimarer Berlin: Ein früher Freiraum homosexueller Kultur in Deutschland. Während seiner Zeit in Berlin 1929 traf der englische Schriftsteller W. H. Auden in der Straßenbahn eine Frau, die mit ihm zu flirten begann. In seinem unpublizierten »Berliner Tagebuch« beschreibt der angehende Dichter seine imaginäre Antwort: »Ich wollte ihr sagen: Ich bin schwul«. Obwohl Auden kaum Deutsch sprach, konnte er jene perfekte Erwiderung in einer Berliner Mundart formulieren. Die Wahl seiner Worte zeigt dabei sein Bewusstsein für die eigene sexuelle Orientierung. Das Weimarer Berlin wird schon lange als Spielplatz sexueller Minderheiten gehandelt. Die Hauptstadtabenteuer ausländischer und auch deutscher Besucher waren jedoch mehr als bloßer »Sex-Tourismus«. Das Berlin zur Zeit der Weimarer Republik war insofern einzigartig, als es Auden, seinen Freunden und Gleichgesinnten wie kein anderer Ort sonst erlaubte, Selbstbewusstsein und Sensibilität zu entwickeln. So boten die lebhafte wissenschaftliche Erforschung der Homosexualität, der juristische Reformaktivismus sowie das offene homosexuelle Milieu mit eigenständigen Medien und eigenem Nachtleben Raum für die Entwicklung einer homosexuellen Identität des Individuums wie auch der »imagined gay community«.   Biographische Informationen Robert Beachy, geb. 1965, Associate Professor für Geschichte am Goucher College (Baltimore, Maryland).   Reihe Hirschfeld-Lectures - Band 6.

    Abstract: With its emphasis on the primacy of change, this study arrives at a particularly auspicious moment, as the Middle East continues to be convulsed by the greatest upheavals in generations, which have come to be known as the Arab Spring. Originally prepared as the tenth-anniversary volume of the UNDP's Arab Human Development Report, Arab Human Development in the Twenty-first Century places empowerment at the center of human development in the Arab world, viewing it not only from the vantage point of a more equitable distribution of economic resources but also of fundamental legal, educational, and political reform. The ten chapters in this book follow closely this political economy framework. They look back at what Arab countries have achieved since the early 2000s and forward to what remains to be done to reach full development. Supported by a wealth of statistical material, they cover the rule of law, the evolution of media, the persistence of corruption, the draining of resources through armed conflict, the dominance and increase of poverty, the environment, and religious education. The concluding chapter attempts an inventory of the world literature and different experiences on democratic transition to explore where the region could be heading. This critical and timely study is indispensable reading to development specialists and to Middle East scholars and students alike, as well as to anyone with an interest in the future trajectory of the region.

    Abstract: In 2014, Peirce will have been dead for one hundred years. The book will celebrate this extraordinary, prolific thinker and the relevance of his idea for semiotics, communication, and cognitive studies. More importantly, however, it will provide a major statement of the current status of Peirce's work within semiotics. The volume will be a contribution to both semiotics and Peirce studies.
