    Keywords: Foucault, Michel ; Zivilgesellschaft ; Biopolitik ; Civil society ; Biopolitics
    Abstract: The aim of this book is to explain what makes the contemporary discourse of biopolitics essential both to the understanding and to the critique of modern civil society, as developed from Hegel and Marx up to Arendt, Foucault and Agamben. The book seeks to identify the affirmative political potential found in the biopolitical category of natality, and its relation to both normality and normativity, within and between each sphere of civil society.

    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: What is to be made of the outcry when newly issued recycling 'wheelie' bins are discovered to contain microchips for weighing and evaluating householders' rubbish? The angry accusations that speed cameras are generating excessive income for the government? These increasingly widespread reactions to ordinary events and everyday phenomena share a common theme. This book takes these concerns as the starting point for exploring the ways in which relations of governance and accountability in contemporary life are organized around ordinary, everyday pervasive objects and technologies.

    Abstract: Mit der Einführung des AFG 1969 wurde die aktive Arbeitsmarktpolitik in Deutschland nicht nur als Instrument des Marktausgleichs kodifiziert, sondern diese als ein ‚emanzipatorisches Projekt' in den sozialpolitischen Kontext der Bundesrepublik eingeführt. Seitdem hat sie - in mehreren Etappen - einen tief greifenden Gestaltwandel erfahren, bis hin zur jüngsten Revision ihres Instrumentariums und ihrer Leistungsseite. In 24 Kapiteln bietet dieser Band eine Analyse der Grundprinzipien der deutschen Arbeitsmarktpolitik, analysiert die einzelnen Teilbereiche unter dem Aspekt einer veränderten Grundlogik, hinterfragt die veränderten Steuerungslogiken und die Rolle der beteiligten Akteure und thematisiert Herausforderungen, auf die die Arbeitsmarktpolitik zukünftig reagieren muss.

    Abstract: Spätestens mit Beginn der Finanzkrise ist das Thema Wirtschaftswachstum und damit Wertschöpfung in den Vordergrund des öffentlichen Interesses gerückt. Die anhaltende Diskussion um begrenzte Ressourcen und den demografischen Wandel verstärkt in Teilen der Gesellschaft das Misstrauen gegenüber dem sogenannten „Wirtschaftswachstum". Dieser Band diskutiert die Frage, wie wohlstandsmehrendes Wachstum bei begrenzten Ressourcen und den anstehenden demografischen Veränderungen möglich ist und plädiert für eine neue Art von Wachstum: Wachstum, das einerseits den Wohlstand und das Beschäftigungsniveau in Deutschland sichert, andererseits nicht ausschließlich auf endliche Ressourcen angewiesen ist. Für dieses „neue" Wachstum, das nicht nur auf „mehr vom Selben" basiert, spielt die Innovationsfähigkeit Deutschlands eine große Rolle, wie der vorliegende Band anhand von Beispielen verdeutlicht.

    Abstract: In a world obsessed with the virtual, tangible things are once again making history. Tangible Things invites readers to look closely at the things around them, ordinary things like the food on their plate and extraordinary things like the transit of planets across the sky. It argues that almost any material thing, when examined closely, can be a link beween present and past. The authors of this book pulled an astonishing array of materials out of storage--from a pencil manufactured by Henry David Thoreau to a bracelet made from iridescent beetles--in a wide range of Harvard University collecti...

    Abstract: The quality of working life has been central to the sociological agenda for several decades, and has also been increasingly salient as a policy issue, and for companies. This book breaks new ground in the study of the quality of work by providing a rigorous comparative assessment of the way it has been affected by the economic crisis. It examines the implications of the crisis on developments in skills and training, employees' control over their jobs, and the pressure of work and job security.

    Abstract: Ghosh presents a new portrait of Max Weber, one of the most prestigious social theorists in recent history, using his most famous work, 'The Protestant Ethic and the 'Spirit' of Capitalism', as its central point of reference. It offers an intellectual biography of Weber framed along historical lines. It re-evaluates ''The Protestant Ethic' - a text surprisingly neglected by scholars - supplying a missing intellectual and chronological centre to Weber's life and work

    Abstract: Heutzutage ist es für den Menschen fast unmöglich geworden, sich dem Einfluss von Internet, Informationssystemen, Applikationen und der Internet Cloud zu entziehen. Aus diesem Grund lernten in den vergangenen zehn Jahren nach und nach auch viele Unternehmen, dass es mit der Nutzung der technologischen Fortschritte einfacher werden würde, die Bedürfnisse des wichtigsten Bestandteiles in der Marktwirtschaft zu erfahren und zu erfüllen: die des Kunden.Auch im Tourismus versuchen die Leistungsträger der touristischen Wertschöpfungskette das Internet, vor allem in Verbindung mit dem Handy der neuen Generation, Smartphone genannt, zu ihren Gunsten zu nutzen. Die westlich orientierte Informations- bzw. Wissensgesellschaft des 21. Jahrhunderts ist vor allem durch Mobilität gekennzeichnet. Sie entwickelt außerdem ein Bedürfnis nach zeit- und ortsunabhängigen Informationsdiensten. So sind mobile Dienste und Services in der Lage, den Touristen mit nötigen Informationen über ein Reisegebiet, auch vor Ort als sogenannter mobiler Reiseführer, zu versorgen.Doch inwieweit haben mobile Reiseführer einen Einfluss auf den Tourismus und eine Zukunft in dieser Branche? Diese Fragestellung soll im Rahmen der vorliegenden Studie untersucht. Auszug aus dem TextTextprobe:Kapitel 4.2, Idealnutzer von mobilen Reiseführern:Gemäß der Studie 'YOC Mobile Indikator 1/2010' nutzen insgesamt 88% der Studienteilnehmer mehrmals täglich bzw. täglich das mobile Internet und haben bereits einmal eine Applikation auf ihrem Smartphone installiert. Außerdem geben 74% der Befragten an, dass das Mobiltelefon nicht mehr aus der Freizeitgestaltung wegzudenken ist.Es wird angenommen, dass ein mobiler Reiseführer primär von einem Reisenden genutzt wird. So wird also von einem zeitweiligen Besucher eines Landes, der sich für mindestens 24 Stunden außerhalb seines Wohnortes aufhält als...
    Abstract: Leistungsempfänger ausgegangen. Des Weiteren kann der Travel App User in Geschäftsreisenden oder Urlaubsreisenden unterteilt werden. Da in der Literatur meistens als Reisemotiv eines Touristen die Freizeit, Erholung, Ferien oder der Urlaub genannt werden, geht man von einem Urlaubsreisenden als Tourist im engeren Sinn aus. Folglich besteht die Zielgruppe mobiler Reiseführer aus Urlaubsreisenden, die aus Vergnügen und Interesse Ihren Aufenthalt an einem fremden Ort verbringen.Ferner wird angenommen, dass der User eines mobilen Reiseführers der Besitzer eines Smartphones, zum Beispiel eines iPhones, ist. Weltweit gibt es über vier Milliarden Mobiltelefone (Bitkom, 2010). Laut der 'Go Smart Studie' nutzen 11 Prozent der Deutschen ein Smartphone, das entspricht rund 9 Millionen deutschen Smartphone-Besitzern und 23 Prozent, also fast 2 Millionen von ihnen, befinden sich mit dem Gerät täglich mobil im Internet. Da die Technologie immer fortschrittlicher wird, rechnet die Studie mit mindestens mit einer Verdopplung der Smartphone-Besitzer innerhalb der nächsten zwei Jahre. Damit zeigt sich, dass mobiles Internet und Smartphones längst kein Nischenphänomen mehr sind.Doch wer sind diese Nutzer und was für Eigenschaften müssen sie mitbringen, um Smartphones bzw. deren Applikationen nutzen zu können? All diese Fragen werden in der folgenden Beschreibung des imaginären Idealnutzers von mobilen Reiseführern beantwortet.Der erste Schritt bei der Vorstellung eines Prototyps für ReiseApp-Benutzer ist die soziodemographische Zuordnung der Person. Die Untersuchung von Merkmalen, wie zum Beispiel dem Alter oder der Einkommensstruktur der Person ist maßgebend für die Definition des Smartphone-Users und somit des ReiseApp-Benutzers.Laut der Marktstudie von NielsenMobile, dem weltweit größten Marktforschungsunternehmen im Bereich des Mobilfunks, sind iPhone-Nutzer zu
    Abstract: 73 Prozent männlich und jünger als 35 Jahre, fast die Hälfte ist ledig und war nie verheiratet. Der Prototyp von Personen, die ein Smartphone besitzen, eine Applikation herunterladen und benutzen wird i. d. R. in einem berufstätigen Alter zwischen ca. 20 und 60 Jahren sein, da er eine gewisse Kaufkraft für den Kauf eines iPhones benötigt. Da diese intelligenten Mobiltelefone ein relativ neues Produkt auf dem weltweiten Technikmarkt sind und mit Hilfe der technologischen Fortschritte immer neue Produktentwicklungen und Produktdiversifikationen entstehen, muss man für den Kauf des neuesten iPhones, iPhone 4S, in etwa 629 Euro aufwenden. Dies setzt einen gewissen Einkommensstandard und diesbezüglich ein hohes Bildungsniveau voraus. Außerdem wird das Smartphone häufig für Geschäftsleute als Geschäftsmobiltelefon verwendet, da es nützliche Applikationen, wie etwa die E-Mail und Kalendersynchronisierung, für den betrieblichen Gebrauch beinhaltet.Jedoch schließt wird die soziodemographische Gruppe der Studenten nicht aus dieser Sparte ausgeschlossen, da diese häufiger Nebentätigkeiten nachgehen und immer mehr zu dem einkommenskräftigen Cluster der Bevölkerung dazugehören. Auch der psychologische Hintergrund ist vor allem in dieser Zielgruppe zu beachten, da sich das iPhone als aussagekräftiges Statusprodukt etabliert und die öffentliche Benutzung und Zur-Schau-Stellung der Marke Apple verbreitet hat. Außerdem ist der 'Student von heute' ein reiselustiger, informations-und medienabhängiger, wissensbegieriger, technisch affiner Mitzwanziger, der sein Smartphone und dessen Applikationen für die alltägliche Problemlösung vor allem an fremden Orten benutzt, sodass er auf Reisen vermutlich einen mobilen Reiseführer verwendet.Das iPhone wird oft als einfach zu nutzendes Smartphone verkauft. Entgegen aller verkaufsstrategischen Meinungen können Touchscreen,
    Abstract: Applikationsdownload- und Installation oder mobile Internetverbindung u. a. einem Laien zum Verhängnis bei der Benutzung werden, denn hinsichtlich der Usability, der Benutzerfreundlichkeit, von technisch-nicht-affinen Nutzern ist das iPhone wie ein kleinerer Computer. Ein Großteil der Bevölkerung im Alter 50 Plus besitzt kein Interesse an mobilen Applikationen oder benutzt aus Gewohnheit eher die Printmedien als Reiseführer. Sogar für jüngere Personen sind der Download aus dem AppStore mit Hinterlegung der Kontodaten und die spätere Installation der Anwendung auf dem iPhone zu aufwändig oder kompliziert. Außerdem ist der Touchscreen eine neue Erfindung und dessen Verwendung kann oftmals irritierend für Best Agers sein, da diese meistens überhaupt kein Mobiltelefon besitzen. Auch die kleine Tastatur und der strukturelle Aufbau des iPhones kann für ältere Generationen ein Problem und Überforderung hervorrufen. Biographische InformationenSaskia Conrad wurde 1990 in München geboren. Ihr Studium im Tourismus-Management an der Hochschule München schloss die Autorin im Jahre 2012 mit dem akademischen Grad des Bachelor of Arts erfolgreich ab. Bereits während des Studiums sammelte die Autorin umfassende praktische Erfahrungen in der Tourismus-Branche. Fasziniert von den umfangreichen Möglichkeiten des Marketingmanagements, erweitert Saskia Conrad ihren Horizont mit einem berufsbegleitenden Masterstudium in Marketing & Communication an der Fachhochschule für Ökonomie und Management in München. Ihre Tätigkeit im Online Marketing motivierten sie, sich der Thematik des vorliegenden Buches zu widmen.

    Abstract: The Hegelian-Marxist idea of alienation fell out of favour after the postmetaphysical rejection of humanism and essentialist views of human nature. In this work, Rachel Jaeggi draws on the Hegelian philosophical tradition, phenomenological analyses grounded in modern conceptions of agency, and recent work in the analytical tradition to reconceive alienation as the absence of a meaningful relationship to oneself and others, which manifests in feelings of helplessness and the despondent acceptance of ossified social roles and expectations.

    Abstract: Anthropologie ist der Versuch des Menschen, nach seinem Wesen und seiner Natur zu fragen sowie seine Herkunft und Möglichkeiten zu ergründen. Während sich Philosophen schon immer mit diesem Thema beschäftigt haben, sind im 20. Jahrhundert viele Disziplinen hinzugekommen. Der Autor beschreibt anhand von 35 biografischen und werkanalytischen Erörterungen, wie sich Ärzte und Philosophen im 20. Jahrhundert auf die Suche nach der „Formel des Menschen" begeben haben. Dabei setzt er sich mit den verschiedenen Denkrichtungen kritisch auseinander.

    Abstract: Nostalgia is intimately connected to the history of the social sciences in general and anthropology in particular, though finely grained ethnographies of nostalgia and loss are still scarce. Today, anthropologists have realized that nostalgia constitutes a fascinating object of study for exploring contemporary issues of the formation of identity in politics and history. Contributors to this volume consider the fabric of nostalgia in the fields of heritage and tourism, exile and diasporas, postcolonialism and postsocialism, business and economic exchange, social, ecological and religious movements, and nation building. They contribute to a better understanding of how individuals and groups commemorate their pasts, and how nostalgia plays a role in the process of remembering.

    Abstract: Intercultural dialogue is often invoked in vague reference to a method that can build cross-cultural understanding and facilitate global policy-making. This book clarifies the theoretical foundations of intercultural dialogue and demonstrates the practical significance of intercultural value inquiry, combining the perspectives of philosophy, conflict research, religious studies, and education.

    Abstract: Kommunikation ist alles - insbesondere im Führungsalltag. Nur wer seine Wirkung auf Mitarbeiter einschätzen und authentisch einsetzen kann, wird andere Menschen  überzeugen und sie für gemeinsame Ziele gewinnen.  Im Mittelpunkt dieses Buches steht die Vermittlung pragmatischer und sofort einsetzbarer Kommunikationswerkzeuge, um im Gespräch zu motivieren, Vorwände zu hinterfragen und Konflikte zu entschärfen. Das Buch vertieft und systematisiert Menschenkenntnis und macht deutlich, wie man seine individuelle Überzeugungskraft erhöht. Die Autoren liefern keine Patenlösungen, sondern zeigen anhand von Führungssituationen aus dem Alltag einer erfolgreichen Managerin, wie man mit den richtigen kommunikativen Mitteln seinen Führungsalltag besser meistert und Fallstricke vermeidet.

    Abstract: This volume traces the idea of a world population problem as it evolved from the 1920s to the 1960s. Growth and distribution of the human population over the planet's surface came to shape deeply the characterisation of 'civilisations' with different standards of living. It forged the very ideas of development, demographically defined three worlds, and, for some, an aspirational 'one world'. Drawing on conference transcripts and personal & organisational archives, this book reconstructs the 20th century population problem in terms of migration, colonial expansion, globalisation, and world food plans.

    Abstract: Kok-Chor Tan addresses three key questions in egalitarian distributive justice: Where does distributive equality matter?; Why does it matter?; And among whom does it matter? He argues for an institutional site for egalitarian justice, and suggests that the mitigation of arbitrariness or luck is the basis for distributive commitments. He also argues that distributive obligations are global in scope, applying between individuals across borders. Tan's objectives are tripartite: to clarify the basis of an institutional approach to justice; to establish luck egalitarianism as an account of the ground of equality; and to realize the global nature of egalitarian justice. The outcome is 'institutional luck egalitarianism'-a new cosmopolitan position on distributive justice.

    Abstract: Over the past half-century, El Salvador has transformed dramatically. Historically reliant on primary exports like coffee and cotton, the country emerged from a brutal civil war in 1992 to find much of its national income now coming from a massive emigrant workforce that earns money in the US and sends it home. In this work, Pedersen examines this new way of life as it extends across two places: Intipucā, a Salvadoran town infamous for its remittance wealth, and the Washington, DC metro area.

    Abstract: This revision of a best selling research methods textbook introduces social science methods as applied broadly to the study of issues that arise as part of organizational life. These include issues involving organizational participants such as managers, teachers, customers, patients and clients, and transactions within and between organizations. In this new edition, chapter 19 now focuses on describing the modeling process and outcomes. An entirely new chapter 20 now addresses challenges to modeling. It goes substantially beyond a discussion of statistical inference. It also discusses issues in interpreting variance, explained estimates, and standardized and unstandardized regression coefficients. A new capstone chapter 21 helps students recognize good research. This textbook is accompanied by an Instructor's Manual for course use.

    Abstract: The politics of food is changing fast. In rich countries, obesity is now a more serious problem than hunger. Consumers once satisfied with cheap and convenient food now want food that is also safe, nutritious, fresh, and grown by local farmers using fewer chemicals. Heavily subsidized and underregulated commercial farmers are facing stronger push back from environmentalists and consumer activists, and food companies are under the microscope. Meanwhile, agricultural success in Asia has spurred income growth and dietary enrichment, but agricultural setbacks in Africa have left one-third of all c

    Keywords: Durkheim, Émile ; Kunst ; Wissenschaftliche Schule ; Aufsatzsammlung ; Aufsatzsammlung
    Abstract: Using a broad definition of the Durkheimian tradition, this book offers the first systematic attempt to explore the Durkheimians' engagement with art. It focuses on both Durkheim and his contemporaries as well as later thinkers influenced by his work. The first five chapters consider Durkheim's own exploration of art; the remaining six look at other Durkheimian thinkers, including Marcel Mauss, Henri Hubert, Maurice Halbwachs, Claude Levi-Strauss, Michel Leiris, and Georges Bataille. The contributors-scholars from a range of theoretical orientations and disciplinary perspectives-are known for having already produced significant contributions to the study of Durkheim. This book will interest not only scholars of Durkheim and his tradition but also those concerned with aesthetic theory and the sociology and history of art.

    Keywords: Geschichte ; Tod ; Gemeinschaft ; Politische Philosophie ; Thanatologie ; Zwischenmenschliche Beziehung ; Sozialphilosophie
    Abstract: Spätestens seit der Lehre vom Naturzustand, die Thomas Hobbes auf so folgenreiche Weise ausgearbeitet hat, steht die Todesproblematik im Zentrum der politischen Philosophie. Denn unter der Bedingung einer geringeren Eindämmung durch Jenseitsfiktionen erscheint die Absolutheit des Todes nicht nur als eine angstbesetzte Bedrohung, sondern zugleich auch als das, was die politische Ordnung aufrecht erhält. Mit der Fundierung der Gemeinschaft in einer Todesdrohung, die alle angeht, taucht jedoch zugleich eine neue Problematik auf: die Zersetzung der Gemeinschaft, der wiederum allein durch den Horizont einer kollektiven Todesdrohung entgegengewirkt werden kann. Ausgehend von dieser Problematik, zeichnet die Studie von Leander Scholz am Leitfaden politischer Thanatologien den historischen Umbau von einer politischen Theologie zur politischen Ökonomie nach, sowie die Umformung der politischen Ökonomie zu einer politischen Ökologie. Hierbei steht die Formierung eines Lebenswillens im Vordergrund, der nicht mehr bereit ist, die Verinnerlichung der Todesdrohung als Horizont seiner Selbstbehauptung anzuerkennen.

    Keywords: Sozioökonomisches System ; Neue Technologie ; Sektoraler Strukturwandel ; Technik ; Innovation
    Abstract: Scientific concepts on the co-evolution of technology and society, as well as recent sociotechnical system approaches, focus on the general interrelations between technology, socioeconomic structures, and institutions. Their aim is to study and explain processes and modes of technological change. Rarely, however, have answers been put forward on the related question of processes of socioeconomic and institutional change, provoked by emerging new technological opportunities and constraints. The Transformative Capacity of New Technologies redresses this imbalance, exploring the questions: how and to what extent do socioeconomic structures, institutions, and actors change under the influence of new technologies? how do they react to technology-induced pressures to change? what patterns do they adopt?The book provides theoretical considerations as well as practical tools for analyzing and classifying exceptional periods of substantial sociotechnical change. It examines the literature on path-dependency and path-creation, on organizational and institutional change, and on sociotechnical transitions. Case studies on subjects such as the pharmaceutical industry, the music industry, the energy sector, and scientific publishing support the theoretical analysis. The book will be of interest to students and scholars of sociology, science and technology studies, work and industry studies, and management of technology and innovation.

    Keywords: Chinesen ; Aufsatzsammlung
    Abstract: With around 40 million people worldwide, the ethnic Chinese and the Chinese in diaspora form the largest diaspora in the world. The economic reform of China which began in the late 1970s marked a huge phase of migration from China, and the new migrants, many of whom were well educated, have had a major impact on the local societies and on China. This is the first interdisciplinary Handbook to examine the Chinese diaspora, and provides a comprehensive analysis of the processes and effects of Chinese migration under the headings of: Population and distribution Mainland China and Taiwanâs policies on the Chinese overseas Migration: past and present Economic and political involvement Localization, transnational networks and identity Education, literature and media The Routledge Handbook of the Chinese Diaspora brings together a significant number of specialists from a number of diverse disciplines and covers the major areas of the study of Chinese overseas. This Handbook is therefore an important and valuable reference work for students, scholars and policy makers worldwide who wish to understand the global phenomena of Chinese migration, transnational connections and their cultural and identity transformation.

    Abstract: Most people take the conditions they work and live in as a given, believing it to be normal that societies are stratified and that organisations are hierarchical. Many even think that this is the way it should be - and are neither willing nor able to think that it could be otherwise. This book raises the awareness of hierarchy, its complexity and longevity. It focuses on a single but fundamental problem of social systems such as dyads, groups, organisations and whole societies: Why and how does hierarchical social order persist over time? In order to investigate the question, author Thomas Diefenbach develops a general theory of the persistence of hierarchical social order. This theory interrogates the problem of the persistence of hierarchical social order from very different angles, in multi-dimensional and interdisciplinary ways. Even more crucially, it traces the very causes of the phenomenon, the reasons and interests behind hierarchy as well as the various mechanisms which keep it going.This is the first time such a theory is attempted. With the help of the theory developed in this book, it is possible to interrogate systematically, comprehensively and in detail how mindsets and behaviours as well as societal and organisational structures enable the continuation of hierarchy.

    Abstract: The Routledge Companion to Advertising and Promotional Culture provides an essential guide to the key issues, methodologies, concepts, debates, and policies that shape our everyday relationship with advertising. The book contains eight sections: Historical Perspectives considers the historical roots and their relationship to recent changes of contemporary advertising and promotional practice. Political Economy examines how market forces, corporate ownership, and government policies shape the advertising and media promotion environment. Globalization presents work on advertising and marketing as a global, intercultural, and transnational practice. Audiences as Labor, Consumers, Interpreters, Fans introduces how people construct promotional meaning and are constructed as consumers, markets, and labor by advertising forces. Identities analyzes the ways that advertising constructs images and definitions of groups -- such as gender, race and the child -- through industry labor practices, marketing, as well as through representation in advertising texts. Social Institutions looks at the pervasiveness of advertising strategies in different social domains, including politics, music, housing, and education. Everyday Life highlights how a promotional ethos and advertising initiatives pervade self image, values, and relationships. The Environment interrogates advertising's relationship to environmental issues, the promotional efforts of corporations to construct green images, and mass consumption's relationship to material waste. With chapters written by leading international scholars working at the intersections of media studies and advertising studies, this book is a go-to source for those looking to understand the ways advertising has shaped consumer culture, in the past and present.

    Abstract: The International Encyclopedia of Economic Sociology is the first encyclopedia in the field and a timely response to the surge of interest in economic sociology over the last 30 years. Economic Sociology deals with the multiple and complex relations between economy and society. In particular, it focuses on the impact of social, political and cultural factors on economic behaviour. The Encyclopedia gives comprehensive and accessible coverage of the wide range of areas and subjects covered by the field, including, amongst many others, such major topics as consumption, corruption, democracy and economy, ecology, embeddedness, gender and economy, globalization, industrial relations, law and economy, markets, organization theory, political economy, religion and economic life, social capital, the sociology of money, state and economy, trust, and work. The International Encyclopedia of Economic Sociology is the much-needed major reference work on one of the richest areas of development in the social sciences in recent years. It is an extremely valuable new resource for students and researchers in sociology, economics, political science, and business, organization and management studies. Entries are cross-referenced and carry compact bibliographies. There is a full index.

    Keywords: Habermas, Jürgen ; Kritische Theorie ; Feminismus ; Aufsatzsammlung
    Abstract: This important new collection considers Jurgen Habermas's discourse theory from a variety of feminist vantage points. Habermas's theory represents one of the most persuasive current formulations of moral and political notions of subjectivity and normativity. Feminist scholars have been drawn to his work because it reflects a tradition of emancipatory political thinking rooted in the Enlightenment and engages with the normative aims of emancipatory social movements. The essays in Feminists Read Habermas analyze various aspects of Habermas's theory, ranging from his moral theory to political issues of identity and participation. While the contributors hold widely different political and philosophical views, they share a conviction of the potential significance of Habermas's work for feminist reflections on power, norms and subjectivity.

    Abstract: This book focuses on material culture as a subject of philosophical inquiry and promotes the philosophical study of material culture by articulating some of the central and difficult issues raised by this topic and providing innovative solutions to them, most notably an account of improvised action and a non-intentionalist account of function in material culture. Preston argues that material culture essentially involves activities of production and use; she therefore adopts an action-theoretic foundation for a philosophy of material culture. Part 1 illustrates this foundation through a critique, revision, and extension of existing philosophical theories of action. Part 2 investigates a salient feature of material culture itself-its functionality. A basic account of function in material culture is constructed by revising and extending existing theories of biological function to fit the cultural case. Here the adjustments are for the most part necessitated by special features of function in material culture. These two parts of the project are held together by a trio of overarching themes: the relationship between individual and society, the problem of centralized control, and creativity.

    Abstract: There are increasingly strident calls from many sectors of society for the tourism industry, the world's largest industry, to adopt a more ethical approach to the way it does business. In particular there has been an emphasis placed on the need for a more ethical approach to the way the tourism industry interacts with consumers, the environment, with indigenous peoples, those in poverty, and those in destinations suffering human rights abuses. This book introduces students to the important topic of tourism ethics and illustrates how ethical principles and theory can be applied to address contemporary tourism industry issues. A critical role of the book is to highlight the ethical challenges in the tourism industry and to situate tourism ethics within wider contemporary discussions of ethics in general. Integrating theory and practice the book analyses a broad range of topical and relevant tourism ethical issues from the urgent 'big-picture' problems facing the industry as a whole (e.g. air travel and global warming) to more micro-scale everyday issues that may face individual tourism operators, or indeed, individual tourists. The book applies relevant ethical frameworks to each issue, addressing a range of ethical approaches to provide the reader with a firm grounding of applied ethics, from first principles. International case studies with reflective questions at the end are integrated throughout to provide readers with valuable insight into real world ethical dilemmas, encouraging critical analysis of tourism ethical issues as well as ethically determined decisions. Discussion questions and annotated further reading are included to aid further understanding.The Ethics of Tourism: Critical and Applied Perspectives is essential reading for all Tourism students globally.

    Abstract: Agricultural input subsidies were a major feature of development policies in rural economies until the 1980s. Continuing rural poverty with low productivity and fertilizer use in smallholder staple crops has led to their resurgence in Africa. These subsidies are, however, controversial with claims of both large food security benefits and unsustainable, inefficient resource use. This book reviews current theory and evidence on the strengths and weaknesses of these programmes and the effects of programme context, design, and implementation. Theoretical arguments for agricultural subsidies are based on input promotion where farmers' private costs (benefits) are higher (lower) than wider economic costs (benefits). These arguments, and concerns about inefficiency and diversion, are reviewed and extended to consider input affordability constraints and 'smart' rationing and targeting. Recent programmes in Africa have a variety of generally producer-focused objectives, with varied implementation and programme outcomes. Most pay little attention to consumer interests and potential contributions to wider growth. A detailed examination of Malawi's controversial agricultural input subsidy programme follows. Drawing on a wide range of information sources, the political and agro-economic contexts of the programme are examined, with evidence on its implementation and impacts from 2005 to 2011. Positive impacts are recorded on beneficiaries' production, incomes, food consumption, school enrolment, child health, and reduced need for earnings from undertaking casual labour for others. There is evidence of indirect economy-wide impacts, but this is not as strong as might be expected. Targeting and graduation are identified as critically important issues requiring continuing attention

    Abstract: David Lyons challenges us to confront grave injustices committed in the United States, from the colonists' encroachments on Indian lands to slavery and the legacy of racism. He calls upon legal and political theorists to take these social wrongs seriously in their approaches to moral obligation under law and the justification of civil disobedience.

This volume contributes to redressing the balance by drawing together the work of scholars involved in exploring the sociomaterial dimensions of organizational life

    Abstract: This text offers both a naturalistic and critical theory of signs, minds, and meaning-in-the-world. It provides a reconstructive rather than deconstructive theory of the individual, one which both analytically separates and theoretically synthesizes a range of faculties that are often confused and conflated: agency, subjectivity, selfhood, and personhood.

    Abstract: Moira Gatens investigates the ways in which differently sexed bodies can occupy the same social or political space. Representations of sexual difference have unacknowledged philosophical roots which cannot be dismissed as a superficial bias on the part of the philosopher, nor removed without destroying the coherence of the philosophical system concerned. The deep structural bias against women extends beyond metaphysics and its effects are felt in epistemology, moral, social and political theory. The idea of sexual difference is contextualised in Imaginary Bodies and traced through the history of philosophy. Using her work on Spinoza, Gatens develops alternative conceptions of power, new ways of conceiving women's embodiment and their legal, political and ethical status.

    Abstract: The Routledge Handbook of Cultural Tourism explores and critically evaluates the debates and controversies in this field of Tourism. It brings together leading specialists from a range of disciplinary backgrounds and geographical regions, to provide state-of-the-art theoretical reflection and empirical research on this significant stream of tourism and its future direction. The book is divided into 7 inter-related sections. Section 1 looks at the historical, philosophical and theoretical framework for cultural tourism. This section debates tourist autonomy role play, authenticity, imaginaries, cross-cultural issues and inter-disciplinarity Section 2 analyses the role that politics takes in cultural tourism. This section also looks at ways in which cultural tourism is used as a policy instrument for economic development. Section 3 focuses on social patterns and trends, such as the mobilities paradigm, performativity, reflexivity and traditional hospitality, as well as considering sensitive social issues such as dark tourism. Section 4 analyses community and development, exploring adaptive forms of cultural tourism, as well as more sustainble models for indigenous tourism development. Section 5 discusses Landscapes and Destinations, including the transformation of space into place, issues of authenticity in landscape, the transformation of urban and rural landscapes into tourism products and conservation versus development dilemmas. Section 6 refers to Regeneration and Planning, especially the creative turn in cultural tourism, which can be used to avoid problems of serial reproduction, standardisation and homogenisation. Section 7 deals with The Tourist and Visitor Experience, emphasising the desire of tourists to be more actively and interactively engaged in cultural tourism. This significant volume offers the reader a comprehensive synthesis of...
