    Abstract: This theoretically innovative anthology investigates the problematic linkages between conserving cultural heritage, maintaining cultural diversity, defining and establishing cultural citizenship, and enforcing human rights. It is the first publication to address the notions of cultural diversity, cultural heritage and human rights in one volume. Heritage provides the basis of humanity's rich cultural diversity. While there is a considerable literature dealing separately with cultural diversity, cultural heritage and human rights, this book is distinctive and has contemporary relevance in focusing on the intersection between the three concepts. Cultural Diversity, Heritage and Human Rights establishes a fresh approach that will interest students and practitioners alike and on which future work in the heritage field might proceed.

    Abstract: Vom 19. Jahrhundert als einer Mediengesellschaft zu sprechen, erscheint als ein Anachronismus. Der Begriff sucht den Bedeutungsgewinn und die Diversifizierung der Medien in der Gegenwart zu erfassen und damit nicht zuletzt heutige von früheren Gesellschaften abzugrenzen. Die Annahme, dass Medien in früheren Gesellschaften nicht ebenfalls eine zentrale und spezifische Rolle zukam, wäre jedoch irrig. So war das 19. Jahrhundert nicht nur vom Aufstieg einer Vielzahl einstmals neuer Medien geprägt, sondern auch dadurch, dass sich die Gesellschaft über öffentliche und mediale Kommunikation erst konstituierte und ausdifferenzierte. Der Band macht es sich zur Aufgabe, ineinander greifende zentrale mediale und gesellschaftliche Entwicklungen für Deutschland und für Frankreich in einer übergreifenden wie vergleichenden Perspektive vorzustellen.

    Abstract: "Woher kommen wir? Wo liegen die Grenzen unserer Macht über die Natur und wo die Grenzen ihrer Macht über uns? Welcher Zukunft gehen wir entgegen? Das sind die Probleme, die sich jedem, der in diese Welt geboren wird, immer wieder neu und mit unvermindertem Gewicht stellen", schrieb der Biologe Thomas Henry Huxley 1863. Die Fragen nach dem, was den Menschen ausmacht, sind seit Jahrhunderten die gleichen, die Antworten jedoch verändern sich in dem Maß, in dem sich die Wissenschaften wandeln und entwickeln. Dieser Band stellt aus interdisziplinären Perspektiven Menschenbilder vor und mündet in die Frage, ob im 21. Jahrhundert überhaupt noch ein einheitliches Bild vom Menschen denkbar ist.   Biographische Informationen Prof. Dr. W. Vossenkuhl, Prof. Dr. G.D. Borasio, Prof. Dr. B. Grothe, Prof. Dr. F.W.

    Keywords: Eike ; Rezeption ; Rechtsbuch
    Abstract: Hauptbeschreibung Der Sachsenspiegel des Eike von Repgow gehört ohne Frage zu den bedeutendsten Rechtsdenkmälern des deutschen Mittelalters. Diese Bedeutung gewinnt das Werk nicht nur aus sich selbst heraus, sondern vor allem durch seine ganz ungewöhnlich weite, geradezu pan-europäische Verbreitung. Zahlreiche Rechtsbücher nahmen einzelne Rechtssätze bis hin zu umfangreichen Teilen des Spiegels in sich auf und sicherten so die Weiterverbreitung nicht nur weit über die Grenzen seines sächsischen Entstehungsraumes, sondern auch weit über das Mittelalter hinaus. Dieser ungewöhnlichen Karriere geht die vorliegende Arbeit nach. Dabei werden zum einen spätere Rechtsbücher auf den konkreten Umfang der sich in ihnen manifestierenden Sachsenspiegelrezeption befragt, zum anderen eine erste Geschichte des "Sachsenrechts" von der Entstehung eines seiner absoluten Fundamentaltexte im frühen 13. Jahrhundert bis hin in die Gegenwart rechtshistorischer Forschung vorgelegt.   Inhaltsverzeichnis Inhaltsübersicht: A. Einleitung - B.

    Keywords: Augustinus, Aurelius ; Zeit
    Abstract: Das elfte Buch der "Confessiones" führt in die grundlegenden Schwierigkeiten der Frage nach dem Sein der Zeit ein und ist insofern immer noch von systematischem Interesse; es führt zugleich an einer zentralen Frage in das Denken Augustins ein. Augustinus (354-430) hat mit seiner Untersuchung der Frage, was Zeit ist ("quid est enim tempus?"), die Aufmerksamkeit der Philosophen geweckt und großen Einfluß auf deren Gedanken zu Sein und Sinn der Zeit und des Zeitlichen ausgeübt. Vor allem haben sich die Protagonisten der phänomenologischen Schule, Edmund Husserl und Martin Heidegger, intensiv mit diesem Text befaßt. Doch ist das lebhafte Interesse am Thema und am Gedankengang dieses Buches nicht auf Schulgrenzen eingeengt gewesen, sondern sogar bei Forschern zu finden, die eher Antworten auf die physikalischen Fragen nach dem Sein der Zeit gesucht haben. Augustins Besinnung auf das Wesen der Zeit findet sich im elften von dreizehn Büchern seiner "Confessiones" (Bekenntnisse), einem berühmten, gleichwohl voller Rätsel gebliebenen Werk, das er in seinen frühen Bischofsjahren verfaßt hat (396-400). Das elfte Buch mit der Frage nach der Zeit nimmt eine Schlüsselrolle ein, weil es zugleich eine Reflexion über das Gesamtprojekt der "Confessiones" darstellt. Augustinus denkt bemerkenswert eigenständig: Auch wenn er Motive der Platonischen, Aristotelischen und Plotinischen Philosophie aufgreift, gibt er ihnen ein neues Gesicht und weist mit der lebendigen Kraft ursprünglichen Denkens auf transzendentalphilosophische und phänomenologische Motive voraus.   Reihe Philosophische Bibliothek - Band 534.

    Abstract: Hauptbeschreibung Virtuelle Umgebungen umfassen Güter, die Eigenschaften physischer Gegenstände simulieren. Diese Güter sind ihrem Code nach ausschließlich angelegt, in ihrer Inhaberschaft übertragbar und repräsentieren Informationen mit digitalem Funktionswert. Daraus resultiert ein Vermögenswert, der Fragen nach Begründung und Reichweite rechtlichen Schutzes des faktischen Inhabers aufwirft. Entgegen der Virtual Property Theory resultieren die Befugnisse gegenüber dem Betreiber dabei nur aus dem Zusammenspiel faktischer Einwirkungsmöglichkeiten mit der Gesamtheit der dem Verpflichtungsgeschäft immanenten schuldrechtlichen Ansprüche. Im Verhältnis zu Dritten verläuft die Rechtsschutzproblematik aufgrund der Client-Server-Architektur virtueller Umgebungen parallel zu der extern gespeicherter Datenbestände. Die Lösung liegt hier im Zusammenwirken der aktiven Schutzpflichten des Inhabers des Speichermediums mit den Grundsätzen der Drittschadensliquidation.   Inhaltsverzeichnis Inhaltsübersicht: Einleitung: 1: Grundgedanken - Gang der Untersuchung - 1.

    Abstract: Hauptbeschreibung "Innovationsverantwortung" bildet den dritten Band im Rahmen des Projekts "Innovation und Recht". Das Projekt zielt auf eine systematische, trans- und interdisziplinäre Untersuchung des bestehenden Rechts hinsichtlich seiner förderlichen oder hemmenden Einflüsse auf technologische Innovationsprozesse und soll Ansatzpunkte für seine Weiterentwicklung aufzeigen. Der Begriff der Innovationsverantwortung bezieht sich auf Vorkehrungen zur Sicherung der Gemeinwohlverträglichkeit von Innovationen und ist damit Chiffre für eine normative Orientierungen und Vorgaben sichernde Begleitung von Innovationsprozessen. Einleitend werden die Aufgaben und Kapazitäten des Rechts zur Sicherung von Rechtsgütern und rechtlich geschützten oder nur gesellschaftlich anerkannten Interessen bei der Entwicklung von Innovationen ausgelotet. Aus soziologischer und ökonomischer Perspektive werden ferner die übergreifenden Bezugspunkte von Vorsorge und Folgenabschätzung innovationsbezogen konkretisiert. Anschließend werden Referenzgebiete von der Nanotechnologie über Neuroimplantate und grüne Gentechnik bis zum Chemikalienrecht (REACh) und dem Elektrogesetz auf die Verankerung und jeweilige Ausgestaltung einer Innovationsverantwortung hin untersucht. Vor diesem Hintergrund werden dann querschnittsartig die zentralen Elemente der rechtlichen Umhegung von Innovationsprozessen analysiert: Verfahren, Risikokommunikation, Qualitätssicherung, haftungsrechtliche Verantwortungszuweisung und -verteilung, angemessener Instrumentenmix sowie eine dynamische Informationsordnung.   Inhaltsverzeichnis Inhalt: W.

    Keywords: Flüchtling ; Menschenrecht ; Afrika
    Abstract: Of the over 33 million refugees and internally displaced people in the world today, a disproportionate percentage are found in Africa. Most have been driven from their homes by armed strife, displacing people into settings that fail to meet standards for even basic human dignity. Protection of the human rights of these people is highly uncertain and unpredictable. Many refugee service agencies agree advocacy on behalf of the displaced is a key aspect of their task. But those working in the field are so pressed by urgent crises that they can rarely analyze the requirements of advocacy systematically. Yet advocacy must go beyond international law to human rights as an ethical standard to prevent displaced people from falling through the cracks of our conflicted world.Refugee Rights: Ethics, Advocacy, and Africa draws upon David Hollenbach, SJ's work as founder and director of the Center for Human Rights and International Justice at Boston College to provide an analytical framework for vigorous advocacy on behalf of refugees and internally displaced people. Representing both religious and secular perspectives, the contributors are scholars, practitioners, and refugee advocatesùall of whom have spent time on the ground in Africa. The book begins with the poignant narrative of Abebe Feyissa, an Ethiopian refugee who has spent over fifteen years in a refugee camp from hell. Other chapters identify the social and political conditions integral to the plight of refugees and displaced persons. Topics discussed include the fundamental right to freedom of movement, gender roles and the rights of women, the effects of war, and the importance of reconstruction and reintegration following armed conflict. The book concludes with suggestions of how humanitarian groups and international organizations can help mitigate the problem of forced displacement and enforce...
    Abstract: the belief that all displaced people have the right to be treated as their human dignity demands. Refugee Rights offers an important analytical resource for advocates and students of human rights. It will be of particular value to practitioners working in the field.

    Keywords: Soziale Situation ; Kriminalität ; Postkolonialismus ; Gewalt ; Entwicklungsländer ; Aufsatzsammlung
    Abstract: Are postcolonies haunted more by criminal violence than other nation-states? The usual answer is yes. In Law and Disorder in the Postcolony, Jean and John Comaroff and a group of respected theorists show that the question is misplaced: that the predicament of postcolonies arises from their place in a world order dominated by new modes of governance, new sorts of empires, new species of wealth-an order that criminalizes poverty and race, entraps the "south" in relations of corruption, and displaces politics into the realms of the market, criminal economies, and the courts.  As these essays make plain, however, there is another side to postcoloniality: while postcolonies live in states of endemic disorder, many of them fetishize the law, its ways and itsmeans. How is the coincidence of disorder with a fixation on legalities to be explained? Law and Disorder in the Postcolony addresses this question, entering into critical dialogue with such theorists as Benjamin, Agamben, and Bayart. In the process, it also demonstrates how postcolonies have become crucial sites for the production of contemporary theory, not least because they are harbingers of a global future under construction.

    Abstract: Luce Irigaray: Teaching explores ways to confront new issues in education. Three essays by Irigaray herself present the outcomes of her own experiments in this area and develop proposals for teaching people how to coexist in difference, reach self-affection, and rethink the relations between teachers and students. In the last few years, Irigaray has brought together young academics from various countries, universities and disciplines, all of whom were carrying out research into her work. These research students have received personal instruction from Irigaray and at the same time have learnt from one another by sharing with the group their own knowledge and experience. Most of the essays in this book are the result of this dynamic way of learning that fosters rigour in thinking as well as mutual respect for differences. The central themes of the volume focus on five cultural fields: methods of recovery from traumatic personal or cultural experience; the resources that arts offer for dwelling in oneself and with the other(s); the maternal order and feminine genealogy; creative interpretation and embodiment of the divine; and new perspectives in philosophy. This innovative collaborative project between Irigaray and researchers involved in the study of her work gives a unique insight into the topics that have occupied this influential international theorist over the last thirty years.

    Split Decisions : How and Why to Take a Break from Feminism (2008)

    Abstract: Is it time to take a break from feminism? In this pathbreaking book, Janet Halley reassesses the place of feminism in the law and politics of sexuality. She argues that sexuality involves deeply contested and clashing realities and interests, and that feminism helps us understand only some of them. To see crucial dimensions of sexuality that feminism does not reveal--the interests of gays and lesbians to be sure, but also those of men, and of constituencies and values beyond the realm of sex and gender--we might need to take a break from feminism. Halley also invites feminism to abandon its uncritical relationship to its own power. Feminists are, in many areas of social and political life, partners in governance. To govern responsibly, even on behalf of women, Halley urges, feminists should try taking a break from their own presuppositions. Halley offers a genealogy of various feminisms and of gay, queer, and trans theories as they split from each other in the United States during the 1980s and 1990s. All these incommensurate theories, she argues, enrich thinking on the left not despite their break from each other but because of it. She concludes by examining legal cases to show how taking a break from feminism can change your very perceptions of what's at stake in a decision and liberate you to decide it anew.

    Abstract: During the Enlightenment, Western scholars racialized ideas, deeming knowledge based on reality superior to that based on ideality. Scholars labeled inquiries into ideality, such as animism and soul-migration, "savage philosophy," a clear indicator of the racism motivating the distinction between the real and the ideal. In their view, the savage philosopher mistakes connections between signs for connections between real objects and believes that discourse can have physical effects-in other words, they believe in magic. Christopher Bracken's Magical Criticism brings the unacknowledged history of this racialization to light and shows how, even as we have rejected ethnocentric notions of "the savage," they remain active today in everything from attacks on postmodernism to Native American land disputes. Here Bracken reveals that many of the most influential Western thinkers dabbled in savage philosophy, from Marx, Nietzsche, and Proust, to Freud, C. S. Peirce, and Walter Benjamin. For Bracken, this recourse to savage philosophy presents an opportunity to reclaim a magical criticism that can explain the very real effects created by the discourse of historians, anthropologists, philosophers, the media, and governments.

    Abstract: Hauptbeschreibung Das klassische Bild vom Staat als "Leistungsstaat", der im öffentlichen Interesse stehende Leistungen in Eigenerstellung erbringt, wird zunehmend abgelöst von der Idee des Gewährleistungsstaats, der zwar Gemeinwohlinteressen zu sichern, die hierfür notwendigen Leistungen aber nicht notwendig eigenhändig zu erbringen hat. Die Einbeziehung Privater in die Erfüllung öffentlicher Aufgaben erfolgt in vielfältiger Weise. Sie reicht von unterschiedlichen Formen der Partizipation über die Übertragung von substantiellen Beiträgen zur Aufgabenerfüllung im Rahmen von Kooperationsverhältnissen bis zur materiellen Privatisierung. Das koreanisch-deutsche Symposium zum Verwaltungsrechtsvergleich, dessen Vorträge in diesem Band dokumentiert werden, ermöglicht durch die Betrachtung spezifischer Referenzfelder eine vergleichende Gesamtschau des Stands der Forschung zur Einbeziehung Privater in die Erfüllung öffentlicher Aufgaben. Die Thematik der Aufgabenwahrnehmung im Gewährleistungsstaat wird in einer großen Bandbreite behandelt und unter verschiedenen Aspekten beleuchtet. Die vergleichende Analyse der Rechtslage in Deutschland und Korea bringt einen intensiven Erfahrungsaustausch in zentralen Gegenwarts- und Zukunftsfragen des Verhältnisses von Staat und Gesellschaft. Sie ermöglicht eine Verdichtung der Perspektive der Verwaltungsforschung unter Einbeziehung von Erkenntnissen und Anregungen aus einem anderen Rechtskreis.   Inhaltsverzeichnis Inhalt: J. H.

    Abstract: Der Band gibt wichtige Impulse für die methodologische Reflexion der historischen Kulturwissenschaften. Er geht auf eine Tagung zurück (Mainz, November 2006), deren Thema "Dichtung und Wahrheit. Zum Verhältnis von Narration und Erklärung in den Kultur-, Geistes- und Sozialwissenschaften" war. Die Autoren greifen zum ersten Mal im kulturwissenschaftlichen Kontext Anregungen vor allem aus der Analytischen Philosophie auf und diskutieren ihren Wert für historisches und kulturwissenschaftliches Arbeiten. Im Fokus der Untersuchungen steht eine Begriffstrias, die für die Sozial-, Geistes- und Kulturwissenschaften gleichermaßen seit dem 19. Jahrhundert eine große Herausforderung darstellt: Erklären, Verstehen und Erzählen.

    Abstract: The question of the nature of man has occupied human beings everywhere and in every period including the present. The scientists, politicians, theologians, journalists, and writers assembled here give their personal responses to the question in fifty incisive contributions representing different cultural traditions. What is to be expected? Clearly not a conclusive answer to the question but rather a dazzling spectrum of contemporary positions regarding human self-understanding both critical and constructive, pointed and profound.

    Abstract: Hauptbeschreibung In den vergangenen Jahrzehnten hat die deutsche Asylrechtsprechung ein festes Gerüst asylrechtlicher Rechtsfiguren und Auslegungsgrundsätze geschaffen, dessen tragende Pfeiler auf einer in weiten Teilen völlig eigenständigen Interpretation maßgeblicher Vorschriften der Genfer Flüchtlingskonvention beruhen. Der Prozess der Harmonisierung des Flüchtlingsrechts auf europäischer Ebene und vor allem die Richtlinie 2004/83/EG des Rates vom 29.04.2004 (Qualifikationsrichtlinie) als eines der zentralen Elemente dieser Asylrechtsharmonisierung verlangen der deutschen Asylrechtsprechung eine grundlegende Revision und Neuorientierung ab. Vor diesem Hintergrund geht die Autorin, selbst Richterin am Verwaltungsgericht, am Beispiel des Widerrufs von Flüchtlingsanerkennungen im Einzelnen der Frage der Völkerrechts- und Europarechtskonformität der deutschen Rechtsprechung nach. Annegret Titze legt dabei besonderes Gewicht auf die dogmatische Entfaltung der für alle Auslegungsfragen im materiellen Asylrecht nunmehr maßgeblichen methodischen Grundlagen, die bei der Auslegung von Völkervertragsrecht einerseits und der Auslegung von EG-Recht andererseits sowie bei der Verzahnung beider Rechtskreise im Bereich der Qualifikationsrichtlinie zu beachten sind. Sowohl die Genfer Flüchtlingskonvention als auch die Qualifikationsrichtlinie werden nach Auffassung der Autorin durch die gegenwärtige Rechtsprechung des Bundesverwaltungsgerichts interpretatorisch verfehlt.   Inhaltsverzeichnis Inhaltsübersicht: Einführung und Gang der Untersuchung - 1.

    Keywords: Baumgarten, Arthur ; Rechtsphilosophie ; Philosophie
    Abstract: In dieser Monographie wird, beginnend mit einem biographischen und zeitgeschichtlichen Grundriss, zum ersten Mal das umfangreiche strafrechtliche, rechtsphilosophische und philosophische Gesamtwerk Arthur Baumgartens dargestellt. Baumgarten war im Jahr seiner bei Franz v. Liszt verteidigten Dissertation (1909) nach Genf berufen worden und lehrte in Köln, Basel, Frankfurt/M. und Berlin. Von der dreiteiligen "Wissenschaft vom Recht" (1922) urteilte Albrecht Mendelssohn Bartholdy im "Archiv des öffentlichen Rechts", hier sei die Jurisprudenz auf Philosophie gegründet, und die Lehre Baumgartens werde neben Stammler und Nelson die stärkste Wirkung aufs Rechtsdenken gewinnen. Mit seinen philosophischen Schriften wurde Baumgarten, beeinflusst von James und Dewey, in den zwanziger und dreißiger Jahren des vergangenen Jahrhunderts ein Vordenker des sozialliberalen Pragmatismus in der deutschen Philosophie und nahm deren Hinwendung zur angloamerikanischen philosophischen Tradition um Jahrzehnte vorweg. 1933 erklärte er, unterm NS-Regime nicht Rechtwissenschaft lehren zu können, und ging von Frankfurt in die Schweizer Emigration. Die Erfahrung von Faschismus und Krieg führte ihn in der Mitte der vierziger Jahre zu sozialistischen Überzeugungen und Erwartungen und zur Marxschen sozialwissenschaftlichen Methode, so dass er, nach Frankfurt nicht zurückberufen, gleich anderen antifaschistischen Intellektuellen in die Ostzone und spätere DDR zog. Gerd Irrlitz behandelt die Hauptwerke und die marxistisch orientierten Texte Baumgartens - wie überhaupt die sozialliberale und die späte sozialistische Periode - nicht als Gegensätze, sondern als aufeinander bezogene und einander bedingende Konzepte, überzeugt, dass das Werk des Rechtsphilosophen unterm Erfordernis der Erneuerung des sozialen Liberalismus in der hochindustriellen Zivilisation neue Aktualität gewinnen...

    Abstract: Future Matters concerns contemporary approaches to the future - how the future is known, created and minded. In a social world whose pace continues to accelerate the future becomes an increasingly difficult terrain. While the focus of social life is narrowing down to the present, the futures we create on a daily basis cast ever longer shadows. Future Matters addresses this paradox and its deep ethical implications.

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

    Abstract: Hauptbeschreibung Pascale Cancik untersucht die Offizialisierung und Professionalisierung von Verwaltungskommunikation im Preußen des frühen 19. Jahrhunderts. Zu dieser Zeit erreichte der aufklärerische Öffentlichkeitsdiskurs der 'Sattelzeit' verschiedene Bereiche von Gesellschaft und Recht (Parlamente, Gerichte, Presse). Die Verwaltung indessen, die damals ihre modern-bürokratische Form entwickelte, wird von der historischen Forschung kaum mit jenen liberalen Öffentlichkeitsforderungen in Verbindung gebracht. Ist das gegenwärtig wieder viel untersuchte Thema Verwaltung und Öffentlichkeit zu Recht kein Thema (rechts-)historischer Forschung? Die Autorin zeigt zunächst, dass es durchaus einen zeitgenössischen Publizitätsdiskurs gab, der sich gerade auch auf Verwaltung bezog. Aber kam dieser auch in der Praxis von Recht und Verwaltung an? Da Öffentlichkeiten sich in Kommunikationen manifestieren, werden zwei Felder von Verwaltungskommunikation genauer untersucht: die Publikation staatlichen Handelns durch die Verwaltung sowie die Entwicklung konkreter Verwaltungsverfahren, innerhalb derer die Verwaltung mit Bürgern kommuniziert. Im Zentrum stehen dabei jeweils die Rolle von Recht und Rechtspraxis. Es ergibt sich ein komplexes Bild von Motiven und Intensitäten der Einbeziehung oder gar Beteiligung von Bürgern. Bis heute genutzte Techniken, Medien und Verfahren wurden damals mit Hilfe von Recht konzipiert und eingeübt. Sie sind nicht, wie manchmal behauptet, ausschließlich mit Demokratie verbunden.

    Abstract: Originally published in 1529, the Declamation on the Preeminence and Nobility of the Female Sex argues that women are more than equal to men in all things that really matter, including the public spheres from which they had long been excluded. Rather than directly refuting prevailing wisdom, Agrippa uses women's superiority as a rhetorical device and overturns the misogynistic interpretations of the female body in Greek medicine, in the Bible, in Roman and canon law, in theology and moral philosophy, and in politics. He raised the question of why women were excluded and provided answers based not on sex but on social conditioning, education, and the prejudices of their more powerful oppressors. His declamation, disseminated through the printing press, illustrated the power of that new medium, soon to be used to generate a larger reformation of religion.

    Abstract: Some critical theorists understand the self as constituted by power relations, while others insist upon the self's autonomous capacities for critical reflection and deliberate self-transformation. Up to now, it has all too often been assumed that these two understandings of the self are incompatible. In her bold new book, Amy Allen argues that the capacity for autonomy is rooted in the very power relations that constitute the self. Allen's theoretical framework illuminates both aspects of what she calls, following Foucault, the "politics of our selves." It analyzes power in all its depth and complexity, including the complicated phenomenon of subjection, without giving up on the ideal of autonomy. Drawing on original and critical readings of a diverse group of theorists, including Michel Foucault, Jurgen Habermas, Judith Butler, and Seyla Benhabib, Allen shows how the self can be both constituted by power and capable of an autonomous self-constitution. Her argument is a significant and vital contribution to feminist theory and to critical social theory, both of which have long grappled with the relationship between power and agency. If critical theory is to be truly critical, Allen argues, it will have to pay greater attention to the phenomenon of subjection, and will have to think through the challenges that the notion of subjection poses for the critical-theoretical conception of autonomy. In particular, Allen discusses in detail how the normative aspirations of Habermasian critical theory need to be recast in light of Foucault's and Butler's account of subjection. This book is original both in its attempt to think of power and autonomy simultaneously and in its effort to bring the work of Foucault and Habermas into a productive dialogue.

    Abstract: Artificial Knowing challenges the masculine slant in the Artificial Intelligence (AI) view of the world. Alison Adam admirably fills the large gap in science and technology studies by showing us that gender bias is inscribed in AI-based computer systems. Her treatment of feminist epistemology, focusing on the ideas of the knowing subject, the nature of knowledge, rationality and language, are bound to make a significant and powerful contribution to AI studies. Drawing from theories by Donna Haraway and Sherry Turkle, and using tools of feminist epistemology, Adam provides a sustained critique of AI which interestingly re-enforces many of the traditional criticisms of the AI project. Artificial Knowing is an esential read for those interested in gender studies, science and technology studies, and philosophical debates in AI.

In this incisive and illuminating book, Diane Elam unravels: * the contemporary relevance of feminism and deconstruction * how we can still understand and talk about the materiality of women's bodies * whether gender can be distinguished from sex * the place of ethics and political action in the light of postmodernist theory. Clearly and brilliantly written, Feminism and Deconstruction is essential reading for anyone who needs a no-nonsense but stimulating guide through one of the mazes of contemporary theory.

Couze Venn forces us to rethink the very parameters of the post-colonial and suggests a new political economy for post-modern times. This critical engagement opens up the possibility to reimagine the world from its current narrow European strictures to a world full of alternative possibilities and modernities... This is a timely and ground breaking book that contributes to a much needed reconceptualisation of the postcolony".  - Professor Pal Ahluwalia, Goldsmiths, University of London What is postcolonial studies? What are its achievements, strengths and weaknesses? This ground breaking book offers an essential guide to one of the most important issues of our time, with special emphasis on neo-liberalism within world poverty and the 'third world'. It clarifies: The territory of postcolonial studies How identity and postcolonialism relate The ties between postcolonialism and modernity New perspectives in the light of recent geo-political events Potential future developments in the subject.

    Keywords: Geschlechterrolle ; Philosophie
    Abstract: Gender: Key Concepts in Philosophy provides clear and comprehensive exposition and analysis of the main philosophical theories, ideas and arguments that inform, and are raised by, questions of gender and sexuality. It explores both early feminist arguments, which stress 'sameness' between sexes in the interests of equality, and later theories, which emphasise difference. It raises the question of how succesfully feminist theory has negotiated the relationship between gender, race and class. The text looks at how Marxist and psychoanalytic theory help to articulate feminist theory and also at how they might inhibit it. It also explores the ways in which the approaches of Foucault and Derrida have been taken up by feminist philosophy to reformulate questions of power and ideology. Finally it addresses contemporary questions of sexuality, transgender and technology, and various political issues faced by women, such as rape, abortion and pornography. Philosophy undergraduates will find this an invaluable aid to study, one that goes beyond simple definitions and summaries to really open up fascinating and important ideas and arguments.

    Abstract: The human body defines a lucrative site of reusable parts, ranging from whole organs to minuscule and even microscopic tissues. Although the medical practices that enable the transfer of parts from one body to another most certainly relieve suffering and extend lives, they have also irrevocably altered perceptions of the cultural values assigned to the body. In Bodies, Commodities, and Biotechnologies, Lesley A. Sharp probes the ideological assumptions underlying the transfer of body parts, the social significance of donors' deaths, and the medico-scientific desires surrounding complex forms of body repair. She also considers the experimental realm, in which nonhuman species and artificial devices present further opportunities for recovery and controversy. A compelling scientific investigation and social critique, Bodies, Commodities, and Biotechnologies explores the pervasive, and at times pernicious, practices shaping American biomedicine in the twenty-first century.

    Abstract: Henri Lefebvre is now recognized as one of the most influential social theorists of the Twentieth Century. In English, his writings on cities, everyday life, and the production of space have become hugely influential across Cultural Studies, Sociology, Geography and Architecture. Henri Lefebve: Key Writings presents for the first time the full range of Lefebvre's thought. The selection reinforces the centrality of Lefebvre to current debates in social and spatial theory but also sets Lefebvre's work in the context of his broader philosophical and political concerns. The extracts are divided into sections, each separately introduced by the editors: Philosophy and Marxism; The Critique of Everyday Life; The Country and the City; History, Time and Space; Politics. Nearly all the extracts presented here are new translations and most have never appeared in English before. Henri Lefebvre (1901 - 1991) held a range of academic posts both in France and America and wrote over seventy books including The Production of Space and Critique of Everyday Life.

    Abstract: The Matrix trilogy continues to split opinions widely, polarising the downright dismissive and the wildly enthusiastic. Nevertheless, it has been fully embraced as a rich source of theoretical and cultural references. The contributions in this volume probe the effects the Matrix trilogy continues to provoke and evaluate how or to what extent they coincide with certain developments within critical and cultural theory. Is the enthusiastic philosophising and theorising spurred by the Matrix a sign of the desperate state theory is in, in the sense of "see how low theory (or 'post-theory') has sunk"? Or could the Matrix be one of the "master texts" for something like a renewal for theory as now being mainly concerned with new and changing relations between science, technology, posthumanist culture, art, politics, ethics and the media? The present volume is unashamedly but not dogmatically theoretical even though there is not much agreement about what kind of theory is best suited to confront "post-theoretical" times. But it is probably fair to say that there is agreement about one thing, namely that if theory appears to be "like" the Matrix today it does so because the culture around it and which "made" it itself seems to be captured in some kind of Matrix. The only way out of this is through more and renewed, refreshed theorising, not less.

    Abstract: This book demonstrates how and why vitalism-the idea that life cannot be explained by the principles of mechanism-matters now. Vitalism resists closure and reductionism in the life sciences while simultaneously addressing the object of life itself. The aim of this collection is to consider the questions that vitalism makes it possible to ask: questions about the role and status of life across the sciences, social sciences, and humanities and questions about contingency, indeterminacy, relationality and change. All have special importance now, as the concepts of complexity, artificial life and artificial intelligence, information theory, and cybernetics become increasingly significant in more and more fields of activity.

    Abstract: Ordnungs- und Regulierungsstrukturen bei der Ausgestaltung der Informationsgesellschaft diskutieren führende Vertreter von Regulierungsorganisationen aus Bund und Ländern, im interdisziplinären und intersektoralen Dialog skizzieren Wissenschaftler und Praktiker strategische Aspekte der multimedialen Breitbandkommunikation. Die Konvergenz der Medien erzwingt Entscheidungen darüber, ob die bisherigen Ordnungsstrukturen ausreichend sind und welche neue Strukturen erarbeitet werden müssen. Das Recht bildet den Ordnungsrahmen, andererseits brauchen technische, wirtschaftliche und gesellschaftliche Innovationen Freiheit, eine "Gasse für Innovation". Im Urheberrecht, den Schutzrechten für Jugend und Verbraucher, im umfassenden Medienrecht, in der globalen Governance sowie in neuen ökonomischen Ansätzen für die Errichtung technischer Infrastrukturen liegen zentrale Gestaltungsaufgaben für die Informationsgesellschaft.

    Keywords: Horkheimer, Max ; Philosophie ; Interkulturalität
    Abstract: 1931 hielt Horkheimer seine Antrittsvorlesung. Voraussetzung für die von ihm repräsentierte philosophische Auffassung der Verbindung von Theorie und Praxis war die organische Zusammenarbeit von Philosophen und von vielen Spezialisten auf dem Gebiet der verschiedenen Sozialwissenschaften, wie z.B. Philosophie, Soziologie, Politologie, Nationalökonomie, Geschichte und Psychologie. Dieser Art Forschungen führen über die Fachgrenzen hinweg und was aus ihnen resultiert ist nichts anderes als eine interkulturelle und interideologische Auseinandersetzung mit den wissenschaftlichen und politischen kardinalen Problemen unserer Epoche. Als das letzte Ziel der Sozialphilosophie gilt für Horkheimer die philosophische Deutung des Schicksals des Menschen, insofern sie nicht bloß Individuen, sondern Mitglieder einer Gemeinschaft sind. Gemäß dieser Auffassung hat sich die Sozialphilosophie in erster Linie mit Phänomenen zu beschäftigen, die nur im Zusammenhang mit dem gesellschaftlichen Leben der Menschen zu verstehen sind, wie z.B. Staat, Recht, Wirtschaft, Moralität, Religion d.h. mit der gesamten intermateriellen und intrakulturellen Sphären des gesellschaftliche Lebens. In seinem Essay Vernunft und Selbsterhaltung vertritt Horkheimer die Meinung, daß von der Vernunft heutzutage nicht viel übriggeblieben sei. Positivismus, Skeptizismus, Pragmatismus hätten den Begriff der Vernunft systematisch abgebaut. Keine der Kategorien des uns aus dem 18. und 19. Jahrhunderts bekannten Rationalismus habe überlebt. Wenigstens in einer Sache bleibt Horkheimer konsequent. Die Wahrheit kann verändert werden, man kann sie minimalisieren, aber man kann sie nicht destruieren. Die multikulturelle Identität jedes Individuums wird in der Wechselwirkung mit seinem gesellschaftlichem Umfeld aufs neue geprägt, aber sie wird nicht begraben werden.

    Abstract: Returning (to) Communities offers an innovative collection of examples and case studies into what has become a hotly disputed topic. The chapters present a wide-ranging series of interventions into the new debates over the concepts and practices of "community" and the communal. For this book, scholars have been gathered from across Europe and Australia as well as from the United States, and several contributors are involved in community practice. Returning (to) Communities is essential reading to researchers and students in social policy, sociology, ethnic studies, cultural analysis, media studies, and across all of the social sciences and humanities concerned with the communal and the collective.

    Keywords: Wissenschaftliches Zeitalter ; Fundamentalismus ; Globalisierung ; Demokratie
    Abstract: In The March of Unreason, Dick Taverne argues cogently that pessimism and distrust of science and technology has become rife in society, combined with the growth of irrationality and practices unsupported by evidence, such as alternative medicine. The growth of eco-fundamentalism, arising from a misguided belief that Nature is best has resulted in an enthusiasm for organic farming, a campaign against the MMR vaccine, and above all a concerted effort to block the development and growing of genetically modified crops - a technology that may greatly alleviate world hunger. Taverne argues that this dangerous trend leads to intolerance and a threat to democracy. Only reason and science can form a sound basis on which to build a just and open society.

    Abstract: This is a bold and controversial feminist, philosophical critique of postmodernism. Whilst providing a brief and accessible introduction to postmodernist feminist thought, Enlightened Women is also a unique defence of realism and enlightenment philosophy. The first half of the book covers an analysis of some of the most influential postmodernist theorists, such as Luce Irigaray and Judith Butler. In the second half Alison Assiter advocates a return to modernism in feminism. She argues, against the current orthodoxy, that there can be a distinction between "sex" and "gender". For students trying to pick their way through the maze of literature in the area of postmodernist feminism, Enlightened Women is a concise guide to contemporary thought - as well as a radical contribution to the debate.

    Abstract: This book rejects apocalyptic pronouncements that the end of the millenium represents the 'end' of nature as well. Remaking Reality brings together contributors from across the human sciences who argue that a notion of 'social nature' provides great hope for the future. Applying a variety of theoretical approaches to social nature, and engaging with debates in politics, science, technology and social movements surrouding race, gender and class, the contributors explroe important and emerging sites where nature is now being remade with considerable social and ecological consequences. The essays are organised around two themes: 'capitalising and envisioning nature' and 'actors, networks and the politics of hybridity'. An afterword by Neil Smith reflects on the problems and possibilities of future names. For critics and activists alike, Remaking Reality provides essential theoretical and political tools to rethink environmentalism and progressive social natures for the twenty first century.

    Abstract: Oxford presents, in one convenient and coherently organized volume, 20 influential but until now relatively inaccessible articles that form the backbone of Boyd and Richerson's path-breaking work on evolution and culture. Their interdisciplinary research is based on two notions. First, that culture is crucial for understanding human behavior; unlike other organisms, socially transmitted beliefs, attitudes, and values heavily influence our behavior. Secondly, culture is part of biology: the capacity to acquire and transmit culture is a derived component of human psychology, and the contents of culture are deeply intertwined with our biology. Culture then is a pool of information, stored in the brains of the population that gets transmitted from one brain to another by social learning processes. Therefore, culture can account for both our outstanding ecological success as well as the maladaptations that characterize much of human behavior. The interest in this collection will span anthropology, psychology, economics, philosophy, and political science.

    Keywords: Brown, Oliver ; Schwarze ; Rassendiskriminierung ; Eugenik ; Bildungspolitik ; USA ; Topeka, Kan.
    Abstract: In this fascinating examination of the intriguing but understudied period following the landmark Brown v. Board of Education decision, John Jackson examines the scientific case aimed at dismantling the legislation. Offering a trenchant assessment of the so-called scientific evidence, Jackson focuses on the 1959 formation of the International Society for the Advancement of Ethnology and Eugenics (IAAEE), whose expressed function was to objectively investigate racial differences and publicize their findings. Notable figures included Carleton Putnam, Wesley Critz George, and Carleton Coon. In an attempt to link race, eugenics and intelligence, they launched legal challenges to the Brown ruling, each chronicled here, that went to trial but ultimately failed. The history Jackson presents speaks volumes about the legacy of racism, as we can see similar arguments alive and well today in such books as The Bell Curve and in other debates on race, science, and intelligence. With meticulous research and a nuanced understanding of the complexities of race and law, Jackson tells a disturbing tale about race in America.

    Keywords: Rassendiskriminierung ; Gesetzgebung ; Geschlechterrolle ; USA
    Abstract: Toxic Diversity offers an invigorating view of race, gender, and law in America. Analyzing the work of preeminent legal scholars such as Patricia Williams, Derrick Bell, Lani Guinier, and Richard Delgado, Dan Subotnik argues that race and gender theorists poison our social and intellectual environment by almost deliberately misinterpreting racial interaction and data and turning white males into victimizers. Far from energizing women and minorities, Subotnik concludes, theorists divert their energies from implementing America's social justice agenda. Insisting, in the words of James Baldwin, that "not everything that is faced can be changed, but nothing can be changed until it is faced," and that thoughtful Americans regardless of race and gender can handle frank conversations about difficult topics, Subotnik's critique of race and gender theory pulls no punches as it confronts such inflammatory issues as single parenthood, the merit system in academic and business settings, gender privilege in the classroom, and crime.

    Abstract: One of Max Weber's contemporaries described him as 'a child of the Enlightenment born too late' whose work is a 'vitriolic attack on religion'. Subsequent Weber scholarship has largely affirmed this valuation of Weber and characterized his scholarship as a manifestation of the very disenchantment that Weber describes. In The Postmodern Significance of Max Weber's Legacy, Basit Koshul challenges this idea by showing Weber to be a postmodern thinker far ahead of his time.

    Abstract: Seit Platons Schriftkritik und Aristoteles' Poetik ist die Frage nach den Medien ein Grundthema philosophischer Reflexion. Durch die Weiterentwicklung der technischen Verbreitungsmedien hat dieses Thema in der Moderne zusätzliche Brisanz erlangt. Zu sich selbst jedoch ist die philosophische Reflexion der Medien erst im 20. Jahrhundert gekommen. Im Zentrum dieser bisher nur unzureichend institutionalisierten Disziplin steht die philosophische Analyse der Zusammenhänge, die zwischen sinnlichen Wahrnehmungsmedien (wie Raum Zeit und den fünf Sinnen), semiotischen Kommunikationsmedien (wie Bild, Sprache, Schrift und Musik) und technischen Verbreitungsmedien (wie Stimme, Körper, Theater, Buchdruck, Film, Fernsehen, Computer und Internet) existieren. Der Band gibt eine Einführung in aktuelle medienphilosophische Grundpositionen und vermittelt einen systematischen Überblick über Geschichte und Gegenwart der unterschiedlichen medienphilosophischen Teildisziplinen. Im Mittelpunkt steht dabei die Frage, wie sich Veränderungen, die sich in den Bereichen der technischen Verbreitungsmedien und/oder semiotischen Kommunikationsmedien vollziehen, auf die sinnlichen Wahrnehmungsmedien und, vermittelt über diese, auf unser Wirklichkeitsverständnis auswirken können.

    Keywords: Minderheitenpolitik ; Nationale Minderheit ; Multikulturelle Gesellschaft ; Anerkennung
    Abstract: A new edition of the highly acclaimed book Multiculturalism and "The Politics of Recognition," this paperback brings together an even wider range of leading philosophers and social scientists to probe the political controversy surrounding multiculturalism. Charles Taylor's initial inquiry, which considers whether the institutions of liberal democratic government make room--or should make room--for recognizing the worth of distinctive cultural traditions, remains the centerpiece of this discussion. It is now joined by Jürgen Habermas's extensive essay on the issues of recognition and the democratic constitutional state and by K. Anthony Appiah's commentary on the tensions between personal and collective identities, such as those shaped by religion, gender, ethnicity, race, and sexuality, and on the dangerous tendency of multicultural politics to gloss over such tensions. These contributions are joined by those of other well-known thinkers, who further relate the demand for recognition to issues of multicultural education, feminism, and cultural separatism. Praise for the previous edition:.

    Abstract: Patricia S. Mann explains our current period as a time of social transformation resulting from an "unmooring" of women, men, and children from the nuclear family, gender relations having replaced economic relations as the primary site of social tension and change in our lives. The feminist movement has evolved, according to Mann, into a popularly based postfeminist struggle to reconstruct relationships between women and men within everyday contexts of work, family, education, and politics. Mann formulates a "postmodern" theory of political agency, utilizing it to explain political events such as the Hill-Thomas Senate hearings and their social aftermath. While liberal and progressive theories have explained political agency in terms of individual or group forms of identity, Mann suggests another alternative. Individuals such as Anita Hill are drawn into socially meaningful struggles in the context of their daily lives-as we all are potentially participating in micro-political forms of activism in a variety of institutional contexts. These dynamic micro-political situations involve intersecting dimensions of race, class, and sexuality, as well as gender. Within specific conflicts, individuals rearticulate their notions of desire and responsibility, and their expectations for recognition and reward; according to Mann political agency resides in these choices. Addressing some of the most important controversies in political philosophy, Mann weaves together strands of the "participatory politics" of the 1960s and the multicultural politics of the 1990s. In doing so, she offers a new basis for understanding social change.

    Abstract: The papers in this volume are concerned with a variety of vitally important topics in philosophical logic, the philosophy of language, the philosophy of mathematics, the philosophy of science, and in the application of modern logic to wider philosophical problems. All of them make fundamental use, in one way or another, of logical semiotics, the modern trivium of systematic syntax, semantics, and pragmatics, and some of them, of mereology, the general theory of parts and whole. The book includes 20 articles, dealing with such subjects as 'Logical semiotics and logistic grammar', 'The semiotics of mathematical practice', 'Husserlian parts and wholes', 'Compound individuals and the languages of science', and discusses work of Geach, Lesniewski, Carnap, Peirce, and Quine.

    Abstract: This classic text by Fei Xiaotong, China's finest social scientist, was first published in 1947 and is Fei's chief theoretical statement about the distinctive characteristics of Chinese society. Written in Chinese from a Chinese point of view for a Chinese audience, From the Soil describes the contrasting organizational principles of Chinese and Western societies, thereby conveying the essential features of both. Fei shows how these unique features reflect and are reflected in the moral and ethical characters of people in these societies. This profound, challenging book is both succinct and accessible. In its first complete English-language edition, it is likely to have a wide impact on Western social theorists. Gary G. Hamilton and Wang Zheng's translation captures Fei's jargonless, straightforward style of writing. Their introduction describes Fei's education and career as a sociologist, the fate of his writings on and off the Mainland, and the sociological significance of his analysis. The translators' epilogue highlights the social reforms for China that Fei drew from his analysis and advocated in a companion text written in the same period.

    Abstract: Broken family bonds can be one of the most intense sources of conflict. This book - which provides vital insights into the dynamics of family and other forms of violence - explores the damage caused to familial and social bonds by escalating feelings of shame during marital quarrels. Theories and research from large-scale conflict, marital dispute and communication processes are reviewed and provide a background for Retzinger's new integrative theory, which focuses on social bonds. The theory is applied to four case studies of marital quarrels in order to advance understanding of the escalation and resolution of conflict. The book includes a description of an intensive case study method for analyzing discourse and provides.
