    Abstract: This work deals with the applications of Semantic Publishing technologies in the legal domain, i.e., the use of Semantic Web technologies to address issues related to the Legal Scholarly Publishing. Research in the field of Law has a long tradition in the application of semantic technologies, such as Semantic Web and Linked Data, to real-world scenarios. This book investigates and proposes solutions for three main issues that Semantic Publishing needs to address within the context of the Legal Scholarly Publishing: the need of tools for linking document text to a formal representation of its meaning; the lack of complete metadata schemas for describing documents according to the publishing vocabulary; and the absence of effective tools and user interfaces for easily acting on semantic publishing models and theories. In particular, this work introduces EARMARK, a markup metalanguage that allows one to create markup documents without the structural and semantic limits imposed by markup languages such as XML. EARMARK is a platform to link the content layer of a document with its intended formal semantics, and it can be used with the Semantic Publishing and Referencing (SPAR) Ontologies, another topic in this book. SPAR Ontologies are a collection of formal models providing an upper semantic layer for describing the publishing domain. Using EARMARK as a foundation for SPAR descriptions opens up to a semantic characterisation of all the aspects of a document and of its parts. Finally, four user-friendly tools are introduced: LODE, KC-Viz, Graffoo and Gaffe. They were expressly developed to facilitate the interaction of publishers and domain experts with Semantic Publishing technologies by shielding such users from the underlying formalisms and semantic models of such technologies

    Abstract: Our eye movements in response to visual stimuli reveal much about how we experience the world. Focusing on the latest developments in the multidisciplinary field of eye tracking research, this volume ranges across a wide spectrum of research applications, with four sections covering the plethora of practical uses to which our expanding knowledge can be put. They offer abundant evidence that eye tracking research and its methodologies offer new ways of collecting data, framing research questions, and thinking about how we view our world. As a result, we are discovering more about how the visual system works, as well as how it interacts with attention, cognition, and behaviour. Current Trends in Eye Tracking Research presents the work of more than 50 researchers and academics, showcasing groundbreaking studies and innovative ways of applying eye tracking technologies to interesting research problems. The book covers the current output of a number of pioneering research laboratories, detailing their work on eye tracking and the visual system, alignment and EEG data, marketing and social applications, and eye tracking in education. Featuring creative uses of existing technology as well as inventive implementation of new technology in a range of research contexts and disciplines, this new publication is compelling proof of the growing importance of this exciting and fast-moving area of scientific endeavor

    Abstract: On the basis of a world-wide convenience sample of 116 languages, the distribution of zero-marking of spatial relations over the languages of the world is shown to largely escape any genetically, areally and/or typologically based constraints. The main goal of this book is to firmly establish the cross-linguistic occurrence of the zero-marking of spatial relations and to provide a framework for its study in terms of economy and predictability.

    Abstract: This volume explores the many different meanings of the notion of the axiomatic method, offering an insightful historical and philosophical discussion about how these notions changed over the millennia. The author, a well-known philosopher and historian of mathematics, first examines Euclid, who is considered the father of the axiomatic method, before moving onto Hilbert and Lawvere. He then presents a deep textual analysis of each writer and describes how their ideas are different and even how their ideas progressed over time. Next, the book explores category theory and details how it has revolutionized the notion of the axiomatic method. It considers the question of identity/equality in mathematics as well as examines the received theories of mathematical structuralism. In the end, Rodin presents a hypothetical New Axiomatic Method, which establishes closer relationships between mathematics and physics. Lawvere's axiomatization of topos theory and Voevodsky's axiomatization of higher homotopy theory exemplify a new way of axiomatic theory building, which goes beyond the classical Hilbert-style Axiomatic Method. The new notion of Axiomatic Method that emerges in categorical logic opens new possibilities for using this method in physics and other natural sciences. This volume offers readers a coherent look at the past, present and anticipated future of the Axiomatic Method

    Keywords: Education ; Education ; Aufsatzsammlung ; Schulverwaltung ; Skandinavien
    Abstract: This book analyses local school district governance in a comparative, cross-cultural perspective based on national studies of local school boards in the Nordic countries, Denmark, Finland, Norway and Sweden. The overarching research question explored by the national studies contained in this volume is: How are transnational influences of standardization and accountability, alongside national policies, transformed into local policy cultures by the school boards? In all the Nordic countries, the municipalities are equivalent with the school district level, and municipalities, as such, play a role as the interface between state policies and the schools. This book discusses the variation across different national systems in the Nordic countries in the degree of decentralism, as well as the processes through which sources of political autonomy are put into practice by school boards. It explores the interplay between context and policy-making at the local level, and analyses how local discourses expressed by school boards differ from national policies and trans-national influences. The book’s analysis of the country-cases and thematic chapters shows that there are both important similarities and significant differences in governance functions, power relations and understandings of school board chairs and members between the countries studied. Moreover, the book analyses the many ways in which these similarities and differences affect the work context of school leaders and teachers in the Nordic countries

    Abstract: This volume describes features of biological autonomy and integrates them into the recent discussion of factors in evolution. In recent years ideas about major transitions in evolution are undergoing a revolutionary change. They include questions about the origin of evolutionary innovation, their genetic and epigenetic background, the role of the phenotype, and of changes in ontogenetic pathways. In the present book, it is argued that it is likewise necessary to question the properties of these innovations and what was qualitatively generated during the macroevolutionary transitions. The author states that a recurring central aspect of macroevolutionary innovations is an increase in individual organismal autonomy whereby it is emancipated from the environment with changes in its capacity for flexibility, self-regulation and self-control of behavior. The first chapters define the concept of autonomy and examine its history and its epistemological context. Later chapters demonstrate how changes in autonomy took place during the major evolutionary transitions and investigate the generation of organs and physiological systems. They synthesize material from various disciplines including zoology, comparative physiology, morphology, molecular biology, neurobiology and ethology. It is argued that the concept is also relevant for understanding the relation of the biological evolution of man to his cultural abilities. Finally the relation of autonomy to adaptation, niche construction, phenotypic plasticity and other factors and patterns in evolution is discussed. The text has a clear perspective from the context of systems biology, arguing that the generation of biological autonomy must be interpreted within an integrative systems approach

    Abstract: The modern university started as an innovative model - a research-driven teaching and service model in the 19th century -, but the contemporary university is in a crisis of identity. The major challenge is how to harmonize different missions, e.g., teaching, research, and service. The triple function has become questionable and research now dominates the other two functions in contemporary higher education. This book takes a step towards further academic and policy discussions on the restructuring the triple functions of university and designing the future of the post-massified university. Contents: 1. The University in the Post-Massification Era: A Conceptual Framework (J.C. Shin and U. Teichler). - PART I. Post-massification and Changing Environments. - 2. The University as an Institution of Higher Learning: Evolution or Devolution? (J.C. Shin). - 3. The University in the Context of Continuing Globalization (D. Neubauer). - 4.

    Abstract: This volume brings together papers on a wide spectrum of topics within the broad area of language acquisition, stressing the interconnections between applied and theoretical linguistics, as well as language research methodology. These contributions in honor of Professor Jan Majer have been grouped in two sections: language learning, and discourse and communication. The former discusses issues varying from aspects of first, second, and third language acquisition, individual learner differences (i.e. gender, attitudes, learning strategies), and second language research methodology to the analysis of features of learner spoken language, the role of feedback in foreign language instruction, and the position of culture in EFL textbooks. The second part of the volume offers a theoretical counterbalance to the applied nature of the first one. Here, the contributions touch upon spoken and written language analysis, language awareness, and aspects of the English language; also, selected issues of language philosophy are discussed. The wide range of topics covered in the publication, authored by specialists in their respective areas, reflects Professor Majer’s academic interests and corresponds to the complex nature of the general field the volume aims to portray

    Abstract: This book explores the interconnections and differentiations between artisanal workshops and alchemical laboratories and between the arts and alchemy from Antiquity to the eighteenth century. In particular, it scrutinizes epistemic exchanges between producers of the arts and alchemists. In the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries the term laboratorium uniquely referred to workplaces in which ‘chemical’ operations were performed: smelting, combustion, distillation, dissolution, and precipitation. Artisanal workshops equipped with furnaces and fire in which ‘chemical’ operations were performed were also known as laboratories. Transmutational alchemy (the transmutation of all base metals into more noble ones, especially gold) was only one aspect of alchemy in the early modern period. The practice of alchemy was also about the chemical production of things--medicines, porcelain, dyes, and other products as well as precious metals--and about the knowledge of how to produce them. This book uses examples such as the Uffizi to discuss how Renaissance courts established spaces where artisanal workshops and laboratories were brought together, thus facilitating the circulation of materials, people and knowledge between the worlds of craft (today’s decorative arts) and alchemy. Artisans became involved in alchemical pursuits beyond a shared material culture and some crafts relied on chemical expertise offered by scholars trained as alchemists. Above all, texts and books, products and symbols of scholarly culture played an increasingly important role in artisanal workshops. In these workplaces a sort of hybrid figure was at work. With one foot in artisanal and the other in scholarly culture this hybrid practitioner is impossible to categorize in the mutually exclusive categories of scholar and craftsman. By the seventeenth century the expertise of some glassmakers, silver- and goldsmiths and producers of porcelain was just as based in the worlds of alchemical and bookish learning as it was grounded in hands-on work in the laboratory. This book suggests that this shift in workshop culture facilitated the epistemic exchanges between alchemists and producers of the decorative arts

    DDC: 304.8
    Keywords: Social sciences ; Religion and education ; Religion (General) ; Migration ; Demography
    Abstract: This book, in its 113th year, provides insight into major trends in the North American Jewish community, examining Jewish education, New York Jewry, national and Jewish communal affairs, and the US and world Jewish population. It also acts as an important resource with its lists of Jewish Institutions, Jewish periodicals, and academic resources as well as Jewish honorees, obituaries, and major recent events. It should prove useful to social scientists and historians of the American Jewish community, Jewish communal workers, and the press, among others.  For more than a century, the American Jewish Year Book has remained and continues to serve, even in the Internet age, as the leading reference work on contemporary Jewish life. This year’s volume, with its special reports on Jewish education and  the New York community and its updates on Jewish population statistics, Jewish institutions, and the major Jewish figures who passed in the year past, continues this splendid tradition. Pamela S. Nadell, Chair, Department of History, American University and Co-editor, Making Women’s Histories: Beyond National Perspectives  The 2013 volume of the American Jewish Year Book impressively demonstrates that Arnold Dashefsky and Ira Sheskin have restored this important resource in all its former glory. Bruce A. Phillips, Professor of Sociology and Jewish Communal Service, Hebrew Union College-Jewish Institute of Religion, Los Angeles Having a current American Jewish Year Book on my shelf is like having a panel of experts on American Jewish life at the ready, prepared to give me thoughtful, accurate answers and observations on the key issues, trends and statistics that define our continental Jewish community today. Well into its second century, the American Jewish Year Book continues to be an essential resource for serious leaders, practitioners and students who seek to ground their work in solid research and up-to-date data. Jacob Solomon, Greater Miami Jewish Federation President and CEO

    Abstract: The focus of the book is on different ways of knowing: the western scientific way (reductionist, dualistic and materialist) versus the indigenous approach (holistic, non-dualistic, and spiritual). It discusses both science and medicine in the context of the challenges experienced in introducing science and medicine into Africa through imperialism, colonization, and globalization. It looks at selected indigenous African paradigms, the dominant western paradigms, and the practitioners that represent these practices. The book deals with questions concerning compatibility and incompatibility of different ways of knowing and delves into epistemological stances, and the assumptions underlying these epistemologies. The volume investigates whether, and how a person can accommodate different epistemologies, and the nature of such accommodations.

    Abstract: Do women participate in and influence meetings equally with men? Does gender shape how a meeting is run and whose voices are heard? The Silent Sex shows how the gender composition and rules of a deliberative body dramatically affect who speaks, how the group interacts, the kinds of issues the group takes up, whose voices prevail, and what the group ultimately decides. It argues that efforts to improve the representation of women will fall short unless they address institutional rules that impede women's voices. Using groundbreaking experimental research supplemented with analysis of school boards, Christopher Karpowitz and Tali Mendelberg demonstrate how the effects of rules depend on women's numbers, so that small numbers are not fatal with a consensus process, but consensus is not always beneficial when there are large numbers of women. Men and women enter deliberative settings facing different expectations about their influence and authority. Karpowitz and Mendelberg reveal how the wrong institutional rules can exacerbate women's deficit of authority while the right rules can close it, and, in the process, establish more cooperative norms of group behavior and more generous policies for the disadvantaged. Rules and numbers have far-reaching implications for the representation of women and their interests. Bringing clarity and insight to one of today's most contentious debates, The Silent Sex provides important new findings on ways to bring women's voices into the conversation on matters of common concern.

    Abstract: This book examines the concept of port state jurisdiction in the context of international maritime law. In particular the book focuses on situations where port states have used their jurisdiction over visiting foreign-flagged vessels to apply unilateral domestic law, as compared with the internationally-agreed standards enforced by regional port state control organisations. To illustrate the legal issues involved three recent pieces of legislation are analysed in detail: the United States' Cruise Vessel Security and Safety Act 2010, the EU's liability insurance directive of 2009, and Australia's Fair Work Act 2009. Key issues include the legality of port states’ attempts to regulate aspects of a vessel’s structure or equipment, or even certain activities that may take place before a vessel’s arrival in port. The author argues that examples of unilateral measures being imposed by way of port state jurisdiction are growing, and that without active protests from flag states this concept will continue to expand in scope. As international law currently presents very few restrictions on the actions of ambitious port states, such developments may have a significant impact on the future of international maritime regulation

    Abstract: What is the role of social media on fundamental change in Arab countries in the Middle East and North Africa? Online Arab Spring responds to this question, considering five countries: Egypt, Libya, Jordan, Yemen, and Tunisia, along with additional examples. The book asks why the penetration rate for social media differs in different countries: are psychological and social factors at play? Each chapter considers national identity, the legitimacy crisis, social capital, information and media literacy, and socialization. Religious attitudes are introduced as a key factor in social media, with Arabic countries in the Middle East and North Africa being characterized by Islamic trends. The insight gained will be helpful for analysing online social media effects internationally, and predicting future movements in a social context. provides innovative interdisciplinary research, incorporating media studies, cultural aspects, identity and psychology presents a detailed study of factors such as national heritage, cultural homogeneity, belief system and consumer ethnocentrism focuses on religious attitudes in the context of online media.

    Abstract: This book presents the latest research on the challenges and solutions affecting the equilibrium between freedom of speech, freedom of information, information security, and the right to informational privacy. Given the complexity of the topics addressed, the book shows how old legal and ethical frameworks may need to be not only updated, but also supplemented and complemented by new conceptual solutions. Neither a conservative attitude (“more of the same”) nor a revolutionary zeal (“never seen before”) is likely to lead to satisfactory solutions. Instead, more reflection and better conceptual design are needed, not least to harmonise different perspectives and legal frameworks internationally. The focus of the book is on how we may reconcile high levels of information security with robust degrees of informational privacy, also in connection with recent challenges presented by phenomena such as “big data” and security scandals, as well as new legislation initiatives, such as those concerning “the right to be forgotten” and the use of personal data in biomedical research. The book seeks to offer analyses and solutions of the new tensions, in order to build a fair, shareable, and sustainable balance in this vital area of human interactions

    Keywords: Education ; Education ; Lehr-Lern-Forschung
    Abstract: The provision of online learning is increasing almost exponentially, with both established and emerging educational institutions creating new and revised courses to meet the needs of students demanding flexible access and delivery. However, the staff recruited to support this development often does not have the design skills or experience to generate courses that bear the hallmarks of effective online learning experiences. While the principles associated with the practice of instructional design provided pedagogical guidance for these design efforts, it remains commonplace for courses to present as little more than information delivery with no clear strategies for student engagement and interaction. The purpose of this book is to expand on the design concepts documented by the lead author and to present both a design framework and design strategies that will allow organisations to provide courses that embed the affordances of the online, social environment and maximize opportunities for engagement and learning in formal learning contexts. The authors contend that to truly achieve the potential of learning in an online environment, designers need to be alchemists - ensuring the current face-to-face classroom "gold" is not turned to lead and to transform those "leaden" online courses that do not engage or provide interaction into motivating and engaging "golden" learning experiences

    Abstract: The articles in this volume showcase the potential richness of frame representations. The presentation includes introductory articles on the application of frames to linguistics and philosophy of science, offering readers the tools to conduct the interdisciplinary investigation of concepts that frames allow. * Introductory articles on the application of frames to linguistics and philosophy of science * Frame analysis of changes in scientific concepts * Event frames and lexical decomposition * Properties, frame attributes and adjectives * Frames in concept composition * Nominal concept types and determination "This volume deals with frame representations and their relations to concept types in linguistics and philosophy of science. It aims at reviving concepts and frames as a common model across disciplines for representing semantic and conceptual knowledge. Departing from the general assumption that frames are not just an arbitrary format of representation but essential to human cognition, a number of case studies apply frames as an analytical tool to a wide range of phenomena, from changes in scientific concepts to particular linguistic phenomena. This provides new insights into long-standing semantic issues, such as the lexical representation of verbs (as predicative frames specifying particular event descriptions or situation types and their participants), adjectives and nominals (as concept frames, which provide attributes and properties of an entity), as well as modification, complementation, possessive constructions, compounding, nominal concept types, determination, or definiteness marking."

    Abstract: The Design, Experience and Practice of Networked Learning Edited by: Vivien Hodgson, Maarten de Laat, David McConnell and Thomas Ryberg This book brings together a wealth of new research that opens up the meaning of connectivity as embodied and promised in the term ‘networked learning’. Chapters explore how contexts, groups and environments can be connected rather than just learners; how messy, unexpected and emergent connections can be made rather than structured and predefined ones; and how technology connects us to learning and each other, but also shapes our identity. These exciting new perspectives ask us to look again at what we are connecting and to revel in new and emergent possibilities arising from the interplay of social actors, contexts, technologies, and learning. Caroline Haythornthwaite, University of British Columbia Despite creating fundamentally new educational economics and greatly increasing access - teaching and learning in networks is a tricky business. These chapters illuminate the complex interactions amongst tools, pedagogy, educational institutions and personal net presences - helping us design and redesign our own networks. In the process, they take (or extract) network theory from the practice of real teaching and learning contexts, making this collection an important contribution to Networked Learning. Terry Anderson, Athabasca University What kinds of learning can social networking platforms really enable? Digging well beneath the hype, this book provides a timely, incisive analysis of why and how learning emerges (or fails to) in networked spaces. The editors do a fine job in guiding the reader through the rich array of theories and methods for tackling this question, and the diverse contexts in which networked learning is now being studied. This is a book for reflective practitioners as well as academics: the book's close attention to the political, pedagogical and organisational complexity of effective practice, and the lived experience of educators and learners, helps explain why networked learning has such disruptive potential - but equally, why it draws resistance from the establishment. Simon Buckingham Shum, The Open University The chapters in this volume explore new and innovative ways of thinking about the nature of networked learning and its pedagogical values and beliefs. They pose a challenge to us to reflect on what we thought networked learning was 15 year ago, where it is today and where it is likely to be ...

    Abstract: This book examines the intra- as well as the inter-regional geopolitical and strategic implications of the Arab Spring by analyzing and connecting the broader economic and political strands of Euro-Mediterranean regional power shifts
    Abstract: Beginning in 2010, there has been a consolidating cooperation among existing powers in the Euro-Mediterranean in face of the rapid de-stabilization of the Arab region. This fact alone accelerated the hesitant responses by the EU towards emerging hegemons, particularly Russia and China, who in-turn applied traditional mechanisms of increasing regional economic influence to bolster their political influence, but with the difference that a normative influence is missing, in contrast to the EU’s and U.S.’ influence, which is strongly centered on universal norms pertaining to political, economic and social-cultural norms. This book examines the Arab Spring not only from its intra but also inter-regional geo-political and strategic implications by analyzing the Euro-Mediterranean region following the onset of the Arab Spring. It aims to connect the broader economic and political strands of power shifts that have taken place since the Arab Spring, making it of interests to political scientists and policy-makers concerned with the Mediterranean and Euro-Arab relations. There are many accounts on the Arab Spring. But only Astrid Boening has captured the underlying reasons and the geopolitical dynamics of this upheaval, which is rocking the Islamic Galaxy from its foundations. --Professor Ferdinando Sanfelice di Monteforte (VADM ret.)

    Parallel Title: Druckausg. Mimetic learning at work
    Keywords: Medical Education ; Adult education ; Education ; Education ; Medical Education ; Adult education ; Berufliche Qualifikation ; Handlungsorientiertes Lernen ; Erfahrungsorientiertes Lernen
    Abstract: This book examines the concept of mimetic learning at work and discusses processes of observation, imitation and practice that is central to learn through and for work. It elaborates the contributions to that learning from the experiences and lessons gained from social sources and the natural world, and individuals’ particular ways of engaging in and responding to what is experienced in the circumstances of occupational practice. The book presents an account of how securing occupational capacities needs to be seen primarily as a learning process and provides an explanatory account of that process. It proposes that this process is the most common and enduring means of human learning of occupational practices and associated development. The book is well aligned with and informs current discussions on and considerations of how individuals learn through and for work. Up until now, such considerations are usually based on educational precepts and practices (i.e. associated with programs and teaching) and look to the circumstances of work practice and deliberate ways of augmenting or promoting what has been learnt in educational programs. However, analyses of the development of occupational capacities emphasize the importance of individuals’ learning processes, albeit those exercised within and outside of direct guidance by more expert partners. The latter is important as much of the learning and development across individuals’ working lives occurs outside of circumstances of direct guidance or instruction

    Parallel Title: Druckausg. Mind, values, and metaphysics ; 1
    Keywords: Philosophy (General) ; Ethics ; Semantics ; Philosophy ; Philosophy (General) ; Ethics ; Semantics ; Mulligan, Kevin 1951-
    Abstract: This book addresses five main topics of metaphysics in its first section: formal objects and truth-makers; tropes; properties and predicates; varieties of relations; and the notion of explanation in metaphysics. The second part of this volume focuses on the history of philosophy with an emphasis on Austrian philosophy: the ideas of Bolzano, Wittgenstein, Locke and Bergson, amongst others, are explored in the papers presented here. This is the first volume in a two-volume set that originates from papers presented to Professor Kevin Mulligan, covering the subjects that he contributed to during his career including ontology, mind and value, history and philosophy of mind and philosophy of language. This volume contains thirty two chapters, written by researchers from across Europe, North America and North Africa. These papers cover topics in metaphysics ranging from Lehrer and Tolliver’s discussion of truth and tropes, to Johansson’s defence of the distinction between thick and thin relations and Persson and Sahlin’s presentation of the difficulties inherent in applying the concept of explanation in metaphysics. Papers on the history of philosophy include a look at Bolzano’s formative years and his conception of mathematics. De Libera examines Brentano’s adverbial theory of judgment and Fisette traces the history of the Philosophical Society of the University of Vienna in the late 19th and early 20th century. Marion contests the trendy pragmatist accounts that lump Wittgenstein and Heidegger together and there are analyses of Locke and Bergson’s work, amongst the many papers presented here. This volume contains three chapters in French and one in Spanish. The second volume of this set looks at ethics, values and emotions, epistemology, perception and consciousness, as well as philosophy of mind and philosophy of language

    Parallel Title: Druckausg. Women's reproductive mental health across the lifespan
    Keywords: Social sciences ; Psychiatry ; Social work ; Psychology, clinical ; Social Sciences ; Social sciences ; Psychiatry ; Social work ; Psychology, clinical ; Frau ; Psychische Gesundheit ; Schwangerschaft ; Lebenslauf
    Abstract: Pregnancy and childbirth are generally viewed as joyous occasions. Yet for numerous women, these events instead bring anxiety, depression, and emotional distress. Increased interest in risk reduction and early clinical intervention is bringing reproductive issues to the forefront of women's mental health. The scope of Women's Reproductive Mental Health across the Lifespan begins long before the childbearing years, and continues well after those years have ended. Empirical findings, case examples, and dispatches from emerging areas of the field illuminate representative issues across the continuum of women's lives with the goal of more effective care benefitting women and their families. Chapter authors discuss advances in areas such as fertility treatment and contraception, and present current thinking on the psychological impact of pregnancy loss, menopause, cancer, and other stressors. These expert contributors emphasize the connections between an individual's biology and psychology and cultural expectations in shaping women's mental health, and the balance between a client's unique history and current clinical knowledge clinicians need to address disorders. Included in the coverage: The experience of puberty and emotional wellbeing. Body image issues and eating disorders in the childbearing years. Risk assessment and screening during pregnancy. Normal and pathological postpartum anxiety. Mood disorders and the transition to menopause. The evolution of reproductive psychiatry. A reference with an extended shelf life, Women's Reproductive Mental Health across the Lifespan enhances the work of researchers and practitioners in social work, clinical psychology, and psychiatry, and has potential relevance to all health care professionals

    Keywords: Philosophy (General) ; Genetic epistemology ; Linguistics Philosophy ; Philosophy of mind ; Philosophy ; Philosophy (General) ; Genetic epistemology ; Linguistics Philosophy ; Philosophy of mind
    Abstract: There are three themed parts to this book: values, ethics and emotions in the first part, epistemology, perception and consciousness in the second part, and philosophy of mind and philosophy of language in the third part. Papers in this volume provide links between emotions and values and explore dependency between language, meanings and concepts, and topics such as the liar’s paradox, reference and metaphor are examined. This book is the second of a two-volume set that originates in papers presented to Professor Kevin Mulligan, covering the subjects that he contributed to during his career. This volume opens with a paper by Moya, who proposes that there is an asymmetrical relation between the possibility of choice and moral responsibility. The first part of this volume ends with a description of foolishness as insensitivity to the values of knowledge, by Engel. Marconi’s article makes three negative claims about relative truth and Sundholm notes shortcomings of the English language for epistemology, amongst other papers. This section ends with a discussion of the term ‘subjective character’ by Nida-Rümelin, who finds it misleading. The third part of this volume contains papers exploring topics such as the mind-body problem, whether theory of mind is based on simulation or theory, and Künne shows that the most common analyses of the so-called 'Liar' paradox are wanting. At the end of this section, Rizzi introduces syntactic cartography and illustrates its use in scope-discourse semantics. This second volume contains twenty nine chapters, written by both high profile and upcoming researchers from across Europe, North America and North Africa. The first volume of this set has two main themes: metaphysics, especially truth-making and the notion of explanation, and the second theme is the history of philosophy with an emphasis on Austrian philosophy

    Abstract: The main purpose of the present volume is to advance our understanding of the notions of knowledge and context, the connections between them, and the ways in which they can be modeled, in particular formalized - a question of prime importance and utmost relevance to such diverse disciplines as philosophy, linguistics, computer science and artificial intelligence, and cognitive science. Bringing together essays written by world-leading experts and emerging researchers in epistemology, logic, philosophy of language, linguistics, and theoretical computer science, the book examines the formal modeling of knowledge and the knowledge-context link at one or more of three intersections -- context and epistemology, epistemology and formalism, formalism and context - and presents a novel range of approaches to the current discussions that the connections between knowledge, language, action, reasoning, and context continually enlivens. It develops powerful ideas that will push the relevant fields forward and give a sense of the new directions in which mainstream and formal research on knowledge and context is heading

    Abstract: Most of the world’s redundant ships are scrapped on the beaches of the Indian sub-continent, largely by hand. As well as cargo residues and wastes, ships contain high levels of hazardous materials that are released into the surrounding ecology when scrapped. The scrapping process is labour-intensive and largely manual; injuries and death are commonplace. Shipbreaking was a relatively obscure industry until the late 1990s. In just 12 years, action by environmental NGOs has led to the ratification of an international treaty targeting the extensive harm to human and environmental health arising from this heavy, polluting industry; it has also produced important case law. Attempts to regulate the industry via the Basel Convention have resulted in a strong polarization of opinion as to its applicability, and various international guidelines have also failed because of their voluntary nature. The adoption of the Hong Kong Convention in 2009 was a serious attempt to introduce international controls to this industry

    DDC: 301
    Keywords: Social sciences ; Religion ; History ; Anthropology ; Social Sciences ; Social sciences ; History ; Religion (General) ; Anthropology
    Abstract: This work documents the impact that the Great Awakening had on the inhabitants of colonial America’s Southern Backcountry. Special emphasis is placed on how this religious revival furrowed the ground on which the seeds of the American Revolution would sprout. The investigation shows how the Great Awakening can be traced to the Europe’s Age of Enlightenment. This effort also demonstrates how and why this revival spread so rapidly throughout the colonies. Special focus is placed on how the Great Awakening impacted the mindset of colonists of the Southern Backcountry. Most significantly, this research demonstrates how this 18thcentury revival not only cultivated a sense of American national identity, but how it also fostered a colonial mindset against established authority which, in turn, facilitated the success of the American Revolution. Additionally, this investigation will document (from a cross-cultural perspective) how religious revivals have fueled other revolutionary movements around the world. Such analysis will include the Celtic Druid Revolt, the Maji-Maji Rebellion of East Africa along with the Mad Man’s War in Southeast Asia. Lastly, the ethical ramifications of minimizing (or denying) the role that religion played in political and social transformations around the world will be addressed. This final point is of paramount importance given current trend in academia to minimize the role that religion played in spurring revolutions while emphasizing material (i.e. economic) causal factors. This attempt at divorcing religion from history is misguided and unethical because it is not only misleading but it also fails to fully acknowledge the beliefs and values that motivated individuals to take certain actions in the first place

    Abstract: The concept of this volume is that the paradigm of European national languages (official orthography; language standardization; full use of language in most everyday contexts) is imposed in cookie-cutter fashion on most language revitalization efforts of Native American languages.  While this model fits the sovereign status of many Native American groups, it does not meet the linguistic ideology of Native American communities, and creates projects and products that do not engage the communities which they are intended to serve.  The concern over heritage language loss has generated since 1990 enormous activity that is supposed to restore full private and public function of heritage languages in Native American speech communities. The thinking goes:  if you do what the volume terms the "Lost Language Ghost Dance," your heritage language will flourish once more. Yet the heritage language only flourishes on paper, and not in any meaningful way for the community it is trying to help.   Instead, this volume proposes a model of Native American language revitalization that is different from the national/official language model, one that respects and incorporates language variation, and entertains variable outcomes.  This is because it is based on Native American linguistic ideologies.  This volume argues that the cookie-cutter application of the official language ideology is unethical because it undermines the intent of language revitalization itself:  the continued daily, meaningful use of a heritage language in its speech community.

    Keywords: Social sciences ; Demography ; Developmental psychology ; Social Sciences ; Social sciences ; Demography ; Developmental psychology
    Abstract:  Natural and manmade disasters do not affect everyone equally, especially when resources are not equally accessible. Girls and women in particular face heightened risks of violence and abuse, and many countries bar female-headed households from receiving aid. Across the globe, a wider understanding of gender issues is needed to craft effective policies and carry out equitable practices in disaster planning and response.   The first full-length reference of its kind, Issues of Gender and Sexual Orientation in Humanitarian Emergencies brings together data pinpointing disparities with practical suggestions toward improving post-event adjustment for all. Arguing forcefully for an egalitarian lens in humanitarian aid, the book offers guidelines that governmental agencies and NGOs alike can implement at all levels of preventive and relief efforts to better assist victims and minimize further trauma. Salient areas covered include gender differences in the effects of disasters on children and adolescents, the heightened risk of domestic violence in disasters, and challenges facing the LGBTI community in relocation. In addition, examples from a cyclone event in Australia relate the experiences of victims, organizations, and aid workers to larger social issues. Included among the topics:   Gender and the impact of disaster on youth. Personal network structure and gendered well-being in disaster and relocation. Sexual and gender minorities in humanitarian emergencies. Gender as hazard in disaster planning and response. The relationship of disaster and domestic violence. The impact of disasters on workers and services.   Addressing a major threat to public and social health, Issues of Gender and Sexual Orientation in Humanitarian Emergencies is an essential sourcebook for researchers and professionals working with NGOs, disaster management, domestic violence, humanitarian relief, and refugee health

    Abstract: This book challenges the standard view that creativity comes only from within an individual by arguing that creativity also exists ‘outside’ of the mind or more precisely, that the human mind extends through the means of action into the world. The notion of ‘distributed creativity’ is not commonly used within the literature and yet it has the potential to revolutionise the way we think about creativity, from how we define and measure it to what we can practically do to foster and develop creativity. Drawing on cultural psychology, ecological psychology and advances in cognitive science, this book offers a basic framework for the study of distributed creativity that considers three main dimensions of creative work: sociality, materiality and temporality. Starting from the premise that creativity is distributed between people, between people and objects and across time, the book reviews theories and empirical examples that help us unpack each of these dimensions and above all, articulate them into a novel and meaningful conception of creativity as a simultaneously psychological and socio-material process. The volume concludes by examining the practical implications in adopting this perspective on creativity

    Abstract: How did social communication evolve in primates? In this volume, primatologists, linguists, anthropologists, cognitive scientists and philosophers of science systematically analyze how their specific disciplines demarcate the research questions and methodologies involved in the study of the evolutionary origins of social communication in primates in general, and in humans in particular. In the first part of the book, historians and philosophers of science address how the epistemological frameworks associated with primate communication and language evolution studies have changed over time, and how these conceptual changes affect our current studies on the subject matter. In the second part, scholars provide cutting-edge insights into the various means through which primates communicate socially in both natural and experimental settings. They examine the behavioral building blocks by which primates communicate, and they analyze what the cognitive requirements are for displaying communicative acts. Chapters highlight cross-fostering and language experiments with primates, primate mother-infant communication, the display of emotions and expressions, manual gestures and vocal signals, joint attention, intentionality and theory of mind. The primary focus of the third part is on how these various types of communicative behavior possibly evolved, and how they can be understood as evolutionary precursors to human language.  Leading scholars analyze how both manual and vocal gestures gave way to mimetic and imitational protolanguage, and how the latter possibly transitioned into human language. In the final part, we turn to the hominin lineage, and anthropologists, archeologists and linguists investigate what the necessary neurocognitive, anatomical and behavioral features are in order for human language to evolve, and how language differs from other forms of primate communication

    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: 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: This edited collection disrupts dominant narratives about space, states, and borders, bringing comparative ethnographic and geographic scholarship in conversation with one another to illuminate the varied ways in which space becomes socialized via political, economic, and cognitive appropriation. Societies must, first and foremost, do more than wrangle over ownership and land rights - they must dwell in space. Yet, historically the interactions between the state's territorial imperative with previous forms of landscape management have unfolded in a variety of ways, including top-down imposition, resistance, and negotiation between local and external actors. These interactions have resulted in hybrid forms of territoriality, and are often fraught with fundamentally different perceptions of landscape. This book foregrounds these experiences and draws attention to situations in which different social constructions of space and territory coincide, collide, or overlap. Each ethnographic case in this volume presents forms of territoriality that are contingent upon contested histories, politics, landscape, the presence or absence of local heterogeneity and the involvement of multiple external actors with differing motivations - ultimately all resulting in the potential for conflict or collaboration and divergent implications for conceptions of community, autochthony and identity.

    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.

    Abstract: Family-related migration is moving to the center of political debates on migration, integration, and multiculturalism in Europe. Still, strands of academic research on family migrations and migrant families remain separate from-and sometimes ignorant of-each other. This volume seeks to bridge the disciplinary divide. Collectively, the authors address the need to better understand the diversity of family-related migration and its resulting family forms and practices, to question simplistic assumptions about migrant families in public discourse, to study family migration from a mix of disciplinary perspectives, and to acknowledge the state's role in shaping family-related migration, practices, and lives.

    Abstract: A companion to Andrew F. Smith's critically acclaimed and popular Eating History: Thirty Turning Points in the Making of American Cuisine, this volume recounts the individuals, ingredients, corporations, controversies, and myriad events responsible for America's diverse and complex beverage scene. Smith revisits the country's major historical momentscolonization, the American Revolution, the Whiskey Rebellion, the temperance movement, Prohibition, and its repealand he tracks the growth of the American beverage industry throughout the world. The result is an intoxicating encounter with an often overlooked aspect of American culture and global influence. Americans have invented, adopted, modified, and commercialized tens of thousands of beverageswhether alcoholic or nonalcoholic, carbonated or caffeinated, warm or frozen, watery or thick, spicy or sweet. These include uncommon cocktails, varieties of coffee and milk, and such iconic creations as Welch's Grape Juice, Coca-Cola, root beer, and Kool-Aid. Involved in their creation and promotion were entrepreneurs and environmentalists, bartenders and bottlers, politicians and lobbyists, organized and unorganized criminals, teetotalers and drunks, German and Italian immigrants, savvy advertisers and gullible consumers, prohibitionists and medical professionals, and everyday Americans in love with their brew. Smith weaves a wild history full of surprising stories and explanations for such classic slogans as taxation with and without representation;" the lips that touch wine will never touch mine;" and rum, Romanism, and rebellion." He reintroduces readers to Samuel Adams, Thomas Jefferson, George Washington, and the colorful John Chapman (Johnny Appleseed), and he rediscovers America's vast literary and cultural engagement with beverages and their relationship to politics, identity, and health.

    Abstract: The Yearbook of Corpus Linguistics and Pragmatics addresses the interface between the two disciplines and offers a platform to scholars who combine both methodologies to present rigorous and interdisciplinary findings about language in real use. Corpus linguistics and Pragmatics have traditionally represented two paths of scientific thought, parallel but often mutually exclusive and excluding. Corpus Linguistics can offer a meticulous methodology based on mathematics and statistics, while Pragmatics is characterized by its effort in the interpretation of intended meaning in real language. This series will give readers insight into how pragmatics can be used to explain real corpus data and, also, how corpora can illustrate pragmatic intuitions. The present volume, Yearbook of Corpus Linguistics and Pragmatics 2014: New Empirical and Theoretical Paradigms, proposes innovative research models in the liaison between pragmatics and corpus linguistics to explain language in current cultural and social contexts

    Abstract: The Western Balkan countries have been both a popular subject matter for diachronic analysis and a 1990s favorite. The significant changes that followed the most recent times of conflict in the region mostly evolve around the process of Europeanization. Despite the plethora of analyses, most approaches to the Western Balkans suffer from theoretical stagnancy, ex parte political practice, and detachment of politics from societal needs. This volume is the work of a team of theorists and practitioners who attempt a multidisciplinary approach to Western Balkans reality. An Agenda for the Western Balkans offers a critical view on issues that have been over-analyzed in mainstream terms and opens a discussion that will occupy researchers and practitioners for years to come. It addresses novel topics and engages in innovative approaches that cut across disciplines of social sciences (political science, international relations, sociology, historiography, geography, political economy) and levels of analysis (local, national, regional, European, global). This collection is a pioneer theoretical and practical guide towards a sustainable future for the Western Balkans.

    Abstract: Climate change highlights the challenges for long-term policy making in the face of persistent and irreducible levels of uncertainties. It calls for the development of flexible approaches, innovative governance and other elements that contribute to effective and adaptive decision-making. Exploring these new approaches is also a challenge for those involved in climate research and development of adaptation policy.The book provides a dozen real-life examples of adaptation decision making in the form of case studies:·         Water supply management in Portugal, England and Wales and Hungary·         Flooding, including flood risk in Ireland, coastal flooding and erosion in Southwest France, and flood management in Australias Hutt River region·         Transport and utilities, including the Austrian Federal railway system, public transit in Dresden, and Québec hydro-electric power·         Report examining communication of large numbers of climate scenarios in Dutch climate adaptation workshops.

Auf der Grundlage einer Transformation der Phänomenologie und im Rekurs auf den aktuellen Diskurs der Gewaltforschung entwickelt es einen methodologischen Rahmen für eine nicht-reduktive Analyse von Gewalt, der in angewandten phänomenologischen Fallstudien erprobt wird. Gewalt war bislang vorwiegend in den Human‑ und den Sozialwissenschaften ein zentrales Thema, wurde aber nur allzu selten zum Gegenstand genuin philosophischer Refle...

    Abstract: In Bezug auf ihre informationstechnischen Grundlagen ist die Telefonkommunikation seit längerer Zeit Gegenstand vielfältiger Forschungsanstrengungen. Die Zusammenhänge zwischen der Telefonkommunikation und bestimmten sozialen Phänomenen wie der Lüge wurden bisher jedoch noch nicht hinreichend erforscht. Diese kommunikationswissenschaftliche Untersuchung widmet sich den Fragen, inwiefern die Telefonkommunikation das soziale Phänomen Lüge unter besonderer Berücksichtigung von Schein-Identitäten verstärkt und die Möglichkeit im Allgemeinen gegeben ist, den Lügner am Telefon zu entlarven. Wie können Lügen in diesem Kontext manipulativ eingesetzt werden? Wie weit wird es noch gehen?Die Herausforderung dieser Untersuchung besteht darin, sich der geschilderten Problematik aus kommunikationswissenschaftlicher Sicht zu nähern und interdisziplinär ausgearbeitete Erklärungsansätze zu erläutern. Ziel dieser Studie ist es demnach festzustellen, ob die aus diversen Lügenentlarvungsstrategien gewonnenen Kriterien helfen, in Telefongesprächen der Wahrheit auf die Spur zu kommen. Auszug aus dem TextTextprobe:Kapitel 2, Die Lüge - Interdisziplinäre Bezüge zum sozialen Phänomen:In diesem Kapitel soll auf die Erforschung der Lüge eingegangen und aufgezeigt werden, dass sich mehrere Disziplinen diesem Phänomen zuwenden. Eine zentrale Stellung kommt bei der Beantwortung der Forschungsfragen den Ansätzen aus der Linguistik, der Philosophie, der Psychologie und der Kommunikationswissenschaft zu. Es wäre zweckmäßig für diese Untersuchung, mit dem Begriff der Lüge zu beginnen, um demnach die wichtigen Herangehensweisen für eine Analyse des Phänomens auszuleuchten. Hierbei sei zu erwähnen, dass die Lüge als kommunikatives und soziales Phänomen hervorgehoben werden soll. Wie bereits mit der Identitätsproblematik deutlich wurde, können sich das Bewusstsein und das...
    Abstract: Handlungspotenzial des Menschen nur durch seine sozialen Geflechte entwickeln (vgl. Krotz 2002: 307). Grundsätzlich gilt, dass die Darstellung falscher Identitätsmerkmale von einer Lüge geprägt sein kann. Das Wissen dieser Gesetzmäßigkeiten ermöglicht es im weiteren Verlauf der Untersuchung, gewisse Zusammenhänge mit der Lügenproblematik herzustellen und darüber hinaus eine konstruktive Kritik an einigen reduktionistischen Positionen in der Lügenforschung aufzubauen. Von der Identitätsforschung kann die Lügenforschung insofern profitieren, da bedeutsame Erkenntnisse zur Identitätsentwicklung die Antwort auf die Fragen, wie und warum der Mensch zur Lüge kommt, bereitstellen.2.1, Zum Begriff der Lüge:Fest steht, dass die Lüge uns alle betrifft. Sie ist für uns eine alltägliche Angelegenheit und ihre Ursachen lassen sich zum größten Teil aus unserem Leben ableiten. Jeder Mensch hat auf Grund der vollzogenen Erfahrungen sein eigenes Verständnis bezüglich der Lüge entwickelt. In erster Linie interessiert uns hierbei nicht der Alltagsgebrauch des Phänomens, sondern dessen wissenschaftliche Erfassung.Nun soll der Begriff Lüge erläutert werden, um daran anschließend das Phänomen ins Umfeld verschiedener Relationen einzubetten. Für den Begriff Lüge existieren mehrere Definitionen. Auf der Suche nach einer einheitlichen Definition sind gewisse Schwierigkeiten eingetreten, denn jede Definition beinhaltet hierbei unterschiedliche Bedeutungsmerkmale, die nicht eindeutig festgelegt sind. Eine große Vielfalt von Relationen und Kontexten, in denen die Lüge erforscht wird, führt zu keiner einheitlichen Auffassung von diesem Begriff, selbst in einigen Lexika und Enzyklopädien wird diese Problematik nur annähernd hervorgebracht. Jeder Forscher fügt diesem Begriff ausgehend aus verschiedenen Perspektiven spezifische Anhaltspunkte hinzu. Um die Lüge expliziter
    Abstract: erfassen zu können, ist der Rückgriff auf bestimmte Sichtweisen erforderlich.Im Deutschen Universalwörterbuch Duden wird der Terminus Lüge als 'bewusst falsche, auf Täuschung angelegte Aussage; absichtlich, wissentlich geäußerte Unwahrheit [...]' (Kunkel-Razum et al. 2007: 1096) definiert. In diesem Zusammenhang wird die Lüge von der Wahrheit abgegrenzt. In der Brockhaus Enzyklopädie werden weiterführende Aspekte bei der Lügendefinition erarbeitet: 'Sie [die Lüge] liegt auch dann vor, wenn Tatsachen mit Absicht verschwiegen oder entstellt wiedergegeben werden' (Brockhaus 2006: 260). Die Erfassung der Lüge wird demnach in den ethischen Kontext gebracht und der Wahrhaftigkeit als 'einer der Grundlagen des menschlichen Zusammenlebens' (ebd.: 260) gegenübergestellt. In Meyers Fachlexikon der Psychologie werden andere Differenzierungen zur Lüge betont, so dass ihre Explikation als 'bewusst falsche Aussage oder unwahre Behauptung (im Gegensatz zum Irrtum)' (Ahlheim 1986: 211) samt verschiedenen Anlässen vorkommt. Im Dorsch Psychologischen Wörterbuch wird die Lüge 'absichtliche wahrheitswidrige Darstellung' genannt, 'die gegeben wird, als ob es eine wahrheitsgemäße Darstellung wäre, und ohne das Einverständnis des Berichtsempfängers zum Getäuschtwerden' (Dorsch 2004: 566). In Anlehnung an diese Definition lässt sich sagen, dass hier gewisse Voraussetzungen der Lüge angedeutet wurden bzw. der Versuch angestrebt wurde, das Phänomen in die Kommunikationssituation einzuordnen und der Täuschung gegenüberzustellen.Aus den oben erläuterten Definitionen lässt sich ableiten, dass die Bedeutung der Lüge erst in spezifischen Relationen bestimmt werden kann. Linguistisch betrachtet ist die Lüge an sich ein Zusammenhang von sprachlichen Zeichen, die in Bühlers Terminologie semantische Einrichtungen nach bestimmten Regeln und Strukturen darstellen, deren Bedeutung wie
    Abstract: bei allen sprachlichen Zeichen erst dann an Relevanz gewinnt, wenn diese Zeichen als Ergebnis einer Auseinandersetzung mit dem Umfeld betrachtet werden (vgl. Bühler 1999: 154 ff.; vgl. Bühler 2000: 71; vgl. Hundsnurscher 1994: 97 f.). Aus diesen Bezügen heraus bildet insbesondere der Kontext ein ausschlaggebendes 'Umfeld' für die Analyse des Phänomens. Dieses unmittelbare Umfeld bildet ein ausschlaggebendes Potenzial für die Analyse der Lüge, insbesondere in Bezug auf die wechselseitige Handlungsbeeinflussung im Kommunikationsprozess.Im Rückblick auf die Prinzipien der Sprachforschung nach Karl Bühler lässt sich auch im Falle der Lügenforschung festhalten:'Man muss es detektivisch gleichsam dem Kontexte oder den Umständen der Sprechsituation entnehmen, ob der Sprecher das eine oder das andere im Auge hat und meint. [...] Für uns, die Empfänger der Rede, ergibt sich, dass wir dem Sender irgendwie ins innere Konzept zu schauen vermögen; und für ihn, den Sprecher, ergibt sich, dass er teilweise wenigstens der gebrauchten Wortmünze einen präziseren, bestimmteren Sinn verleiht [...].' (Bühler 1999: 63)Es wird demnach detektivisch vorgegangen, um Schritt für Schritt der Lüge auf die Spur zu kommen und einen Erkenntnisgewinn zu erzielen. Im Folgenden wird präziser auf ausschlaggebende Relationen auf dem Wege zur Lügenkonstruktion eingegangen, um sich darüber hinaus mit Indizien, die für eine Lüge sprechen, auseinanderzusetzen.2.2, Die Lüge aus linguistischer Sicht:Um das Phänomen der Lüge umfassend darstellen zu können, muss zunächst eine sprachwissenschaftliche Herleitung vorgenommen werden. Kommunikationswissenschaftlich betrachtet, kommt der Lüge in semantischen, syntaktischen sowie pragmatischen Relationen eine besondere Bedeutung zu, die im Folgenden expliziter erläutert werden soll. In diesem Zusammenhang wird auf klassische Grundlagen der
    Abstract: linguistischen Lügenforschung eingegangen. Hierbei werden zwei Klassiker Friedrich Kainz und Harald Weinrich vorgestellt, die diskussionsleitende Beiträge zur Analyse des Phänomens der Lüge geliefert haben. Weiter werden linguistische Ansätze aus pragmatischer Sicht dargestellt, um wichtige Aspekte über die Lüge als sprachliche Handlung heranzuziehen.2.2.1, Klassische Grundlagen der linguistischen Lügenforschung:Für den Sprachwissenschaftler Friedrich Kainz steht fest: 'Die Lüge ist also von vornherein mit der Sprache auf engste verknüpft. Jede Lüge ist ein sprachliches Phänomen zufolge des Mediums, dessen sich jede Aussage, die wahre wie die unwahre, bedient.' (Kainz 1927: 212) Von dieser Behauptung ausgehend, verweist Kainz darauf, dass Lügenphänomene grundsätzlich im Zusammenhang mit der Sprache betrachtet werden sollen und infolgedessen in den Kompetenzbereich der Sprachwissenschaft fallen (vgl. ebd.: 212 ff.).Basierend auf den Prinzipien der sprachlichen Ambiguität liefert Kainz einen sprachwissenschaftlichen Ansatz, in dem er das Verhältnis zwischen Sprache, Denken und Lüge diskutiert und die Lüge im Kontext des Sprachgebrauchs erforscht. Dabei schreibt er der Sprache eine gewisse Hilfeleistung zu, die scheinbar den Menschen Anregung, Aufforderung sowie die Möglichkeit zur Lüge gibt. Er betont, die Sprachlügen, die nach seiner Auffassung einen Großteil an rhetorischen Mitteln, wie beispielsweise Euphemismen, Hyperbeln, Ellipsen, Tabuwörter usw. einschlössen, unser Denken zur Lüge zwängen:'Man sagt, die Sprache denkt und dichtet für uns; mit demselben Recht, ohne stärkere Pointierung, ließe sich auch sagen, dass sie für uns lüge. [...] Wir glauben zu sprechen, glauben unsere Gedanken frei und spontan auszudrücken, indessen unterliegen wir, ohne es zu merken, dem Sprachzwang, der Sprachverführung.' (Kainz 1927: 213).Kainz zufolge sei die

    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.

    Abstract: Immer wieder wird man in Funk und Fernsehen mit der „Marketing-Wunderwaffe" Social Media konfrontiert - verständlich, dass immer mehr Unternehmen davon profitieren wollen. Oftmals werden junge Mitarbeiter oder Praktikanten, die mit den Social Media- Plattformen wie Facebook und Twitter bereits privat in Berührung gekommen sind, beauftragt, diese für das Unternehmen zu erschließen. Schnell ist eine Unternehmensseite eingerichtet. Dann wird der Erfolg des Social Media- Auftritts durch die bislang üblichen Kennzahlen `Anzahl der Fans` und 'Zielgruppenengagement' gemessen. Aber reicht das zur Beurteilung der Wirksamkeit tatsächlich aus? Auszug aus dem TextTextprobe:Kapitel 5.4, Den Kunden ein Sprachrohr geben:Wie bereits an mehreren Stellen erwähnt, ist es ein Ziel von Social Media-Marketing mit dem Kunden in Dialog zu kommen. Er sollte motiviert werden, von positiven Erfahrungen und Erlebnisse zu berichten. Denn nichts ist authentischer und überzeugt potenzielle Kunden mehr als eine gute Kundenmeinung.Hilfreich für die Entwicklung des Redaktionsplans ist es, das Informations- und Kaufverhalten der sogenannten 'Lieblingskunden' zu analysieren. Hierbei stützen sich Grabs/Bannour auf die Untersuchung des Salzburger Internetexperten Mrazek, der mit österreichischen Hoteliers und Tourismusexperten das Lieblingsgastprinzip entwickelt hat. Im Kern geht es darum, dass jedes im Markt etablierte Unternehmen Kunden hat, die so zufrieden sind, dass sie immer wieder kommen und ihren Freunden von den positiven Erfahrungen berichten. Außerdem kann davon ausgegangen werden, dass es viele weitere potenzielle Lieblingskunden gibt, die nur noch nichts von dem Angebot wissen und die in Kenntnis gesetzt werden müssen. Werden die Gründe der Kundenzufriedenheit formuliert und entsprechend den Such- und Kaufverhalten der Lieblingsgäste den potenziellen Lieblingsgästen...
    Abstract: vorgestellt, werden mehr neue Lieblingskunden auf das Angebot aufmerksam. Grabs/ Bannour meinen, dass das Lieblingsgastprinzip sich durch die Einfachheit und Schlüssigkeit gut auf alle Kunden übertragen lässt und haben es so in das Lieblingskundenprinzip umbenannt (vgl. Grabs, A./ Bannour, K. (2011), 82 ff.).Die Erkenntnisse über das Such- und Kaufverhalten sowie die Gründe für die Kundenzufriedenheit sollten daher unbedingt bei der Erstellung des Redaktionsplans berücksichtigt werden, um die Beiträge zur rechten Zeit platzieren und einen viralen Effekt initiieren zu können.Kommt es zur Veröffentlichung eines negativen Beitrags, sollte diesem professionell und respektvoll begegnet werden, da in einer Kritik auch immer ein Fünkchen Wahrheit steckt und einer subjektiven Wahrnehmung auch nicht widersprochen werden kann. Ratsam ist es, in dieser Situation rasch zu reagieren, dem Kritiker für seine Meinung zu danken, zu versprechen der Sache nachzugehen und zu erläutern, wie man eine Verbesserung erreichen und umsetzen will.Zu berücksichtigen ist auch, dass eine negative Kritik für potenzielle Kunden gerade der Anstoß zu einer Kaufentscheidung sein kann. Als Beispiel sei hier die enttäuschte Berichterstattung über fehlende Bars, Clubs und Discos in unmittelbarer Hotelumgebung genannt. Durchaus denkbar, dass mehr erholungs- als unterhaltungssuchende Kunden gerade deshalb dieses Hotel buchen werden (vgl. Grabs, A./ Bannour, K. (2011), 84 f.).5.5, Ins Gespräch kommen:Nachdem die Zielgruppe analysiert, die Ziele definiert, die Lieblingskunden benannt und die bereichsübergreifende und langfristige Strategie entwickelt wurde, müssen - um bei der POST-Methode zu bleiben - die Technologien bestimmt werden. Hierunter werden die verschiedenen Social Media-Anwendungen wie Social Network (z.B. Facebook), Microblogging-Dienste (z.B. Twitter) und Blogs (z.B.
    Abstract: WebmarketingBlog.at) verstanden, welche zum Aufbau eines Dialogs zwischen Freunden und Gleichgesinnten genutzt werden (vgl. Grabs, A./ Bannour, K. (2011), 88).Eine Freundschaft beginnt in der Regel mit einer intensiven Unterhaltung, bei der das aktive Zuhören ein wesentlicher Bestandteil ist. Um eine stärkere Kundenbindung durch den Einsatz von Social Media zu erreichen, gelten Verhaltens- und Kommunikationsregeln wie unter Freunden. Es wird miteinander kommuniziert, interessante Inhalte und Beiträge geteilt und Hilfestellung geboten. Kurzum man achtet darauf, dass es jedem gut geht. Hierdurch wird ein Wir-Gefühl ausgelöst. Da Kunden Emotionen und nicht nur ein Produkt kaufen, hat dieses Einfluss auf die Kaufentscheidung (vgl. Grabs, A./ Bannour, K. (2011), 91).'Das Wir-Gefühl erzeugen Sie nicht über das Produkt, sondern durch das Gefühl, dass das Produkt beim Kunden auslöst. Viele Unternehmen sind geneigt, zu entgegnen, dass der Kunde doch (nur) ein Produkt und keine Beziehung kauft. Das stimmt aber nicht. Jede Marke steht für eine bestimmte Unternehmensphilosophie, für ein Gefühl, und beides kauft der Kunde mit' (vgl. Grabs, A./ Bannour, K. (2011), 92).Genau dieses Thema kann als Ansatzpunkt für ein Gespräch dienen. Sprechen potenzielle Kunden im Internet über ein Unternehmen, kann sich dieses an der Kommunikation beteiligen und Serviceanfragen beantworten, Hilfestellung bieten und so Kompetenz zeigen. Biographische InformationenThomas Löhr wurde 1976 in Braunschweig geboren.

    Abstract: In dieser qualitativen Untersuchung geht es um die Frage, ob und inwieweit in einer männerdominierten Jugendkultur, wie dem Punkrock, ein Doing Gender stattfindet oder möglicherweise auch situativ ein Undoing Gender erfahrbar ist. Dabei werden die historischen Entstehungsbedingungen und Ausprägungen der Punkrockszene, unter besonderer Berücksichtigung der Geschlechterperspektive, dargestellt. Im Fokus stehen solche Frauen, die sich aktiv in männlich dominierten Szenen, wie dem Punkrock, einbringen. Anhand einer Feldforschung und problemzentrierter Interviews zweier Mitglieder (männlich und weiblich) einer Punkrockband wird untersucht, welche Rolle dem jeweiligen Geschlecht in Bezug auf die Interaktionen, innerhalb der Band wie auch mit dem Szenepublikum, zukommt. Auszug aus dem TextTextprobe:3. Konzeptioneller Zugang: jugendkulturelle Szenen:3.1, Entstehungsbedingungen für jugendkulturelle Szenen:Um das Phänomen sozio-kultureller Vergemeinschaftungsprozesse von Jugendlichen und jungen Erwachsenen verstehen zu können, muss man zunächst einen Blick auf deren Lebenswelten und die Umstände und Rahmenbedingungen dieser Lebensphase werfen.Die westlich postmoderne Gesellschaft des 21. Jahrhunderts wird maßgeblich durch die immer mehr voranschreitende Individualisierung, Pluralisierung, Differenzierung und Globalisierung in Hinsicht auf Wertesysteme, Lebensstile, Weltanschauungen, Einstellungen, Handlungsoptionen, Wissensformen und Gestaltungsmöglichkeiten zwischenmenschlicher Beziehungen geprägt. Diese Zunahme an Möglichkeiten geht einher mit einem Verlust an Traditionen, Verbindlichkeiten, verlässlichen Routinen und Deutungsmustern, ebenso wie mit der Zunahme von Brüchen, Ambivalenzen, Konflikten und Unsicherheiten. Demgemäß werden die traditionell sinnstiftenden Institutionen, wie beispielsweise die Kirche, Vereine oder die eigene (Kern-)Familie von...
    Abstract: jungen Menschen nicht mehr als solche wahrgenommen, weil sie meist der wachsenden Komplexität der Lebenswelten von Jugendlichen und jungen Erwachsenen keine adäquaten Sinnstrukturen zu deren Deutung und Orientierung zur Verfügung stellen. Vor allem beim Übergang in das Erwachsenen- und Berufsleben können die Eltern als ehemals primäre Beratungsinstanz zur beruflichen Ausrichtung diese Funktion vielfach nicht mehr ausüben, da es kaum noch möglich ist, einen umfassenden Überblick über aktuelle Ausbildungs- und Berufsoptionen zu vermitteln.Eine Möglichkeit sinnstiftender Vergemeinschaftung stellt für junge Menschen daher häufig die Zugehörigkeit zu einer bestimmten jugendkulturellen Szene dar, die an Stelle der vormaligen Sinngebungsinstanzen tritt (vgl. Hitzler/ Niederbacher 2010). Neben dem Orientierungsrahmen kann eine Szene ihren Mitgliedern weitaus mehr bieten, indem sie unter anderem ein Zugehörigkeitsgefühl, das nicht selten familiäre Ausprägungen annimmt, vermittelt. Darüber hinaus kann eine Szene den gesamten Lebensstil, wie auch Bewertungs- und Deutungsmuster, prägen. Nach Ronald Hitzler wird das Phänomen der Szene wie folgt definiert:'Szene […] idealtypisierend soll heißen: Thematisch fokussierte kulturelle Netzwerke von Personen, die bestimmte materiale und/ oder mentale Formen der kollektiven Selbststilisierung teilen und Gemeinsamkeiten an typischen Orten und zu typischen Zeiten interaktiv stabilisieren und weiterentwickeln' (Hitzler/Bucher/Niederbacher 2005: 20).3.2 Merkmale von Szenen:In solchen Szenen treffen ‚Gleichgesinnte' aufeinander, deren Interessen sich in mindestens einem für die Akteure zentralen Aspekt überschneiden. Über dieses grundlegende Thema hinaus werden außerdem szenekennzeichnende Sichtweisen, Umgangsformen, Symbole, Vorlieben und Handlungsmuster geteilt. Daraufhin konzentrieren sich demzufolge die Konversationen
    Abstract: und Aktivitäten, ohne sich auf diesen wesentlichen Gegenstand zu reduzieren. Jener Leitgedanke wird eher als Rahmen genutzt, innerhalb dessen sich die Aktivitäten bewegen, die aber wiederum mit anderen Themen diverser weiterer Szenen zusammen laufen können. Obgleich hierbei alternative Deutungsmuster offeriert werden, beziehen sie meist nicht alle Lebensgebiete mit ein und lassen somit auf einigen Ebenen einen weitgehend unbegrenzten Handlungsspielraum für individuelle Interpretationen und Ausprägungen. Szenen sind demnach nicht als klar definierte Einheiten zu betrachten, da sich auch innerhalb einer Szene widersprüchliche Meinungen und Präferenzen ausbilden können. Dies geschieht durch (Unter-)Gruppenbildung innerhalb der Szene, in welcher die Kommunikation und der Gedanken- und Meinungsaustausch verdichtet stattfindet. Dabei haben die einzelnen Gruppierungen innerhalb einer Szene nicht notwendigerweise Kontakt zueinander. Die (An-)Erkennung der Zugehörigkeit erfolgt über spezifische Charakteristika im Verhalten und dem äußeren Erscheinungsbild, ohne zwingend die Einstellungen oder Interessen persönlich ermittelt zu haben.Der Zusammenhalt einer Szene wird maßgeblich über verschiedene Formen der Kommunikation und der Interaktion hergestellt. Überdies werden Erkennungszeichen, Codes, Symbole und charakteristische Praktiken dazu verwendet, erkennbar Gemeinsamkeiten herzustellen und sich offenkundig nach außen hin abzugrenzen. Diese Inszenierung benötigt also auch immer ein außenstehendes ‚Publikum', das die Szene als solche auch identifiziert. Die Mitgliedschaft beruht auf Freiwilligkeit und ist infolgedessen jederzeit wieder kündbar, da keine formalen Inklusions- oder Exklusionskriterien existieren. Demnach handelt es sich bei Szenen keinesfalls um ein beständiges Konstrukt, sondern eher um ein auf eine bestimmte Lebenszeit beschränktes Phänomen,
    Abstract: welches, je nach Individuum, parallel zu anderen szenefernen Lebensbereichen und -Aktivitäten, wie beispielsweise dem Beruf oder der Familie, existieren kann (vgl. Hitzler/ Niederbacher 2010).'Da Szenen sich aber nur im ausdrücklichen (expressiven) Vollzug von Zugehörigkeit konstituieren, ist das szenetypische Wir- Bewusstsein sozusagen notwendig sequentialisiert in einer Abfolge von Latenzen und Aktualitäten' (Hitzler/Bucher/Niederbacher 2005: 24).Dieses Wir- Bewusstsein ist folglich äußerst anfällig und bedarf verlässlicher, festigender, teilweise auch reproduzierender Rituale, wie beispielsweise bestimmte Orte, an denen Gemeinschaft (aus-)gelebt werden kann. An solchen Versammlungsorten treffen sich die Szenegänger_innen, tauschen sich aus, erfahren ein Gefühl von Zusammengehörigkeit, üben Rituale aus, oder im Falle von neuen Mitgliedern ein, verfestigen oder aktualisieren durch Interaktion ihre szenetypischen Wissensbestände und Praxen. Nicht nur an solchen Treffpunkten, sondern in organisierter(er) Form auch bei signifikanten ‚Events', wie beispielsweise Konzerte oder Festivals, speziell bei musikorientierten Szenen. Solche Events gehen einher mit der Kommerzialisierung der jeweiligen Szenekultur und bilden gleichzeitig die Möglichkeit, über einen begrenzten Zeitraum, teilweise sogar dauerhaft, den Lebensunterhalt durch die Arbeit in einem derartigen Bereich (Konzertorganisation, Tontechnik, Plattenvertrieb, etc.) zu erwerben. Unter anderem solche Events tragen dazu bei, dass sich die Szene nicht auf ihren unmittelbaren lokalen Radius beschränkt, sondern auch Kontakte weit über diese regionale Grenzen hinaus ermöglicht. Besonders der Gebrauch medialer Kommunikationsformen und der mitunter weltweiten Vernetzung mittels Internetforen und ähnlicher Netzwerke, bewirkt einen stetigen und sich immer rascher vollziehenden Wandel, welcher den

    Abstract: Im Rahmen der vorliegenden Untersuchung soll zunächst grundsätzlich geklärt werden, wie die zunehmende Bedeutung des Themas Work-Life Balance und der Maßnahmen zu deren Verbesserung mit der fortschreitenden Entgrenzung der Arbeit zusammenhängen. Auf dieser Grundlage soll anschließend, als zentrales Element, kritisch hinterfragt werden, ob die Realisierung einer guten und den Ansprüchen der Beschäftigten entsprechenden Vereinbarkeit von beruflichem und privatem Bereich, vor dem Hintergrund wegfallender Begrenzungen tatsächlich, wie von den Unternehmen beabsichtigt, erleichtert oder, als Folge neuer Herausforderungen, erschwert wird. Ziel ist es abschließend, Handlungsempfehlungen für die Beschäftigten zu erarbeiten und aufzuzeigen, die es diesen ermöglichen sollen, die ihnen angebotenen Maßnahmen zur Verbesserung ihrer Work-Life Balance unter Berücksichtigung der Ausführungen bezüglich erodierender Grenzen positiv zu nutzen. Auszug aus dem TextTextprobe:Kapitel 4.2, Ursachen der Entgrenzung der Arbeit:In einem nächsten Schritt werden die Ursachen der Entgrenzung der Arbeit, welche in der Literatur thematisiert werden, erarbeitet und überblicksartig dargestellt. Diese Ursachen dienen grundlegend zur Beantwortung der Frage, wieso mit den, im Anschluss näher zu erläuternden, Maßnahmen und Instrumenten entfallende Grenzen angestrebt werden und der Entgrenzungsprozess im Bereich der Arbeit vorangetrieben wird.4.2.1, Globalisierung:Grundlegend wird die fortschreitende Globalisierung als Ausgangspunkt der Entgrenzungstendenzen angesehen. Kritisch ist anzumerken, dass diese allein als Erklärung der Entgrenzung der Arbeit kaum ausreichend ist, denn Reorganisationsbemühungen gab es schon bevor das Thema Globalisierung als solches an Bedeutung zunahm. Nichtsdestotrotz ist die Internationalisierung der Märkte und Unternehmen eine wichtige Ursache für den...
    Abstract: Druck unter welchem die Unternehmen stehen, sich verändernden und neuen Anforderungen anpassen zu müssen (Minssen, 2000, S. 8 f.; Moldaschl & Sauer, 2000, S. 207 f.). So führt die fortschreitende Internationalisierung und Globalisierung zu steigendem Konkurrenz- und Kostendruck sowie zu immer differenzierteren Kundenanforderungen und zu damit verbundener zunehmender Komplexität und Unsicherheit. Diesen Schwierigkeiten konnte zwar zunächst mithilfe der fordistisch-tayloristischen Arbeitsorganisation begegnet werden, allerdings hat die neue Qualität und Dynamik der Entwicklungen in diesem Bereich neue Überlegungen bezüglich der unternehmerischen Reaktionsmöglichkeiten zur Folge. Bisherige Grenzziehungen werden so in Frage gestellt (Hartmann-Mühlisch, 2004, S. 147; Kratzer, 2003, S. 227 f.).4.2.2, Rationalisierung und Reorganisation:Um in der globalisierten Situation erfolgreich bestehen zu können und gleichzeitig die Bedürfnisse der Shareholder zu erfüllen, ist es für die Unternehmen von entscheidender Bedeutung, Rationalisierungspotentiale zu erkennen und Maßnahmen zur Kostensenkung und Produktivitätssteigerung umzusetzen. Dabei sind die Grundlage der Rationalisierungsüberlegungen nicht mehr so sehr technologische Neuerungen zur Kostenreduktion, sondern die Organisation als Ganzes soll durch Umgestaltung Produktivitätsfortschritte ermöglichen (Minssen, 2000, S. 9; Moldaschl & Sauer, 2000, S. 207 f.).Die Entgrenzung der Arbeit ist somit grundlegend auf neuartige betriebliche Rationalisierungsstrategien zurückzuführen, die mit den Rationalisierungskonzepten fordistisch-tayloristischer Prägung brechen, um mithilfe neugestalteter institutioneller und motivationaler Grenzen auf die neuen Herausforderungen im Zuge der Globalisierung reagieren zu können (Kratzer & Sauer, 2005, S. 92 f.). Wesentliche Ausdrucksform der betrieblichen Reorganisations- und
    Abstract: Rationalisierungsstrategien zur Sicherung der Wettbewerbsfähigkeit ist beispielsweise die fortschreitende Dezentralisierung der Organisationen. Diese führt mit damit verbundenen unternehmensübergreifenden Vernetzungen und Konzepten, wie beispielsweise die der virtuellen oder fraktalen Fabrik, dazu, dass Grenzen zwischen Unternehmen und der sie umgebenden Umwelt durchlässig, hinterfragt, aufgelöst und zum Teil wieder neu gezogen werden (Minssen, 2000, S. 8; Moldaschl & Sauer, 2000, S. 205 f.). Dabei sind die Dezentralisierungsbemühungen der Unternehmen durch eine Verringerung der Leistungstiefe, durch eine Verlagerung der Entscheidungskompetenzen auf dezentrale Stellen und durch eine verstärkte Autonomie und Verantwortung der einzelnen Organisationseinheiten der Unternehmen gekennzeichnet. Neue Managementmethoden unterstützen diesen Prozess (Kratzer & Sauer, 2005, S. 89-91; Minssen, 2000, S. 8; Moldaschl & Sauer, 2000, S. 207 f.).4.2.3, Neue Ansätze zur Mitarbeitersteuerung:Da rigide Formen der Kontrolle in Anbetracht der globalisierungsbedingten Herausforderungen der Unternehmen an ihre Grenzen stoßen und zunehmend als innovationsfeindlich angesehen werden, ist eine weitere Ausdrucksform der betrieblichen Rationalisierung und Reorganisation aber auch der zunehmenden Kundenorientierung der Unternehmen die reduzierte direkte Kontrolle durch die Unternehmen. in der Folge werden zunehmend indirekte Steuerungsmechanismen eingeführt, wie beispielsweise strategische Vorgaben von Leistungsbedingungen und Leistungszielen mit damit verbundener Autonomie für die Beschäftigten (Haipeter & Lehndorff, 2004, S. 126 f.; Moldaschl & Sauer, 2000, S. 207 f.; Pongratz & Voß, 2003, S. 23). In den Unternehmen wird zunehmend auf eine konkrete Abstimmung verzichtet. Das Management gibt den Rahmen vor und steuert mithilfe von spezifischen Zielen und Kennzahlen.
    Abstract: Marktsegmente, die personelle Zusammensetzung der Einheiten, zur Verfügung stehende Ressourcen sowie eventuelle Konkurrenz- und Wettbewerbsverhältnisse innerhalb der Unternehmen werden vorgegeben, während die Konkretisierung den dezentralen Einheiten und den Beschäftigten überlassen wird (Glißmann & Peters, 2001a, S. 46; Kratzer, 2003, S. 90). Das Unternehmen tritt gegenüber dem Markt in den Hintergrund, wobei es folglich den Mitarbeitern selbst überlassen wird, die Anforderungen zu bewältigen und Ressourcen zu steuern. Das scheint sinnvoll, um den Rationalisierungsdruck auch für die Mitarbeiter spürbar zu machen und so Produktivitätsvorteile erzielen zu können (Glißmann & Peters, 2001a, S. 46; Haipeter & Lehndorff, 2004, S. 25 ff.; Kratzer, 2003, S. 75). Abschließend ist also darauf hinzuweisen, dass im Sinne einer Vermarktlichung die hierarchische Kontrolle durch die Koordination mithilfe der Marktmechanismen ersetzt wird (Haipeter & Lehndorff, 2004, S. 126, 127; Moldaschl & Sauer, 2000, S. 207, 208; Pongratz & Voß, 2003, S. 23). Diese Konfrontation der Beschäftigten mit den Anforderungen der Konkurrenz und des Marktes führt in der Folge dazu, dass sich Grenzen verschieben und auflösen.

    Abstract: Die Studie behandelt die kultische Verehrung des 'Reichsgründers' Otto von Bismarck im wilhelminischen Kaiserreich, vorrangig durch die Parteien, Vereine und Verbände des nationalen Lagers. Im Mittelpunkt steht die Politisierung des Kultes in Denkmalsbau und Festen, d.h. die Ausrichtung von Rhetorik und Symbolik auf die Opposition gegen die Politik des 'Neuen Kurses und den Kampf gegen die 'inneren Reichsfeinde'. Auszug aus dem TextTextprobe:Kapitel III, Die Anfänge und Ausbreitung des Bismarck-Kultes 1890-1898:Wann und worin ist der Ausgangspunkt für die Entstehung einer zumindest im protestantischen Bürgertum weit verbreiteten Bismarck-Verehrung und einer politisch instrumentalisierbaren Mythisierung Bismarcks zu suchen? Eine Interpretation sieht Ansätze dazu bereits in den Besonderheiten des Bismarckschen Herrschaftssystems angelegt, das Hans-Ulrich Wehler als eine Form 'außeralltäglicher' oder charismatischer Herrschaft im Sinne Max Webers Typisierung der Formen legitimer Herrschaft interpretiert hat. Bismarck habe sich, so die Argumentation, durch seine erfolgreiche Bewältigung äußerer und innerer Krisen, die siegreiche Bestreitung der 'Einigungskriege' und die in erster Linie ihm zugeschriebene Reichsgründung ein extremes Maß an politischer Zustimmung und Loyalität erworben, das ihm eine Machtposition als charismatischer Herrscher jenseits traditional (Monarchie) und rational (Reichstag, Bürokratie) verfasster Herrschaftszentren sicherte. Diese Position versuchte Bismarck, durch die Meisterung zum Teil selbstgeschaffener Krisen zu halten und sich als unentbehrlicher 'Krisenmanager' zu präsentieren. Obwohl diese Strategie, wie Bismarcks Entlassung 1890 zeigt, scheiterte, wirkte das Charisma des 'Reichsgründers' ungebrochen nach. An dieser Interpretation ist kritisiert worden, dass sie sich vom Weberschen Idealtyp zu weit entferne und einige...
    Abstract: integrale Bestandteile des Modells zu wenig berücksichtige. Der Kritik hinzuzufügen ist, dass Bismarck zwar das Verdienst der Reichseinigung zugeschrieben wurde, sich daraus aber bis zu seiner Entlassung kein ihn ins mythische überhöhender Kult mit einer fanatischen Anhängerschaft, einer 'charismatischen Gemeinschaft' (Weber), entwickelte. In den ersten beiden Jahrzehnten des Kaiserreichs war es noch nicht absehbar, dass Bismarck einmal in den deutschen Nationalmythos erhoben und als Verkörperung des Deutschtums verehrt werden würde. In Denkmälern zur Reichsgründung oder zu Ehren Wilhelms I. erschien Bismarck lediglich als Nebenfigur des Kaisers auf einer Stufe mit Roon und Moltke. Ebenso wurde Bismarck in älteren Festreden, trotz Zuschreibung von 'Größe' und 'Genialität', selten als alleiniger Schöpfer des deutschen Nationalstaates präsentiert. Die wenigen Denkmäler und anderen Monumente, die bis 1890 zu seinen Ehren errichtet wurden, entstanden, wie beispielsweise der erste Bismarck-Turm in Ober-Johnsdorf (1869), kaum bemerkt von der Öffentlichkeit in Privatinitiative, oder sie standen in Bezug zu aktuellen politischen Konflikten, in die Bismarck verwickelt war. Das letztere trifft z.B. auf die 'Canossasäule' bei Bad Harzburg (1877) zu, von der im Zusammenhang mit dem Einsatz des Bismarck-Kultes im Rahmen der nationalliberalen Kulturkampfagitation noch die Rede sein wird. Auch die Reaktion der reichsdeutschen Öffentlichkeit auf Bismarcks Entlassung lässt nicht auf eine übermäßig starke affektive Bindung an den 'Reichsgründer' schließen. Unverhohlene Freude und Erleichterung bildeten den Grundtenor in der linksliberalen und sozialdemokratischen Presse. 'Ein Glück, dass er fort ist!' war in Eugen Richters Freisinniger Zeitung vom 21. März 1890 zu lesen. Aber auch in konservativen und regierungsnahen Blättern akzeptierte man in der Regel die
    Abstract: Entscheidung des Kaisers, würdigte zwar Bismarcks Werk, forderte aber nicht seine Rückkehr. Der österreichisch-ungarische Botschafter Graf Széchenyi meldete am 19. März über die Stimmung in Deutschland nach Wien: 'Es ist unglaublich, wie glatt hier dies weltgeschichtliche Moment abläuft. Der Eindruck allenthalben im Auslande ist weit gewaltiger als hier.'Ganz anders stellte sich die Situation nur wenige Jahre später dar. Es mehrten sich die Anzeichen, dass Bismarck-Verehrung vor allem im protestantischen Bürgertum gewaltig an Popularität gewann. Die sogenannten 'Huldigungsbesuche' von Abordnungen berufsständischer, wirtschaftlicher, politischer und regionaler Gruppen sowie von individuellen Verehrern in Friedrichsruh nahmen stetig zu. Unzählige Städte ernannten Bismarck, vor allem aus Anlass seines 75. und 80. Geburtstages zum Ehrenbürger; insgesamt bekam er aus etwa 450 Gemeinden einen Ehrenbürgerbrief verliehen oder zugeschickt. Im Gegenzug verschickte Bismarck häufig Eichensetzlinge aus dem Sachsenwald an Gemeinden oder einzelne Verehrer, die dann als 'Bismarck-Eichen' gepflanzt wurden. Zu seinem 80. Geburtstag erhielt Bismarck fast eine halbe Million Glückwunschtelegramme, bei deren Absendern es sich vorwiegend um Personen aus dem gehobenen und mittleren Bürgertum (Akademiker, Beamte, Offiziere, Handwerker, Lehrer, Hausfrauen) des ganzen Reiches (aus Preußen mehr als aus Süddeutschland) handelte.Die Ablehnung einer von Konservativen und Nationalliberalen beantragten Glückwunschadresse am 1.April 1895 durch den Reichstag mit den Stimmen von Sozialdemokraten, Zentrum, Linksliberalen und Partikularisten (Dänen, Polen, Elsass-Lothringer) wurde in der 'nationalen' und konservativen Presse als Skandal bezeichnet und von weiten Teilen des protestantischen Bürgertums auch als solcher empfunden. Noch nachdrücklicher als Konservative und
    Abstract: Nationalliberale gerierten sich viele der in den 1890er Jahren gegründeten außerparlamentarischen wirtschaftlichen und nationalistischen Interessenverbände als Bewahrer und Fortführer bismarckscher Politik. Beispielsweise bezeichnete der Bund der Landwirte (BdL) Bismarck als seinen eigentlichen Gründer und der Alldeutsche Verband verlieh dem 'Eisernen Kanzler' die Ehrenmitgliedschaft. Nach Bismarcks Tod 1898 ebbte die Verehrung von und die Berufung auf den 'Reichsgründer' keineswegs ab. Sie erhielt ganz im Gegenteil durch die zahlreichen Denkmalsprojekte, die Bewegung zum Bau von Bismarck-Türmen und -Säulen sowie die Abhaltung von Bismarck-Gedenkfeiern neue Impulse. Innerhalb von fünf Jahren nach dem Tod des Altreichskanzlers steigerte sich die Zahl der insgesamt fertiggestellten oder im Bau begriffen Denkmäler von etwa 40 auf 165, unter denen die Turm- und Säulenprojekte schon weit mehr als die Hälfte ausmachten. Dieser Stimmungsumschwung in der öffentlichen Meinung von relativer Gleichgültigkeit bei der Entlassung des Reichskanzlers zur Entwicklung eines 'Bismarckenthusiasmus' im Laufe der 1890er Jahre legt nahe, dass es sich bei dem Phänomen der Bismarckverehrung im wilhelminischen Kaiserreich nicht ausschließlich um Nachwirkungen Bismarcks charismatischer Persönlichkeit und seiner politischen Erfolge handeln kann. Es stellt sich vielmehr die Frage, welche politischen Entwicklungen nach Bismarcks Entlassung die Forcierung eines Bismarck-Kultes begünstigt haben. Um diese Frage zu beantworten, ist ein Blick auf sogenannte Politik des 'Neuen Kurses', die innen-wie außenpolitische Neuorientierung der deutschen Politik unter Bismarcks Nachfolger Caprivi notwendig.a, Die 'nationale Opposition' und die 'Bismarckfronde' gegen den 'Neuen Kurs':Bismarcks Entlassung bedeutete nicht nur einen personellen, sondern auch einen politischen Neuanfang, sowohl
    Abstract: was Regierungsstil als auch Regierungspolitik anbelangte. Caprivi war trotz seiner Herkunft als preußischer General liberalen Ideen gegenüber aufgeschlossen und teilte in vielen Punkten die Kritik der Liberalen an Bismarcks autoritärem Regime, über das er beispielsweise folgendermaßen urteilte:'Indem er (Bismarck T.G.) die in der äußeren Politik zulässigen Mittel skrupellos auch auf die Innere übertrug, indem er unseren alten guten Beamtenstand zum Servilismus erzog, indem er jeden Widerspruch persönlich nahm und die Charaktere beugte oder entfernte, hat er Schaden getan (...), der lange nachwirken wird.'Caprivi war bereit, die Konsequenzen aus dieser Beurteilung zu ziehen, selbst wenn sie seine Hausmacht schwächten und den unsteten Einflussnahmen des Kaisers auf die Tagespolitik mehr Raum ließen. Die Konzentration von Macht und Ämtern in der Person des Reichskanzlers wurde rückgängig gemacht und Kompetenzen zurück in die Reichsämter und preußischen Ministerien verlagert. In der Außenpolitik distanzierte man sich von Russland, konzentrierte sich auf das Bündnis mit Österreich-Ungarn und versuchte sich in Kolonialfragen mit Großbritannien zu verständigen (Helgoland-Sansibar-Vertrag). Innenpolitisch wurde Bismarcks Kampf gegen die 'Reichsfeinde' abgeschwächt: Das Sozialistengesetz wurde nicht verlängert, die Germanisierungspolitik im preußischen Osten gegenüber den Polen wurde gemäßigt, und die Regierung bemühte sich um parlamentarische Unterstützung von Zentrum und Linksliberalen. Biographische InformationenThomas Gräfe, geboren 1976 im Lemgo, studierte Geschichte, Anglistik und Sozialwissenschaften in Bielefeld und Brighton.
