Field Hockey Narratives

In Lawful Repair, Danish Sheikh asks what happens when queer people, confronted by a law that criminalizes their intimate lives, work creatively within its own forms to enact the law they need in the here and now. Drawing on queer theorist Eve Kosofsky Sedgwick's account of reparative reading and on the work of legal humanists Patricia Williams, Robert Cover, and James Boyd White, Sheikh examines the work of dissenters against Section 377, India's colonial-era sodomy law. Through playful and generative experiments with contracts, affidavits, and rewritten judgments, these dissenters turn the law's constraints into resources for hopeful legal futures. Combining memoir, critical theory, and theater, Sheikh interweaves practices of dissent with his own lived experience of repair work, showing how queer people extract sustenance from a culture whose avowed desire has often been to harm them. Sheikh demonstrates that law remains too vital a resource to cede and that the creative forces of queer dissent can keep law's imaginative possibilities alive.

Reimagining Law Through Queer Dissent

Lawful Repair

Das persönlichste Buch der bekannten ZDF-Sonderkorrespondentin und SPIEGEL-Bestseller-Autorin 
Sie spricht mit den Taliban, begleitet ukrainische Soldaten an der Front und erzählt die Geschichten von mutigen Frauen in Afghanistan, die in Untergrund-Schulen unterrichten. Katrin Eigendorf ist dort unterwegs, wo die Welt ins Wanken gerät.Es sind existenzielle, häufig auch schmerzhafte Begegnungen, mit Menschen, deren Geschichten die Reporterin erzählt. Nicht aus der Distanz, nur aus der Nähe, aus der eigenen Anschauung und Anteilnahme lässt sich über Krieg berichten.&nbsp; Mit großer Empathie und Realitätsgenauigkeit macht sie selbst komplexe Sachverhalte verständlich. Dadurch eröffnet sie uns vielseitige Perspektiven, die uns nicht ohnmächtig zurücklassen, sondern Orientierung in einer zunehmend komplexen Weltsituation schaffen.&nbsp;

Berichten am Limit in einer Zeit der Kriege

Erzählen, was ist

Erfüllende und dauerhafte Beziehungen benötigen einen gesunden Umgang mit Konflikten - Wie wir am besten streiten und gesunde Konflikte gestalten
 
 'Dieses Buch bringt etwas auf den Punkt, was viele von uns empfinden, aber nur schwer in Worte fassen können: Vermeidung ist nicht gleichbedeutend mit Harmonie. Es bietet einen prägnanten, menschlichen Rahmen, um Spannungen in Klarheit und Meinungsverschiedenheiten in Zugehörigkeit zu verwandeln.'
 
Daniel H. Pink, Autor von Drive
 
 'In den letzten Jahren habe ich miterlebt, wie so viele Freundeskreise, Teams und Gemeinschaften um mich herum auseinandergebrochen sind. Ich habe gesehen, wie viele Menschen es einfacher finden, sich zurückzuziehen, anstatt sich die Mühe zu machen, wenn es schwierig, kompliziert, chaotisch oder verletzend wird', erzählt Parker dem Magazin People. 'Ich habe 
Streiten lernen geschrieben, um euch zu zeigen, wie ihr zu Hause, bei der Arbeit oder im Verein bessere, erfüllendere, bedeutungsvollere und dauerhaftere Beziehungen aufbauen könnt.'
 
 
Streiten lernen beschreibt die komplexen und zutiefst menschlichen Dynamiken in Gruppen, vor allem, wie diese zu Meinungsverschiedenheiten führen. Wenn ein Konflikt eine Gruppe herausfordert, müssen ihre Mitglieder verstehen, worum es geht und ob die Gruppe bestehen bleiben, sich verändern oder auflösen sollte.
 
 Wie in ihrem Klassiker 
Die Kunst des Zusammenkommens stützt sich Priya Parker auf ihre umfangreichen Erfahrungen in der Konfliktlösung sowie auf ihre Forschungen und praxisnahe Beispiele, um darzulegen, wie Menschen in Gruppen Meinungsverschiedenheiten erkennen und entscheiden können, wie sie damit umgehen sollen - und was zu tun ist, wenn die Herausforderung unüberwindbar ist.
 
 Priya Parker ist Moderatorin, Strategieberaterin und gefeierte Autorin. Ausgebildet im Bereich der Konfliktlösung, hat sie sich mit den Beziehungen zwischen den Ethnien an amerikanischen Hochschulen sowie mit Friedensprozessen in der arabischen Welt, im südlichen Afrika und in Indien beschäftigt. Sie studierte Organisationsgestaltung am MIT, öffentliche Politik an der Harvard Kennedy School sowie politische und soziale Theorie an der University of Virginia.
 
 'Dies ist nicht nur ein Buch darüber, wie man besser argumentiert, sondern ein Leitfaden zum 
 Aufbau stärkerer Beziehungen. Wenn Familien, Arbeitsplätze, Schulen und Regierungen den weisen Ratschlägen von Priya Parker folgen würden, wäre die Welt ein Stück weniger chaotisch.'

What We Ask Google

Drawing on seven years of field research in the sex industry, this book explores the transformative potential of entrepreneurship. The authors take readers into the worlds of feminist pornography, modern burlesque, escort collectives, erotic domination, and non-profit support organizations to share stories of the women and transgender people using their businesses to challenge dehumanization. In doing so, the book shows how entrepreneurship is not just a tool for economic emancipation, but a vehicle for reclaiming humanity. These insights challenge dominant narratives about sex work, gender, and stigmatized labour, while extending scholarship on entrepreneurship and institutional theory. The authors ultimately show that even in the most constrained and stigmatized environments, people can shape work on their own terms.

Challenging Dehumanization Through Entrepreneurship in the Sex Industry

Bodies of Resistance

Examines the discordance among the public over controversial historic monumentsand how it should be addressed, highlighting how iconoclasm is confronted through global heritage management theory.

Throughout the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, the United States and Canada rarely experienced iconoclasm, the premeditated destruction of visual symbols, because of their specific emotional or ideological content in the public square. This is changing. As North Americans continue to reject the tangible and intangible heritage of institutionalized white supremacy, iconoclasm acts are happening with greater frequency. The death of George Floyd in May 2020 hastened the demand by Americans to remove historic monuments; so much so, that protesters took matters into their own hands and pulled down statues of historical figures, not limited to the American Civil War but also associated with European colonialism before the American Revolution and during the reign of Queen Victoria in Canada.&nbsp;

For historic preservationists and conservationists, iconoclasm is now the most consequential issue in the field and will continue to be a matter of contention for the foreseeable future. Motives for enacting iconoclasm can be justified, but what are the consequences for doing so, and how, in turn, will this determine the future of our public spaces in towns and cities? More fundamentally, is the current period of iconoclasm leading us to reconsider the public square as part of the built environment? This book will be the first theory-informed work to examine the discordance among the public over controversial historic monuments in the historic landscape and how it should be addressed. It challenges architects, landscape architects, conservationists, preservationists, elected officials, and the public to reconsider the public square and whether or not civic art that memorializes is still relevant or a practice that can be reimagined. It also considers the after-effects of iconoclasm acts: How should we redesign public civic spaces after we have either destroyed or removed historic monuments? As societal values change in regard to public memorialization, how will heritage practitioners, conservationist technicians, and urban designers grapple with working in the civic realm, which may be considered antiquated but continues to exist in our cities?

The book examines how iconoclasm is confronted through global heritage management theory. During the second half of the twentieth century, UNESCO and the European Union drafted charters to protect historic monuments from acts of war and degradation. The author considers these sets of principles and other international approaches to contested and conflicted heritage in addressing racism-based heritage that is embedded in North American heritage, from theoretical, architectural, and legal perspectives. France, which first experienced iconoclasm during the Revolution, has grappled with iconoclasm throughout its modern history. Revolutionary leader Henri Grégoire even invented a noun for it: "vandalism." Through the creation of an environment removed from a historic object's context-the public museum, the Louvre-France conceived institutional iconoclasm. From the revolutions and cultural upheavals of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries to the calamities of two world wars in the twentieth century, Europeans have developed policy and a legal framework that address iconoclasm. The book intends to examine this legal framework closely. It will inform the direction that the North American heritage field should take in order to accept that heritage changes, and must change, in response to our own needs to acknowledge multiple histories and identities in a diverse society, while simultaneously recognizing that iconoclasm is a part of how a society resolves its emotional responses to its built heritage.

Iconoclasm in the Public Square

A fresh interpretation of the Enlightenment that reshapes our understanding of political economy and its intellectual foundations.The origins of political economy are often told as a story of increasing certainty, rationality, and scientific progress. But what if its earliest thinkers were instead preoccupied with uncertainty? In Doubtful Knowledge, Richard Adelman offers a striking new interpretation of eighteenth-century political economy by tracing its roots to the skeptical philosophy of the European Enlightenment.Moving between Scotland and France, Adelman reveals how figures including David Hume, Adam Smith, Denis Diderot, Jean Le Rond d'Alembert, François Quesnay, and the Physiocrats developed a shared understanding of the limits of human knowledge. Rather than presenting markets or societies as systems that could be fully understood or controlled, they emphasized the complexity of the social world, the fallibility of human judgment, and the need for intellectual humility. Through close readings of major philosophical and political-economic texts, Adelman demonstrates that skepticism was not peripheral to early political economy but fundamental to its emergence. Challenging long-held assumptions about the history of economics and Enlightenment thought, Doubtful Knowledge reframes debates about commerce, governance, progress, and human nature.By bringing together intellectual history, literary studies, philosophy, and the history of political economy, Adelman offers a compelling account of how eighteenth-century thinkers understood knowledge itself--and why their questions remain relevant to contemporary discussions about economics, politics, and the limits of expertise.

Foundations of Fashion Studies

By the 1940s the New York fashion industry had come into its own. Sportswear, which had evolved from its origins to include simple casual wear for travel, leisure, town and country, was at the centre of this shift. Drawing on an array of sources, this book examines how New York sportswear evolved during the 1930s and 1940s to become the definitive American style. It reveals how designers such as Claire McCardell, Clare Potter and Tina Leser created a fashion identity for New York that was as dynamic and modern as the city itself. Author Rebecca Arnold interrogates the American ideal of athletic, long-limbed women and looks for the first time at how sportswear impacted and was impacted by ideas of patriotism and democracy, as well as its links to notions of cleanliness and hygiene, and to 1930s theories of body image and contemporary dance. As part of the Foundations of Fashion Studies series, this classic text now includes a new foreword by Emma McClendon and a new afterword and further reading list by the author.
