The Sociolinguistics of Gender in Public Life

Ziel dieses Buches ist es, das Phänomen der Digitalisierung aus philosophischer Sicht zu analysieren und zu problematisieren. Dazu wird der Blick auf ontologische, epistemologische, rationalitätstheoretische, moralphilosophische und ästhetische Aspekte des Lebens in einer digitalisierten Welt gerichtet. Folgende Fragen stehen dabei im Zentrum: Wie verhalten sich analoge und digitale Gegenstände zueinander? Inwiefern konstituiert die Digitalisierung eine eigene Kultur (die "Digitalität"), die von der analogen qualitativ verschieden ist? Gibt es so etwas wie eine digitale Realität und digitale Identitäten? Inwiefern lässt sich unser Denken digitalisieren und in künstliche Intelligenz transformieren? Welchen epistemischen und ontologischen Status haben künstliche neuronale Netze? Welche räumliche und zeitliche Logik liegt der Digitalisierung zugrunde? Welche Bedeutung kommt dem Internet zu, wenn es immer weiter und tiefer in unsere Lebenswelt eindringt und uns miteinander vernetzt? Welche neuen ästhetischen Ausdrucksformen bieten interaktive Computerspiele, die uns mittels Immersion in virtuelle Welten entführen? Wie muss eine Ethik der Digitalisierung verfasst sein, und wie unterscheidet sie sich von der Ethik unserer analogen Gesellschaft und Kultur? Wie können wir die digitale Informationsflut bewältigen und durch die Entwicklung von "digitalen Tugenden" Wichtiges von Unwichtigem unterscheiden lernen?

Realität – Virtualität – Normativität

Philosophie der Digitalität

Translational Systems Sciences

This book formulates an evolutionary and pluralistic view of social systems in the global age, especially with reference to Niklas Luhmann's theory of social systems. Several paired concepts, such as national society/world society, stratification/functional differentiation, diffuse/specific, universalistic/particularistic, and inclusion/exclusion, illustrate the transformation of social structure and its effects on the constructive principles of social systems and the definition of individual identity. Every functional subsystem has become more autonomous and the socio-cultural sources of individual identity have become more diversified than in the past. The book proposes the concept of the “intermediary unit” and discusses its significance and relevance in the social systems theory. In the background of this discussion, the reality is that there is no system of meaning and values that are valid in all areas of the world society that has emerged in the process of functional differentiation and globalization, nor can we design such a system theoretically. The significance of intermediary units is considered; the competition of intermediary units and meaning-value spaces in the actual social process is defined as the politics of meaning; and a new form of pluralism based on the concept of polycontexturality is proposed. These factors seem to make the whole world more and more complex, risky, uncertain, and nontransparent. The evolutionary and pluralistic design principles of social systems including various intermediary units improve our capacity to cope with future risks.

Astronomy and astrophysics library

This book is based in part on classroom tested lectures related to the first stars (Pop III stars), but also draws from the author's review articles of the main physical principles involved. The book will thus combine pedagogical introductory chapters with more advanced ones to survey the cutting-edge advances from the frontier of research.The formation of Pop III stars and galaxies is one of the great outstanding challenges in modern astrophysics and cosmology. The first stars are likely key drivers for early cosmic evolution and will be at the center of attention over the next decade. The best available space and ground-based telescopes like the Hubble Space Telescope probe the Universe to high redshifts and provide us with tantalizing hints; but they cannot yet directly detect the first generation of stars and the formation of the first galaxies. This is left as key science for future telescopes like the James Webb Space Telescope.The book covers the theory of first star formation, the relation between first stars and dark matter, their impact on cosmology, their observational signatures, the transition to normal star formation as well as the assembly of the first galaxies. It will prepare advanced students and researchers entering the field for interpreting observational findings and their cosmological implications.

Einführung in sein Werk

Zur Aktualität von Stuart Hall

By introducing readers to relativistic quantum field theory, this class-tested textbook delivers a concise and modern course in quantum electrodynamics. Its self-contained nature is enhanced by detailed derivations and introductory materials on quantum mechanics and special relativity. This advanced undergraduate textbook employs the elementary concepts of the Schrödinger equation, Dirac notation, the harmonic oscillator and the hydrogen atom in a clear and up-to-date structure, organized around topics in waves, particles and interactions. The text includes many worked problems and examples, end-of-chapter exercises and summaries, as well as enrichment topics and boxed formulas, derivations and definitions. The author's extensive and award-winning research in lasers and quantum optics, coupled with more than 20 years of teaching experience with the course, well equipped him for this task.

This book examines climate change and the need for advertising creatives to think and create strategically in order to educate about the human role in climate adaptation.&nbsp;As more brands and organizations feel the economic and cultural effects of climate realities, there is an urgent need for the advertising industry to offer smarter, creative approaches to messaging about this phenomenon. Creatives must use their ability to translate complex issues into messages that resonate with multiple audiences while&nbsp;bridge the gap between consumers and climate understanding. The author argues that brands and corporations have a social responsibilty to provide this value, thereby fighting misinformation and emboldening citizens to work toward adaptive behaviors with understanding of basic climate science. Through the themes of complexity, creativity, and courage, this book synthesizes theory on audience engagement and discusses how to frame the climate issue effectively.

Global Perspectives on Health Geography

In this book, readers will learn learn about the equity and ethical&nbsp;issues associated with the practice of medical tourism in the Caribbean. Never before has a book discussed medical tourism with an exclusive focus on the opportunities&nbsp;and challenges it poses in the Caribbean region. As a region heavily dependent on tourism for economic sustainability, many Caribbean nations are looking to diversify their tourism sectors through involvement in medical tourism. In nine chapters, the book examines medical tourism through the lens of the Caribbean region to understand how and why this offshoring sector is unfolding in the way is and to consider who benefits from and is harmed by this global health services practice.&nbsp; This book is based on the author's first-hand research throughout the Caribbean region. The chapters are framed around specific insights she has gleaned&nbsp;about how medical tourism is unfolding in the region and its ethical&nbsp;and&nbsp;implications. Chapter 1 gives an overview of the global health services practice of medical tourism, and briefly introduces readers to the Caribbean region. Chapter 2 offers criticisms about the reliability of the information made available about medical tourism, not just in the Caribbean but also globally. Chapters 3 through 7 examine the complexities associated with competition&nbsp;between countries, the movement of locals and tourists between islands, the intersection of medical tourism and mobilities such as offshore medical schools, and the networks of impact resulting from the rise of medical tourism. Chapters 8 and 9 introduce the idea that there are 'winners' and 'losers' associated with medical tourism throughout the Caribbean region and that there is complexity with determining who falls into which group. This book will be of interest to students, academics, researchers, and policy makers involved with medical geography, global health, and health policy.&nbsp;

Insights, Impacts, and Implications

Medical Tourism in the Caribbean Region

Transparency has become a ubiquitous presence in seemingly every sphere of social, economic, and political life. Yet, for all the claims that transparency works, little attention has been paid to how it works - even when it fails to achieve its goals. Instead of assuming that transparency is itself transparent, this book questions the technological practices, material qualities, and institutional standards producing transparency in extractive, commodity trading, and agricultural sites. Furthermore, it asks: how is transparency certified and standardized? How is it regimented by 'ethical' and 'responsible' businesses, or valued by traders and investors, from auction rooms to sustainability reports? The contributions bring nuanced answers to these questions, approaching transparency through four key organizing concepts, namely disclosure, immediacy, trust, and truth. These are concepts that anchor the making of transparency across the lifespan of global commodities. This title is also available as Open Access on Cambridge Core.
