Silva D: Language as Hope

Language as Hope

Virtuelle Lebenswelten

Die Universität ist immer schon eine Institution der Virtualität gewesen. Sie nimmt andere Welten, Gesellschaften, Wissensformen, Naturen oder Techniken in den Blick und ist eine Institution der Spekulationen ohne doppelten Boden - vor allem aber ein Raum des Austauschs, der Zirkulation und der Kommunikation sowie der Medien, die all dies ermöglichen. Die Beiträge machen Virtualität nicht nur zum Gegenstand, sondern begreifen sie als Medium der Forschung, der Lehre und der Universität. Sie erinnern an das, was wir tun, wenn wir an der Universität forschen und lehren und dabei über diese Institution nachdenken, indem wir die Möglichkeiten ihrer Zukünfte und die Versprechen ihrer Vergangenheiten ausloten.

Cambridge Studies in Constitutional Law

South Africa presents the perplexing paradox of arguably having the most progressive Constitution in the world, marked by full-throated socio-economic rights protection, while also being one of the most unequal countries in the world. This book takes seriously increasing sociopolitical challenges to the legitimacy of South Africa's post-apartheid legal order and scorching critiques of the constitutional settlement, against which many in the legal establishment bristle. Sindiso Mnisi develops 'Alter-Native Constitutionalism,' which is distinguished by equitable amalgamation of customary and common law with vernacular (or 'living') law, as a more compelling and just model for South Africa to adopt in its future than the legal pluralism that largely represents the afterlives of colonialism. This book draws on and contributes to international debates about the role of law in decolonising post-colonial orders and economic redistribution, addressing issues of poverty and inequality, gender, race, indigeneity, and customary vs vernacular law.

Alter-Native Constitutionalism

The go-to resource for uncovering, understanding and overcoming accent and linguistic bias in the workplace. The way you speak can determine everything from whether you get hired or promoted, to whether people listen to you in meetings. It can affect the strength of your business relationships and reputation, but also whether people think they can trust you. We hear accents loud and clear, yet often they are quietly derailing our efforts to create inclusive work environments where every voice is heard. Linguistic discrimination is still unrecognized in the great majority of Diversity, Equity &amp; Inclusion (DEI) circles, yet it underpins every type of discrimination in the workplace from race and age to gender, neurodiversity and even sexuality. It is the hidden bias that is derailing even the best DEI efforts. Accent Matters is the go-to resource for uncovering, understanding and overcoming linguistic bias in the workplace. Through fascinating stories and examples of accent bias from all over the world, you'll find out how you've been conditioned to prefer certain accents over others, and how those preferences interfere with the way you listen to and interact with those around you. For those who have accents, but especially for those who think they don't, this book will be an eye-opening journey into a fundamental bias that affects every aspect of our lives, both professionally and personally.

Zeitschrift für Kultur- und Kollektivwissenschaft

Die 'Zeitschrift für Kultur- und Kollektivwissenschaft' ist ein Forum, das auf der Grundlage der Kulturwissenschaft eine Kollektivwissenschaft entwickeln möchte. Diese angestrebte neue Disziplin lenkt den Blick auf das Kollektiv als Kulturträger und dient damit zum einen der praktischen Kulturforschung und gewährt zum anderen neuartige Einblicke in das Wesen des Sozialen. Der weit gefasste Begriff des Kollektivs tritt an die Stelle der traditionellen Gruppen- und Gesellschaftskonzepte und macht bisher verborgene Schichten menschlicher Gemeinschaftlichkeit zugänglich. Heft 11/2 widmet sich der Rolle von Kollektivität in einem von individueller Genialität geprägten Feld: der Kunst. Anhand von Chören, Jazz-Bands, Musikfestivals, dem Kollektiv ruangrupa, Designmoden, Filmen und Architekturkonzepten gehen die Beiträger*innen der Frage nach, welche besonderen Herausforderungen die kollektive künstlerische Kooperation birgt, wie diese Kooperation künstlerisch adressiert wird und was sich bei ihrer Reflexion über Kollektivität im Allgemeinen erfahren lässt.

Themes in Contemporary Archaeology

This book explores multicultural religious interactions in Ancient Central and South Asia. Besides encompassing a vast chronological and geographical range, the themes of this book represent a broad illustration of the current main approaches, methodologies, and perspectives on Ancient Central and South Asia studies, including the establishment of new sacred spaces; the introduction of new rituals, ceremonies, and convivial practices; archaeological evidence for religious interaction, coexistence, and conflict, among others. In this book, archaeologists, historians, art historians, and linguists come together to demonstrate the intensity and complexity of cultural interactions within the religious landscape from the fourth century BCE till the fourth century CE.

Moving beyond traditional approaches of acculturation, the book reveals the dynamics between cultures and emphasizes local agencies in selecting and appropriating religious praxis, thus highlighting not only the impact of religious interactions but also the wider cultural impact of human interactions. The book provides both specialist and non-specialist audiences with new data and fresh perspectives regarding interactions between cultures in Ancient Central and South Asia, in turn allowing us to comprehend similar nodes of interactions within the modern context. Its geographical and temporal scope will be interesting to readers working on both European and South Asian history, art, and archaeology. This volume is relevant to scholars studying other areas as well, as it traces the spread and transformation of religious conceptions, objects, representations, and practices, with our regions serving as key nodes in this global system.

Volume 2: Sociolinguistics of Protesting

Contributions to the Sociology of Language [CSL]

Contemporary sociolinguistic theorizing is concerned with the study of social solidarity in differential contexts of power, so it must engage with protesting discourses and practices. In two volumes, 
 Sociolinguistics of Protesting
 addresses the socio-discursivity of protesting from different geopolitical perspectives and illustrates how protests are socio-semiotically organized and narrated.
 &nbsp;Volume 1
 critically rethinks protest as a central sociolinguistic practice rather than an exception to an imagined social order. Drawing on transdisciplinary and various case studies - from the Arab revolutions to Hong Kong's Lennon Walls and South Africa's student uprisings - this volume explores how language, embodiment, and space intersect in acts of resistance. It is the first of a two-volume set that reshapes the field's understanding of language in times of crisis and uprising. With a foreword by Mariem Guellouz.
 &nbsp;
 In 
 Volume 2
 (the current volume), scholars explore the complex intersections between protest, language, and decolonial thought. It challenges dominant linguistic ideologies by uncovering how language is wielded, contested, and reimagined in protests against racial, gendered, and colonial violence. From Black feminist activism in the U.S. to anti-mining movements in South Africa and pandemic protests in Chile, the chapters examine how diverse (embodied) linguistic practices resist dominant power structures and give voice to marginalized communities. With a foreword by Nick Faraclas.

Psychoanalyse

Was ermöglicht es dem Subjekt, nicht vollständig in den normativen Anrufungen der Gesellschaft aufzugehen? Eva Laquièze-Waniek setzt sich mit der Resthaftigkeit des Subjekts auseinander und rückt sie erstmals in den Mittelpunkt einer psychoanalytischen Analyse. Sie zeigt, dass der Rest als unabdingbare Voraussetzung der Subjektkonstitution und als Quelle des symbolischen 'Ankommens' zu betrachten ist. Diese von Lacan und Freud ausgehende neue Sicht auf das Subjekt fokussiert dabei die Rolle der Sprache im Verhältnis zum Sexuellen und Realen sowie die Ursache von Begehren, Identifizierung und Sublimierung.

Regensburger Beiträge zur Digitalisierung des Gesundheitswesens

Die fortschreitende Digitalisierung bringt die komplexen Wechselwirkungen zwischen Pflege, Kultur und Gesellschaft durcheinander. Die Beiträger*innen zeigen, dass in der Pflege ein Kulturwandel in vollem Gange ist, der die Entwicklung einer kultursensiblen Pflege erfordert. Neben den Auswirkungen&nbsp;der neuen Technologien beleuchten sie auch die Themen Migration und&nbsp;darauf aufbauende Machtstrukturen und bieten so eine umfassende, interdisziplinäre Einführung in die modernen Herausforderungen der Pflege, die nicht nur für Wissenschaftler*innen interessant ist, sondern auch praxisbezogene Fragen aufgreift.&nbsp;
