Thomas Hobbes. Leben und Lehre 1896 - 1925

Salto

Zweifellos gehört Djuna Barnes zu den berühmten unabhängigen und selbständigen Frauen, die zu Beginn des 20. Jahrhunderts die Bühne betraten. Mit wachsendem eigenem Renommee befragt sie im New York und Paris der 1910er bis 1920er Jahre als Journalistin und Autorin Frauen, die hinter den Männern hervorgetreten waren. Mit dabei: Mary Jones, Yvette Guilbert, Kiki vom Montparnasse, Coco Chanel.

Solange es Frauen gibt, wie sollte da etwas vor die Hunde gehen ?

edition suhrkamp

Umfragen unter verschiedenen Berufsgruppen haben ein erschreckendes Phänomen ans Licht gebracht: Gewalt gegen Amtsträgerinnen und das Personal öffentlicher Einrichtungen. Dies betrifft Bürgermeisterinnen und Feuerwehrleute, aber auch Gerichtsvollzieher, die Mitarbeiterinnen von Job-Centern und Schiedsrichter in Amateurligen. 
 
 Wilhelm Heitmeyer hat sich in einer Vielzahl vielbeachteter Studien mit Menschenfeindlichkeit und Gewalt befasst. Er analysiert diese im Zusammenhang mit der Ökonomisierung des Sozialen, mit Kontrollverlusten und einem zunehmenden Gefühl der Orientierungslosigkeit. In seinem neuen Buch zeichnet Heitmeyer nach, wie Verrohung und Gewalt den Alltag durchdringen. Und er fragt, wie solches Verhalten von durchrohten Strukturen in Institutionen beeinflusst wird.

Die Durchrohung der Gesellschaft

An adoptive parent and historian delves into the differences of families made by law, not biology-- and shows us the deep value of those differences Adoption touches on some of our most vexing social questions, about race and sexuality, abortion rights, economic inequality, even foreign policy and global poverty. More than that, it prods us in tender places, reminding us of our own questions about belonging and separation, identity and alienation, our worries about what is determined by fate and what is freely choose. Blending personal memoir, history, and broader reflection on American culture, Ordinary Days and Tender Places offers a fresh take on adoption. As an historian and an adoptive parent, Bendroth takes seriously the criticisms and the personal pain many adoptees face, but she also invites readers to take a bigger view. This book asks us to turn the mirror on ourselves and consider the peculiarities of what we consider “normal” family life. In the end, our questions and controversies obscure a basic fact: raising children born to someone else is a time-honored human practice. In the past and in many cultures today, our modern American ideal, the two-parent biologically-related nuclear family, is an oddity. Within the long history of humanity our ideas about kinship and our beliefs about what constitutes a “normal” household are surprisingly narrow and, in the end, not all that helpful. Bendroth introduces readers to new ways of thinking about adoption, exploring the history of American families and children as well as fascinating findings by biologists and evolutionary anthropologists about kinship practices, genetics and inheritance, even motherhood itself. This is, in other words, a book about adoption and much more. It is an invitation to readers to reflect on their own lives, to think deeply about our human need to connect, to love, and belong.

How We Talk (and Don't Talk) About Adoption in America

Ordinary Days and Tender Places

Drawing on themes from Africa Yearbook chapters on Madagascar, this book charts the country's journey through some of its most turbulent years. Democracy, marked by uneven progress, has weathered repeated elections, an unconstitutional government overthrow, rising social movements, and shifting domestic and international alliances. During this time, Madagascar witnessed extraordinary per capita international donor investment, signaling both global interest and urgent need. Yet the country remains a paradox: a place where solid institutions and pockets of economic growth persist alongside some of the world's deepest poverty and most fragile democratic practices. It is a story of resilience, contradiction, and transformation.

Two Decades of Madagascar

To paraphrase Sir Winston Churchill, never has so much pornography been available to so many people for so little. This is the story of how the online adult industry has plummeted from its lofty heights of the late 1990s, when a savvy Web entrepreneur could charge premium prices to thousands of eager subscribers. It is also the story of how the law has completely failed to keep pace with the technological innovations that boosted and then savaged the online adult industry. It concludes by analysing the social impact of virtually unlimited pornography of every description, available to all ages at the click of a button. Useful reading for the general reader and for students and researchers involved with business strategy, the history of technology, cultural studies, sexuality, media studies and technology more generally.

Schleiermacher-Archiv

Friedrich Schleiermachers christliche Sittenlehre wird vielfach als Kulturtheorie gedeutet, zumal alle wesentlichen Lebensbereiche im Bezug zum Christentum untersucht werden. Dabei geht Schleiermacher äußerst systematisch vor: So beruht seine Kulturtheorie des Christentums auf einem handlungstheoretischen Fundament (und ist nach drei Typen des Handelns unterteilt). Folglich finden sich reichlich Material und zugleich Begrifflichkeiten sowie systematische Zusammenhänge zur weiteren Reflexion und Erforschung. Mithin beschäftigen sich viele Beiträge des Bandes mit Interpretationen der christlichen Sittenlehre - auch vor dem Hintergrund der weiteren Entwicklung der Moderne. Dass Schleiermachers theologische Ethik es wert ist, aus verschiedenen Blickwinkeln erneut interpretiert zu werden, rechtfertigt die Entstehung einer neuen Edition. 1843 hatte sein Schüler Ludwig Jonas eine verdienstvolle, aber nach heutigen Editionsstandards nicht mehr geeignete Publikation der Vorlesungsmanuskripte Schleiermachers und der studentischen Nachschriften in kompilierter Form herausgegeben. In Zukunft werden die Manuskripte und alle überlieferten studentischen Nachschriften digital und historisch-kritisch erfasst zugänglich sein. Überlegungen zur neuen Edition eröffnen daher den Band. Da Schleiermacher mehrere Disziplinen in einem systematischen Zusammenhang beforschte und unterrichtete, sind viele Anhaltspunkte für Kontextualisierungen gegeben. Einige der Aufsätze stellen die christliche Sittenlehre mit anderen Disziplinen aus Schleiermachers Werk ins Verhältnis, andere gehen darüber hinaus und stellen auch einen Bezug zu aktuellen Themen her.&nbsp;

First published in 1982, Professional Power and Social Welfare examines the nature, extent and significance of professional power in the broad area of social welfare. Paul Wilding fills a major gap in the literature of the welfare professions. He looks at the power of the professions in policymaking, in resource allocation, their power over people, their power to define needs and problems, and their limited accountability. He analyses the basis of this power, and reviews criticism of the claims, achievements, knowledge and ideals of the professions. His conclusion is that the only satisfactory relationship between professions, clients and society must be one of partnership: a balance of professional, political, bureaucratic and consumer power. This book will be of interest to students of sociology and political science.

Professional Power and Social Welfare

L'auteur a décidé d'écrire ce pamphlet afin d'exprimer sa déception vis-à-vis de l'Allemagne. L'évolution de l'Allemagne au cours des 20 dernières années lui donne notamment lieu à des inquiétudes, à de la frustration et très souvent à de la colère. 

En observant notre pays de plus près, notamment du point de vue de l'étranger, on constate que des symptômes de déclin social sont apparus de manière significative, qu'il s'agisse du manque de respect, de l'hypocrisie, de la fausseté, du fait de ne représenter rien ni personne, ce qu'incarnent notamment la génération Merkel. ' Que m'importent mes voisins, l'essentiel est que ma vie et mon ascension sociale soient assurées. ' Depuis 2005, sous les gouvernements d'Angela Merkel, mais aussi de ses successeurs, l'Allemagne est tombée dans un sommeil profond dont le réveil sera très douloureux. Les économies absurdes à tout prix et la réduction des prestations de l'État ne reposent sur aucune base ni sur aucune connaissance économique raisonnable. Le soi-disant ' zéro noir ' dans le budget n'existe pas dans la théorie économique. 

L'ensemble des infrastructures allemandes, son état moral, sa constitution sociale et sa réputation internationale ont fortement souffert. L'intolérance, le racisme, la haine, l'antisémitisme et l'islamophobie ont considérablement augmenté. La politique n'est plus en mesure de maîtriser cette situation et il appartient désormais à nous, la société, de nous lever et de mettre un terme à ces développements. 
L'avenir de notre pays et de nos enfants, notre prospérité, notre bonheur et notre position dans le monde en dépendent. 
Dans ce contexte, cet ouvrage met le doigt sur les plaies de l'Allemagne d'aujourd'hui. Un livre pour ceux qui s'interrogent sur eux-mêmes et sur la société, un livre contre l'hypocrisie et la lâcheté de la société et de la politique allemandes. Ce comportement se retrouve sous une forme similaire dans d'autres sociétés occidentales.

Seigneur, Ne leur pardonne pas, Car ils savent, Ce qu'ils font !

La historia, la literatura, la filosofía o las artes se han conformado como reflejo de la relación entre cultura y política. Su entramado de alianzas, oposiciones, enamoramientos y apropiaciones han definido, y definen nuestro mundo. Política y la cultura friccionan porque, en sí mismos, son dos poderes, aunque interdependientes, a los que incomoda el sometimiento.
En la obra de César Antonio Molina la reflexión sobre la cultura y la política se entrelazan de una forma veraz, como un Odiseo que ha navegado en las dos aguas, y no con la impostura y desconocimiento del que solo ha visto el mundo desde una sola perspectiva.
Teniendo como hilo conductor la relación entre el intelectual y el poder, el autor teje en este libro una urdimbre de erudición, sentimiento y sabia clarividencia por el que transitan insurgentes como Aristóteles o Derrida, Dante o Hölderlin, Zambrano y Arendt. Todos ellos vistos por la incisiva y erudita óptica del compañero de armas, del iniciado en los mismos cultos mistéricos de la literatura y el pensamiento.

Insurgentes

"A riveting account of one death row inmate's quest to die-and a fearless look at how America's system of punishment has failed the public it claims to serve. When Scott Dozier was sent to Nevada's death row in 2007, convicted of a pair of grisly murders, he didn't cry foul or embark upon a protracted innocence campaign. He sought instead to expedite his execution-to hasten his inevitable death. He decided he would rather face his end swiftly than die slowly in solitary confinement. In volunteering for execution, Dozier may have been unusual. But in the tortuous events that led his death date to be scheduled and rescheduled, planned and then stayed, his time on death row was anything but. In The Volunteer, Emmy award-winning investigative reporter Gianna Toboni traces the twists and turns of Dozier's story, along the way offering a hard look at the history and controversy that surround the death penalty today. Toboni reveals it to be a system rife with black market dealings and supply chain labyrinths, with disputed drugs and botched executions. Today's death penalty, generally carried out through lethal injection, has proven so cumbersome, ineffective, and potentially harrowing that some states have considered a return to the electric chairs and firing squads of the past, believing those approaches to be not only more effective but more humane. No matter where you stand on the morality of capital punishment, there's no denying that the death penalty is failing the American public. With costs running into the billions and countless lives kept in limbo, it has proven incapable of achieving its desired end: executing the inmates that fellow Americans have deemed guilty of the most heinous crimes. With The Volunteer, Toboni offers an insightful and profound look at how the death penalty went so terribly wrong. A spellbinding story down to its shocking conclusion, it brings to light the horrifying realities of state-sanctioned killings-realities that many would prefer to ignore"--Provided by publisher.

Education in the Asia-Pacific Region: Issues, Concerns and Prospects

This book presents the results of a Hong Kong study that focused on refugees’ contributions, and potential, to support green urban development. It describes education about sustainability principles in non-formal skills development settings, and the benefits of this learning for refugees.

International studies highlight the importance of skills development for disadvantaged groups so they can effectively integrate into accepting societies. However, developing green skills that can help refugees engage in sustainability efforts in new settlements is new and proved successful in our Hong Kong study.

Theoretical and practical angles are used to explore the topic and emphasize the importance of a transformative design for skills development programs for disadvantaged groups as an educational response towards challenges of sustainable urban development. The book discusses the interplay between opportunity structures, agency, and the gendered experience and outlines the results of skills training on three levels – personal, community and society. This book applies a novel approach in searching for a positive view on refugees and their role in society.

The book also highlights social entrepreneurship and its impact on the personal and community levels, following skills training, in terms of behavioural change and participation in society’s sustainability efforts. Researchers, field workers at NGOs working with refugees, TVET practitioners and policymakers can benefit from this book as it includes recommendations for policy change.

Education for Refugees and Sustainable Green Urban Development

This book analyzes the legal tensions that exist in the economy that purports to "reanimate" the dead using postmortem digital technologies. Technological reanimation has proven to be big business, with many notable commercial entities investing in this "afterlife economy". Postmortem technologies convincingly replicate the appearance, physiognomy, conversation styles, and thought patterns of a deceased individual by generating digital copies that act in their stead. In the entertainment industry, new works can be created with dead celebrities through a postmortem copy that is managed by their representatives. The result is an economy in which the dead are offered as a product or service to consumers, with some having their artistic legacies extended past death through an "afterlife career". Many stakeholders stand to benefit from such a lucrative afterlife economy, but the law is simply not prepared for the issues that will arise with this exploitation of the dead. Reanimation requires the exploitation of one's reputation, persona, artistic works, and personal data. However, the corresponding legal protections are either nonexistent, inapplicable, or inconsistent across borders - depending on which posthumous interest is analyzed. In response, and by studying the contours of the existing legal protections in the afterlife economy, this book proposes a system rooted in the "shared ownership" of one's postmortem copy and the responsible "stewardship" of legacies through fiduciary duties.Law and the Digital Reanimation of the Dead will be of considerable interest to scholars working in the areas of entertainment law, intellectual property, and law and technology, as well as others with professional interests in the area.
