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;

“A sabbatical might be the most important career move you ever make. Read this book to see why—and how to do it.” —Arthur C. Brooks, Harvard Professor and #1 New York Times bestselling author A guide to transforming your well-being and your career through purposeful time off, from Harvard Business School Senior Lecturer and founder of the Sabbatical Project. Our world of work prioritizes the urgent, but the most important moments of our life rarely happen at a desk. In Big Time Off, Sabbatical Project founder DJ DiDonna explores a simple but radical idea: sabbaticals help us avoid sleepwalking through life by giving us time to be present in moments of celebration, difficulty, and transition. Integrating original research and compelling stories of sabbatical-takers from all walks of life—from teachers and nonprofit leaders to startup founders and Fortune 500 employees—Big Time Off explores why extended time away from work has such a profound effect on people’s identity, relationships, creativity, and direction. You’ll learn: <ul> <li>When to take a sabbatical—and how to avoid waiting for a crisis to take off.</li> <li>Why sabbaticals—unlike vacations—help you forge a new career path, feel human again, and live a more authentic life.</li> <li>How to navigate your sabbatical using archetypes—the explorer, the seeker, and the achiever—and avoid common pitfalls.</li> <li>Best practices for individuals—no matter the circumstances—and organizations of all sizes to make extended leave possible and sustainable.</li> </ul> Whether you dream of making a big change, exploring the world, or simply carving out space to heal, think, and recalibrate, Big Time Off is your guide to creating a richer, more intentional life.

This second edition of The Palgrave Handbook of Criminology and the Global South&nbsp;significantly expands, develops and draws together the rapidly growing research and theory about crime, punishment, security, prisons, policing, gender violence, environmental justice, island justice and justice innovations from, of and about the Global South. It addresses the hegemonic bias in the production and dissemination of criminological knowledge and covers a huge scope of research methodologies and lines of inquiry to develop a transnational criminology inclusive of the experiences and perspectives of the Global South. It includes Indigenous, critical, green, southern, feminist, counter-colonial, post-colonial and de-colonial approaches. It seeks to&nbsp;contribute to the bridging of global divides and reducing inequities with the aim to democratise criminological knowledges.

A former public defender takes us behind the closed doors of America's criminal courts, revealing how the institutions that claim to protect us are doing the exact opposite—and offering a blueprint for finally fixing it. “A searing, compassionate, and utterly necessary book that pulls back the curtain with the clarity of a lawyer and the heart of someone who’s seen the criminal legal system’s devastating consequences up close.”—Michelle Alexander, author of The New Jim Crow As Americans, we are told a rose-tinted story about our criminal courts—that these are the hallowed halls of justice, that the purpose of our legal process is to find the truth, and that those who enforce the law are both equitable and heroic. But what if the reality is purposefully obscured to hide something rotten at the system’s core? In The Price of Mercy, attorney and former public defender Emily Galvin Almanza weaves hard data and unforgettable stories, dark humor and compelling evidence to tell us the truth about what’s really going on behind the closed doors of America’s criminal courts. She shows us how jails actually increase future crime, the dirty tricks police use to make millions in overtime pay, how a man could spend decades in prison because scientists mistook dog hair for his own, the perverse incentives that push prosecutors to seek convictions even when they themselves don’t want to, and how judges may decide cases differently after lunch. We’ll learn what’s working, too: how public defenders can improve public health and even economic mobility, and how planting more trees can reduce a neighborhood’s murder rates. But a lone defender winning a case won’t change the system. Galvin Almanza argues that we need an engaged public to confront the stark reality of our crime-generating, poverty-entrenching, health-destroying legal apparatus and rebuild it into something that can save our collective present and prevent our future from being torn apart. Provocative and eye-opening, The Price of Mercy lifts the curtain on the way our laws really operate and presents a path forward for true transformation of the American criminal court system. Justice, and the law itself, is not some static thing. It is something enacted together, decision by decision, in acts of inhumanity or mercy.

It's Not too Late to Build Toward a Better Future!Rick Caruso has earned a reputation for being a problem solver--somebody who's not afraid of facing big challenges. From his appointment to Water Commissioner and later Police Commissioner in Los Angeles to his bold real estate ventures, Caruso made the decisions he felt were right, even in the face of staunch adversity. In Its Not Too Late, Caruso shares the lessons he learned from his experiences while offering us all a path forward to a better future. At a time when more importance is placed on choosing sides than actually getting things done (let alone done right), Caruso offers refreshing perspective and will teach you how to let go of false divisions, and instead to embrace the search for actual answers and solutions.Togetherness, brotherhood, sisterhood, faith in each other, respect for each other, the ideals preached in almost every faith on Earth are the way forward, no matter how difficult the climb in front of us may seem. And ultimately, the only way we will get back on that path is for each of us to step up, with integrity, in whatever small way we can: for our kids, for our communities, for our country, and for each other.

The first woman to serve as United Nations Special Rapporteur for the Occupied Palestinian Territory conveys the spirit of a people through 10 unforgettable stories of resilience and humanity. Francesca Albanese is the most lucid voice against Israel’s apartheid policies in Gaza and the West Bank, a voice that has been heard around the world when it comes to speaking the truth about the Palestinian genocide. In the wake of October 7, 2023, and Israel’s retaliatory war, the renowned Italian jurist has become a lightning rod for her staunch defense of human rights.&nbsp; Reflecting on her years living in Jerusalem and her personal and professional journey toward understanding the Palestinian struggle, Albanese pays tribute to 10 people whose profoundly affecting stories opened her eyes, from Hind Rajab, a young Palestinian girl killed by Israeli forces, to the remarkable Jewish scholars who acted as Albanese’s mentors: forensic architect Eyal Weizman, trauma expert Gabor Maté, and Holocaust historian Alon Confino. When the World Sleeps is a courageous testimony of the harsh reality that Palestinians face. It raises critical questions about the past, present, and future of Palestine: What are the consequences of the occupation? Where is a refugee’s home? In what conditions do Palestinians live?&nbsp;With the uncertain end of the war, will there be a Palestinian state? Will Palestinians have the right to self-determination, and will they be able to live in peace, free at last from the coercion of Israel?

Love is humankind's supreme gift. Paulo Coelho, the internationally bestselling author of The Alchemist, teaches us how to embrace it.“I thought that I had already thought about everything you could think about Love when Henry Drummond’s sermon fell into my hands. My life changed a lot from the moment I read the words in this book and tried to put his teaching into practice.”—Paulo CoelhoWhat is love? In the 19th century, the young missionary Henry Drummond defined love as the culmination of nine elements:<ol><li>patience,</li><li>kindness,</li><li>generosity,</li><li>humility,</li><li>gentleness,</li><li>dedication,</li><li>tolerance,</li><li>sincerity, and</li><li>innocence.</li></ol>He laid this out in his sermon, “The Greatest Thing in the World,” which has become a classic and is, without doubt, one of the most beautiful texts ever written on love. Reflecting on this sermon and its subject, St. Paul’s Letter to the Corinthians, the admired spiritual teacher Paulo Coelho, author of The Alchemist, a fable of following your dream and one of Oprah’s “Best Self-Help Books of a Generation,” brings us on his own journey of deepening his practice of Love.Contrary to what we are used to hearing, the greatest treasure in the spiritual life is not faith, but love. No matter what your religious beliefs are, this feeling is, without doubt, the most rewarding way to live. In The Supreme Gift, Paulo Coelho adapts Henry Drummond’s text, offering a real and powerful message that will help us incorporate love into our daily life and experience all its transformational power in our lives.Freely adapted from the text by Henry Drummond
