Studienkurs Medien &Kommunikation

Kaum ein Thema innerhalb der medienkulturwissenschaftlichen Lehre ist derart beliebt wie dasjenige der Medienästhetik - und zugleich in hohem Maße 'unsicher'. Denn es ist längst noch nicht klar, was überhaupt unter 'Medienästhetik' zu verstehen ist, was jene bedeutet, was sie will und was sie erfordert bzw. welche Zugriffe und Erklärungen sowohl insgesamt wie exemplarisch für das Studium der Medien mit ihr vermittelt und erlernt werden können. Umso notwendiger ist ein Lehrbuch Medienästhetik, das als eine Grundlegung funktioniert. Der Band verortet einerseits das Gebiet der Medienästhetik im wissenschaftlichen Diskurs. Andererseits werden einschlägige theoretische Konzepte vorgestellt sowie entsprechende Praktiken erläutert.

Debates in World History

This concise introduction offers an overview of the global rise and spread of nationalism since the late 18th century. Reflecting on key themes and scholarship it presents case studies and primary sources to track the emergence of the modern nation, and understand how nationalism has given rise to phenomena such as identity-based conflict, authoritarian politics and populist movements. Debating Nationalism goes beyond a European focus to explore how nationalism has led to the emergence of nation states, ethnic conflict and how it is expressed everyday over the last 300 years. It engages with key debates such as the origins of nations and the dynamics of ethnic conflict and uses a historical lens to shed light on contemporary issues around migration, diversity and authoritarian politics. This updated and revised edition includes updates on recent developments and the latest literature with additional material throughout, covering the rise of the far-right, Covid-19, Russian aggression against Ukraine and the war in Gaza, and topics including everyday nationalism, culture, minority nationalist politics, gender, and post-colonial authoritarianism. With new further reading sections, a dedicated chapter as a guide to key debates and a glossary of terms, this book offers students a holistic understanding of the history of nationalism.

Rhetoric, Politics and Society

This timely collection develops concepts and refines research methods to better understand contemporary strategies in political persuasion. The book introduces an innovative analytical framework to explore dramaturgical rhetoric, applicable across various public arenas ranging from policy-making to current affairs media and activism. It features a set of empirical case studies on political discourse from six European countries (Finland, Germany, Hungary, Iceland, Portugal, Russia) and draws on epistemic governance and cultural membership categorisation analysis to develop a new research field of “political poetics”. The contributors to the volume deal with themes such as shifting evaluative scenes, interrelational identifications, temporal trajectories, and obliging moral address to provide new insights into moral casting. The book enhances critical literacy in political interaction and offers scholars and students alike with valuable new perspectives to grasp the relationship between rhetoric and democracy in the era of post-truth politics.Hanna Rautajoki&nbsp;is&nbsp;Lecturer and the Head of Discipline in Sociology at Tampere University, Finland. Her research centers on strategic uses of identifications in social interaction. Rautajoki has extensive experience in interdisciplinary collaboration, covering topics from institutional interaction, political rhetoric, affective communication, narratives and membership categorization.Richard Fitzgerald is Professor of Communication at the University of Macau, China&nbsp;(SAR). He has researched and written extensively on methods of qualitative discourse analysis with particular focus on Membership Categorisation Analysis.

Studienkurs Soziologie

Das Lehrbuch bietet übersichtliche Erläuterungen von grundlegenden Theorietraditionen in der Soziologie, die systematisch durch den Bezug zu Grundfragen des Fachs verständlich gemacht werden. Zu diesen Fragen zählen elementare Bestimmungen des sozialen Handelns, institutioneller Ordnungen und sozialer Subjektivität wie auch epistemologische Herausforderungen, die das methodische Verständnis von Theoriebildung und Theoriegebrauch berühren. Damit ist der Band für den Einstieg in die Soziologie durch Studierende und Interessierte ebenso geeignet, wie er allgemein der Orientierung über den Sinn generalisierender Begriffe und soziologischer Reflexionen der Gesellschaft dient.

Populism, a significant phenomenon in today’s liberal democracies, deserves in-depth analysis, and here is the most comprehensive book on populism recently, covering the Politics of Populism as well as the Economics of Populism and What to Do About It.&nbsp; So far, the discussion has suffered from the fact that social scientists critical of capitalism have used populism as a new opportunity to rail against the market economy or that populism has been seen as an understandable “cultural backlash” against the excesses of green and left-wing activists.&nbsp; Neither approach points to a realistic solution.&nbsp; Heiko J. Starossom’s analysis, presented in his book, boldly departs from the traditional approach, offering a fresh and enlightening perspective.&nbsp; He examines populism from an interdisciplinary point of view, not just focusing on the economy but also including cultural and psychological aspects, leaving the ideological left-right scheme behind.&nbsp; One way to address a problem is to eliminate its causes.&nbsp; In the “Politics of Populism,” he identifies three leading political causes: “cartel parties” or the convergence of the major political parties, the latent authoritarian tendency of a significant proportion of the population, and the loss of established status–a concept that refers to the erosion of traditional social hierarchies and norms.&nbsp; In the context of the “Economics of Populism,” possible economic triggers of populism are unemployment and pressure on wages due to globalization or technological progress and economic inequality.&nbsp; Unfortunately, there may be no easy solution to the principal political and economic drivers of populism.&nbsp; The answer, thus, lies in a revitalized philosophy that champions the meaning in life and places the community at its center.&nbsp; Strengthening human relationships in family and community is perhaps the most critical source of meaning in life and could be a promising solution worth trying.&nbsp; &nbsp;The AuthorHeiko J. Starossom, an adjunct professor at the University of Bremen, Germany, divides his time between Naples, Florida, and Bremen, Germany. &nbsp;
