Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -Ein Buch von 1669 hat uns gelehrt, Landschaften und Orte mit historischen Erinnerungen zu verbinden. Die 'Monumenta Paderbornensia' des Fürstbischofs Ferdinand von Fürstenberg sind ein wegweisendes Werk für die westfälische Landesgeschichte.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -Wie war der Holocaust möglich Was ließ 'ganz normale Männer' zu Massenmördern werden Die historische Analyse demokratischen Zerfalls in Deutschland und in anderen europäischen Ländern kann Ausgangspunkt für die Erkenntnis ebensolcher Gefährdungen in heutigen Gesellschaften sein. Die Debatte um Täterschaft wurde vor einer Generation mit Christopher Brownings Buch 'Ordinary Men' wirkmächtig. Deutungskämpfe auch um Kategorien wie Kollaboration, Raum und Geschlecht waren indes kein rein deutsches Thema und sind in west-, mittel- und osteuropäischen Staaten, aber auch in anderen Teilen der Welt aktueller und umkämpfter als je zuvor. Denn Brownings Impuls war nicht nur auf die historische Forschung fokussiert, sondern auch auf gesellschaftliche Debatten um Verantwortung und ethische Konsequenzen für die nachfolgenden Generationen. Die Beiträge behandeln neue Ansätze zur Holocaustforschung und zu polizeilicher Täterschaft im Nationalsozialismus, ihre aktuellen gesellschaftspolitischen Lesarten und umkämpfte Bewusstseinsbildungen in multiethnischen Gesellschaften heute. 305 pp. Deutsch.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - What do you do that can't be measured In this innovative debut on both the practice and study of critical educators, Restler answers back with radical care. Radical care in teaching and research; radical care as embodied and affective; radical care as justice work up against real and imagined deficits and racial capitalist scarcities. Drawing on a collaborative visual study with New York City public school teachers and her own art-research practice, Victoria Restler offers up a framework for radical care as relational, liberatory and fundamentally immeasurable. Slipping between genres and styles--personal narrative, poetic prose, empirical study, and three multimodal artworks--this book brings old and new traditions in arts-based research into dialogue with scholarship on care, affect studies, and Black Feminisms. The volume is essential reading for scholars and practitioners interested in the study of care, qualitative and arts-based research methodologies, as well as teacher practice and assessment.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Winner of the 2024 Moral Development and Education AERA SIG 67 Outstanding Book Award! In Moral and Political Dimensions of Critical-Democratic Citizenship Education, Wiel Veugelers analyses theory, policy and practice of moral education and citizenship education in the past few decades. He shows that there are different orientations in national and global moral education and citizenship education. He criticises the strong orientation on the individual and on adaptation, and argues for more emphasises on social justice, equity and democracy. This volume brings together articles Veugelers published in the past 25 years. Each article is introduced by a reflection on the reasons for the article, its responses, and lessons that are still relevant. The book ends with a large chapter that overviews central developments and presents a programme for future theory, research, policy and practice in moral education and citizenship education with a strong focus on democracy and empowerment: the moral should become more political and the political more moral.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Leaders in English Language Arts Education Research contains autobiographical essays by leading English Language Arts scholars throughout the world.

This volume will also appeal to ELA researchers at all levels since it contains first-hand, personal narratives of well-established ELA researchers as they reflect on their own development as scholars.…

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Mahayana, Theravada, ancient, modern Even at the most basic level, the diversity of Buddhism makes a comprehensive approach daunting. This book is a first step in solving the problem. In foregrounding the bodies of practitioners, a solid platform for analysing the philosophy of Buddhism begins to become apparent. Building upon somaesthetics Buddhism is seen for its ameliorative effect, which spans the range of how the mind integrates with the body. This exploration of positive effect spans from dreams to medicine. Beyond the historical side of these questions, a contemporary analysis includes its intersection with art, philosophy, and ethnography.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - With temperature exhibiting a growing trend and posing threats to future generations, the Paris Agreement set a cap level of no more than 2°C for the temperature increase, emphasizing the need for cross-national participation to combat climate change. At the European level, the European Commission pledged to make Europe achieve carbon neutrality by mid-century. However, to deliver on its commitment, extensive financial support and engagement from both private and public-sector players were acknowledged as requisites. Therefore, through their funding mechanism, banks assumed a leading role in financing the transition to a green economy. However, a new challenge of systemic nature - i.e. ESG risks - emerged, gaining regulatory attention and subsequently triggering numerous regulatory reforms. Therefore, this study explores the current European regulatory environment addressing sustainability, aiming to identify whether such regulatory frameworks can be considered a strategic opportunity, or contrastingly, a strategic burden for credit institutions.…

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -This book's central argument is that oral forms of collective memory in Christian-Muslim engagements in orally-oriented societies are more effective than interreligious dialogue through the dominant written text based on elite-based concepts. The approach has dominated interreligious interactions. From the perspective of the social scientific study of interreligious encounters & collective memory in folklore studies, this book explores how orality and social remembrance articulated through folksong, oral narrative, and ritual performance strengthen interreligious engagements in the post-conflict society. The approach proposed in this book reclaims interreligious engagements based on the local Indonesian dynamic preserved in ritual performance, oral narrative, and folksong. This method articulates a contextualized interreligious engagement grounded in local culture. 201 pp. Englisch.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -'Das Wahre, Schöne, Gute' bildet das Leitgestirn am kulturellen Himmel vom Ende des 18. bis über das Ende des 19. Jahrhunderts hinaus. Entstanden ist die Trias im frühen 18. Jahrhundert, initiiert durch die Rezeption der platonischen Philosophie, die Debatte um den guten Geschmack und die Erweiterung der Philosophie um die Wissenschaft der Ästhetik. Während Kant und Schiller mit kritischem Bewusstsein den Zusammenhang und die Differenz des Wahren, Schönen und Guten erforschten, stand die Trias im 19. Jahrhundert als ubiquitäre Formel für das 'Höhere', die bürgerliche Bildungs- und Kunstreligion. Ihre Verwendung in Goethes 'Epilog zu Schillers Glocke' weihte sie mit beider Namen. Daran entzündete sich eine ideologiekritische und ästhetische Polemik. Fontane sah in dieser Trias nur ein Umcouren des Geldes. Für die europäische Avantgarde seit Mitte des 19. Jahrhunderts war sie Ausdruck einer banausischen Zweckentfremdung der Kunst. Der Fall der Trias begann. Ihre Anrufung war verpönt. Einher ging aber ihr stilles Fortbestehen, wie die Kunst- und Literaturkritik und die Debatten z. B. um Adornos Satz, wonach ein Gedicht nach Auschwitz zu schreiben barbarisch sei, oder um den 'Fall Esra' belegen. Es geht immer noch um die Frage, ob und wie in der Erfahrung der Kunst ästhetische mit moralischen und Wahrheitsansprüchen verbunden sind.2. Auflage 2023 141 pp. Deutsch.…

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Modernization and conversion to world religions are threatening the survival of traditional belief systems, leaving behind only mysterious traces of their existence. This book, based upon extensive research conducted over a period of nearly four decades, brings scientific rigor to one of the questions that have always attracted human curiosity: that of the origin of the dragon. The author demonstrates that both dragons and rainbows are cultural universals, that many of the traits that are attributed to dragons in widely separated parts of the planet are also attributed to rainbows, and that the number and antiquity of such shared traits cannot be attributed to chance or common inheritance, but rather to common cognitive pathways by which human psychology has responded to the natural environment in a wide array of cultures around the world.…

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - China, Laos, and Vietnam are three of a handful of late socialist countries where capitalist economics rubs up against party-state politics. In these countries, sweeping processes of change open up new vistas of opportunity and imaginaries of the future alongside much uncertainty and anxiety, especially for their large rural populations. Contributors to this edited volume demonstrate the diverse ways in which rural people build futures in this unique policy landscape and how their aspirations and desires are articulated as projects involving both citizens and the state. This produces a politics of development that happens through and around the state as people navigate discourses of betterment to imagine and make new futures at individual and collective levels.…

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - This book focuses on the crucial role of teaching in the process of tradition. The various essays present case studies, written by specialists in the field, on themes drawn from the biblical, Jewish and Christian practice of 'tradition', the passing on of faith from generation to generation. Underlying these essays is the conviction that teaching is a privileged context for the study of tradition, since it always both preserves and renews tradition. There is no tradition without teaching, in which the past is interpreted in the present and the present is seen in the light of the past. Contributors are: Jan Bouwens, Rob V.J. Faesen, Leon Mock, Jos Moons, Krijn Pansters, Henk J. M. Schoot, Rudi A. te Velde, Archibald L. H. M. van Wieringen, and Ruben J. van Wingerden.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Centring the Periphery: New Perspectives on Collecting East Asian Objects, edited by Natasa Vampelj Suhadolnik, explores East Asian collections in 'peripheral' areas of Europe and North America and their relationship with the East Asian collections in former imperial and colonial centres. The authors not only present the stories of a number of less well-known individual objects and collections, but also discuss the evolution of fashions and tastes in East Asian objects in areas that were not centres of European colonial power, and the socioeconomic conditions in which they were collected. To date, research on the collecting of East Asian objects in the Euro-American region has focused primarily on larger collections and collectors. The stories from the periphery, however, deserve to be told. They point to important departures from the dominant discourses and practices of East Asian collecting, thus raising questions about established taxonomies and knowledge systems. With contributions by Tina Berdajs, Chou Wei-Chiang, Györgyi Fajcsák, Jin Han, Sarah Laursen, Beatrix Mecsi, Motoh Helena, Stacey Pierson, Maria Sobotka, Filip Suchomel, Barbara Trnovec, Natasa Vampelj Suhadolnik, Brigid Vance, Maja Veselic, Natasa Visocnik Gerzelj, Bettina Zorn.…
