This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The book approaches the language experiments with great apes performed in the last 50 years from the point of view of logical semantics, speech act theory, and philosophy of the social sciences based on the linguistic turn in philosophy. The author reconstructs the experiments with the great apes Washoe, Chantek, Lana, Sherman, Austin, Kanzi, Sarah and Sheba who were taught various kinds of languages, including the language of mathematics. From the point of view of the philosophy of science these experiments are interpreted as being part of the social sciences. The book proposes new mathematical experiments that are based on modern semantical reconstruction of the language of mathematics. The author shows that modern scientific research into great apes has shifted from natural science to social science. 102 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Education, Assessment, and the Desire for Dissonance aims to address the contentious practice of assessment in schools and universities within a poststructuralist educational paradigm. Within the theoretical paradigm of Foucault's (1994) notions of governmentality, subjectification and dissonance, the book examines why, through which and in which ways (how) educational assessment should unfold considering the challenges of globalized and cosmopolitan dimensions of educational change that have beset educational institutions. Waghid and Davids show how conceptual derivatives of Foucauldian governmentality, in particular the notions of power, panopticon and surveillance, dispositive, freedom and resistance-as relational concepts-affect assessment in universities and schools. The authors argue why universities and schools cannot be complacent or non-responsive to current understandings and practices of assessment. In the main, the authors contend that a Foucauldian notion of powerful, subjectified and dissonant assessment can, firstly, be extended to an Agambenian (2011) notion of a profane, denudified and rhythmic form of assessment; and secondly, be enhanced by a Derridian (1997) idea of friendship that bridges a Foucauldian view of governmental assessment with an Agambenian view of ethical assessment. Friendship allows people to act responsibly towards one another-that is, teachers and students acting responsibility towards one another-and resonates with an ongoing pursuit of rhythmic assessment practices. Such a form of assessment opens up an attentiveness to the incalculable and unexpected encounters that bear the responsibility of acting with one another. The authors conclude that an assessment with teaching and learning can transcend the limitations of an assessment of learning and an assessment for learning. 186 pp. Englisch.

Als Quelle gibt das Varbuch Aufschluss über vor Gericht verhandelte Fälle von Kapitalverbrechen. Aus dem Vergleich normgebender Rechtsquellen mit der Strafrechtspraxis ergibt sich eine andauernde gesellschaftliche Ungleichheit zu Gunsten vermögender und angesehener Personengruppen vor Gericht. Durch die Aufnahme von Ansätzen der Historischen Kriminalitätsforschung liegt erstmals eine sozialgeschichtliche Analyse des Varbuchs als Quelle zur Kriminalitätsgeschichte vor. In der Schichtspezifik von Straftaten sowie der sozialen Einbindung, Spezialisierung und Mobilität der Delinquenten äußert sich die Alltäglichkeit spätmittelalterlicher, städtischer Kriminalität. 186 pp. Deutsch.

Für Hansetage um 1500 liegen Reiserechnungen von Teilnehmern sowie Gesandtschaftsberichte vor, die das informelle Prozedere hansischer Verhandlungen beleuchten. Im Abgleich mit der Reichstagsforschung werden die begrifflichen Grundlagen gelegt, um dann auf Basis eines kommunikationsgeschichtlichen Zugangs die gegenseitigen Ehrenbezeugungen theoretisch zu fassen. Betrachtet werden Kleidung, Beherbergung, Spielleute, Ehrenweingaben, Gastmähler, Prozessionen und Sitzordnungen. Die Ehrsemantik bildete einen Orientierungsrahmen und sicherte in Zeiten schwach ausgebildeter Verfasstheit die Kohärenz nach innen sowie Wandelbarkeit in der politischen Kommunikation. 154 pp. Deutsch.

C'est au XIX e siècle que l'admiration pour l'oeuvre sandienne se manifestait vivement à travers traductions, essais critiques, spectacles de théâtre, affinités subtiles dans l'oeuvre des grands romanciers. L'exemple de la vie de Sand encourageait les Polonaises dans leur activité. Dès le début du XX e siècle, l'image dominante de Sand devient celle de la maîtresse de Chopin. L'ouvrage, basé sur des sources inconnues, est unique à fournir une aussi riche bibliographie des traductions polonaises et à embrasser l'évolution de la réception de Sand en Pologne pendant près de deux siècles. 220 pp. Französisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Plaidoyer en faveur de l'Union européenne, ce livre critique néanmoins certains choix culturels qu'elle a faits lors de sa fondation et qui entravent aujourd'hui son intégration. Elle doit rebâtir ses fondements symboliques et redéfinir sa relation avec les nations (à ne pas confondre avec les États). Les orientations culturelles qu'elle a privilégiées à sa naissance lui ont permis de connaître un essor rapide, mais faute de les réviser à temps, elles sont devenues dysfonctionnelles. Or, les tentatives qu'elle a faites ultérieurement pour se donner de nouveaux mythes et une identité continentale ont échoué. Par ailleurs, les leaders de l'Union se sont toujours méfiés des nations et des nationalismes, accusés d'avoir provoqué les horreurs des deux guerres mondiales. Ils ont donc voulu les contourner en instituant une gouvernance par le haut d'où a résulté un déficit démocratique.L'Union devra désormais s'employer à se réconcilier avec les nations, en les réhabilitant, et à tirer profit de leurs ressources symboliques pour se doter de mythes ayant une résonance à la fois nationale et européenne. 228 pp. Französisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This book analyzes how the public character of judgments of taste makes implicit statements in moral and political philosophy. The framework that relates aesthetic, moral, and political aspects into such a triadic relationship is an implicit conception of freedom. In «The Critique of Judgment» Kant elaborates the idea that judgments of taste can only exist where society exists. The author regards Friedrich Schiller's and Hannah Arendt's approaches on the normative resources of Kant's aesthetics for moral and political thought. He evaluates the discovery of the presence of a constant feature of Kant's conception of freedom in both his aesthetic and moral theory: freedom as autonomy. 166 pp. Englisch.

Il tisse leur réflexion à partir d'un questionnement commun : qu'est ce qu'interpréter Comment s'approprier des connaissances à partir de documents Le numérique peut-il y aider En s'appuyant sur plusieurs projets de recherche, les auteurs conçoivent une plateforme informatique qui donne le rôle principal à la créativité de l'utilisateur.Adossé à la sémantique textuelle et à l'approche énactive, cet ouvrage tente un dessillement qui prenne le contre-pied des évidences ontologiques. Il rejette une vision réductionniste de l'humain issue du computationalisme et d'une approche managériale de la révolution numérique . Pour penser les interactions usager-plateforme, il articule la phénoménologie dans sa dimension sémiotique à l'herméneutique philologique appliquée à un corpus juridique.La question du sens et de son advenue sous-tend ce travail qui participe des sciences de la culture et ainsi s'ouvre à une réflexion éthique et politique comme le souligne François Rastier dans la préface. 328 pp. Französisch.

Emphasizing the historical, social, and cultural formation of conscious awareness, Jennifer A. Vadeboncoeur advances Vygotsky's project with current research in psychology, enabling the redefinition of central concepts such as learning, teaching, and developing. This attention to how we conceptualize learning and teaching is vital to the project of crafting schools to fulfill the promise of public education. Written for teacher candidates, educators, researchers, and policy-makers, this book both recognizes the complications of teaching and learning in public schools and contributes to the scholarship on the critical possibilities of schools as social institutions. The significance of public education for each and every child and teacher, and the future that is created in each student-teacher relationship, is re-centered as, perhaps, the most worthwhile project of our time. 344 pp. Englisch.

Having previously been told that her son Benny had 'failed to function' in two exclusionary special education classrooms in New York City, Berman's family set off in search of a school where Benny would be accepted for who he was, while having the opportunity to grow and flourish academically, socially, and emotionally alongside his brother, Adam. Connor's interest was piqued when Berman shared her desire to document the ways in which the new school community had supported Benny throughout the years. Together, they thought, surely other teachers, school and district level administrators, parents of children with and without disabilities, teacher educators, and student teachers, could learn from such a success story The result of their collaboration is this book in which Berman skillfully narrates episodes across time, describing ways in which children, teachers, educational assistants, parents, and a principal came to know Benny-developing numerous and often creative ways to include him in their classrooms, school, and community. Connor's commentaries after each chapter link practice to theory, revealing ways in which much of what the school community seems to 'do naturally' is, in fact, highly compatible with a Disability Studies in Education (DSE) approach to inclusive education. By illuminating multiple approaches that have worked to include Benny, the authors invite educators and families to envision further possibilities within their own contexts. 284 pp. Englisch.

The researchers investigated Corazón, a colonia in South Texas, as a case study of these unincorporated border settlements, consisting of mostly Mexican heritage residents and lacking many basic living necessities. Highlighting over ten years of research findings, the authors consider structural inequalities alongside the unique strengths of Corazón. Their acute observations dispel myths about such high-poverty communities and demonstrate how residents overcome the odds through activism, faith, and ganas. In presenting a portrait of the Corazón colonia, the authors offer a deeper level of understanding of one Latino community to inspire the development of a more equitable, compassionate world. This book will be invaluable to students and scholars of all fields who work with culturally diverse people in poverty, and will be ideal for courses in ethnic studies, multicultural studies, ethnographic methods, and socio-cultural applications for education. 278 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Phenomenology has become one of the most important philosophical traditions underpinning recent theory and research on new media, whether or not the word is used explicitly. Conditions of Mediation brings together, for the first time in a single publication, the diversity of phenomenological media research-from social platforms and wearable media to diasporic identity formation and the ethics of consumer technologies.The new orthodoxy in media studies emphasizes the experience of media-whether as forms, texts, technics or protocols-marking a departure from traditional approaches preoccupied with media content or its structural contexts. But phenomenologically informed approaches go beyond merely asking what people do with media. They ask a more profound question: what constitutes the conditions of mediated experience in the first place Beginning with an accessible introduction, this book invites readers to explore a wide range of phenomenological perspectives on media via two critical dialogues involving key thinkers alongside a series of theoretically sophisticated and empirically grounded chapters. In so doing, interdisciplinary media studies is brought into conversation with the work of philosophers such as Edmund Husserl, Martin Heidegger and Maurice Merleau-Ponty, as well as phenomenologically-inspired thinkers such as Erving Goffman, Pierre Bourdieu, Tim Ingold, Henri Lefebvre, Friedrich Kittler, Marshall McLuhan and Bernard Stiegler. 268 pp. Englisch.

From leisure and media consumption among Chinese migrant workers in a Guangdong village to the diverse networks and communication infrastructures of global cities like London and Los Angeles, this collection combines a range of perspectives to ask fundamental questions about the significance and status of cities in times of intensified mediation and connectivity.With case studies from Italy, Britain, Ireland, Russia, the United States and China, this international collection demonstrates that both empirical and critical knowledge on the relationship between communication and urban life has become vital across the humanities and social sciences.Communicating the City will be essential reading for all scholars and students who desire to gain an in-depth understanding of the multiple roles that media and communication have in lived experiences of the city. 246 pp. Englisch.

Student-run agencies are increasing in popularity, but building a successful agency is challenging.With more than ten years of experience supervising a student-run agency, Swanson examines the three critical roles a student agency must fulfill in order to be successful. First, the agency must be an exceptional environment for learning. Second, it must be a successful business-without satisfied clients, the agency will not survive. Third, it must be a supportive partner in both on- and off-campus communities.As the first book to address student-run agencies, Real World Career Preparation offers extensive 'how to' guidance, and is supported by 22 Agency Spotlight best practice examples from student-run agencies across the U.S. The book ends with a comprehensive directory of 158 university student-run agencies in operation all over the world.Real World Career Preparation is essential reading for any faculty member or administrator who is involved with an agency, or who plans to launch one in the future. This book is also valuable for college students working in an agency who seek 'the big picture' view of how their work for clients has long-lasting impact on the campus and the community. 314 pp. Englisch.

Da die Abgrenzung der leichten von der groben Fahrlässigkeit in der Praxis Schwierigkeiten bereitet, initiierten die Sach- und Haftpflichtversicherer im Jahre 2009 das Teilungsabkommen-Mieterregress, das die Regressabwicklung unter Ausschaltung des Dritten erleichtern sollte. Der Autor beleuchtet die Regressabwicklung in der Gebäudeversicherung nach den geänderten Rahmenbedingungen. Er entwickelt anhand von Beispielen aus Rechtsprechung und Literatur und basierend auf der Gesetzessystematik geeignete Rechtsprinzipien, die die Regressabwicklung erleichtern sollen. Das Buch untersucht dabei zentrale Themen des Versicherungsvertragsrechts, wie den Mieterregress, die grob fahrlässige Herbeiführung des Versicherungsfalls, den Quotenanspruch sowie den Regressverzicht. 160 pp. Deutsch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This is the first book to provide a comparative exploration of the gendered and sexual body in Mozambican literature, engaging with the work of six authors spanning different generations, styles and aesthetics. The study begins by providing a detailed and innovative survey of the dynamics of gender, sexuality and power in the Portuguese colonial and Mozambican post-independence contexts, from the nineteenth century to the turn of the millennium. This initial investigation provides the sociohistorical backdrop for in-depth analyses of representations, uses and subversions of the body in poetry and prose fiction by José Craveirinha, Noémia de Sousa, Lília Momplé, Ungulani Ba Ka Khosa, Paulina Chiziane and Suleiman Cassamo. Using a wide and interdisciplinary range of theoretical frameworks, the book offers a fresh and creative new perspective on Mozambican history, political life and literary output. 248 pp. Englisch.
