Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This book argues that American colleges and universities need to enlarge their understanding of pluralism and multiculturalism by sponsoring open, challenging, spiritually and educationally revitalizing conversations among students… about genuine religious difference. Although religious difference is a pivotal component of cultural pluralism, too often today it gets ignored, marginalized, or sugar-coated in higher education. Together administrators, faculty, and students must take the initiative to transform the academy into an exciting space for robust and respectful religious dialogue throughout the campus. This book offers a number of concrete examples and strategies in each chapter for achieving this objective. 232 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Re/Constructing Elementary Science seeks to improve the way science is taught in the elementary school. There are three main contradictions that make it difficult for teachers and students to engage in meaningful activities from wh…ich understandings result. The central issues in this book are framed in terms of three dichotomies that lead to tensions arising from the dialectic of opposing aspects of teaching and learning. First, there is a tension between learning as an individual process (cultural production) and as a cultural process (cultural reproduction). Second, there is a tension between science and technology (applied science). Finally, there exists a tension between children's interaction with nature and their language for describing and explaining nature. Exemplary case studies are featured that show the tremendous capabilities of elementary students to talk about technology and, in the process, to learn to talk science. These case studies are couched in an ongoing professional dialogue among the authors and the requirements to make such exemplary science happen in other classrooms. 340 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Weiss's substantial oeuvre has become a casualty of the cold war's end, the collapse of socialism, and the beginning of a new millennium - as one would call it.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The theatre, both as metaphor and practice, is central to Cixous' writing, yet has rarely been accorded the importance it merits within her oeuvre. The constant concerns of her work are represented and explored in plays which addre…ss individual and collective stories of difference, exile, love and writing. This book offers a clear contextualisation of Cixous' theatre alongside detailed analyses of individual plays and argues for a reading of Cixous' theatre as a dramatisation of the writing process. 170 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -In this second edition of Getting Beyond the Facts, Kincheloe presents a comprehensive view of complex-democratic social studies in the 21st century. He argues that the reform of social studies education requires a corps of rigorou…s social science scholars who understand the historical origins of the social studies, the conceptual foundations of the field, its strengths and weaknesses, and modes of social theoretical analysis and takes students through numerous intellectual encounters in social studies and the contexts that inform it. Focusing on the importance of knowledge production and interpretation, Kincheloe calls for the education of social studies teachers as researchers who can critique and reconstruct curriculum as they expose the covert, ideological functions of contemporary educational reforms and top-down standards-driven social studies subject matter. In an era of depoliticization and induced political illiteracy, Kincheloe calls for a new form of social studies/social sciences scholarship to counter such alarming trends. 830 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - Print on Demand Titel. Neuware -This collection of essays tackles what comes of learning to read and write after literacy has been achieved. These essays take up notable gaps in all that has been said and written about literacy in the schools, moving beyond the idea…that learning to read and write is an end in itself. They are about the power that reading and writing has over the world. These essays deal with what the young are to make of the world while reading in a postmodern era and how they respond to the way new technologies can narrow the gap between school and work worlds. Others confront the authorities, whether of dictionaries that would dictate meaning or of cultures that would shape identities. They also pursue the personal side of Willinsky's own life in the language, tracking what has followed for him from this getting of literacy. The book is concerned, as a whole, with how we can become better students of literacy's impact on our lives. It teaches us to attend to the promises and challenges, as well as the pleasures, that come after having taken a basic hold of language's literate possibilities.Lang, Peter GmbH, Gontardstraße 11, 10178 Berlin 310 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - Print on Demand Titel. Neuware -This book offers a critique of two major themes of the modern reform movement in mathematics education: problem solving and the applications of mathematics to the «real world». In examining the educational fallacy inherent in the impul…se to move unflinchingly from «problem» to «problem solving», Stephen I. Brown demonstrates the potential of mathematical reflection to reveal aspects of self and society that have been suppressed in curriculum. He then argues that in seeking connections between mathematics and the «real world», we have tended to reduce their relationship to one of modeling. Furthermore, in constructing what is «real» in an overly concrete way, we have lost sight of the wonder of what is «real» in both mathematics and the world. Brown explores alternative text formats, including that of the novel and the Talmud, as vehicles to rejuvenate the educational potential of problems and of real world connections.Lang, Peter GmbH, Gontardstraße 11, 10178 Berlin 296 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Penal institutions and the detention ministry, due to their uniqueness, communicate a few positive messages to society. However, this study takes us further beyond the sterile complaints about penological systems, and dramatically…reveals the mesmerizing and often monstrous flaws in our criminal justice systems. Emerging detention staff squabbles, in penal institutions, can culminate to factual aberrations of felons' improper reformation and rehabilitation; and to incidences of enormous problems in the determination of the recidivistic rates of ex-convicts and parolees. A correction system has done quite well if it is able to turn major offenders into minor ones, and frequent offenders into infrequent ones. Comparison basically curtails any presumptive or 'theoretically' qualified conceptualization. Therefore, the comparative nature of this study, which acts as an epistemological 'operative' Leitdifferenz , remains a cultural preview for the existence of some scientific evidences for further discussions and researches in penological studies. 375 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Dem offensichtlich wieder aufkeimenden Rechtsextremismus in der Bundesrepublik Deutschland muß besondere Aufmerksamkeit gewidmet werden. Obwohl die wissenschaftliche Aufarbeitung des Holocaustgeschehens filigran, intensiv und bezüg…lich ihres Forschungsdesign äußerst detailliert durchgeführt wurde, ist oft eine sachliche Diskussion zwischen den Beteiligten nicht durchführbar und in der Regel mit einer unglaublichen Hilflosigkeit verbunden. Diesem gesellschaftlichen 'Allgemeinzustand' entgegenzuwirken, ist uneingeschränktes Ziel dieses Buches. Der historische Aspekt der Lebensgeschichte von Susi Herz liegt insbesondere in der Darstellung 'deutsch-jüdischer' Lebenswege. Im Mittelpunkt der Untersuchung stehen somit die Fragen nach dem Selbstverständnis der Porträtierten, nach ihrer philosophischen und religiösen sowie gesellschaftlich-kulturellen Position während der Zeit der nationalsozialistischen Gewaltherrschaft. Aus der Geschichte lernen heißt, Gesellschaft und Wissenschaft kritisch zu begleiten, ohne die historischen Wurzeln zu vernachlässigen. So verstanden hat gerade dieses Projekt sowohl eine emanzipatorische als auch erziehungspolitische Zielsetzung. 152 pp. Deutsch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Transnational corporations play a central role in China's economic transition. They are a crucial source for China to obtain advanced foreign know-how in order to modernise its economy. The increasing presence of transnational corp…orations has brought Chinese firms and employees exposure to foreign business practices and culture and, more precisely, to different types of foreign know-how. This book shows the impact and preconditions of know-how transfer through transnational corporations. Peter Werner presents empirical data gained from a case study in China's largest and most dynamic city - Shanghai. Using an inter-disciplinary approach, the author introduces and examines three stages of the know-how transfer process. While much of the research on international business und transnational corporations has dealt with know-how transfer issues, very few studies have recognised and empirically linked these three stages to a comprehensive analytical framework and placed it into the context of a transition economy. 264 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This is the first comprehensive study of the German colonial conquest of Tanzania between 1888 and 1904. Moving beyond the focus on German policy at the national level, the author highlights the local perspective on German colonial…ism as it was experienced by rural Tanzanians. In each region, the pre-colonial politics are analyzed to explain how the nature of German conquest and subsequent administration often reflected local political patterns and conflicts as much as it did German aims and objectives. The work examines the history and sociology of the German military in East Africa, largely composed of Africans, and how its organization reflected both German and African needs. The German military, Schutztruppe, is viewed as a rapidly evolving African institution that created new ethnic identities and social classes in its wake. 338 pp. Englisch.

Neuware -In the past few decades, contextualist conceptions of meaning and knowledge have gained ground in the humanities and social sciences. In literary studies the question of the consequences of contextualism for the practices and self-unde…rstanding of the discipline has become one of the most hotly contested topics. The present book addresses this issue, with the purpose of providing a corrective to these debates, which have predominantly relied on simplified notions of the text-context relationship. To this end, the author first presents a systematic account of the issues surrounding contextualism. Proceeding from that, a heterological model of interpretation is proposed which is based on a multi-level notion of context and allows for a heterology of epistemological foundations - or, «anchorages» - of meaning.Lang, Peter GmbH, Gontardstraße 11, 10178 Berlin 184 pp. Englisch.

Being a highly sexually active man all his life, he enjoyed writing sex into his plays and consid…ered it beautiful. It is therefore perhaps surprising that the role sexuality plays in his dramatic work has never been researched in detail.This thesis is the first profound study of how sexuality - either overt or covert - affects and dominates Tennessee Williams' dramatic work. Analyzing eight major plays in detail, this study explores how the characters' lived or suppressed (deviating) sexual inclinations and preferences affect their psychological state, their behavior and their relationships with the other characters in the plays. It further demonstrates how sexuality motivates each play in the first place, dominates its plot and finally how the characters' ability to deal with their sexuality leads to either a conciliatory or a fatal, sometimes even a lethal ending. The book points out parallels and differences between the plays as well as Williams' development of sexuality in his drama.Lang, Peter GmbH, Gontardstraße 11, 10178 Berlin 388 pp. Englisch.

Neuware -The book dedicates itself to the right of autonomy of the churches and religious communities in Europe and the USA. This right of self-determination is embedded in many different, very complex relationships between the state and religi…ous communities.

Numerous leading experts of the law on religion in Europe and the USA analyze the right of autonomy of the churches and religious communities. They thus offer profound information and many ideas to a better mutual understanding.Lang, Peter GmbH, Gontardstraße 11, 10178 Berlin 716 pp. Englisch.

Der soziale Frieden soll mit geringeren finanziellen Mitteln aufrecht erhalten werden. Die Politik antwortet nicht mehr nur… mit neoliberal inspirierter Deregulierung, sondern sucht zivilgesellschaftliche Elemente gegen die weitere Durchökonomisierung der Gesellschaft zu aktivieren. Wie realistisch ist der Versuch zur Zurückeroberung der Hegemonie im Globalisierungsdiskurs und zur Neustrukturierung des Ensembles relativ stabiler sozialer und staatlicher Formen Auf dem Hintergrund einer zivilgesellschaftlichen Interpretation wird der Kampf gegen zunehmende Gefährdungen des strukturlosen Gegenhalts dargestellt und bewertet.Technologische Entwicklungen, Veränderungen im industriellen Produktionsprozess und das stärkere Gewicht Europas erhöhen die Chance zur Durchsetzung zivilgesellschaftlicher Konzepte. 104 pp. Deutsch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Das Immermann-Jahrbuch stellt sich die Aufgabe, Leben und Werk von Carl Leberecht Immermann durch neue Untersuchungen zu erforschen und die Position des Autors in der Übergangszeit zwischen Romantik und Realismus literaturgeschicht…lich zu bestimmen. Insbesondere gilt das Interesse den bisher wenig erforschten Werkteilen, z. B. der Lyrik, dem dramatischen Werk, den autobiographischen Texten sowie den Briefen und Tagebüchern. Daß das Jahrbuch auch ein Forum für literatur- und kulturgeschichtliche Beiträge der Zeit zwischen 1815 und 1840 sein soll, folgt aus Immermanns bedeutender Stellung im Literaturbetrieb der Zeit sowie seinen verschiedenen Interessengebieten (Geschichte, Malerei, bildende Kunst, Rechtswissenschaft). 152 pp. Deutsch.
