Add to basketTaschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware -Current research on literacy often conceives space as a container within which social practice occurs. In sharp contrast, this edited collection argues that literary practice and social space are produced in relation to one another. Contributors to this collection consider how a spacial analysis provides entirely new information for the interpretation of literary practice. Traversing geography and literacy studies, drawing on Bakhtin, Deleuze and Guattari, Lefebvre, Soja, and a range of other theorists, contributors analyze space/literacy relations in diverse settings, including classrooms, prisons, streets, institutional programs, homes, and the popular media.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 232 pp. Englisch.

Add to basketTaschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware -This book is a cross-cultural, gendered study of both self and curriculum. Initiating a conversation between and among Michel Foucault, Confucius, and Julia Kristeva, it searches for a new (third) cultural and psychic space of transformation and creativity. Weaving together philosophy, psychoanalysis, and autobiography through lived experiences of curriculum, it calls for new configurations of subjectivity at the intersection of culture and gender, through the meeting between selfhood and the human psyche, in the dynamics of the semiotic and the symbolic, and through the interaction between the Western subject and the Chinese self. These multiple layers of inquiry provide unique perspectives for readers who are interested in curriculum theory, feminist analysis, philosophy of education, or East/West dialogue.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 222 pp. Englisch.

Add to basketTaschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware -Women experience and portray travel differently: Gender matters ¿ irreducibly and complexly. Building on recent scholarship in women¿s travel writing, these provocative essays not only affirm the impact of gender, but also cast women¿s journeys against coordinates such as race, class, culture, religion, economics, politics, and history. The book¿s scope is unique: Women travelers extend in time from Victorian memsahibs to contemporary «road girls», and topics range from Anna Leonowens¿s slanted portrayal of Siam ¿ later popularized in the movie, The King and I, to current feminist «descripting» of the male-road-buddy genre. The extensive array of writers examined includes Nancy Prince, Frances Trollope, Cameron Tuttle, Lady Mary Montagu, Catherine Oddie, Kate Karko, Frances Calderón de la Barca, Rosamond Lawrence, Zilpha Elaw, Alexandra David-Néel, Amelia Edwards, Erica Lopez, Paule Marshall, Bharati Mukherjee, and Marilynne Robinson.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 332 pp. Englisch.

Add to basketTaschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware -In Europe, as well as in other industrialized economies all over the world, employment relations have undergone profound transformations over the last decades. Large numbers of workers have been displaced, involuntarily employed part-time, or hired on temporary employment contracts. The increasing flexibility in the staffing of organizations is experienced, by many employees, as a threat to the continuation of their employment relationships. A growing body of research suggests that such job insecurity can be of fundamental importance from the occupational health perspective as well as the managerial, due to its effects on employees¿ work attitudes and well-being.This book addresses the nature of job insecurity and investigates its consequences for individuals, the organizations they work for, as well as their labor unions. It also examines whether factors associated with union membership help employees to cope with employment uncertainty. The book is based on a European project involving Belgium, Italy, the Netherlands, and Sweden.Both individuals and organizations alike are harmed by the increased insecurity that prevails in working life today. By identifying and explaining those factors which result in job insecurity, and examining how the experience affects individuals, organizations, and unions, the authors wish to expand the body of knowledge concerning job insecurity. Such knowledge can lead to a greater focus on this phenomenon within working life, and result in greater effort being put into understanding how preventative measures can be implemented in the future. 206 pp. Englisch.

Add to basketTaschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware -Freed from direct political constraints, many sociologists from former Communist countries have sought to maintain a clear distinction between research and politics through an attachment to objectivity, conceptual clarity and methodological rigour. Yet they have often sidestepped the critique of epistemological certainties which has become orthodoxy in much ¿Western¿ thinking, and which has implicated sociology in the very structures of power it describes. This collection of writings, based on the 2002 Critical Sociology Conference held at Tbilisi State University in Georgia, was produced by sociologists working as members of or visitors to post-Communist states. As such, it reflects the tension between the desire for scholarly distance and an acknowledgement that the construction of knowledge is always a political act and a product of hierarchical social relations. Whether considering the issue of political legitimacy in Kyrgyzstan, the political nature of discourse about Eastern Europe, or problems of institutionalisation in Georgia, the authors all seek to avoid the scepticism about the effects and ethics of sociology common in much Western social theory without falling back upon the positivist approaches apparent in much of the former Communist bloc and in important pockets of Western academia. 294 pp. Englisch.

Add to basketTaschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware -This volume comprises an edited selection of papers which were originally presented at the 9 International Conference of the History of Adult Education that was held in Leiden in September 2002. The theme of that conference and this volume addresses the key dynamics associated with the impact of globalisation upon both the historical and contemporary development of the organisation of adult learning. Following a general introduction to the key themes by the chief editor, the first section of the volume comprises a number of papers of a distinctly historical nature. The focus in this section is upon the development of organised adult learning as a major component of the European modernisation project from the Enlightenment period in the eighteenth century to the twentieth century. The second section examines contemporary developments and the emergence of new forms for the organisation of adult learning in the learning society. The emphasis here is upon those societal developments that contribute to the centrality of lifelong learning in current education and training policies. The third section comprises a number of country studies focused upon the dilemmas associated with the restructuring of national education and training policies. Issues of social inclusion and the risk of exclusion form the recurring theme of these country studies. 316 pp. Englisch.

Add to basketTaschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware -Nowadays, lay teachers predominate in Catholic schools throughout the English-speaking world. Yet, for over a century the Catholic teaching force was heavily influenced by the presence of the religious orders. The turning point was the mid 1960s and the opening up of the Catholic Church to the modern world as a result of the Second Vatican Council (1962-65). This opening up resulted in large numbers leaving the orders, a major drop off in new recruits and a consequent need to employ ever-greater numbers of lay teachers.This book is concerned with the period 1922-65. The focus is on the situation prevailing in the United States, England and Wales, Ireland, Australia and New Zealand from 1922 to 1965, whereby Catholic schools were used to maximise the possibility of recruiting new members to the religious orders and to minimise temptation to leave the religious life amongst those who had already joined. Four major practices are examined in this regard. First, Catholic schools deliberately set out to encourage pupils to join the ranks of the religious. Secondly, they replicated within the schools the authoritarianism of the religious life. Thirdly, they worked continuously to marginalize lay teachers from decision-making. Finally, they were ever vigilant in their opposition to co-education and sex education.The contribution of the religious orders to Catholic education is recognised in the final section of the book. However, consideration is also given to the darker side of what sometimes took place, namely, the child abuse, both physical and sexual, in which members of various religious teaching orders engaged. Finally, the book closes with a brief consideration of changes in Catholic education with the demise in the presence of the religious orders in the schools. In particular, it focuses on the new role of the lay teachers and the changes in the Church¿s attitude towards them. 228 pp. Englisch.

The common element running through them all is the analysis of samples of tourist literature and their translations, from a pragmatic point of view. The languages concerned are mainly English and Spanish, but examples of German and French texts are also included. The theoretical approaches are multifaceted. Relevance theory, systemic-functional linguistics and discourse analysis are some of the theoretical standpoints taken as a background. The book covers phenomena as varied as translation quality assessment, audience design and perlocutionary effects, dealing also with more specific features like thematic structure, inference and propositional meaning, discourse markers and grammatical metaphor in order to provide a wide range of analyses for the specialised reader.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 248 pp. Englisch.

Add to basketTaschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware -This book is about patterns of development in the history of culture. Bringing together three areas of research: semiotics, cultural history, and evolutionary psychology, it attempts to bridge the gap that still separates the study of culture from the cognitive sciences.The multidisciplinary approach chosen by the contributors derives its impetus from the deep conviction that in order to understand the logic of cultural development, one must take the building blocks of culture, that is, signs and language, as a starting point for research.Central issues related to patterns of cultural evolution are dealt with in contributions on the development of mind and culture, the history of the media, the diversity of sign systems, culture and code, and the dynamics of semiosis. Theoretically oriented contributions alternate with in-depth case studies on such diverging topics as the evolution of language and art in prehistory, ritual as the fountainhead of indirect communication, developments in renaissance painting, the evolution of classification systems in chemistry, changing attitudes toward animal consciousness, and developments in computer technology. 342 pp. Englisch.

Add to basketTaschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware -This study examines how St. Augustine uses the motif Christus Sacerdos to synthesize the entire mystery of Christ, to define Christian identity, and to oppose counter-identities and doctrines, especially those symbolized by pagan priesthoods. The bishop of Hippo continually joins these three elements ¿ Christology, Christian identity, and polemic ¿ so that the doctrine of Christ is always related to its implications for life «on the ground». Augustine shows how the doctrine of Christ entails an identity and an ideal for Christians, defining who they are and what they are to become. He reinforces his teaching about Christ and the Christian with polemic against opposing doctrines, demonstrating the truth of the Christian religion in opposition to pagan cult, and portraying Christian identity in contrast to pagan counter-identity. The study is notable for its attention to how Augustine¿s Christology functions in his broader thought, especially his pastoral care. 496 pp. Englisch.

Les ¿uvres n¿ont jamais manqué qui plaisaient à tous, petits et grands, doctes et ignorants. Ce livre tend à réhabiliter dans les lettres du XVII siècle, ordinairement vues à travers la splendeur des Cours et des salons, les foules anonymes qui applaudirent Shakespeare, Ben Jonson et Molière. En substance, il s¿agit de l¿écart qui se creusa entre goût populaire et culture des élites sous l¿impulsion d¿un certain humanisme et de la montée, en France, en Angleterre et aux Pays-Bas, du capitalisme et de la bourgeoisie urbaine. À quoi se joignit la pression de l¿absolutisme, Richelieu appliquant à la culture les recettes de sa politique centralisatrice et autocratique. Lors de la Querelle du Cid, il encouragea ainsi la formation de la tragédie classique, genre éminemment savant dont la vogue allait bientôt gagner Londres et Amsterdam. Tout en discréditant quelques idées reçues, ces pages voient défiler, sous un jour parfois insolite, Corneille, Pascal et Racine, Milton et Vondel, Hamlet, George Dandin et la belle Amaryllis. 174 pp. Französisch.

Conjuguant authenticité et ouverture, il expose les voies d¿un humanisme radical qui entre en résonance aussi bien avec les confessions religieuses qüavec une laïcité ouverte à la dimension spirituelle de l¿homme.À l¿orée du XXI siècle, l¿idéal de la fraternité redevient ce qüil n¿aurait jamais dû cesser d¿être: une utopie réalisable parce qüelle apparaît plus indispensable et désirable que jamais.

Nach dem Wortlaut dieses Verbotes liegt eine (vollendete) Steuerverkürzung auch dann vor, «(.) wenn die Steuer, auf die sich die Tat bezieht, aus anderen Gründen hätte ermäßigt oder der Steuervorteil aus anderen Gründen hätte beansprucht werden können». Das kann im Extremfall zu dem Effekt führen, daß jemand wegen vollendeter und nicht nur versuchter Steuerhinterziehung bestraft wird, obwohl kein Steuerschaden eingetreten ist. Es wird dargestellt, unter welchen Bedingungen die BGH-Rechtsprechung bestimmte steuerermäßigende Gründe nicht als andere Gründe behandelt. Ferner geht die Arbeit auf den Einfluß des Verbotes hinsichtlich Steuerhinterziehungsvorsatz und Strafzumessung ein. Zuletzt werden noch die Auswirkungen des Kompensationsverbotes auf die Steuerhinterziehung in ihrer Grundstruktur aufgezeigt.

In dieser Arbeit steht das lexikalisierte Wissen über Kindheit im Zentrum. Es wird nach dem Kindheitsbild in Enzyklopädien im Kontext der Herausbildung der modernen Kindheit im 18. Jahrhundert gefragt. Anhand kindheitsrelevanter Stichwörter in vier zeitgenössischen Enzyklopädien (dem Allgemeinen Lexicon von Jablonski, 1721; dem Universal-Lexicon von Zedler, 1731-1754; der Oeconomisch-technologischen Encyklopädie von Krünitz, 1774-1858; der Deutschen Encyclopädie, 1778-1804) werden die Vorstellungen von Kindheit herausgearbeitet und verglichen.

Jahrhundert populären Medium, zum andern gibt sie einen Einblick in die Begriffsgeschichte des Wortes Kindheit. 384 pp. Deutsch.

They have explored their own lives from the selective position of their own memories and have traced the ways in which their assumptions - which they use to mediate and interpret the world around them - have been constituted by public ideological forces. They have collaborated with others in building alternative pedagogies and support systems, enabling them to teach, and at the same time, reflect on the assumptions behind and the effects of their teaching. The result is the work collected here. 290 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Aristotle's Virtues focuses on Aristotle's philosophical method and his conceptions of form and substance as a way to explicate the main elements of his ethical and political theorizing. This book shows how those highly general features of Aristotle's thought have an important bearing on his conception of the best kind of life for a human being and the kind of political community needed to enable and encourage that kind of life. While explicating fundamental aspects of Aristotle's philosophy of nature, metaphysics, and theory of knowledge, the discussion of them leads to a culminating account of the virtues of both individual and political life. 212 pp. Englisch.

Caribbean Theology scrutinizes the gradual but crucial development of theology within the context of the Caribbean since 1971. It examines the charge that the gradualness of the process is due to the insidiousness of missionary theology from which Caribbean theology seeks disengagement. The book further assesses the viability of this indigenization by drawing its many seminal and abridged offerings for interpretation and serious reflection into a systematic whole. 234 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The Integrated News Spectacle examines the rational organization of control of popular news forms. It uses spectacular media events - such as the mourning of Princess Diana, the Monica Lewinsky presidential scandal, and the Gulf wars of 1991 and 2003 - as entry points into a discussion of the broader context surrounding an integrated system of commodity production, distribution and exchange. James R. Compton critiques the generally accepted notion of tabloidization associated with media spectacles, and situates these dramatic narratives within a broad historical context. Drawing on the work of Guy Debord, David Harvey, and Pierre Bourdieu, this book explains how the power relationships associated with media events can best be comprehended by revealing the practical application of the logic of spectacle - a logic characterized by the transposable circulation and promotion of cultural commodities. 246 pp. Englisch.

Informed either by personal commitment to Quakerism, or by individual work within Quaker institutions, the contributors offer perspectives that are important for teachers, parents, and readers generally interested in the classroom experience as a process of growth and exploration. Minding the Light provides an inspiring outline of «friendly pedagogy», which deeply respects individual uniqueness while awakening learners to their active involvements with larger communities. 212 pp. Englisch.
