Gegenstücke

CC BY-NC-ND

„Gegenstücke“ examines science communication as a cultural, social, and epistemic practice that is shaped by its historical contexts as well as its material and medial conditions. It is focusing mainly on two popular science magazines, Bild der Wissenschaft and Scientific American, established in West Germany in 1964, and in New York in 1845 respectively. Both magazines and their relationship are part of a history of imitation and nationalization and thus an extremely complex example for processes of producing popular knowledge.„Gegenstücke“ erzählt eine Geschichte populärer Wissenskommunikation im transatlantischen Vergleich von der Nachkriegszeit bis in die 1980er Jahre. Das Buch konzentriert sich auf zwei herausragende Beispiele des Genres – die Zeitschrift Bild der Wissenschaft sowie ihr Vorbild Scientific American. Anhand einer mikroskopischen und dichten Beschreibung von Bildern, Texten, Inhalten, Akteuren und Netzwerken, die beide Zeitschriften charakterisierten und hervorbrachten, zeigt das Buch, dass populäre Wissenskommunikation von ihren nationalpolitischen, mentalitätsgeschichtlichen, sozialen, werbewirtschaftlichen, bildhistorischen und kollektivbiografischen Kontexten gesättigt ist und sie zu je eigenen Stilen der Wissenskommunikation verarbeitet.

Changing Space, Changing City

CC BY-NC-ND

As the dynamo of South Africa’s economy, Johannesburg commands a central position in the nation’s imagination, and scholars throughout the world monitor the city as an exemplar of urbanity in the global South. This richly illustrated study offers detailed empirical analyses of changes in the city’s physical space, as well as a host of chapters on the character of specific neighbourhoods and the social identities being forged within them. Informing all of these is a consideration of underlying economic, social and political processes shaping the wider Gauteng region. A mix of respected academics, practising urban planners and experienced policymakers offer compelling overviews of the rapid and complex spatial developments that have taken place in Johannesburg since the end of apartheid, along with tantalising glimpses into life on the streets and behind the high walls of this diverse city. The book has three sections. Section A provides an overview of macro spatial trends and the policies that have infl uenced them. Section B explores the shaping of the city at district and suburban level, revealing the peculiarity of processes in different areas. This analysis elucidates thelarger trends, while identifying shifts that are not easily detected at the macro level. Section C is an assembly of chapters and short vignettes that focus on the interweaving of place and identity at a micro level.
With empirical data supported by new data sets including the 2011 Census, the city’s Development Planning and Urban Management Department’s information system, and Gauteng City-Region Observatory’s substantial archive, the book is an essential reference for planning practitioners, urban geographers, sociologists, and social anthropologists, among others.

Recolha poética

CC BY-NC-ND

Antologia de 12 livros (8 de poesia, 3 de poesia e prosa e um inédito). Otraço mais definidor da escrita de Arnaut, segundo Maria Lúcia Lepecki,“é o sentimento cósmico, sentimento de uma totalidade última eabrangente (…), onde tudo se liga por íntimas conexões, como se oprincípio primeiro da vida (e da morte) fosse, e efectivamente é, o dosvasos comunicantes (…). Esta é uma poesia tão lúcida quanto emocionada,que brota do mais fundo do ser, do lugar onde cada pessoa aprende a serela mesma para poder ser no outro e com o outro”. Para Delfim Leão,vislumbra-se “sempre, em pano de fundo, a eterna sedução de quemencontra na poesia uma forma ideal de criação artística. O papelfecundante do logos, ordenador do caos estéril, aparece muitas vezescombinado com o telurismo orgânico e estrutural do autor”. Para JoséCarlos Seabra Pereira, “a dicção de António Arnaut (…) tendependularmente para a dominante moderna da forma breve, contida,inovadora e trabalhada, num quadro global de sístole e diástole entrependor de derrame eloquente e de condensação aforismática”. Com 30títulos publicados (poesia, ficção e ensaio), A. Arnaut assume-se comoescritor civicamente comprometido, que considera a literatura como “aexpressão da sua própria humanidade e da Humanidade toda”.

Im Namen der Emanzipation

CC BY-NC-ND

Was macht das Bild von Muslim_innen als rückständige und bedrohliche Andere so anschlussfähig? Welche gesellschaftlichen Widersprüche und Konflikte werden in antimuslimischen Diskursen verarbeitet? Benjamin Opratko untersucht das scheinbare Paradox eines Rassismus, der im Namen der Emanzipation artikuliert wird. Seine hegemonietheoretische Analyse zeigt: Der antimuslimische Rassismus übersetzt die Unsicherheit darüber, ob die Emanzipationskämpfe nach 1968 tatsächlich gewonnen wurden, in die Vorstellung, dass Muslim_innen das Errungene bedrohen. In diesem Mythos repräsentieren muslimische Andere eine überwunden geglaubte Vergangenheit. Ihre Abwertung im Namen der Emanzipation entpuppt sich als historizistischer Rassismus.This book is made open access as part of the Knowledge Unlatched transcript Open Library Politikwissenschaft 2019

Under Western Eyes

Joseph Conrad

PD-US

Under Western Eyes is a novel by Joseph Conrad. The novel takes place in St. Petersburg, Russia and Geneva, Switzerland and is viewed as Conrad's response to the themes explored in Crime and Punishment; Conrad being reputed to have detested Dostoevsky. It is also, some say, Conrad's response to his own early life; his father was a famous revolutionary imprisoned by the Russians, but, instead of following in his father's footsteps, at the age of sixteen Conrad left his native land forever. Indeed, while writing Under Western Eyes, Conrad suffered a weeks-long breakdown during which he conversed with the novel's characters in Polish.This novel is considered to be one of Conrad's major works and is close in subject matter to The Secret Agent. It is full of cynicism and conflict about the historical failures of revolutionary movements and ideals. Conrad remarks in this book, as well as others, on the irrationality of life, the opacity of character, and the unfairness with which suffering is inflicted upon the innocent and poor and the careless disregard for fellow life with whom we share existence.
