“This compact book argues that ideas about accountability and legitimation – drawn from work on environmental governance – can open up new analytical perspectives on what is holding back effective energy system transformation. With bite-size chapters and illustrative cases that draw on the work of five expert witnesses, this is a novel intervention into debates over the politics of energy transition.”-Professor Gavin Bridge, Durham University, UK“The book theorizes and advances the research frontier on legitimation practices and accountability with a carefully crafted analysis bridging scholarly fields of environmental governance, political economy, energy research and democratic theory. It is a must-read for all students and scholars interested in shaping more legitimate, democratic and accountable energy transition from the local to global context.”-Professor Karin Bäckstrand, Stockholm University, SwedenThis open access book reframes sustainable energy transitions as being a matter of resolving accountability crises. It demonstrates how the empirical study of several practices of legitimation can analytically deconstruct energy transitions, and presents a typology of these practices to help determine whether energy transitions contribute to sustainability.The real-world challenge of climate change requires sustainable energy transitions. This presents a crisis of accountability legitimated through situated practices in a wide range of cases including: solar energy transitions in Portugal, urban energy transitions in Germany, forestland conflicts in Indonesia, urban carbon emission targets in Norway, transport electrification in the Nordic region, and biodiversity conservation and energy extraction in the USA. By synthesising these cases, chapters identify various dimensions wherein practices of legitimation construct specific accountability relations. This book deftly illustrates the value of an analytical approach focused on accountable governance to enable sustainable energy transitions. It will be of great use to both academics and practitioners working in the field of energy transitions.Siddharth Sareen is a postdoctoral researcher at the Centre for Climate and Energy Transformation at the University of Bergen, Norway.

Music; Stage presentations; History of AmsterdamIn de zeventiende eeuw ging vrijwel iedere toneelvoorstelling gepaard met muziek. Er werd niet alleen gemusiceerd tussen de bedrijven, maar ook in het toneelstuk zelf. Muziek diende als achtergrond en versiering en was functioneel geïntegreerd in de handeling van het drama. Uit de rekeningen van de Amsterdamse Schouwburg blijkt dat men professionele musici in dienst had; daarnaast werd er gezongen en gedanst door de acteurs. In navolging van buitenlandse toneelmuziekstudies wordt in dit boek voor het eerst uitvoerig aandacht besteed aan de zeventiende-eeuwse theatermuziek in de Nederlanden. Centraal staat de toneeldichter Jan Harmensz Krul, die de muziek op vakkundige manier in zijn toneelstukken verweefde en die in 1634 de Amsterdamse Musyck-kamer oprichtte - een stichting die geheel gewijd was aan het samengaan van poëzie en muziek op het toneel. Aan de hand van vijf karakteristieke muzikale scènes uit zijn werk (de wachterscène, gevangenisscène, serenade, offerscène en slaapscène) wordt een beeld geschetst van de toenmalige Amsterdamse toneelmuziekpraktijk. Zulke muzikale scènes waren ook geliefd bij andere toneeldichters, in binnen- en buitenland. Zij hadden voor het publiek een signaalfunctie: het waren direct herkenbare situaties, ijkpunten in het drama, die standaard met muziek werden geassocieerd. Dichters varieerden hierop naar hartelust. Voor toneelschrijver en toeschouwer waren die stereotiepe muzikale scènes wat muziek was voor de personages in de toneelstukken: een effectief middel om te manipuleren - een perfecte verleiding, van oog, oor en hart.

Clapperton Mavhunga's collection of essays about science, technology, and innovation (STI) from an African perspective opens with the idea, "Things do not (always) mean the same from everywhere; when we insist that only ‘our’ meaning is the meaning, we silence other people’s meanings." Mavhunga and his contributors argue that our contemporary definitions of STI are those of countries and cultures that have acquired their dominance of others through global empires, and as a counter to that, Mavhunga seeks to put the concepts of STI into question, exploring what the technological, scientific, and innovative might mean from Africa in lieu of outside introductions or influences. We strongly feel that this book is suited to the Knowledge Unlatched program because of the difficulty of reaching markets and readers in Africa with print books. We feel unlatching would go a long way toward helping Mavhunga reach an important audience for this work that we have been previously unable to reach.

Definiteness has been a central topic in theoretical semantics since its modern foundation. However, despite its significance, there has been surprisingly scarce research on its cross-linguistic expression. With the purpose of contributing to filling this gap, the present volume gathers thirteen studies exploiting insights from formal semantics and syntax, typological and language specific studies, and, crucially, semantic fieldwork and cross-linguistic semantics, in order to address the expression and interpretation of definiteness in a diverse group of languages, most of them understudied.This book is made open access as part of the Knowledge Unlatched Language Science Press 2018 - 2020

Auf die Französische Revolution folgte eine Epoche der »Restauration«: Die europäische Politik Anfang des 19. Jahrhunderts wollte die vorrevolutionäre Ordnung des Ancien Régime wiederherstellen. Der Autodidakt Karl Ludwig von Haller verfasste die Schrift »Restauration der Staatswissenschaft«, deren unverhohlener wie wohlüberlegter Kampfgeist dem Leser von der ersten Seite an entgegenschlägt. Alexander Kruska zeigt, inwiefern von Hallers aufsehenerregender erster Band der Restaurationsschrift als eine politiktheoretisch motivierte, systematische Polemik zu verstehen ist. Im Bestreben, dem Fragen nach legitimer Herrschaft ein Ende zu bereiten, setzt von Haller dem aufklärerischen Staatsdenken eine »bessere Doktrin« entgegen: Anstatt vernunftbegründeter Staatlichkeit proklamiert er eine natürliche Ordnung bloßer Machtverhältnisse. Zu diesem Zweck gilt es, gegen das politische Denken selbst vorzugehen.This book is made open access as part of the Knowledge Unlatched transcript Open Library Politikwissenschaft 2019

That is — at least in part — why the expansion plans of one California-born plant-based QSR — Plant Power Fast Food — may just bear fruit. After all, there is a pretty big niche to fill in many markets for a true fast food concept that specializes in plant-based fare.

Die "Europafähigkeit" der Türkei wird in der europäischen und deutschen Öffentlichkeit seit geraumer Zeit kontrovers diskutiert. Viele Europäer kritisieren Menschenrechtsverstöße, die unzureichende Demokratisierung und befürchten eine Islamisierung Europas. Die Türkei wiederum kann auf Reformen verweisen und ihre geostrategische Bedeutung in der Beitrittsdebatte geltend machen. Ist die Türkei "europareif"? Wie ist es um das Verhältnis zwischen der Türkei und der Europäischen Union bestellt? Gehört die Türkei zu einem vereinten Europa? Die in diesem Band versammelten Beiträge sind Wortmeldungen in einer leidenschaftlich geführten Debatte, die auch Antworten auf die Frage nach einer europäischen Identität sucht. Mit Beiträgen u.a. von Claus Leggewie, Herfried Münkler, Faruk Sen und Hans-Ulrich Wehler.

The curators, on the occasion of the World Day of Disability, have gathered together contributions, reflections, projects and workshops presented to offer an interdisciplinary reflection on the theme of disability and inclusion, beginning with "Unimc for Inclusion", a week rich in meetings on the theme of inclusion held at the University of Macerata. The authoritative contributions of scholars from diverse disciplinary fields, allow readers to retrace the theme of inclusion from different theoretical research perspectives, reconstructing an interesting corollary of reflections and operational paths ranging from special pedagogy, general pedagogy, psychology, social robotics, virtual reality, economics, law, literature, philosophy, art, etc. It is due of this approach that the text is particularly pertinent to teachers, educators and pedagogues in active service and in training, not least because of the range of workshop proposals and transferable experiences in school contexts and in day and residential centres.
