Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Hate is being reinvented. Over the last two decades, online platforms have been used to repackage racist, sexist and xenophobic ideologies into new sociotechnical forms. Digital hate is ancient but novel, deploying the Internet to boost its allure and broaden its appeal. To understand the logic of hate, Luke Munn investigates four objects: 8chan, the cesspool of the Internet, QAnon, the popular meta-conspiracy, Parler, a social media site, and Gab, the »platform for the people.« Drawing together powerful human stories with insights from media studies, psychology, political science, and race and cultural studies, he portrays how digital hate infiltrates hearts and minds.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Why did »equality« become prominent in European societies based on hierarchy during the Enlightenment What does »equality« imply for societies, politics, or legal systems The contributors to this volume draw on various historical case studies, from visionary practices in revolutionary France and the collection of data on the poor in 19th-century Germany, to claims raised under the minority regime of the League of Nations and the anti-discrimination politics of the UN and India. The dynamics of universalizing equality are contrasted with a concept asserting that equality must be limited to and by order. The contributions thus explore concepts of equality from the perspectives of history and law and show that practices of comparing were essential when it came to imagining others as equal, fighting discrimination, or scandalizing social inequalities.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - So far, human-machine encounters have primarily been tested and monitored in controlled laboratory settings. However, the first robots that are used in care, service and education are already being sold commercially. The contributors grapple with methodological challenges in investigating communicative AI systems in (inter-)action. They investigate how these studies can be composed and what kinds of insights such research can provide. With this, the anthology brings together contributions from a growing community of researchers who are committed to exploring communicative AI »in (inter-)action« by using and adapting qualitative (and mostly ethnographic) methods.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Hasta alrededor de 1900, el concepto de 'afro' no existía en la historia de las esclavitudes. Las denominaciones de origen africano servían para menospreciar a los esclavos en la esclavitud atlántica. Se temía una 'africanización' de la sociedad en las Américas. Ningún esclavo o ex esclavo se hubiera descrito a sí mismo como 'afro'. Fernando Ortiz desarrolló el concepto en su libro Hampa-afrocubana como seguidor de Cesare Lombroso (1906). Estaba dirigido contra los negros. Desde 1960, los conceptos 'afro' ganaron un significado muy positivo entre intelectuales. La masa de la población negra y de color en las Américas, especialmente en las áreas de habla hispana y portuguesa, seguirá usando la palabra y el término 'negro'.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - La eugenesia esconde una zona gris que resulta conveniente para el relato de progreso, bienestar e integración que mueve al Estado nación de tradición liberal. Existe una continuidad temporal e histórica expresada en la plasticidad de una eugenesia que se despliega hasta nuestros días; diversificada en nuevos campos del saber y espacios del espectro social, propone un compromiso por el futuro de la humanidad a partir de nuevas disposiciones, imaginarios y expectativas. En Resignificar la vida. Críticas a las nuevas eugenesias en América Latina, Marcelo Sánchez Delgado reflexiona acerca de las formas adquiridas por la eugenesia en los campos científicos contemporáneos y en el discurso-práctica del poder sobre los actuales problemas sociales latinoamericanos. Su trabajo es un debate en torno de la continuidad eugenésica y la prolongación de estos discursos en el ámbito público. El autor discute la reactualización del paradigma eugénico observando su relación histórica; es decir, los contactos entre el pasado, el presente y la imaginación de un futuro desde los temas que surgen al hablar de las crisis de América Latina, como la criminalidad, las migraciones, el racismo, la salud mental, los roles de género, la falta de atención a la niñez y la desigualdad, entre otros.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The richness of social and cultural theory in the humanities offers countless opportunities for using theory-informed concepts in data-based analysis workflows. The contributors to this volume thus encourage further research utilizing out-of-the-box models and approaches to space and place in the field of Digital Humanities. The collection follows the two complementary goals of providing promising conceptualisations of space and place for a broad audience from Digital Humanities, and of presenting current work in Digital Humanities using different conceptualisations of space and place or offering innovative methods for their analysis.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Digital Humanities is a transformational endeavor that not only changes the perception, storage, and interpretation of information but also of research processes and questions. It also prompts new ways of interdisciplinary communication between humanities scholars and computer scientists.This volume offers a unique perspective on digital methods for and in the humanities. It comprises case studies from various fields to illustrate the challenge of matching existing textual research practices and digital tools. Problems and solutions with and for training tools as well as the adjustment of research practices are presented and discussed with an interdisciplinary focus.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The digital transformation is accompanied by two simultaneous processes: digital humanities challenging the humanities, their theories, methodologies and disciplinary identities, and pushing computer science to get involved in new fields. But how can qualitative and quantitative methods be usefully combined in one research project What are the theoretical and methodological principles across all disciplinary digital approaches This volume focusses on driving innovation and conceptualising the humanities in the 21st century. Building on the results of 10 research projects, it serves as a useful tool for designing cutting-edge research that goes beyond conventional strategies.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Across the globe, a growing number of social movements, such as demonstrations in support of equal civil status or reproductive freedom and against sexualized violence, show that women's and gender rights are highly contested. Against the backdrop of a long history of unequal rights implementation, the contributors to this volume deal with the questions of why and in which ways gender equality has become contested in various political contexts. Local case studies examine the relevant structural, institutional, and socio-cultural causes of the global challenges to equality. This book follows an interdisciplinary approach and unites scholars from law, linguistics, cultural studies, history, social sciences, and gender studies in diverse contexts.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Luhmann's theory is fascinating and complex. It offers incomparably enlightening insights, references and research opportunities, but reveals its utility only after a quite high competence threshold. Using the reticular form of the glossary, this book makes the theory accessible while maintaining its complexity. Without being obstructed by knowledge gaps or by references to concepts presented elsewhere, readers inside and outside sociology get the required support to explore sociological systems theory and to engage with it. Luhmann himself, in his introduction, praises the form of the glossary to cope with the challenges of the theoretical description of our highly complex society.

Softcover. Zustand: Wie neu. gepflegter, sauberer zustand. ungelesen. Die Reflexion des Monumentalen ist ein zentrales Thema der Architektur wie auch der Kunst nach 1945. Einerseits zeugen hiervon die Versuche, die moderne Architektur mittels eines neuen Begriffsverständnisses zu erneuern. Andererseits ist die Kunst spätestens seit den 1960er Jahren von dem Bestreben geprägt, das monumentale Selbstverständnis der Architektur zu kommentieren oder zu dekonstruieren.Der Band zeigt, wie Architektur und Kunst so in einen komplexen Dialog treten, der sich auf unterschiedlichen Ebenen beobachten lässt: von der unmittelbaren Konfrontation im urbanen Raum über die Konzeption utopischer Orte und Antimonumente bis hin zur kritischen Kommentierung zerstörter oder rekonstruierter Bauwerke und Denkmäler. 320 pp. Deutsch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Digital archives are transforming the Humanities and the Sciences. Digitized collections of newspapers and books have pushed scholars to develop new, data-rich methods. Born-digital archives are now better preserved and managed thanks to the development of open-access and commercial software. Digital Humanities have moved from the fringe to the center of academia. Yet, the path from the appraisal of records to their analysis is far from smooth. This book explores crossovers between various disciplines to improve the discoverability, accessibility, and use of born-digital archives and other cultural assets.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Comparisons affect various ways of perceiving and interpreting the world, characterized by distinct legitimization strategies and knowledge application routines by different actors. The contributors to this volume explore the link between change and practices of comparing, focusing on order, representation, and models. They delve into how comparing influences knowledge production, but also focus on persisting orders of knowledge. This collection centers on the role of models and modeling in relation to practices of comparing, thus highlighting the representational and operational force of comparing as a way to form and organize reality.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Conflicts and struggles like urbanization processes and the productive use of water have impacted the relationship of Latin American and Caribbean societies with water for centuries. This volume of the Handbook »The Anthropocene as Multiple Crisis« focuses on water in the main macro-regions of Latin America from the colonial regime to the contemporary era of the Anthropocene. The contributions enrich contemporary debates surrounding the genealogy of the Anthropocene in Latin America with critical perspectives from the social sciences and the humanities.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Biodiversity should not be understood in biological terms only and as a thing apart from society, but rather as biocultural diversity present in the social world and in various cultures. Such a perspective might allow to relieve social conflicts as well as abuses of power, and slow the appropriation of the biosphere. This volume of the Handbook »The Anthropocene as Multiple Crisis« focuses on biodiversity in the main macro-regions of Latin America from the colonial regime to the contemporary era of the Anthropocene. The contributions enrich contemporary debates surrounding the genealogy of the Anthropocene in Latin America with critical perspectives from the social sciences and the humanities.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - How has faith developed in the US and German societies across the last decades In a three-wave longitudinal investigation of faith development, this study presents the changes of worldview and meaning-making that people associate with their religious, spiritual, agnostic and atheist identifications. For almost two decades, research teams in Chattanooga (USA) and Bielefeld (Germany) have invited and re-invited hundreds of people to participate in a personal interview and to answer an extensive questionnaire in order to better understand the reasons and the consequences of their continuity or discontinuity in religious, spiritual, or non-theistic faith.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Historical research can be enhanced by methods and resources from various disciplines, ranging from psychology to computer linguistics. With a creative and innovative perspective on »things we think we know«, Milan van Lange presents a computer-assisted historical investigation into the role of emotions in dealing with consequences of World War II in the Netherlands. By »emotion mining« digitised sources, van Lange shows where emotions were present and how they were expressed and discussed in the political engagement with people who experienced long-term effects of the war, such as former collaborators and war criminals, the resistance, and war victims.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Religious studies have long discussed the comparative notion of »holy« beyond religious, cultural, and linguistic boundaries. In this book, Thomas Jurczyk conducts a diachronic comparison of the meaning and application of two notions and their related word fields that are commonly associated with a broader comparative notion of holy, namely the Ancient Armenian term »surb« and its related words and the English word field associated with »holy«. To compare these two semantic fields, his methodological approach operates on the principle of distributional semantics and applies, among others, tools and methods from the field of corpus linguistics.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Faith Development Interviews offer great insight into people's ways of (non-)religious meaning-making, and of looking at their life and relationships. Ramona Bullik portrays nine longitudinal case studies in a mixed-methods design with narrative analysis granting insight into the developments and stabilities in the interviews. The focus on religious married couples allows to carve out the role of faith and the changing view on the spouse and the joint life. The portraits of three non-religious women show how meaning is made outside the frame of organized religion. Individual survey data are put into relation with a larger sample, answering the claim for idiothetic research.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Socio-ecological conflicts about land use in Latin America are complex: they involve various actors and flare up due to the dynamics of colonization, spatial appropriation, and the commodification of land. This volume of the Handbook »The Anthropocene as Multiple Crisis« focuses on land use in the main macro-regions of Latin America from the colonial regime to the contemporary era of the Anthropocene. The contributions touch upon numerous aspects, from the transformations of material to the social practices, their political and legal regulations as well as the imaginaries of virgin territories. Consequently, far from limiting themselves to a static cartography of land use, the contributors investigate the appropriations of borders and historic transformations in land use.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Throughout the history of the Americas, sentiments toward the environment have been problematized and aestheticized through visual representations in various formats. In this volume of the Handbook »The Anthropocene as Multiple Crisis«, sixty entries examine the crises of mining, energy, land use, biodiversity, water, and climate change in the major macro-regions of Latin America from the colonial period to the contemporary era of the Anthropocene, featuring iconic images from this context.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Practices of comparing shape how we perceive, organize, and change the world. Supposedly innocent, practices of comparing play a decisive role in forming categories, boundaries, and hierarchies; but they can also give an impetus to question and change such structures. Like almost no other human practice, comparing pervades all social, political, economic, and cultural spheres. This volume outlines the program of a new research agenda that places comparative practices at the center of an interdisciplinary exploration. Its contributions combine case studies with overarching systematic considerations. They show what insights can be gained and which further questions arise when one makes a seemingly trivial practice - comparing - the subject of in-depth research.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - What distinguishes an adventure novel from a historical novel Can the same text belong to several genres More to one than to another Have some existing genres been overlooked To answer these and similar questions, José Calvo Tello combines methods from Linguistics (lexicography), Literary Studies (genre theory), and Computer Science (machine learning, natural language processing). Located in the interdisciplinary field of Digital Humanities, this study analyzes a newly developed corpus of 358 Spanish novels of the silver age (1880-1939), which includes authors like Baroja, Pardo Bazán, or Valle-Inclán. Calvo Tello's key result is a graph-based model of literary genre that reconciles recent theoretical approaches.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Wie lässt sich der Begriff des Heiligen kulturwissenschaftlich fassen Die Beiträger\*innen des Bandes nähern sich ihm nicht, indem sie ihn substantialistisch festschreiben, sondern definieren ihn strukturell: Er bewegt sich im Spannungsfeld zwischen 'Unverfügbarkeit' und 'Verfügbarkeit', zwischen Formen von Ausschließung einerseits und Einschließung andererseits. Dieser systematisch erschlossene Begriff bildet eine verbindliche Klammer und ist zugleich, ohne beliebig zu werden, flexibel genug, um eine Vielzahl von Disziplinen miteinander ins Gespräch zu bringen und auf unterschiedlichste Felder kulturwissenschaftlicher Forschung bezogen werden zu können.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Was passiert vor dem Blick auf ein Bild Diese Frage lenkt die Aufmerksamkeit auf Voraussetzungen des Bildersehens, die in der Regel kaum reflektiert werden. Doch ist das Betrachten von Bildern stets mit Praktiken verflochten, die die Wahrnehmung in spezifischer Weise konstituieren, zurichten und mitunter sogar manipulieren. Die mit diesen Zurichtungen verbundenen Praktiken wurden bisher in der Forschung kaum eingehender beleuchtet. Die Beiträger\*innen des Bandes untersuchen aus praxistheoretischer, phänomenologischer, bild- und kunsthistorischer sowie wahrnehmungspsychologischer Perspektive historische und zeitgenössische Praktiken, die dem Blick auf ein Bild vorausgehen.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Worin liegen die ästhetischen Eigenlogiken der Gattung des Genrebildes, also Darstellungen von Alltagsszenen mit anonymen und meist typisierten Figuren Seit dem 16. Jahrhundert wurde diese Gattung in der Malerei populär. Sie erlangte ihr künstlerisches Profil in einem Prozess des Dialogs mit und der Abgrenzung von der Reproduktionsgraphik, der Historienmalerei sowie den anderen im Entstehen begriffenen Bildgattungen. Die Beiträger\*innen bereichern die kunsthistorische Forschung zum europäischen Genrebild von der Frühen Neuzeit bis zur Moderne um ikonographische, rezeptionsästhetische und bildwissenschaftliche Aspekte. Dabei stellen sie insbesondere Bildphänomene und künstlerische Strategien der Temporalität, der Ambiguität und der Latenz als spezifische Dimensionen dieser Gattung ins Zentrum ihrer Analysen und liefern so eine Neuperspektivierung der Genremalerei.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Plausibilisierung und Evidenz sind nicht nur für den akademischen Diskurs unverzichtbar, sondern spielen auch im Alltag eine große Rolle. Die Beiträger\*innen nehmen Plausibilisierungs- und Evidenzpraktiken als dynamische Prozesse in unterschiedlichen Zusammenhängen in den Blick. Dabei beleuchten sie, wie diese Prozesse ausgelöst werden und warum sie so erfolgreich sind. Der sowohl historische wie auch systematische Zugang adressiert die Thematik in interdisziplinärer Spannweite und verspricht vielfältige Anknüpfungspunkte, die inner- und außerhalb der Wissenschaft relevant sind.
