Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -'Dimensions. Journal of Architectural Knowledge' is an academic journal in, on, and from the discipline of architecture, addressing the creation, constitution, and transmission of architectural knowledge. It explores methods genuine to the discipline and architectural modes of interdisciplinary methodological adaptions. Processes, procedures, and results of knowledge creation and practice are esteemed coequally, with particular attention to the architectural design and epistemologies of aesthetic practice and research.Issue 08/2024 discusses how multidimensional and diverse forms of thinking, designing, and building disrupt and challenge existing paradigms in the field of architecture in times of multiple struggles - characterised by inequality, conflicts, and exploitation of space. How do these changes impact architecture as a profession, practice, and discipline How do spatial practitioners contribute to a more just spatial production including various voices and encouraging resource-saving urban practices Referring to Audre Lorde we ask: 'Are we doing the work ' This issue features contributions reflecting on collaborative practices, research, and diverse forms of architectural knowledge in activism, the building of networks, and alliances.transcript Verlag, Hermannstraße 26, 33602 Bielefeld 404 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -Marking 25 years since its founding, the German Reference Centre for Ethics in the Life Sciences (DRZE) presents the key insights of an international symposium in this edited volume. As disruptive biotechnologies- such as genome editing or AI-based synthetic biology - and ecological crises reshape our world, normative guidance is more vital than ever. The contributors to this collection explore how bioethics, as a philosophically informed and interdisciplinary practice, can respond to ethical challenges in medicine, agriculture, and beyond. With contributions from leading scholars, it charts future directions for bioethics. Join us on a journey to rediscover bioethics.transcript Verlag, Hermannstraße 26, 33602 Bielefeld 222 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -Why are so many ghost stories narrated by men - and what do these tales reveal about ideas of masculinity Anna S. Berger explores how Victorian and Edwardian supernatural fiction reflects anxieties around imperial decline, compulsive heterosexuality, domestic instability, and shifting gender roles. From haunted houses to colonial outposts, male protagonists face spectral challenges to the imperial masculine ideal, paternal authority, and male rational control. By drawing on works by authors like Rudyard Kipling, Elizabeth Gaskell, and Arthur Conan Doyle, this study reveals the ghost story as a site where normative masculinity falters - and alternative visions of male identity emerge.transcript Verlag, Hermannstraße 26, 33602 Bielefeld 276 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -The far right and its fascism are on the rise. Again. The contributors to this volume bring together activist, scholarly, artist and journalist expertise on populism and propaganda, governance and media communication, far-right violence and terrorism. They address resistance strategies of academia and activism as well as NGOs and Civil Rights Movements, by deconstructing far-right strategies of governance or communication and providing counter-argumentations and communication strategies, as well as strategies of political or civic education, empathy or solidarity as modes of intervention. The volume also contextualises the far right, taking historical and cross-spatial dis\*continuities into account.transcript Verlag, Hermannstraße 26, 33602 Bielefeld Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -How are the histories of art and fashion connected in the global context of world's fairs The contributors to this volume analyze the changing roles assumed by the arts, visual media, handicrafts, and artifacts and investigate the unifying conceptions of the ¿Gesamtkunstwerk¿ in the framework of national representations at world's fairs. They reflect the ambivalent status of Latin American re-/presentations and the artistic and curatorial strategies employed by representatives of (post)colonial or ¿peripheral¿ states. By focusing on transcultural style migrations and aesthetic discourses in a globalized art world, the volume provides a re-vision of international exhibitions and world's fairs from the perspective of a critical art history.transcript Verlag, Hermannstraße 26, 33602 Bielefeld 398 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -The current historical moment, often referred to as the Anthropocene, is defined by profound human influence on the planetary system. Lena Pfeifer examines how contemporary US-American literature negotiates the political, ethical, and epistemological challenges posed by the Anthropocene.Connecting new formalist approaches with theories of scale,she develops the concept of 'Anthropocene affordances' as a new methodological framework for analyzing narrative responses to the recent ecological crisis that reconfigure conventional forms and narrative strategies to critically discuss the role of the human as a geological force.transcript Verlag, Hermannstraße 26, 33602 Bielefeld 282 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -Russia's attack on Ukraine in 2022 was called a watershed in postwar European history. The West sees Putin's Russia on the way to restoring the former Soviet Union. But Putin's increasingly aggressive stance was also a reaction to Western politics. The real possibility of a new security and peace order in Europe opening in the 1990s was not pursued. Instead, NATO was enlarged to the east. Now, a massive arms build-up is on the way. Using historical sources, international news media, representative surveys, and personal interviews with people in Ukraine, Max Haller shows that this war has not been predetermined and - following Kant - peace initiatives are possible even now. In these, the European Union should assume a leading role.transcript Verlag, Hermannstraße 26, 33602 Bielefeld 326 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -Flucht und Migration sind zentrale Themen zahlreicher Debatten. Dabei werden die Bedürfnisse und Rechte minderjähriger Flüchtlinge häufig ignoriert, obwohl Kinder und Jugendliche besonders schutzbedürftig sind. Sie haben einen Anspruch auf eine angemessene Gestaltung von Flucht-, Aufnahme- und Integrationsprozessen. Karoline Reinhardt und Gottfried Schweiger zeigen: Es liegt in unserer Verantwortung, ihnen ausreichenden Schutz und Unterstützung zu bieten. Diesen Verpflichtungen dürfen wir uns nicht entziehen, auch wenn dies politische, ökonomische und gesellschaftliche Herausforderungen mit sich bringt.transcript Verlag, Hermannstraße 26, 33602 Bielefeld 132 pp. Deutsch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -In der Schlüsselszene von Victor Hugos Roman Notre-Dame de Parisgerät eine Mücke in das Netz einer riesigen Spinne. Edi Zollinger macht daran bisher unentdeckte Erzählfäden sichtbar, die durch die europäische Literaturgeschichte bis zu OvidsWeberin Arachne, der Mutter der Dichtkunst, zurückführen. Es werden außerdem Radierungen von Dürer und Rembrandt in den Blick genommen, auf die sich Hugo mit seinem Spinngewebe ebenfalls bezieht. So erzählt diese literatur- und kunsthistorische Reise die Geschichte eines ambitionierten französischen Schriftstellers des 19. Jahrhunderts, der sich mit seiner Wort gewordenen Pariser Kathedrale Notre-Dame als legitimer Erbe von Arachne, der besten Erzählerin aller Zeiten, etablieren möchte.transcript Verlag, Hermannstraße 26, 33602 Bielefeld 96 pp. Deutsch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -Ökologische Krisen erschüttern die Grundlagen unseres Zusammenlebens und erfordern eine historisch beispiellose sozial-ökologische Transformation, die auf massive Widerstände trifft. Angesichts der existenziellen Gefahren des Klimawandels ist eine Doppelstrategie gegen Kollaps und Klimabarbarei erforderlich: ökologische Modernisierung jetzt und radikaler Systemwandel langfristig. Frank Adloff zeigt die Handlungsspielräume der Sozialwissenschaften bei dieser Aufgabe auf, die die Grenzen des Machbaren benennen, Natur und Gesellschaft neu denken sowie alternative soziale Welten entwerfen. Eine solche 'Soziologie des Wirklichen und des Möglichen'sollte nach dem Ende des linearen Fortschritts eine neue Balance zwischen Freiheit und ökologischem Gemeinwohl suchen.transcript Verlag, Hermannstraße 26, 33602 Bielefeld 248 pp. Deutsch.
