Stadtpolitik

Häussermann, Hartmut / Läpple, Dieter / Siebel, Walter
Stadtpolitik
Urbanität ist ein Kennzeichen der Moderne, die Entstehung der europäischen Metropolen rief Staunen und Kritik hervor. Dabei galten Städte nie als natürlicher Lebensraum, strategische Interventionen und sozialpolitische Projekte prägen bis heute ihr Erscheinungsbild. Das Buch widmet sich der Theorie und der Geschichte der Stadtpolitik in Deutschland. Der zeitdiagnostische Teil bietet einen Überblick über Themen wie Gentrification, Einkaufszentr...

Exklusion

Bude, Heinz / Willisch, Andreas
Exklusion
Das Gesellschaftsempfinden ist am Anfang unseres Jahrhunderts von der Vorstellung beherrscht, daß sich über die alte Unterscheidung von Oben und Unten die neue von Drinnen und Draußen legt. Quer durch die Schichten und Milieus zieht sich eine Spaltung zwischen denen, die von den Veränderungen der gesellschaftlichen Verhältnisse profitieren, und jenen, die nicht mithalten können. Die Provokation des Exklusionsbegriffs besteht darin, daß er eine...

Die griechische Biographie in hellenistischer Zeit

Schorn, Stefan / Erler, Michael
Die griechische Biographie in hellenistischer Zeit
Die griechische Biographie der hellenistischen Zeit stellt eine Gattung dar, die trotz der Bemühungen der letzten Jahrzehnte noch immer unzureichend erschlossen ist. Der Grund hierfür liegt vor allem im fragmentarischen Zustand der Werke. Der vorliegende Sammelband vereint die Vorträge eines internationalen Kongresses in Würzburg im Jahr 2006 zu diesen Schriften. Neben zum Teil erstmaligen literarischen Portraits einzelner Autoren finden sich ...

Geschichte und Personen bei Thukydides

Heitsch, Ernst
Geschichte und Personen bei Thukydides
Das achte Buch des Thukydides gilt dem peloponnesischen Krieg (431-404 v.Chr.) nach der sizilischen Katastrophe (413 v. Chr.) und damit einer Phase, in der sich der Krieg in einer schwer zu übersehenden Zahl von Einzelhandlungen zu verlieren scheint. Trotzdem geht von der Darstellung des Geschehens eine eigentümliche Faszination aus, insofern der Leser hier der Geschichte als einem Prozess begegnet, den zwar viele zu bestimmen suchen, der aber...

Forgeries of Memory and Meaning

Robinson, Cedric J
Forgeries of Memory and Meaning
Cedric J. Robinson offers a new understanding of race in America through his analysis of theater and film of the early twentieth century. He argues that economic, political, and cultural forces present in the eras of silent film and the early "talkies" firmly entrenched limited representations of African Americans. Robinson's analysis marks a new way of approaching the intellectual, political, and media racism present in the beginnings of Amer...

Governing Spirits

Román, Reinaldo L.
Governing Spirits
Freedom of religion did not come easily to Cuba or Puerto Rico. Only after the arrival of American troops during the Spanish-American War were non-Catholics permitted to practice their religions openly and to proselytize. When government efforts to ensure freedom of worship began, reformers on both islands rejoiced, believing that an era of regeneration and modernization was upon them. But as new laws went into effect, critics voiced their dis...

Allan, Julie
Rethinking Inclusive Education: The Philosophers of Difference in Practice
The inclusion of disabled children and those with difficult behaviour is increasingly being seen as an impossible challenge and, not surprisingly, concerns are being expressed by teachers unions and researchers about teachers’ capacities, and willingness, to manage these demands. With Warnock, the so-called ‘architect’ of inclusion now pronouncing this her ‘big mistake’ and calling for a return to special schooling, inclusion appears to be und...

MacIntyre, C. F.
French Symbolist Poetry, 50th Anniversary Edition, Bilingual Edition
Whether viewed as an influence or in and for themselves, the Symbolists are a tantalizing group. Paralleling similar movements in art and music, their intensely personal poetry leans more heavily on oblique suggestions and evocation than on overt statement. It sets its perceptions, intuitive and nonrational, squarely against intellectual and scientific thinking--and this with a music that is flexible, intrepid, and subtle, sometimes even disso...
