We live in an era of extreme claims versus weak consensus on issues critical to the public. Is climate change a hoax, or is it destroying our planet? Were the vaccines and social distancing measures of COVID-19 designed to protect us, or were they an invasion of our liberty? How do we determine the validity of these claims and others like them? Can we find a reliable middle ground leading to policies that help everyone? How Science Engages with Ethics and Why It Should makes an impassioned plea for a scientific analysis of ethics, discussing what such a method is, why we need it, and what it can offer that other methods cannot. With contributions from leading thinkers across a range of disciplines, Part 1 explores the challenges facing scientists and how to establish ground rules that will both protect human subjects and guide researchers in the future. Part 2 explores the importance of evidence-based science for topics such as climate change, social care, political polarization and rational decision-making, showing how even good science can go wrong, at times contributing to disastrous effects. At the cutting edge of its discipline, How Science Engages with Ethics and Why It Should provides a compelling case for demanding evidence-based analysis to form the foundation of the discussions and policies that affect our very lives.

Lerngruppen in Schulen und Hochschulen sind heute religiös sowie weltanschaulich divers - und Lernende von unterschiedlichen Diskriminierungen betroffen. Hamida Behr widmet sich marginalisierten Personen und konzipiert einen religionspädagogischen Ansatz, der Bildungsprozesse für alle ermöglicht. Auf Basis friedenspädagogischer Überlegungen nutzt sie Methoden aus der Theaterpädagogik, um in einem beispielhaften Seminar mit deutschen und jordanischen Studierenden konflikthafte biografische Erfahrungen wie abwertende Narrative und Othering zu überwinden. Anhand neu formulierter didaktischer Prinzipien können Pädagog*innen wiederum positive Veränderungen bewirken. So entsteht ein wichtiger Beitrag zur Weiterentwicklung einer problemorientierten Religionspädagogik, die der Diversität unserer Gesellschaft und ihrer Ungleichheitsstrukturen Rechnung trägt

In light of changing digital communication, this book addresses issues including a shift from a focus on oral to written practices; the rise of new communities of practice and communicative domains; and the need for resulting shifts in language policy and teaching methods when applied to minority (or autochthonous) heritage languages

The new parameters of a global world in the early modern period gave rise to an expansion of movement that facilitated spatial and social mobility for women of different social ranks. Through their reexamination of archival documents and travel narratives, these essays investigate the opportunities for female mobility across the Spanish Empire, narrating the journeys of women who assumed new and unpredictable roles in distant environments. Some risked transoceanic journeys to hold positions of colonial power, while nuns traveled to found convents. Portuguese and Genoese women financiers and merchants traversed the Mediterranean to command enterprises in different cities. Breaking with tradition, the noblewomen considered in these essays exercised political agency as ambassadresses and diplomatic spies at various European courts. Still other women fled across borders from oppressive marriages or cross-dressed as soldiers to perform adventurous feats in support of imperial causes. Their frequently distorted histories, authored by men, have been revised and rectified by the authors of this volume

In the early modern period, both legal and illegal maritime predation was a common occurrence, but the expansion of European maritime empires exacerbated existing and created new problems of piracy across the globe. This collection of original case studies addresses these early modern problems in three sections: first, states' attempts to exercise jurisdiction over seafarers and their actions; second, the multiple predatory marine practices considered 'piracy'; and finally, the many representations made about piracy by states or the seafarers themselves. Across nine chapters covering regions including southeast Asia, the Atlantic archipelago, the North African states, and the Caribbean Sea, the complexities of defining and criminalizing maritime predation is explored, raising questions surrounding subjecthood, interpolity law, and the impacts of colonization on the legal and social construction of ocean, port, and coastal spaces. Seeking the meanings and motivations behind piracy, this book reveals that while European states attempted to fashion piracy into a global and homogenous phenomenon, it was largely a local and often idiosyncratic issue

Paseos por Andalucía. Estudio y catálogo de las guías de viaje del siglo XIX propone un itinerario literario y visual a través de la que fue la región preferida de los viajeros románticos. El camino comprende diferentes etapas, en las que se estudia la evolución histórica del género, sus principales constituyentes editoriales, la condición de sus lectores, así como la idea de Andalucía y lo andaluz que se desprende de su lectura. En las últimas páginas se adjunta un catálogo con los títulos de las guías y su localización en las principales bibliotecas que ofrece una imagen lo más completa posible de este antecedente de la industria turística actual

The category of species has remained largely understudied in mainstream gender scholarship. This edition of the Yearbook of Women's History attempts to show how gender history can be enriched through the study of animals. It highlights that the inclusion of nonhuman animals in historical work has the potential to revolutionize the ways we think about gender history. This volume is expansive in more than one way. First, it is global and transhistorical in its outlook, bringing together perspectives from the Global North and the Global South, and moving from the Middle Ages to the contemporary world. Even more importantly for its purposes, a range of animals appear in the contributions: from the smallest insects to great apes, and from 'cute' kittens to riot dogs and lions. The articles collected here reflect the variety of the animal kingdom and of the creative approaches enabled by animal history

Over the past decade, digital technologies have profoundly reshaped the Chinese cultural landscape. With a focus on the creative agency of new media and online communities, this volume examines this development through the notion of the Sinocybersphere - the networked spaces across the globe that not only operate on the Chinese script, but also imaginatively negotiate the meanings of Chinese culture in the digital age. Instead of asking what makes the internet or new media "Chinese," the chapters situate contemporary entanglements of cultural and digital practices within specific historical, social, and discursive contexts. Covering topics as diverse as live-streaming, AI poetry, online literature, poetry memes, cyberpunk fiction, virtual art exhibitions, cooking videos, censorship, and viral translations, the collection as a whole not only engages with a wide range of Chinese new media phenomena, but also demonstrates their relevance to our understanding of contemporary digital culture

Ländliche Räume sind im Umbruch: Digitalisierung, Agrarwandel und Energiewende verändern Landschaften, Alltagspraktiken und Zukunftsvorstellungen auch jenseits der Städte. Trotzdem erfährt das Land im Vergleich zur Stadt von der Soziologie noch immer zu wenig Aufmerksamkeit. Die Beiträger*innen nehmen sich diesem Desiderat an und liefern kompakt und verständlich wissenschaftliche Erkenntnisse zur ländlichen Transformation. Aus verschiedenen soziologischen Perspektiven betrachten sie u.a. Aspekte wie Digital Farming, Migrationsethik, Mobilität in peripheren Regionen oder die Ästhetik von Landschaften - und geben so Impulse für eine nachhaltige Entwicklung ländlicher Regionen
