"Indonesia is one of the most diverse countries in the world in terms of religion, ethnicity, and socioeconomic status, but also in the complexity of its education system. Youth, Education, and Islamic Radicalism examines the roots of religious intolerance among young Indonesians and explores the various ways in which educated youth navigate radical ideologies amid growing religious conservatism. The book presents nuanced explanations as to why one person becomes radicalized while another does not, calling into question the common assumption that religious radicalism is directly connected to terrorism. It problematizes the notion that the university is a significant hub, trigger, or birthplace of radicalization by asking: What makes education attractive for extremist recruitment? What shapes students' views? Under what circumstances do radicalization and deradicalization processes of educated youth take place? Youth, Education, and Islamic Radicalism identifies a constellation of factors that shape young people's views of religious diversity in Indonesia, demonstrating the ways in which they become radicalized in the first place, and how, in some cases, they deradicalize themselves"--

Öffentliche politische Skandale und die durch sie ausgelöste Empörungsdynamik prägen in besonderer Weise unsere Wahrnehmung von politischen Entscheidungen und Institutionen. Politische Skandale entfalten eine ganz erhebliche faktische politische Macht, ohne dass diese in verfassungsrechtlich formalisierten Strukturen eingehegt würde. Welche Machtressourcen liegen im politischen Skandal? Und in welcher Form wird diese Macht legitimiert und diszipliniert? Diesen Fragen widmet sich der Band mit Perspektiven aus der Politik-, Rechts-, Geschichts- und Kommunikationswissenschaft sowie der Soziologie und sucht im interdisziplinären Dialog nach gemeinsamen Antworten. Mit Beiträgen von Ulrich von Alemann | Steffen Burkhardt | Hanne Detel | Anthony Glees | Florian Grotz | Martin Kohlrausch | Nils Christian Kumkar | Frederik Orlowski | Sophie Schönberger | Jasmin Siri

Sithole problematises the signifier X, as a marker of the dehumanization of the black subject. He argues that post-1994 South Africa retains the markers of its colonial past, and remains a territory of unfreedom for blacks. He offers a new imagination for a liberatory project through the idea of Azania as a site of true emancipation.

In 'The Afterlife of Race', Lionel McPherson demystifies the Western concept of 'race' and reframes race ideology in America as a caste device that sponsors absurd pretexts for inherited slavery, enforced segregation and the wilful nonrepair of historical injustice. This reframing paves the way for an anti-caste vision of social equality that emphasizes the moral importance of Black American national specificity - not general antiracism, identity politics, or diversity 'of colour'.
