This article outlines a number of steps toward a more sensitive and affirmative conception of childhood and hope ("childhood-hope"). Throughout the article, the author explores how our understandings of hope might be extended via an examination of childhood-hope. First, it considers childhood as a universalizing, affective condition, which can be characterized by very simplistic, and problematic, notions of hope, logic, and futurity. The author connects this line of thought explicitly with what the author identifies as impulses of hopefulness and of "doing good" for children, exemplified by a selection of "high-profile" quotations about children. Second, the author extends the discussion to explore everyday articulations of hope by young people involved in a project concerning their interpretations and experiences of self-esteem. The author concludes by outlining how universal representations of childhood-hope may be extended and critiqued though young people's own articulations of hope, and draw attention to some of the positive political interventions that young people's modest forms of hoping might have.

With its ascendancy in American political discourse during the past few years, hope has become a watchword of politics, yet the rhetoric has failed to inquire into the actual function of hope in political life. This essay examines elpis, the Greek word for "hope," in Thucydides' History and offers a theoretical account of this concept and its connection to successful political action. I suggest that a complex understanding of hope structures Thucydides' narrative: Hope counts as among the most dangerous political delusions, yet it also offers the only possible response to despair. Thucydides' text educates the judgment of his readers, chastening hope while showing its importance despite its flaws. The History thus offers an alternative for considering the politics of hope, one that challenges hope's ardent proponents today. Adapted from the source document.

"Trip-hop" was a label cast upon music that, in the early 1990s, sounded from the boundaries of dub, hip-hop, electronic, jazz, soul, psychedelia. Acoustically arresting albums like Massive Attack's Blue Lines and Protection ; Portishead's Dummy ; Tricky's Maxinquaye ; DJ Shadow's Endtroducing... - these, and scores of records on labels like Mo' Wax and Ninja Tune, seemed to speak to a sense of collective alienation and disenchantment, with the end of the century in sight. But the 'trip-hop' label was loathed by most of the musicians and producers; and by the early 2000s, receding into a bland ignominy of soundtracks and commercial imitation, the scene seemed to have exhausted itself. The music went on, just like it had come before. This short book seeks to dislocate "trip-hop" and instead understand this music within wider and more interesting aesthetic traditions. Traditions in which qualities of beauty, intimacy, and nostalgia sit alongside complexity, virtuosity, and furious experimentation. It places this strange, spacious, avant garde sound alongside musics of exile, loss, and the Black diaspora. Like the music, this book will both offer solace and challenge. It will ask questions about who gets to define genres, and what - and who - do such genres exclude. And it will ask, as a listener, how do you untrain your ears and escape complicity from the commercial imperatives of labels and algorithms?."--

This comparative research project looks at the co-operation between state and social organizations (SOs) in China and Germany. It focusses on social service delivery in the area of integration of migrating populations with special attention to the fields of education, employment, vulnerable groups and social assistance (incl. legal aid) as a crosscutting issue to all of the fields. Within this subject area, the project wants to identify different models of state-SO co-operation and analyze which models are successful and why and where this co-operation is problematic. It aims to capture the different models of co-operation in Germany and China, to analyze and compare the underlying structures and to show potentialities for development.
