Die Verbindung zwischen Politikvermittlung und Unternehmensstrategie. - Spin-Doktoren spinnen. Sie manipulieren, verbreiten Unfug, sind bloss Geschichtenerzähler und Schönredner. Und vor allem eine Gefahr für das politische System. So weit die Meinung der breiten Öffentlichkeit. Dass diese Spezialisten der Politikvermittlung allerdings vielmehr das Produkt einer modernen demokratischen Gesellschaft sind und die von ihnen geförderte Kultur des Debattierens eine solche zusammenhalten kann, das zeigt der Kommunikationsexperte Mathias Ulmann in ?SPIN IT!?. Wenn er beschreibt, wie Spin-Doktoren denken und handeln, bleibt er allerdings nicht nur auf seine eigene Berufsgruppe fokussiert. Vielmehr wird klar, dass ein Einblick in seine Welt für viele Arbeitsfelder ertragreich ist. Sei es für Führungskräfte, die eine effiziente Vermittlungsstrategie suchen oder für Manager, die ihre Visionen formulieren wollen. Er zeigt auf, wie man durch die richtige Strategie aus einer Welt des Informationsüberflusses und Big Data heraus sticht und von seinen Visionen überzeugt. ?SPIN IT? IBM Kommunikation war gestern!

This essay explores some of the points of contact between philosophical reflection and dance. Paying close attention to way the figure of dance is put to work in texts by Norbert Elias, Karl Marx, Søren Kierkegaard, Friedrich Nietzsche, Paul de Man, Plato, and Jacques Derrida, the essay teases out a connection between the philosophical gesture of exemplification, the non sequitur whereby the abstract is propped up by or otherwise made to lean upon the concrete, and the move to an "outside" of the text understood either simply as reference, or more ambitiously as revolution. When, as is the case with the texts attended to here, dance is the example exemplified, a swirling field of reflexive associations arise around it, associations that invite us to recognize in dance a stance to be taken, perhaps even a set of steps to be followed, as activists and scholars alike contemplate what will be required to get from one world to another.

In a time of professionalization of permanent political campaigns with organized and orchestrated media campaigns, we are witnesses of the growing importance of spin and spin doctors. This article is following academic determination and categorization of spin, spin techniques that are employed by spin doctors, and their social consequences. The goal of this article is, in time of the political campaign to put more attention on the role of spin doctors in the design of political reality.

The article focuses on the discussion of spin in the Danish media, especially during the 2005 election campaign, in which spin was a prominent issue amongst journalists. The main argument is that this is not primarily an expression of a professional, self-reflective con- sciousness regarding the shifts in the relationship between the media, society and politics. Rather, it is an expression of a self-legitimizing meta-discourse that might, however, fail to see the more structurally rooted tendencies that spin is part of - a mediatization of politics - presenting new perspectives and challenges for both politics and the media. These perspectives appear to disintegrate in the comprehen- sive but often one-dimensional and self-centered discourse of jour- nalists and communication experts, wherein they proclaim every political, communicative initiative as spin in the hunt for the disclosure of political facade.

Spin pumping (SP) is a well-established method to generate pure spin currents allowing efficient spin injection into metals and semiconductors avoiding the problem of impedance mismatch. However, to disentangle pure spin currents from parasitic effects due to spin rectification effects (SRE) is a difficult task that is seriously hampering further developments. Here we propose a simple method that allows suppressing SRE contribution to inverse spin Hall effect (ISHE) voltage signal avoiding long and tedious angle-dependent measurements. We show an experimental study in the well-known Py/Pt system by using a coplanar waveguide (CPW). Results obtained demonstrate that the sign and size of the measured transverse voltage signal depends on the width of the sample along the CPW active line. A progressive reduction of this width evidences that SRE contribution to the measured transverse voltage signal becomes negligibly small for sample width below 200 μm. A numerical solution of the Maxwell equations in the CPW-sample setup, by using the Landau-Lifshitz equation with the Gilbert damping term (LLG) as the constitutive equation of the media, and with the proper set of boundary conditions, confirms the obtained experimental results. ; We acknowledge financial support from the Spanish Ministry of Science, Innovation and Universities through Severo Ochoa Program (CEX2019-000917-S), RTI2018-099960-B-I00 and funding from the European Union Horizon 2020 research and innovation program under the Marie Sklodowska-Curie grant agreement No. 645658 (DAFNEOX Project) and FEDER Program.
