    Manufacturing Refused Knowledge in the Age of Epistemic Pluralism (2024)
    Springer Nature | Palgrave Macmillan
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-06
    Description: This open access book explores contemporary practices that challenge science, arguing that this matter cannot be simply disregarded as a new manifestation of “anti-scientism”. It scrutinizes the processes through which knowledge claims, refused by established institutions and the scientific community, seek legitimacy. Assuming an agnostic analytical stance, it explores the actors involved in such processes and their social worlds, their interactions with epistemic institutions, and the ways in which they enact such refused knowledge in their daily lives. Drawing on a three-year mixed-method research project, this collection demonstrates how refused knowledge can be seen as a distinct mode of knowing, employed in response to the uncertainties of everyday life. Thus, it offers a deeper understanding not only of how refused knowledge garners credibility, but also of how knowledge at large – including scientific knowledge – emerges from specific sociotechnical assemblages.

    Biographical Life Course Research (2024)
    Springer Nature | Palgrave Macmillan
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-11
    Description: This open access book explores an approach that connects individual and societal processes throughout history and shifting trends in sociological perspectives, influenced by C. Wright Mills’ theories of time and temporality. It traces its origins from American pragmatist thought and Chicago qualitative sociology in the early 20th century to the revival of biographical research in European and American sociology during the 1970s. The book shows empirical studies from this vibrant research approach can bridge methodological gaps between qualitative and quantitative biographical studies, applicable to various topics like class, gender, ethnicity, and intergenerational dimensions.

    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-07
    Description: In an era of rapid change and increasing societal demands, the role of universities as knowledge producers and catalysts for change has come under scrutiny. This open access book offers a fresh perspective on the significance of universities in society, shedding light on how their knowledge can truly matter beyond academia. Drawing upon insightful inquiries from both the Swedish and international contexts, this volume delves into the multifaceted interactions between universities and various knowledge users, emphasizing the need for scholars to reflect on how their knowledge can become useful and applicable to wider society. Organized into three compelling themes, collaboration, engagement, and impact, this book explores the concept of "mattering". Together and jointly, they point at the fluid movement of scholars and scholarly knowledge across academic, political, and public spaces, and the intentional actions of scientists to leverage their expertise for real-worldimpact. Essential reading for social science and humanities scholars, university management professionals, and individuals keen on a critical understanding of the evolving role of universities, this volume offers a comprehensive examination of how universities have mattered, continue to matter, and can shape the future.

    Die Theorien in der Kulturproduktion (2024)
    Springer Nature | Springer Fachmedien Wiesbaden
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-06
    Description: Kultur- und sozialwissenschaftliches Wissen hat über die letzten 50 Jahre eine beständige Verbreitung erfahren und wurde zu einem festen Bestandteil gegenwärtiger Gesellschaften. Dies bezieht sich allerdings nicht nur auf die Ergebnisse der Disziplinen, sondern trifft im besonderen Maße auf deren grundlegende theoretische Konzepte zu. In verschiedensten gesellschaftlichen Bereichen repräsentiert dieses Wissen eine Ressource für die Akteur*innen, um Produktionsprozesse anzuleiten. Die Theorien liefern daher nicht nur Beschreibungen des Sozialen, sondern sie wirken „performativ“. Diese Open-Access-Publikation fokussiert auf den Bereich der Kulturproduktion und zeigt auf, welche Bedingungen zur Verwendung der theoretischen Konzepte außerhalb der Wissenschaft geführt haben, wie die Theorien in Prozessen zur Anwendung kommen und welche Veränderungen daraus folgen. Hierzu wird zuerst ein konzeptioneller sowie methodologischer Rahmen präsentiert, bevor die empirische Studie einer Kulturwelt detaillierte Einblicke in die Wirkungsweisen ermöglicht. Anhand der so verdeutlichten Aspekte der Performativität von kultur- und sozialwissenschaftlichen Theorien lässt sich schlussendlich aufzeigen, wie Kulturproduktion in gegenwärtigen Gesellschaften eine zentrale Stellung einnehmen konnte. ; Kultur- und sozialwissenschaftliches Wissen hat über die letzten 50 Jahre eine beständige Verbreitung erfahren und wurde zu einem festen Bestandteil gegenwärtiger Gesellschaften.

    The Power of Energy Justice & the Social Contract (2024)
    Springer Nature | Palgrave Macmillan
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-07
    Description: This open access book focuses on the energy sector and will make a significant contribution to its continued evolution. For many years, the energy sector has been missing a raison d’etre and now finally there are increased calls for that to be justice. Hence, this book will develop the concept of energy justice and how it needs to be formalised in a new ‘social contract’ with all stakeholders in society. The focus will be on improving legal systems at local, national and international levels while ensuring that justice is a core issue within energy law, the legal system and more broadly in society.

    Women’s Private Practices of Knowledge Production in Early Modern Europe (2024)
    Springer Nature | Palgrave Macmillan
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-04
    Description: This open access book explores knowledge practices by five women from different European contexts. Contributors document, analyze, and discuss how women employed practices of privacy to pursue knowledge that did not necessarily conform with the curriculum prescribed for them. The practices of Jane Lumley in England, Camila Herculiana in Padua, Victorine de Chastenay in Paris, as well as Elisabeth Sophie Marie and Philippine Charlotte in Brunswick-Wolfenbüttel, will help us to exemplify the delicate balance between audacity and obedience that women had to employ to be able to explore science, literature, philosophy, theology, and other types of learned activities. Cases range from the sixteenth to the nineteenth century, presenting continuities and discontinuities across temporal and geographical lines of the strategies that women used to protect their knowledge production and retain intact their reputations as good Christian daughters, wives, and mothers. Taken together, the essays show how having access to privacy—the ability to regulate access to themselves while studying and learning—was a crucial condition for the success of the knowledge activities these women pursued. This is an open access book.

    Publication Date: 2024-03-24
    Description: This open access book takes the biographical case of German feminist Käthe Schirmacher (1865–1930), a multilingual translator, widely travelled writer of fiction and non-fiction, and a disputatious activist to examine the travel and translation of ideas between the women’s movements that emerged in many countries in the late 19th and early 20th century. It discusses practices such as translating, interpreting, and excerpting from journals and books that spawned and supported transnational civic spaces and develops a theoretical framework to analyse these practices. It examines translations of literary, scholarly and political texts and their contexts. The book will be of interest to academics as well as undergraduate and postgraduate students in the fields of modern history, women’s and gender history, cultural studies, transnational and transfer history, translation studies, history and theory of biography.

    Segregierte Quartiere – segregierte Freizeiträume (2024)
    Springer Nature | Springer Fachmedien Wiesbaden
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-05-09
    Description: Dieses Open-Access-Buch stellt vor dem Hintergrund einer zunehmenden sozialen Segregation in deutschen Städten die Frage nach den Auswirkungen dieser sich verschärfenden räumlichen Polarisierung auf die Sozialisation von Jugendlichen. Die Arbeit geht dabei über den quartiersfixierten Ansatz der Nachbarschaftseffektforschung hinaus und untersucht, welche Räume in der Stadt von Berliner Jugendlichen in ihrer Freizeit tatsächlich genutzt werden und damit für sie sozialisationsrelevant sind. Der Fokus liegt auf dem Einfluss, den einerseits individuelle Merkmale, wie Geschlecht und sozialer Status, und andererseits die Stadtstruktur auf das räumliche Freizeitverhalten der Jugendlichen haben. Zentral ist dabei die Frage, ob sich die soziale Segregation der Wohnquartier auch in den Aktivitätsräumen der Jugendlichen widerspiegelt. Um diese Frage zu beantworten, werden Daten mit einer eigens für diese Arbeit entwickelten innovativen räumlich-quantitativen Befragung erhoben, vor dem Hintergrund der physischen und sozialräumlichen Struktur Berlins ausgewertet und durch qualitative Leitfadeninterviews ergänzt.

    Von Japan nach Deutschland (2024)
    Springer Nature | Springer Fachmedien Wiesbaden
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-05-12
    Description: In diesem Open-Access-Buch wird erstmals mithilfe einer qualitativen Studie in den fünf größten japanischen Communitys Deutschlands - Düsseldorf, München, Berlin, Frankfurt am Main, Hamburg - das Migrations- und Eingliederungsverhalten dauerhaft ansässiger Japanerinnen und Japaner in Deutschland untersucht. Die Zahlen belegen, dass es sich bei den japanischen Migrantinnen und Migranten um eine kleine Gruppe handelt. Dennoch übt sie einen prägenden Einfluss auf die Wirtschaft und die Infrastruktur in den jeweiligen Städten aus, worauf auch die Tätigkeiten verschiedener Vereine sowie eine öffentliche Präsenz dieser Gruppe in der Presse, in Broschüren und im Internet hinweisen. Vor dem Hintergrund der Globalisierung wird es immer dringender, Migration zwischen wohlhabenden Ländern sowie die Eingliederung der von dort kommenden Personen zu betrachten. Vanessa Tkotzyk zeigt anhand der permanent ansässigen Japanerinnen und Japaner, dass nicht mehr nur Expatriates und ihre Familien nach Deutschland auswandern, sondern auch solche außerhalb des Firmenkontextes und dass japanische Migrantinnen und Migranten hochinteressante Merkmale für die Migrations- und Integrationsforschung aufweisen. Dies kann eine nähere Betrachtung der Entwicklung von Integrationskonzepten ermöglichen, die eine größere Diversität von Migrantinnen und Migranten berücksichtigen.

    Splendors of Quanzhou, Past and Present (2023)
    Springer Nature | Springer Nature Singapore
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-04
    Description: This open access book explores the past and present of Quanzhou (Zayton) and the rich diversity and tolerance that kindled Quanzhou’s innovativeness and helped it prosper both commercially and culturally—values that are today being embraced by China’s global trade partners. Quanzhou (Zayton), Marco Polo’s port of departure and Columbus’ goal in China, was not only the start of the Maritime Silk Road and the Middle Age’s greatest port but also centuries ahead of its time in its tolerance and diversity. The fabled “City of Light” had 7 mosques for its 40,000 Muslims, some of whom served in government, as well as 3 Franciscan cathedrals funded in part by the emperor, Jewish synagogues, and centers for Nestorian Christians, Hindus, Taoists, Manicheans, Jains, etc. As Franciscan Bishop Andrew of Perugia wrote in 1322, “Tis a fact that in this vast empire, there are people of every nation under heaven, and every sect, and all and sundry are allowed to live freely according to their creed.” In 2021, UNESCO designated “Quanzhou, Emporium of the World,” as a world heritage site, and the city is now the hub of the Belt and Road Initiative, the 21st Century Silk Road, which was inspired by ancient Quanzhou.

    Akzeptanzkommunikation in der Energie- und Rohstoffwirtschaft (2023)
    Springer Nature | Springer Fachmedien Wiesbaden
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-03-29
    Description: Diese Open-Access-Publikation untersucht die Akzeptanz der sächsischen Bevölkerung gegenüber Energie- und Rohstoffvorhaben sowie die Eignung von Kommunikationsmaßnahmen zur Verbesserung des Akzeptanzniveaus. Die Bürger:innen werden erstmals repräsentativ zu ihrer (In-)Akzeptanz gegenüber Anlagearten befragt. Dabei wird nachgewiesen, dass die Akzeptanz bei lokalen Projekten immer geringer ist als soziopolitisch. Bei den erneuerbaren Energieumwandlungsanlagen ist die Akzeptanz gegenüber Wasserkraft- und Solaranlagen am höchsten, gegenüber Biomasseanlagen am geringsten. Fossile Energieumwandlungsanlagen sind weniger akzeptiert und Tage- und Untertagebaue werden am schlechtesten bewertet. Eine vergleichende Befragung der Unternehmensvertreter:innen des Energie- und Rohstoffsektors ergibt eine Dissonanz der von ihnen angenommenen zur erfassten (In-)Akzeptanz der Bevölkerung: Das Akzeptanzniveau ist unabhängig von der Art des Vorhabens geringer, als es die Unternehmensvertreter:innen annehmen. Die Erkenntnisse werden genutzt, um eine Webapplikation zu entwickeln, die es insbesondere kleinen und mittleren Unternehmen ermöglicht, zur Akzeptanzsteigerung geeignete Kommunikationsmaßnahmen auszuwählen.

    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-06
    Description: This open access book contributes to the discourse of Responsible Artificial Intelligence (AI) from an African perspective. It is a unique collection that brings together prominent AI scholars to discuss AI ethics from theoretical and practical African perspectives and makes a case for African values, interests, expectations and principles to underpin the design, development and deployment (DDD) of AI in Africa. The book is a first in that it pays attention to the socio-cultural contexts of Responsible AI that is sensitive to African cultures and societies. It makes an important contribution to the global AI ethics discourse that often neglects AI narratives from Africa despite growing evidence of DDD in many domains. Nine original contributions provide useful insights to advance the understanding and implementation of Responsible AI in Africa, including discussions on epistemic injustice of global AI ethics, opportunities and challenges, an examination of AI co-bots and chatbots in an African work space, gender and AI, a consideration of African philosophies such as Ubuntu in the application of AI, African AI policy, and a look towards a future of Responsible AI in Africa. This is an open access book.

    Der Staat als ‚Guter Auftraggeber‘? Öffentliche Auftragsvergabe zwischen Vermarktlichung und Sozialpolitisierung (2023)
    Springer Nature | Springer Fachmedien Wiesbaden
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-03-29
    Description: Diese Open-Access-Publikation befasst sich mit den vielfältigen Entscheidungsprozessen, mit denen der Bieterwettbewerb um öffentliche Aufträge gestaltet wird und fragt, inwieweit dabei versucht wird, gute Arbeitsbedingungen für die Beschäftigten beauftragter Unternehmen zu gewährleisten. Inwieweit bemüht sich der Staat als ‚Guter Auftraggeber‘ die Lücken der kollektiven Selbstregulierung des Arbeitsmarktes (durch Tarifverträge, betriebliche Mitbestimmung) zu schließen – oder trägt im Gegenteil dazu bei, sie zu vertiefen? Neben einer Analyse der Gesetzesentwicklung auf europäischer und nationaler Ebene bilden Fallstudien zur Vergabepraxis auf kommunaler Ebene in Deutschland das Kernstück der empirischen Erhebung. Die Befunde verdeutlichen, dass die Vergabepolitik und -praxis durch widersprüchliche Trends geprägt wird: Zum einen durch die Intensivierung von Marktprinzipien (Vermarktlichung), indem Regelungen und Praktiken, die dem Bieterwettbewerb zugunsten sozialer Ziele Schranken setzen, seit Beginn des Europäischen Binnenmarktes an immer restriktivere Bedingungen geknüpft worden sind. Dem stehen zum anderen verschiedene Ansätze gegenüber, sozialen Kriterien bei der Auftragsvergabe einen größeren Stellenwert einzuräumen (Sozialpolitisierung) – etwa durch Tariftreuebestimmungen. Dieses dauerhafte, institutionalisierte Nebeneinander widersprüchlicher Trends generiert Handlungsdilemmata für die kommunale Politik und Verwaltung, wie auch für die Akteure der industriellen Beziehungen.

    Managing Infodemics in the 21st Century (2023)
    Springer Nature | Springer International Publishing
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-03
    Description: This open access book on infodemic management reviews the current discussions about this evolving area of public health from a variety of perspectives. Infodemic management is an evidence-based practice underpinned by the science of infodemiology that offers guidance to better manage pandemic and epidemic risks and more quickly tackle new and resurgent health threats. Infodemic management has added much visibility and recognition for the importance of social-behavioural sciences, health communication, participatory and human-centered approaches, and digital health as complementary scientific and practical approaches that also must be strengthened in public health practice through a whole-of-society and whole information ecosystem approach. This volume makes a case that health of the information ecosystem in the digital age has emerged as the fourth ecosystem that public health is challenged by, along with the triad of environment-human-animal health. The book brings together scientists and practitioners across disciplines to offer insights on infodemic management. The tools, methods, analytics, and interventions that they discuss in the context of acute health events also can be applied to other public health areas. Topics covered include: People's Experience of Information Overload and Its Impact on Infodemic Harms Smart Health! Expanding the Need for New Literacies To Debunk or Not to Debunk? Correcting (Mis)information Partnering with Communities for Effective Management of Health Emergencies Managing Infodemics in the 21st Century is required reading for public health practitioners in need of an overview of this evolving field of practice that has made major scientific and practical leaps forward since early 2020. Global, regional, and local health authorities are increasingly recognizing the need to expand their capacities for infodemic management in their efforts to better prepare for future health emergencies. This book is the resource they need to build toward a mature infodemic management process. The text also can be used as supplemental reading for graduate programs and courses in public health.

    European Narratives on Remote Working and Coworking During the COVID-19 Pandemic (2023)
    Springer Nature | Springer Nature Switzerland
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-04
    Description: This open access book offers a multidisciplinary and comprehensive perspective regarding the immediate and long-term effects of the Covid-19 pandemic on coworking spaces in the European Region. The current pandemic has imposed several effects on work and spaces for work. Some are immediate effects and will last for a short time (such as the closing down of the space), some will last longer (namely, the reorganisation of the space to meet the physical distancing), and some will stay for a long time (remote working and hybrid working). Although the literature on coworking spaces and the effects of the pandemic is growing fast, empirical studies are yet limited. Within this context, this book seeks a twofold aim: (i) to contribute to the fast-growing literature on coworking space and their effects at different scales; (ii) to present a multidisciplinary perspective about the effects of the yet-lasting Corona-pandemic effects on the patterns of remote working and consequently on coworking spaces, as the most diffused form of new working spaces.

    Description: In diesem Open-Access-Buch wird in einem ersten Schritt theoretisch erarbeitet, weshalb Stigmatisierung ein inhärenter Bestandteil von Wohnungsnot ist, welche Konsequenzen diese konkret für die Teilhabe von Menschen in Wohnungsnot hat und weshalb die Verknüpfung mit Intersektionalität in mehrfacher Hinsicht (u. a. zur Reduktion des komplexen Phänomens Wohnungsnot) gewinnbringend ist. Basierend auf der Intersektionalen Mehrebenenanalyse von Winker und Degele wird dargelegt, wie die Multi-Methoden-Untersuchung aufgebaut ist. Im zweiten Schritt erfolgt dabei die Erläuterung der Untersuchung, welche über zwei Zugänge vier verschiedene Studien realisiert. Im Fokus stehen dabei die Öffentliche sowie strukturelle Stigmatisierung von Wohnungsnot. Die Ergebnisse bestätigen die vorab getroffenen Annahmen und liefern einen Überblick über die Stigmatisierung von Wohnungsnot.

The book includes a new methodology to analyse the design and theory of urban plans (the comparative urban portfolio analysis) and quasi-experimental strategies to perform impact assessment at the neighbourhood level (the territorial target of those initiatives). Although empirical analyses focus on examples in Spain, the resulting analytical and methodological outcomes of these studies can be applied in a broader context to analyse integral urban policies in other countries.

Mit dieser chronologischen Perspektivierung trägt der Band einerseits der politischen und institutionellen Tatsache Rechnung, dass der politische und staatsrecht-liche Umbruch am Ende des Ersten Weltkrieges die organisatorischen und institutionel-len Grundlagen des Archivwesens massiv beeinflusste. Andererseits möchte der Band dezidiert eine Verengung allein auf den politisch-staatlichen Systemwechsel vermeiden, denn keineswegs alle prägenden Entwicklungen des deutschen Archivwesens dieser Zeit lassen sich auf diese Ebene zurückführen.

    Hamburg University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-03
    Description: Die Teilung Schleswigs nach Volksabstimmungen im Jahre 1920 hatte langfristige Folgen nördlich und südlich der neuen Grenze. Viele wurden durch Agitation und Abstimmung tief beeindruckt, sogar die Archive des Gebiets mussten geteilt werden. Nordschleswig wurde als ein Teil des Königreichs Dänemarks einverleibt. Diese wurde von einem nordschleswigschen Ministerium vorbereitet und kam bei der Konstruktion der Grenze sowie in Schule und Kirche zum Ausdruck. Die deutsche Minderheit widersetzte sich der Integration und während der Krisenjahre entstanden extreme politische Bewegungen. Diese Folgen werden in diesem Buch thematisiert, das ein Ergebnis einer deutsch-dänischen Zusammenarbeit zwischen dem Landesarchiv Schleswig-Holstein und dem Rigsarkivet Aabenraa mit dem Studienzentrum für die Geschichte Schleswigs ist.

    Description: This open access interdisciplinary book integrates the major findings and theoretical advances of a 12-year research program run by the Swiss National Centre of Competence in Research LIVES research program hosted by the universities of Lausanne and Geneva, within a single comprehensive and coherent publication on vulnerability across adulthood. The book is based on the idea that vulnerability is an essential component of the life course that can inform how we use our resources, reserves and cope with stressors across the life course. It provides a unique interdisciplinary research framework based on the idea that vulnerability is a complex and dynamic process that can only be approached through a multidimensional, multilevel, and multidirectional perspective. This is an invaluable new resource for students and researchers in life course studies, and those from other disciplines willing to include life course factors in their research on vulnerability issues.

    Re-presenting Research (2023)
    Springer Nature | Palgrave Macmillan
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-03-24
    Description: This open access book focuses on the textual features, or ‘strategies’, which form popularization discourse. In popularization discourse, research findings from academia are re-presented to make them noteworthy to society and influential for everyday life. Popularization involves recontextualization, or reimagination of findings in an everyday and newsworthy context, and reformulation, the use of audience-appropriate language to increase text comprehension and engagement. ‘Re-presenting research’ presents an empirically grounded, analytic framework for the analysis of popularization texts. Its applicability spans across disciplinary, multidisciplinary, and interdisciplinary fields, and overarches science communication, science journalism, and research communication. The book offers theoretical background information on popularization discourse, empirical underpinning of the construction of the framework, and practical applicability in examples from multiple text types and academic fields. This book acts as a guide for those working with or on popularization discourse – whether it is to analyze it or learn about it.

    The Business of Hope (2023)
    Springer Nature | Palgrave Macmillan
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-03
    Description: This open access book contributes to research on the ascendance of neoliberalism in Canada through the vantage point of professional fundraising in the 1990s and 2000s. Fifty high-ranking fundraisers from across Canada were interviewed through 2008 and 2009 about changes they had witnessed since starting their careers. Fundraising as an occupation was burgeoning in this period in response to the devolution of state responsibility across the major domains of nonprofit activity: education, health care, social services, the arts, recreation, overseas humanitarian activities, and environmental protection. Welfare state retrenchment left the nonprofit and voluntary sector competing for private sources of funding with the help of these newly hired expert staff.

    Die unsichtbaren Folgen des Extraktivismus (2023)
    Springer Nature | Springer VS
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-03-29
    Description: Dieses Open-Access-Buch beschäftigt sich mit Umweltproblemen, die selbst im Kontext der heutigen globalen ökologischen Krise weitgehend gesellschaftlich unsichtbar bleiben, da sie ihre oftmals schwerwiegenden sozial-ökologischen Auswirkungen allmählich, schleichend und über längere Zeiträume hinweg in Form einer slow violence (Rob Nixon) entfalten. Am Beispiel der toxischen Industrieabfälle (Tailings) der chilenischen Bergbauindustrie werden in der Untersuchung anhand von drei Fallstudien die zentralen Gründe und Dimensionen dieser Unsichtbarkeit dargestellt und ihr Zusammenspiel analysiert.

    Mobilities on the Margins (2023)
    Springer Nature | Palgrave Macmillan
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-03-29
    Description: This open access book examines places on the margins and the dynamics through which a marginal position of a place is created. Specifically, it explores how places, mostly in sparsely populated areas, often perceived as immobile and frozen in time, come into being and develop through interference of everyday mobilities and creative practices that cut across the spheres of culture and nature as usually defined. Through fieldwork and case studies from areas in Iceland, Finland, Greenland, and Scotland, the book’s twelve chapters draw out the multiple relations through which places emerge, where people compose their lives as best they can with their surroundings. A special concern is to explore the links between travelling, landscape, and material culture and how places and margins are enacted through mobilities and creative practices of humans and other beings. The emphasis on mobility disturbs the perception of a place as a bounded entity and offers a useful and necessary understanding of places as mobile and fluid. Mobilities on the Margins is a novel and timely contribution to the exploration of human and more-than-human interactions in a world of increasingly fluid mobilities and insistent crises.

    Leibliche Präsenz (2023)

    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-08
    Description: In welcher Hinsicht können körperlich-leibliche Erfahrungen als Teil sozialer Aktivitäten verstanden werden und wie kann man sie sozialwissenschaftlich untersuchen? Unter Rückgriff auf den klassischen Pragmatismus, insbesondere John Dewey, und soziologische Praxistheorien leistet Alexander Antony einen Beitrag zur Beantwortung dieser Fragen. Er entwickelt eine Soziologie leiblicher Praxis, welche Sozialtheorie, methodologische Reflexion und die Erforschung der Produktion ge- und erlebter Körperlichkeit miteinander verschränkt. Empirisch widmet sich das Buch aus einer diskursanalytischen und ethnographischen Perspektive der Praktik der Atemarbeit, einem „ganzheitlichen“ Therapie- und Selbsterfahrungsangebot. Die Atemarbeit zielt darauf, eine bewusst erlebte leibliche Selbstbezüglichkeit zu etablieren, um derart körperliches, psychisches und seelisch-spirituelles Wohlbefinden zu befördern. Auf unterschiedlichen Analyseebenen spürt der Autor der Frage nach, wie individuelles leibliches Erleben und die diskursive und soziomaterielle Produktion von Erfahrungssituationen zusammenspielen. Die zentrale Einsicht: Sozialität geht buchstäblich unter die Haut. Dies ist ein Open-Access-Buch.

    Description: In diesem Open-Access-Buch werden Prozesse und Dynamiken der Zusammenarbeit zwischen verschiedenen Akteur*innen in Projekten des zivilen Friedensdienstes in Kenia, Sierra Leone und Liberia betrachtet. Das durch lokale und internationale Akteur*innen gemeinsame Bearbeiten von Konflikten und Herausforderungen der Friedenskonsolidierung hat in der deutschen Friedensarbeit eine lange Tradition und wird in einer globalisierten Welt immer wichtiger. Deswegen geht das Buch der sowohl für die Wissenschaft als auch für die Friedenspraxis relevanten Frage nach, inwiefern im Kontext der Zivilen Konfliktbearbeitung eine gleichberechtige Partnerschaft vorliegen kann. Indem sich die Arbeit auf die Chancen und Herausforderungen der Zusammenarbeit konzentriert, gelingt es, den Blick auf die alltäglichen Aktivitäten zu legen, die eigentlichen Prozesse und Reibungspunkte der Friedensarbeit zu analysieren und einen wertvollen Beitrag zur kritischen Friedensforschung und der Diskussion um Hybridität und Friction zu leisten.

    Die Resiliente Stadt (2023)
    Springer Nature | Springer Spektrum
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-04
    Description: Resilienz ist das Konzept der Stunde. Die Coronakrise, die Flutkatastrophe im Ahrtal und die Energieknappheit haben Resilienz an die Spitze der politischen Agenda gesetzt. Auch für die Stadtentwicklung gilt Resilienz als Ziel. Doch was steckt hinter diesem relativ neuen Begriff? In diesem Open-Access Band erfahren die Leser*innen wie Städte auf Krisen und Katastrophen besser vorbereitet werden müssen, um diese gut zu überstehen und gestärkt aus ihnen hervorzugehen. Die Beiträge zeigen konkrete Beispiele, wie Städte resilienter gestaltet werden können. Welche Voraussetzungen müssen dafür geschaffen werden und welche Hindernisse gibt es? Für das Ziel urbaner Resilienz bedarf es rascher, tiefgreifender und systemischer Wandlungen auf allen Ebenen, von der Gesamtstadt bis zum Quartier oder der Nachbarschaft. Der Weg dahin und die entsprechenden Instrumente sind vielfach bekannt; dennoch wird bislang nicht mit der notwendigen Entschlossenheit vorgegangen. Dieser Band enthält empirisch belegte Beispiele aus der aktuellen Stadtforschung, zeigt Konflikte auf und diskutiert Lösungen. Die Beiträge analysieren, wie bestehende Einsichten zum Handeln führen und vorhandenes Wissen klug eingesetzt werden kann. Sie verweisen auch darauf, warum existierende Lösungsvorschläge nicht zum Einsatz kommen. Anhand der Betrachtung unterschiedlicher kommunaler Handlungsfelder wie blau-grüner Infrastrukturen, Energie- und Wärmewende, Umweltstressoren, Wohnen und Gesundheit wird ein tieferes Verständnis für die resiliente Stadt entwickelt. Das Werk richtet sich an Stadt- und Regionalplaner*innen, Geograph*innen, Stadtforscher*innen und Umweltwissenschaftler*innen sowie an Verantwortliche in Kommunalpolitik und -­­­verwaltung.

    Sociology in Mexico (2023)

    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-03-29
    Description: This open access book presents a condensed history of Sociology in Mexico from its origins, through to the middle of the 19th century and up to the present day. The book analyses the interaction between sociology and the main economic, political and social change in the country, including the 1910 Mexican Revolution, the main social movements, the role of the intellectual exiles from Spain and Latin America, and the participation of women, who have often remained invisible in the history of sociology. The book explores how sociological discourse played a fundamental role in the separation of secular and public education and the search for a ‘national project’ from 1868 onwards, despite the lack of an institute of social research until 1930; how sociology became an autonomous social science, led by a few intellectuals and public figures, as it became institutionalized in universities, and the effect this had on the development of the discipline; the influence of Marxism during the 1970s; and the progression from a process of specialization after the fall of the Berlin Wall to a new trend of working in collective projects with an increasing interdisciplinary perspective in the first decades of the 21st century.

    Masterpieces on Japan by Foreign Authors (2023)
    Springer Nature | Springer Nature Singapore
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-03-26
    Description: This open access book includes forty-one chapters about foreign observers’ discourses on Japan. These include a wide range of perspectives from the travelogues of curious visitors to academic theses by scholars, which offer us a broad spectrum of contents, reflecting a variety of attitudes toward Japan. The works were written during the period from the 1850s to the 1980s, a timespan during which Japan became, in stages, more open to the outside world after a long isolation under the Tokugawa shogunate. From the perspective of “Japanology,” one can discern three distinct periods of rising interest in the country from abroad. The first tide of such interest came shortly after the opening of Japan, when various foreign travelers, including those who could not be included in this book, came over and wrote down their impressions of the country—which was, for them, a land of mystery and mystique, which had just opened its doors to them. The second wave arose at the beginning of the twentieth century, just after the Russo-Japanese War, when Japan again generated a remarkable surge of interest as a “miracle” in Asia that had pulled off the wondrous feat of defeating a white superpower. The third wave was more recent, which took place from the late 1960s to the 1980s, a period of high economic growth when the “miracle” of Japan’s remarkable economic recovery from the defeat of World War II attracted enthusiastic and curious attention from the outside world once again. It is not the intention of this book to directly highlight such historical transitions, but these forty-two brilliant mirrors (forty-one chapters, including forty-two discourses), even when looked in casually, provide us with unexpected insights and various perspectives. Shōichi Saeki (1922–2016) was Professor Emeritus, the University of Tokyo. Tōru Haga (1931–2020) was Professor Emeritus, International Research Center for Japanese Studies.

    The New Production of Expert Knowledge (2023)

    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-03-29
    Description: This Open Access book offers a novel perspective on the role of quantification in the making of education utopias through an analysis of expert knowledge and its producers. Drawing on empirical findings from the European Research Council funded project ‘International Organisations and the Rise of a Global Metrological Field’ (METRO, 2017-2022), Education, Quantification and Utopia focuses on the ways that metrological realism has constructed a well-supported epistemic infrastructure, built on relationships and practices that go beyond the mere objectivity and reliability of numerical evidence. The book’s chapters outline how the production of new forms of education expertise have led to ideational and institutional interdependencies, and ultimately the making of an intricate, fragmented and opaque knowledge and governance web.

    Researching with Proximity (2023)

    Publication Date: 2024-03-29
    Description: This open access book presents a series of speculative, experimental modes of inquiry in the present times of environmental damage that have come to be known as the age of the Anthropocene. Throughout the book authors develop more nuanced ways of engaging with the environmentally vulnerable Arctic. They counter distancing, exoticising, and even apocalyptic imaginaries of the Arctic by staying proximate with mundane places and beings of the north. The volume engages and plays with familiar tourism concepts, such as hospitality, visiting, difference, care, openness, and distance, while expanding the focus from binary and human-centric approaches of hosts and guests to questions of wellbeing among multispecies communities. The transdisciplinary group of contributors share a curiosity about how staying proximate may provide theoretical depth and epistemological openings to attend to current tensions and to diversify the ways we do and enact research. Thus, each chapter provides a methodological experiment with proximity, developing diverse ways of envisioning and storying more-than-human worlds.

    Scenes and Communities in the City (2023)

    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-03-29
    Description: ​This open access book addresses the problem of creation and reproduction processes of contemporary urban communities, as well as cultural mechanisms and factors of these processes. Rejecting both the environmental determinism, and cultural reductionism of community studies, the book assumes that the postmodern city is a space of diverse urban communities that go far beyond the traditional concept of neighbourhood as well as personal and imagined communities, and thus proposes to comprehend urban community as social practice embedded in urban space. The book applies the Theory of Social Practice and the Theory of Scenes and develops the concept of socio-cultural opportunity structures in order to explain how cultural practices of individuals and symbolic dimensions of territory interact, leading to (re)production of various forms of urban community. It is assumed that culture in general and symbolic meanings of territory in particular, play a crucial role in the process of (re)production of urban communities, that this process takes place in collective cultural consciousness and is mediated by territorially embedded cultural practices of individuals. The book overcomes theoretical gaps in classical community studies and develops a new perspective on urban communal processes based on the analysis of social practices in urban cultural scenes.

    Publication Date: 2024-03-26
    Description: This open access book suggests new ways of reading nineteenth-century African American literature environmentally. Combining insights from ecocriticism, African American studies, and Foucauldian theory, Matthias Klestil examines forms of environmental knowledge in African American writing ranging from antebellum slave narratives and pamphlets to Charlotte Forten’s journals, Booker T. Washington’s autobiographies, and Charles W. Chesnutt’s short fiction. The volume highlights how literary forms of environmental knowledge in the African American tradition were shaped by the histories of slavery and race, mainstream environmental writing traditions, and African American forms of expression and intertextuality. Turning to the Underground Railroad, debates over education and home-building, and the aesthetics of the pastoral and the georgic, Environmental Knowledge, Race, and African American Literature provides an original perspective on the African American ecoliterary tradition that uncovers new facets of canonical and understudied texts and offers new directions for ecocriticism and African American studies.

    Mission AI (2023)
    Springer Nature | Springer International Publishing
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-07
    Description: This open access book offers a strategic perspective on AI and the process of embedding it in society. ​After decades of research, Artificial Intelligence (AI) is now entering society at large. Due to its general purpose character, AI will change society in multiple, fundamental and unpredictable ways. Therefore, the Netherlands Scientific Council for Government Policy (WRR) characterizes AI as a system technology: a rare type of technologies that have a systemic impact on society. Earlier system technologies include electricity, the combustion engine and the computer. The history of these technologies provides us with useful insights about what it takes to direct the introduction of AI in society. The WRR identifies five key tasks to structurally work on this process: demystification, contextualisation, engagement, regulation and positioning. By clarifying what AI is (demystification), creating a functional ecosystem (contextualisation), involving diverse stakeholders (engagement), developing directive frameworks (regulation) and engaging internationally (positioning), societies can meaningfully influence how AI settles. Collectively, these activities steer the process of co-development between technology and society, and each representing a different path to safeguard public values. Mission AI - The New System Technology was originally published as an advisory report for the government of the Netherlands. The strategic analysis and the outlined recommendations are, however, relevant to every government and organization that aims to take up 'misson AI' and embed this newest system technology in our world.

    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-03-29
    Description: This open access book explores the relevance of the concept of technology assessment (TA) on an international and global level. Technologies play a key role in addressing global challenges such as climate change, population aging, digitization, and health. At the same time, their use increases the need for coordinated action and governance at the global level in the field of science, technology and innovation (STI). Featuring case studies on STI fields such as energy, biotechnology, artificial intelligence, and health technology, as well as TA activities at the national and international levels, this book reflects on the challenges and opportunities of global technology governance. It also provides an in-depth discussion of current governmental STI cultures and systems, societal expectations, and the policy priorities needed to achieve coordinated and effective STI intervention in policymaking and public debate at the global level. Lastly, the book promotes the establishment of a forum for a truly global dialogue of TA practitioners, fostering the articulation of their needs, knowledge and perspectives.

    Lifelong Learning, Young Adults and the Challenges of Disadvantage in Europe (2023)
    Springer Nature | Palgrave Macmillan
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-03
    Description: This open access book challenges international policy ‘groupthink’ about lifelong learning. Adult learning – too long a servant of business competitiveness – should be reimagined as central to democratic society. Young adults, especially from disadvantaged backgrounds, engage more in education and training, and learn more day-to-day at work, if provision is democratically organised and based on enduring and inclusive institutional networks, and when jobs encourage and reward the acquisition of skills. Using innovative qualitative and quantitative methods, the contributors develop a critical perspective on dominant policies, investigating – across the European Union and Australia – how ‘vulnerable’ young adults experience programmes designed to improve their ‘employability’, and how ‘skills for jobs’ policies squeeze out wider – and wiser – ideas of what education and training should do. Chapters show why some provision works for those with poor educational backgrounds, why labour market and educational institutions matter so much, how adult education can empower and expand people’s agency, and the challenges of using artificial intelligence in lifelong learning policy-making. Several investigate the pivotal role of workplace learning in organisational life, and in learning during ‘emerging adulthood’. Important comparative studies of workplace learning in the metals, retail and adult education sectors show the role of management, trade unions and social movements in young adults’ learning.

    The Power of Energy Justice & the Social Contract (2023)

    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-11
    Description: This open access book focuses on the energy sector and will make a significant contribution to its continued evolution. For many years, the energy sector has been missing a raison d’etre and now finally there are increased calls for that to be justice. Hence, this book will develop the concept of energy justice and how it needs to be formalised in a new ‘social contract’ with all stakeholders in society. The focus will be on improving legal systems at local, national and international levels while ensuring that justice is a core issue within energy law, the legal system and more broadly in society.

    Culture and Sustainability (2023)
    Springer Nature | Palgrave Macmillan
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-03-29
    Description: This Open access book brings a cultural lens, and a distinctive analytical framework, to the problem of transitioning to a sustainable, low-carbon future. The world faces a seemingly impossible hurdle – to radically alter long-established social, economic and technological systems in order to live within the biophysical limits of the globe, while ensuring a just and enduring transition. The overarching premise of this book is that this cannot be achieved without widespread cultural change. ‘We need a change in culture’ is often used rhetorically, but what does this really mean? Stephenson starts by exploring culture’s elusiveness, describing its divergent interpretations before identifying core features of culture that are common across most definitions. These characteristics form the core of the cultures framework, an extensively tested approach to studying the links between culture and sustainability outcomes. The framework makes culture an accessible concept which can be analytically applied to almost any sustainability problem. Using many examples from around the world, Stephenson illustrates how cultural stability, cultural flexibility and cultural transformation all have a part to play in the sustainability transition. She guides the reader in the use of the cultures framework for policy development and to underpin research undertaken by individuals or by multi-disciplinary teams. Clearly and engagingly written, Culture and Sustainability is essential reading for academics, students, policy makers and indeed anyone interested in a sustainable future.

    Post-Communist Transformations in Baltic Countries (2023)
    Springer Nature | Springer Nature Switzerland
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-03-28
    Description: This Open access book provides a survey of the economic, health, and somatic progress of Baltic countries during the period 1918–2018, framed by the outline of the historical-sociological theory of modern social restorations, as originally conceived by the Austrian-American comparative historian Robert A. Kann. The author reworks Kann's theory to analyse post-communist transformations in the Baltic region. The book argues that the purpose of modern social restorations is to make restoration societies safe against a recurrence of revolution. There were two waves of modern social restorations: post-Napoleonic and post-communist. Most post-Napoleonic restorations were brief, because they failed to economically and socially outperform the pre-revolutionary and post-revolutionary systems. It considers Baltic restorations as laboratory cases of second-wave modern social restorations, because they encompass a triple restoration of the nation-state, capitalism, and democracy. The book assesses the performance success of Baltic restorations by comparing economic and social progress of Baltic countries during the periods of original independence (1918–1940), foreign-imposed state socialism (1940–1990), and restored independence (since 1990). It then elaborates the criteria to assess the ultimate performance success of these restorations by 2040, when restored Baltic states may endure longer than their ancestors in 1918–1940 and the complete foreign occupations era (1940–1990). The author, an expert in historical sociology, uses extensive historical-statistical data in cross-time comparisons to develop his analysis and create future projections. This book is of wide interest to sociologists, social demographers, political scientists, and economists studying the Baltic region. This is an open access book.

    Digitisation and Low-Carbon Energy Transitions (2023)
    Springer Nature | Palgrave Macmillan
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-03-29
    Description: The world is digitising as the need for low-carbon transitions gains urgency. Decarbonising energy requires the digital process control of energy production, transmission and end use. Diversified electrification across sectors requires real-time digital coordination of distributed energy production, At the same time, digitisation is accompanied by significant increases in energy demand, partly compensated through energy efficiency gains. The emergent linkages between digitisation and decarbonisation – that constitute and enable the twin transition – are the subject of this book. The collection features authors from across the social sciences who situate digitisation and low-carbon energy transitions in the socio-technical and political economic contexts in which they unfold, to offer insights on the dynamics and contingencies of digitisation in and beyond the energy sector. This is an open access book.

    Publication Date: 2024-03-29
    Description: This open access book features contributions from a multidisciplinary team of leading and emerging scholars focused on democratization of risk assessment, management, and communication. The volume identifies and sheds light on key risk governance dilemmas related to public trust, risk perception and public participation. The first part of the book articulates the relationship among science, expertise, deliberation and public values, featuring an in-depth analysis of the concept of ‘motivated reasoning,’ and the role of trust, values and worldviews in understanding and addressing contemporary controversies over risk decision-making. The volume’s second part features eight case studies from three policy fields – energy, genomics, and public health – and a special section dedicated to vaccine decision-making for Covid-19. Chapters analyze the level, nature and mechanisms of public involvement in risk decision-making, assessing its contribution to the effectiveness and legitimacy of decisions. The case studies focus predominantly on Canada, but they draw on global scholarship and are of direct relevance for scholars and practitioners of risk governance in any country.

    The Impact of EU Politicisation on Voting Behaviour in Europe (2023)
    Springer Nature | Palgrave Macmillan
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-11
    Description: This open access book focuses on the importance that EU politicization has gained in European democracies and the consequences for voting behaviour in six countries of the EU: Belgium, Germany, Greece, Ireland, Portugal and Spain. Most of the studies which research the way the EU is being legitimised focus on the European Parliament elections. In this book we argue that to understand how EU accountability works, it is necessary to focus instead on national elections and the national political environment. Through a detailed, multimethod analysis this book establishes rigorously the paths of European accountability at the national level, its propitious contexts in the media and parliamentary debates, and whether the paths are similar from Greece to Germany. The findings have implications for both national and European Union democracy, underlining the importance that national institutions have in enabling citizens to hold the EU accountable.

    External Voting (2023)
    Springer Nature | Palgrave Macmillan
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-07
    Description: This open access book is the first monograph that brings together insights from comparative politics, political sociology, and migration studies to introduce the current state of knowledge on external voting and transnational politics. Drawing on new data gathered within the DIASPOlitic project, which created a comparative dataset of external voting results for 6 countries of origin and 17 countries of residence as well as an extensive qualitative dataset of 80 in-depth interviews with four groups of migrants, this book not only illustrates theoretical problems with empirical material, but also provides answers to previously unaddressed questions. The empirical material focuses on the European context. The Eastern Enlargement of the European Union (2004-2007) triggered a westward wave of migration from Central and Eastern European countries which faced the expansion of existing émigré communities and the emergence of new ones. As this process coincided with the expansion of migrant voting rights, the result is a large set of populous diaspora communities which can potentially have a significant impact on country electoral politics, making the study of external voting highly relevant. This book’s introduction takes stock of current research on transnational politics and external voting, presenting core puzzles. The following chapter introduces the context of intra-European migration and the political situation in Central-Eastern European sending countries. The next two sections address the empirical puzzles, drawing on new quantitative and qualitative. The conclusion takes stock of the evidence gathered, discusses the normative problem of non-resident voters enfranchisement, connects external voting to the broader debate on political remittances and finally, maps the terrain ahead for future research. This concise, empirically grounded introduction to external voting is critical reading in structuring the debate around migration and shaping research agendas for the future.

    Euphorias in Gender, Sex and Sexuality Variations (2023)
    Springer Nature | Palgrave Macmillan
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-05-09
    Description: This Open Access book uses the concept of ‘euphoria’ to investigate when, why and how marginal gender, sex and sexuality groups have positive experiences of their diverse variations even within repressive and disordering contexts. Drawing on data from multiple online surveys including a study of 2,407 LGBTQ+ people and a study of 272 people with intersex variations, it names and offers a new ecological framework for understanding participants’ influences on and barriers to euphorias, asserting the subversive possibilities of being euphorically queer, as opposed to euphoric and queer. The author argues that it is the particularities of negative internal, socio-cultural and institutional contexts for a marginal group or groups that contributes towards the possibilities that shape their potential euphoric feelings and experiences. Ultimately, she calls for a more expansive focus in gender and sexuality studies to show the complex effects of dysphoria and repression on the possibilities of pleasure and joy. This book will be of interest to scholars across Gender, Sexuality and Queer Studies.

    Publication Date: 2024-04-11
    Description: This open access book provides an analytical and critical outlook, by leading scholars, of the impact of various trends in the quality of collaboration and resulting safety outcomes that arise from the evolution of traditional integrated production within a single firm into a complex web of partnerships and supply chains. In the face of increasing fragmentation within industrial production and the associated rise in the complexity of inter-organizational communication and transaction,this book analyses causal factors such as cost pressures, globalization of demand, increasingly flexible resource allocation and work organization, changes in legal liability and the possibilities afforded by information technology. Various case studies focus on the effects of crossing boundaries between organizations, between different trades and professions and between countries, assessing the effect of variations in regulatory structures and national cultures. Furthermore, they illustrate the wide range of organizational forms to be found in high-hazard industries today and the impact, potential or real, of the variety of forms of partnership on safety and well-being at work. The contributors assess the effect of out-sourcing and of various forms of partnership and governance on safety at work and how they can be made to support the prevention of major accident hazards.

    Revolution and Witchcraft (2023)

    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-11
    Description: Ideas influence people. In particular, extremely well-developed sets of ideas shape individuals, groups, and societies in far-reaching ways. This book establishes these “idea systems” as an academic concept. Through three intense episodes of manipulation and mayhem connected to idea systems—Europe’s witch hunts, the Mao Zedong-era “revolutions,” and the early campaign of the U.S. War on Terror—this book charts the cognitive and informational matrices that seize control of people’s mentalities and behaviors across societies. Through these, the author reaches two conclusions. The first, that we are all vulnerable to the dominating influence of our own matrices of ideas and to those woven by others in the social system. The second, that even the most masterful manipulators of idea programs may lose control of the outcomes of programmatic manipulation. Amongst this analysis, sixty-plus central conceptual terminologies are provided for readers to analyze multiform idea systems that exist across space, time, and cultural contexts. This is an open access book.

    Biometric Identification, Law and Ethics (2023)
    Springer Nature | Springer International Publishing
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-04
    Description: This book is open access. This book undertakes a multifaceted and integrated examination of biometric identification, including the current state of the technology, how it is being used, the key ethical issues, and the implications for law and regulation. The five chapters examine the main forms of contemporary biometrics–fingerprint recognition, facial recognition and DNA identification– as well the integration of biometric data with other forms of personal data, analyses key ethical concepts in play, including privacy, individual autonomy, collective responsibility, and joint ownership rights, and proposes a raft of principles to guide the regulation of biometrics in liberal democracies. Biometric identification technology is developing rapidly and being implemented more widely, along with other forms of information technology. As products, services and communication moves online, digital identity and security is becoming more important. Biometric identification facilitates this transition. Citizens now use biometrics to access a smartphone or obtain a passport; law enforcement agencies use biometrics in association with CCTV to identify a terrorist in a crowd, or identify a suspect via their fingerprints or DNA; and companies use biometrics to identify their customers and employees. In some cases the use of biometrics is governed by law, in others the technology has developed and been implemented so quickly that, perhaps because it has been viewed as a valuable security enhancement, laws regulating its use have often not been updated to reflect new applications. However, the technology associated with biometrics raises significant ethical problems, including in relation to individual privacy, ownership of biometric data, dual use and, more generally, as is illustrated by the increasing use of biometrics in authoritarian states such as China, the potential for unregulated biometrics to undermine fundamental principles of liberal democracy. Resolving these ethical problems is a vital step towards more effective regulation.

    Speciesism in Biology and Culture (2023)
    Springer Nature | Springer International Publishing
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-05
    Description: This open access book explores a wide-ranging discussion about the sociopolitical, cultural, and scientific ramifications of speciesism and world views that derive from it. In this light, it integrates subjects across the natural sciences, social sciences, and humanities. The 21st-century western world is anthropocentric to an extreme; we adopt unreasonably self-centered and self-serving ideas and lifestyles. Americans consume more energy resources per person than most other nations on Earth and have little concept of how human ecology and population biology interface with global sustainability. We draw upon religion, popular culture, politics, and technology to justify our views and actions, yet remain self-centered because our considerations rarely extend beyond our immediate interests. Stepping upward on the hierarchy from “racism,” “speciesism” likewise refers to the view that unique natural kinds (species) exist and are an important structural element of biodiversity. This ideology manifests in the cultural idea that humans are distinct from and intrinsically superior to other forms of life. It further carries a plurality of implications for how we perceive ourselves in relation to nature, how we view Judeo-Christian religions and their tenets, how we respond to scientific data about social problems such as climate change, and how willing we are to change our actions in the face of evidence.

    The Ponytail (2023)
    Springer Nature | Palgrave Macmillan
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-03-29
    Description: This open access book adopts a cultural sociology of materiality to explore the hallmark of the female athlete: the ponytail. Studying a wealth of news articles about ponytails in sports and society, Broch uncovers this hairstyle’s polyvocality and argues that it is a total social phenomenon. By separating his approach from the cultural studies tradition, Broch highlights how hair is imbued with codes, narratives, and myth that allow its wearers to understand, maneuver, and criticize social gender relations in deeply personal ways. Using multiple theories about hair, bodies, myths, and icons, he creates a multidimensional method to show how icons are imitated and used. As women navigate their practical lives, health issues, and gendered expectations, the ponytail materializes their dynamic maneuvering of cultural and social environments. Sporting a ponytail—itself an embodiment of movement—is filled with a performativity of social movements: a cultural kinetics that is never apolitical.

    Safety in the Digital Age (2023)
    Springer Nature | Springer Nature Switzerland
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-11
    Description: This open access book gathers authors from a wide range of social-scientific and engineering disciplines to review challenges from their respective fields that arise from the processes of social and technological transformation taking place worldwide. The result is a much-needed collection of knowledge about the integration of social, organizational and technical challenges that need to be tackled to uphold safety in the digital age. The contributors whose work features in this book help their readers to navigate the massive increase in the capability to generate and use data in developing algorithms intended for automation of work, machine learning and next-generation artificial intelligence and the blockchain technology already in such extensive use in real-world organizations. This book deals with such issues as: · How can high-risk and safety-critical systems be affected by these developments, in terms of their activities, their organization, management and regulation? · What are the sociotechnical challenges of the proliferation of big data, algorithmic influence and cyber-security challenges in health care, transport, energy production/distribution and production of goods? Understanding the ways these systems operate in the rapidly changing digital context has become a core issue for academic researchers and other experts in safety science, security and critical-infrastructure protection. The research presented here offers a lens through which the reader can grasp the way such systems evolve and the implications for safety—an increasingly multidisciplinary challenge that this book does not shrink from addressing.

    Digital Humanism (2022)
    Springer Nature | Springer
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-14
    Description: This open access book deals with cultural and philosophical aspects of artificial intelligence (AI) and pleads for a “digital humanism”. This term is beginning to be en vogue everywhere. Due to a growing discontentment with the way digitalization is being used in the world, particularly formulated by former heroes of Internet, social media and search engine companies, philosophical as well as industrial thought leaders begin to plead for a humane use of digital tools. Yet the term “digital humanism” is a particular terminology that lacks a sound conceptual and philosophical basis and needs clarification still – and this gap is exactly filled by this book. It propagates a vision of society in which digitization is used to strengthen human self-determination, autonomy and dignity and whose time has come to be propagated throughout the world. The advantage of this book is that it is philosophically sound and yet written in a way that will make it accessible for everybody interested in the subject. Every chapters begins with a film scene illustrating a precise philosophical problem with AI and how we look at it – making the book not only readable, but even entertaining. And after having read the book the reader will have a clear vision of what it means to live in a world where digitization and AI are central technologies for a better and more humane civilization.

    Description: Die in diesem Open-Access-Buch zusammengeführten interdisziplinären Untersuchungen des „Forums Privatheit“ gehen der Frage nach, wie sich die Verwirklichungsbedingungen von Privatheit und Selbstbestimmung durch die Digitalisierung aller Lebensbereiche radikal ändern. Nahezu jede Lebensregung hinterlässt Datenspuren, ermöglicht vielfältige und intensive Datensammlungen über Menschen, unterstützt Verhaltensbeeinflussungen und verstärkt Ungleichgewichte in der Informationsmacht. Es analysiert die Auswirkungen der Digitalisierung auf den rechtlichen und politischen Schutz der Grundrechte, die ökonomischen Beziehungen, die gesellschaftliche Integration und die individuelle Entfaltung. Das Buch zeigt aber auch auf, wie Digitalisierung und ihre gesellschaftlichen Rahmenbedingungen technisch, sozial, ökonomisch und rechtlich gestaltet werden können, um Privatheit und Selbstbestimmung zu schützen.

    Islam, réforme et colonisation (2022)
    Éditions de la Sorbonne
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: Comment écrire une histoire des temps coloniaux à partir de points de vue d’Algériens ? Quels rapports établir entre la colonisation et le réformisme musulman, problème majeur de l’histoire contemporaine de l’islam ? C’est à ces deux questions, aussi centrales qu’irrésolues, que s’attaque cette étude sur l’ibadisme aux XIXe et XXe siècles. Ce livre retrace la trajectoire de la minorité des musulmans berbères et ibadites du Mzab depuis l’occupation de cette région du nord du Sahara par la France, en 1882, jusqu’à l’indépendance de l’Algérie, en 1962. Il montre la manière dont, face à la domination coloniale, des savants musulmans – les oulémas – s’emparent de l’idée de réforme en islam, pour en faire une arme de conquête du leadership et de reconfiguration de la religion et de la société locales. Par-delà le face-à-face entre la France et l’Algérie, circuler entre Le Caire, Tunis, Alger et le Mzab permet à ces lettrés de trouver de nouveaux modèles politiques, d’opérer de fortes ruptures culturelles et de s’adapter à d’importants changements socio-économiques. Trois générations successives d’oulémas repensent l’ibadisme comme foi et comme pratique et, surtout, redéfinissent les contours de leur communauté face à l’occupation étrangère, tout en lui ménageant une place dans la nation algérienne en construction. Très minoritaires (1 % à peine de la population), les ibadites se révèlent un observatoire unique des bouleversements vécus par les Algériens à la période coloniale. Au terme d’un patient travail de terrain et en archives (de langues arabe et française), Augustin Jomier renouvelle la question du réformisme musulman, révélant l’existence de sa variante ibadite et, plus largement, la métamorphose coloniale de l’islam. Il montre surtout qu’écrire l’histoire de l’Algérie en observant l’évolution des institutions sociales et culturelles antérieures à la colonisation permet de restituer la capacité d’action des colonisés, leurs manières de donner sens aux cadres coloniaux et de se réinventer dans ce contexte.

    Enfermements. Volume II (2022)
    Éditions de la Sorbonne
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-01
    Description: D’évidence, il n’y a pas d’enfermement sans règle. L’un des traits communs aux milieux clos est que ceux qui y vivent doivent obéir à des normes fortes, qu’il s’agisse de la règle monastique, de la règle hospitalière ou du règlement de prison. Reprenant l’étude comparée des enfermements religieux et carcéraux esquissée par les sciences sociales dans les années 1960 et 1970, cet ouvrage fait suite au volume Enfermements. Le cloître et la prison (vie-xviiie siècle), publié en 2011. Il explore la place des règlements et des normes dans les cloîtres comme dans les prisons. Il entend montrer toutes les nuances de cette histoire dans la longue durée, entre le ive et le xixe siècle, et en Europe, des îles Britanniques à la péninsule Ibérique, en passant par l’espace germanique. L’ouvrage interroge donc la nature de la règle et historicise sa mise en texte. Il compare les manières de produire l’obéissance dans les milieux clos et les dérèglements qui y surgissent. L’un des enjeux de cette étude des règles et dérèglements en milieux clos est de mieux comprendre et de réévaluer le rôle que la discipline religieuse a pu jouer dans la mise en place des systèmes carcéraux occidentaux.

    The Sanitation Triangle (2022)
    Springer Nature | Springer Singapore
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-01
    Description: This open access book deals with global sanitation, where SDG 6.2 sets a target of enabling access to sanitation services for all, but has not yet been achieved in low- and middle-income countries. The transition from the United Nations MDGs to the SDGs requires more consideration based on the socio-cultural aspects of global sanitation. In other words, equitable sanitation for those in vulnerable situations could be based on socio-cultural contexts. Sanitation is a system that comprises not only a latrine but also the works for the treatment and disposal of human waste. Sanitation systems do not function by themselves but have significance only through social management. The process of decision-making also largely depends on socio-cultural conditions, and the importance of sanitation needs to be socially acknowledged. The health benefits of sanitation improvement—among the significant contributions of sanitation—also need to be considered in the socio-cultural milieu. Further, the social-culture itself is affected, and potentially even created, by sanitation. In this context, more progress on the improvement of sanitation requires a more holistic approach across disciplines. In this book, we present the concept of the Sanitation Triangle, which considers the interconnections of health, materials, and socio-culture in sanitation, as a holistic approach, and the case studies based on the Sanitation Triangle by diverse disciplines such as Cultural Anthropology, Development Studies, Health Sciences, Engineering, and Science Communication. By the deep theoretical examinations and inter-dialogues between the different disciplines, this book explores the potentialities of inter-disciplinary studies on global sanitation.

    Publication Date: 2024-04-01
    Description: Les montagnards sont-ils différents ? Sont-ils façonnés par l’espace qu’ils arpentent ? D’où vient leur esprit de famille ou, si l’on préfère, leur goût pour les clans ? On a vu parfois dans les montagnes archaïques et solitaires des réservoirs de prêtres, on a dit qu’elles hébergeaient facilement les maquisards, les insoumis, les sorciers, les juifs, les cathares... Vingt-neuf chercheurs sont allés voir de près. Ils ont bien découvert des familles de prêtres, de ces clans qui donnent à leurs cadets les bases de l’écriture et de la lecture : de quoi en faire en effet des prêtres, mais aussi des colporteurs et des instituteurs... Ils ont mis en valeur la singularité de ces clergés montagnards : prêts à se sacrifier pour leurs familles, pour leurs ancêtres, pour leur foi, pour un absolu, dans toutes les religions, et surtout en cas de faiblesse des pouvoirs supérieurs. Ils ont vu que ces familles devaient trouver en elles-mêmes les règles de leur survie : des subsistances pour le corps, les écritures pour rendre des comptes ; des symboles pour rêver, des rites pour échapper à l’angoisse et d’autres pour maintenir la vie à tout prix. Espace fragile, isolé, grandiose, la montagne s’impose à l’homme dans ses excès. Les hommes des montagnes croient toujours qu’ils ne sont pas tout à fait comme les autres, même et surtout quand ils sont en plaine.

    Description: Diese Open-Access-Publikation ist ein Plädoyer, das Verständnis von Themenkarrieren als integralen Bestandteil der Wissenschaft zu vertiefen und für die Reflexion wissenschaftlicher und planerischer Praxis zu nutzen. Welchen Gegenständen die Wissenschaft besondere Aufmerksamkeit beimisst, unterliegt einem dynamischen Wandel. Einige Themen, die lange Zeit Desinteresse und Ablehnung hervorriefen, rücken schlagartig in den Fokus um anschließend wieder abnehmende Aufmerksamkeit zu verzeichnen. Weder die Ursache noch der Zeitraum der anfänglichen Ignoranz, des abrupten Durchbruchs oder der anschließenden Ermüdung kann jedoch aus „rein wissenschaftlichen“ bzw. vermeintlich „objektiven“ Selektionskriterien erklärt werden. Wie also entstehen Themen in der Wissenschaft? Anhand der Themenkarrieren Schrumpfende Städte und Klimawandel wird untersucht, wie Aufmerksamkeit für ein Thema entsteht, welche sozialen Mechanismen dem Themenverlauf zugrunde liegen und welche Auswirkungen Themenkarrieren auf die planungswissenschaftliche Disziplin haben. Hierbei werden quantitative Methoden der Bibliometrie und der Netzwerkanalyse mit qualitativen Methoden der empirischen Sozialforschung in einer institutionalistischen Perspektive vereint.

Historien de l’Algérie et homme de terrain, Omar Carlier a profondément renouvelé l’approche du politique en Afrique du Nord : venus d’Algérie, de France et d’ailleurs, ces vingt-huit historiens enquêtent, suivant les chemins qu’il a défrichés, sur les lieux, les événements et les objets grâce auxquels il a éclairé d’un jour nouveau notre compréhension de la région et des enjeux politiques, sociaux et culturels qui l’animent. Ces études offrent ainsi de nouvelles pistes pour comprendre la guerre d’indépendance algérienne, revenant sur les origines du Front de libération nationale, sur les mouvements et engagements militants, à Alger comme en métropole, et sur les chants et les festivités à l’heure de l’indépendance. Car, dans ce livre, l’Algérie est saisie dans son ensemble : à l’échelle du Maghreb comme au sein du monde ottoman, parmi les empires coloniaux et dans la période de l’après-indépendance – quand l’histoire coloniale pèse, encore et toujours.

    Les retours (2022)

    Publication Date: 2024-04-01
    Description: « Je suis convaincu que les lecteurs de cette ego-histoire attendent de ma part le récit d’un retour au pays, la rassurante trajectoire d’un fils d’immigrés espagnols devenu un médiéviste français de l’Espagne. Pourquoi pas. Mais les chemins du retour ne sont pas toujours les plus droits, et ramènent-ils toujours au point de départ attendu ? » Loin de proposer l’histoire linéaire de sa trajectoire, François Foronda la soumet ici à un exercice d’auto-analyse, en historien, sur la base de ses archives personnelles. Davantage que des retours, cet exercice le conduit à réaliser un voyage fait d’un constant va-et-vient entre quatre lieux de mémoire, deux pays, le passé et le présent, la vie académique et la vie personnelle, que l’auteur tient également pour une vie majuscule. Et une forme de réconciliation libératrice se fait jour au bout de ce voyage, pratiquement circulaire, dans l’arrière-pays retrouvé de la vocation historienne de l’auteur.

    Description: Am Beispiel zweier konkurrierender allgemein- und berufsbildender Gesundheitsausbildungen - die Fachmittelschule mit Berufsfeld Gesundheit und die berufliche Erstausbildung Fachfrau/-mann Gesundheit - zeigt diese Open Access Studie, wie Qualität von Bildung sozial konstruiert wird. Die Ergebnisse veranschaulichen die Andersartigkeit der Lehr- und Wissenskulturen und tragen damit zur Erklärung ausbildungsprogrammspezifischer Bildungsverläufe sowie stark differierender Übergangsquoten in tertiäre Bildungsgänge bei. Ausgehend davon wird die Frage der Gleichwertigkeit allgemein- und berufsbildender Gesundheitsausbildungen in den Fokus gerückt und die daraus resultierenden Herausforderungen für die Rekrutierung des Fachkräftenachwuchses in verschiedenen Gesundheitsberufen diskutiert. Konzeptionell schlägt die Studie eine neue Perspektive auf die institutionelle Segregation von Allgemein- und Berufsbildung vor. Mit dem theoretischen Originalbeitrag der empirischen Rekonstruktion einer feldspezifischen Ausdifferenzierung der häuslichen Konvention wird das Konzept der Qualitätskonventionen im Hinblick auf den Bedarf einer konventionensoziologisch angeleiteten (Berufs-)Bildungsforschung weiterentwickelt.; Am Beispiel zweier konkurrierender allgemein- und berufsbildender Gesundheitsausbildungen - die Fachmittelschule mit Berufsfeld Gesundheit und die berufliche Erstausbildung Fachfrau/-mann Gesundheit - zeigt diese Open Access Studie, wie Qualität von Bildung sozial konstruiert wird.

    Description: Pourquoi des colloques ? Pour qui ? Que s’y passe-t-il de si intéressant que les gens y accourent de tous les horizons de notre espace social ? Comment les préparer, les organiser, les gérer, les animer pour en faire jaillir les idées les plus neu­ves ? A quel niveau appréhender les résultats : à celui des apprentissages individuels, des straté­gies des grandes organisations, de l’opinion publi­que ? C’est à ces questions que répond cet ouvrage s’adressant aussi bien aux « colloqueurs » amateurs qu’aux managers chevronnés des réunions internationales, à l’historien qu’au sociologue, au psychologue social ou au pédagogue. Le véritable mérite de l’auteur est d’avoir montré que l’ambiguïté du colloque simultanément au service de la machine technocratique et de caté­gories sociales ou professionnelles aspirant à la participation sociale, est la raison essentielle de son extraordinaire expansion ces dernières décennies

    Langue et histoire (2022)
    Éditions de la Sorbonne

    Publication Date: 2024-04-01
    Description: Depuis Saussure, nous savons tous que la langue est la plus importante de toutes les institutions d’une société, celle sans laquelle, précisément, il n’y aurait pas de société. Elle est pourtant trop peu étudiée par l’historien : si ses sources sont sacrées, que fait-il de la langue dans laquelle elles lui sont parvenues ? Sans doute lui prête-t-il la plus grande attention, s’il doit éditer un texte ou si celui-ci lui oppose, par sa difficulté ou par les problèmes d’authenticité qu’il soulève, une résistance : l’historien ne répugne pas à se faire philologue, dans la mesure de ses moyens, puisqu’il s’agit là d’une des composantes requises de l’érudition académique ; de même, sa culture lui permet souvent de juger du style ou des qualités « littéraires » d’un texte. Mais il va plus rarement au-delà, alors que des approches pluridisciplinaires ouvrant la voie à des analyses linguistique, sociolinguistique ou logo- métrique lui apporteraient des informations historiques du plus haut intérêt. De Méroé au Burundi, des discours des présidents de la République française aux chartes royales éthiopiennes, des démonstratifs en moyen fiançais au bilinguisme gréco-romain en passant par les glissements du « français du roi » au picard ou aux langues du midi, le présent volume, reflet partiel d’une fructueuse rencontre organisée par l’École doctorale de Paris 1 en 2006, offre une dizaine d’exemples de ces approches, ainsi qu’une mise en perspective générale de la place qu’occupe la langue dans les préoccupations des historiens depuis une cinquantaine d’années. Autant qu’à la réflexion méthodologique, il incite à la mise en commun des savoirs et des compétences entre historiens et linguistes, pour que la langue soit prise enfin par l’historien pour ce qu’elle est, l’un des éléments essentiels de ses sources.

    Les historiens croient-ils aux mythes ? (2022)

    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-01
    Description: Ce volume est le fruit d’une réflexion collective des historiens et historiennes de l’université Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne. Il en partage donc les caractères : refus des cloisonnements, choix de la longue durée qui court ici de la Babylonie antique au temps présent, participation de jeunes chercheurs comme d’historiens confirmés. Il interroge l’usage que les historiens font du « mythe » qu’ils considèrent autant sous sa dimension restreinte de « récit fondateur » et transhistorique, que sous son acception plus moderne et sociologique, qui a trait à quelques motifs imaginaires partagés. Il y est donc question d’Amazones et de vampires, de Déluge et de Révolution, de royaumes fabuleux, de sorcières et d’âge d’or de la civilisation. Plus que le rapport entre le vrai et le faux, c’est la rationalité et l’historicité de ces croyances du passé en leur temps que ce livre s’attache à sonder.

    Faire société (2022)
    Éditions de la Sorbonne
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-01
    Description: Faire société, c’est l’ambition des acteurs et des actrices au cœur de cet ouvrage. Par leur engagement philanthropique, ils tissent un lien avec les classes populaires et cherchent à transformer la société. Leurs origines sont plus variées que ne le laissent penser les recherches qui les présentent souvent comme issus des hautes sphères. Cette diversité apparaît aussi dans les motivations à l’origine de l’engagement charitable. Voie d’accès aux débats publics pour les femmes et les étrangers privés de droits politiques, la philanthropie attire également les élites conservatrices genevoises qui ont perdu la mainmise sur l’État à la suite de la Révolution de 1846, ainsi que les représentants du nouveau pouvoir. Ce livre n’examine pas seulement le discours des philanthropes, il analyse également leurs pratiques sur le terrain et leurs stratégies qui visent à inculquer aux classes populaires des valeurs qui leur sont chères − l’épargne, la responsabilité individuelle, l’ardeur au travail ou la répartition genrée des rôles. En combinant méthodes quantitatives et qualitatives, cet ouvrage restitue la philanthropie genevoise dans sa complexité. Saisie dans sa globalité, à l’échelle d’une ville en pleine mutation, l’action philanthropique se révèle un excellent observatoire de la société, et ce d’autant plus que les Genevois sont très actifs dans les réseaux réformateurs transnationaux. Alors que la philanthropie connaît de nos jours un regain d’intérêt marqué, ce livre offre des clés pour comprendre les ambiguïtés des discours et des pratiques liés à ce phénomène.

    Description: Il existe toujours un décalage entre la découverte d’un nouveau monde et la « saisie » de celui-ci par l’ancien. Souvent les contemporains sont préocupés par des questions plus immédiates, et le récit de la découverte devient anecdote merveilleusement étrange. Jouent alors un rôle décisif pour fixer les images premières la curiosité, la faculté d’observation, la cartographie. Peu à peu s’établit une nouvelle vision du monde. En Europe, à partir de la Renaissance, il en fut ainsi. Mais ce continent, dont le regard sur le monde a changé, s’est aussi transformé du fait des découvertes. Alors, après ses mutations, se reconnaît-elle encore aujourd’hui en face des mondes qu’elle a découverts et qui, de leur côté aussi, l’ont découverte ?

    Description: Se promener le long d’une plage ; heurter une bouteille jetée à la mer par un inconnu, il y a près de cinquante ans ; l’ouvrir, piqué par la curiosité ; se croire, au départ, le simple passeur d’une histoire qui n’est pas la sienne ; puis, se laisser gagner par la lecture de cet ouvrage inédit ; mener des recherches pour comprendre : voilà mon histoire. Cette bouteille que je n’ai pas eu le courage de rejeter, ce sont deux gros volumes verts cousus main dont j’apprends fortuitement l’existence par un courrier, le 22 décembre 2001. Retrouvées dans le grenier d’un pasteur du sud-est de la France, ces cinq cents pages écrites en castillan resurgissent après cinquante ans d’oubli. Elles s’avèrent être l’un des premiers témoignages, capital, du système concentrationnaire franquiste. Sans le vouloir, je suis happé par le mystère de cette présence du passé qui est mémoire. Qui est l’auteur ? Quelle est l’histoire de ce manuscrit ? Par quel étrange chemin s’est-il retrouvé sur mon bureau ? Que raconte ce récit qui s’affiche comme un roman historique ? Que puis-je en faire en historien ? Pendant dix ans, je mène une enquête décousue, pleine de pièges et de rebondissements. Unique lecteur de cette œuvre oubliée, je comprends bientôt que, malgré moi, je fais partie de cette histoire. Mais alors, comment la raconter sans remettre en question ce que je croyais savoir de mon métier d’historien ? Histoire d’une enquête où l’enquêteur devient l’enquêté.

    Pour une histoire sociale et politique de l’économie (2022)
    Éditions de la Sorbonne
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: Cet ouvrage, en rendant hommage aux travaux de Michel Margairaz, résulte d’un travail collectif d’historiens français et étrangers qui pensent et interrogent l’économie au prisme de l’histoire sociale et politique. Sont ainsi soulignées la variété, le dynamisme et la richesse des approches et des objets de cette discipline ainsi que l’évolution de ces pratiques. Le livre témoigne aussi de l’importance des relations construites entre les chercheurs tout au long d’une vie universitaire. Trois thèmes principaux structurent ce volume. Le premier s’articule autour des relations entre les finances, les banques et l’État; le second porte sur les politiques économiques de la Première Guerre mondiale à la fin du xxe siècle en France, en Italie et en Suède. Le troisième aborde les relations entre les organisations patronales et ouvrières et l’État. Chacun des trente-deux auteurs ont de ce fait analysé les politiques publiques en articulant l’économie, les institutions et le politique. Faire de l’histoire économique aujourd’hui suppose aussi de prendre en compte les évolutions que la discipline a connues depuis un demi-siècle. Michel Margairaz, dans ce qui n’est pas une postface nous dit-il, retrace cette histoire en insistant sur le fait qu’elle se situe au carrefour des sciences sociales en perpétuel renouvellement, en nouant de nouvelles alliances.

    Publication Date: 2024-04-01
    Description: Création de la chrétienté occidentale médiévale, l’université constitue par nature un objet historique qui doit être abordé dans le cadre européen. Au-delà des clivages nationaux, l’histoire des universités, depuis leurs fondations jusqu’aux crises contemporaines, permet en effet de dégager les lignes de force de l’histoire culturelle de l’Europe, à travers la mutation de son enseignement supérieur. C’est le but de la vingtaine de communications réunies ici dans une perspective délibérément transpériodique et internationale. L’institution universitaire est ainsi examinée à la lumière de quatre problématiques qui traversent l’ensemble de son histoire l’insertion des universités dans la société, leurs rapports avec les pouvoirs, leurs modèles de représentation et la construction d’un espace spécifique. Cet ouvrage croise donc plusieurs champs historiques, depuis la sociologie jusqu’à l’histoire intellectuelle en passant par l’histoire politique et institutionnelle. De la France à la Scandinavie en passant par l’Allemagne, les Pays-Bas et l’Italie, c’est un panorama véritablement européen qui s’offre à tous ceux qui s’intéressent à la genèse de nos universités.

    Autonomie, autonomies (2022)
    Éditions de la Sorbonne
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: À partir de sources très diversifiées et rigoureusement exploitées, ce livre analyse la politique universitaire mise en œuvre aux lendemains de 1968 sous Charles de Gaulle, Georges Pompidou et Valéry Giscard d’Estaing. Pour comprendre cette période, où l’autonomie devient le maître-mot des discours sur l’enseignement supérieur, l’auteur a pris pour fil directeur l’action de l’historien René Rémond. Proche des élites gouvernementales et président de l’université Paris X-Nanterre entre 1971 et 1976, il se situe alors au cœur du processus de réforme. Avec empathie mais sans parti-pris, l’auteur explore les modalités selon lesquelles son « héros », en interaction - et parfois en compétition - avec les entourages ministériels, cherche à agir dans le jeu complexe de la politique de l’enseignement supérieur. Ce faisant, il éclaire d’une manière concrète et saisissante la combinatoire d’influences, de relations individuelles et de contingences qui détermine l’action publique. Il permet aussi de saisir un aspect déterminant, bien qu’occulté, du rayonnement d’un grand universitaire français, souvent réduit à La droite en France, ou à ses commentaires avisés de la vie politique et électorale. Cette étude fouillée et enlevée est essentielle pour qui souhaite comprendre les enjeux et les débats actuels sur l’université. Elle constitue une contribution de premier plan non seulement à l’histoire et à la sociologie de l’enseignement supérieur, mais aussi à la connaissance des prises de décision sous la Ve République ainsi qu’à l’histoire de la vie intellectuelle française.

    Feeling Political (2022)
    Springer Nature | Palgrave Macmillan
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: Historicizing both emotions and politics, this open access book argues that the historical work of emotion is most clearly understood in terms of the dynamics of institutionalization. This is shown in twelve case studies that focus on decisive moments in European and US history from 1800 until today. Each case study clarifies how emotions were central to people’s political engagement and its effects. The sources range from parliamentary buildings and social movements, to images and speeches of presidents, from fascist cemeteries to the International Criminal Court. Both the timeframe and the geographical focus have been chosen to highlight the increasingly participatory character of nineteenth- and twentieth-century politics, which is inconceivable without the work of emotions.

    Publication Date: 2024-04-01
    Description: Rivalries and conflicts have left a deep mark on the history of relations between France and Britain and still hold a major place in the historiography. The study of personal links, networks and inter­dependencies within an intellectual context marked by the influence of social sciences may open up some new prospects and help to reconstruct some cross-Channel exchanges which the documentation does not always allow us to grasp directly Thanks to comparative work, it may also renew the understanding of some phenomenons which Trench and British historians have tended to study in isolation. The round table organised by the Groupe de Recherche “France-îles Britanniques " (CNRS 2136) in Glasgow in May 2002 took up this theme: the sixteen papers gathered in this volume analyse notions such as the individual and kinship, friendship, neighbourhood relationships, courts, noble entourages, affinities and clienteles, and literary circles, using sources as different as public acts, correspondence, heraldry, iconography, narrative sources or diaries. The deliberate choice of a “longue durée", from the Middle Ages to the twentieth century, also makes possible the confrontation of contrasting social evolutions and historiographical methods. The use of different grids of interpretation, whether network analysis or prosopography brings to light networks that would otherwise remain hidden, or which were activated only in specific circumstances, such as succession: it also enables the historian to get a better understanding of developments such as scientific invention or the circulation of political ideas. It is indeed at the conjunction of different approaches and experiences that the concept of “network” may be most effective.

    Deforming the Reform (2022)

    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-03-29
    Description: This open access book presents an actor-centered study on Europeanization, based on the assumption that EU-driven reforms are highly dependent on the behavior and interests of the key domestic actors. Whether or not a state pursues a European and democratic agenda depends on domestic lawmakers. Further, political elites are pre-eminent in deciding on the nature, form and content of any law, and on the extent to which the rule of law is actually enforced. Elites can overcome structural or institutional barriers that stand in the way of achieving their goals. The empirical study on Romania presented here lends this observation a more profound meaning: it shows how, in contexts where high level corruption is the norm rather than the exception, self-serving political elites cannot be expected to genuinely commit to adopting sound anti-corruption reform. The book is an inquiry into the motivations that drive legislators to make particular decisions, but also into the structural characteristics and dynamics of the elite that invite a selfish rather than responsible and responsive behaviour. This publication was supported by funds from the Publication Fund for Open Access Monographs of the Federal State of Brandenburg, Germany.

    L’offre d’école (2022)

    Publication Date: 2024-04-01
    Description: In the 19th century, industrialisation and the systematic elaboration of educational policies were two concomitant phenomena; however, only the former is analysed usually in its international dimensions. For educational policies have until now been scarcely considered except front within a strictly national context, aiming to produce stereotypes and perpetuate myths firmly embedded in the collective consciousness of each individual country. In fact, these policies have assumed a supra-national character which urgently calls for a comparative approach. Only a just appreciation of the different factors - national and supra-national - and of the motivations both inside and outside the educational sector, will allow us to understand the conditions of their evolution and their chances of survival in the future. The selection of papers that are to be found in this book - papers presented at the Sevres International Conference on the occasion of the centinary of the French educational laws - wishes to help in the unravelling of this entanglement of factors, making the reader aware of what, in his intellectual and moral education, binds him to his own nation and what it is that makes him the citizen of a wider educational community.

    Le fond de l’œuvre (2022)

    Description: Selon certaines habitudes visuelles occidentales fixes, le fond s'opposerait à la forme ou à la figure, l’avant au fond. Pour un tableau, une sculpture ou même pour une architecture, le rapport entre le fond et la forme qui s’y découpe révèle un certain ordre du monde symbolique, du moins signifiant. Or, cette hiérarchisation se voit précisément bouleversée aux XVIIe et XVIIIe siècles et l’inscription dans une compréhension du monde n’est plus si évidente. L'instabilité engendrée par ce renversements de valeurs met en lumière l’ébranlement des consciences de la seconde modernité, et cela sur plusieurs registres : spirituel, mais aussi politique ou encore sensible. Cette publication entend cerner la manière dont le questionnement sur la notion de fond dans les arts visuels s’articule à des enjeux plus généraux et propres à la période moderne, dont la sécularisation. Aborder une œuvre par le truchement du fond met donc en lumière grand nombre de ses spécificités.

    Enfermements. Volume I (2022)
    Éditions de la Sorbonne
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-01
    Description: Dès le Moyen Âge, le claustrum et le carcer, le cloître et la prison, ont été associés. Exaltant l’ascèse monastique, Bernard de Clairvaux, pour ne citer que lui, comparait déjà le monastère à une prison ouverte, où seule la crainte de Dieu retenait les moines. Aujourd’hui, les liens entre cloître et prison sont encore perceptibles dans le site exceptionnel de Clairvaux, ancienne abbaye cistercienne fondée au xiie siècle et transformée en centre pénitentiaire au xixe siècle. Dans les années 1960-1970, penseurs des institutions répressives et historiens du monachisme ont âprement polémiqué sur l’analogie entre cloître et prison. Afin de dépasser les apories de ces controverses et de renouer les fils du dialogue interrompu entre historiens du cloître et historiens de la prison, cet ouvrage propose une histoire commune des deux enfermements. Il explore les conceptions et les valeurs associées à l’enfermement, les particularités de la vie en milieu clos, la sociologie des groupes exposés à l’enfermement, dans l’ensemble de l’Europe, de l’Espagne à la Saxe et de l’Angleterre à l’Italie, entre le vie et le xviiie siècle. Faisant appel aux meilleurs spécialistes internationaux de ces questions, il privilégie les vues synthétiques plutôt que les études de cas. Il dessine enfin les renouvellements historiographiques intervenus depuis quatre décennies dans les domaines de l’histoire du droit, de l’histoire sociale et de l’histoire religieuse.
