Die Rotary Clubs im Nationalsozialismus
In über 300 Biografien erinnert das Buch an Rotary-Mitglieder, die unter dem Druck des Nazi-Regimes aufgrund ihrer Herkunft oder politischen Einstellung aus deutschen und österreichischen Clubs ausgeschlossen wurden Konrad Adenauer, Thomas Mann, Karl Wolfskehl - sie alle waren Anfang des 20. Jahrhunderts Mitglieder, teilweise Gründungsmitglieder, deutscher Rotary-Clubs - und sie alle wurden nach der Machübernahme der Nationalsozialisten aus den Clubs ausgeschlossen: der Demokrat Adenauer galt den Nazis als politischer Gegner, Manns Ehefrau hatte jüdische Wurzeln und Wolfskehl war selbst Jude. So wurden unter dem immensen Druck des Nazi-Regimes ab 1933 zahlreiche Rotarier aus den Clubs gedrängt, viele von den Nazis verfolgt, in den Suizid getrieben oder ermordet. Rotary hat sein Agieren und Lavieren in dieser Zeit lange zu verdrängen versucht. Angeregt durch die Forschungen einer rotarischen Expertengruppe, wird dies hier anhand von Einzelschicksalen und in einer ausführlichen Einleitung dargestellt, und die verdrängte Geschichte der deutschen und österreichischen Rotary Clubs im Nationalsozialismus erstmals umfassend aufgearbeitet.
Introduction to Representation Theory
Very roughly speaking, representation theory studies symmetry in linear spaces. It is a beautiful mathematical subject which has many applications, ranging from number theory and combinatorics to geometry, probability theory, quantum mechanics, and quantum field theory. The goal of this book is to give a ``holistic'' introduction to representation theory, presenting it as a unified subject which studies representations of associative algebras and treating the representation theories of groups, Lie algebras, and quivers as special cases. Using this approach, the book covers a number of standard topics in the representation theories of these structures. Theoretical material in the book is supplemented by many problems and exercises which touch upon a lot of additional topics; the more difficult exercises are provided with hints. The book is designed as a textbook for advanced undergraduate and beginning graduate students. It should be accessible to students with a strong background in linear algebra and a basic knowledge of abstract algebra.
Constructions
The current trend for constructing experimental structures is now an international phenomenon. It has been taken up worldwide by design professionals, researchers, educators and students alike. There exist, however, distinct and significant tendencies within this development that require further investigation. This issue of AD takes on this task by examining one of the most promising trajectories in this area, the rise of intensely local architectures. In his seminal essay of 1983, Kenneth Frampton redefined Critical Regionalism by calling for an intensely local approach to architectural design. Today, Frampton’s legacy is regaining relevance for a specific body of work in practice and education focused on the construction of experimental structures. Could this ultimately provide the seeds for a compelling and alternative approach to sustainable design?

Die Raumfahrt der Gesellschaft
Alle Menschen sind Astronaut*innen – nachzulesen nicht nur bei Buckminster Fuller, sondern auch bei Michel Serres. Aber was bedeutet es, die Raumfahrt als gesellschaftliches Projekt zu reflektieren? Dieser Frage gehen die Beiträger*innen des Bandes im Hinblick auf die zwei wichtigen Dimensionen Wirtschaft und Kultur nach, die in Verbindung miteinander betrachtet werden. Die Analysen verdeutlichen, wie sich das technische Großprojekt der Raumfahrt in die Gesellschaft eingeschrieben hat, und lassen schlussfolgern, dass die Raumfahrt kein reines Elitenprojekt bleiben kann.

Total Latin American Architecture
A selected, fully open, and deep assemblage, that carries the explicit intent of outlining, conceptual and practical verifications, on critical views and specific projects, concerning the actual architecture in the Latin American territory. The book intends to communicate a targeted objective, to circumscribe a segment, a series of observations and actions in architecture. However, it is a selected, fully open, and deep fragment, outlining conceptual and practical verifications on critical views and concrete projects, concerning the actual, extensive world of architecture in the Latin American territory, and in the first years of the new century. It is a sequence of topical segments organized as an unsystematic series and through a number of different projects in each case: the single family house; searches on bigger scales; poetical structures; topics under consideration; a look over laboratories; terrain, landscape and topography; covering folk factors; and the volumetric reasoning and physical features. A selected and deep assemblage of the current architecture in the Latin American territory.
