Garten, Gefängnis, Fotoatelier
Wie gelang Frauen der Zugang zu Berufen, die nach den gesellschaftlichen Vorstellungen des 19. Jahrhunderts Männern vorbehalten sein sollten? Welche Rolle spielte die Frauenbewegung bei der Professionalisierung dieser Berufstätigkeiten? Mittels welcher Argumente sollte bekräftigt werden, dass Frauen für diese Berufe unverzichtbar und notwendig seien? Welche Gegenstimmen und Reaktionen traten ihnen entgegen? Wie verwoben sich Klassen- und Geschlechterfragen in den öffentlich geführten Berufsdebatten? Am Beispiel von Gärtnerinnen, Fotografinnen, Gefängnisbeamtinnen und Haushaltungslehrerinnen verdeutlicht Mette Bartels die historischen Wurzeln aktueller Debatten um weibliche Berufstätigkeit, Emanzipation und Gleichberechtigung.
Durchbruch der Moderne?
Die Suche nach den Ursprüngen der »modernen Welt« führt immer wieder ins 19. Jahrhundert zurück. Doch was ist das Besondere an diesem »Schlüsseljahrhundert«? Inwiefern brauchen wir es, um unsere Gegenwart zu verstehen? Gibt es Parallelen zwischen dem 19. Jahrhundert und der Welt des 21. Jahrhunderts? Renommierte Historikerinnen und Historiker nehmen die Zeit zwischen 1789 und 1914 in diesem Buch neu in den Blick und loten anhand unterschiedlicher Themen und Methoden das Spezifische des 19. Jahrhunderts aus: die Rolle von Revolutionen und Emotionen, von städtischen Konflikten, von Monarchie und Liberalismus, von Religion und Attentaten, von Geschlechterverhältnissen und globalhistorischen Zusammenhängen.
In the Shadow of the Member States
This book provides practice-oriented insights into the agency of two previously underestimated actors in Southeast Asian regionalism: the ASEAN Secretariat and ASEAN’s dialogue partners. In doing so, it offers an inside view of the policy-making processes in the ASEAN Political-Security and the ASEAN Economic Community, analyzing the interplay and agency by both actors in agenda setting, formulation, decision making, implementation, and monitoring. Drawing on a trove of novel data, including never-before analyzed sources and numerous interviews with ASEAN insiders, the book showcases a number of concrete cases of policy making, including competition and counterterrorism policies. The chapters focusing on the ASEAN Secretariat address aspects related to institutional autonomy, capacity, and reforms within the bureaucracy. In the chapters on ASEAN‘s dialogue partners, the book provides insights into the bilateral management of institutional support programs, as well as the impacts of support on ASEAN‘s policy-making processes.
Poetry and Contemporary Visual Culture / Lyrik und Zeitgenössische Visuelle Kultur
This book's goal is to determine the significance of visual culture in the production of contemporary poetry and to sound out the insights poetry might generate into contemporary visual culture. Its main hypothesis is that poetry holds considerable potential for (post-)digital language, image, and media criticism. The visual dimensions of recent poetry encompass, for instance, kinetic writing in digital poetry, visual elements in social media poems, and (spoken and written) text-image interactions in poetry films as well as in book poetry. The articles examine these medial correlations and their political implications by asking how visual culture is applied, exposed, and debated in poetry. T...
Re-thinking Assimilation and Integration
How does immigration transform societies and relations between ethnic and racial groups? This volume brings together scholars working at the cutting-edge of theory and empirical research on integration and assimilation in the US and Europe. It is dedicated to the life and works of Richard Alba, who has done so much to re-invigorate and establish ideas about integration and assimilation. The book aims to open a dialogue on the continuing value of assimilation and integration for studying social change in an era of increasing ethno-racial diversity in Western liberal democracies. Assimilation and integration, and the understandings of societal change that they theorise, depict, and empirically...
