Why do people turn their homes into a restaurant for a day? Why do people volunteer for scientific or community projects without getting paid? How can one get people actively involved in social projects? Social Design Cookbook uncovers what it takes to organise successful and sustainable social initiatives. It features comprehensive case studies of a broad, international selection of social cooperative formats that have been successful in their local communities and have also been successfully replicated in other locations and contexts. By looking at an array of such practices, the authors have developed the Social Design Canvas, which can be used to analyse and design new forms of social co...

Doch hat gerade diese Radikalität häufig theologische Neuaufbrüche beflügelt. Insbesondere zu Beginn des 20. Jahrhunderts wirkte die Kreuzestheologie in der evangelischen Theologie befreiend und entfaltete sich seitdem in vielfältigen Perspektiven. Der Sammelband rekonstruiert die "Aufbrüche" in ihren kulturellen und sozialen Kontexten und beleuchtet ihre systematische und homiletische Stoßkraft an zahlreichen Beispielen bis in die Gegenwart. Besondere Berücksichtigung findet Hans Joachim Iwand (1899–1960), der die Relevanz der Kreuzestheo...
