The Ambiguity of Evil
The period of German National Socialism remains one of the most challenging chapters of twentieth century history. The moral failures that led to the tragedy continue to confound both the casual student of history, as well as the accomplished scholar. A multitude of volumes has been published seeking to make sense of the events. Each generation of authors struggles toward new levels of analysis and deeper insight.This book provides a fresh perspective by telling the story of a small, liberal religious congregation and its efforts to navigate Germany's treacherous political and ethical landscape in the 1930s and 1940s.Drawing on congregational records from this period, his own family story, as well as the work of historians and theologians from both Germany and the United States, the author invites the attentive reader to decide to what extent the issues and events described are unique to twentieth century Germany, and to what extent they provide relevant lessons for citizens of the world today.
Teacher Shortage in International Perspectives: Insights and Responses
This Open Access volume aims to inspire innovative and culturally-responsive transformations in teacher education practices and policies within Europe and beyond in the context of teacher shortage. It amalgamates the collaborative efforts during several years between the Center for Teacher Education and Educational Research (ZLSB) at TU Dresden University of Technology (Saxony, Germany) and eleven international partners. The articles inside explore different viewpoints on teacher shortage and endeavors to systematically navigate the intricacies of the problem in light of contemporary political shifts, institutional paradigms of universities, and the theoretical contemplations of the respective nations. Researchers from Australia, the Czech Republic, Denmark, the United Kingdom, Germany, Ireland, Japan, Poland, Sweden, Switzerland, and the United States venture into new territories by intertwining the discourse about teacher shortage with alternative routes into the teaching vocation.
Education, Space and Urban Planning
This book examines a range of practical developments that are happening in education as conducted in urban settings across different scales. It contains insights that draw upon the fields of urban planning/urbanism, geography, architecture, education and pedagogy. It brings together current thinking and practical experience from German and international perspectives. This discussion is organised in four segments: schools and the neighbourhood; education and the neighbourhood; education and the city and finally, education and the region. Contributors cover a wide range of contemporary and significant socio-political aspects of education over the last decade. They reinforce emergent thinking that space and its urban context are important dimensions of education. This book also underscores the need for more research in the relationships between education and urban development itself. Current urban planning does not fully connect our understanding in education with what we know in the spatial and planning sciences. Accordingly, this release is an early attempt to bring together a growing body of integrated and interdisciplinary reflection on education theory and practice.

Nothing Gold Can Stay
In twenty-two simple yet profound reflections, seasoned minister Mark Belletini explores the many and varied forms of grief. His honest, poetic essays serve as a prism, revealing the distinct colors and manifestations of grief in our lives. He addresses the way we respond to loss of people in our lives, loss of love, loss of focus, and loss of the familiar—understanding that grief is as much a part of our lives as our breathing. Belletini uses specific and personal stories to open up to the universal experience. Nothing Gold Can Stay is a gift of awareness, showing how the shades of grief serve our deepest needs.
The Rise and Fall of the German Democratic Republic
Most public debate on reunited Germany has emphasized economic issues such as the collapse of East German industry, mass unemployment, career difficulties, and differences in wages and living standards. The overwhelming difficulty resulting from reunification, however, is not persisting economic differences but the internal cultural divide between East and West Germans, one based upon different moral values in the two Germanies. The invisible wall that has replaced the previous, highly visible territorial division of the German nation is rooted in issues of the past-the Nazi past as well as the German Democratic Republic past. In emphasizing economic differences, the media and academics have...
