Creativity and the Contemporary Economy
Creativity has become a central concept in trying to understand the contemporary economy. It is a universally accepted strategic asset and a key issue in developing economic policy. But at the same time, this lauding of the creative economy raises many questions. What can creativity really do for us? What challenges does it pose for the management and organization of companies? And, in an age when everyone tries to be creative, what does the concept even mean? This book deals with these issues, and is an engagement with the manifold ways in which creativity emerges as energy and functions as an organizing principle in modern organizations. The book presents a wide variety of approaches to understanding one of the most critical and exciting issues in modern management, with sections dedicated to the organization of innovation and creativity, leadership and management in creative endeavors, as well as creativity and organization change.

The Anthropology of Experience
Fourteen authors, including many of the best-known scholars in the field, explore how people actually experience their culture and how those experiences are expressed in forms as varied as narrative, literary work, theater, carnival, ritual, reminiscence, and life review. Their studies will be of special interest for anyone working in anthropological theory, symbolic anthropology, and contemporary social and cultural anthropology, and useful as well for other social scientists, folklorists, literary theorists, and philosophers.
Fetische des Konsums
Schon Marx hatte darauf hingewiesen, dass Produkte, sobald sie in den Markt eingeführt werden, eine Veränderung erfahren. Aus der Ware wird ein Fetisch, voller metaphysischer Spitzfindigkeiten und theologischer Mucken. Schaut man vor diesem Hintergrund auf die heutige Konsumgesellschaft, sind es vor allem Marken, die Fetischcharakter tragen. Ob Coca-Cola, Google oder iPhone: Bestimmte Marken strahlen eine enorme Faszination aus, verbreiten eine spezielle Aura um sich, die viele in ihren Bann zieht, sobald sie Gefallen an ihnen finden. Kurzum: Marken sind die Fetische des Konsums geworden. Der gleichnamige Band befasst sich aus soziologischer Perspektive mit den Funktionen und Folgen, die Marken für Konsumenten haben.
Nodes of Contemporary Finnish Literature
This book examines phenomena from Finnish and Finnish-Swedish literature written in the years between the 1980s and the first decade of the new millennium. Its objective is to study this interesting era of literary history in Finland and to sketch some possible directions for future development by identifying literary turning points which have already occurred. The nine articles found in the anthology are written by some of the most prominent literary scholars in Finland. These distinguished authors examine such varied topics as postmodern allegories, feminism, historiography, autobiographic writing, modern subjects in postmodern conditions, metalyrical poetry, realistic involvement in the novel, successful children's literature, and the intertextuality of Sofi Oksanen's famous novel Purge.
