Knowledge Transfer between Germany and Russia
The study gives an overview of knowledge and technology (K&T) transfer between Germany and Russia in the areas of science, higher education and professional qualification between 2000 and 2015. It describes the formalized strategies of transfer like - political agreements and initiatives on federal, state and regional level - German and Russian intermediary institutions, their profiles and role in the transfer process - activities and outcomes of K&T transfer in research, higher education, professional qualification, and civil society, based on bilateral agreements of institutions involved. Informal transfer activities will be mirrored by giving an overview on - mobility of students, scientists and other technology transfer actors in Germany and Russia - co-publications, conferences and informal networking activities. The new situation of open political confrontation since 2014 and its effects on the German-Russian K&T transfer will be addressed in the outlook chapter.
Zwischen Annäherung und Distanz: 30 Jahre Deutsch-Russische Kulturbeziehungen (1988 – 2018) am regionalen Beispiel Kassel
1988 waren die Erwartungen groß, die Nachkriegsordnung und den Kalten Krieg beenden und eine echte Partnerschaft zwischen Russland und Deutschland aufbauen zu können. Politiker beider Länder sahen sich als aktive Gestalter eines gemeinsamen „Europäisches Hauses“. 30 Jahre Kooperationsbeziehungen und Kulturaustausch mit der Sowjetunion und ab 1991 mit Russland sind Anlass, im Jahr 2018 zurückzublicken und Bilanz zu ziehen. Die Rückblende erfolgt aus regionaler Perspektive und konzentriert sich auf deutscher Seite auf die Region Kassel und Nordhessen. Hier haben sich enge Beziehungen zu den russischen Partnerstädten Jaroslawl und Nowy Urengoi entwickelt, aber auch darüber hinaus si...
Computational approaches to semantic change
Semantic change — how the meanings of words change over time — has preoccupied scholars since well before modern linguistics emerged in the late 19th and early 20th century, ushering in a new methodological turn in the study of language change. Compared to changes in sound and grammar, semantic change is the least understood. Ever since, the study of semantic change has progressed steadily, accumulating a vast store of knowledge for over a century, encompassing many languages and language families. Historical linguists also early on realized the potential of computers as research tools, with papers at the very first international conferences in computational linguistics in the 1960s. Suc...

Feeling Their Pain
The 2020 Presidential Election in the United States marked, for many, a return to "compassionate politics." Joe Biden had run on a platform of empathy, emphasizing his personal history as a means of connecting with everyone from American workers who had lost jobs to military families who had lost loved ones. Although perceptions of candidate compassion are broadly understood to influence vote choice, less understood is the question of how candidates convince voters they truly "care about people like them." In Feeling their Pain: Why Voters want Leaders who Care, Jared McDonald provides a framework for understanding why voters view some politicians as more compassionate than others. McDonald ...
Metaphor
The literary imagination may take flight on the wings of metaphor, but hard-headed scientists are just as likely as doe-eyed poets to reach for a metaphor when the descriptive need arises. Metaphor is a pervasive aspect of every genre of text and every register of speech, and is as useful for describing the inner workings of a "black hole" (itself a metaphor) as it is the affairs of the human heart. The ubiquity of metaphor in natural language thus poses a significant challenge for Natural Language Processing (NLP) systems and their builders, who cannot afford to wait until the problems of literal language have been solved before turning their attention to figurative phenomena. This book off...
Bibliographie Linguistique de L'annee 1999
Setting out the historical national and religious characteristics of the Italians as they impact on the integration within the European Union, this study makes note of the two characteristics that have an adverse effect on Italian national identity: cleavages between north and south and the dominant role of family. It discusses how for Italians family loyalty is stronger than any other allegiance, including feelings towards their country, their nation, or the EU. Due to such subnational allegiances and values, this book notes that Italian civic society is weaker and engagement at the grass roots is less robust than one finds in other democracies, leaving politics in Italy largely in the hands of political parties. The work concludes by noting that EU membership, however, provides no magic bullet for Italy: it cannot change internal cleavages, the Italian worldview, and family values or the country’s mafia-dominated power matrix, and as a result, the underlying absence of fidelity to a shared polity—Italian or European—leave the country as ungovernable as ever.
