Motivation and Action
The translation of this volume has been a long and sometime arduous journey giving nearly literal meaning to the Latin term translatus, meaning to carry across. In fact, it required many journeys both geographically, between Canada and Germany, and fig uratively, between German and English language, thought, and culture; between the mind of a German professor and that of his American colleague. Whether or not it was all worthwhile must be left to the reader's judgment, but let me outline the rationale for embarking on this venture. When the first German edition of this book appeared in 1980 it was acclaimed not only by German scholars but by those outside the German-speaking community as wel...

Gewissheit und Motivation
Die empirische Motivations- und Handlungspsychologie befasst sich mit einem Aspekt des menschlichen Lebens, der auch fur das philosophische und theologische Erkenntnisinteresse von grosster Bedeutung ist: mit der orientierenden und motivierenden Kraft, die menschlichem Handeln zugrunde liegt. Die verschiedenen Wissenschaftszweige und ihre Verstehensweisen des gemeinsamen Gegenstandes sind allerdings bislang nicht miteinander ins Gesprach gebracht worden. Diese Lucke schliesst die vorliegende Untersuchung, die mehreren Forschungsbereichen aufschlussreiche Konkretisierungen der je eigenen Perspektive bietet. Theologen, Philosophen und Padagogen konnen in kritischer Rezeption von empirischer Handlungs- und Motivationsforschung lernen. Psychologen umgekehrt sind eingeladen, die Verstehensbemuhungen anderer um ihre Wissenschaft nachzuvollziehen.
International Handbook of Violence Research
An international manual is like a world cruise: a once-in-a-lifetime experience. All the more reason to consider carefully whether it is necessary. This can hardly be the case if previous research in the selected field has already been the subject of an earlier review-or even several competing surveys. On the other hand, more thorough study is necessary if the intensity and scope of research are increasing without comprehensive assessments. That was the situation in Western societies when work began on this project in the summer of 1998. It was then, too, that the challenges emerged: any manual, espe cially an international one, is a very special type of text, which is anything but routine. ...
