Marine Conservation and International Law
This book provides a blueprint for an International Legally Binding Instrument (ILBI) for the conservation and sustainable use of marine biodiversity beyond national jurisdiction (BBNJ). The development of an ILBI could signify a pivotal turning point in the law of the sea by addressing regulatory, governance and institutional gaps and deficiencies in the existing international law framework for BBNJ. This book analyses the essential components an ILBI will require to effectively conserve and sustainably use BBNJ, focusing on marine genetic resources, areabased management tools, environmental impact assessments, capacity-building and marine technology transfer.

Exploring the Spatiality of the City across Cultural Texts
Exploring the Spatiality of the City across Cultural Texts: Narrating Spaces, Reading Urbanity explores the narrative formations of urbanity from an interdisciplinary perspective. Within the framework of the “spatial turn,” contributors from disciplines ranging from geography and history to literary and media studies theorize narrative constructions of the city and cities, and analyze relevant examples from a variety of discourses, media, and cities. Subdivided into six sections, the book explores the interactions of city and text—as well as other media—and the conflicting narratives that arise in these interactions. Offering case studies that discuss specific aspects of the narrative construction of Berlin and London, the text also considers narratives of urban discontinuity and their theoretical implications. Ultimately, this volume captures the narratological, artistic, material, social, and performative possibilities inherent in spatial representations of the city.
Zuhause im Text
Die Verschränkung räumlicher Erfahrung mit Erinnerungsbildung und Fragen der kulturellen Zugehörigkeit kann in der jüdischen Gedächtnistradition und Literatur auf eine tiefe Verwurzelung verweisen. Im Exil wird die Bedeutung erinnernder Bezüge zum aktuellen Ort und seinen historischen Bedeutungsschichten stets neu verhandelt. So lässt sich Raum wie auch Erinnerungsbildung als relationaler und dynamischer Prozess charakterisieren, in dem die Positionierung der Akteur*innen von großer Bedeutung ist. Die in Zuhause im Text untersuchten Romane von Linda Grant, Tamar Yellin und Naomi Alderman nähern sich auf höchst unterschiedliche Weise dem Phänomen der Erinnerung und seiner Verknüpfung mit den räumlichen Geflechten Londons, Liverpools, Tel Avivs oder Jerusalems. Fragen kultureller Zugehörigkeit zu Orten und Erinnerungsgemeinschaften verbinden sich mit der Verhandlung von Fragen der Autorschaft in Bezug auf das eigene Leben wie auch der Erinnerung. Ausdeutungen des Raums, des Textes und des eigenen Selbst rücken ins Zentrum der Aufmerksamkeit von Martin Kindermanns Untersuchung.
The Opéra
THE OPÉRA is inventing itself anew?at least to some extent. After eight successful editions with alternating art direction, the editor, Matthias Straub has entrusted the design legend Mirko Borsche (ZEIT magazine, SZ magazine, and many more) with the creative re-launch of the ninth edition: A refreshing new approach to the pictures and typography will bring THE OPÉRA into its next decade. The proven structure and the artistic gaze in the selection of photographers and pictures are also central in Volume IX: THE OPÉRA embodies contemporary nude photography and stands for an unconditional commitment to art and the body.
