Am 24.02.2022 hat Russland die Ukraine überfallen. Diese von Putin ethnisch-völkisch begründete Invasion ist ein massiver Bruch des Völkerrechts und richtet sich gegen die europäische Friedensordnung. Es ist ein mit einem ethnischen Begriff des Volkes motivierter Einmarsch Russlands – nicht der Russinnen und Russen – in ein benachbartes, souveränes Land unter Missachtung dessen territorialer Integrität und dessen Recht auf politische Selbstbestimmung. Wie Politik und Gesellschaft haben auch die Akteur*innen der politischen Jugend- und Erwachsenenbildung geschockt und mit Entsetzen auf diesen seit längerem drohenden Angriff reagiert. Es wurden Appelle zur sofortigen Beendigung des...
The Pre-Industrial Consumer in England and America
"This book is a comprehensive study of English and American consumers and consumption before industrialization and mass urbanization. Shammas examines the changes in what rural households bought on the market and what they produced themselves. She charts the incredible growth in what contemporaries called groceries--tobacco, sugar, and caffeine drinks--and in semi-durables--lighter textiles, pottery, glassware, and paper products--and discusses the effects of this growth on diet and domestic environment. She also considers the process whereby the new goods got distributed. The sudden proliferation of shops and their relationship to market towns and peddling is also treated in depth. The comparison between England and America is of particular interest because the two were inextricably linked by trade and culture, yet their material situation, including land availability, population density, social structure, and natural resources differed greatly. Current notions about "consumer revolutions" and "consumer societies" are challenged and the author offers an alternative framework for evaluating changes in consumption patterns over time."--Publisher description.

Affective Health and Masculinities in South Africa
Affective Health and Masculinities in South Africa explores how different masculinities modulate substance use, interpersonal violence, suicidality, and AIDS as well as recovery cross-culturally. With a focus on three male protagonists living in very distinct urban areas of Cape Town, this comparative ethnography shows that men’s struggles to become invulnerable increase vulnerability. Through an analysis of masculinities as social assemblages, the study shows how affective health problems are tied to modern individualism rather than African ‘tradition’ that has become a cliché in Eurocentric gender studies. Affective health is conceptualized as a balancing act between autonomy and co...
