Performing Citizenship
This open access book discusses how citizenship is performed today, mostly through the optic of the arts, in particular the performing arts, but also from the perspective of a wide range of academic disciplines such as urbanism and media studies, cultural education and postcolonial theory. It is a compendium that includes insights from artistic and activist experimentation. Each chapter investigates a different aspect of citizenship, such as identity and belonging, rights and responsibilities, bodies and materials, agencies and spaces, and limitations and interventions. It rewrites and rethinks the many-layered concept of citizenship by emphasising the performative tensions produced by various uses, occupations, interpretations and framings.
The Abuse of Property
A fundamental critique of the current property regime, calling for radical social and political change. In The Abuse of Property, Daniel Loick offers a multifaceted philosophical critique of the concept of property, broadly understood. He argues that property should not be the dominant framework in which human beings regulate the use of things, that property is not the same as use. Property rights, in his view, are not conditions of freedom or justice, but deficient, dysfunctional, and harmful ways of interacting with other people and the natural environment. He dissects not only the classic justifications of property (from John Locke's justification of property as a natural right based on individual freedom to Hegel's justification of property as a form of mutual recognition) but also the classic critiques of property, from Proudhon and Marx up to Adorno and Agamben. Through an innovative critical approach to legal studies, Loick demonstrates how the concept of property, historically applied to things and people and still a linchpin of our distorted relation with the world, forms a direct line from the Occupy movement to Black Lives Matter and beyond.

Hearing Experiences in Germany, 1914–1945
This book tells the story of Germany between the years 1914–1945 through the history of its sounds and noises. From the killing grounds of the Great War, passing through the roaring optimism of the 1920s, and up to the horrifying spectacle of the Nazis and the dreadful apocalypse of the Second World War, sound became the epitaph of an era that was mostly dominated by war and a global sense of crisis. Yaron Jean reconstructs and analyses these moments when sound and its meaning became history, and places them in a single study that provides a unique perspective on the history of modern Germany in one of its most turbulent centuries.
Kausalsätze verstehen und formulieren
In der fachdidaktischen und fachwissenschaftlichen Forschung sind Konnektoren ein beliebter Forschungsgegenstand, weil sie Kohärenz herstellen und die Rezeption erleichtern können. Gleichzeitig zeigt sich auch, dass der Einsatz von Konnektoren bei Schüler:innen unterschiedlicher Jahrgangsstufen nicht immer unproblematisch ist. Der Fokus der empirischen Studie liegt auf der Eruierung des Verstehens und Produzierens von Kausalsätzen bei Sechstklässler:innen vor und nach dem Zeigen verschiedener Visualisierungen, um den Auf- und Ausbau einer semantisch-kategorialen Bewusstheit zu unterstützen.
