Awakening the Hermit Kingdom
Awakening the Hermit Kingdom: Pioneer American Women Missionaries in Korea gives a focused look at the long-ignored subject, the pioneer women missionaries to the Hermit Kingdom, as the early missionaries often called Korea. Based largely on private papers and mission reports of the missionaries, the author explores the life and work of the American women missionaries in the first quarter century of the Protestant mission in Korea. This book brings a new light to the history of Protestantism in Korea by revealing the identity and activities of the women missionaries, as well as the level of religious and social impact made by their presence and work in Korea.

Regime Transition and the Judicial Politics of Enmity
Among the societies that experienced a political transition away from authoritarianism in the 1980s, South Korea is known as a paragon of 'successful democratization.' This achievement is considered to be intimately tied to a new institution introduced with the 1987 change of regime, intended to safeguard fundamental norms and rights: the Constitutional Court of Korea. While constitutional justice is largely celebrated for having achieved both purposes, this book proposes an innovative and critical account of the court's role. Relying on an interpretive analysis of jurisprudence, it uncovers the ambivalence with which the court has intervened in the major dispute opposing the state and parts of civil society after the transition: (re)defining enmity. In response to this challenge, constitutional justice has produced both liberal and illiberal outcomes, promoting the rule of law and basic rights while reinforcing the mechanisms of exclusion bounding South Korean democracy in the name of national security.

Internationales Handbuch der Berufsbildung
Das Berufsbildungssystem Australiens ist aus verschiedenen Gründen ein interessantes Beispiel für die Berufsbildungspolitik und -praxis: In Australien haben duale Formen der Berufsbildung eine weit größere quantitative Bedeutung als in anderen Ländern mit angelsächsisch geprägten Berufsbildungssystemen. Gleichzeitig spielen Flexibilität, Nachfrage- und "Kompetenzorientierung" als Grundphilosophie im Bildungs- und Berufsbildungssystems eine wichtige Rolle. Seit langer Zeit gibt es einen Qualifikationsrahmen und die Berufsbildungsforschung ist relativ stark ausgebaut. Diese Besonderheiten machen Australien auch für Deutschland zu einem besonderen Referenzpunkt.
