Interdisciplinary Practices in Higher Education
Drawing on eight crowdsourced cases, Interdisciplinary Practices in Higher Education demonstrates the range and diversity in approaches to teaching, learning and collaborating across disciplinary and institutional borders.

Climate Garden 2085
"This book serves as a manual for the implementation of such a public experiment on a local or regional level anywhere in the world. Texts by human geographers, art historians, literary scholars and ecologists are complemented by a detailed, step-by-step guide to creating a climate garden. Communities and institutions are thus given a tool to tell their own story, adding a personal and emotional dimension to the often abstract global climate scenarios."--Page 4 de la couverture.
Cross-Border Marriages
Marriages that involve the migration of at least one of the spouses challenge two intersecting facets of the politics of belonging: the making of the 'good and legitimate citizens' and the 'acceptable family'. In Europe, cross-border marriages have been the target of increasing state controls, an issue of public concern and the object of scholarly research. The study of cross-border marriages and the ways these marriages are framed is inevitably affected by states' concerns and priorities. There is a need for a reflexive assessment of how the categories employed by state institutions and agents have impacted the study of cross-border marriages. This collection of essays analyses what is at s...

Framing. Eine integrative Theorie der Massenkommunikation
Dieses Buch bietet eine umfassende Bestandsaufnahme zum Konzept des Framings, das eine breite Anwendung auf massenmediale Kommunikationsprozesse ermöglicht und deshalb auf zunehmendes Interesse stößt. Der Autor arbeitet die multidisziplinäre Geschichte des Framing-Begriffs auf und legt eine präzisierende Definition vor. Mit einer kriteriengeleiteten Literaturanalyse erschließt und systematisiert er das heterogene Feld der empirischen Forschung auf diesem Gebiet. Und schließlich demonstriert er anhand einer Fallstudie das Potenzial der Theorie für die integrierte Analyse von Medieninhalten und Medienwirkungen und diskutiert, unter welchen Bedingungen Framing als Paradigma für die Kommunikations- und Medienwissenschaft dienen kann. Urs Dahinden ist wissenschaftlicher Mitarbeiter am Institut für Publizistikwissenschaft und Medienforschung der Universität Zürich, wo er sich 2005 mit dieser Studie habilitiert hat.
Translocal Care across Kosovo’s Borders
In today’s globalized world, where the foundations of home and social security are destabilized due to wars and neoliberal transformations, the villagers of Kosovo are linked with a common locality despite living across borders. By tracing long-distant family relations with a special focus on cross-border marriages, this study looks at the reconfiguration of care relations, gender and generational roles among kin-members of Kosovo, who now live in different European states.
The Routledge Companion to Migration Literature
The Routledge Companion to Migration Literature offers a comprehensive survey of an increasingly important field. It demonstrates the influence of the “age of migration” on literature and showcases the role of literature in shaping socio-political debates and creating knowledge about the migratory trajectories, lives, and experiences that have shaped the post-1989 world. The contributors examine a broad range of literary texts and critical approaches that cover the spectrum between voluntary and forced migration. In doing so, they reflect the shift in recent years from the author-centric study of migrant writing to a more inclusive conception of migration literature. The book contains se...
