Zu Leistungsfähigkeit und Leistungsgrenzen von EDV-Simulatiossystemen für schriftliche Echtzeit-Mikrokommunikation - Elizas Nachkommen als Instrumente der Sozionik
Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2000 im Fachbereich Soziologie - Methodologie und Methoden, Note: 1,3, Georg-August-Universität Göttingen (Soziologisches Seminar), Veranstaltung: Sozialwissenschaftliche Simulationen und Modelle, PD Dr. Volker Müller-Benedict, Wintersemester 2000/2001, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Schon Alan Turing hat sich darüber den Kopf zerbrochen: Ist es möglich, eine Maschine zu entwerfen, die sprachlich ein derartiges Kommunikationsvermögen besitzt, dass sie an einem Fernschreiber nicht von einem Menschen unterscheidbar ist und vergleichbar kreativ (re-)agieren kann? Das war bereits in der Mitte des 20. Jahrhunderts, und die Frage nach Realisierbarkeit wirklicher küns...

Higher Education Landscape 2030
This open access Springer Brief provides a systematic analysis of current trends and requirements in the areas of knowledge and competence in the context of the project “(A) Higher Education Digital (AHEAD)—International Horizon Scanning / Trend Analysis on Digital Higher Education.” It examines the latest developments in learning theory, didactics, and digital-education technology in connection with an increasingly digitized higher education landscape. In turn, this analysis forms the basis for envisioning higher education in 2030. Here, four learning pathways are developed to provide a glimpse of higher education in 2030: Tamagotchi, a closed ecosystem that is built around individual...
Vivid Rhetoric and Visual Persuasion
A major scholarly collaboration exploring vivid visual rhetoric in the New Testament From Jesus’s miraculous walk on water to the graphic horrors of hell, New Testament authors make vivid and unforgettable images appear before their audience’s eyes. In the past decade, scholarship on early Christian use of ancient rhetorical techniques has flourished. One focus of rhetorical criticism of the New Testament has been the function of ekphrasis, or vivid visual description. In this landmark collection, leading New Testament scholars come together to probe the purpose and import of ekphrasis in early Christian literature. The research in this collection explores the relationship between vivid ...
Hostile Takeovers of Large Jewish Companies, 1933–1935
Opportunism combined with anti-Semitism led non-Nazi businessmen to acquire the largest German-Jewish companies in the period 1933–1935. These hostile takeovers were made possible by the Deutsche Bank and Dresdner Bank, which recalled loans previously extended to Jewish firms. Thereby Germany's largest banks obtained new loan fees, new supervisory board seats and became the house banks for the new Gentile-owned firms. The German judiciary did not defend Jewish property rights, because judges shared the same conservative mindset. Scholarship has previously not discovered this 1933–1935 paradigm because of a focus on Berlin government or Nazi Party actions, instead of the Jewish companies. In addition, a failure to distinguish between multi-million dollar enterprises and tiny shops caused scholars to emphasize the year 1938, when thousands of mom-and-pop shops became bankrupt.
Muslim Bodies
Der Sammelband ist aus einem Panel beim Deutschen Orientalistentag in Marburg 2010 hervorgegangen und beleuchtet aus unterschiedlichen Perspektiven Körpererfahrungen, -kulturen, -diskurse und -techniken in islamisch geprägten Kulturen der Vergangenheit und Gegenwart. Leitgedanke ist dabei die Frage danach, wie Individuen ihr Wissen über Körper/Sexualität im sozialen Feld konstruieren und welche Deutungssysteme (z. B. Islam, graeco-islamische Medizin) dabei wirksam werden. The present volume, product of a conference panel at the German Orientalists' Conference in Marburg 2010, aims at throwing light on the experiences, discourses and body techniques prevailing in Muslim bodily culture. It combines historical with contemporary case studies and explores the individual and collective patterns of knowledge construction related to body and sexuality, in a social field where different and sometimes conflicting knowledge systems (e.g. Islam, Graeco-Islamic Medicine) can be found at work.
A Dictionary of German-Jewish Surnames
This dictionary identifies more than 13,000 German-Jewish surnames from the area that was pre-World War I Germany. From Baden-Wuerttemburg in the south to Schleswig-Holstein in the north. From Westfalen in the west to East Prussia in the east. In addition to providing the etymology and variants of each name, it identifies where in the region the name appeared, identifying the town and time period. More than 300 sources were used to compile the book. A chapter provides the Jewish population in many towns in the 19th century.
The Art of Discovery
A panoramic history of the antiquarians whose discoveries transformed Renaissance culture and gave rise to new forms of art and knowledge In the early fifteenth century, a casket containing the remains of the Roman historian Livy was unearthed at a Benedictine abbey in Padua. The find was greeted with the same enthusiasm as the bones of a Christian saint, and established a pattern that antiquarians would follow for centuries to come. The Art of Discovery tells the stories of the Renaissance antiquarians who turned material remains of the ancient world into sources for scholars and artists, inspirations for palaces and churches, and objects of pilgrimage and devotion. Maren Elisabeth Schwab a...
Networks of Nazi Persecution
The persecution and mass-murder of the Jews during World War II would not have been possible without the modern organization of division of labor. Moreover, the perpetrators were dependent on human and organizational resources they could not always control by hierarchy and coercion. Instead, the persecution of the Jews was based, to a large extent, on a web of inter-organizational relations encompassing a broad variety of non-hierarchical cooperation as well as rivalry and competition. Based on newly accessible government and corporate archives, this volume combines fresh evidence with an interpretation of the governance of persecution, presented by prominent historians and social scientists.
Die Dresdner Bank und die deutschen Juden
Der Band geht detailliert darauf ein, wie sich die Dresdner Bank am Ausschluss der deutschen Juden aus dem Wirtschaftsleben beteiligte. Dabei geht es auf der einen Seite darum, wie die Bank mit ihren eigenen jüdischen Angestellten umging. Hier zeigt sich, wie die rassistische NS-Gesetzgebung zur geschäftlichen Vorteilsnahme genutzt wurde. Auf der anderen Seite wird untersucht, wie sich die Dresdner Bank die "Arisierung" von gewerblichem und privatem Vermögen zu Nutze machte und aus der Zwangslage der deutschen Juden Kapital schlug.
