"Trauriges Kapitel entfesselter Leidenschaften": Die oberschlesische Abstimmungszeit in der Berichterstattung der deutschen liberalen Tagespresse
Die oberschlesische Abstimmungszeit nach dem Ersten Weltkrieg bildet ein dunkles und blutiges, bislang in der deutschen Öffentlichkeit zudem weitgehend unbekanntes Kapitel der deutsch-polnischen Vergangenheit. Das Plebiszit sowie die drei oberschlesischen Aufstände in den Jahren 1919–1921, die in der Aufteilung des Gebietes zwischen Deutschland und Polen mündeten, führten in Deutschland zu einer außerordentlich hitzigen, polemischen und polarisierten Debatte. In der vorliegenden Publikation, die zum hundertsten Jahrestag des oberschlesischen Abstimmungskampfes erscheint, analysiert der Autor die Zeit des oberschlesischen Plebiszits aus der Perspektive der liberalen deutschen Reichspre...

Brokers of Modernity
The story of modernist architects in East Central Europe The first half of the twentieth century witnessed the rise of modernist architects. Brokers of Modernity reveals how East Central Europe turned into one of the pre-eminent testing grounds of the new belief system of modernism. By combining the internationalism of the CIAM organization and the modernising aspirations of the new states built after 1918, the reach of modernist architects extended far beyond their established fields. Yet, these architects paid a price when Europe’s age of extremes intensified. Mainly drawing on Polish, but also wider Central and Eastern European cases, this book delivers a pioneering study of the dynamics of modernist architects as a group, including how they became qualified, how they organized, communicated and attempted to live the modernist lifestyle themselves. In doing so, Brokers of Modernity raises questions concerning collective work in general and also invites us to examine the social role of architects today. Ebook available in Open Access. This publication is GPRC-labeled (Guaranteed Peer-Reviewed Content).
Tourism and Animal Ethics
This timely book provides a critical account of the role that animals play in the tourism industry, representing an extension of the sustainability imperative and environmental theory. Written by a leading academic and author, this volume explores the rich history of animal ethics research, both inside and outside of tourism studies, for the purpose of providing greater theoretical, empirical, conceptual, and practical guidance. It examines historical and current practices of the use of animals in the tourism industry from both in situ to ex situ consumption and production perspectives, identifying a range of ethical issues associated with such use. This second edition has been updated to re...
Quantum Probability and Randomness
The last few years have been characterized by a tremendous development of quantum information and probability and their applications, including quantum computing, quantum cryptography, and quantum random generators. In spite of the successful development of quantum technology, its foundational basis is still not concrete and contains a few sandy and shaky slices. Quantum random generators are one of the most promising outputs of the recent quantum information revolution. Therefore, it is very important to reconsider the foundational basis of this project, starting with the notion of irreducible quantum randomness. Quantum probabilities present a powerful tool to model uncertainty. Interpretations of quantum probability and foundational meaning of its basic tools, starting with the Born rule, are among the topics which will be covered by this issue. Recently, quantum probability has started to play an important role in a few areas of research outside quantum physics—in particular, quantum probabilistic treatment of problems of theory of decision making under uncertainty. Such studies are also among the topics of this issue.
