Life Course, Work, and Labour in Global History
This multidisciplinary volume offers unique perspectives, across the globe and throughout the centuries, on the complexity of the nexus between work and the life course. For industrialized regions, from Germany and Western Europe to China and Japan, it questions the widespread notion of an overall growing working life course instability, since the 1970s. For unindustrialized or industrializing regions, from West Africa to state socialist East Central Europe, as well as for transnational and transcontinental labour migrations, it shows the enormous influence of the extended family and wider kin on individual pathways into and out of work. For early modern Europe, India, and China, and up to t...
Challenges in Cybersecurity and Privacy - the European Research Landscape
Cybersecurity and Privacy issues are becoming an important barrier for a trusted and dependable global digital society development. Cyber-criminals are continuously shifting their cyber-attacks specially against cyber-physical systems and IoT, since they present additional vulnerabilities due to their constrained capabilities, their unattended nature and the usage of potential untrustworthiness components. Likewise, identity-theft, fraud, personal data leakages, and other related cyber-crimes are continuously evolving, causing important damages and privacy problems for European citizens in both virtual and physical scenarios. In this context, new holistic approaches, methodologies, technique...

The final chapters are devoted to sociology in the German Democratic Republic and the period from 1990 to the present day.

Durkheim, the Durkheimians, and the Arts
Using a broad definition of the Durkheimian tradition, this book offers the first systematic attempt to explore the Durkheimians’ engagement with art. It focuses on both Durkheim and his contemporaries as well as later thinkers influenced by his work. The first five chapters consider Durkheim’s own exploration of art; the remaining six look at other Durkheimian thinkers, including Marcel Mauss, Henri Hubert, Maurice Halbwachs, Claude Lévi-Strauss, Michel Leiris, and Georges Bataille. The contributors—scholars from a range of theoretical orientations and disciplinary perspectives—are known for having already produced significant contributions to the study of Durkheim. This book will interest not only scholars of Durkheim and his tradition but also those concerned with aesthetic theory and the sociology and history of art.

Zeit und Offene Kinder- und Jugendarbeit
Die Kinder- und Jugendarbeit ist mit Zeitthemen und Zeitwünschen von Kindern und Jugendlichen verbunden. Das vorliegende Buch stellt die Zeitnutzung von Kindern und Jugendlichen dar, thematisiert Zeitkonflikte und setzt sich aus dem Blickwinkel der Kinder- und Jugendarbeit für eine Reflexion und Politisierung von Zeitbudgets ein. Ergebnisse aus der Kinder- und Jugendforschung verweisen auf den heterogenen, aber oftmals belasteten Umgang mit der Zeit hin, weshalb Wege nach einer entschleunigten Beziehungsgestaltung gesucht werden, die die sozialpädagogischen Praxen qualitätsvoll erleben lassen.
Die Universität zu Köln im Nationalsozialismus
Als städtische Gründung war die Universität zu Köln ein Sonderfall unter den deutschen Hochschulen. Was folgte daraus für ihre Entwicklung in der Zeit des Nationalsozialismus? Die Universität zu Köln nahm im deutschen Hochschulsystem eine Sonderstellung ein. Sie zählte zu den neuen Großstadtuniversitäten, hob sich vor allem aber als von der Stadt Köln 1919 gegründete, von dieser getragene und finanzierte akademische Institution von anderen Hochschulen ab. Hans-Peter Ullmann untersucht, wie diese Besonderheiten zunächst den Weg der Universität in die nationalsozialistische Diktatur begünstigt, dann ihre Nazifizierung sowohl vorangetrieben als auch begrenzt und schließlich den ...
