Bad Wolf
In Bad Wolf, Nele Neuhaus's second U.S. publication of her enormously popular series, tensions run high both inside and outside police headquarters, and a complex and unpredictable plot propels her characters forward at breakneck speed. On a hot June day, the body of a sixteen-year-old girl washes up on a riverbank outside of Frankfurt. She has been brutally murdered and shows signs of long-term abuse, but no one comes forward with any information as to her identity. Even weeks later, the local police have not been able to find out who she is. Then a new case comes in: A popular television host is attacked, raped, and locked in the trunk of her own car. She survives, barely, and is able to s...
Vokabular des Virtuellen
Virtualität prägt Lebenswelten auf vielschichtige, widersprüchliche und teils überraschende Weise. Das Early Career Forum des Sonderforschungsbereichs »Virtuelle Lebenswelten« der Ruhr-Universität Bochum zeichnet lexikalisch die Komplexität des Virtuellen nach, widmet sich dessen facettenreichen, kontroversen Erfahrungen und bietet durch pointierte Begriffsarbeit inhaltliche und methodologische Zugänge zum Thema. Virtualität deutet umfassenden sozialen und kulturellen Wandel an, virtuelle Lebenswelten können aber nur situiert verstanden werden – verwoben mit und losgelöst von digitalen Technologien.

Das Science Fiction Jahr 2022
2021 war das Jahr der privaten Raumfahrt: Jeff Bezos und Richard Branson haben bereits ihren ersten Flug hinter sich, ebenso William Shatner alias Captain Kirk. Auch Tesla-Chef Elon Musk bringt mit seinem Unternehmen Space-X erstmals vier Weltraumtouristen – ganz ohne professionelle Astronauten an Bord – ins All. Die Wirklichkeit scheint die Science Fiction einmal mehr einzuholen. Umso mehr stellt sich die Frage: Welche Rolle spielt die private Raumfahrt in der SF? Und dieser gehen wir in Beiträgen von Wolfgang Both, Bernd Flessner, Judith Vogt, Simon Spiegel und anderen mit dem Schwerpunkthema der 37. Ausgabe des Jahrbuchs auf den Grund. Doch wir wollen auch einen Blick auf einen gesel...
Their Members' Voice
The role of civil society organisations in Brussels is debated. Some view them as representatives of their members and thus as legitimising agents for policy-making in the European Union. Others see them as being elitist and out of touch with their membership bases, therefore ill-suited to promote democracy at the EU level. Taking civil society organisations in the EU’s external relations as an example, Meike Rodekamp submits these controversial views to a reality check. Interviews with representatives of civil society organisations in Brussels and their member organisations in the EU show that the Brussels offices have not lost contact with their members. However, member organisations differ substantially in their participation in internal decision-making processes, which raises doubts about the legitimacy gains through civil society participation in EU policy-making.
Big Bad Wolf
On a hot day in July, the body of a sixteen-year-old girl is pulled from the river Main near Frankfurt. She has been brutally attacked and murdered, but no one seems to miss her and no one seems to know who she is. Investigations lead to a rural children's home in the mountains, and to a TV presenter whose research took her too close to the wrong people. As investigators Pia Kirchhoff and Oliver von Bodenstein dig deeper, they uncover a web of lies and deceit in the midst of a middle-class idyll. And then the case gets personal . . .
