Multilingual Approaches for Teaching and Learning outlines the opportunities and challenges of multilingual approaches in mainstream education in Europe. The book, which draws on research findings from several officially monolingual, bilingual, and multilingual countries in Europe, discusses approaches to multilingual education which capitalise on students’ multilingual resources from early childhood to higher education. This book synthesises research on multilingual education, relates theory to practice, and discusses different pedagogical approaches from diverse perspectives. The first section of the book outlines multilingual approaches in early childhood education and primary school, t...

„Dritter Raum“, „Hybridität“, „Mimikry“ oder „Übersetzung“: Homi K. Bhabha, einer der einflussreichsten und innovativsten postkolonialen Theoretiker der Gegenwart, prägt in seinen Untersuchungen ebenso schillernde wie voraussetzungsreiche Metaphern für ein neues Denken von Kulturkontakt und kulturellen Mischungen. Seine hochtheoretisierten Reflexionen speisen sich dabei aus Theorie und Kunst: Einerseits verortet Bhabha sein Denken in der postkolonialen, poststrukturalistischen Literatur- und Kulturtheorie, andererseits lässt er sich von literarischen und künstlerischen Artefakten inspirieren und gewinnt aus ihnen neue Bilder, die die aktuelle Situation der globalen Migration jenseits von kultureliminierender Assimilation oder kulturrelativistischer Multikulturalität neu zu denken erlauben. Bhabha verfolgt damit eine konsequente Dekonstruktion kultureller Dichotomien und entwickelt neue Denkfiguren für komplexe kulturelle Begegnungen.

"The definitive and gripping account of the sometimes exhilarating, often tortured twists and turns in the Middle East peace process, viewed from the front row by one of its major players."--Bill Clinton The Missing Peace, published to great acclaim last year, is the most candid inside account of the Middle East peace process ever written. Dennis Ross, the chief Middle East peace negotiator in the presidential administrations of George H. W. Bush and Bill Clinton, is that rare figure who is respected by all parties: Democrats and Republicans, Palestinians and Israelis, presidents and people on the street in Jerusalem, Ramallah, and Washington, D.C. Ross recounts the peace process in detail f...
The Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO) is a joint ESA/NASA mission to study the Sun, from its deep core to the outer corona, and the solar wind. SOHO was launched on 2 December 1995 and was inserted into a halo orbit around the L1 Lagrangian point on 14 February 1996. From this vantage point, it is continuously monitoring the Sun, the heliosphere, and the solar wind particles that stream toward the Earth. Nominal operations of the SOHO mission started in April 1996 after commissioning of the spacecraft and the scientific payload. This volume contains papers reporting first scientific results from the SOHO mission as well as descriptions of the in-flight performance of some of the inst...
