Diese vergleichende Analyse von zehn Konfliktherden in Südosteuropa (u.a. Bosnien-Hercegovina, Kosovo, Republik Makedonien) belegt, dass die beteiligten ethnischen Identitäten das Resultat unserer Moderne sind. Mit Hilfe der Methode der Dekonstruktion zeichnet das Buch deren Entstehungsgeschichte nach und diskutiert dabei die Konfliktdimension ethnischer Proporzsysteme. Dem gegenüber steht als Alternative die integrative Kraft des politischen Nationsmodells eines ethnisch neutralen Verfassungsstaats.
The written text was a pervasive feature of cultural practices in the medieval Middle East. At the heart of book circulation stood libraries that experienced a rapid expansion from the twelfth century onwards.

This catalogue shows that even book collections attached to Sunni religious institutions could hold rather unexpe...
Die Geistesgeschichte der fruhen Turkischen Republik ist bisher noch nicht ausreichend erforscht worden, und dies gilt insbesondere fur die facettenreiche Sprachreform und die ihr zugrundeliegenden sprachwissenschaftlichen Theorien.

Jahrhunderts als Basis haben. Diese wurden von turkischer Seite mehr oder weniger willkurlich adaptiert bzw. transformiert und sind auch im heutigen turkischen Geistesleben ein nicht zu unterschatzender Faktor. In dem Werk wird auch erstmals i...
"Imagine it is the seventh century. As most of Europe continues its descent into a long period of intellectually dormancy, a quiet yet powerful academic revolution is erupting in another corner of the world. Over the next centuries, the geniuses of Muslim society will thrust the boundaries of knowledge forward to such a degree that their innovations still shape civilizations to this day. The staggering achievements of these men and women influenced the development of modern mathematics, science, engineering, and medicine. 1001 Inventions: The Enduring Legacy of Muslim Civilization sheds new light on this golden era that was once lost to so many, and celebrates the heritage that we all share"--Page 4 of cover.
