Transnational Mobility and Externalization of EU Borders
Transnational Mobility and Externalization of EU Borders: Social Work, Migration Management and Resistance addresses the topics of social work and international migration, with specific focus on the consequences of EU border externalization policies. The increasingly authoritarian character of EU border management raises a number of issues related to the role of social work within a context that is heavily charged, both ideologically and politically. After theoretically and historically contextualizing externalization with explicit attention to (neo)colonial genealogies of the current migration regimes, this book examines the complex inter-relations of social workers with key actors, namely ...
Stories and Memories, Memories and Histories
This edited volume brings together authors from a wide variety of disciplines in the social sciences and humanities. A historian first investigates understudied samizdat literature, a film critic then analyzes Balkan cinema via psychoanalysis, a psychologist examines contemporary European border policies, and a political scientist analyzes the Confederate-memorial debate. Philosophers consider the space of those memorials, ethno-national narratives in India, the Anthropocene and the mind’s historical imaginary, and the notion of home. Literary critics examine recent developments in modes of storytelling and images of Orientalism. What emerges is a new understanding of history, memory, and time.

Verwundbar
Die menschliche Verwundbarkeit ist von großem humanem Interesse. Aus diesem Grund entwickelt sie sich in den letzten Jahren interdisziplinär zu einem innovativen Forschungsthema. Welche Machtwirkungen entfaltet die Vulnerabilität in aktuellen Debatten um Migration und Terror, sexuellen Missbrauch und interkulturellem Diskurs? Inwiefern sind Wunden ein Ort der Kommunikation, insbesondere in Liebe und Zuneigung, Fürsorge und Zärtlichkeit? In einer fruchtbaren Kooperation führten die Würzburger Forschungsgruppe "Vulnerabilität, Sicherheit und Resilienz" und das DFG-Projekt "Verwundbarkeiten" mit weiteren Partnerinnen zwei Ringvorlesungen an der Universität Würzburg durch. Die vorliegenden Beiträge beleuchten aktuelle Themen der Verwundbarkeit jeweils im Duett aus einer theologischen und humanwissenschaftlichen Perspektive. So kommen Wissenschaften in einen gesellschaftlich relevanten Dialog.
Lebendige Seelsorge 3/2019
Die katholische Kirche in Deutschland steckt in einer tiefen Krise angesichts der Ergebnisse der sogenannten MHG-Studie vom September 2018. Nach dem Entsetzen und der Betroffenheit sind Maßnahmen der Aufarbeitung und Veränderung auf den unterschiedlichsten Ebenen und in ganz verschiedenen Bereichen zwingend erforderlich. Die "Lebendige Seelsorge" möchte eine Stimme in diesem Prozess sein. Im ersten Beitrag kommt Doris Wagner zu Wort. Sie ist eine Überlebende von spirituellem und sexuellem Missbrauch. Aus dieser Perspektive ist der Beitrag geschrieben. Sie kommt zu dem Schluss, dass sich ein echter Ausweg aus der Krise noch nicht abzeichnet. Hans-Joachim Sander beschreibt eine unheilige T...

Everyone Leads
Drawing on decades of leadership experience, bestselling author Chris Lowney examines the profound challenges facing the global Catholic Church, shares real-life stories of Catholics making a difference, and offers practical suggestions for change. The Catholic Church is suffering its worst decline in five centuries—a precipitous slide that will turn catastrophic unless reversed by fundamental changes in strategy, culture, and leadership style. Even the inspiring leadership of Pope Francis will not reverse the slide without a strategy for action, from the grassroots through the hierarchy. Chris Lowney, a former Jesuit seminarian and business executive who now chairs one of the world’s la...
Racializing Caste
The book analyses how racial knowledge has circulated in transnational entanglements, particularly between Germany and India, into the research on human variation in India, racializing the understanding of caste and ethnicity. It focuses on the legacy of Irawati Karve (1905-1970), a Indian anthropologist trained at the Kaiser Wilhelm Institute for Anthropology, Eugenics, and Human Heredity in Berlin, Germany (1927-1930) and a prominent scientist in post-colonial India. Besides a historical analysis of Karve’s adaptation of racial approaches to the study of Indian castes, the book applies material-semiotic and ethnographic lenses to examine how her work is taken up today in anthropology and...
