The Palgrave Handbook on the Economics of Manipulation in Sport
Sport has enjoyed steadily increasing prominence and economic importance since the Millennium. But threats to its integrity appear to have grown in parallel, undermining the very sense of innocence and fun which is an important part of its appeal. Threats to the spirit of sport come from internal, external and even state actors, who seek either to manipulate events on the field or to exploit the institutions of sport for their own ends. As the reputation of sport becomes more tarnished as a result, its sustainability as a significant part of the entertainment industry is called into question and loss of reputation may even result in decline in recreational play. In this wide-ranging collecti...
Hochschulen für den öffentlichen Dienst
Die Hochschulen für den öffentlichen Dienst sind mit über 50.000 Studierenden in allen Bundesländern und auf Bundesebene in Deutschland vertreten. Nicht nur in den zentralen Bereichen Allgemeine Verwaltung, Polizei, Rechtspflege und Finanzen, sondern auch in vermeintlichen Nischenbereichen, wie z. B. die Bundesbank oder das Archivwesen, bilden sie seit den 70er Jahren die Staatsdiener in Deutschland aus. So groß ihre tatsächliche Bedeutung für den öffentlichen Dienst auch ist, so unbekannt sind die Hochschulen allerdings in der Öffentlichkeit und in ihren Arbeiten für die Forschung und den Wissenstransfer. Dieser Kontrast zwischen der großen quantitativen Bedeutung der Hochschulen...
Forschung zwischen Freiheit und Verantwortung
Der Tagungsband „Forschung zwischen Freiheit und Verantwortung“ richtet seinen Fokus auf die historische Dimension der Wissenschaftsethik. Das Streben nach Erkenntnis ist ein Grundelement der conditio humana – der menschlichen Natur. Doch Wissenschaft – die Erkundung neuen Wissens und die Erforschung von Zusammenhängen – ist nicht voraussetzungslos. Sie gelingt vielmehr nur in Selbstbestimmung, und Selbstbestimmung bedeutet immer auch Eigenverantwortung. Der vorliegende Band beschäftigt sich mit ebendieser Dichotomie. Er weist anhand verschiedener historischer und rezenter Beispiele nach, dass „Wissenschaft“ nur dort gedeiht, wo es gelingt, Regeln für gute wissenschaftliche Praxis durchzusetzen und eine „Ethik der (Selbst-)Verantwortung“ zu etablieren. Zudem problematisiert er etwaige externe Kontrollmechanismen.

Jose Rizal
The global history of liberalism has paid too much attention to the West, neglecting the contributions of liberals from colonial nations. This book mines the thought of Filipino propagandist and novelist, Jose Rizal, to present a vision of liberalism for the colonized. It is both an introduction to Rizal and a treatise on rights, freedom, and tyranny in colonial contexts. Though a work on history, it responds to the illiberal present of rising authoritarianism and populism.
