Smart wird man nur gemeinsam
Der Nachfolgeband zu dem 2019 erschienenen Band „Smart Libraries – Konzepte, Methoden und Strategien“ rückt die Partizipation stärker in den Vordergrund. Die Ereignisse der letzten zwei Jahre zeigen auf, dass die erfolgreiche Transformation in eine zukunftsfähige Bibliothek nur als gemeinsame Aufgabe gelingt, wenn das Wissen aller Beteiligten in den Prozess einfließen kann. In diesem Band wird das Thema „Partizipation“ daher – auch kritisch – aus unterschiedlichen Blickwinkeln betrachtet. Methodisch und prozessorientiert, wenn es beispielsweise um das Thema Agilität oder agiles Lernen geht. Mehrere Beiträge stellen dar, wie die Beteiligung von Bürgerinnen im Rahmen von C...
Married Life
David Vogel has long been regarded as a leading figure of Hebrew literature, and his work has been compared to that of Joseph Roth, Thomas Mann, and Franz Kafka. Married Life, which was first published in 1929, is Vogel’s magnum opus — a sweeping portrait of a doomed marriage and a doomed city. Set in Vienna, the novel tells of the relationship between the penniless writer Rudolf Gurdweill and Baroness Thea von Takow, who treats her husband with cruelty and disdain. In spite of this, Gurdweill struggles to find the will to leave his wife, even when the devoted Lotte Bondheim offers him the prospect of true happiness. Yet this is no mere story of a love triangle. In astonishingly vivid detail, Vogel evokes the atmosphere of 1920s Vienna, taking us from fashionable cafés and aristocratic estates to the shoemaker’s workshop and the almshouse. With decadence and poverty existing side by side, Vienna is depicted as a city on the brink of collapse — a haunting prefigurement of the horrors to come. With its rich, vital prose, and its profound insight into the human condition, Married Life is truly a modern classic.

The Right to Education in India
What does it mean for education to be a fundamental right, and how may children benefit from it? Surprisingly, even when the right to education was added to the Indian Constitution as Article 21A, this question barely received any attention. The book identifies justiciability—or, more broadly, enforceability—as the most important feature of Article 21A, meaning that children and their parents must be provided with means to effectively claim their right from the State; otherwise, it would remain a ‘right’ only on paper. The book highlights how lack of access to the Indian judiciary means that the constitutional promise of justiciability remains unfulfilled. It deals with the possible alternative means the State may provide for the poor to claim the benefits under Article 21A, and identifies the grievance-redress mechanism created by the ‘Right of Children to Free and Compulsory Education Act, 2009’ as a potential system of enforcement. Even though this system is found to be deficient, the book concludes with an optimistic outlook, hoping that rights advocates may, in the future, focus on improving such mechanisms for legal empowerment.

Die Regierung der Gene
Der Band präsentiert die Ergebnisse der ersten umfassenden und systematischen Untersuchung genetischer Diskriminierung in Deutschland. Das empirische Material besteht aus einer Fragebogenerhebung und aus Interviews mit Betroffenen verschiedener genetisch bedingter Erkrankungen. Es zeigt, wie das genetische Wissen mit Kränkungen, Schuldzuweisungen und Stigmatisierungen einhergeht und Vorstellungen einer „genetischen Verantwortung“ mobilisiert. Die Untersuchungsergebnisse legen die Revision des klassischen Begriffs von genetischer Diskriminierung nahe und fordern zu einer Neuausrichtung der sozialwissenschaftlichen Auseinandersetzung mit dem Thema auf.
