"Dieser Band fragt nach den Voraussetzungen und Folgen der medialen Nutzung des Computers - und zwar nicht in einer technikwissenschaftlichen Perspektive; den Autoren geht es vielmehr um geistes- bzw. kulturwissenschaftlich inspirierte Interpretationen der neuen Medien. Die Beiträge zentrieren sich um drei miteinander verwandte Themen: (1) In einer grundlagentheoretischen Perspektive wird die Frage gestellt: »Was ist ein Medium?« (2) Dann wird der Computer als ein Medium thematisiert. (3) Schließlich geht es um Veränderungen unseres Wirklichkeitsverständnisses im Gefolge von Phänomenen, die mit dem Einsatz digitalisierter Medien verbunden sind."

"Das vorliegende Buch handelt von der Geschichte der logischen Kombinatorik aus der Sicht der aktuellen Computertheorie. Dabei werden die entscheidenden Metamorphosen dieser Maschine erfaßt; die Beschränkungen der vereinzelten Wissenschaften werden aufgehoben zugunsten neuer Perspektiven. Denn am Ursprung der Denkmaschine überkreuzen sich verschiedene Diskurse. Die Spur der Ars Combinatoria führt aus der Kosmologie in eine Welt technischer Phänomene, alles treibt zur Maschine hin. Aus der Tradition kabbalistischer Kombinationslogik werden jene Schaltpläne geboren, die die universelle Maschine steuern. Athanasius Kirchers Schriften aus dem 17. Jahrhundert sind deren früheste Manuale..."

People with dementia experience their condition as a big change in which, for example, new events are not linked to existing experiences and wishes, thoughts, and actions can no longer be connected to each other. This kind of experience of the self, due to the intergative function of the brainbeing temporarily or permanently lost, is called dissociative self-experience. Based on this understanding of dementia, the author develops an approach to effectively understand and support people with dementia in everyday activities. Typical everyday situations and behaviours are presented and reflected on in a practical context.

This important book provides new understandings of how the politics of memory impacts peace in societies transitioning from a violent past. It does so by developing a theoretical approach focusing on the intersection of sites, agency, narratives, and events in memory-making. Drawing on rich empirical studies of mnemonic formations in Cyprus, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Rwanda, South Africa and Cambodia, the book speaks to a broad audience. The in-depth, cross-case analysis shows that inclusivity, pluralism, and dignity in memory politics are key to the construction of a just peace. The book contributes crucial and timely knowledge about societies that grapple with the painful legacies of the past and advances the study of memory and peace.
