        Dark Tourism and Pilgrimage

        by Daniel H Olsen, Maximiliano E Korstanje

        In recent years there has been a growth in both the practice and research of dark tourism; the phenomenon of visiting sites of tragedy or disaster. Expanding on this trend, this book examines dark tourism through the new lens of pilgrimage. It focuses on dark tourism sites as pilgrimage destinations, dark tourists as pilgrims, and pilgrimage as a form of dark tourism. Taking a broad definition of pilgrimage so as to consider aspects of both religious and non-religious travel that might be considered pilgrimage-like, it covers theories and histories of dark tourism and pilgrimage, pilgrimage to dark tourism sites, and experience design. A key resource for researchers and students of heritage, tourism and pilgrimage, this book will also be of great interest to those studying anthropology, religious studies and related social science subjects.

        by Jürgen Rahmig

        — Water as a reason for war and a political instrument of power — Unique overview of global water conflicts — Foreword by Wolfgang Ischinger Every year, droughts in African countries cause hundreds of thousands of deaths and much suffering. Europe also experienced drought in 2022's summer of record temperatures. Without water, there can be no life. More and more people are suffering from water shortages. Climate change is fuelling the distribution battles for water; violent conflicts over this precious resource are the order of the day. Whether the protests in Iraq, the war in Syria, in the Himalayas, the Nile conflict and in many other places, water is already a reason for war and is being misused as a political instrument of power. The construction of huge dams, the targeted closure of locks, river diversions, water and land grabbing bring wars over the "blue gold" with them. In a unique overview, journalist Jürgen Rahmig describes the struggle for water in the 21st century. Where do dangers lurk today; where will they be tomorrow, and how can we prevent wars over precious water?

        Roman

        by Ahn Do-Hyun, Hyuk Sook Kim, Manfred Selzer

        Sanft wiegt der Grüne Fluss die Lachse auf ihrem Weg zum Oberlauf, dem Ort, wo sie geboren wurden. Sie sind weit geschwommen, haben den Fluten des Ozeans getrotzt und sind mutig den Wasserfall hinaufgesprungen – sie sind ihrer Bestimmung gefolgt und haben getan, was Lachse eben so tun. Doch einer unter ihnen, Silberlachs, will sich nicht damit zufriedengeben – der Sinn seines Daseins muss doch aus mehr bestehen, als blind dem Schwarm zu folgen? Immer wieder streckt er den Kopf aus dem Wasser und blickt sehnsüchtig in die Welt da draußen, gar bis zu den Sternen hinauf. Er will frei sein. Doch seine geliebte Freundin Klarauge warnt ihn davor, Regenbogen nachzujagen. Warum bin ich auf der Welt? Was braucht es zum Glück? Die Geschichte des Fisches, der zu träumen wagte, hat Millionen von Lesern verzaubert. Ahn Do-Hyun stellt mit leichter Hand die großen Fragen des Lebens. Denn im weiten Universum ist jeder nur ein kleiner Fisch – und doch ist jedes Leben einzigartig und wunderbar.
