September 1975Reflexion und kommunikative Erfahrung
Untersuchungen zur Stellung philosophischer Reflexion zwischen Theorie und Kritik
by Wolfgang Kuhlmann
Bei seinem Versuch, den Ort philosophischer Reflexion zwischen distanzierender Theorie und immanenter Kritik systematisch zu bestimmen, geht Wolfgang Kuhlmann von einer aporetischen Zuspitzung des Problems in der Kantkritik Hegels aus, konzentriert das Problem auf die Frage, wie radikale Erkenntniskritik möglich sei, und stößt auf dem Wege einer Rekonstruktion der logischen Genese der Erkenntniskritik (und der theoretischen Reflexion) auf den für die Arbeit zentralen Zusammenhang zwischen Reflexion und kommunikatier Erfahrung.

September 1993Riskante Technologien: Reflexion und Regulation
Einführung in die sozialwissenschaftliche Risikoforschung. Herausgegeben von Wolfgang Krohn und Georg Krücken
by Georg Krücken, Wolfgang Krohn
Riskante Technologien umgeben Alltag und Berufswelt des modernen Menschen. Schon darüber, ob tatsächlich die Gefahren zunehmen oder aber unsere Wahrnehmungen und die öffentliche Aufmerksamkeit gesteigert wurden, ist ein interessanter Streit entbrannt, der in diesem Band aus kultur- und sozialtheoretischer Perspektive dokumentiert ist. Das Problem der politischen und sozialen Akzeptanz neuer Technologien hat Verfahren zur Risikoeinschätzung und –bewertung hervorgebracht, die die theoretische Reflexion über riskante Technologien stärken und ihre praktische Regulation beeinflussen. Diese Instrumentarien, ihre Reichweite und Grenzen werden in diesem Band vorgestellt. Ein weiterer gesellschaftlicher Streitpunkt ist die Frage, wie die Regulierung riskanter Technologien aussehen sollte: sollte die Politik stärker auf die Vermeidung von Risiken setzen, oder sollte sie wegen des erwarteten Nutzens auch Schadensfälle in Kauf nehmen? Sozialwissenschaftliche Analysen und Positionen in dieser Debatte werden durch verschiedene, zum Teil kontroverse Beiträge dargestellt. Der Band versammelt Autoren, die international maßgebliche Beiträge zu den verschiedenen Aspekten der sozialwissenschaftlichen Risikoforschung geleistet haben. Ihnen vorangestellt ist eine ausführliche Einleitung in die sozialwissenschaftliche Risikoforschung, die auch einen Überblick über den sachlichen Zusammenhang der Beiträge gibt. Eine nach Sachgruppen strukturierte Bibliographie erleichtert die Orientierung und Weiterarbeit.

Personal & social issues: self-awareness & self-esteem (Children's/YA)Picture Books about Emotion Management for Girls
by Le Fan, Liu Chanjuan, Liu Jiaxi
While growing up, girls are more likely than boys to receive contradictory expectations from different aspects of their lives: parents, teachers, peers, society, and themselves. They could be rebellious but at the same time remain "good girls". They could express anger against bullies at school while simultaneously meeting teachers' expectations of nonaggressive behavior. They could be powerful and competitive at the same time that they worry about being considered "unfeminine". Girls struggle with these conflicting messages in their everyday lives, trying to please all these other people and losing track of themselves. Writer Le Fan, who has experienced the same contradictions as growing up, hopes that girls could love themselves, put themselves first a little more. So here comes the Picture Books about Emotion Management for Girls. The series contains five stories of five courageous little girls who were experiencing confusion in their lives. Little Le Fan in I am not Just a Good Girl tried to find the balance between two sides of herself—a cool girl and a good girl. Xiaoxiao in I love myself learned to be more confident and accepted her new look after her baby teeth fell out. Jiang in I'm so Jealous learned to deal with jealousy towards her best friend. A timid girl Xiao in I can Say No strived to express herself and stop the little boy's bullies. Feng in I Really Want to Win embraced her inner "tomboy" with daddy's encouragement. All the five little girls, though struggling, broke out of cultural and societal stereotypes swirling around them and became their true selves.

Humanities & Social SciencesJune 2023Border images, border narratives
The political aesthetics of boundaries and crossings
by Johan Schimanski, Jopi Nyman
This interdisciplinary volume explores the role of images and narratives in different borderscapes. Written by experienced scholars in the field, Border images, border narratives provides fresh insight into how borders, borderscapes, and migration are imagined and narrated in public and private spheres. Offering new ways to approach the political aesthetics of the border and its ambiguities, this volume makes a valuable contribution to the methodological renewal of border studies and presents ways of discussing cultural representations of borders and related processes. Influenced by the thinking of philosopher Jacques Rancière, this timely volume argues that narrated and mediated images of borders and borderscapes are central to the political process, as they contribute to the public negotiation of borders and address issues such as the in/visiblity of migrants and the formation of alternative borderscapes. The contributions analyse narratives and images in literary texts, political and popular imagery, surveillance data, border art, and documentaries, as well as problems related to borderland identities, migration, and trauma. The case studies provide a highly comparative range of geographical contexts ranging from Northern Europe and Britain, via Mediterranean and Mexican-USA borderlands, to Chinese borderlands from the perspectives of critical theory, literary studies, social anthropology, media studies, and political geography.

Early learning / early learning conceptsOctober 2017Una cabeza distinta (A different head)
by Luis Panini, Chiara Carrer
This child tells us that he is not happy with the head that he has. He thinks it is a wrong head. The parents, after listening to him, take him to a specialist, who agrees with the little one. A mysterious man dressed in black supplies him with heads in exchange for his own. The child tries several, until he finds the one he was looking for. A reindeer head, a crocodile head, a whisk head: the narrator child and protagonist of this story tells us about his disagreement with the head he has and the vicissitudes that he has to go through to find the head with which he will finally agree: the head of a grown man, of a mathematician. This is a story of search for identity and growth, developed with fine fantasy and humor, with the wisdom of someone he has sought and perhaps already found.
