        Die Psychologie der Lebensspanne

        by Lawrence Kohlberg, Detlef Garz, Wolfgang Althof, Detlef Garz, Detlef Garz, Wolfgang Althof

        "Nach dem erfolgreichen Band Die Psychologie der Moralentwicklungfolgt Kohlberg in Die Psychologie der Lebensspanne der zentralen Idee, den Menschen auf seinen verschiedenen Entwicklungsstufen als »Philosophen« zu sehen: Philosoph zu sein bedeutet, sich mit der sozialen und physischen Welt zu konfrontieren, sie zu konstruieren und sich in dieser Auseinandersetzung zu entwickeln. Dabei wird »Entwicklung« - anders als im übrigen Werk Kohlbergs - nicht auf den Bereich der Moral eingegrenzt, sondern in einem umfassenderen Sinn verstanden. Die Bildung des Selbst, verbunden mit den jeweiligen altersspezifischen Problemen und Krisen, steht darum im Mittelpunkt der Untersuchungen: die Überwindung des kindlichen Egozentrismus; die Identitätsbildung in der Adoleszenz u.a. Diese Etappen werden entwicklungspsychologisch systematisiert und im Zusammenhang zentraler Bezugstheorien von Erikson, Piaget, Marcia, Gilligan, Perry und Fowler reflektiert."

        Mathieu Kassovitz

        by Will Higbee, Diana Holmes, Robert Ingram

        Mathieu Kassovitz is arguably the most important filmmaker to have emerged from French cinema in the past two decades. As a director, his work often engages with highly controversial socio-political issues whilst still managing to attract and connect with a popular audience - and, above all, with a youth audience. He is also one of the few contemporary French filmmakers who is capable of productively engaging with Hollywood, in terms of cinematic style, narrative and genre, yet still retaining his own identity as a French filmmaker. In addition to his directorial successes, Kassovitz has also achieved considerable critical and commercial success in France as a screen actor. His films - whether directed by or acted in, or both - show an astonishing variety, from his early Métisse (1993), his break-through, La Haine (1995) through to Jeunet's Le fabuleux destin d'Amélie Poulain (2000), Astérix et Obélix: Mission Cléopatre (2002) and Gothika (2003). Will Higbee's study is the first to explore of one of the most fascinating characters in French cinema. ;

        Die Erfindung des Westens

        Eine deutsche Geschichte mit Will McBride

        by Ulf Erdmann Ziegler, Will McBride

        Dieses Buch erzählt vom deutschen Abenteuer eines amerikanischen Puritaners, der »die Anfänge liebte«. Will McBride kam 1953 mit der US-Armee nach Deutschland und blieb. In West-Berlin erfand er die »Clique«, die melancholisch gestimmt ihr Vergnügen suchte. Mit diesem Motiv wurde er Fotograf der neuen Zeitschrift twen und bald ein Star seines Fachs. Die Aufnahme seiner Frau Barbara als Schwangerer gereichte zum Skandal. In den sechziger Jahren betrieb er in München ein riesiges Studio, in dem die Bilder für Zeig Mal! entstanden, das paradigmatische Aufklärungsbuch der sozialliberal verjüngten Republik. Von Worpswede bis in die Toskana suchte McBride nach einer frischen Form für einen überzeugenden Lebensstil. Die biographischen Recherchen des Autors summieren sich zu einer alternativen Kulturgeschichte der Bundesrepublik. Gastauftritte haben Willy Fleckhaus, Donna Summer, Hans Filbinger, Willy Brandt, Norman Rockwell und Wolfram Siebeck. Eine Auswahl von McBrides besten schwarzweißen Fotografien begleitet die ungewöhnliche Erzählung von der »Erfindung des Westens«.

        Gender Equity & Reconciliation

        Thirty Years of Healing the Most Ancient Wound in the Human Family

        by Will Keepin and Cynthia Brix

        How can we move forward beyond the anger and outrage to heal and transform, in practical ways, the vast crisis of relations between women and men, and among people of all genders? This book addresses that question. Over the past 30 years, the Gender Equity and Reconciliation International (GERI) project has convened over 300 intensive workshops and trainings in 12 countries, for more than 7,000 people on 6 continents. These groups have engaged in a deep process of unraveling the systemic knots of gender conflicts and developed practical skills for transforming gender relations from the inside out. Another 22,000 people have been introduced to the GERI process in conferences and trainings. Inspired by the principles of Truth and Reconciliation developed by the late Archbishop Desmond Tutu of South Africa, the GERI project has a longstanding record. This book is full of inspiring stories that document how the methodology of deep truth-telling and collective alchemy dissolves root causes of gender conflict, through skillfully facilitated, heart-centered transformational experiences, which are followed up with ongoing peer support. With contributions from 12 distinguished world leaders in this field, and special inserts from such notable persons as Stanislav Grof, MD, Jetsunma Tenzin Palmo, and Peter Rutter, MD, this book is an invaluable resource for laypersons and professionals, educators and religious leaders who are thoughtfully addressing the gender-based conflicts and needs of young and old in their own homes, therapy practices, organizations and congregations across the globe. Will Keepin, Ph.D. and Rev. Cynthia Brix, Ph.D., are co-founders of Gender Equity & Reconciliation, International.

        by Carol Southall, Lynn Minnaert, Nazia Ali, Ade Oriade, Allan Watson, Glen Croy, Ralf C Buckley, Dallen J Timothy, Steven Rhoden, Alison Caffyn, Richard Benfield, Cheng-Fei Lee, Sheela Agarwal, Graham Busby, Rong Huang

        Special interest tourism is growing rapidly due to a discerning and heterogeneous travel market and the demand for more focused activity or interest-based tourism experiences. This book approaches the topic from the perspective of both supply and demand, and addresses the complexities now inherent in this area of tourism. It presents a contextualised overview of contemporary academic research, concepts, principles and industry-based practice insights, and also considers the future of special interest tourism in light of the emergence of ethical consumerism. With a clear, user-friendly structure, the book: -Links theoretical frameworks to clear practical applications. -Reviews key emerging issues for tourism relating to families and faith, the performing arts, active and passive pursuits, therapeutic leisure and travelling. -Includes contributions and case studies from international academics and practitioners to give a truly global overview. Sometimes referred to as niche or contemporary tourism, this book provides a complete introduction to the study of special interest tourism for students.
