        Der Süden / Bene

        Spanische Bibliothek

        by Adelaida García Morales, Anne Sorg-Schumacher, Imme Bergmaier

        Der Vater tot, die Mutter fort, das Haus verwaist. Nach dem Suizid ihres Vaters sucht die Erzählerin von Der Süden das Zwiegespräch mit dem Verstorbenen. Wer war der Mann, der dem Kind so rätselhaft erschien? Ein Zauberer, der mit seiner Wünschelrute Verborgenes aufspürt? Ihr Verbündeter gegen die verbitterte Mutter? Auf der Suche nach seinem Geheimnis begibt sie sich in den Süden – doch was anfangen mit Antworten, die zu spät kommen? Karges Land, verrümpelte Turmzimmer, Eukalyptuswälder – abgründig sind die Schauplätze der Kindheit, die Adelaida García Morales in Bene erzählt. Ein mysteriöses neues Dienstmädchen bringt das eintönige Familienleben ins Wanken. Bene ist verwandt mit Bettlern, vorlaut, frivol – und darf doch bleiben. Ist es die Milde des Vaters oder steckt mehr dahinter? Zwischen Aberglauben, Antiziganismus und Albträumen forscht die Erzählerin nach der Wahrheit. Adelaida García Morales' Novellen sind magische Beschwörungen der Vergangenheit. Lakonisch und eindringlich erzählen sie von Familie, Leid und obsessiver Liebe. Wie, fragen sie unaufhörlich, kann man Trauer in Sinn verwandeln?

        Theorietechnik und Moral

        by Niklas Luhmann, Stephan H. Pfürtner

        "Die Beiträge zu diesem Band haben ihren Ausgangspunkt in der Frage, ob eine moralfreie Theorie der Moral möglich und ob sie wissenschaftlich boten ist. Angesichts einer langen, ergebnislosen Diskussion der Wertfreiheit der Wissenschaft wird dieses Thema hier nicht wissenschaftstheoretisch weiterbehandelt. Statt dessen versuchen die Autoren vorzuführen, wie verschiedene Auffassungen zu diesem Thema durchführbar sind. Die vier Zugangsweisen, die sie wählen, sind: funktionale Analyse; ein Herauspräparieren der Grenzen, die der wissenschaftlichen Begriffsbildung durch die Besonderheit des Gegenstandes der Moral gezogen sind; eine Fallanalyse; Typenbildung. Das Ziel ist, mit der theorietechnischen Ausarbeitung möglicher Optionen Klarheit über die Möglichkeit einer moralfreien Theorie der Moral und über Moral se zu gewinnen."

        The ethics of researching the far right

        Critical approaches and reflections

        by Antonia Vaughan, Joan Braune, Meghan Tinsley, Aurelien Mondon

        At a time when far, radical, and extreme-right politics are becoming increasingly mainstream globally - sometimes with deadly consequences - research in these fields is essential to understand the most effective ways to combat these dangerous ideologies. Yet engaging with texts and movements that do physical and verbal violence raises a number of urgent ethical issues. Until recently, this has remained understudied, as scholarship on the far right rarely delves explicitly and critically into the ethics of research. This book seeks to remedy this significant gap in an otherwise extensive and growing literature. Originating from a workshop series in 2020, in which an international group of academics at various career stages shared the ethical challenges and best practices they had developed in their research, this edited collection draws together insights from these ongoing conversations, offering urgent critical reflections on key ethical issues.
