Book Synopsis Die moralischen Grenzen des Marktes by : Prof. Ingo Pies
Download or read book Die moralischen Grenzen des Marktes written by Prof. Ingo Pies and published by Verlag Herder GmbH. This book was released on 2017-03-02 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Michael J. Sandel, der an der Harvard University politische Philosophie lehrt, ruft in dem hier erstmals in deutscher Übersetzung vorgelegten grundlegenden Text "Marktdenken als Moraldenken: Warum Ökonomen sich wieder stärker auf Politische Philosophie einlassen sollten" die Wissenschaftsdisziplin der Ökonomik dazu auf, sich wieder verstärkt auf ihre historischen und ethischen Wurzeln zu besinnen. Das ökonomische Selbstverständnis als wertfreie Wissenschaft hält er für ein Selbst-Missverständnis. Seiner Auffassung nach kann die Ökonomik ihrer gesellschaftlichen Aufgabe nur dann nachkommen, wenn sie sich (wieder) mit den moralischen Grenzen des Marktes beschäftigt. Bloße Effizienzüberlegungen reichen hierfür nicht aus. Vielmehr hält Sandel es für erforderlich, Fairness-Fragen gleicher oder ungleicher Behandlung auf Märkten deutlich mehr Aufmerksamkeit zu schenken. Vor allem aber kommt es ihm darauf an, die Möglichkeit ins Zentrum der Betrachtung zu rücken, dass Märkte sich negativ auf moralische Normen und Werte auswirken können, mit der bedenklichen Folge, dass eine an sich wünschenswerte Praxis korrumpiert wird. Deshalb warnt Sandel vor einem immer weiteren Ausgreifen des Marktes auf andere gesellschaftliche Bereiche, und er wirft der Mainstream-Ökonomik vor, einem solchen Ausgreifen unkritisch und sogar unreflektiert das Wort zu reden. Dieser Band leitet dazu an, sich mit den Thesen von Sandel intensiv und kritisch auseinanderzusetzen. Auf seinen im Original und in Übersetzung abgedruckten Aufsatz folgen u.a. dreizehn Kurzkommentare (von Klaus Beckmann, Markus Beckmann, Gerhard Engel, Johannes Fioole, Andrea Maurer, Ingo Pies, Birger P. Priddat, Christian Rennert, Michael Schramm, Robert Skok, Richard Sturn und Reinhard Zintl), die Sandels Thesen von verschiedenen Blickwinkeln aus beleuchten.

Book Synopsis Receptions of Antiquity by : Jan Nelis
Download or read book Receptions of Antiquity written by Jan Nelis and published by Academia Press. This book was released on 2011 with total page 379 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This volume presents a series of papers which cover the general theme of the reception of antiquity, a topic which has in recent years become a discipline in itself, or what some might call a 'cross-discipline'. Indeed the Nachleben of the (culture of) classical antiquity, and of antiquity as a whole, manifests in a number of diverse domains, opening up the field of reception studies to scholars from disciplines other than Classics. This collection of papers illustrates this diversity, uniting as it does original research by scholars from a variety of disciplines: classicists, historians, theatre historians, architectural historians, psychologists, archaeologists, artists, and more, all of whom have treated some aspect of the so-called 'classical tradition' by means of their own individual approaches, leading to a volume rich and dense in themes and methodologies. 'Receptions of antiquity' has been written by friends of Freddy Decreus, in honour of his career, and in celebration of his thought."--
Book Synopsis Headstrong and Unorthodox Pioneers for a Critical Theory of Consumption by : Michael-Burkhard Piorkowsky
Download or read book Headstrong and Unorthodox Pioneers for a Critical Theory of Consumption written by Michael-Burkhard Piorkowsky and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-08-28 with total page 177 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume offers contributions on the fundamentals of current consumption theory and consumption research, which have developed almost entirely from originally unorthodox approaches against traditional micro- and macroeconomic theory. The inspiration came mainly from social economic behavioural research and ecological economics. But the reception is very patchy and the history is largely forgotten. With reference to the work of earlier authors, new arguments are offered to the current discussion about delimitations and paradoxes in consumption and the still narrowly understood consumer role. It is as much about rework in sharpening the understanding of consumption and consumers in their lifeworlds as it is about indications of fruitfulness for the analysis of open questions. It is about arguments for a paradigmatic reorientation of consumer research and policy. The contributions address in particular ambivalences, options and future modes in consumption in the search for individual satisfaction and ecological sustainability. This book is a translation of an original German edition. The translation was done with the help of artificial intelligence (machine translation by the service DeepL.com). A subsequent human revision was done primarily in terms of content, so that the book will read stylistically differently from a conventional translation.
Book Synopsis Globalisation – Cultures – Religions / Globalisierung – Kulturen – Religionen by :
Download or read book Globalisation – Cultures – Religions / Globalisierung – Kulturen – Religionen written by and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2006-01-01 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The process of Globalisation has subjected cultures, religions and societies or communities of the world to fundamental changes, which are primarily characterised and conditioned by new communication technologies, migration, worldwide exchange of goods and capital. This development has led to the rise of plural societies, which not only mean chances and opportunities but also a potential of threat for the future of humanity. Subsequent to this development this international conference addresses the question of how living together in a global age could succeed and be fruitful. Im Zuge des Globalisierungsprozesses befinden sich alle Kulturen, Religionen und damit alle Gesellschaften der Welt in einem grundlegenden Wandel, der vor allem durch neue Kommunikationstechnologien, Migration, weltweiten Austausch von Kapital und Gütern bedingt ist. Diese Entwicklung hat zur Entstehung pluraler Gesellschaften geführt, die nicht nur eine Chance, sondern auch ein Bedrohungspotenzial für die Zukunft der Menschheit bedeutet. Vor diesem Hintergrund stellt sich für die Tagung die Frage, wie ein Zusammenleben der Menschen in einer zunehmend multireligiösen und multikulturellen Welt gelingen kann
Book Synopsis Material Fantasies by : Milena Veenis
Download or read book Material Fantasies written by Milena Veenis and published by Amsterdam University Press. This book was released on 2012 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This study of East German fantasies of material abundance across the border, both before and after the fall of communism, shows the close and intricate relation between ideology and fantasy in upholding social life. In 1989, news broadcasts all over the world were dominated for weeks by images of East Germans crossing the Berlin Wall to West Germany. The images, representing the fall of communism and the democratic will of the people, also showed East Germans' excitement at finally being able to enter the western consumer paradise. But what exactly had they expected to find on the other side of the Wall? Why did they shed tears of joy when for the first time in their lives, they stepped inside West German shops? And why were they prepared to pay more than 10 percent of their average monthly wage for a pineapple? Drawing on fifteen months of research in the fast-changing post-communist East Germany, Veenis unravels the perennial truths about the interrelationships of fantasies of material wealth, personal fulfillment and social cohesion. She argues persuasively that the far-fetched socialist and capitalist promises of consumption as the road to ultimate well-being, the partial realization and partial corruption thereof, the implicit social and psychological interests underlying the politicized promises in both countries form the breeding ground for the development of materialist, cargo-cult-like fantasies, in which material well-being came to be seen as the place of "fulfillment and ultimate arrival"."--Publisher's website.

Book Synopsis Handbook of the Anthropocene by : Nathanaël Wallenhorst
Download or read book Handbook of the Anthropocene written by Nathanaël Wallenhorst and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-08-21 with total page 1595 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Handbook is a collection of contributions of more than 300 researchers who have worked to grasp the Anthropocene, this new geological epoch characterised by a modification of the conditions of habitability of the Earth for all living things, in its biogeophysical and socio-political reality. These researchers also sought to define a historical and prospective anthropology that integrates social, economic, cultural and political issues as well as, of course, environmental ones. What are the anthropological changes needed to ensure that our human adventure will be able to continue in the Anthropocene? And what are the educational and political issues involved? Anthropocene is fast becoming a widely-used term, but thus far, there been no reference work explaining the thoughts of the greatest experts of the present day on this subject (at the intersection of biogeophysical and socio-political knowledge). A scientific and political concept (but which is also the conceptual vehicle for conveying the scientific community's sense of concern), this complex term is explained by international experts as they reflect on scientific arguments taking place in earth system science, the social sciences and the humanities. What these researchers from different disciplines have in common is a healthy concern for the future and how to prepare for it in the Anthropocene and also the identification of possible anthropological changes. This Handbook encourages readers to immerse themselves in reflections on the human adventure through descriptions of our differing heritages and the future that is in the process of being written.
Book Synopsis Psychology of Sustainability by : Marcel Hunecke
Download or read book Psychology of Sustainability written by Marcel Hunecke and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-10-19 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book analyzes key findings and developments of psychology for sustainable development. The starting point is a discussion of the established literature of environmental psychology in regards to which factors influence environment-related behavior. Afterwards, the author discusses strategies and interventions that can promote sustainable behavior. It is very important that in order to increase the effectiveness of environmental psychological interventions, these must be first contextualized socially. Furthermore, interventions that aim to bring about a socio-ecological transformation should also focus on the goal of subjective well-being. Overall, the findings of environmental psychology are brought together with theories from positive psychology and the approach of psychological resources from positive psychology and the approach of psychological resources from health psychology to answer the question: How can the socio-ecological transformation of a consumer society be supported by an inner transformation of human beings. An answer to this question is provided by the promotion of six psychological resources for sustainable lifestyles: mindfulness, capacity for pleasure, self-acceptance, self-efficacy, construction of meaning and solidarity can both promote individual well-being and increase motivation for sustainable behavior.
Book Synopsis Dialectological and Folk Dialectological Concepts of Space by : Sandra Hansen
Download or read book Dialectological and Folk Dialectological Concepts of Space written by Sandra Hansen and published by Walter de Gruyter. This book was released on 2012-10-30 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In variational linguistics, the concept of space has always been a central issue. However, different research traditions considering space coexisted for a long time separately. Traditional dialectology focused primarily on the diatopic dimension of linguistic variation, whereas in sociolinguistic studies diastratic and diaphasic dimensions were considered. For a long time only very few linguistic investigations tried to combine both research traditions in a two-dimensional design – a desideratum which is meant to be compensated by the contributions of this volume. The articles present findings from empirical studies which take on these different concepts and examine how they relate to one another. Besides dialectological and sociolinguistic concepts also a lay perspective of linguistic space is considered, a paradigm that is often referred to as “folk dialectology”. Many of the studies in this volume make use of new computational possibilities of processing and cartographically representing large corpora of linguistic data. The empirical studies incorporate findings from different linguistic communities in Europe and pursue the objective to shed light on the inter-relationship between the different concepts of space and their relevance to variational linguistics.

This book was released on 2021-03-08 with total page 363 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Über die Epochen hinweg haben sich literarische Werke und Genres explizit oder implizit mit dem Kapitalismus auseinandergesetzt. Doch gerade die vergangenen Jahrzehnte, in welchen der Kapitalismus nach Mark Fisher zum ausweglosen Vorstellungshorizont avanciert ist, zeugen von einer vermehrten Infragestellung des Kapitalismus in der literarischen Produktion sowie der Literaturwissenschaft. Vor diesem Hintergrund vereint der interdisziplinäre Sammelband Beiträge aus der Germanistik, Romanistik, Amerikanistik und Anglistik, die den Blick auf verschiedene zeitgenössische Manifestationen des globalen Kapitalismus und deren literarische oder filmische Repräsentationen richten.
