Download or read book Issues in Science and Theology: What is Life? written by Dirk Evers and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-06-03 with total page 207 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the concept of Life from a range of perspectives. Divided into three parts, it first examines the concept of Life from physics to biology. It then presents insights on the concept from the perspectives of philosophy, theology, and ethics. The book concludes with chapters on the hermeneutics of Life, and pays special attention to the Biosemiotics approach to the concept. The question ‘What is Life?’ has been deliberated by the greatest minds throughout human history. Life as we know it is not a substance or fundamental property, but a complex process. It is not an easy task to develop an unequivocal approach towards Life combining scientific, semiotic, philosophical, theological, and ethical perspectives. In its combination of these perspectives, and its wide-ranging scope, this book opens up levels and identifies issues which can serve as intersections for meaningful interdisciplinary discussions of Life in its different aspects. The book includes the four plenary lectures and selected, revised and extended papers from workshops of the 14th European Conference on Science and Theology (ECST XIV) held in Tartu, Estonia, April 2012.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While Karl Barth is one of the most significant theologians of the twentieth century, his contribution to ethics is less well known and subject to controversy among interpreters. Barth combined his commitment to the church and its particular task in faith and theology with a concern for ethics and politics in wider society. By examining the historical development of Barth’s ethics, this study traces the vital influences and considerable shifts in Barth’s understanding of the ethical task, situating him within his political context. Alexander Massmann provides a comprehensive explication and assessment of the full scope of Barth’s ethics, from the first edition of the Romans commentary to the final volume of the Church Dogmatics. General questions of Barth’s methodology in ethics and case studies in applied ethics are both analyzed in their intricate connection to his dogmatic thought. The study highlights how an ethical approach emerged in which the freedom of the gospel allows for considerable openness to empirical insights from other disciplines. The author reevaluates Barth’s ethics in a constructive vision of the role of the church in the quest for a just society.

This book was released on 2014-09-17 with total page 255 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Markus Mühling presents an epistemological theory of revelation as perception and a relational-narrative theological ontology based on the concept of dramatic coherence, in which the triune life is understood not as an anomaly within ontology, but rather as the decisive condition of its possibility. Mühling further demonstrates that potential for resolving certain theological problems arises if new insights from the natural sciences, such as the theory of the ecological brain in the neurosciences and the theory of niche-construction in evolutionary theory, are taken into account. Similarly, he also proposes that neuroscience and evolutionary biology can procure advantages from a dialogue with theology.

Book excerpt: In this volume, nine renowned experts delineate their theoretical or methodological approach of Aikidô in potentiating constructive handling of social conflicts. The authors depict the contribution of the Japanese self-defensive art Aikidô to the theory and practice of conflict transformation. The concept of Elicitive Conflict Transformation (Lederach, Dietrich) necessarily calls for a revised understanding of applied peace work and a new personal profile of the conflict worker. This is the point where Aikidô and conflict/peace work meet.

Download or read book Staat und Demokratie in Europa written by Beate Kohler-Koch and published by VS Verlag für Sozialwissenschaften. This book was released on 1992-01-31 with total page 440 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mit dem Thema "Staat und Demokratie" wurde erneut eine der Kernfragen des Faches in den Mittelpunkt der Erörterungen eines DVPW-Kongresses gestellt. Die Konzeption des Kongresses und damit dieses Bandes setzt bei den tiefgreifenden Prozessen der Um gestaltung im institutionellen Arrangement von Staat, Gesellschaft und Wirtschaft an. Er gliedert sich in drei thematische Bereiche: - Zukunft des Staates Im Mittelpunkt steht eine grundlegende Reflexion über Staatlichkeit heute, die Hand lungsfähigkeit des Staates unter den Bedingungen internationaler Interdependenz und gewandelter interner Aufgabenlagen und gesellschaftlich-wirtschaftlicher Strukturie rungen und die normative Integration des demokratischen Staates der Gegenwart. - Konflikt und Konsensus In den östlichen Ländern zeichnen sich unterschiedliche Wege zu einer Wettbewerbsde mokratie ab, in den westlichen Ländern werden deren Grenzen immer deutlicher. Im Kern geht es somit um die Entwicklung neuer politischer Konflikt- und Konsensformen im Rahmen einer sich neu formierenden Staatlichkeit sowie um den staatlichen Restruk turierungsprozeß im Zuge der supranationalen Integration Westeuropas. - Die europäische Staatenwelt Die Bedeutung von Herrschaftsstrukturen und staatlicher Verfaßtheit für die Strukturie rung des internationalen Systems ist mit dem Ende des Ost-West-Konfliktes überdeutlich geworden. Dies lenkt die Aufmerksamkeit auf Grundsatzfragen wie die nach der Frie densfähigkeit von Demokratien, der Regelbarkeit zwischenstaatlicher Beziehungen und einer möglicherweise neuen Qualität internationaler Politik infolge von Veränderungen im innerstaatlichen Verhältnis von Politik und Wirtschaft. Der Fokus auf Europa drängte sich angesichts des Wandels der politischen Konflikt strukturen in Westeuropa, des Systemumbruchs in den vormals "realsozialistischen" Staaten aber auch angesichts der erneuten Dynamik des staatenübergreifenden Integra tionsprozesses in Westeuropa geradezu auf.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Carolyn Christov-Bakargiev reflects on the historical as well as personal notion of destruction and art, as well as on the potential healing power that art can have. Guiding us through a web of etymological, historical, philosophical, personal, and art historical references, she takes the reader from Melanie Klein's thinking about the dyadic relationship between mother and child and Walter Benjamin's reflection on Klee's Angelus Novus, to object studies starting with Man Ray's metronomes, his Objects of Destruction, and Lee Miller's photographs from the end of World War II, to Gustav Metzger's "Manifesto of Auto-Destruction," to melted objects from the Beirut National Museum and the blown-up Bamiyan Buddhas, which are accompanied by Michael Petzet's report of ICOMOS's response to the destroyed monuments, followed by artworks by Michael Rakowitz and drawings with poems by Anna Boghiguian, in addition to a postscript by art historian Dario Gamboni on the destruction of art, the concept of "world heritage," and the legislation around it. For Christov-Bakargiev, "the sphere of art is poised on the edge of the private and of history, and becomes the location where one can experiment the possibilities of being on the edge of the anthropocentric, where the rubble lies." Carolyn Christov-Bakargiev (*1957) is Artistic Director of dOCUMENTA (13). Language: English/German

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the third and final volume of a set of studies on the development of humanism in the northern Netherlands and the adjoining parts of Germany between 1469, when, in the oldest letters preserved of Rudolph Agricola and Rudolph von Langen, first mention is made of a group of early humanist scholars at the Adwert monastery near Groningen, and 1625, when the humanist Ubbo Emmius died, who was the first rector of the university of Groningen. The earlier two volumes are Rodolphus Agricola Phrisius (1444-1485) (1988) and Wessel Gansfort (1419-1489) and Northern Humanism (1993). This last volume has papers on Regnerus Praedinius (1510-1559), Alexander Hegius (ca.1433-1498), Alexander Candidus ( 1555), Wessel Gansfort (1419-1489), the Bremen Gymnasium Illustre between 1560-1630, humanist commentaries on Boethius, scholasticism and humanism, humanism and philosophy, Agricola Latinus, Ubbo Emmius's 'art of description', Agricola's dialectics at Louvain, Agricola on deliberative speech, humanism and reformation, Erasmus and geography, Agricola in Pavia, Dutch students at Italian universities (1425-1575), relations between Heidelberg and the Low Countries in the late 16th century, the Modern Devotion and humanism.Many of the papers were originally presented at a conference in 1996, but they have been extensively rewritten and edited, and a number of new pieces have been included. An updated bibliography in this volume makes the three volumes together an indispensable tool for scholars of philology, literature, history, philosophy and theology of the period.Contributors include: F.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Klugheit und Moralität werden gewöhnlich für gegensätzlich gehalten. Die Klugheit sagt uns, "Tue das, was Deinen Interessen am besten entspricht". Die Moralität dagegen verlangt von jedem von uns, das Richtige zu tun. Unter dem "Richtigen" wird meist das verstanden, was für jeden - oder zumindest für die meisten - das Beste ist. Die Autoren des Bandes wenden sich dem Problemfeld eine Entscheidung zwischen Klugheit und Moralität aus dem Blickwinkel der Spieltheorie zu. Sie versuchen nicht weniger als eine Theorie der praktischen Vernunft aufzustellen - für eine Welt, die naturwissenschaftlich und individualistisch bestimmt ist.

Download or read book The Pacific Challenge written by Werner Kreisel and published by Universitätsverlag Göttingen. This book was released on 2005 with total page 181 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The enormous leaps of growth and development experienced by Eastern and Southeast Asian states since the 1960s on account of their astonishing industrial development have led to concerns that a resulting global economic and political shift might favour the Pacific region at the expense of the "Atlantic region". A "Pacific century" was proclaimed, in which it was predicted that Asian-Pacific countries would outpace the traditional leading powers of the West. A more careful look quickly reveals that this view is too simplistic. From the point of view of various disciplines and covering different nations like China, Vietnam, Indonesia, Singapore, the Philippines and Papua New Guinea the authors of this publication pursue the question whether the 21st century can already be labelled the "Pacific Century". This was also the title of the interdisciplinary series of lectures held at the University of Göttingen/Germany in the winter semester 2003/2004. This series of lectures was jointly organized by the Department of Geography, the University of Göttingen and the Association of Pacific Studies e.V. (APSA). This 10th volume of the publication series "Pazifik Forum" contains contributions by W. Kreisel, M. Taube & Ka-Wai Yiu, M. Waibel, A. Croissant, B. Dahm, H. Schneider, R. Seib and R. Jordan.
