Book Synopsis The Humboldtian Tradition by : Peter Josephson
Download or read book The Humboldtian Tradition written by Peter Josephson and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2014-05-28 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Humboldtian Tradition, eleven scholars consider Wilhelm von Humboldt as a historical phenomenon and a contemporary symbol. Inspired by the growing body of literature that in recent years has problematized the modern research university, they put Humboldt’s basic academic principles into context and discuss their significance for the current debate about higher education. The authors draw on the latest research in order to bring the educational and research policies of our day into perspective. At a time when the university is undergoing deep-seated transformations worldwide, they address the question how we should relate to the ideas associated with Humboldt’s name. What is his relevance to the twenty-first century? Contributors are: Mitchell Ash, Pieter Dhondt, Ylva Hasselberg, Marja Jalava, Peter Josephson, Thomas Karlsohn, Claudia Lindén, Johan Östling, Sharon Rider, Hans Ruin, Susan Wright.
Book Synopsis The Politics of Knowledge by : David L. Szanton
Download or read book The Politics of Knowledge written by David L. Szanton and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2004-09-20 with total page 440 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The usefulness and political implications of Area Studies programs are currently debated within the Academy and the Administration, where they are often treated as one homogenous and stagnant domain of scholarship. The essays in this volume document the various fields’ distinctive character and internal heterogeneity as well as the dynamism resulting from their evolving engagements with funders, US and international politics, and domestic constituencies. The authors were chosen for their long-standing interest in the intellectual evolution of their fields. They describe the origins and histories of US-based Area Studies programs, highlighting their complex, generative, and sometimes contentious relationships with the social science and humanities disciplines and their diverse contributions to the regions of the world with which they are concerned.
Download or read book Learning Places written by Masao Miyoshi and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2002-11-15 with total page 422 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Under globalization, the project of area studies and its relationship to the fields of cultural, ethnic, and gender studies has grown more complex and more in need of the rigorous reexamination that this volume and its distinguished contributors undertake. In the aftermath of World War II, area studies were created in large part to supply information on potential enemies of the United States. The essays in Learning Places argue, however, that the post–Cold War era has seen these programs largely degenerate into little more than public relations firms for the areas they research. A tremendous amount of money flows—particularly within the sphere of East Asian studies, the contributors claim—from foreign agencies and governments to U.S. universities to underwrite courses on their histories and societies. In the process, this volume argues, such funds have gone beyond support to the wholesale subsidization of students in graduate programs, threatening the very integrity of research agendas. Native authority has been elevated to a position of primacy; Asian-born academics are presumed to be definitive commentators in Asian studies, for example. Area studies, the contributors believe, has outlived the original reason for its construction. The essays in this volume examine particular topics such as the development of cultural studies and hyphenated studies (such as African-American, Asian-American, Mexican-American) in the context of the failure of area studies, the corporatization of the contemporary university, the prehistory of postcolonial discourse, and the problematic impact of unformulated political goals on international activism. Learning Places points to the necessity, the difficulty, and the possibility in higher education of breaking free from an entrenched Cold War narrative and making the study of a specific area part of the agenda of education generally. The book will appeal to all whose research has a local component, as well as to those interested in the future course of higher education generally. Contributors. Paul A.

Book Synopsis Science in the Third Reich by : Margit Szöllösi-Janze
Download or read book Science in the Third Reich written by Margit Szöllösi-Janze and published by . This book was released on 2001-03 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How true is it that National Socialism led to an ideologically distorted pseudo-science? What was the relationship between the regime funding 'useful' scientific projects and the scientists offering their expertise? And what happened to the German scientific community after 1945, especially to those who betrayed and denounced Jewish colleagues? In recent years, the history of the sciences in the Third Reich has become a field of growing importance, and the in-depth research of a new generation of German scholars provides us with new, important insights into the Nazi system and the complicated relationship between an elite and the dictatorship. This book portrays the attitudes of scientists facing National Socialism and war and uncovers the continuities and discontinuities of German science from the beginning of the twentieth century to the postwar period. It looks at ideas, especially the Humboldtian concept of the university; examines major disciplines such as eugenics, pathology, biochemistry and aeronautics, as well as technologies such as biotechnology and area planning; and it traces the careers of individual scientists as actors or victims. The striking results of these investigations fill a considerable gap in our knowledge of the Third Reich but also of the postwar role of German scientists within Germany and abroad.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Im Wintersemester 2013/14 feierte das Historische Institut der Universit�t Greifswald sein 150j�hriges Bestehen. Anl�sslich dieses Jubil�ums stellen die Autoren in diesem Band bekannte Greifswalder Historiker wie Ernst Moritz Arndt oder Ernst Bernheim vor - nicht ohne kritisch zu reflektieren, wie sich die Vertreter des ideologieanf�lligen Fachs Geschichte im Kaiserreich, in der Weimarer Republik, im Nationalsozialismus und in der Deutschen Demokratischen Republik positionierten. Kernst�ck des Bandes bilden die Beitr�ge der am Historischen Institut t�tigen Lehrstuhlinhaber: Sie zeichnen die Geschichte ihrer jeweiligen Disziplin im 19. und 20. Jahrhundert nach. Des Weiteren beleuchten Dozenten des Historischen Instituts die Gelehrtengeschichte der vergangenen hundert Jahre, die Rezeption Ernst Moritz Arndts sowie Fragen der Geschichtsmethodik. Zwei einf�hrende Aufs�tze geben �ber die Entwicklung der Geschichtswissenschaften in Greifswald Auskunft - von den Anf�ngen, noch vor der Gr�ndung des Instituts im Jahr 1863, bis in die heutige Zeit. Ein Personenregister erschlie�t den reichhaltigen Band.
