50 Schlüsselideen Politik

Eine Entdeckungsreise durch die Welt der politischen Theorien und Strömungen, Staatsformen und gesellschaftlichen Herausforderungen _____ In einer Zeit weitverbreiteter Politikverdrossenheit und vielfältiger internationaler Verwerfungen ist die Notwendigkeit, die grundlegenden politischen Konzepte zu verstehen, größer denn je. 50 Schlüsselideen Politik ist der ideale Einstieg in dieses Themenfeld. Die Welt ist zusammengewachsen – und zugleich unüberschaubar komplex geworden. In allen Sphären der Politik wirken vielfältige Einflüsse, auf regionaler wie globaler Ebene. Fundamentalistische Kräfte bedrohen unsere Freiheit und Sicherheit – und provozieren Gegenreaktionen von Regierungen, die ihrerseits Persönlichkeits- und Menschenrechte wie auch die Demokratie insgesamt einschneidend gefährden können. Kriege und diktatorische Regime, Betrug und Korruption lösen Proteste und öffentliche Entrüstung aus, die oftmals durch Propaganda, parteipolitische Einflussnahme und interessengeleitete Medienaktivitäten geschürt wird. Die angemessenen Handlungsgrenzen des Staates, die Legitimität von Revolution und politischer Gewalt, die ideologischen Gegensätze und Spannungen zwischen Sozialismus, Liberalismus und Kapitalismus, die Herausforderungen, vor die uns Armut, Kriminalität und Rassismus stellen: Solche und andere Mechanismen sind grundlegend für das Verständnis aktueller politischer Debatten und staatlicher Handlungsweisen. Klar und prägnant geschrieben, veranschaulicht 50 Schlüsselideen Politik Vorstellungen und Konzepte, die uns alle betreffen. Ben Dupré wendet sich mit diesem Buch an Leser, die wissen wollen, wie das fortwährende Ringen um Macht die Welt und unseren Alltag prägt.

Die wichtigsten Schlüsselbegriffe werden in einem Glossar, das dem klaren, kompakten und auch kunstvollen Text von Susie Hodge beigegeben ist, sowie durch Mini-Essays und Kurzbiografien von epochemachenden Künstlern vertieft. Mit einer instruktiven Auswahl von Bildern, die beispielhaft Stilmerkmale und künstlerische Ideen zeigen, und mit einer übersichtlichen historischen Zeitleiste wird jede Kunstrichtung in ihren Kontext gestellt und insgesamt ein breiter Überblick über die weltweit bedeutendsten Entwicklungen von Kunst und Design vermittelt. Wem die künstlerische Ausdrucksweise jemals ein Rätsel war und wer sich einen groben Überblick verschaffen möchte, der wird bei diesem Buch voll auf seine Kosten kommen.

Welche Funktion hat ein Strebebogen? Was sind die Leitmotive der modernen Architektur? Wie unterscheidet sich Restaurierung von Konservierung? Wann ist ein Bauwerk bloß ein Bauwerk, wann ist es Kunst? Wenn Sie sich schon einmal solche Fragen gestellt haben oder sich allgemein für Baustile und Kunstepochen, Fassadengestaltung und Stadtplanung interessieren, dann bietet Ihnen 50 Schlüsselideen Architektur den perfekten Einstieg. Philip Wilkinson erklärt klar und präzise die Leitgedanken und Schlüsselkonzepte der Architektur und zeigt, auf welch unterschiedliche Weise die bebaute Umwelt in den verschiedenen Epochen der Geschichte gestaltet wurde. In 50 anregenden und spannenden Essays stellt er die einflussreichsten Architekturbewegungen wie auch die wichtigsten und berühmtesten Werke der größten Baumeister aller Zeiten vor. Das Buch spannt einen weiten Bogen von der Antike bis zur Gegenwart – von den frühesten Anfängen der Architektur im antiken Griechenland über die revolutionären Entwicklungen im späten 19. Jahrhundert und die skulpturalen Formen der Expressionisten bis hin zu den reduzierten Beton-Glas-Bauten des Internationalen Stils und, in jüngerer Zeit, der Eisen- und Glasarchitektur der Postmoderne sowie den aktuellen Trends der grünen Architektur heute – und verhilft so zu einem neuen und tieferen Verständnis für die Architektur und ihre tiefgreifenden Auswirkungen auf die Welt, in der wir heute leben.

4E Cognition and Eighteenth-Century Fiction: How the Novel Found its Feet (Cognition and Poetics)

When the novel broke into cultural prominence in the eighteenth century, it became notorious for the gripping, immersive style of its narratives. In this book, Karin Kukkonen explores this phenomenon through the embodied style in Eliza Haywood's flamboyant amatory fiction, Charlotte Lennox's work as a cultural broker between Britain and France, Sarah Fielding's experimental novels, and Frances Burney's practice of life-writing and fiction-writing. Four female authors who are often written out of the history of the genre are here foregrounded in a critical account that emphasizes the importance of engaging readers' minds and bodies, and which invites us to revisit our understanding of the rise of the modern novel. Kukkonen's innovative theoretical approach is based on the approach of 4E cognition, which views thinking as profoundly embodied and embedded in social and material contexts, extending into technologies and material devices (such as a pen), and enactive in the inherent links between perceiving the world and moving around in it. 4E Cognition and Eighteenth-Century Fiction investigates the eighteenth-century novel through each of these trajectories and shows how language explores its embodied dimension by increasing the descriptions of inner perception, or the bodily gestures around spoken dialogue. The embodied dimension is then related to the media ecologies of letter-writing, book learning, and theatricality. As the novel feeds off and into these social and material contexts, it comes into its own as a lifeworld technology that might not answer to standards of nineteenth-century realism but that feels 'real' because it is integrated into the lifeworld and embodied experiences. 4E cognition answers one of the central challenges to cognitive literary studies: how to integrate historical and cultural contexts into cognitive approaches.

3D Warhol: Andy Warhol and Sculpture (International Library of Modern and Contemporary Art)

Rain machines; alarmed kosher pickle jars filled with gemstones; replica cornflakes boxes; 'disco décor'; time capsules; art bombs; birthday presents; perfume bottles and floating silver pillows that are clouds; paintings that are also films; museum interventions; collected and curated projects; expanded performance environments; holograms. This is a book about the vast array of sculptural work made by Andy Warhol between 1954 and 1987, a period that begins long before the first Pop paintings and ends in the year of his death.In 3D Warhol, Thomas Morgan Evans demonstrates that Warhol's engagement with sculpture and its traditional notions produced 'trespasses', bisecting across the expectations, allegiances and values within art historical, and ultimately, social, sites of investiture - or territories. This groundbreaking, original book brings to the forefront a major, but overlooked aspect of Warhol's oeuvre and provides an essential new perspective on the artist's legacy.
