Regional Integration and Social Cohesion

ISSN: 2030-8787

«Regional Integration and Social Cohesion» (RISC) is an interdisciplinary and multilingual (English, French, German, Spanish, Italian and Portuguese) series that examines the human and environmental impacts of regional integration, defined legally/politically (supranationalism), economically (globalization), socially (identity), and geographically (borders). The series aims to link global analysis of issues associated with social cohesion, such as market shifts, immigration, environmental risk and the deterioration of natural resources, human rights, violence and security, etc., with national and subnational studies that focus on political decision-making, the non-governmental sector and social participation in public debates, economic transformations, social marginalization, identity, etc. Thus, the series aims to combine the international, national and subnational arenas of politics in thematically-oriented research. While proposed case studies are welcome, the works presented in this series from all social science disciplines, are predominantly based on the comparative method. Studies that compare across geographic regions, defined continentally, are of particular interest. In addition to the scientific focus described above, this series aims to connect theoretical analysis of questions related to social cohesion with policy-based research. In doing so, it examines the role of political actors at different levels of regional integration processes and it studies citizen responses to changing opportunity structures in the economic, social and political spheres. Thus, the series attempts to shed light on contemporary shifts in the uses and types of power in policy-making processes. The issue of changes in how policies are being made is linked to: «who affects policy-making?» and «what impact do policies have in social and economic arenas?» « Intégration régionale et cohésion sociale » (RISC) est une collection interdisciplinaire et multilingue qui étudie les impacts humains et environnementaux qu’exerce l’intégration régionale, telle que définie légalement/politiquement (supranationalisme), économiquement (mondialisation), socialement (identité) et géographiquement (frontières). La collection cherche à mettre en relation d’une part l’analyse globale de problématiques associées à la cohésion sociale – les mouvements des marchés économiques, l’immigration, les enjeux écologiques, la préservation des ressources naturelles, les droits de l’homme, la violence et la sécurité, etc. – et d’autre part les études nationales et régionales/locales qui se centrent sur la prise de décision politique, le secteur non gouvernemental, la participation dans les débats publics, les transformations économiques, la marginalisation sociale, l’identité, etc. La collection cherche dès lors à combiner international, national et régional/local dans une perspective thématique. Si les études de cas y sont les bienvenues, on tentera cependant de privilégier les analyses comparatistes, dans le champ des sciences humaines, toutes disciplines confondues. Une attention toute particulière sera accordée aux études établissant des comparaisons entre continents. En outre, la collection souhaite relier l’analyse théorique de questions liées à la cohésion sociale à une recherche de type politique. Elle examine ainsi le rôle des acteurs politiques aux différents niveaux de l’intégration régionale et elle étudie la réaction des citoyens face aux mutations des structures économiques, sociales et politiques. RISC met dès lors en lumière les tendances contemporaines des usages et des types de pouvoir à l’œuvre dans les processus de prise de décision. La question de savoir comment les politiques sont élaborées est liée aux questions suivantes : « Qui peut influencer les politiques ? » et « quel est l’impact des politiques sur la scène politique et économique ? ».

Wissen – Kompetenz – Text

Die Reihe Wissen – Kompetenz – Text bietet Publikationen ein Forum, die sich aus fachwissenschaftlicher oder fachdidaktischer Perspektive mit Fragen der Sprach- und Textkompetenz sowie prinzipiell mit dem Zusammenhang von Wissen und Text beschäftigen. Von besonderem Interesse sind Publikationen, die anwendungsbezogene Perspektiven einnehmen und damit Facetten der Wissenskommunikation unter dem Blickwinkel der beruflichen Relevanz, der kommunikativen Kompetenz, der Textproduktion und -rezeption sowie den Bedingungen von Mehrsprachigkeit beleuchten. Die Reihe hat einen sprachwissenschaftlichen bzw. sprachdidaktischen Schwerpunkt, ist jedoch auch offen für literaturwissenschaftliche Beiträge oder Arbeiten aus anderen Disziplinen.

Studien zur Text- und Diskursforschung

ISSN: 2191-3714

Das Ziel dieser Reihe ist es, theoretische Probleme und empirische Beobachtungen der Text- und Diskurslinguistik vorzustellen und zu diskutieren. Es handelt sich um die Entstehung und Entwicklung der beiden Forschungsgebiete, ihre wichtigsten Schwerpunkte, aber auch um terminologische Kontroversen und strittige Fragen. Im Mittelpunkt des Interesses stehen darüber hinaus die Relation Text vs. Diskurs sowie Überlegungen zur weiteren Entwicklung der Forschung in beiden Bereichen. Sowohl Probleme des Textes und Diskurses als linguistische Phänomene, der Textsorten und verschiedener Diskurstypen, als auch Einzelfragen wie die Stellung der Intertextualität oder des Textes in der multimedialen Wirklichkeit bilden die Gegenstände für eine potentielle Erörterung. Geplant sind Arbeiten, die einzelsprachlich ausgerichtet sind. Dabei liegt der Schwerpunkt auf kontrastiven Studien (in erster Linie Deutsch-Polnisch, aber auch andere Sprachen), weil letztere sowohl für Germanisten als auch Slawisten von Belang sind. Nicht zuletzt sollen interdisziplinäre Ansätze, die in der aktuellen Wissenschaftsdebatte nicht nur zum Postulat, sondern auch oft zur Forschungsrealität werden, in der geplanten Reihe gezeigt werden, sodass Arbeiten mit einer großen Schnittmenge von Themen aus mehreren Fachgebieten zu begrüßen sind. Die Reihe wird sowohl Monographien (vor allem Dissertationen und Habilitationen) als auch Sammelbände aufnehmen, die sich in das skizzierte Themenspektrum einpassen.

Extreme teaching: rigorous texts for troubled times

ISSN: 1534-2808

Books in this series will provide practical ideas on classroom practice for teachers and teacher educators that are grounded in a profound understanding of the social, cultural, political, economic, historical, philosophical, and psychological contexts of education as well as in a keen sense of educational purpose. Within these contextual concerns contributors will address the ferment, uncertainty, and confusion that characterize the Troubles of contemporary education. The series will focus specifically on the act of teaching. While the topics addressed may vary, EXtreme Teaching is ultimately a book series that addresses new, rigorous, and contextually informed modes of classroom practice. Authors will bring together a commitment to educational and social justice with a profound understanding of a rearticulation of what constitutes compelling scholarship. The series is based on the insight that the future of progressive educational reform rests at the intersection of socio-educational justice and scholarly rigor. Authors will present their conceptions of this rigorous new pedagogical frontier in an accessible manner that avoids the esoteric language of an "in group." In this context, the series editors will make use of their pedagogical expertise to introduce pedagogical ideas to student, teacher, and professional audiences. In this process, they will explain what they consider the basic concepts of a field of study, developing their own interpretive insights about the domain and how it should develop in the future. Very few progressive texts exist to introduce individuals to rigorous and complex conceptions of pedagogical practice: thus, authors will be expected to use their contextualized interpretive imaginations to introduce readers to a creative and 'Progressive view of pedagogy in the field being analyzed.

Studien und Texte zur Religionsgeschichtlichen Schule

Die Reihe Studien und Texte zur Religionsgeschichtlichen Schule veröffentlicht Monographien, Quellentexte und Neudrucke zum Wirken der «Religionsgeschichtlichen Schule». Damit wird die Gruppe von evangelischen Theologen bezeichnet, die um die Wende vom 19. zum 20. Jahrhundert für einen radikalen Historismus eintraten. Sie prägten so maßgeblich den Fachdiskurs. Wegen ihres Anspruchs, ihre Erkenntnisse auch populär zu vermitteln, entfalteten sie darüber hinaus große Wirkung in der breiten Öffentlichkeit.
