T1 - Gender and the governance of terrorism and violent extremism N2 - This book brings together a variety of innovative perspectives on the inclusion of gender in the governance of (counter-)terrorism and violent extremism. Several global governance initiatives launched in recent years have explicitly sought to integrate concern for gender equality and gendered harms into efforts to counter terrorism and violent extremism (CT/CVE). As a result, commitments to gender-sensitivity and gender equality in international and regional CT/CVE initiatives, in national action plans and at the level of civil society programming, ´have become a common aspect of the multilevel governance of terrorism and violent extremism. In light of these developments, there is a need for more systematic analysis of how concerns about gender are being incorporated in the governance of (counter-)terrorism and violent extremism and how it has affected (gendered) practices and power relations in counterterrorism policy-making and implementation. Ranging from the processes of global and regional integration of gender into the governance of terrorism, via the impact of the shift on government responses to the return of foreign fighters, to state and civil society-led CVE programming and academic discussions, the essays engage with the origins and dynamics behind recent shifts which bring gender to the forefront of the governance of terrorism. This book will be of great value to researchers and scholars interested in gender, governance and terrorism. The chapters in this book were originally published in Critical Studies on Terrorism.

CY - Berlin ER - TY - BOOK ED - Schedler, Kuno ED - Proeller, Isabella T1 - Cultural Aspects of Public Management Reform T3 - Research in Public Policy Analysis and Management N2 - n an international context, public management arrangements differ significantly from country to country, but also regionally and locally. One reason for these differences may be differences in culture resulting in differing views of the state and its institutions. This may sound trivial, but it becomes highly important when public management reform models are proposed and transferred from one country to others such as was (and still is) the case with, for example, the new public management. Scholars in public management as well as internationally acting practitioners should be aware of the impact culture has on the possibilities and limits of concept transfers between different jurisdictions. Having said this, one precondition for a better consideration of cultural elements in public management reforms is a better understanding of culture itself. Among the public management community, cultural theory has gained considerable attention. There are, however, other concepts for the analysis of cultural facts that may be of interest to the subject, too. In the book, cultural (including organizational culture of public organizations) influences on public management and its reform are explored. Articles address definitions and conceptualizations of culture in the context of public management, cultural artifacts in public management and gives examples of cultural elements in public management from various countries. The volume helps to structure the discussion of cultural elements and points out approaches to study and incorporate cultural aspects in public management research and debate.

T1 - Human-animal interactions in the Eighteenth Century BT - from pests and predators to pets, poems and philosophy T3 - Internationale Forschungen zur Allgemeinen und Vergleichenden Literaturwissenschaft ; 207 N2 - How did humans respond to the eighteenth-century discovery of countless new species of animals? This book explores the gamut of intense human-animal interactions: from love to cultural identifications, moral reflections, philosophical debates, classification systems, mechanical copies, insults and literary creativity. Dogs, cats and horses, of course, play central roles. But this volume also features human reflections upon parrots, songbirds, monkeys, a rhino, an elephant, pigs, and geese – all the way through to the admired silkworms and the not-so-admired bookworms. An exceptionally wide array of source materials are used in this volume’s ten separate contributions, plus the editorial introduction, to demonstrate this diversity. As eighteenth-century humans came to realise that they too are animals, they had to recast their relationships with their fellow living-beings on Planet Earth. And these considerations remain very much live ones to this day.

Both disciplines intensively debate modernity, troubling its universalist claims and showing the contradictory nature of its promises. The call to provincialize Europe allows scholars from both disciplines to think, articulate and represent modern experiences beyond Europe and engage critically with traditions of modernity across disciplines, temporalities and geographies. Mapping Sephardi and other minor perspectives on modernity from across the globe in this volume, we are presenting fascinating cases and exploring new terrain where a fruitful encounter between Jewish and Postcolonial Studies can happen. N2 - Jüdische Studien und Postkoloniale Studien werden oft als gegensätzliche Ansätze verstanden. Dabei gibt es wesentliche Gemeinsamkeiten: Beide Disziplinen setzen sich intensiv mit der Moderne auseinander, hinterfragen ihren universalistischen Anspruch und zeigen die Widersprüchlichkeit ihres Versprechens auf. Die Forderung, Europa zu provinzialisieren, ermöglicht es Wissenschaftler:innen beider Disziplinen, Erfahrungen mit der Moderne, die sich auf Kontexte außerhalb Europas beziehen, zu denken, zu artikulieren und darzustellen sowie sich kritisch mit Traditionen der Moderne über Disziplinen, Zeitkonzepte und Geografien hinweg auseinanderzusetzen. Dieser Band stellt sephardische und andere marginalisierte Perspektiven aus der ganzen Welt auf die Moderne dar. Er präsentiert faszinierende Fallbeispiele und erkundet neues Terrain, auf dem eine fruchtbare Begegnung zwischen jüdischen und postkolonialen Studien stattfinden kann.
