Because the planetary signal is faint, discrepancies have been reported regarding individual targets. Aims We investigate the dependence of the estimated transmission spectrum on deviations of the orbital parameters of the star-planet system that are due to the limb-darkening effects of the host star. We describe how the uncertainty on the orbital parameters translates into an uncertainty on the planetary spectral slope. Methods We created synthetic transit light curves in seven different wavelength bands, from the near-ultraviolet to the near-infrared, and fit them with transit models parameterized by fixed deviating values of the impact parameter b. First, we performed a qualitative study to illustrate the effect by presenting the changes in the transmission spectrum slope with different deviations of b. Then, we quantified these variations by creating an error envelope (for centrally transiting, off-center, and grazing systems) based on a derived typical uncertainty on b from the literature. Finally, we compared the variations in the transmission spectra for different spectral types of host stars. Results Our simulations show a wavelength-dependent offset that is more pronounced at the blue wavelengths where the limb-darkening effect is stronger. This offset introduces a slope in the planetary transmission spectrum that becomes steeper with increasing b values. Variations of b by positive or negative values within its uncertainty interval introduce positive or negative slopes, thus the formation of an error envelope. The amplitude from blue optical to near-infrared wavelength for a typical uncertainty on b corresponds to one atmospheric pressure scale height and more. This impact parameter degeneracy is confirmed for different host types; K stars present prominently steeper slopes, while M stars indicate features at the blue wavelengths. Conclusions We demonstrate that transmission spectra can be hard to interpret, basically because of the limitations in defining a precise impact parameter value for a transiting exoplanet. This consequently limits a characterization of its atmosphere.

This work is dedicated to the study of the thermal stability of a water-methane mixture formed by cryogenic vapor phase deposition. The obtained thin films were studied using vibrational spectroscopy in the temperature range of 16-180 K. During thermal annealing of the samples, characteristic vibrational C-H modes of methane were monitored alongside the chamber pressure to register both structural changes and desorption of the film material. The obtained results reveal that upon the co-deposition of methane and water, methane molecules appear both in non-bound and trapped states. The observed broadening of the characteristic C-H stretching mode at 3010 cm(-1) upon an increase in temperature of the sample from 16 to 90 K, followed by narrowing of the peak as the temperature is reduced back to 16 K, indicates localization of methane molecules within the water matrix at lower temperatures.

An ensemble of 256 model runs is analyzed in which four relevant model parameters have been systematically varied using full-factorial parameter sampling. Parameters and plausible parameter ranges have been identified in a companion paper (Albrecht et al., 2020) and are associated with ice dynamics, climatic forcing, basal sliding and bed deformation and represent distinct classes of model uncertainties. The model is scored against both modern and geologic data, including reconstructed grounding-line locations, elevation-age data, ice thickness, surface velocities and uplift rates. An aggregated score is computed for each ensemble member that measures the overall model-data misfit, including measurement uncertainty in terms of a Gaussian error model (Briggs and Tarasov, 2013). The statistical method used to analyze the ensemble simulation results follows closely the simple averaging method described in Pollard et al. (2016). This analysis reveals clusters of best-fit parameter combinations, and hence a likely range of relevant model and boundary parameters, rather than individual best-fit parameters. The ensemble of reconstructed histories of Antarctic Ice Sheet volumes provides a score-weighted likely range of sea-level contributions since the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) of 9.4 +/- 4.1m (or 6.5 +/- 2.0 x 10(6) km(3)), which is at the upper range of most previous studies. The last deglaciation occurs in all ensemble simulations after around 12 000 years before present and hence after the meltwater pulse 1A (MWP1a). Our ensemble analysis also provides an estimate of parametric uncertainty bounds for the present-day state that can be used for PISM projections of future sea-level contributions from the Antarctic Ice Sheet.

However, boundary conditions are weakly constrained, in particular at the interface of the ice sheet and the bedrock. Also climatic forcing covering the last glacial cycles is uncertain, as it is based on sparse proxy data.
We use the Parallel Ice Sheet Model (PISM) to investigate the dynamic effects of different choices of input data, e.g., for modern basal heat flux or reconstructions of past changes of sea level and surface temperature. As computational resources are limited, glacial-cycle simulations are performed using a comparably coarse model grid of 16 km and various parameterizations, e.g., for basal sliding, iceberg calving, or for past variations in precipitation and ocean temperatures. In this study we evaluate the model's transient sensitivity to corresponding parameter choices and to different boundary conditions over the last two glacial cycles and provide estimates of involved uncertainties. We also discuss isolated and combined effects of climate and sea-level forcing. Hence, this study serves as a "cookbook" for the growing community of PISM users and paleo-ice sheet modelers in general.
For each of the different model uncertainties with regard to climatic forcing, ice and Earth dynamics, and basal processes, we select one representative model parameter that captures relevant uncertainties and motivates corresponding parameter ranges that bound the observed ice volume at present. The four selected parameters are systematically varied in a parameter ensemble analysis, which is described in a companion paper.

Although starch degradation starts with the phosphorylation process, the mechanisms by which this process is controlling and adjusting starch degradation are not yet fully understood. Phosphorylation is a major process performed by the two dikinases enzymes α-glucan, water dikinase (GWD) and phosphoglucan water dikinase (PWD). GWD and PWD enzymes phosphorylate the starch granule surface; thereby stimulate starch degradation by hydrolytic enzymes. Despite these important roles for GWD and PWD, so far the biochemical processes by which these enzymes are able to regulate and adjust the rate of phosphate incorporation into starch during the degradation process haven‘t been understood. Recently, some proteins were found associated with the starch granule. Two of these proteins are named Early Starvation Protein 1 (ESV1) and its homologue Like-Early Starvation Protein 1 (LESV). It was supposed that both are involved in the control of starch degradation, but their function has not been clearly known until now. To understand how ESV1 and LESV-glucan interactions are regulated and affect the starch breakdown, it was analyzed the influence of ESV1 and LESV proteins on the phosphorylating enzyme GWD and PWD and hydrolysing enzymes ISA, BAM, and AMY. However, the analysis determined the location of LESV and ESV1 in the chloroplast stroma of Arabidopsis. Mass spectrometry data predicted ESV1and LESV proteins as a product of the At1g42430 and At3g55760 genes with a predicted mass of ~50 kDa and ~66 kDa, respectively. The ChloroP program predicted that ESV1 lacks the chloroplast transit peptide, but it predicted the first 56 amino acids N-terminal region as a chloroplast transit peptide for LESV. Usually, the transit peptide is processed during transport of the proteins into plastids. Given that this processing is critical, two forms of each ESV1 and LESV were generated and purified, a full-length form and a truncated form that lacks the transit peptide, namely, (ESV1and tESV1) and (LESV and tLESV), respectively. Both protein forms were included in the analysis assays, but only slight differences in glucan binding and protein action between ESV1 and tESV1 were observed, while no differences in the glucan binding and effect on the GWD and PWD action were observed between LESV and tLESV. The results revealed that the presence of the N-terminal is not massively altering the action of ESV1 or LESV. Therefore, it was only used the ESV1 and tLESV forms data to explain the function of both proteins. However, the analysis of the results revealed that LESV and ESV1 proteins bind strongly at the starch granule surface. Furthermore, not all of both proteins were released after their incubation with starches after washing the granules with 2% [w/v] SDS indicates to their binding to the deeper layers of the granule surface. Supporting of this finding comes after the binding of both proteins to starches after removing the free glucans chains from the surface by the action of ISA and BAM. Although both proteins are capable of binding to the starch structure, only LESV showed binding to amylose, while in ESV1, binding was not observed. The alteration of glucan structures at the starch granule surface is essential for the incorporation of phosphate into starch granule while the phosphorylation of starch by GWD and PWD increased after removing the free glucan chains by ISA. Furthermore, PWD showed the possibility of starch phosphorylation without prephosphorylation by GWD. Biochemical studies on protein-glucan interactions between LESV or ESV1 with different types of starch showed a potentially important mechanism of regulating and adjusting the phosphorylation process while the binding of LESV and ESV1 leads to altering the glucan structures of starches, hence, render the effect of the action of dikinases enzymes (GWD and PWD) more able to control the rate of starch degradation. Despite the presence of ESV1 which revealed an antagonistic effect on the PWD action as the PWD action was decreased without prephosphorylation by GWD and increased after prephosphorylation by GWD (Chapter 4), PWD showed a significant reduction in its action with or without prephosphorylation by GWD in the presence of ESV1 whether separately or together with LESV (Chapter 5). However, the presence of LESV and ESV1 together revealed the same effect compared to the effect of each one alone on the phosphorylation process, therefore it is difficult to distinguish the specific function between them. However, non-interactions were detected between LESV and ESV1 or between each of them with GWD and PWD or between GWD and PWD indicating the independent work for these proteins. It was also observed that the alteration of the starch structure by LESV and ESV1 plays a role in adjusting starch degradation rates not only by affecting the dikinases but also by affecting some of the hydrolysing enzymes since it was found that the presence of LESV and ESV1leads to the reduction of the action of BAM, but does not abolish it. N2 - Ziel dieser Arbeit war es, den Mechanismus der Protein-Glucan-Wechselwirkungen bei der Regulation und Kontrolle des Stärkeabbaus zu verstehen. Der Stärkeabbau beginnt mit dem Phosphorylierungsprozess, der von den beiden Dikinasen, der a-Glucan, Wasserdikinase (GWD) und der Phosphoglucanwasserdikinase (PWD) durchgeführt wird. Kürzlich wurden einige Proteine gefunden, die mit dem Stärkegranulum assoziiert sind. Zwei dieser Proteine heißen Early Starvation 1 (ESV1) und das Homolog Like-Early Starvation (LESV), Es wurde vorgeschlagen, dass beide an der Kontrolle des Stärkeabbaus beteiligt sind, aber ihre Funktion ist bisher nicht bekannt. Um zu verstehen, wie ESV1- und LESV-Glucan-Wechselwirkungen reguliert werden und den Stärkeabbau beeinflussen, wurde der Einfluss der beiden Proteine auf die Phosphorylierungsenzyme GWD und PWD, sowie die Hydrolasen isoamylase, betaamylase, und alpha-amylase ntersucht. Dabei ergab die Analyse, dass LESV und ESV1 nicht nur stark an der Oberfläche, sondern auch in den tieferen Schichten der Stärkegranula binden. Obwohl beide Proteine in der Lage sind, an die Stärkestruktur zu binden, zeigte nur LESV eine Bindung an Amylose, während für ESV1 keine Bindung beobachtet werden konnte. Die Veränderung der Glucanstrukturen an der Oberfläche der Stärkekörner ist für den Einbau von Phosphat wesentlich, so nahm beispielsweise die Phosphorylierung der Stärke durch GWD und PWD nach Entfernung der freien Glucanketten mittels ISA zu. Darüber hinaus konnte ebenso gezeigt werden, dass PWD auch ohne eine Präphosphorylierung durch GWD die Glucosyleinheiten innerhalb der Stärke phosphorylieren kann. Die Bindung von LESV und ESV1 führt zu einer Veränderung der Glucanstrukturen von Stärken, wodurch die Aktivität der Dikinasen (GWD und PWD) und somit die Geschwindigkeit des Stärkeabbaus wahrscheinlich besser gesteuert werden kann. Es wurden keine Wechselwirkungen zwischen LESV und ESV1 oder zwischen jedem von ihnen mit GWD und PWD oder zwischen GWD und PWD festgestellt, was auf die unabhängige Arbeit von diesen Proteinen hinweist. Es wurde auch beobachtet, dass die Modifikation der Stärkestruktur durch LESV und ESV1 eine Rolle bei der Anpassung der Stärkeabbauraten spielt, nicht nur durch Beeinflussung der Dikinasen, sondern auch durch die Beeinflussung einiger hydrolysierender Enzyme wie BAM. Den so zeigte die Amylase eine eindeutige Reduktion ihrer katalytischen Wirkung in Präsenz von LESV und ESV1. Daraus resumierend kann davon ausgegangen werden, dass die beiden Proteine ESV1 und LESV für die Feinregulation des Stärkeabbaus von höchster Relevanz sind.

Human rights defenders have historically been defined on the basis of their actions as defenders. However, as Marxist-feminist scholar Silvia Federici contends, women are inherently politicised and, moreover, face obstacles to political action which are invisible to and untouchable by the law. Labour rights set an example of handling such a disadvantaged political position by placing vital importance on workers’ right to association and collective action. The paper closes with the suggestion that transposing this construction of rights to women would better protect women as human rights defenders while emphasising their capacity for self-determination in their political actions. N2 - Dieses Papier bewertet die Konstruktion der Rechte von Menschenrechtsverteidigern innerhalb des Völkerrechts und ihre Mängel beim Schutz von Frauen. Menschenrechtsverteidiger wurden in der Vergangenheit auf der Grundlage ihrer Tätigkeit als Verteidiger definiert. Wie die marxistisch-feministische Wissenschaftlerin Silvia Federici behauptet, sind Frauen jedoch von Natur aus politisiert und sehen sich darüber hinaus Hindernissen für politisches Handeln gegenüber, die für das Gesetz unsichtbar und unantastbar sind. Die Arbeitsrechte sind ein Beispiel für den Umgang mit einer derart benachteiligten politischen Position, indem sie dem Recht der Arbeitnehmer auf Vereinigungsfreiheit und kollektive Aktionen entscheidende Bedeutung beimessen. Das Papier schließt mit dem Vorschlag, dass die Übertragung dieser Rechtskonstruktion auf Frauen Frauen als Menschenrechtsverteidigerinnen besser schützen und gleichzeitig ihre Fähigkeit zur Selbstbestimmung in ihrem politischen Handeln betonen würde.

They should be set up optimally to provide as much information as possible that is as accurate as possible and, at the same time, be cost-effective. Although the design of hydrometric networks is a well-identified problem in hydrometeorology and has received considerable attention, there is still scope for further advancement. In this study, we use complex network analysis, defined as a collection of nodes interconnected by links, to propose a new measure that identifies critical nodes of station networks. The approach can support the design and redesign of hydrometric station networks. The science of complex networks is a relatively young field and has gained significant momentum over the last few years in different areas such as brain networks, social networks, technological networks, or climate networks. The identification of influential nodes in complex networks is an important field of research. We propose a new node-ranking measure – the weighted degree–betweenness (WDB) measure – to evaluate the importance of nodes in a network. It is compared to previously proposed measures used on synthetic sample networks and then applied to a real-world rain gauge network comprising 1229 stations across Germany to demonstrate its applicability. The proposed measure is evaluated using the decline rate of the network efficiency and the kriging error. The results suggest that WDB effectively quantifies the importance of rain gauges, although the benefits of the method need to be investigated in more detail.

They should be set up optimally to provide as much information as possible that is as accurate as possible and, at the same time, be cost-effective. Although the design of hydrometric networks is a well-identified problem in hydrometeorology and has received considerable attention, there is still scope for further advancement. In this study, we use complex network analysis, defined as a collection of nodes interconnected by links, to propose a new measure that identifies critical nodes of station networks. The approach can support the design and redesign of hydrometric station networks.

To understand the genetic contribution in the development of diabetes, mice varying in their disease susceptibility were crossed with the obese and diabetes-prone New Zealand obese (NZO) mouse. Subsequent whole-genome sequence scans revealed one major quantitative trait loci (QTL),Nidd/DBAon chromosome 4, linked to elevated blood glucose and reduced plasma insulin and low levels of pancreatic insulin. Phenotypical characterization of congenic mice carrying 13.6 Mbp of the critical fragment of DBA mice displayed severe hyperglycemia and impaired glucose clearance at week 10, decreased glucose response in week 13, and loss of beta-cells and pancreatic insulin in week 16. To identify the responsible gene variant(s), further congenic mice were generated and phenotyped, which resulted in a fragment of 3.3 Mbp that was sufficient to induce hyperglycemia. By combining transcriptome analysis and haplotype mapping, the number of putative responsible variant(s) was narrowed from initial 284 to 18 genes, including gene models and non-coding RNAs. Consideration of haplotype blocks reduced the number of candidate genes to four (Kti12,Osbpl9,Ttc39a, andCalr4) as potential T2D candidates as they display a differential expression in pancreatic islets and/or sequence variation. In conclusion, the integration of comparative analysis of multiple inbred populations such as haplotype mapping, transcriptomics, and sequence data substantially improved the mapping resolution of the diabetes QTLNidd/DBA. Future studies are necessary to understand the exact role of the different candidates in beta-cell function and their contribution in maintaining glycemic control.

T1 - Using AI for mental health analysis and prediction in school surveys T2 - European journal of public health N2 - Background: Childhood and adolescence are critical stages of life for mental health and well-being. Schools are a key setting for mental health promotion and illness prevention. One in five children and adolescents have a mental disorder, about half of mental disorders beginning before the age of 14. Beneficial and explainable artificial intelligence can replace current paper- based and online approaches to school mental health surveys. This can enhance data acquisition, interoperability, data driven analysis, trust and compliance. This paper presents a model for using chatbots for non-obtrusive data collection and supervised machine learning models for data analysis; and discusses ethical considerations pertaining to the use of these models. Methods: For data acquisition, the proposed model uses chatbots which interact with students. The conversation log acts as the source of raw data for the machine learning. Pre-processing of the data is automated by filtering for keywords and phrases. Existing survey results, obtained through current paper-based data collection methods, are evaluated by domain experts (health professionals). These can be used to create a test dataset to validate the machine learning models. Supervised learning can then be deployed to classify specific behaviour and mental health patterns. Results: We present a model that can be used to improve upon current paper-based data collection and manual data analysis methods. An open-source GitHub repository contains necessary tools and components of this model. Privacy is respected through rigorous observance of confidentiality and data protection requirements. Critical reflection on these ethics and law aspects is included in the project. Conclusions: This model strengthens mental health surveillance in schools. The same tools and components could be applied to other public health data. Future extensions of this model could also incorporate unsupervised learning to find clusters and patterns of unknown effects.

With increased digitization, the healthcare sector is shifting towards implementing digital technologies for data management and in administration. New technologies offer better treatment opportunities and streamline clinical workflow, but the complexity can cause ineffectiveness, frustration, and errors. To address this, we believe digital solutions alone are not sufficient. Therefore, we take a human-centred design approach for AI development, and apply systems engineering methods to identify system leverage points. We demonstrate how automation enables monitoring clinical parameters, using existing non-intrusive sensor technology, resulting in more resources toward patient care. Furthermore, we provide a framework on digitization of clinical data for integration with data management.

They relate nation and utopia not by describing perfect societies, but by writing about attempts to immediately live radically different lives. Signposting the respective communal history, the readings provide a literary perspective to communal studies, and add to a deeply necessary historicization for strictly literary approaches to US utopianism, and for studies that focus on Pilgrims/Puritans/Founding Fathers as utopian practitioners. This book therefore highlights how the authors evaluated the USA’s utopian potential and traces the nineteenth-century development of the utopian imagination from various perspectives.

Cue-based accounts, however, suggest that infants use agency cues to identify and predict action goals when the action or the agent is not familiar. From these accounts, we hypothesized that younger infants would need additional agency cues such as a salient action effect to predict the goal of a human grasping action, whereas older infants should be able to predict the goal regardless of agency cues. In three experiments, we presented 6-, 7-, and 11-month-olds with videos of a manual grasping action presented either with or without an additional salient action effect (Exp. 1 and 2), or we presented 7-month-olds with videos of a mechanical claw performing a grasping action presented with a salient action effect (Exp. 3). The 6-month-olds showed tracking gaze behavior, and the 11-month-olds showed predictive gaze behavior, regardless of the action effect. However, the 7-month-olds showed predictive gaze behavior in the action-effect condition, but tracking gaze behavior in the no-action-effect condition and in the action-effect condition with a mechanical claw. The results therefore support the idea that salient action effects are especially important for infants' goal predictions from 7 months on, and that this facilitating influence of action effects is selective for the observation of human hands.

In den Modernisierungsprozessen stehen derzeit zwei Segmente besonders im Fokus: Digitalisierung und Partizipation. Digitalisierung geht heute weit über die ursprünglich mit diesem Stichwort angesprochene Umwandlung analoger Daten in elektronische Datenformate hinaus. Die Programmatik der Digitalisierung zielt auf den möglichst umfassenden Einsatz elektronischer Informations- und Kommunikationstechniken zur Unterstützung, Beschleunigung, Rationalisierung und in Teilen auch Ersetzung von herkömmlichen Verwaltungsabläufen mit der Perspektive auf eine Transformation und Durchdringung sowohl des gesamten Verwaltungshandelns als auch der gesamten Verwaltungsorganisation. Demgegenüber meint Partizipation nach gängigem Verständnis die Beteiligung von Bürgern und anderen gesellschaftlichen Akteuren an politischen Willensbildungs- und Entscheidungsprozessen. In spezifisch administrativem Zusammenhang geht es vor allem um die Einbindung von Bürgern in Entscheidungsprozesse der Verwaltung und um die Aktivierung der Zivilgesellschaft, die Erschließung bürgerschaftlichen Engagements sowie gesellschaftlicher Ressourcen für die Erfüllung von Verwaltungsaufgaben – und dies alles mit dem Ziel einer Verbesserung der Legitimität und Qualität öffentlicher Verwaltung. Die beiden Modernisierungsansätze stehen nicht unverbunden nebeneinander. Vielmehr gehen sie nicht selten ineinander über. Beispiele dafür sind die Bereitstellung von Optionen zu elektronischer Stellung und Bearbeitung von Anträgen sowie von elektronischen Plattformen für die Bürgerpartizipation. An diesen Themenfeldern der Verwaltungsmodernisierung setzt der Tagungsband an. Er dokumentiert den Gedankenaustausch über Digitalisierungs- und Partizipationsprozesse zwischen polnischen und deutschen Verwaltungsrechtswissenschaftlern auf einer Tagung, die im Dezember 2019 an der Universität Potsdam stattgefunden hat.

In sharing arrangements, facial appearance has been shown to affect the desire to collaborate, interest to explore a listing, and even willingness to pay for a stay. Because of the ubiquity of online images and their influence on social attitudes, it seems crucial to be able to control these aspects. The present study examines the effect of different photographic self-disclosures on the provider’s perceptions and willingness to accept a potential co-sharer. The findings from our experiment in the accommodation-sharing context suggest social attraction mediates the effect of photographic self-disclosures on willingness to host. Implications of the results for IS research and practitioners are discussed.

T1 - An extreme particle accelerator in the Galactic plane BT - HESS J1826-130 JF - Astronomy and astrophysics : an international weekly journal N2 - The unidentified very-high-energy (VHE; E > 0.1 TeV) gamma -ray source, HESS J1826-130, was discovered with the High Energy Stereoscopic System (HESS) in the Galactic plane. The analysis of 215 h of HESS data has revealed a steady gamma -ray flux from HESS J1826-130, which appears extended with a half-width of 0.21 degrees +/- 0.02

stat degrees +/- 0.05
(sys)degrees sys degrees . The source spectrum is best fit with either a power-law function with a spectral index Gamma = 1.78 +/- 0.10(stat) +/- 0.20(sys) and an exponential cut-off at 15.2
(+5.5)(-3.2) -3.2+5.5 TeV, or a broken power-law with Gamma (1) = 1.96 +/- 0.06(stat) +/- 0.20(sys), Gamma (2) = 3.59 +/- 0.69(stat) +/- 0.20(sys) for energies below and above E-br = 11.2 +/- 2.7 TeV, respectively. The VHE flux from HESS J1826-130 is contaminated by the extended emission of the bright, nearby pulsar wind nebula, HESS J1825-137, particularly at the low end of the energy spectrum. Leptonic scenarios for the origin of HESS J1826-130 VHE emission related to PSR J1826-1256 are confronted by our spectral and morphological analysis. In a hadronic framework, taking into account the properties of dense gas regions surrounding HESS J1826-130, the source spectrum would imply an astrophysical object capable of accelerating the parent particle population up to greater than or similar to 200 TeV. Our results are also discussed in a multiwavelength context, accounting for both the presence of nearby supernova remnants, molecular clouds, and counterparts detected in radio, X-rays, and TeV energies.

BT - demographic concepts, population policy, and genocide in the Late Ottoman, Russian, and Habsburg spheres T3 - Gewaltpolitik und Menschenrechte ; 3 N2 - During the phases of mobile warfare, the ethnically and religiously very heterogeneous population in the border regions of the multi-ethnic empires suffered in particular. Even if the real military situation in the course of the war hardly gave cause for concern, the image of disloyal ethnic and national minorities was widespread. This was particularly the case when ethnic groups lived on both sides of the border and social and political tensions had already established themselves along ethnic or religious lines of conflict before the war. Displacements, deportations and mass violence were the result. The genocide of the Armenian population is the most extreme example of this development. This anthology examines the border regions of the Ottoman, Russian and Habsburg empires during the First World War with regard to radical population policy and genocidal violence from a comparative perspective in order to draw a more precise picture of escalating and deescalating factors.

September 1320. Zunächst im Besitz verschiedener lokaler Adelsgeschlechter, wurde der Ort ab 1683 kurfürstlicher bzw. später königlicher Besitz. 1718 erfolgte die Umbenennung von Wendisch Wusterhausen in Königs Wusterhausen. Seit 1898 bildete die Gemeinde zusammen mit Neue Mühle einen Gemeindebezirk, der sich bis 1932 weiter vergrößerte, bevor er drei Jahre später zur Stadt erhoben wurde. Von 1952 bis 1993 war Königs Wusterhausen Kreisstadt im gleichnamigen Kreis des Bezirks Potsdam. 1974 wurde Deutsch Wusterhausen eingemeindet, 2003 folgten Kablow, Niederlehme, Senzig, Wernsdorf, Zeesen und Zernsdorf sowie 2004 Diepensee. Dieser reich bebilderte Band bietet einen Überblick über die wechselvolle Geschichte der Stadt und ihrer Ortsteile, ergänzt um essayistische Beiträge zum Schloss, zur Großfunkstation, zu kulturtouristischen Sehenswürdigkeiten und zum Dahmelandmuseum.

The earliest formulation of cosmopolitanism in the West could be dated to as early as the fourth century BCE in ancient Greece by Diogenes, who famously said that he was a “citizen of the world – kosmopolitês,” an idea later picked up by Immanuel Kant, the German philosopher who proposed a philosophy of a world of “perpetual peace.” When cosmopolitanism first emerged as a political idea for modernity in the European Enlightenment, the project embraced the liberal promises of a globalizing economy, yet remained oblivious to, and even complicit with, capitalism, slavery and colonialism. It centered on the male, bourgeois, and white liberal subject, irrespective of the ongoing disenfranchisement, dehumanization, and extermination of its Others. At the dawn of the 21st century, and in the wake of rapid globalization however, academics, politicians and other pundits enthusiastically declared cosmopolitanism to be no longer just a philosophical ideal, but a real, existing fact. Across the globe, they argued, people were increasingly thinking and feeling beyond the nation, considering themselves citizens of the world. Meanwhile, the global ecological crisis worsens, fascism with different outfits returns in many places of the world, the repression of women, sexual, racial, class and other minorities on a global scale persists; the so called “refugee crisis” inundates the mediascape and political spectacle. Not much of those cosmopolitan promises have left it seems. Perhaps precisely because of this, however, it seems to be an absolute necessity for scholars, activists, and artists today to face the complexities and promises cosmopolitanism has raised although not adequately answered. What has happened to the cosmopolitan promise, and who betrayed it? “Minor cosmopolitanisms” wishes to challenge the underlying premises of ‘major’ cosmopolitanism without letting go of the unfulfilled emancipatory potential of the concept at large. It wants to rethink cosmopolitanisms in the plural, and trace multiple origins and trajectories of cosmopolitan thought from across the globe. Regarding cosmopolitanisms as emerging through diverse locally, historically and politically specific practices, minor cosmopolitanisms are predicated on difference without abandoning the quest for a shared vision of conviviality and justice. It seeks to answer: how to live at once with our difference and shared struggle? How to think our complicity with even those we most resist? Who sustains the world’s flourishing despite all this?

Case studies ranging from the German reception of James Cook's voyages through to the legacies of 19th- and 20th- century settler colonialism foreground the highly ambiguous roles played by explorers, missionaries, intellectuals and other individuals, as well as by objects and things that travelled between worlds - ancestral human remains, rare animal skins, songs and even military tanks. The chapters foreground the complex relationship between science, religion, art and exploitation, displacement and annihilation. Contributors trace how these entanglements have been commemorated or forgotten over time - by Germans, settler-Australians and Indigenous people. Bringing to light a critical understanding of the German involvement in the Australian colonial project, Remembering German- Australian Colonial Entanglements will be of great interest to scholars of colonialism, postcolonialism, German Studies and Indigenous Studies. But for the editors' substantial new introductory chapter, these contributions originally appeared in a special issue of Postcolonial Studies.

True, she assumed some aspects of pharaonic imagery in order to rule Egypt, but her Orientalism mostly derives from ancient (Roman) and modern stereotypes: both the Orient and the idea of a woman in power are signs, in the Western tradition, of ‘otherness’ – and in this sense they can easily overlap and interchange. This volume investigates how ancient women, and particularly powerful women, such as queens and empresses, have been re-imagined in Western (and not only Western) arts; highlights how this re-imagination and re-visualization is, more often than not, the product of Orientalist stereotypes – even when dealing with women who had nothing to do with Eastern regions; and compares these images with examples of Eastern gaze on the same women. Through the chapters in this volume, readers will discover the similarities and differences in the ways in which women in power were and still are described and decried by their opponents.
