        Ihre Hoheit

        by Herman Bang, Ulrich Sonnenberg

        Ihre Hoheit Maria Carolina in Bangs Erzählung ist eine unglückliche Prinzessin im goldenen Käfig. Von Kindheit an wird sie auf die ihr vorgezeichnete Rolle als adlige Repräsentatin gedrillt. Die aufkeimende Liebe zu einem jungen Schauspieler bleibt unerfüllt. Vorbild für Maria Carolina ist Prinzessin Marie Elisabeth aus der thüringischen Residenzstadt Meiningen, deren ritualisiertes öffentliches Leben Bang 1886 beobachtet hat. Zum 100. Todestag von Herman Bang am 29. Januar 2012 erscheint "Ihre Hoheit" in einer neuen, aktuellen Übersetzung.

        Governance as social and political communication

        by Henrik Bang, Martin Hargreaves

        Governance is among the most used of new ideas in the social sciences, most notably in the fields of political science, public administration, sociology, social and political theory. As ever, debates within disciplines rarely transcend disciplinary boundaries. This volume, newly available in paperback, brings together authors from these fields to elaborate on the development of governance analysis in new conceptions of political and democratic communication. It not only seeks to identify, describe and evaluate the contribution of each discipline to a theory of communicative governance, but also lays the foundation of a multidisciplinary framework for studying the mediation in communicative governance of societal concerns for effectiveness, order and participation. The book is theoretical and comparative, drawing on authors and research in Britain, Denmark, France, Germany, the Netherlands and the US. It adopts an anti-foundational approach to deconstruct the essentialist discourses endemic in each discipline and the disciplinary traditions of each country. Notions such as steering and control in public administration, identities and domination in sociology, and the community and self in social and political theory are analysed in depth. The book will demonstrate clearly how the distinctive traditions of each discipline lead them to construct overlapping, loosely coupled, and sometimes incommensurable ideas about the institutions, politics and policies of governance. ;

        Has devolution worked?

        The verdict from policy-makers and the public

        by John Curtice, Bed Seyd

        Devolution to Scotland and Wales represented the most fundamental reform of the British state for almost a century. Ten years on, how successful has the reform been? Drawing on the views of citizens, elected representatives and interest groups in Scotland and Wales, this book provides an answer. The book is based on a wide ranging programme of research, involving dedicated surveys and interviews across Scotland, Wales and England. The results provide important new evidence on how devolution has been seen to have performed. What are its perceived achievements? What are its shortcomings? Is the new devolution 'settlement' stable, or is there a demand for further reform? By bringing together perspectives from the public, members of the devolved legislatures and representatives of civil society, the book establishes a unique picture of where devolution in Britain stands today. The book is accessibly written, and contains a wide range of useful primary data. It is ideal for undergraduate and postgraduate students studying devolution in Britain, as well as for general readers with an interest in constitutional reform and territorial politics. ;

        Das weiße Haus/Das graue Haus

        Zwei Romane

        by Herman Bang, Walter Boehlich, Walter Boehlich

        Herman Bang, der große dänische Erzähler, wurde 1857 als Sohn eines Pfarrers geboren. Seine Kindheit im weißen Haus verklärt sich in seiner Erinnerung zum Zustand reinen, lichtdurchfluteten Glücks, eng verbunden mit der Beziehung zur Mutter. Das graue Haus hingegen steht für Alter, Verfall und Unglück und ist mit der Person des Großvaters verknüpft. Man kann die beiden autobiographischen Romane, es sind Bangs bekannteste Werke, jeden für sich lesen, aber sie gehören zusammen.
