July 2001Das Reale einer Illusion
Kant und Lacan
by Alenka Zupancic, Reiner Ansén, Slavoj Žižek
Die Idee der kantischen Ethik ist einfach und revolutionär zugleich: Sie schlägt ein moralisches Gesetz vor, das frei von jedem vorgefaßten Wert und frei von jeder menschlichen Neigung wie Liebe, Sympathie oder Angst ist. Viele Kant-Interpreten sind bei ihrem Versuch, seine Texte auf heutige Probleme zu beziehen, über die Paradoxien und unerfüllbaren Ansprüche seiner Moralphilosophie hinweggegangen. Alenka Zupani versucht genau das Gegenteil: Sie geht davon aus, daß das philosophische und zugleich subversive Potential von Kants Philosophie auch für gegenwärtige Fragen gerade darin liegt, daß sie keiner »Aktualität« entsprechen. In der Perspektive von Jacques Lacans Konzept des Realen wird Kants Moralphilosophie einer spannenden und innovativen Relektüre unterzogen.

August 2017Soziologie Globaler Ungleichheiten
by Anja Weiß
Die Soziologie glaubt immer noch an eine Welt starker nationaler Wohlfahrtsstaaten, die für ihre Bürger sorgen. Viele Menschen leben jedoch in Gebieten schwacher Staatlichkeit oder in Staaten, die sie bedrohen. Andere wandern zwischen Staaten oder arbeiten für transnationale Unternehmen. Anja Weiß plädiert in ihrem Buch für einen soziologischen Blick auf globale Ungleichheiten, der diese Kontexte jenseits des Staates endlich ernst nimmt. Dazu unterscheidet sie Räume, die territorial gebunden sind, von sozial differenzierten Feldern und politisch umkämpften Zugehörigkeiten. Lebenschancen, so eine ihrer Thesen, entstehen zwischen Personen und Kontexten – entsprechend heftig wird um den Zugang zu Letzteren gekämpft.

Insecticide & herbicide technologyAugust 1996Illustrations of Quarantine Pests for Europe
by Edited by I M Smith, Anne S Roy
This book is a companion volume to Quarantine Pests for Europe, published originally in 1992 by the European and Mediterranean Plant Protection Organization (EPPO) and CAB INTERNATIONAL (CABI) for the European Union. The previous book provides information on identity, hosts, geographical distribution, biology, detection and identification, means of movement and dispersal, pest significance, phytosanitary measures and a bibliography for all the quarantine pests listed by EPPO and the European Union, but does not contain any illustrations. A second edition of Quarantine Pests for Europe will be published at the end of 1996. The present book contains approximately 400 colour illustrations, most of them new in relation to the very first illustrations of the EPPO Data Sheets which appeared in Bulletin OEPP/EPPO Bulletin in the 1980s. The book covers most of the quarantine pests listed by EPPO and the European Union, including those which have been added to the quarantine lists since 1992. Thus it will be compatible with the second edition of the volume of text data sheets. The quarantine pests concerned are either not present in the Euro-Mediterranean region, or only present to a limited extent and submitted to official control measures. The sequence of presentation is as for the text volume, i.e. insects, nematodes, fungi, bacteria, viruses, parasitic plants. Within each chapter, the pest illustrations appear in alphabetical order. An index including scientific names and synonyms is included at the end of the book. Accompanying text is presented in both English and French. Although it has not been possible to illustrate every listed quarantine pest, this book provides a unique collection that will help phytosanitary inspectors, plant health officers, and others working in the field of plant quarantine, or plant protection in general, to recognize and identify quarantine pests. The book is published by EPPO in association with CABI, and is available for sale exclusively through CABI.

Children's & YAJanuary 2015Hatless
by Lateefa Buti / Illustrated by Doha Al Khteeb
Kuwaiti children’s book author Lateefa Buti’s well-crafted and beautifully illustrated children’s book, Hatless, encourages children (ages 6-9) to think independently and challenge rigid traditions and fixed rituals with innovation and creativity. The main character is a young girl named Hatless who lives in the City of Hats. Here, all of the people are born with hats that cover their heads and faces. The world inside of their hats is dark, silent, and odorless. Hatless feels trapped underneath her own hat. She wants to take off her hat, but she is afraid, until she realizes that whatever frightening things exist in the world around her are there whether or not she takes off her hat to see them. So Hatless removes her hat. As Hatless takes in the beauty of her surroundings, she cannot help but talk about what she sees, hears, and smells. The other inhabitants of the city ostracize her because she has become different from them. It is not long before they ask her to leave the City of Hats. Rather than giving up or getting angry, Hatless feels sad for her friends and neighbors who are afraid to experience the world outside of their hats. She comes up with an ingenious solution: if given another chance, she will wear a hat as long it is one she makes herself. The people of the City of Hats agree, so Hatless weaves a hat that covers her head and face but does not prevent her from seeing the outside world. She offers to loan the hat to the other inhabitants of the city. One by one, they try it on and are enchanted by the beautiful world around them. Since then, no child has been born wearing a hat. The people celebrate by tossing their old hats in the air. By bravely embracing these values, Hatless improves her own life and the lives of her fellow citizens. Buti’s language is eloquent and clear. She strikes a skilled narrative balance between revealing Hatless’s inner thoughts and letting the story unfold through her interactions with other characters. Careful descriptions are accompanied by beautiful illustrations that reward multiple readings of the book.
