        Shaping a global women's agenda: women's NGOs and global governance, 1925–85

        by Karen Garner

        Drawing on a wide range of archival sources, Karen Garner documents international women's history through the lens of the long-established Western-led international organisations that defined and dominated women's involvement in global politics from the 1925 founding of the Joint Standing Committee of Women's International Organisations up through the UN Decade for Women (1976-85). Documenting specific global campaigns in episodes that span the twentieth century, Garner includes biographical information about lesser known international leaders as she discusses important historic debates regarding feminist goals and strategies among women from the East and West, North and South. This interdisciplinary study addresses questions of interest to historians, political scientists, international relations scholars, sociologists, and feminist scholars and activists whose work promotes women's and human rights. ;

        Agentieller Realismus

        by Karen Barad, Jürgen Schröder

        Mit ihrem Konzept des »Agentialen Realismus« findet Karen Barad seit einigen Jahren große Aufmerksamkeit, insbesondere unter Wissenschaftlerinnen und Wissenschaftlern, die sich mit Diskursanalyse, Techniksoziologie und Gender Studies beschäftigten. Barads Anliegen besteht darin, das Denken über Sprache, Diskurse und Dinge auf eine radikal neue Grundlage zu stellen. In ihrem vielbeachteten Essay, mit dem nun erstmals ein Text Barads auf Deutsch vorliegt, plädiert sie ausgehend von epistemologischen Überlegungen des dänischen Physikers Niels Bohr dafür, die Grenzen zwischen den Objekten, unseren Instrumenten, der Sprache und den menschlichen Beobachtern neu zu vermessen.

Its recognition enabled the development of new therapeutic and preventative strategies for serious health conditions such as gastric cancer, of which it is the major causative agent. Providing a broad overview of the current understanding of this pathogen and emphasising its world health impacts, this book explores a range of topics including virulence factors, vaccine development and obstacles, epidemiology, antibiotic resistance and the role of Nod receptors, with a foreword by Barry Marshall, the Nobel Laureate and co-discoverer of H. pylori.

        Journeyman

        An autobiography

        by Ewan Maccoll, Peggy Seeger, Peggy Seeger

        This new edition of Journeyman, Ewan MacColl's vivid and entertaining autobiography, has been re-edited from the original manuscript, and includes a new introduction by Peggy Seeger, for whom he wrote the unforgettable 'The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face'. MacColl, a singer, songwriter, actor, playwright and broadcaster, begins this fascinating account with his working class Salford childhood, traces the founding and life of Theatre Workshop, one of Britain's most innovative theatre companies, then moves on to his work with folksingers, the Radio Ballads and his ascent into old age. Ewan MacColl and Peggy Seeger were among the main leaders of the UK folksong revival. Journeyman documents their struggle to secure the integrity of that revival as the popular media appropriated and re-created traditional music for commercial gain. An entertaining and thought-provoking slice of British history, it will appeal to those interested in the histories of folk music, theatre, radio, left-wing politics and the Manchester area. ;

        Ehrengard

        by Tania Blixen, Brigitte Lorch, Brigitte Kronauer

        »Ehrengard«, die letzte Erzählung, die Tania Blixen geschrieben hat, hätte, wie Tania Blixen kurz vor ihrem Tod verraten hat, auch den Titel »Tagebuch des Verführers« tragen können: wie Søren Kierkegaards berühmtes Buch von 1843. Ein ironischer Unterton wäre dabei aber nicht zu überhören gewesen, denn die raffiniert inszenierte Verführung steht bei Tina Blixen unter einem ganz anderen Zeichen, einer anderen Bedeutung. Was erzählt wird, läßt sich nicht skizzieren, ohne die überraschenden Wendungen zu verraten, die den Leser und die Leserin bei der Lektüre rasch in eine unerwartete, ständig wachsende Anteilnahme versetzten. Nur so viel sei verraten: Im Kern der Handlung geht es um den Wunsch des Malers Johann Wolfgang Cazotte, des »unwiderstehlichsten Don Juan seiner Zeit«, das junge Mädchen Ehrengard zu verführen: sie zur Erkenntnis ihrer selbst zu bringen. Aber Tania Blixen hat mit ihren Gestalten etwas anderes vor, als Cazotte es sich ausgemalt hat, und doch – in tieferem Sinne – eben dasselbe: Formung eines Schicksals.
