Malevolent Managers and Folkloric Freelancers

When a malevolent multinational arrives on our shores, familiar creatures like pontianaks, manananggals, rākṣasīs and ba jiao guis are forced out of their jobs.

Benjamin Chee’s comics and Wayne Rée’s prose intertwine in this collection to bring you familiar Asian mythology in an even more familiar setting: the realm of dead-end work, glass ceilings and truly hellish bosses.

Race and settler colonialism in Southern Rhodesia, 1919–79
by Nicola Ginsburgh
This book offers the first comprehensive history of white workers from the end of the First World War to Zimbabwean independence in 1980. It reveals how white worker identity was constituted, examines the white labouring class as an ethnically and nationally heterogeneous formation comprised of both men and women, and emphasises the active participation of white workers in the ongoing and contested production of race. White wage labourers' experiences, both as exploited workers and as part of the privileged white minority, offer insight into how race and class co-produced one another and how boundaries fundamental to settler colonialism were regulated and policed. Based on original research conducted in Zimbabwe, South Africa and the UK, this book offers a unique theoretical synthesis of work on gender, whiteness studies, labour histories, settler colonialism, Marxism, emotions and the New African Economic History.

May 1999Systemtheorie und Sport
by Karl-Heinrich Bette
Der erste Teil des Bandes dient der Vergewisserung und Weiterentwicklung der theoretischen Grundlagen. Der zweite Teil fokussiert die Aufmerksamkeit auf die Bereiche Sport, Körper, Individualisierung, Urbanität und Abweichung und zeigt anhand dieser Beispiele, mit welch erhellenden Einsichten die systemtheoretische Theorietechnik bislang offene Fragen beantworten hilft. So thematisiert der Autor den Körper als Kultobjekt, analysiert die fitneß- und jugendlichkeitsorientierte Lebensführung breiter Massen, durchleuchtet das in der Soziologie bislang vernachlässigte Verhältnis von Sport und Individualisierung und ordnet die neuen urbanen Trendsportarten in größere Zusammenhänge ein. Am Beispiel des Dopings spricht er zudem einige prekäre Aspekte der gegenwärtigen Sportentwicklung an. Der dritte Teil des Bandes ist den Themen Beobachtung und Beratung gewidmet. Hier nimmt der Autor die wissenschaftlichen Beobachter des Sports ins Visier und diskutiert im Rahmen der Theorie selbstreferentieller Systeme die mögliche Relationierung von Sport und Wissenschaft.

October 2011Jüdischer Almanach. Sport
by Gisela Dachs
Juden und Sport? Das klingt erst einmal nach einem fabelhaften jüdischen Witz! Dabei teilten Juden seit jeher in den meisten Ländern die Vorlieben und Leidenschaften ihrer nichtjüdischen Umgebung. Mit mehr oder weniger Erfolg natürlich. Sport diente als ein Mittel der Inklusion und Exklusion, war stets Gradmesser der Emanzipation, in der Diaspora wie später in Israel. »Der Jüdische Almanach 2011« widmet sich diesem Thema mit einem breitgefächerten Spektrum: Es geht unter anderem um den Mythos der biblischen Leibeskraft, um Max Nordaus Muskeljudentum, um Antisemitismus im deutschen Fußball, um den legendären österreichischen Club Hakoah Wien – und die Leidenschaft für Schach. Daneben stehen aber auch Fragen wie die, warum sich viele Israelis für die Bundesliga begeistern, die Tel Aviver unbedingt Joga betreiben müssen oder warum der arabische Fußballclub Sachnin so erfolgreich ist. Mit Beiträgen von Michael Brenner, Moshe Zimmermann, Dietrich Schulze-Marmeling, Daniel Wildman, John Efron, Chaim Kaufman, Yair Galili und vielen anderen.
