Seit April letzten Jahres fördert die Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft ein Projekt diesesSchwerpunkts, das sich mit den sozialen Folgen von AIDS im Südlichen Afrika befasst. In verschiedenen Regionen der Länder Botswana und Namibia werden in demProjekt mit Methoden der qualitativen Sozialforschung die gesellschaftlichen Auswirkungen der 'modernen Krankheit' nachgezeichnet.Item "Alle Apparate abschalten." Conceiving Love and Technology with Heidegger And Kittler(2020) Winkler, Robert A.This article explores Friedrich Kittler´s conception of the intersection of love with modern technology and illustrates the theoretical insights gained by considering Spike Jonze´s film Her (2013). The German media theorist Friedrich Kittler (1943 2011) was among the first to study the discursive and material implications of modern technologies. Recent scholarship has stressed Kittler s indebtedness to Martin Heidegger´s philosophy of technology. Accordingly, Kittler thinks through the latter´s contention that it is in and through modern technology that human beings are possibly confronted with truth events, in which the particular time-specific self-unconcealment of being takes place and this unconcealment would not least materialize in the realm of love (Gumbrecht 2013; Kittler 2014; Weber 2018).In this article, I focus on the theoretical examination of Heidegger´s philosophy of technology in general and the concomitant notion of enframing in particular to shed further light on Kittler´s reflection on love that pervades the latter´s entire oeuvre. The article then interrogates whether, and under what circumstances, modern technology might foster said truth events by focusing on: first, love among human beings, second, love among technological beings, and, third, love between human beings and technological beings. Thereby, Spike Jonze´s critically acclaimed science-fiction drama Her, depicting a romantic relationship between a human being and a computer operating system, serves as a reference point in illustrating Kittler´s multifaceted conception of the nexus of love and modern technology.Item Alterity - a category of practice and analysis : preliminary remarks(2017) Bachmann-Medick, DorisThis article provides introductory remarks on the concept of alterity, which could stimulate the discussion on newsreels/media and their representation of the Other. Starting from the observation that alterity has often been overshadowed by an overestimation of identity, the article differentiates between various fields of alterity : amongst them, real alterity in societal practice, representational alterity in media contexts, and attitudes of othering in movements between alterity or alienness. It critically brings to the fore some underlying frameworks and unspoken assumptions. Finally, the article asks whether the positioning of alterity in 20th-century newsreels has provided first approaches for overcoming its binary corset in the direction of a global circulation of images. Can this perhaps be seen as a step towards turning our attention to a revaluation and new recognition of the Other?Item Another twelve years: Hungarian newsreels and the invasion of Czechoslovakia in 1968(2017) Barkóczi, JankaDuring almost twelve years after the Soviet regime crushed the Hungarian Revolution, the Warsaw Pact allies invaded Czechoslovakia to put an end to the 1968 Prague Spring and the country s recent reformist trends. The Soviet troops were accompanied by military forces from Hungary, Poland, East Germany, and Bulgaria. Among many other serious consequences, this helped to preserve the long-term power of communist governments in the region.This paper examines the audio-visual and conceptual elements of the official newsreel series published by the Socialist state of the Hungarian People s Republic between May and October 1968, focusing on the representation of the intervention and the depiction of Czechoslovakia as an Eastern Bloc state. The essay argues that the official media of the regime led by János Kádár dealt with this topic in a highly sensitive way because of the possible echoes of the 1956 uprising. In the editorial guidelines of the newsreels, a special ritual manner was introduced to inform and orient the audiences according to the interests of the central propaganda.The techniques and forms of media argumentation are examined based on the collection of Hungarian newsreels of the Hungarian National Film Archive, using both qualitative and quantitative methods.Item Ausbildung und Berufsfeld(1996) Boland, HermannItem Bericht zur Konferenz "Sexualisierte Gewalt in Bildungskontexten" vom 28. bis 29. Januar 2016(2017) Medebach, Dirk H.; Langenohl, Andreas; Brüsemeister, Thomas; Wiezorek, ChristineItem Blogging to Let Go: Life Writing, Maternal Cancer and Death(2021) Joutseno, AstridIllness memoirs gained popularity in the last decades of the 20th century. From the early 21st century, illness narratives proliferate online. This article examines illness life writing and near-death narratives by mothers living with stage IV cancer. I read two blogs, Suspicious Country by Nina Riggs and Julie Yip-Williams: My Cancer Fighting Journey by Julie Yip-Williams, and their published memoirs. I draw from life writing studies, motherhood studies, queer death studies, and narrative medicine, analyzing the overlap of mothering and illness in the contexts of life writing and med-icine. Working with Eve Sedgwick s reparative practice, I suggest that while illness, dying, and mothering appear incompatible at first, narrating from this position holds the possibility of sustenance and the potential for redefining how stories of ill and dying mothers are told. The blogs and memoirs are counter-narratives to the healing imperatives and closure demanded by the normative cancer narrative. They flesh out an approach to living with illness and dying, while writing about it. The article illus-trates how illness blogging constructs an entangled story of grief, loss, and joy which becomes an instrument in living with the acute awareness of dying.Item Bringing Intimacies into the Discussion: On the Relevance of Addressing Intimate Relationships in a Migration Context(2020) Röhm, MonaTopics such as gender, sexualities, and intimacies, recently experienced processes of instrumentalization and culturalization in European public and political discourses on migration matters. Culturalization is particularly the case when it comes to questions of integration where the cultural Other is contrasted to European values to legitimate political objectives. Romantic love as a marker of living a morally right intimate relationship is in this regard implicitly used to illustrate an incompatibility of Muslim migrants to European ideals of intimacy. Based on conceptual thinking and literature review, this theoretical paper highlights the relevance of addressing intimacies, practices, and intimate ideas within current migration debates in Europe and Austria in particular. It is illustrated that there is a need to link the rising research stream on mobile intimacies to recent Anti-Muslim developments in European discourses. With the concept of belonging, the paper provides a possible approach to understand processes of exclusion and inclusion based on intimate ideas and shows their negotiable character. Further, this paper emphasizes the importance of thinking about Euro-Centric precategorizations and encourages micro-sociological inductive research to grasp the diverse understandings and practices of intimacies.Item Building New Concepts: Concepts in Indigenous Architecture as Interdisciplinary Enhancement Factor?(2018) Tochtermann, VerenaIn contrast to the marginalization of indigenous cultures in architectural analysis, research on indigenous architecture has revealed extraordinary uses of concepts. The difficulty of analyzing the often decategorized buildings not only uncovers the need to improve methods of analysis, but also offers new approaches to analytical methodologies. In particular, the unconventional way of conveying concepts in indigenous architecture offers parameters for rebuilding the limiting boundaries. Following challenges in and research on new methodologies in other disciplines, as represented by Mieke Bal in cultural analysis with the idea of travelling concepts, indigenous architecture promises new perspectives. This contribution therefore presents selected indigenous architectural traditions in Central America, along with their conceptual contents and potential to expand analytic criteria. To stress the diversity of concepts, the first part introduces selected buildings by presenting differences and similarities between architectural principles and intentions. After exposing the limits of typological analysis and the potential of entangled concepts, the article analyzes case studies through terms from Bal s book Travelling Concepts in order to converge the character of indigenous architecture. Finally, the article considers how entangling concepts could generate new perspectives in the architectural discourse as well as in other disciplines.Item Bypassing the law in a homeless vehicle: Alan Bennett's The Lady in the Van(2017) Schniedermann, WibkeIn The Lady in the Van, British playwright Alan Bennett recounts his two-decade acquaintance with a homeless woman who ended up living in a van in his driveway for 15 years. The story has gone through several incarnations, from Bennett s diary entries (published 1989) to a stage play (1999) and a film adaptation (2015). Subverting and disabling the law and its institutions with the help of a vehicle is a key theme in all these versions of the story. Laws regulating the activities and whereabouts of the unhoused poor have notoriously criminalized poverty and excluded the poor from social and economic participation. Legislatures from the 1970s onwards abandoned former attempts to mitigate the circumstances that lead to a loss of shelter. Lawmakers instead adopted a more punitive neoliberal approach that targets homeless individuals through a plethora of new, highly specified illegalities. This essay discusses how Bennett s narrative and its adaptations expose and question the heteronormative, bourgeois-centric practices of anti-homeless laws via a disruption of dominant tropes of poverty and homelessness. Through these subversions, the texts also grapple with the very practical conflicts around invasion of personal space and the mundane inconveniences that are inevitable results of sharing one s private space with a physically and mentally unstable homeless woman. A specific focus will be on the fluidity of the division between public and private spaces that requires constant negotiation within the social microcosm of The Lady in the Van. The socially alien presence of a homeless woman and her unwieldy vehicle complicates the neighbors private and professional lives and, in the process, rattles the structures dictated by different sections of the law, such as parking restrictions, property laws, income support, and traffic regulations.Item Caring like a State: Politicizing Love, Touch, and Precarious Lives in the Time of COVID-19(2020) D´Aoust, Anne-MarieThis essay builds on the extraordinary circumstances brought about by the COVID-19 pandemic to tease out some of the ways in which love has been played out politi-cally in relation to migration. In Canada, as elsewhere in the world, the pandemic suddenly rendered visible the oft-invisible care work traditionally performed by women, and now increasingly so by women of color and asylum seekers. Building on queer theorist Sara Ahmed s understanding of immigration policies as a form of con-ditional love, I investigate various processes of (de)politicization that occurred when love and care became politically mobilized in response to the health crisis. I use the love-body-care constellation as working points to tease out some disciplining and transformative possibilities brought about by love. After discussing Lauren Berlant s and bell hooks reflections on love, I then examine how the pandemic unexpectedly made visible, and sometimes challenged, the politics of touch, love, and care between state-sanctioned hierarchized bodies. While so doing, I notably unpack the guardian angel metaphor that was mobilized to speak of those doing care work, and especially those working as continuing care assistants for the elderly overwhelmingly asylum seekers and women of color in Quebec. Running through the discussion lie lingering existential, political questions: who cares (in both the practical and emotional under-standings of the term), and how do we care about each other with what political consequences?Item Computervermitteltes Lernen : Ein Erfahrungsbericht über die Teilnahme an einem "virtuellen" Seminar(1999) Jacob, Marita; Krebs, DagmarItem A Coordinated Europeanization of the Comics Industry through Distribution: The Politics of the Global Journey of Astérix and Tintin through the Strategic Distribution of their Magazines and Contents in the 1960s(2019) Burton, JessicaResearchers have usually focused on the Tintin and Astérix series global book diffusion through translation. However, little has been discussed about the distribution policies of the comics magazine format, a key factor in the development of European comics. This paper will consider the continentalization of western European national comics industries via the intra-EEC networking of distribution channels during the 1960s. By facilitating the exchange of comics features in the Franco-Belgian area, publishers such as Casterman, Le Lombard, and Dargaud ensured the rise of the industry and of the products they wanted to disseminate. Contemplating the motivations of publishers this article will delve deeper into the emergence of cooperative and competitive distribution channels among national publishers and between countries. Through the archives of Casterman and primary sources this article intends to contribute to a greater understanding of how the carefully planned distribution network of comics influenced the development of the European industry as a whole.Item Curating as research(2016) Gschrey, Raul
