        Ohne Frauen ist kein Staat zu machen

        Hundert Politikerinnen

        by Luise F. Pusch, Andrea Schweers

        Sie trug weder Streitaxt noch Männerkleider wie Jeanne d’Arc, nein, sie betrat die politische Bühne im Kostüm und mit Handtasche. Auf die Frage, wie man sich denn so fühle als weiblicher Premier, antwortete Margaret Thatcher: »Keine Ahnung, ich habe die Alternative nie ausprobiert.« Inzwischen hat nicht nur Deutschland eine Kanzlerin, auch in Liberia, Mosambik, Chile, Neuseeland, Pakistan, Irland, Lettland und Finnland machen Frauen Staat. Hundert Politikerinnen präsentiert Luise F. Pusch in ihrem kleinen »Lexikon«: Madeleine Albright, Michelle Bachelet, Hillary Clinton, Indira Gandhi, Emma Goldman, Tarja Halonen, Alexandra Kollontai, Ulrike Meinhof, Clara Zetkin und viele mehr.

        American film and politics from Reagan to Bush Jr

        by Philip Davies, Paul Wells

        Covers a crucial two decades in American history, when the links between Hollywood and Washington DC were at their strongest.. The period is 'book-ended' by the mighty political and cinematic figures of Reagan and Clinton.. Covers a period in which movies have become targets of political rhetoric of 'family values'.. Essays examine cinematic views of key American political institutions - the presidency and electoral process, politically significant places such as New York City and the American South, the promotion of major issues like gender, family and race. This is a subject which has gained new significance in the wake of recent terrorist attacks in New York and Washington DC, which have changed both the political climate, and the priorities of the movie industry. ;

        Das »neue« Amerika

        Außenpolitik unter Barack Obama

        by Peter Rudolf

        An keinen US-Präsidenten knüpften sich in den letzten Jahrzehnten so große Hoffnungen wie an Barack Obama. Tatsächlich legte er nach seiner Amtseinführung ein unglaubliches Tempo vor: Die Truppen in Afghanistan werden aufgestockt, Guantanamo soll geschlossen werden, der neue Präsident hat den Dialog mit der islamischen Welt zu einem Teil seines Programms gemacht. Zugleich stehen Obama und seine Außenministerin Hillary Clinton jedoch vor einigen Problemen: Die globale Wirtschaftskrise breitet sich aus, die Kriege in Afghanistan und im Irak dauern an, Iran kommt der Fähigkeit zum Bau von Atomwaffen immer näher und die Nuklearmacht Pakistan steht am Rande des Chaos. Peter Rudolf zieht eine Bilanz der ersten Monate der neuen amerikanischen Außenpolitik und legt dar, welche Herausforderungen sich daraus für Deutschland ergeben.

        Refractions of Bob Dylan

        Cultural appropriations of an American icon

        by Edited by Eugen Banauch

        Bob Dylan's cultural production in the second half of the twentieth century, his songs, but also his changing images and self-fashionings have informed and productively re/shaped certain images of America from outside and within. Refractions of Bob Dylan collects scholarly essays which thoroughly investigate the routes of Bob Dylan's cultural appropriations. The collection looks at how Dylan has been used and interpreted by others, and how his work has been reworked into cultural expressions in culturally and regionally divergent spaces. Additionally, a number of essays look at what Dylan has appropriated and incorporated in his own work, focusing on questions of plagiarism, tribute, allusion, love and theft. Some of the essays originate from the Refractions of Bob Dylan conference in Vienna (www.dylanvienna.at) which took place around the 70th birthday of Bob Dylan, and included Dylan experts such as Clinton Heylin, Stephen Scobie and Michael Gray.
