April 2012Der Sommer, in dem Linda schwimmen lernte
Roman
by Roy Jacobsen, Gabriele Haefs
Alles ändert sich im Leben des zehnjährigen Finn, als plötzlich seine kleine Halbschwester Linda mutterseelenallein vor der Tür steht – mit einem himmelblauen Koffer und jeder Menge emotionalem Sprengstoff … Es ist das Jahr 1961 – das Jahr, in dem John F. Kennedy Präsident wird, Gagarin in den Weltraum fliegt und der Bau der Berliner Mauer beginnt. Finn wächst in einer schmucklosen Vorstadt von Oslo auf, das Leben ist einfach und sozialdemokratisch. Er ist ein schmächtiger Junge, aber vielleicht der Klügste seiner Klasse. Wacker schlägt er sich mit seiner Mutter durch den Alltag, seit der Vater gestorben ist. Bis eines Tages die kleine Linda Einzug hält: Die Sechsjährige wirkt merkwürdig, pummelig ist sie, abwesend und schweigsam. Auch die Mutter, der einstige Fels in der Brandung, ist anders als sonst. Für Finn beginnt ein Sommer, den er nie vergessen wird … »Der Sommer, in dem Linda schwimmen lernte« ist ein Familienroman voller Wärme und Magie und eine ergreifende Geschichte über die große Macht des Kleinen.

Humanities & Social SciencesMarch 2022Civic identity and public space
Belfast since 1780
by Dominic Bryan, Sean J. Connolly, John Nagle
Civic identity and public space, focussing on Belfast, and bringing together the work of a historian and two social scientists, offers a new perspective on the sometimes lethal conflicts over parades, flags and other issues that continue to disrupt political life in Northern Ireland. It examines the emergence during the nineteenth century of the concept of public space and the development of new strategies for its regulation, the establishment, the new conditions created by the emergence in 1920 of a Northern Ireland state, of a near monopoly of public space enjoyed by Protestants and unionists, and the break down of that monopoly in more recent decades. Today policy makers and politicians struggle to devise a strategy for the management of public space in a divided city, while endeavouring to promote a new sense of civic identity that will transcend long-standing sectarian and political divisions.

Humanities & Social SciencesApril 2014Radical democracy
Politics between abundance and lack
by Simon Tormey, Lars Toender, Lasse Thomassen, Jon Simons
Available at last in paperback, Radical democracy brings together original contributions from established and emerging scholars. The contributors discuss the theoretical and practical implications of the two dominant approaches to radical democracy: theories of abundance inspired by Gilles Deleuze and theories of lack inspired by Jacques Lacan. They examine the idea of radical democracy from a wide variety of perspectives: identity/difference, the public sphere, social movements, nature, popular culture, right wing populism and political economy. In addition, the volume relates the work of contemporary thinkers such as Deleuze, Lacan, Derrida and Foucault to classical thinkers such as Spinoza, Hegel, Marx and Nietzsche. William Connolly and Ernesto Laclau conclude the volume with two afterwords on the future of radical democracy. With its original contributions, Radical democracy is essential reading for advanced students and scholars who have an interest in the political and theoretical problems of radical democracy. ;
