        Visionen des Politischen

        by Quentin Skinner, Marion Heinz, Martin Rühl, Robin Celikates, Eva Engels

        Quentin Skinner ist einer der profiliertesten Historiker der Gegenwart und führender Kopf der »Cambridge School of Intellectual History«. Seine Neubegründung der Ideengeschichte auf der Grundlage der Sprachphilosophie Wittgensteins und der Sprechakttheorie Austins sowie seine daran geschulte Auseinandersetzung mit Klassikern des politischen Denkens sind international breit rezipiert worden und bilden eine höchst originelle Alternative zu der hierzulande vorherrschenden theorie- und begriffsgeschichtlich ausgerichteten Historiographie und politischen Philosophie. Der Band macht repräsentative Beiträge Skinners aus dessen dreibändiger Sammlung Visions of Politics, die das ganze Spektrum seines Forschungsansatzes abdecken, erstmals in deutscher Übersetzung zugänglich. Ein Nachwort der Herausgeber führt in das Denken Quentin Skinners ein.

        Unser Lichtenberg

        by Inge Traxler, Hans Traxler

        Georg Christoph Lichtenberg spottet und rühmt, mahnt und klagt, liebt und genießt, glaubt und zweifelt, empört und begeistert sich. Nichts und niemand ist ihm zu groß oder zu gering. Der Mann, der seinen Pantoffeln und einem Ofen Namen gibt, verkehrt und korrespondiert mit den Großen seiner Zeit. Er hat sich nichts vormachen lassen und war seiner Zeit weit voraus. In seinen Sudelbüchern, Briefen und Tagebuchnotizen hat er uns geistreiche und ironische Aphorismen für alle Lebenslagen hinterlassen. Die schönsten und prägnantesten Gedanken hat Inge Traxler für diesen Band ausgewählt. Hans Traxler hat sie auf seine Weise interpretiert.

        Reframing Margaret Thatcher

        Genre, form, and the making of post-Thatcherism in British film and TV

        by Felipe Espinoza Garrido

        Against the backdrop of Britain's historically anti-Thatcherite films of the 1980s and 1990s, Reframing Margaret Thatcher outlines a decisive shift in the collective imagination of Thatcher. Drawing on genre, trauma, and queer studies, it demonstrates how post-Thatcherite films reflect upon their own entanglement in the polarization of the Thatcher years but also rewrite the clichéd Iron Lady. Chapters on The Iron Lady, This is England, Doomsday, 9 Dead Gay Guys, and the Sherlock TV series investigate various Thatcher imaginations, ranging from Thatcher as a lesbian mob boss, as prime minister in apocalyptic England, to Thatcher as an empty bust. This innovative study shows how the apparent depoliticization of British film makes visible new relations between genre, cinematic form, and imaginations of the past and offers fresh perspectives that both critique and reinterpret Thatcher's enduring impact.

        Syria and the chemical weapons taboo

        Exploiting the forbidden

        by Michelle Bentley

        This book analyses the Syria crisis and the role of chemical weapons in relation to US foreign policy. The Syrian government's use of such weapons and their subsequent elimination has dominated the US response to the conflict, where these are viewed as particularly horrific arms - a repulsion known as the chemical taboo. On the surface, this would seem to be an appropriate reaction: these are nasty weapons and eradicating them would ostensibly comprise a 'good' move. But this book reveals two new aspects of the taboo that challenge this prevailing view. First, actors use the taboo strategically to advance their own self-interested policy objectives. Second, that applying the taboo to Syria has actually exacerbated the crisis. As such, this book not only provides a timely analysis of Syria, but also a major and original rethink of the chemical taboo, as well as international norms more widely.
