This book combines intersectional perspectives and urban research to demonstrate the importance of intersectionality as a concept that can complement “refigurational” understandings of social change as the outcome of spatial conflicts. Showing how intersectionality enables us to grasp the intersecting categories of inequality in these spatial tensions, it remains attentive to the role of social difference and power in these processes, as well as to modes of normativity and resistance. With case studies gathered from a range of national contexts, it provides rich empirical insights into the relationship between urban spatialities, power dynamics, and embodied social inequalities, addressi...
Considering Space demonstrates what has changed in the perception of space within the social sciences and how useful – indeed indispensable – this category is today. While the seemingly deterritorializing effects of digitalization might suggest that space is a secondary consideration, this book proves such a presumption wrong, with territories, borders, distances, proximity, geographical ecologies, land use, physical infrastructures – as well as concepts of space – all being shown still to matter, perhaps more than ever before. Seeking to show how society can and should be perceived as spatial, it will appeal to scholars of sociology, geography, architecture and urban studies.

This book examines a variety of subjective spatial experiences and knowledge production practices in order to shed new light on the specifics of contemporary socio-spatial change, driven as it is by inter alia, digitalization, transnationalization, and migration. Considering the ways in which emerging spatial phenomena are conditioned by an increasing interconnectedness, this book asks how spaces are changing as a result of mediatization, increased mobility, globalization, and social disl...
Listening, experiencing, drawing or interpreting spaces: narratives, experiences, visualizations and discourses can be helpful for the empirical investigation of spaces. This interdisciplinary handbook presents a broad spectrum of established methods and innovative method development to capture and understand different facets of spaces. Instructive explanations and concrete examples make the varied qualitative methods of spatial research understandable and applicable across disciplines. The theoretical and methodological aspects of qualitative spatial research form the framework of this handbook.
Young people imagine, perceive, experience, talk about, use, and produce space in a wide variety of ways. In doing so, they acquire and produce stocks of spatial knowledge. A quite dynamic and ever-changing process by nature, young people’s production and acquisition of spatial knowledge are susceptible to many kinds of conditions—from those that shape their everyday routines to those that constitute historical turning points. Against this backdrop and drawing on a qualitative metaanalysis, the authors set out to discover what changes the spatial knowledge of young people has undergone during the past five decades. To that end, sixty published studies were sampled, analyzed, and synthesi...

Das Jonabuch ist eine der reizvollsten und wohl immer noch bekanntesten Geschichten des Alten Testaments, was Grund genug sein dÃ"rfte, nach dem Anliegen der Erzählung vor ihrem mutmaÃlichen zeitgeschichtlichen Hintergrund zu fragen und darÃ"ber nachzudenken, welche Botschaft sie in der aktuellen Situation zu sagen hat. Die vorliegende Arbeit geht vor allem der historischen Interpretation nach, versucht aber auch einen BrÃ"ckeschlag zur Gegenwart. Da sie das Gespräch mit einer FÃ"lle älterer und neuerer exegetischer Literatur sucht, kann sie auch als EinfÃ"hrung in die Probleme der Jona-Exegese gelesen werden.
Vols. 1-2 include Bericht über die Tagung für Erkenntnislehre der exakten Wissenschaften, 1929-1930; v. 5-7 include addresses given at the International Congress for the Unity of Science, 1934-1938.
