Just before the summer of 1982, French philosopher Michel Foucault gave a series of lectures at Victoria University in Toronto. In these lectures, which were part of his project of writing a genealogy of the modern subject, he is concerned with the care and cultivation of the self, a theme that becomes central to the second, third, and fourth volumes of his History of Sexuality. Throughout his career, Foucault had always been interested in the question of how constellations of knowledge and power produce and shape subjects, and in the last phase of his life, he became especially interested not only in how subjects are formed by these forces, but in how they ethically constitute themselves. In this lecture series and accompanying seminar, Foucault focuses on antiquity, starting with classical Greece, the early Roman Empire, and concluding with Christian monasticism in the fourth and fifth centuries AD. Foucault traces the development of a new kind of verbal practice-"speaking the truth about oneself"-in which the subject increasingly comes to be defined by its inner thoughts and desires. He deemed this new form of "hermeneutical" subjectivity important not just for historical reasons but also due to its enduring significance in modern society. Is another form of the self possible today?

In this book, basic statistical knowledge is conveyed in an understandable and application-oriented manner. The readers should be enabled to carry out their own empirical evaluations and to understand or critically reflect on existing analyses. The third edition is extended by a detailed chapter on the logic of significance tests. A replication syntax for the statistical program Stata is provided online as supplementary material.

Now in paperback, this collection of Foucault’s lectures traces the historical formation and contemporary significance of the hermeneutics of the self.

Die Beitrage des Sammelbandes befassen sich aus theoretischen und empirischen Perspektiven mit der Frage, wie sich gesellschaftliche Entwicklungen im privaten, familialen und politischen Leben soziologisch erklaren lassen. Dabei gilt es, sowohl die Potentiale als auch die Grenzen ursachlicher Erklarungen in der Soziologie sowie ihre praktische Anschlussfahigkeit zu reflektieren. Hierzu vereint der Sammelband Beitrage aus den Bereichen Familiensoziologie und demographischer Wandel, politische Soziologie, empirische Sozialforschung, soziologische und politische Theorie.

Die Sozialwissenschaftler Florian G. Hartmann und Daniel Lois erklaren in diesem Essential Schritt fur Schritt und auf Nachvollziehbarkeit bedacht, wie im Rahmen einer quantitativen Untersuchung Hypothesen uberpruft werden. Dabei werden methodische und statistische Grundbegriffe besprochen und komplexere Sachverhalte anhand von alltagsnahen Beispielen erlautert. Die Autoren schoepfen bei den Erklarungen aus ihrer Lehr- und Forschungstatigkeit und berucksichtigen die Erfahrungen ihres eigenen Studiums.

Bereits die Alltagsbeobachtung zeigt, dass die Kirchen uberwiegend von alteren Menschen besucht werden. Dies ist einerseits durch einen Kohorteneffekt erklarbar: Altere Menschen wurden haufig noch in verstarktem Masse religios erzogen und diese in der Sozialisation erworbenen Pragungen bleiben moglicherweise ein Leben lang erhalten. Andererseits ist denkbar, dass Menschen im Laufe ihres Lebens zunehmend dazu tendieren, einer Glaubensgemeinschaft anzugehoren und den Gottesdienst zu besuchen. Die vorliegende Arbeit untersucht mit Hilfe von Daten des Sozio-oekonomischen Panels (SOEP), ob ein derartiger Alterseffekt auf die kirchliche Religiositat vorliegt. Daruber hinaus wird der Frage nachgegangen, wie sich die Religiositat in Bezug auf verschiedene Lebensphasen und Ereignisse zum Beispiel durch den Erwerbseinstieg, die Geburt eines Kindes oder einen Umzug von den neuen in die alten Bundeslander verandert."

The rule of the Watchers is coming to a close. As the vise grip of their global empire begins to shatter, humanity and its Earth have been caught in the wake of its fall. Murders, thefts, and endless bloodshed have brought the world to the brink of utter desolation. Chema, the aging bringer of wrath, stands at the summit of Mount Hermon, where the Watchers' footstool of power is placed on the Earth. Having spent a lifetime hunting down and slaughtering the nephilim, the hybrid offspring of the twelve heavenly ones, Chema has come here now to face the ones responsible for spawning them. Expecting to walk into the full power of their might Chema is dismayed to find the palaces left ruined and the Watchers having fled from the mount.

Following whispers of an impending judgment soon to come and signs in the heavens above the high waters, Chema will have to journey across the unimaginable antediluvian world to discover what is soon to befall the last of mankind. But will the actions he takes in order to finally stand in the court of the Watchers be the catalyst for an impending doom meant to wash away the blight of man?

"Verliebt, verlobt, verheiratet Auch wenn sich die Entwicklung von Partnerschaften und Beziehungen in diesem Kindervers so einfach anhort, in der Realitat sind die Prozesse, durch die Partnerschaften eine gewisse Dauerhaftigkeit erreichen, wesentlich komplizierter. In dem vorliegenden Buch wird untersucht, welche Zwischenschritte bei der Institutionalisierung von Beziehungen wichtig sind und durch welche Umstande diese Verfestigung der Partnerschaft befordert oder behindert werden. Daruber hinaus wird untersucht, welche Rolle die personlichen Netzwerke spielen und welche Ursachen und Folgen Trennungen in den verschiedenen Phasen einer Partnerschaft aufweisen.
