Desert Harvest
Author: Robert Wild
Publisher: Wipf and Stock Publishers
ISBN: 1532682751
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 129
Book Description
Everyone really lives in the desert of his or her own cell, his or her own soul. Today this solitary existence is heightened by the loneliness created by the modern world. Perhaps never before in the history of the world have so many people been forced to enter their personal loneliness because of circumstances. The monk enters these deserts voluntarily, whereas now the world is peopled by reluctant monks who have not chosen to be alone. Their loneliness could become communion. The key, of course, is to choose the desert. This book is an attempt to share with all desert dwellers everywhere, the committed and the reluctant, the fruits of what God has taught.

Moral Collectives
Author: Stefan Joller
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 3658401478
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 208
Book Description
Whether terrorist attacks, refugee or financial crises - the challenges of globalized modernity expose those areas that Durkheim described as anomic and whose processing still illustrates the central position of moral communication. There is some evidence to suggest that progressive functional differentiation does not erode morality, but actually promotes a remoralization of society through increasing communicative networking. Wherever grievances come to light and it is not foreseeable how they could be satisfactorily resolved in the modus operandi, morality provides a promising instrument which, in the form of moral collectives, is able to permeate everyday life and shape society. In this sense, the anthology is dedicated to a theoretical as well as empirical analysis of morality, which takes shape as a genuinely social quantity via moral collectives. This book is a translation of an original German edition. The translation was done with the help of artificial intelligence (machine translation by the service DeepL.com). A subsequent human revision was done primarily in terms of content, so that the book will read stylistically differently from a conventional translation.

Global Perspectives on Media Events in Contemporary Society
Author: Fox, Andrew
Publisher: IGI Global
ISBN: 146669968X
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 329
Book Description
Media events have been described as broadcasts that involve an engaged audience viewing the same event simultaneously; though this definition is still relevant, the way media outlets interact with and react to their audiences has greatly changed. This is in part due to the emergence of social media platforms which allow a participatory audience, something that genre-specific television channels now rely on. Because these genre-specific, 24-hour channels seek to hook viewers with hyperbolic presentation and the illusion of large media events, the original definition must be adapted. Global Perspectives on Media Events in Contemporary Society seeks to re-define the role of the media in relaying information about current events within a modern context. Determining what constitutes as and the proper presentation of a media event is of great importance given the ubiquity of media consumption. This book approaches the topic from historical, ceremonial, and globally cultural perspectives while addressing news, sports, and other significant current events. It is a vital resource for students and teachers of communication, media, and journalism, professionals in the media industry, policy makers, and sociologists.

Scandalogy: An Interdisciplinary Field
Author: André Haller
Publisher: Herbert von Halem Verlag
ISBN: 3869622490
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 234
Book Description
Die Enthüllung der Panama Papers im April 2016 machte erneut deutlich, welche globale Wirkmacht Skandale entfalten können. Skandale bringen Politiker zu Fall, stürzen Wirtschaftslenker und beenden Sportkarrieren. Sie kommen in jedem gesellschaftlichen Feld vor, führen zu enormer medialer Berichterstattung und zu einer lebhaften öffentlichen Diskussion über Werte und Normen – sie sind ein soziales Phänomen. Als solches stellen Skandale sehr häufig auch einen Forschungsgegenstand unterschiedlicher Wissenschaften dar: Politikwissenschaftler analysieren zum Beispiel die Funktionsfähigkeit von politischen Regeln und Institutionen, die Kommunikationswissenschaft untersucht mögliche Wirkungen von Skandalberichterstattung und den Verlauf von Affären in unterschiedlichen Medien, in der Literaturwissenschaft werden Skandalautoren und ihr öffentliches Verhalten thematisiert, die Soziologie blickt auf den Geltungsbereich gesellschaftlicher Werte und Normen, die sich durch Skandaldiskurse verändern können. Der Band Scandalogy vereint Beiträge internationaler Forscherinnen und Forscher zum Themenfeld ›Skandal‹. Er präsentiert sowohl empirische Studien als auch theoretische Erkenntnisse, die 2016 bei der 1st International Conference in Scandalogy an der Universität Bamberg präsentiert wurden. Die Bandbreite reicht von kommunikationswissenschaftlichen Studien bis hin zu literaturwissenschaftlichen Analysen. Die Vielzahl der Fächer, die sich mit dem sozialen Phänomen des Skandals beschäftigen, zeigt, dass ›Skandalogie‹ ein eigenständiger Forschungsbereich ist.
