Abstract

Explores ethnicity, politics and Islam in Turkey in the 21st-centuryNew perspectives on ethnic relations, Islam and neoliberalism have emerged in Turkey since the rise of the Justice and Development Party (AKP) in 2002. Placing the period within its historical and contemporary context, Tahir Abbas argues that what it is to be ethnically, religiously and culturally Turkish has been transformed. He explores how issues of political trust, social capital and intolerance towards minorities have characterised Turkey in the early years of the 21st-century. He shows how a radical neoliberal economic and conservative outlook has materialised, leading to a clash over the religious, political and cultural direction of Turkey. These conflicts are defining the future of the nation.Key featuresUses original qualitative data and observational analysis of the Gezi Park protests of 2013 and of a Kurdish community in the southeast of Turkey to explore aspects of political resistance and mobilisationAnalyses attitudes and perceptions of Turkish respondents based on survey data from the European Social SurveyIncludes case studies to provide an insight on intergroup relations, social conflict and cultural cohesion in TurkeyOffers an important contribution to the discussion of Islamism, capitalism and democracy in Turkey

Abstract

A masterfully researched and compelling history of Iran from 1501 to 2009 This history of modern Iran is not a survey in the conventional sense but an ambitious exploration of the story of a nation. It offers a revealing look at how events, people, and institutions are shaped by currents that sometimes reach back hundreds of years. The book covers the complex history of the diverse societies and economies of Iran against the background of dynastic changes, revolutions, civil wars, foreign occupation, and the rise of the Islamic Republic. Abbas Amanat combines chronological and thematic approaches, exploring events with lasting implications for modern Iran and the world. Drawing on diverse historical scholarship and emphasizing the twentieth century, he addresses debates about Iran’s culture and politics. Political history is the driving narrative force, given impetus by Amanat's decades of research and study. He layers the book with discussions of literature, music, and the arts; ideology and religion; economy and society; and cultural identity and heritage.

Abstract

Die Beschäftigung mit dem Koran ist nicht nur ein zentrales Interesse muslimischer Gelehrsamkeit, sie ist auch wichtig, um die geistig-religiösen Hintergründe der verschiedenen - fundamentalistischen, liberalen, traditionellen oder modernen - Positionen im Islam zu verstehen. Dieser Band diskutiert texthermeneutische Zugänge aus verschiedenen Regionen des Islam - von der Türkei über Ägypten, Syrien, den Iran bis hin zu Indien. Die Beiträge konturieren die Koranexegese als eine Mix-and-Match-Hermeneutik, an der verschiedene Akteure mit unterschiedlichen Erkenntnisinteressen, methodischen Ansätzen und Lebenserfahrungen beteiligt sind. Auf diese Weise wird die Pluralität im islamischen Denken und Handeln als selbstverständlich erachtet und u.a. in den unterschiedlichen Zugängen zum Koran begründet. O-Ton: »Koran lesen und verstehen« - Abbas Poya im Interview beim ZDF. »Dieser Band zeigt die Breite und Vielfalt der Koranexegese und der mit ihr verbundenen Interessenlagen auf.« Oliver Neumann, www.lehrerbibliothek.de, 11 (2017)

Abstract

This book highlights the important role of neutrophils in health as well as in the pathogenesis of various diseases. Section 1 provides a general background information regarding the mechanisms and various triggers of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) formation and their role in various infectious and noninfectious diseases (such as postinjury inflammation). Section 2 provides recent evidence regarding the role of neutrophils in the pathogenesis as well as a therapeutic target for selected disease conditions such as periodontal diseases, rheumatoid arthritis, and cystic fibrosis. Section 3 describes the anti-inflammatory properties of neutrophils with focus regarding their role in graft versus host disease. This book provides a wider picture with regard to the importance of this immune cell type in various diseases with focus on one of its recently discovered properties, NETs. Therapeutic targets aimed to modulate neutrophil functions might provide novel approaches in the treatment of various diseases of infectious and noninfectious origin.
