This collective volume celebrates that 75 years ago the foundation was laid for the Department of Anthropology and Development Studies at Radboud University, Nijmegen, the Netherlands. The contributions to this volume exemplify the evolution of the academic disciplines of anthropology and development studies at Radboud University in the course of its history. Radboud University itself celebrates its centenary in the year 2023. Originally this university was established for the emancipation of the Catholic population in the Netherlands. Emancipation continues to be a distinctive feature of the university's policy, also of the scholarship as it is conducted in the department of anthropology and development studies. As emancipation and engagement are key concepts in the disciplines of anthropology and development studies at Radboud University, former and current staff members focus their contributions to this anniversary volume on the various meanings of the concepts of emancipation and engagement in their academic practices. They reflect on changes in the meaning of engaged scholarship in their own work, especially in relation to emancipatory issues. The outcome is a rich variety of contributions centering on the shifting tension between engagement and scholarship in the disciplines of anthropology and development studies. Thus, they not only exemplify the evolution of these academic disciplines at Radboud University, but also offer a topical and innovative perspective on a highly dynamic field.

Representing Vulnerabilities in Contemporary Literature includes a collection of essays exploring the ways in which recent literary representations of vulnerability may problematize its visibilization from an ethical and aesthetic perspective. Recent technological and scientific developments have accentuated human vulnerability in many and different ways at a cross-national, and even cross-species level. Disability, technological, and ecological vulnerabilities are new foci of interest that add up to gender, precarity and trauma, among others, as forms of vulnerability in this volume. The literary visualization of these vulnerabilities might help raise social awareness of one's own vulnerabilities as well as those of others so as to bring about global solidarity based on affinity and affect. However, the literary representation of forms of vulnerability might also deepen stigmatization phenomena and trivialize the spectacularization of vulnerability by blunting readers' affective response towards those products that strive to hold their attention and interest in an information-saturated, global entertainment market.

Denne antologien utgjør hovedrapporten etter et tre-årig innovasjonsprosjekt som har hatt hovedfokus på samarbeidet mellom barnehage/skole og PP-tjenesten, og etablering av et samarbeid der man i fellesskap utvikler kompetanse for inkluderende praksis. Forskere ved NLA Høgskolen, Universitetet i Stavanger og Statped har gått inn i et partnerskap der man både har støttet de ulike innovasjonsprosessene og fulgt prosessene gjennom datainnsamling og analyse. Slik samsvarer dette innovasjonsprosjektet på flere måter med profilen i den nasjonale strategien Kompetanseløftet for spesialpedagogikk og inkluderende praksis, som er iverksatt i løpet av prosjektperioden. Erfaringene som presenteres i antologien vil derfor være relevante og aktuelle både for aktører i universitets- og høgkolesektoren og i kommunene.
