Abstract

As Scandinavian societies experience increased ethno-religious diversity, their Christian-Lutheran heritage and strong traditions of welfare and solidarity are being challenged and contested. This book explores conflicts related to religion as they play out in public broadcasting, social media, local civic settings, and schools. It examines how the mediatization of these controversies influences people's engagement with contested issues about religion, and redraws the boundaries between inclusion and exclusion.

Abstract

The thesis of incommensurability concerns the interrelation between subjective culture and objective culture through which the constitutive agency of chaos (incommensurability) emerges. The objectivations/products, the constituents of objective culture, carry their own Being, and this Being transcends the original subjective expressivities/intentions. The constitutive agency of this incommensurable interrelation becomes apparent in an age of globalization where its effects become global, brin...

Abstract

Der Band präsentiert eine korpusbasierte, kognitionslinguistisch informierte, kritische Diskursanalyse zur sprachlichen Konstruktion von sozialen Großeinheiten wie Kollektiven und Eigen-Gruppen. Insbesondere die Rolle ‚des Westens‘ im sogenannten ‚Kampf der Kulturen‘ in deutschsprachigen Printmedien wird detailliert herausgearbeitet. Präzise analysiert wird der vielfältige Gebrauch des Personalpronomens ‚Wir‘. Die Datengrundlage der – qualitative und quantitative Zugänge verbindenden – repräsentativen Untersuchung bilden mehr als 100.000 Pressetexte deutschsprachiger Zeitschriften und Zeitungen, die in einem Zeitraum von 1993 bis 2019 erschienen sind. Mit ihrem interdisziplinären Zugriff richtet sich die Untersuchung nicht nur an ein linguistisches Fachpublikum, sondern an alle, die in sozialwissenschaftlicher und philosophischer Perspektive an dem komplexen Zusammenhang von Sprache und sozialen Konstruktionen, Diskurs und Identität, Medien und Kollektivität interessiert sind. Die Untersuchung liefert hierzu hochrelevante, korpuslinguistisch fundierte neue Forschungsergebnisse und innovative Terminologien. What is the "clash of civilizations"? What are us-group constructions? What is the West? This critical discourse analysis informed by cognitive linguistics answers these questions in detail using a data set comprising more than 100,000 German-language print media articles. It presents highly relevant findings on the use of "we" and "us," as well as on the media production of large social groups and political and cultural global conflicts.

Abstract

In recent decades, scholars have explored much of the history of mob violence in the American South, especially in the years after Reconstruction. However, the lynching violence that occurred in American regions outside the South, where hundreds of persons, including Hispanics, whites, African Americans, Native Americans, and Asian Americans died at the hands of lynch mobs, has received less attention. This work fills this gap by illuminating the factors that distinguished lynching in the West, the Midwest, and the Mid-Atlantic.
