In this cultural anthropological examination Frauke Johanna Ahrens enquires into the scientific significance of the herbarium sheets of the Herbarium Göttingen in the period from 1832 to 1852. Based on a historical, object-focused ethnography and praxeology she itemizes how during the establishing phase of the collection institutionalized in 1832 the scientific practices and epistemic interests mutually influenced one another and found expression in the botanical specimens themselves. Each of the five chapters is dedicated to one practice - opening up the collection, ascribing values, acquiring plant material, doing research on herbarium sheets and teaching with herbarium sheets. Together with detailed object descriptions, the analysis emphasizes the materiality of knowledge in this way.

Society is never just a localized aggregate of people but exists by virtue of its members' narrative and conceptual awareness of other times and places. In Jukka Siikala's work this idea evolves into a broad ethnographic and theoretical interest in worlds beyond the horizon, in the double sense of "past" and "abroad." This book is a tribute to Jukka's contributions to anthropology by his colleagues and students and marks his 60th birthday in January 2007. By exploring the near, distant, inward and outward horizons towards which societies project their reality, the authors aim at developing a new, productive language for addressing culture as a way of experiencing and engaging the world.

Flüchtlinge in Deutschland: 2015 war der Sommer der Projekte. Im Umgang mit den durch Zuwanderung gegebenen Herausforderungen erwies sich die Zivilgesellschaft als außerordentlich kreativ und stellte sich neu auf. Jetzt ist es Zeit, Bilanz zu ziehen: Was hat sich bewährt, wo und wie konnte Nachhaltigkeit hergestellt werden? Welche Rolle spielte dabei ein gelingendes Zusammenwirken von Politik, Verwaltung und zivilgesellschaftlichen Akteuren? Der Band fragt aber auch nach den Gründen für gescheiterte Projekte: Wo und warum konnte das Engagement nicht durchgehalten werden? Schließlich werden die Folgen für die politische Kultur diskutiert: Wie hat das Engagement das Selbstverständnis der Zivilgesellschaft in Deutschland verändert?

"Liz Bucar navigates the thorny terrain of religious appropriation, from yoga classes to non-Muslims who signal allyship by donning hijabs. Exploring the ethics of alleged appropriations, Bucar argues that borrowing isn't itself a problem, as long as we are invested in our enthusiasms-committed to understanding their roots and diverse meanings"--

In recent years craft beer marketing has increasingly evoked the medieval past in order to appeal to our collective sense of a lost community. This book discusses the desire for the local, the non-corporate, and the pre-modern in the discourse of craft brewing, forming a strong counter-cultural narrative. However, such discourses also reinforce colonial histories of purity and conquest while effacing indigenous voices. This book reveals that craft beer is therefore much more than a delicious adult beverage; its marketing reveals a cultural desire for a past that has disappeared in a world that privileges the present.
