Overview: Wie friedlich sind die Religionen heute?Für Europäer mochte es lange Zeit so scheinen, als seien die Religionen von der weltpolitischen Bühne abgetreten. Nicht nur der 11. September 2001 verdeutlichte jedoch schlagartig, dass sie nach wie vor ein politischer Faktor von eminenter, aber ambivalenter Bedeutung sind. Sie können sowohl Aggressionen auslösen und zur Eskalation von Auseinandersetzungen beitragen als auch deeskalierend und vermittelnd wirken. Die Autoren des vorliegenden Bandes untersuchen das Gewalt- und Konfliktpotenzial der Religionen in theoretischer und empirischer Hins

Overview: The Unitarian confrontation with the late eighteenth-century political establishment is reflected in published sermons, pamphlets and parliamentary debates. Price and Priestley were only the most notorious members of a well-educated, close-knit and highly articulate intellectual opposition, all the more formidable for dominating the major literary reviews. Focusing on many lesser-known dissenting polemicists, this study uncovers unexpected continuities in Unitarian critiques of government policies an questions whether Burke was justified in equating antitrinitarians with French repub

Sei es durch die Notwendigkeit umwelttechnischer Untersuchungen zur Klärung eines möglichen Altlastenverdachts, sei es durch kostenintensive Maßnahmen zur Sanierung von Gebäudeschadstoffen, sei es durch erhöhte Aufwendungen zur Entsorgung kontaminierter Erdmassen. Der Ratgeber Bau erläutert in lexikalischer Form die wi

Overview: a priori, and what is more, to a rejection based ultimately on a posteriori findings; in other words, the "pure" science of nature in Kant‘s sense of the term had proved to be, not only not pure, but even false. As for logic and mathematics, the decisive works of Frege, Russell, and White­ head suggested two conclusions: first, that it was possible to construct mathematics on the basis of logic (logicism), and secondly, that logical propositions had an irrevocably analytic status. But within the frame­ work of logicism, the status of logical propositions is passed on to mathematical

Overview: The UML 2004 conference was held in Lisbon (Portugal) from October 11 through October 15, 2004. It was the seventh conference in a series of annual events that started in 1998. UML has rapidly become one of the leading venues to present and discuss the development of object-oriented modeling. In order to re?ect the changes in the ?eld, the UML conference series will be continued from 2005 onwards under the name MODELS (Model Driven En- neering, Languages and Systems).
