Religious Knowledge and Positioning
What should one know in order to position oneself vis-à-vis other religions and confessions? What is religious knowledge and how should it be taught? This volume sheds light on educational media in Judaism and Christianity such as catechisms, children’s bibles, and sermons as well as Jewish and Protestant teacher training in 19th-century Germany and explores the methodological potentials of educational media as a source for (inter-)religious history. It reflects on broader processes of knowledge production and the impact of science and scholarship on religious edu-cation and knowledge production within Christian and Jewish contexts.

Peace Education and Religion: Perspectives, Pedagogy, Policies
Whether formally incorporated into curriculum and teacher training or informally integrated in contexts such as state or NGO initiatives dealing with resolving social, ethnic, and religious conflicts, peace education is increasingly recognized as a critical component in addressing violence in contemporary plural societies. Peace education can constructively undertake a reframing of historical narratives while inspiring practical community activities. An important, but insufficiently studied and theorized aspect of peace education is the role of religion. The challenge to peace education in today’s globalized, diverse, mobile, and religiously pluralistic world is to be able to take both complex global and distinctive local situations into account. The contributions to this integrative collection of essays provide exactly these local and global perspectives on the state of peace education and its relationship to religion across pedagogy and curriculum, state policies, and activism within societies on the front lines of resolving internal conflicts, whether historical or recent, that often reflect aspects of religious identities.

Sinnerschließungen der Seele
"Die Seele als Gegenstand der Seelsorge ist keineswegs eindeutig. Vielmehr wird ein vielschichtiger Problemhorizont berührt, der nach systematischen Klärungen verlangt. Alexander Dietz zeigt, welche Bedeutungen mit der Rede von der Seele in der Seelsorgetheorie und in der Religionstheorie erschlossen werden. Als impulsgebend erweisen sich dabei hermeneutische Überlegungen zur humanen Sinnkonstitution." --
Audience Research Methodologies
The transformations of people’s relations to media content, technologies and institutions raise new methodological challenges and opportunities for audience research. This edited volume aims at contributing to the development of the repertoire of methods and methodologies for audience research by reviewing and exemplifying approaches that have been stimulated by the changing conditions and practices of audiences. The contributions address a range of issues and approaches related to the diversification, integration and triangulation of methods for audience research, to the gap between the researched and the researchers, to the study of online social networks, and to the opportunities brought about by Web 2.0 technologies as research tools.
beziehungsweise
Michael Herbst stellt in diesem Buch Grundlagen und Praxisfelder evangelischer Seelsorge dar. Sie geschieht »beziehungsweise«, nämlich als Heilung von Beziehungen, die aus dem Lot geraten sind. Das betrifft die Beziehungen zum anderen Menschen und zur Welt, zu sich selbst und zu Gott. Solche Seelsorge, die in spezifi schen Praxisfeldern geschieht, lebt aus der Erwartung des dem Menschen entgegenkommenden Gottes. Sie ist Auftrag der gesamten christlichen Gemeinde und hat eine elementare missionarische Dimension. In der Seelsorge ist es die Aufgabe der christlichen Gemeinde, mit Menschen in unterschiedlichen Lebenslagen über existentielle Fragen im Horizont des christlichen Glaubens zu spr...
