Social representation theory is a major theoretical framework in European social psychology, yet this is the first single text to cover the main concepts, issues and debates in the field. Loosely based around a translation of Wolfgang Wagner's classic text Alltagsdiskurs (currently only available in German), this is an all new book, approaching the major theoretical, epistemological and empirical frameworks of modern social representation research in a fresh way, reflecting the considerable changes of the past decade.

are far from genetically ? xing what behavioral preferences they may possess. Instead, learning mechanisms offer a ? exible way of attaining locally important cultural knowledge within temporal windows of opportunity as has been convi- ingly shown by research in language and culture attainment. Similar mechanisms are likely to exist for other social capacities, such as mate preferences, for example. It is this role of our biological inheritance that social science must appreciate in order to furnish a more complete understanding of human behavior. Within the natural range of variation of...

Stochastic numerical methods play an important role in large scale computations in the applied sciences. The first goal of this book is to give a mathematical description of classical direct simulation Monte Carlo (DSMC) procedures for rarefied gases, using the theory of Markov processes as a unifying framework. The second goal is a systematic treatment of an extension of DSMC, called stochastic weighted particle method. This method includes several new features, which are introduced for the purpose of variance reduction (rare event simulation). Rigorous convergence results as well as...

Der Medizin des ausklingenden 20. Jahrhunderts - insbesondere im Bereich der Nervenheilkunde - stellen sich verst rkt Fragen nach dem Selbstbestimmungsrecht und der W rde des Patienten, nach den wachsenden Konflikten im Umgang mit Not, Schmerz und Krise, nach der Autorit t des Therapeuten, aber auch nach den Grenzen des wissenschaftlichen Fortschrit s. Nirgendwo sind die diagnostischen Kriterien subjektiver, die Ermessungsspielr ume weiter, die Grenzen zwischen gesund und krank flie ender als in der Psychiatrie. Hier befindet sich der behandelnde Arzt in einem besonders starken Spannungsfeld...

This Brief looks at the illustrative case of the Hindu-Muslim conflict in India, with the aim of understanding the dynamics of lived secularism as it exists in traditional multi-faith societies such as India. The data analyzed in this Brief comprise many interviews, conducted amidst Hindus and Muslims, with respondents of both sexes living in slum and middle class regions in the city of Mumbai. The volume begins by giving a brief summary of the historical and cultural background to the present situation in India. It then traces complementarities and similarities of opinions across diverse...

The contributions in this book adress the question of how to develop and foster democratic competences. This may take place via school curricula, resource materials and tea-ching/learning methods; in workplaces by means of formalised arrangements that encourage self-direction and through the informal processes engendered by expansive working environ-ments; and in personal and community life, including in the course of incidental learning in social networks, including as consumers. The studies and analyses are somewhat nonconformist in its thematic spread and its boundary-crossing between...
