Som studerende og forsker i statskundskab stræber man efter at opnå en systematisk forståelse af samfundsmæssige og politiske forhold. Kernen i dette arbejde er en metodisk stringent tilgang og en stærk bevidsthed om metoder. I enhver undersøgelse er det afgørende både at vælge en metode, der er velegnet til forskningsspørgsmålet, og at reflektere over, hvilke indsigter og konklusioner den valgte metode kan føre til. Metoder i statskundskab har siden sin første udgivelse i 2010 været et centralt fundament for statskundskabsstuderende og andre studerende. Den fjerde udgave er en opdateret og grundigt revideret version, skrevet af førende eksperter og forskere. Bogen præsenterer og gennemgår de mest centrale metoder inden for statskundskab: Planlægning og motivation af undersøgelser Indsamling og analyse af kvantitative data Indsamling og analyse af kvalitative data Kombination af metoder og formidling De forskellige metoder præsenteres med henvisning til konkrete studier og eksempler, hvor de er blevet anvendt. Derudover diskuterer bogen, hvilke indsigter de forskellige metoder kan føre til, og hvordan man bedst formidler sine resultater.

How can we live well with tech, without it becoming our master? These days, the heady promises of Silicon Valley seem suspect: the internet didn’t bring all of humanity together; neither did smartphones or social media. We have long since stopped associating tech with utopian visions of global harmony, instead blaming it for distraction, polarization, addictions to porn and gambling, the trivialization of culture, loss of privacy and work-life balance, and fears that automation may push millions out of a job. Advances in artificial intelligence seem poised to bring us to the next technological watershed. It’s a good time to ask how we can learn to live well with tech, and how we might push back against technologies that shape humans in anti-human ways. On this theme: Find out why computers can’t do math and humans can.When parenting from prison, a little tech can make a big difference.Glucose monitoring systems transform life for children with diabetes.Should ChatGPT write sermons and prayers?From scrolls to scrolling, tech has changed the way Jewish people read scriptureWill AI bring the end of the world, or is it already here?An intentional community tries to be intentional about personal technology.Our struggle with technology goes back to the Tower of Babel in Genesis.A farmer praises a simple piece of technology – the rock bar. Also in this issue: A photo essay about children on the frontlines in UkraineA philosopher’s proposal for a gift economyThe winners of the 2024 Rhina Espaillat Poetry AwardInsights from Gerard Manley Hopkins, E. F. Schumacher, Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, Jean-Pierre Dupuy, and Hannah ArendtReviews of Birding to Change the World, The Heaven & Earth Grocery Store, and All Things Are Too Small Plough Quarterly features stories, ideas, and culture for people eager to apply their faith to the challenges we face. Each issue includes in-depth articles, interviews, poetry, book reviews, and art.

Getting Real details the business, design, programming, and marketing principles of 37signals. The book is packed with keep-it-simple insights, contrarian points of view, and unconventional approaches to software design. This is not a technical book or a design tutorial, it's a book of ideas. Anyone working on a web app - including entrepreneurs, designers, programmers, executives, or marketers - will find value and inspiration in this book. 37signals used the Getting Real process to launch five successful web-based applications (Basecamp, Campfire, Backpack, Writeboard, Ta-da List), and Ruby on Rails, an open-source web application framework, in just two years with no outside funding, no debt, and only 7 people (distributed across 7 time zones). Over 500,000 people around the world use these applications to get things done. Now you can find out how they did it and how you can do it too. It's not as hard as you think if you Get Real.

Confronting national, linguistic and disciplinary boundaries, contributors to African Archaeology Without Frontiers argue against artificial limits and divisions created through the study of `ages’ that in reality overlap and cannot and should not be understood in isolation. Papers are drawn from the proceedings of the landmark 14th PanAfrican Archaeological Association Congress held in Johannesburg in 2014, nearly seven decades after the conference planned for 1951 was relocated to Algiers following the National Party’s rise to power in South Africa. Contributions by keynote speakers Chapurukha Kusimba and AkinOgundiran encourage African archaeologists to practise an archaeology that collaborates across many related fields of study to enrich our understanding of the past. The nine papers cover a broad geographical sweep by incorporating material on ongoing projects throughout the continent, including South Africa, Botswana, Cameroon, Togo, Tanzania, Kenya and Nigeria. Thematically, the papers included in the volume address issues of identity and interaction, and the need to balance cultural heritage management and sustainable development derived from a continent racked by social inequalities and crippling poverty. Edited by three leading archaeologists, the collection covers many aspects of African archaeology, and a range of periods from the earliest hominins to the historical period.

The Son of David in Matthew's Gospel in the Light of the Solomon as Exorcist Tradition

The Son of David in Matthew's Gospel in the Light of the Solomon as Exorcist Tradition

Jiri Dvoracek

Mohr Siebeck
2016
nidottu
In this study, Jirí Dvorácek focuses on the usage of the "Son of David" title in Matthew's Gospel. He assumes that Matthew's image of the healing Son of David can be explained from the existing Jewish concepts - in particular in the light of the Solomon as exorcist tradition. In the first part, he examines important texts concerning the Son of David. The author argues that in the first century C.E. the designation "Son of David" could have referred not only to the triumphant royal Davidic Messiah - but within an exorcistic and healing context, it could have referred also to Solomon, himself a great exorcist and healer. In the second part, Jirí Dvorácek demonstrates in his exegesis of Matthean texts how Matthew used the royal messianic and the Solomon as exorcist tradition in order to create the image of the Son of David as a merciful, messianic, healing king, who in his wisdom, healings and exorcisms even surpasses David's son Solomon.

The Latinx Files

The Latinx Files

Matthew David Goodwin; Frederick Luis Aldama

Rutgers University Press
2021
nidottu
In The Latinx Files, Matthew David Goodwin traces how Latinx science fiction writers are reclaiming the space alien from its xenophobic legacy in the science fiction genre. The book argues that the space alien is a vital Latinx figure preserving Latinx cultures by activating the myriad possible constructions of the space alien to represent race and migration in the popular imagination. The works discussed in this book, including those of H.G. Wells, Gloria Anzaldúa, Junot Diaz, André M. Carrington, and many others, often explicitly reject the derogatory correlation of the space alien and Latinxs, while at other times, they contain space aliens that function as a source of either enlightenment or horror for Latinx communities. Throughout this nuanced analysis, The Latinx Files demonstrates how the character of the space alien has been significant to Latinx communities and has great potential for future writers and artists.

More and more we are told to pursue the life we want, but what about the life God wants you to live? When our desires and God's will don't match up, we often choose to move God from the center of our life to just being an "important part" of it.This book will challenge you to think differently about what it means to have faith. It asks you to set yourself aside, make God your true focus, and trust God to truly be God in your life.The proceeds from this book are being donated to support the Healing and Reconciliation work being done with First Nations People through The Kenora Fellowship Centre (Anamiewigummig) and Winnipeg Inner City Missions (Anishanabe).

The God-within (your real identity) awaits your recognition, and this immutable force is 100% ready to serve you, right now. You've been told to create your reality, right? But how do you do that? I mean, how do you triumph in the face of adversity everywhere you look? How do you ascend past your fears, doubts, and disbelief-especially in yourself? The truth is... if you haven't yet discovered health, happiness, romance, and a luxurious lifestyle, you've missed something about life. What if your worries about the world or future of humanity seem to stand in the way of your ability to LIVE the dreams inside of YOU? Whatever it is, the solution is inside of you. Not in some far away distant reality. It's here, now. ASK UNTIL IT IS GIVEN will deliver unfamiliar and fresh ideas in a way you've never considered before, urging you to explore them and redeem your "pro card" in Law of Attraction. From the first chapter, you'll understand the cause of virtually all "poverty" (a mindset manifesting as poor health, lack of finances, and unhappy relationships). Here's just some of what you'll discover in this groundbreaking book: * The number one cause of all poverty in your life, how we inherit it and how to transcend it; * One action you can do each day that accelerates your ability to receive your desires and allow prosperity into your life; * Learn how reverse affirmations can connect with your sub-conscious mind and go beyond your limiting beliefs; * Discover the difference between real power, force and anger so you can stop fighting against yourself; * How to return to your true and natural state of being - Innocence; * The best way to revoke your propensity towards less-than thinking; as in, "I'm less-than others became (fill in the blank). * How symbols unconsciously influence us and how to consciously choose empowering symbols instead; Tools and hacks to increase your power centers; * How to SUPERCHARGE your allowing; * Why asking often involves having to face a fear that you are suppressing; * How the author manifested $6.1 million dollars using one law of attraction secret; * How guilt (the opposite of love) is the #1 thing blocking you, suppressing your vibration and how removing it with this unique method can bring you 10 times the power to manifest your desires; * Why a lack of forgiveness-holding a grudge-and guilt are the two things that are poison in your consciousness and are keeping you stuck at some level in your circumstances; * Whenever you feel shame, you will repeat the action if you don't remove this right away; * Discover the two pathways to all disease; The greatest wealth secret on earth that delivers guaranteed results; * How to attract the most influential people to you like a magnetic impulse drawing them to discover you; * The way to sow honor into your environment and create waves of favor that head back towards you; How to hijack consciousness; * Why someone in trouble is your doorway out of trouble; * How to escape problem consciousness and enter a state of being the solution; * And so much more If you're ready to transform your life, click the BUY NOW button and say good-bye to your old life and step into manifesting all of your desires

Logos and Liberation

Logos and Liberation

Jonathan Cobb; Matthew David Segall

pokkari
The history of civilization has been one of empire, slavery, power, and exploitation. The drive to dominate, to control and manage others, to divide the world into masters and servants, to flatten difference and bend the world to our will, has been a driving force of history. This drive for domination manifests in patriarchy, white supremacy, capitalism, fascism, and technocracy. This grasping for control is the original sin, a false Logos that has obscured the true Logos of creation. In our modern secular world, the concept of Logos has largely been forgotten, yet the false Logos of control remains as strong as ever and threatens to undo civilization itself. Through a path of kenosis, of self-emptying, we can rediscover the true Logos and transform our relationship with the world.

Black Networks Matter

Black Networks Matter

Matthew David Simonson; Ray Block Jr; James N. Druckman; Katherine Ognyanova; David M. J. Lazer

Cambridge University Press
2024
pokkari
Scholars have long recognized that interpersonal networks play a role in mobilizing social movements. Yet, many questions remain. This Element addresses these questions by theorizing about three dimensions of ties: emotionally strong or weak, movement insider or outsider, and ingroup or cross-cleavage. The survey data on the 2020 Black Lives Matter protests show that weak and cross-cleavage ties among outsiders enabled the movement to evolve from a small provocation into a massive national mobilization. In particular, the authors find that Black people mobilized one another through social media and spurred their non-Black friends to protest by sharing their personal encounters with racism. These results depart from the established literature regarding the civil rights movement that emphasizes strong, movement-internal, and racially homogenous ties. The networks that mobilize appear to have changed in the social media era. This title is also available as Open Access on Cambridge Core.
