Inhalt: This volume provides new insights in the concept of shari'a in the West, and sets out a framework of how shari'a in the West can be studied. The premise of this volume is that one needs to focus on the question 'What do Muslims do in terms of shari'a?' rather than 'What is shari'a?'. This perspective shows that the practice of Sharia is restricted to a limited set of rules that mainly relate to religious rituals, family law and social interaction. The framework of this volume then continues to explore two more interactions: the Western responses to these practices of shari'a and, in turn, the Muslim legal reaction to these responses

Inhalt: The vast and ancient topic of kingship in India has mostly been studied from the perspectives of rulers and other elites. But what constitutes sovereignty viewed from "below"? This book — ethnographic and comparative in its essence — deals with indigenous conceptualizations of sovereignty taking as its starting point a local proverb that connects the ritual (Dasara) of the king with festivals performed by his "tribal" subjects. The first part of the book initially introduces some pan-Indian ideas of kingship and proceeds to discuss indigenous notions of sovereignty as represented in rituals and myths in the region concerned (highland Odisha). The second part is devoted to the investigation of the proverbial performances. Mainly based on historical sources first the Dasara festival of the king is discussed, subsequently the indigenous rituals are described and analyzed, which the author ethnographically documented around the turn of the millennium. Ultimately, the proverb and the rituals constitute the idea of a sacrificial polity in which rulers and ruled share sovereignty in the sense that they are co-responsible for the flow of life

Inhalt: This book explores how cities are shaped by the lived experiences of inhabitants and examines the ways they develop strategies to cope with daily and unexpected challenges. It argues that migration, livelihood, and public health challenges result from inadequacies in the hard city—urban assets, such as land, infrastructure, and housing, and asserts that these challenges and escalating vulnerabilities are best negotiated using the soft city—social capital and community networks. In so doing, the authors criticise a singular knowledge system and argue for a granular, nuanced understanding of cities—of the interrelations between people in places, everyday urbanisms, social relationships, cultural practices, and histories. The volume presents perspectives from the Global South and the Global North and engages with city-specific cases from Africa, India, and Europe for a deeper understanding of resilience. Part of the Urban Futures series, it will be of great interest to students and researchers of urban studies, urban planning, urban management, architecture, urban sociology, urban design, ecology, conservation, and urban sustainability. It will also be useful for urbanists, architects, urban sociologists, city and town planners, policy makers, and those interested in a deeper understanding of the contemporary and future city.

Inhalt: How are artificial intelligence (AI) and the strong claims made by their philosophical representatives to be understood and evaluated from a Kantian perspective? Conversely, what can we learn from AI and its functions about Kantian philosophy's claims to validity? This volume focuses on various aspects, such as the self, the spirit, self-consciousness, ethics, law, and aesthetics to answer these questions.

Inhalt: Wie sind aus Kantischer Perspektive Künstliche Intelligenz (KI) und die starken Ansprüche ihrer philosophischen Vertreter zu begreifen bzw. zu bewerten? Was kann umgekehrt aus KI und ihrer Funktionsweise über die Geltungsansprüche der Kantischen Philosophie gelernt werden? Zur Beantwortung dieser Fragen werden verschiedene Aspekte wie z.B. Ich, Geist, Selbstbewusstsein, Ethik, Recht, Ästhetik in den Fokus genommen.

Serie: Judaism and Jewish life

Inhalt: In Cultures in Collision and Conversation, David Berger addresses three broad themes in Jewish intellectual history: Jewish approaches to cultures external to Judaism and the controversies triggered by this issue in medieval and modern times, the impact of Christian challenges and differing philosophical orientations on Jewish interpretation of the Bible, and Messianic visions, movements, and debates from antiquity to the present. These essays include a monograph-length study of Jewish attitudes toward general culture in medieval and early modern times, analyses of the thought of Maimonides and Nahmanides, an assessment of the reactions to the most recent messianic movement in Jewish history, and reflections on the value of the academic study of Judaism. --From publisher's description.

Inhalt: Across the world, advances are being made in the development of connected and automated mobility. At first it was expected that the technology would make a positive contribution to many traffic-related problems: from increasing road safety and reducing greenhouse gas emissions to freeing up space and making streets more appealing as public spaces. However, these effects are by no means guaranteed - by contrast: it is becoming increasingly clear that the introduction of this technology must be well managed if the anticipated benefits are to be achieved. Based on the results of the four-year research project AVENUE21 at the TU Wien, this volume brings together the findings of international authors. Divided into four topic areas - mobility and transport, public space, spatial development and governance - various perspectives as well as example applications and planning solutions related to connected and automated mobility are described in a global context. The result that emerges is an overview of international approaches to how automated driving systems can be introduced in a targeted manner in the interests of sustainable mobility and settlement development while also taking into account current (local) challenges. The volume thus complements previous studies by asking not what impacts connected and automated vehicles will have, but rather for what purpose, where and in what form connected and automated mobility is actually needed. About the editors: The research on which this book is based was conducted by an interdisciplinary team at the Faculty of Architecture and Spatial Planning at the TU Wien together with international experts. The research project AVENUE21 was funded as Ladenburg Kolleg by the Daimler and Benz Foundation.
