Creative Social Engineering? Reform Initiatives in Vocational Education and Professional Orientation (ca. 1880-1930)

Creative Social Engineering? Reform Initiatives in Vocational Education and Professional Orientation (ca. 1880-1930)

Despite obvious connections between the industrial sector and that of technical-vocational schooling and training (cf. Blankertz, 1969) the historical importance of industry-related entrepreneurship for education in the whole of Europe remains underappreciated. In social-cultural and educational historiography alike States and/or Churches, rather than the industry and associated networks, tend to be connected to attempts at societal reform (see, e.g. de Swaan, 1988).

Du rapport Werner au rapport Delors

Economic and Monetary Union is currently at a crossroads, and the crisis it is facing will have major consequences both for the future of European integration and for Europe’s role in the world. In a bid to shed new light on the development of Europe’s model of economic and monetary integration, the CVCE is using its research project on the achievements of Pierre Werner to explore the origins and development of the euro as prefigured in the Werner Report and to analyse the Werner Report in the context of the current challenges facing Economic and Monetary Union.

Medien und Buddhismus in Viktor Pelevins Roman «Buddhas kleiner Finger» (Čapaev i Pustota): Gefangenschaft und Befreiung

Medien und Buddhismus in Viktor Pelevins Roman «Buddhas kleiner Finger» (Čapaev i Pustota): Gefangenschaft und Befreiung

The work deals with Viktor Pelevin's novel Čapaev i Pustota and focuses on the author's literary processes that characterize his writing style. On the content level of the novel, the effects of the media that make consciousness sick are shown. In the aesthetic form of the novel, on the other hand, Buddhist strategies are implemented that can be understood as a healing countermeasure. In terms of method, the work is initially inherent in the text, drawing on narratology based on communication theory.
