In "Zur Psychologie des Geldes" untersucht Georg Simmel die vielschichtige Rolle des Geldes im sozialen und individuellen Leben. Das Werk gehört zu den einflussreichsten Schriften der frühen Soziologie und entfaltet auf brillante Weise, wie Geld soziale Beziehungen, Werte und Identität prägt. Mit philosophischer Tiefe und soziologischer Schärfe analysiert Simmel, wie Geld als abstraktes Tauschmittel Denk- und Handlungsmuster formt, Freiheit und Abhängigkeit zugleich schafft und den modernen Menschen in seiner Existenz beeinflusst.

Giulia Zollino ha vissuto questa educazione - o, sarebbe meglio dire, diseducazione - sulla propria pelle. Poi, però, ha incontrato il femminismo. È successo a Bologna, durante gli anni burrascosi dell'università, tra gruppi di discussione, letture e orgasmi. Ed è stato amore a prima vista. Questo incontro ha segnato uno spartiacque tra un prima e un dopo, da qui è partito il suo percorso di ribellione e riscoperta di sé. Il femminismo le ha insegnato a distruggere i miti nocivi, come quello della bellezza, permettendole di accettare e riappropriarsi del suo corpo.

Hat deine Ur-Ur-Uroma eigentlich schon an Sex gedacht? Klar, denn sonst wärst du heute wahrscheinlich nicht hier! Sicher hat sie anders geflirtet als die heutige Jugend. Aber die Menschen waren früher längst nicht so prüde, wie wir manchmal denken. Liebe, Sex und nackte Körper gab es schon immer. Aber wie darüber gesprochen, gemalt und geurteilt wurde, das verändert sich im Lauf der Geschichte immer wieder. Die Ethnologin Elin Hägg nimmt uns mit auf eine erstaunliche Reise durch die (abendländische) Geschichte der Ideen, Religionen und Machtverhältnisse – immer in Bezug auf deren Auswirkungen auf das Sexleben.

In Poor Queer Studies, Matt Brim shifts queer studies away from its familiar sites of elite education toward poor and working-class people, places, and pedagogies. Brim shows how queer studies also takes place beyond the halls of flagship institutions: in night school; after a three-hour commute; in overflowing classrooms at no-name colleges; with no research budget; without access to decent food; with kids in tow; in a state of homelessness.

This devastating book illuminates America's gun culture - its manufacturers, dealers, buffs, and propagandists - but also offers concrete solutions to our national epidemic of death by firearm. It begins with an account of a crime that is by now almost commonplace: on December 16, 1988, 16-year-old Nicholas Elliot walked into his Virginia high school with a Cobray M-11/9 and several hundred rounds of ammunition tucked in his backpack. By day's end, he had killed one teacher and severely wounded another.
