Food and Governmentality in the Green City: The Case of German Food Policy Councils
(2023-03-16)
As an essential urban matter, food has always been highly relevant in issues of social and environmental justice. Current debates around food call for a better understanding of the relationship between global and local food production and social and environmental justice. Specifically, discussions on urban greening concepts are considering whether and how social justice and sustainability goals can be achieved. This has become a pressing issue due to a growing awareness of negative effects and social imbalances in ...

Prediction Model Based on DoE and FTIR Data to Control Fast Setting and Early Shrinkage of Alkaline-Activated Slag/Silica Fume Blended Cementitious Material
(2023-05-31)
This study aims to develop a material-saving performance prediction model for fast-hardening alkali-activated slag/silica fume blended pastes. The hydration process in the early stage and the microstructural properties after 24 h were analyzed using design of experiments (DoE). The experimental results show that the curing time and the FTIR wavenumber of the Si-O-T (T = Al, Si) bond in the band range of 900–1000 cm−¹ after 24 h can be predicted accurately. In detailed investigations, low wavenumbers from FTIR analysis ...

Green in grey: ecosystem services and disservices perceptions from small-scale green infrastructure along a rural-urban gradient in Bengaluru, India
(2023-06-25)
Ecosystem services provided by green infrastructure are often discussed for their potential to address the societal challenges of urbanization. However, green infrastructure, particularly small-scale types (e.g. trees), is vulnerable to loss through urbanization and is often passed over during scientific investigations. Studies on the perceptions of ecosystem services and disservices (hereafter called ecosystem (dis)services) dynamics along the ruralurban gradient are particularly rare in the literature. Therefore, ...

Experimental quantification of site-specific efficiency of Interatomic Coulombic Decay after inner shell ionization
(2023-03-17)
Interatomic Coulombic Decay (ICD) and related interatomic and intermolecular autoionization mechanisms are ubiquitous decay processes of excited atoms and molecules in an environment. It is commonly accepted that the efficiency of ICD of an ionized atom in a cluster increases with an increasing number of nearest neighbors. Here, we present a method for experimental validation of this assumption by a site-specific and quantitative comparison of ICD and its main competitor, Auger decay, in core-level ionized Kr clusters. ...

Polycentric Water Governance in Spain
(Transcript, 2023)
Increasing irrigation efficiency has been high on the political agenda in Spain for many years. However, the overarching aim to reduce agricultural water consumption has not been met so far. Nora Schütze investigates processes of coordination between the water and agricultural sector in three Spanish river basins in the context of the EU Water Framework Directive implementation. From the perspective of polycentric governance, she identifies multiple mechanisms which illustrate how and why actors interact in certain ...

Agentic and communal narcissism in predicting different types of lies in romantic relationships
(2023-07-03)
Several studies have investigated a potential positive association between agentic narcissism and general dishonesty, revealing both supportive and contradicting evidence. Few have focused on dishonesty within romantic relationships, a phenomenon that occurs in almost all partnerships. With the present research, we first aimed to extend existing literature on narcissism by including its two complementary facets (i.e., agentic and communal narcissism). Second, we aimed to improve the understanding of narcissists’ lying ...

Anarchitext. Andreas Neumeisters Poetik und sein erzähltes Bauen in Könnte Köln sein
(Neofelis, 2023)
Obwohl der Autor und Künstler Andreas Neumeister mit zu den bekanntesten deutschen Popliterat*innen zählt, setzt sich dieser Band erstmals umfassend wissenschaftlich mit seinen collagenartigen Texten auseinander. Unter dem ‚Deckmantel‘ des Romans verschmelzen bei Neumeister zahlreiche mediale Versatzstücke zu einem dichten Abbild gesellschaftlicher Gegenwart und stellen die politische Dimension alltäglicher und/oder urbaner Kulissen aus. Seine Texte arbeiten dabei mit popästhetischen Methoden – wie Montagen, ...

The UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities : Multi-Level Comparative Study of Legal and Political Implementation in Germany, Austria and Denmark
(Nomos, 2023)
The Convention of the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD) is a document which is centred in a process of legal, societal and political change that takes place in nearly all states of the world. While the formal success of now 186 ratifications is measurable, it is quite difficult to measure and analyse the impact of the CRPD on laws, politics and on the living conditions of persons with disabilities in the societies. Law in books is not necessary law in action, and law in action is not necessarily changing ...

Wenn Figuren Kunst betrachten
(kopaed, 2022)
Diese Arbeit beschäftigt sich mit Verweisen auf bildkünstlerische Arbeiten in literarischen Texten und daran anschließend mit ihrem didaktischen Potenzial. Zur Bearbeitung derartiger Referenzverfahren wird der Begriff der ›Bildreferenz‹ verwendet. Es hätte auch der Begriff ›Kunstreferenz‹ sein können, der gegenüber der Bildreferenz einen deutlichen Wechsel in der ästhetischen Disziplin und ihrer spezifischen Materialität markiert. Der Begriff der ›Bildreferenz‹ legt hingegen einen deutlichen Fokus auf die Visualität ...

Sustainability performance measurement in risk and uncertainty management: An analysis of base of the pyramid supply chain literature
(2022-10-10)
Risk management in the base of the pyramid (BoP) environment is needed to ensure that firms performance objectives are met. Accordingly, integrating sustainability performance measurement in the supply chain risk management would offer interesting avenues for managing risks in BoP supply chain. Therefore, the paper conceptualizes an intersection between supply chain risk/uncertainty management and sustainable performance measurement. This intersection is then tested by a literature review of 164 BoP SC articles between ...
