Christian Braun – författare

Transitional Justice Theories is the first volume to approach the politically sensitive subject of post-conflict or post-authoritarian justice from a theoretical perspective. It combines contributions from distinguished scholars and practitioners as well as from emerging academics from different disciplines and provides an overview of conceptual approaches to the field. The volume seeks to refine our understanding of transitional justice by exploring often unarticulated assumptions that guide discourse and practice. To this end, it offers a wide selection of approaches from various theoretical traditions ranging from normative theory to critical theory. In their individual chapters, the authors explore the concept of transitional justice itself and its foundations, such as reconciliation, memory, and truth, as well as intersections, such as reparations, peace building, and norm compliance.This book will be of particular interest for scholars and students of law, peace and conflict studies, and human rights studies. Even though highly theoretical, the chapters provide an easy read for a wide audience including readers not familiar with theoretical investigations.

For the first time, this study describes Old High German using the comprehensive approach of text linguistics. It starts by examining the linguistic characteristics of Old High German in its contextual frameworks from a sociopragmatic perspective. It then proceeds to a text grammatical analysis of selected texts. Combining these two approaches yields new insights.

The German Linguistic Studies Series is a comprehensive and outstanding forum in its field. It has borne the name of its subject in its title since the foundation of the series in the eighth decade of the last century.The series is comprehensive in the broad spectrum of topics covered (language levels, varieties, communication forms, epochs) in the range of research perspectives (theoretical and empirical studies, fundamental research and applications, interdisciplinarity with psychology, the social sciences etc.) and methodologies (the sole criterion is quality), in the rhythm of research (trends are perceived and also set, achievements are secured) and in the forms of presentation (monographs, textbooks, collected volumes, dictionaries).Professorial theses, outstanding doctoral theses, pioneering research findings from wider contexts, but also the surprising ‛stroke of genius’ set the standards for inclusion in the series.

The series publishes studies and sources on the history of the German language and literature from the beginnings of the tradition in the 8th century to more recent linguistic history. It publishes philologically high-quality linguistic and literary studies and editions, as well as works that deal with aspects of linguistics and literary studies in equal measure. Thematically, the whole range of diachronic and synchronic issues is welcome: Variations and varieties, language change, norm and usage, language criticism, language contact, empiricism and theory, production and reception, manuscripts and prints. Publication formats include monographs as well as edited volumes. The preferred language of publication is German. The LHG is edited by three members of the Gesellschaft für germanistische Sprachgeschichte (GGSG): - Stephan Müller, Professor of Older German Language and Literature at the University of Vienna - Claudia Wich-Reif, Professor of the History of the German Language and Linguistic Variation at the Rheinische Friedrich-Wilhelms-Universität Bonn - Arne Ziegler, Professor of German Language with special emphasis on Historical Linguistics and Variety Linguistics at the Karl-Franzens University of Graz Co-founder and co-editor from 2016-2019 was Jörg Riecke, Professor of German Linguistics with a special focus on language history at Ruprecht-Karls-Universität Heidelberg (+2019)

Christian Braun analysiert die Wirkung von Mechanismen der Vergangenheitsaufarbeitung auf das Zusammenleben der ethnischen Bevölkerungsgruppen in gespaltenen Gesellschaften.

Ausblicke 1 innehåller sex kapitel som är uppbyggda kring ett tema för att hjälpa eleverna att navigera i vardagen. I Ausblicke 1 får vi följa svenska Klara och hennes vänner i München som en röd tråd genom de olika kapitlen. I introt till respektive kapitel finns en översikt över det som eleverna ska lära sig i kapitlet. Varje kapitel är indelat i en A-, B-, C- och D-del. A-, B- och C-texterna är tänkta att läsas intensivt och följs av en riklig mängd övningar. D-texterna är faktatexter där eleverna kommer att upptäcka att de kan läsa tyska och förstå mycket trots att de är nybörjare. I Ausblicke finns många hörövningar som både fokuserar på elevernas förförståelse i kapitlens intron och befäster de språkliga kunskaperna efter respektive text. För att bygga upp språket förklaras ny grammatik där det behövs. Längst bak i boken finns en grammatikdel där eleverna kan fördjupa sina kunskaper. Varje kapitel innehåller dessutom små läsövningar och informationstexter. Elevfacit finns inlagt längst bak i boken för att möjliggöra självstudier. I slutet av böckerna finns även fras- och ordförråd, styckeordlistor och en tysk-svensk/svensk-tysk ordlista. Elevljud samt digitala övningar finns på Övningsmästaren.
