The contributors to this international volume take up questions about a phenomenology of time that begins with and attunes to gender issues. Themes such as feminist conceptions of time, change and becoming, the body and identity, memory and modes of experience, and the relevance of time as a moral and political question, shape Time in Feminist Phenomenology and allow readers to explore connections between feminist philosophy, phenomenology, and time. With its insistence on the importance of gender experience to the experience of time, this volume is a welcome opening to new and critical thinking about being, knowledge, aesthetics, and ethics.

Der Begriff der Orientierung ist sowohl in politischen Debatten als auch in philosophischen und ethischen Kontexten allgegenwärtig. Auch von der Friedensdenkschrift der EKD wird Orientierung zu aktuellen Fragen von Gewalt, Krieg und Frieden eingefordert; diese bisweilen auch enttäuscht. Dabei lässt sich die ethische Grundfrage „Was soll ich tun?“, die sich auch für die Friedensethik stellt, zweifelsohne als eine Frage nach Handlungsorientierung verstehen. Aber lässt sich allein schon durch eine ethische Normenreflexion Orientierungswissen generieren? Die Antwort auf diese Frage ist essenziell, hat sie doch unmittelbare Auswirkungen auf die konkrete Anwendbarkeit der Friedensdenkschrift auf aktuelle Konflikte sowie auf die Funktion der Kirche als gesellschaftliches Korrektiv bzw., theologisch formuliert, auf die Wahrnehmung des politischen Wächteramtes der Kirche.

Prenatal diagnosis, especially noninvasive prenatal testing (NIPT), has changed the experience of pregnancy, prenatal care and responsibilities in Israel and Germany in different ways. These differences reflect the countries' historical legacies, medico-legal policies, normative and cultural identities. Building on this observation, the contributors of this book present conversations between leading scholars from Israel and Germany based on an empirical bioethical perspective, analyses about the reshaping of 'life' by biomedicine, and philosophical reflections on socio-cultural claims and epistemic horizons of responsibilities. Practices and discussions of reproductive medicine transform the concepts of responsibility and irresponsibility.
