A generally acknowledged characteristic of modern life, namely the temporalization of experience, inextricable from our intensified experience of contingency and difference, has until now remained largely outside psychology’s purview. Wherever questions about the development, structure, and function of the concept of time have been posed – for example by Piaget and other founders of genetic structuralism – they have been concerned predominantly with concepts of "physical", chronometrical time, and related concepts (e.g., "velocity"). All the contributions to the present volume attempt to close this gap. A larger number are especially interested in the narration of stories. Overviews of the relevant literature, as well as empirical case studies, appear alongside theoretical and methodological reflections. Most contributions refer to specifically historical phenomena and meaning-constructions. Some touch on the subjects of biographical memory and biographical constructions of reality. Of all the various affinities between the contributions collected here, the most important is their consistent attention to issues of the constitution and representation of temporal experience.

The relationship between historical studies and psychoanalysis remains an open debate that is full of tension, in both a positive and a negative sense. In particular, the following question has not been answered satisfactorily: what distinguishes a psychoanalytically oriented study of historical realities from a historical psychoanalysis? Skepticism and fear of collaboration dominate on both sides. Initiating a productive dialogue between historical studies and psychoanalysis seems to be plagued by ignorance and, at times, a sense of helplessness. Interdisciplinary collaborations are rare. Empirical research, formulation of theory, and the development of methods are essentially carried out within the conventional disciplinary boundaries. This volume undertakes to overcome these limitations by combining psychoanalytical and historical perspectives and thus exploring the underlying “unconscious” dimensions and by informing academic and nonacademic forms of historical memory. Moreover, it puts special emphasis on transgenerational forms of remembrance, on the notion of trauma as a key concept in this field, and on case studies that point the way to further research.

Ob in Tourismus, internationalem Management, Entwicklungszusammenarbeit oder Wissenschaft im Zeitalter der Globalisierung ist interkulturelle Kompetenz eine Schlüsselqualifikation. Das Handbuch verschafft einen systematischen Überblick. Es definiert Grundbegriffe wie Differenz, Identität, Verstehen, Konflikt und erörtert die wichtigsten Theorien aus Linguistik, Soziologie, Psychologie und anderen Disziplinen. Im Mittelpunkt stehen viel diskutierte Themen, darunter Migration, Medien, Rassismus. Unverzichtbar für Wissenschaft und Studium.

Der erste Band "Grundlagen und Schlüsselbegriffe" thematisiert die wesentlichen Gesichtspunkte wie Erfahrung, Sprache, Handlung, Identität, Geschichte und Zeit und setzt sie der "gelebten" Kultur und ihren lebenspraktischen Auswirkungen gegenüber.

Der Band erörtert umfassend Theorien, Traditionen und Innovationen im Feld Forschenden Lernens (FL). Die Beispiele reichen von der Physik über die Psychiatrie bis hin zur Geschichtswissenschaft, Soziologie oder Psychologie – und vielen anderen Disziplinen sowie interdisziplinären Projekten – und geben Einblicke in originelle, exzellente Lehr-Lernformate sowie konkrete Veranstaltungen, die über wettbewerbliche Ausschreibungen gefördert und implementiert werden. Sie dokumentieren die faszinierende Vielfalt eines höchst dynamischen Feldes.
