The Eldest Brother and New Testament Christology - Harald Aarbakke - Bog - Peter Lang Publishing Inc - Plusbog.dk

The Eldest Brother and New Testament Christology - Harald Aarbakke - Bog - Peter Lang Publishing Inc - Plusbog.dk

The Eldest Brother and New Testament Christology explores the origin of cultural representations of Jesus as an eldest brother. Through ethnographic surveys, author Harald Aarbakke shows that the role of the eldest brother in different African societies is often accompanied by additional roles, among them mediator, protector, and leader. Aarbakke also searches for an exegetical basis for this understanding of Jesus, and argues that an eldest brother Christology can be substantiated by the cultural and literary context of certain New Testament texts (Matthew 25:31–46 and 28:10, Mark 3:31–35, John 20:17, Romans 8:28–30, Colossians 1:15–20, and Hebrews 2:10–18).

London Patidars - Harald Tambs Lyche - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

London Patidars - Harald Tambs Lyche - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

First Published in 1980, London Patidars presents the case study of the Patidars, a landowning caste from the Indian state of Gujarat, in London. Patidars being the landowning caste has taken over much of the ideology of the merchant castes. This ‘merchant ideal’ is a central part of their self-image. It is an incitement to initiative in business and to some extent their actual economic behaviour does reflect the ideal. But the cases studied do not all conform to this ideal, and they pose questions: How does this particular type of ethnic boundary relate to the opportunities of the individual Patidar? Why and how is this boundary maintained? Harald Tambs-Lyche concludes that the form given to the ethnic boundary is advantageous to many Patidars but not to all in the same degree. This raises problems which potentially could change the present pattern. Other potential problems relate to their relationship with the English. As successful merchants they risk becoming objects of envy like, formerly, the Jewish community. This book is a must read for scholars of ethnic and race relations and sociology.

Image-Making-India - Paolo Silvio Harald Favero - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Image-Making-India - Paolo Silvio Harald Favero - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Image-Making-India explores the evolving meaning of images in a digital landscape from the vantage point of contemporary India. Building upon long-term ethnographic research among image-makers in Delhi, Mumbai and other Indian cities, the author interrogates the dialogue between visual culture, technology and changing notions of political participation. The book explores selected artistic experiences in documentary and fiction film, photography, contemporary art and digital curation that have in common a desire to engage with images as tools for social intervention. These experiences reveal images’ capacity not only to narrate and represent but also to perform, do and affect. Particular attention is devoted to the ''digital'', a critical landscape that offers an opportunity to re-examine the significance of images and visual culture in a rapidly changing India. This volume will be of particular interest to scholars of visual and digital anthropology and cultures as well as South Asian studies.

Development Aid to Nepal - Harald O. Skarr - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Development Aid to Nepal - Harald O. Skarr - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

An ongoing challenge for Western aid projects in the Third World is that all too often results do not meet expectations. Determined to address this issue at the outset before committing greater sums to its aid to Nepal, in 1996 the Norwegian Foreign Ministry commissioned an extensive analysis of development needs and concrete aid achievements for that country. Now substantially reworked and expanded with data not previously available to international scholars, this study of the energy, health and education sectors in Nepal - as well as the situation there of democracy and human rights - will be of especial interest to researchers and NGOs working in the area.

Classical Mechanics And Relativity - Harald J W Muller Kirsten - Bog - World Scientific Publishing Co Pte Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Classical Mechanics And Relativity - Harald J W Muller Kirsten - Bog - World Scientific Publishing Co Pte Ltd - Plusbog.dk

This text provides a pedagogical tour through mechanics from Newton to Einstein with detailed explanations and a large number of worked examples. From the very beginning relativity is kept in mind, along with its relation to concepts of basic mechanics, such as inertia, escape velocity, Newton''s potential, Kepler motion and curvature. The Lagrange and Hamilton formalisms are treated in detail, and extensive applications to central forces and rigid bodies are presented. After consideration of the motivation of relativity, the essential tensor calculus is developed, and thereafter Einstein''s equation is solved for special cases with explicit presentation of calculational steps. The combined treatment of classical mechanics and relativity thus enables the reader to see the connection between Newton''s gravitational potential, Kepler motion and Einstein''s corrections, as well as diverse aspects of mechanics. The text addresses students and others pursuing a course in classical mechanics, as well as those interested in a detailed course on relativity.

Introduction To Quantum Mechanics: Schrodinger Equation And Path Integral - Harald J W Muller Kirsten - Bog - World Scientific Publishing Co Pte Ltd -

Introduction To Quantum Mechanics: Schrodinger Equation And Path Integral - Harald J W Muller Kirsten - Bog - World Scientific Publishing Co Pte Ltd -

After a consideration of basic quantum mechanics, this introduction aims at a side by side treatment of fundamental applications of the Schrödinger equation on the one hand and the applications of the path integral on the other. Different from traditional texts and using a systematic perturbation method, the solution of Schrödinger equations includes also those with anharmonic oscillator potentials, periodic potentials, screened Coulomb potentials and a typical singular potential, as well as the investigation of the large order behavior of the perturbation series. On the path integral side, after introduction of the basic ideas, the expansion around classical configurations in Euclidean time, such as instantons, is considered, and the method is applied in particular to anharmonic oscillator and periodic potentials. Numerous other aspects are treated on the way, thus providing the reader an instructive overview over diverse quantum mechanical phenomena, e.g. many other potentials, Green''s functions, comparison with WKB, calculation of lifetimes and sojourn times, derivation of generating functions, the Coulomb problem in various coordinates, etc. All calculations are given in detail, so that the reader can follow every step.

Financial Capital in the 21st Century - Achim Szepanski - Bog - Springer Nature Switzerland AG - Plusbog.dk

Financial Capital in the 21st Century - Achim Szepanski - Bog - Springer Nature Switzerland AG - Plusbog.dk

The book''s central theme is to develop a new theory of speculative capital related to other forms of capital, the world market, and the state. Unlike most Marxist and heterodox theories, the book distinguishes credit and fictitious capital from speculative capital to show its hegemony today in the capital markets. Speculative capital structures and also controls the so-called "real capital." The method is Marxist while also incorporating material from contemporary Marxist and heterodox authors like John Milios, Robert Meister, Tony Norfeld, Li Puma, Harald Strauß, Michael Heinrich, Suhail Malik, Bichler/Nitzan and Ellie Ayache. Offering a comprehensive study of the logic and mode of existence of capital in the 21 st century, the book will be of interest to academics and students of monetary and financial economics alongside political economy.

In Search of Ali ibn Abi Talib's Codex: History and Traditions of the Earliest Copy of the Qur'an (Foreword by James Piscatori) - Seyfeddin Kara - Bog

In Search of Ali ibn Abi Talib's Codex: History and Traditions of the Earliest Copy of the Qur'an (Foreword by James Piscatori) - Seyfeddin Kara - Bog

The history of the text of the Qur''an has been a longstanding subject of interest within the field of Islamic Studies, but the debate has so far been focused on the Sunni traditions about the codices of Caliphs Abu Bakr and ''Uthman b. ''Affan. Little to no attention has been given to the traditions on ''Ali b. Abi Talib''s collection of the Qur''an. This book examines both Shi''i and Sunni traditions on the issue, aiming to date them back to the earliest possible date and, if possible, verify their authenticity. To achieve this, the traditions are examined using Harald Motzki''s isnad-cum-matn method, which is recognised as an efficient tool in dating the early Islamic traditions and involves analysis of both matn (text) and isnad (chain of trans-mission) with an emphasis on finding a correlation between the two.
