В монографии (1-е издание вышло в 2004 г., 2-е в 2007 г., 3-е в 2013 г.) излагаются теоретические основы и история формирования девиантологии – социологии девиантности и социального контроля. Рассматриваются основные формы девиантности – преступность, коррупция, терроризм, наркотизм, пьянство, самоубийства, проституция, сексуальные отклонения, социальное творчество и др., а также теория и основные направления социального контроля над девиантностью. Настоящее издание существенно расширено, обновлены статистические сведения и литература. Книга рассчитана на специалистов – социологов, юристов, конфликтологов, политологов, психологов, а также широкую читательскую аудиторию. Может быть использована в качестве учебного пособия по курсу «Социология девиантности и социального контроля», а также при изучении криминологии, общей социологии, конфликтологии, политологии, психологии.
Auctioneers Who Made Art History
Beschaffungsanalyse, Absatzplanung, Kundenorientierung, Markenpflege – der Kunstmarkt verändert sich so rasant wie nie zuvor. Für Kunstwerke erzielte Preise beeinflussen deren Einordnung in den kunstgeschichtlichen Kanon. Auktionshäuser haben sich neben Kunstmessen, Galerien und Kunsthandel als dominante Distributionsform etabliert. Dabei gleicht die rituelle Dramaturgie der Auktion bis heute einem archaischen Wettstreit: Sie verschlägt Mitwirkenden die Sprache und zieht Unbeteiligte in ihren Bann. Im Zentrum steht der Auktionator, dessen Art des Auftritts zunehmend den Zuschlag und Auktionserfolg bestimmt. Anhand der Porträts von Auktionatoren, darunter auch eine Frau, erzählt der Band die Geschichte des Kunstauktionswesens. Entscheidende Ereignisse an Schauplätzen wie New York, Paris, Zürich, Berlin, Stuttgart oder Pompeji werden lebendig und zeigen, wie der Auktionator aus dem Schatten gesichtsloser Dienstleistung als Star ins Rampenlicht tritt. (Deutsche Ausgabe ISBN 978-3-7757-3912-2) Es erscheint auch eine Buchausgabe (deutsche Ausgabe ISBN 978-3-7757-3902-3, englische Ausgabe ISBN 978-3-7757-3903-0).

Fermentation Processes: Emerging and Conventional Technologies
Explores the use of conventional and novel technologies to enhance fermentation processes Fermentation Processes reviews the application of both conventional and emerging technologies for enhancing fermentation conditions, examining the principles and mechanisms of fermentation processes, the microorganisms used in bioprocesses, their implementation in industrial fermentation, and more. Designed for scientists and industry professionals alike, this authoritative and up-to-date volume describes how non-conventional technologies can be used to increase accessibly and bioavailability of substrates by microorganisms during fermentation, which in turn promotes microbial growth and can improve processes and productivity across the agri-food, nutraceutical, pharmaceutical, and beverage industries. The text begins by covering the conventional fermentation process, discussing cell division and growth kinetics, current technologies and developments in industrial fermentation processes, the parameters and modes of fermentation, various culture media, and the impact of culture conditions on fermentation processes. Subsequent chapters provide in-depth examination of the use of emerging technologies—such as pulsed electric fields, ultrasound, high-hydrostatic pressure, and microwave irradiation—for biomass fractionation and microbial stimulation. This authoritative resource: Explores emerging technologies that shorten fermentation time, accelerate substrate consumption, and increase microbial biomass Describes enhancing fermentation at conventional conditions by changing oxygenation, agitation, temperature, and other medium conditions Highlights the advantages of new technologies, such as reduced energy consumption and increased efficiency Discusses the integration and implementation of conventional and emerging technologies to meet consumer and industry demand Offers perspectives on the future direction of fermentation technologies and applications Fermentation Processes: Emerging and Conventional Technologies is ideal for microbiologists and bioprocess technologists in need of an up-to-date overview of the subject, and for instructors and students in courses such as bioprocess technology, microbiology, new product development, fermentation, food processing, biotechnology, and bioprocess engineering.
Post-Soviet Secessionism
The USSR’s dissolution resulted in the creation of not only fifteen recognized states but also of four non-recognized statelets: Nagorno-Karabakh, South Ossetia, Abkhazia, and Transnistria. Their polities comprise networks with state-like elements. Since the early 1990s, the four pseudo-states have been continously dependent on their sponsor countries (Russia, Armenia), and contesting the territorial integrity of their parental nation-states Azerbaijan, Georgia, and Moldova. In 2014, the outburst of Russia-backed separatism in Eastern Ukraine led to the creation of two more para-states, the Donetsk People’s Republic (DNR) and the Luhansk People’s Republic (LNR), whose leaders used the experience of older de facto states. In 2020, this growing network of de facto states counted an overall population of more than 4 million people.
The essays collected in this volume address such questions as: How do post-Soviet de facto states survive and continue to grow? Is there anything specific about the political ecology of Eastern Europe that provides secessionism with the possibility to launch state-making processes in spite of international sanctions and counteractions of their parental states? How do secessionist movements become embedded in wider networks of separatism in Eastern and Western Europe? What is the impact of secessionism and war on the parental states?
The contributors are Jan Claas Behrends, Petra Colmorgen, Bruno Coppieters, Nataliia Kasianenko, Alice Lackner, Mikhail Minakov, and Gwendolyn Sasse.
Russian Active Measures
The contributions gathered in this fascinating collection, in which scholars from a diverse range of disciplines share their perspectives on Russian covert activities known as Russian active measures, help readers observe the profound influence of Russian covert action on foreign states’ policies, cultures, people’s mentality, and social institutions, past and present. Disinformation, forgeries, major show trials, cooptation of Western academia, memory, and cyber wars, and changes in national and regional security doctrines of states targeted by Russia constitute an incomplete list of topics discussed in this volume. Most importantly, through a nexus of perspectives and through the prism of new documents discovered in the former KGB archives, the texts highlight the enormous scale and the legacies of Soviet/Russian covert action.
Because of Russia’s annexation of Crimea in 2014 and its on-going war in Ukraine’s Donbas, Ukraine lately gained international recognition as the epicenter of Russian disinformation campaigns, invigorating popular and scholarly interest in conventional and non-conventional warfare.
The studies included in this collection illuminate the objectives and implications of Russia’s attempts to ideologically subvert Ukraine as well as other nations. Examining them through historical lenses reveals a cultural clash between Russia and the West in general.
