    In this volume researchers from Asia, Europe, the Middle East and North and South America employ a variety of theoretical perspectives and methodological approaches in their exploration of the links between identity, motivation, and autonomy in language learning. On a conceptual level the authors explore issues related to agency, metacognition, imagination, beliefs, and self. The book also addresses practice in classroom, self-access, and distance education contexts, considering topics such as teachers’ views on motivation, plurilingual learning, sustaining motivation in distance education, pop culture and gaming, study abroad, and the role of agency and identity in the motivation of pre-service teachers. The book concludes with a discussion of how an approach which sees identity, motivation, and autonomy as interrelated constructs has the potential to inform theory, practice and future research directions in the field of language teaching and learning

    Secular criticism is a term invented by Edward Said to denote not a theory but a practice that counters the tendency of much modern thinking to reach for a transcendentalist comfort zone, the very space philosophy wrested away from religion in the name of modernity. Using this notion as a compass, this book reconfigures recent secularism debates on an entirely different basis, by showing (1) how the secular imagination is closely linked to society’s radical poiesis, its capacity to imagine and create unprecedented forms of worldly existence; and (2) how the space of the secular animates the desire for a radical democratic politics that overturns inherited modes of subjugation, whether religious or secularist.Gourgouris’s point is to disrupt the co-dependent relation between the religious and the secular—hence, his rejection of fashionable languages of postsecularism—in order to engage in a double critique of heteronomous politics of all kinds. For him, secular criticism is a form of political being: critical, antifoundational, disobedient, anarchic, yet not negative for negation’s sake but creative of new forms of collective reflection, interrogation, and action that alter not only the current terrain of dominant politics but also the very self-conceptualization of what it means to be human.Written in a free and combative style and given both to close readings of texts and to gazing off into the broad horizon, these essays cover a range of issues—historical and philosophical, archaic and contemporary, literary and political—that ultimately converge in the significance of contemporary radical politics: the assembly movements we have seen in various parts of the world in recent years. The secular imagination demands a radical pedagogy and unlearning a great many established thought patterns. Its most important dimension is not battling religion per se but dismantling theological politics of sovereignty in favor of radical conditions for social autonomy

Die analysierten literarischen Texte loten aus, was es bedeutet, dass der Tod sich unserer Erfahrung entzieht, nehmen gleichwohl die Herausforderung dieser Darstellungsproblematik an und zeigen neue Ästhetiken und Schreibweisen des Sterbens auf.

    A number of UN conventions and declarations (on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples, the Protection and Promotion of the Diversity of Cultural Expressions and the World Heritage Conventions) can be understood as instruments of international governance to promote democracy and social justice worldwide. In Indonesia (as in many other countries), these international agreements have encouraged the self-assertion of communities that had been oppressed and deprived of their land, especially during the New Order regime (1966-1998). More than 2,000 communities in Indonesia who define themselves as masyarakat adat or "indigenous peoples" had already joined the Indigenous Peoples' Alliance of the Archipelago" (AMAN) by 2013. In their efforts to gain recognition and self-determination, these communities are supported by international donors and international as well as national NGOs by means of development programmes. In the definition of masyarakat adat, "culture" or adat plays an important role in the communities' self-definition. Based on particular characteristics of their adat, the asset of their culture, they try to distinguish themselves from others in order to substantiate their claims for the restitution of their traditional rights and property (namely land and other natural resources) from the state. The authors of this volume investigate how differently structured communities - socially, politically and religiously - and associations reposition themselves vis-à-vis others, especially the state, not only by drawing on adat for achieving particular goals, but also dignity and a better future.

    Most workers in the developing world do not receive the benefits they are legally entitled to. Why, then, is there so little public enforcement? This paper argues that this is partly because of a lack of an autonomous and professional bureaucracy. Using a novel dataset with objective measures of labor inspections and fines across countries, we show that Weberian bureaucracies are more likely to enforce labor standards. We provide OLS and 2SLS estimates that address endogeneity concerns and use ethnographic evidence collected in Latin America to understand the mechanisms better. The case study suggests that politicized bureaucracies underinvest in labor inspection because elected officials have short-term horizons and do not internalize the social benefits of enforcement (such as formal job creation and enhancement of the rule of law) because they take time to materialize.

    Personal autonomy has been argued to be fundamental to well-being and is often discussed as an important driver of economic and political behavior. Yet, preferences for autonomy are not well understood, because their identification requires the separation of instrumental value attached to autonomous choice. We propose a novel elicitation method that solves this identification challenge. We establish the existence of intrinsic preferences for choice autonomy and show substantial heterogeneity in a large online sample. We further study their antecedents by relating them to existing personality scales and socioeconomic characteristics. Finally, we test their association with other preferences, attitudes and beliefs.

    This paper examines the impact of manufacturing employment on women's health and decision-making power within households in Lesotho. Under the US African Growth and Opportunity Act of 2000, the employment of women in ready-made garment (RMG) factories in new industrial zones greatly increased. Subsequent shocks to international demand for textile products created by the phase-out of the Multi-Fiber Agreement and the 2008 Financial Crisis temporarily reduced well-paid RMG work opportunities. Women residing closer to the industrial zones were particularly affected. These changes are exploited for identification of causal impacts. Employment in the RMG sector is found to substantially increase women's say in decisions about the allocation of household resources and own health.

    We examine the moderating role of being a supervisor for meaning and autonomy of self-employed and employed workers. We rely on regression analysis applied after entropy balancing based on a nationally representative dataset of over 80,000 individuals in 30 European countries for 2005, 2010, and 2015. We find that being a self-employed supervisor is correlated with more work meaningfulness and autonomy compared with being a salaried supervisor working for an employer. Wage supervisors and self-employed supervisors experience similar stress levels and have similar earnings, though self- employed supervisors work longer hours. Moreover, solo entrepreneurs experience slightly less work meaningfulness, but more autonomy compared with self-employed supervisors. This may be explained by the fact that solo entrepreneurs earn less but have less stress and shorter working hours than self- employed supervisors.

    Klappentext: Friedrich Schiller, der Grandseigneur klassischer Autonomieästhetik, war auch ein politischer Denker. In den 1790er Jahren versetzte ihn die Lektüre Immanuel Kants ebenso in Aufruhr wie die Französische Revolution: Machtmissbrauch, politischer Widerstand, Verschwörung und Tyrannenmord sind nur einige der genuin politischen Themen, die er literarisch immer wieder neu variiert. Die Beiträge dieses Bandes betrachten den Zusammenhang zwischen politischen, juridischen und ethischen Dimensionen von Schillers Werk. Neben den „großen“ Dramen sowie den philosophischen und historischen Schriften wird der Nexus von Ethik, Recht und Politik auch an den „Werkrändern“ in den Blick genommen, in Schillers kleinen Formen ebenso wie in seinen Fragmenten. Mit Beiträgen von Oliver Bach, Antonino Falduto, Maria Carolina Foi, Markus Hien, Matthias Löwe, Vincenz Pieper, Jens Ole Schneider, Michael Schwingenschlögl, Sebastian Speth, Gideon Stiening und Ludwig Stockinger. Klappentext engl.: Friedrich Schiller, the grand master of the classical aesthetic of autonomy, was also a political thinker. In the 1790s, reading Immanuel Kant upset him, as did the French Revolution: abuse of power, political resistance, conspiracy and tyrannicide are just a few of the genuinely political themes that he repeatedly varies in literary terms. The articles in this volume consider the connection between the political, legal and ethical dimensions of Schiller's work. In addition to his 'big' dramas as well as his philosophical and historical writings, they examine the nexus of ethics, law and politics at the 'margins' of his work, in both his short works and his literary fragments. With contributions by Oliver Bach, Antonino Falduto, Maria Carolina Foi, Markus Hien, Matthias Löwe, Vincenz Pieper, Jens Ole Schneider, Michael Schwingenschlögl, Sebastian Speth, Gideon Stiening and Ludwig Stockinger.

    Die gesellschaftlich-politische Debatte um ein angemessenes, vielerorts so bezeichnetes „humanes“ Sterben spiegelt sich auch in literarischen Texten wider. Die Literatur wird in diesem Zusammenhang zum Seismografen und Aushandlungsraum im Spannungsfeld zwischen individueller Erzählung, ökonomisierter Medizin, politischen Debatten und Fiktion. Die analysierten literarischen Texte loten aus, was es bedeutet, dass der Tod sich unserer Erfahrung entzieht, nehmen gleichwohl die Herausforderung dieser Darstellungsproblematik an und zeigen neue Ästhetiken und Schreibweisen des Sterbens auf.

    We examine the moderating role of being a supervisor for meaning and autonomy of self-employed and employed workers. We rely on regression analysis applied after entropy balancing based on a nationally representative dataset of over 80,000 individuals in 30 European countries for 2005, 2010, and 2015. We find that being a self-employed supervisor is correlated with more work meaningfulness and autonomy compared with being a salaried supervisor working for an employer. Wage supervisors and self-employed supervisors experience similar stress levels and have similar earnings, though selfemployed supervisors work longer hours. Moreover, solo entrepreneurs experience slightly less work meaningfulness, but more autonomy compared with self-employed supervisors. This may be explained by the fact that solo entrepreneurs earn less but have less stress and shorter working hours than selfemployed supervisors.

    'In diesem Beitrag geht es um die Analyse einer Emigrantinnen-Autobiographie aus dem Jahr 1940. Im Zentrum steht die Frage nach der Konstitution des moralischen Selbst in Auseinandersetzung mit Sozialisationserfahrungen. Die hierzu entwickelte Methode orientiert sich an der Theorie der Dialogizität Michael Bachtins und fundiert sich in der zentralen These, dass sich 'Stimmen' der anderen in autobiographischen Texten finden lassen, die konstitutiv sind für die Bildung eines moralischen Selbst. Das Besondere an dieser Methode ist, dass nicht nur die Identitätskonstruktion eines moralischen Selbst aus den Sozialisationserfahrungen mit Anderen, sondern auch der Prozess der Konstruktion als individuelle Auseinandersetzung rekonstruierbar ist. Die Analyse der exemplarisch ausgewählten Autobiographie, in der Hilda Weiss ihre Lebensgeschichte bis zur Emigration aus Deutschland im Jahr 1933 erzählt, zeigt einen zentralen und frühen Grundkonflikt ihres Lebens, der von der Autorin als 'Selbstsein' oder Assimilation ans 'Anderssein' binär codiert wird. Der Kontrast 'Autonomie' oder 'Integration' wird zum dominierenden Faktor bei der Bildung ihres moralischen Selbst und ihrer Identitätskonstruktion. Verblüffend ist die Kontinuität und Dominanz dieser für die Autorin zentralen Frage im Autobiographisierungsprozess, so dass spätere Sozialisationserfahrungen keine grundsätzliche Veränderung bieten, sondern ihr 'Lebensthema' den Deutungsrahmen dieser Erfahrungen setzt.' (Autorenreferat) ; 'This paper is an analysis of the autobiography of a female emigrant, published in 1940. Its main concern is with the issue of how coping with experiences that occurred in the course of socialization helps build the moral self. The method elaborated to this end relies on Michael Bakhtin's theory of dialogism and on the key argument that autobiographical texts may carry 'voices' of others that are constitutive for building the moral self. The strength of this method is its potential to reconstruct, both, identity construction in terms of a moral ...
