Other Saudis
Toby Matthiesen traces the politics of the Shia in the Eastern Province of Saudi Arabia from the nineteenth century until the present day. This book outlines the difficult experiences of being Shia in a Wahhabi state, and casts new light on how the Shia have mobilised politically to change their position. Shia petitioned the rulers, joined secular opposition parties and founded Islamist movements. Most Saudi Shia opposition activists profited from an amnesty in 1993 and subsequently found a place in civil society and the public sphere. However, since 2011 a new Shia protest movement has again challenged the state. The Other Saudis shows how exclusionary state practices created an internal Other and how sectarian discrimination has strengthened Shia communal identities. The book is based on little-known Arabic sources, extensive fieldwork in Saudi Arabia and interviews with key activists. Of immense geopolitical importance, the oil-rich Eastern Province is a crucial but little known factor in regional politics and Gulf security.

Sectarian Gulf
As popular uprisings spread across the Middle East, popular wisdom often held that the Gulf States would remain beyond the fray. In Sectarian Gulf, Toby Matthiesen paints a very different picture, offering the first assessment of the Arab Spring across the region. With first-hand accounts of events in Bahrain, Saudi Arabia, and Kuwait, Matthiesen tells the story of the early protests, and illuminates how the regimes quickly suppressed these movements. Pitting citizen against citizen, the regimes have warned of an increasing threat from the Shia population. Relations between the Gulf regimes and their Shia citizens have soured to levels as bad as 1979, following the Iranian revolution. Since the crackdown on protesters in Bahrain in mid-March 2011, the "Shia threat" has again become the catchall answer to demands for democratic reform and accountability. While this strategy has ensured regime survival in the short term, Matthiesen warns of the dire consequences this will have—for the social fabric of the Gulf States, for the rise of transnational Islamist networks, and for the future of the Middle East.

Reproduction Reconceived
The landmark case Roe v. Wade redefined family: it is now commonplace for Americans to treat having children as a choice. But the historic decision also coincided with widening inequality, an ongoing trend that continues to make choice more myth than reality. In this new and timely history, Matthiesen shows how the effects of incarceration, for-profit healthcare, disease, and poverty have been worsened by state neglect, forcing most to work harder to maintain a family.

Das Wissen der Städte
Stadt des Wissens, Wissensstadt, Wissenschaftsstadt, Wissen schafft Stadt, Wissen als Motor und Markenzeichen für Städte und Regionen, Stadt- und Metropolregion des Wissens - die strategische Verschränkung von Wissen und Stadtentwicklungen ließe sich mühelos fortsetzen. Wissenschaft, Politik, Ökonomie und Planung waren gerade im ersten Jahrzehnt des 21. Jahrhunderts von einem regelrechten Hype wissensbasierter Raumentwicklungsansätze gekennzeichnet. Andererseits hielt sich im Gegenlager der kritischen Stadtforschung hartnäckig die Skepsis gegenüber der neuen Rolle von Wissen an den Standorten der "postfordistischen" Wissensproduktion. Dieser Band vertieft die Diskussion um die Ressource Wissen im stadtregionalen Raum, die in der Scientific Community sowie in Politik und Verwaltung inzwischen weite Kreise zieht.

Proteostasis
This volume highlights the role of proteostasis in human health and associated disease model systems, reflecting its rising importance which has led to the development of new technologies to obtain insight into underling protein mechanistic events. Written in the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series format, chapters include introductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step, readily reproducible laboratory protocols, and tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls.Authoritative and cutting-edge, Proteostasis: Methods and Protocols aims to become a reference book on proteostasis in human health.

Weiberkram
Der herkömmliche Qualitätsjournalismus in Deutschland vernachlässigt das Thema Mode und damit das weibliche Publikum. Das ist das Ergebnis dieses Bandes, der die Mode-Berichterstattung der "New York Times", der "Süddeutschen Zeitung" und der "Frankfurter Allgemeinen" analysiert hat. Die Autorin beläßt es nicht bei der Kritik. Vor allem im amerikanischen Journalismus hat sie entdeckt, wie das Thema Mode auch kompetent und in einer Weise behandelt werden kann, daß es Frauen interessiert. Die Autorin entwickelt Qualitätskriterien für die Modeberichterstattung, die sie an Beispiel-Artikeln verdeutlicht.
