By shrinking the world it will bring humans and other animals together in a multitude of ways that only a few years ago were unimaginable."—Marc Bekoff, University of Colorado, author of Rewilding Our Hearts: Building Pathways of Compassion and Coexistence ...

Suresh Rattan

Age

Suresh Rattan's birth certificate reads «1955». At his age, signs of decline inevitably creep in, but Suresh doesn't feel that old. In fact, he feels twenty years younger. He can even explain why. No wonder: He does research on age and ageing at Aarhus University. Thanks to evolution, we can't imagine ourselves any older than 45. Biologically, we should just give up the ghost once we've raised a few carbon copies of ourselves. But for those of us who want to stick around a...

Taking the problem of European identity as his point of departure Thomas Pedersen's book offers a new theoretical perspective upon culture, identity and nationality. His main argument is that politics are more culturalized than we assume, and that culture is more personalized than we recognize. Nationality is becoming more personalized and hybrid and is acquiring an aesthetic dimension as a side-effect of the democratization of art. Citizens in the Western world and beyond are becoming...

Antropologi i Middelalderen og RenAessancen

I middelalderen og renAessancen fandtes der ingen selvstAendig antropologisk videnskab, men der blev reflekteret i stor stil over de fremmede og deres anderledeshed. Middelalderens verdens-billede var fastlagt af kristendommen, sa nar de romerske kristne var i krig med eller blot missionerede blandt fremmede, var det isAer ved hjAelp af Biblen, man bestemte og kategoriserede de fremmede folk og dermed definerede sig selv.
