The Yugoslav breakup and conflict gave rise to a considerable body of literature with dramatically different interpretations of the causes of the dissolution.

Included among the reviews are books in English, German, Serbian/Croatian, and Italian, offering the English-speaking reader access to the principal ideas and theories first published in these languages.

Free Download Karin Bijsterveld, "Interdisciplinarity in the Scholarly Life Cycle: Learning by Example in Humanities and Social Science Research"
English | ISBN: 3031111079 | 2023 | 353 pages | PDF | 6 MB
This open access book illustrates how interdisciplinary research develops over the lifetime of a scholar: not in a single project, but as an attitude that trickles down, or spirals up, into research. This book presents how interdisciplinary work has inspired shifts in how the contributors read, value concepts, critically combine methods, cope with knowledge hierarchies, write in style, and collaborate. Drawing on extensive examples from the humanities and social sciences, the editors and chapter authors show how they started, tried to open up, dealt with inconsistencies, had to adapt, and ultimately learned and grew as researchers. The book offers valuable insights into the conditions and complexities present for interdisciplinary research to be successful in an academic setting.

Free Download Thorsten Stephan Beck, "Shaping Images: Scholarly Perspectives on Image Manipulation"
English | 2016 | pages: 232 | ISBN: 3110474972 | PDF | 10,1 mb
Bilder spielen bei der Wissensvermittlung eine herausragende Rolle. In zahlreichen akademischen Disziplinen werden sie zur Darstellung wissenschaftlicher Ergebnisse eingesetzt. Digitale Werkzeuge wie Adobe Photoshop erlauben es die Information in Bildern brilliant und klar darzustellen – gleichzeitig ist die Grenze zur unangemessenen Manipulation nicht immer leicht zu ziehen. Wissenschaftliche Journale haben Richtlinien für den Umgang und die Bearbeitung von Bildmaterial veröffentlicht, doch nicht immer sind diese spezifisch genug, um für alle Situationen Klarheit zu schaffen.

Free Download Scholarly Writing: Publishing Manuscripts That Are Read, Downloaded, and Cited by Mary Renck Jalongo, Olivia N. Saracho
English | PDF EPUB (True) | 2023 | 347 Pages | ISBN : 3031395158 | 18 MB
This book on scholarly writing offers a unique, evidence-based, technology-supported approach to writing for publication across the disciplines. It is suitable both as a graduate level textbook and as support for faculty seeking professional development in scholarly writing. It is a sequel to Writing for Publication: Transitions and Tools That Support Scholars’ Success. Current issues in Academia-such as the expectation that graduate students will publish, the option for doctoral students to publish in lieu of writing the dissertation, the pressure on scholars from various countries to contribute to professional journals written in English, and the metrics used to assess impact of published work-have influenced scholarly writing. Unlike other books on the topic, every chapter includes narratives of experience, self-assessment tools, guided practice activities, reviews of research, and discussion of controversies in publishing. All chapters incorporate curated online resources and technology supports as well. Across the spectrum of experience, ranging from aspiring author to prolific, readers are guided in ways to generate manuscripts that are not only readable and publishable but also downloaded and respectfully cited by their professional peers.
