• Sommario/riassunto: This book constitutes the thoroughly referred post-proceedings of the 8th International Conference on Principles of Distributed Systems, OPODIS 2004, held at Grenoble, France, in December 2004. The 30 revised full papers presented together with abstracts of 2 invited talks were carefully reviewed and selected from 102 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on design of distributed systems, ad-hoc networks and mobile agents, grid and networks, security, distributed algorithms, self-stabilization, sensor networks, and task/resource allocation.

• Note generali: What makes radical world views so attractive? And how can the revival of extremism be explained from the perspective of cultural and social studies? If major narratives were supposed to be found on the dump of history, they have lately found their way back into the discourse with the return of fundamentalism. The contributions in this book introduce mental figures and forms of rhetoric, symbolism and forms of behavior contained in various major narratives of extremes, and they discuss how the Western world embeds them in its own tale.

• Sommario/riassunto: Was macht radikale Weltbilder so attraktiv? Und wie lässt sich die Renaissance des Extremismus kultur- und sozialwissenschaftlich erklären? Sprach man bis vor Kurzem noch davon, dass Großerzählungen auf dem Schrottplatz der Geschichte liegen, finden sie neuerdings mit der Wiederkehr des Fundamentalismus den Weg zurück in den Diskurs. Die Beiträge des Bandes stellen verschiedene Großerzählungen des Extremen vor und diskutieren, wie sie sich in Denkfiguren, Rhetoriken, Symboliken und Handlungsweisen niederschlagen. Mit Beiträgen u.a. von Claus Leggewie und Susanne Schröter.; »Es ist nicht eine Erzählung, sondern unterschiedliche, widerstreitende und auch in sich differenzierte Erzählungen; der Sammelband hat sich die Aufgabe gestellt, diesen Erzählungen auf die Spur zu kommen und von demokratischer Perspektive aus diese Erzählungen zu dekonstruieren.«; Besprochen in:IDA-NRW, 2 (2018)http://www.sueddeutsche.de, 08.07.2018, Wolfgang FreundInfoDienst Migration, 3 (2018); »Der Band bietet vielfältige luzide Analysen zu aktuellen extremistischen Großerzählungen.«; »Gut lesbare und informative Aufsätze zu den Themen Neue Rechte, Populismus, Islamismus und War on Terror. Die Stärken liegen angesichts der Vielzahl an Literatur zum Thema in den empirischen Beiträgen sowie den Aufsätzen, die eine alternative Betrachtung bekannter Untersuchungsgegenstände anbieten.«
