This book will be immensely valuable for students and researchers in social science, sociology and philosophy in that it connects methodology, theory and empirical research. It provides an innovative picture of what society and social science is, along with the methods used to study and explain social phenomena.
This book examines how Muslim communities in the Netherlands perceive and experience extremism, counter-radicalisation policies, and Islamophobia. It is based on the findings of two original qualitative research investigations conducted in the Netherlands, in which thirty scholars, imams, mosque board members, and representatives of Islamic organisations were interviewed. The book delves into topics such as the politicisation of the Dutch media, misunderstandings about ‘radicalisation’ and how they contribute to securitisation, and how Dutch Muslims have been confronted with the dilemma of dealing with radicalisation on their own, while also facing further vilification, securitisation, and Islamophobia, all of which continue to be issues. Additionally, the study examines the significance of ‘radical Salafi’ ideology and recruitment techniques as seen by Dutch Muslim communities.
Investigating the dynamics of balancing patterns in the Asia-Pacific, this book makes a convincing contribution to the debate on the US-China relationship.
The present volume continues the edition of a number of supplement volumes dealing with the elements tungsten and molybdenum. Technology and metallurgy of molybdenum and tungsten have been described in the respective volumes A 1. Tungsten Supplement Volume A 2 has been published and comprises the nuclear and atomic properties, sections on the clusters and the vapor, the electronic structure, the lattice dynamics, and the basic crystallographic properties. The present volume A/3 deals with the relationships between lattice defects and mechanical properties. Each of the subsequent chapters, concerning the thermal, electrical, magnetic, and optical properties, has a somewhat larger scope than the corresponding chapter in the Molybdenum Supplement Volumes. Within these chapters, some noteworthy facts are the following: the melting point of tungsten is the highest of all metals, i.e., 3695 K, the behavior of the current carriers has been studied in great detail by numerous methods, and the emissivity characteristics have received much attention above all because of the high melting point. Another special feature is the very intense study of all surface properties and the phenomena, which will be described in a forthcoming volume.
