Raum und räumliche Beziehungen sind Konstrukte. Sicht-, Denk- und Interpretationsweisen wirken aus dem Hintergrund der aktuellen und historisch gewachsenen gesellschaftlichen Verhältnisse auf die Herstellung nicht zuletzt sprachlich konstruierter Wirklichkeiten ein. In diesem Beitrag werden die Grundzüge von Poststrukturalismus und Postmodernismus skizziert und das vorliegende Heft in seinem Stellenwert für die (Human-) Geographie begründet. Desweiteren wird in die einzelnen Beiträge des Heftes eingeführt.
Metropolregionen werden in der aktuellen Globalisierungsdebatte als Entscheidungs-, Kontroll- und Koordinationszentren von internationaler Bedeutung verstanden. Sie «bündeln» entsprechende Knoten (hubs), deren Verortung, funktionale Bedeutung und regionale Reichweite die Rolle und den Entwicklungspfad der Metropolregion bestimmen. Frankfurt/Rhein-Main ist erst in den letzten beiden Jahrzehnten in diese Rolle hineingewachsen. Knotenfunktionen bestehen heute in drei Themenfeldern: dem Innovationszentrum, dem Finanzplatz und dem Markt(informations)platz. Im Entwicklungspfad der Metropolregion zeigt sich, daß sie zunächst in nationale Bedeutung hineinwachsen mußten, bevor sie internationale Bedeutung gewinnen konnten. Die Knotenfunktionen der Metropolregion Frankfurt/Rhein-Main in den drei genannten Feldern sind jedoch «ungesichert». Daher muß offen bleiben, ob der Aufstieg von Frankfurt/Rhein-Main zur europäischen Metropolregion Auswirkungen auf das weitere System von Metropolregionen in Europa hat.
The Standard Model is one of the greatest successes of modern theoretical physics. Itl describes the physics of elementary particles by means of three forces, the electro-magnetisc, the weak and the strong interactions. The electro-magnetic and the weak interaction are rather well understood in comparison to the strong interaction.
The latest is as fundamental as the others, it is responsible for the formation of all hadrons which are classified into mesons and baryons. Well-known examples of the former is the pion and of the latter is the proton and the neutron, which form the nucleus of every atom. This fundamental force is believed to be described by the Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) theory. According to this theory, hadrons are not elementary particles but are composed of quarks and gluons. The latter are the vector particles of the force and so are bosons of spin 1 and the former constitute the matter and are fermions with spin 1/2. To describe the interaction a new quantum number had to be introduced: the color charge which exists in three different types (blue, green and red). The name has not been chosen arbitrary as elements created from three quarks of different colors are colorless in the same way that mixing the three primary colors leads to white. However, experimentally no colored structure has ever been observed. The quarks and the gluons seem to be confined in colorless hadrons. This property of QCD is called confinement and results from a large coupling constant at low energy (or large distance). For high energy (or small distance), the perturbative analysis of QCD permits to establish the coupling constant to be small and quarks and gluons are almost free. This property is called asymptotic freedom. The possibility for QCD to describe both behaviors is one of its amazing characteristics. However, both phenomena are not well understood and one needs a method to study both the pertubative and the confining regime.
The only known method which fulfills the above criteria is Lattice QCD and more generally Lattice Quantum Field Theory (LQFT). It consists of a discretization of the spacetime and a formulation of QCD on a four-dimensional Euclidean spacetime grid of spacing a. In this way, the theory is naturally regularized and mathematically well-defined. On the other hand, the path integral formalism allows the theory to be treated as a Statistical Mechanics system which can be evaluated via a Markov chain Monte-Carlo algorithm. This method was first suggested by Wilson in 1974 [1] and shortly after Creutz performed the first numerical simulations of Yang-Mills theory [2] using a heath-bath Monte-Carlo algorithm. It appears that this method is extremely demanding in computational power. In its early days the method was criticized as the only feasible simulations involved non-physical values such as extremely large quark masses, large lattice spacing a and no dynamical quarks. With the progress of the computers and the appearance of the super-computer, the studies have come close to the physical point. But one still needs to deal with discrete space time and finite volume. Several techniques have been developed to estimate the infinite volume limit and the continuum limit. The smaller the lattice spacing and the larger the volume, the better the extrapolation to continuum and infinite volume limits is. The simulations are still very expensive and for the moment a typical length of the box is L ≈ 4fm and a ≈ 0.08fm. However, it has been realized simulating pure Yang-Mills theory and other lower dimensional models that the topology is freezing at small a [3]. It was also observed recently on full QCD simulations [4,5].
The typical lattice spacing for which this problem appears in QCD is a ≈ 0.05fm but this value depends on the quark mass used and on the algorithm. The freezing of topology leads to results which differ from physical results. Solving this issue is important for the future of LQCD [6]. Recently several methods to overcome the problem have been suggested, one of the most popular is the used of open boundary conditions [7] but this promising method has still its own issues, mainly the breaking of translation invariance.
Nach der Wiedervereinigung der beiden deutschenStaaten im Jahr 1990 wurde in den neuen Bundesländern der weitgehend verstaatlichte Grund undBoden in Privateigentum zurücküberführt. Da in derDDR eine Wiedergutmachung nationalsozialistischenUnrechts weitgehend ausgeblieben war, wurde dieRestitutionsregelung auf die Eigentumsentziehungenbis 1933 ausgedehnt.Die wenig erforschte «Arisierung» des Grundeigentums während des Nationalsozialismus gewann damitan erneuter Aktualität. Die «Arisierung» als Teilder nationalsozialistischen Judenverfolgung bedeuteteeine vollständige Verdrängung der Juden aus der Wirtschaft und damit auch aus dem Immobilienbereich.Das Ergebnis der «Arisierung» war «eine der grösstenBesitzumschichtungen der Neuzeit».Ziel des Artikels ist es, einen Überblick über die rechtlichen Regelungen und den Ablauf der «Arisierung»des Grundeigentums zu geben und mit einer Fallstudiediesen Prozess für ein konkretes Quartier im OstteilBerlins darzustellen.
