Marine Aquaculture in the Context of Sustainable Coastal Development What Influences Decision-Making Processes in Israel and G Marine Aquaculture in the context of sustainable coastal development What influences decision-making processes in Israel and Germany? Dissertation zur Erlangung des Doktorgrades der Mathematisch-Naturwissenschaftlichen Fakultät der Christian-Albrechts-Universität zu Kiel vorgelegt von Michael Schultz Kiel, 2012 Referent: Prof. Dr. Horst Sterr Korreferent: Prof. Dr. Carsten Schulz Tag der mündlichen Prüfung: 14.06.2012 Zum Druck genehmigt: Kiel, den 14.06.2012 Prof. Dr. Lutz Kipp (Der Dekan) VORWORT: Die vorliegende Dissertation entstand im Zeitraum Januar 2008 - Mai 2012 im Rahmen meiner Forschungstätigkeit am Lehrstuhl für Küstengeographie und Klimafolgenforschung des Geographischen Instituts der Christian-Albrechts-Universität zu Kiel. Sie vereint die wissenschaftlichen Ergebnisse des deutsch-israelischen Forschungsprojektes SPAMA (Socio-Political Aspects of Marine Aquaculture), welches durch die German Israeli Foundation (GIF) gefördert wurde, mit darauf aufbauenden Untersuchungen im Hinblick auf die Marikulturentwicklung in Israel und Deutschland. An dieser Stelle möchte ich mich bei dem gesamten SPAMA-Projektteam für die fruchtbare Zusammenarbeit und die Unterstützung meiner weiterführenden Untersuchungen bedanken. Insbesondere danke ich Dr. Peter Krost von Coastal Research and Management (CRM) für die vielseitigen Einblicke in die Muschel- und Algenzucht, das fachliche Feedback aber auch für die persönlichen, konstruktiven Gespräche bei köstlichen Miesmuscheln aus der Kieler Förde. Zudem möchte ich unseren israelischen Projektpartnern Prof. Dr. Eran Vigoda-Gadot, Dr. Shirra Freeman und Dr. Dror Angel für den wissenschaftlichen Austausch und die interessanten Einblicke in die israelische Kultur danken. Ich habe mich sehr gefreut das Land Israel im Rahmen meiner Forschungstätigkeit bereisen und kennenlernen zu dürfen. Mein ganz besonderer Dank gilt jedoch meinem Doktorvater Prof. Dr. Horst Sterr, der nicht nur die wissenschaftliche Betreuung meiner Dissertation übernommen sondern auch stets meine fachliche, berufliche und persönliche Weiterentwicklung unterstützt und gefördert hat. Die zweieinhalb Jahre als wissenschaftliche Hilfskraft und noch einmal fünfeinhalb Jahre als wissenschaftlicher Mitarbeiter an seinem Lehrstuhl waren für mich eine ebenso erfahrungsreiche wie auch schöne Zeit, nicht zuletzt aufgrund der sehr angenehmen und kollegialen Arbeitsatmosphäre. Auf diesem Wege wünsche ich ihm nochmals alles Gute für seinen bevorstehenden Ruhestand, hoffe aber auch, dass er der Küstengeographie mit seinem Fachwissen und Engagement noch lange erhalten bleibt. Des Weiteren möchte ich Prof. Dr. Carsten Schultz für die Übernahme des Korreferats und die Unterstützung meiner Forschungsarbeit danken. Widmen möchte ich diese Dissertation zum einen meinen Eltern, Helga und Bernhard Schultz, die mir nicht nur das Studium der Geographie ermöglichten sondern mich auch stets in meinem Lebensweg mit viel Verständnis, Liebe und Hingabe unterstützt haben. Zum anderen widme ich diese Arbeit meiner Freundin Elisabeth Goldschmidt, die mich mit unermüdlichem Einsatz und mit viel Liebe und Verständnis auch durch die stürmischsten Phasen meiner Promotion begleitet hat. Eine solche Arbeit bedeutet ein hohes Maß an persönlichem Verzicht, Fleiß und Durchhaltevermögen und ohne eure fachliche, moralische und emotionale Unterstützung läge sie heute wohl nicht vor. Danke!

Copyright C Cambridge University Press doi:10.1017/S0269889710000153 Introduction Leo Corry and Tal Golan Tel Aviv University and University of California, San Diego The history of Israeli science and technology offers a unique case study of a young and small nation that has developed an unprecedented love affair with science and technology.Unlike other nineteenth-century ideologies, Zionism was never considered to be founded on science. Nevertheless, from the very start, the Zionist movement perceived the sciences, pure and applied, as central to its program of creating a new Jewish society in the Land of Israel (Funkenstein [1985] 2003). Modern science was to provide twice for the Jews: a relief from their suffocating religion and the tools needed to recover their ancient land from its ruins. Israel would remain the people of the book, but it would be the Book of Nature, not of God, that would set it free. Sharing the universal knowledge and values of science with mankind, the Jews would finally become both normal and self-determined. Thus, already in the nineteenth century, long before the State of Israel was founded, Zionist visionaries had dreamt of it as a modern version of Francis Bacon’s utopian Kingdom of Bensalem, where science and technology would provide health, wealth, and power (Elboim-Dror 1993; Herzl 1902). This did not remain a mere dream for long. By the 1920s, the Jewish population in Palestine, which sported by most generous estimates no more than 50,000 souls, had already boasted a high-minded research university in Jerusalem; an equally ambitious technical university in the northern city of Haifa; and a number of agricultural and medical stations throughout the land.

    DOCUMENT RESUME ED 097 401 OD 014 590 AUTHOR Ogbu, John U. TITLE Social Structure and Cognitive Behavior: A Critique of the Heredity-Environment Hypothesis andan Alternative Interpretation of Black-White Differences in IQ. PUB DATE Mar 74 NOTE 43p.; Paper presented at the Annual Meeting of the Society for Applied Anthropology (Boston, Massachusetts, March 1974) EDRS PRICE ME-$0.75 HC-$1.85 PLUS POSTAGE DESCRIPTORS Cognitive Development; Cognitive Processes; Educational Problems; Employment Opportunities; Environmental Influences; Family Influence; Genetics; Heredity; *Intelligence Differences; Nature Nurture Controversy; *Racial Differences; *Racial Discrimination; Racism; *Sex Differences; Social Influences; *Social Structure ABSTRACT This paper deals with the issue of black-white differences in cognitive skills. Some authorities attribute these differences to differences in the environments of black and white homes. Others state that the differencesare due to differences in genes, i.e., heredity. Scholars holding these two opposing views have become more or less entangled is an endless debate since Jensen tablished his article in 1969. The purpose of this paper is to suggest an alternative, structural explanation. The hypothesis proposed here is that black-white differences are due to adaptation to different cognitive requirements of their respective positions in the American caste system. In particular, it argues that the ascribed status of blacks which restricts them from participating in higher levels of American techno-economic organization has resulted in blacks evolving patterns of cognitive skills whichare different from those developed by white Americans. This hypothesis has the advantage in that it can be applied to explain the observed differences between black males and black females as well as to mincrity-majority differences in other societies where similar pariahgroups exist.

M., Germany, in 1929, is professor emeritus of genetics at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. UD: Israeli scientists differed and differ strongly in their attitudes regarding collaboration with German scientists. Did Israeli scientists who were refugees from Nazi Germany have more problems to collaborate with German colleagues? RF: Elisabeth Goldschmidt, the senior geneticist in Israel in the 1950s- 1970s, born in Frankfurt a. M., abandoned her medicine studies and left for England and then for Palestine, led the campaign (together with her colleague Jacob Wahrman, also born in Frankfurt), against the decision of the International Genetics Congress 1958 in Montreal for Germany as venue of the next Congress in 1960. She did not collaborate with German scientists. But she collaborated with an Austrian geneticist, Elisabeth Stumm-Zollinger, on the population cytogenetics of Drosophila subobscura. Israel is at the border of the distribution of this species, and the two researchers could show that the variability of this fly in Israel was lower than that in Austria. In 1959 they published a joint paper: Elisabeth Stumm-Zollinger & Elisabeth Goldschmidt, Geographical differentiation of inversion systems in Drosophila subobscura, Evolution and Development 13 (1), 89-98. I do not know whether Goldschmidt was in Germany or Austria. But she was in Switzerland, where she spent a couple of months in Ernst Hadorn's lab in order to learn paper chromatography 1 for studying variability in Drosophila, a method which she introduced to genetic studies in Israel.

Haldane (1892–1964) was an outstanding scientist and a polymath who contributed significantly to physiology, genetics, biochemistry, statistics, biometry, cosmology, and philosophy, although he himself possessed no formal qualifications in any branch of science. His early science training was provided by his father, Oxford University physiologist J. S. Haldane, and the rest was self-taught. The author came to know him well as his student during his last years, which were spent in India (1957–1964). Haldane’s unique intellectual qualities and the research undertaken by his associates in India during those years are described. OHN Burdon Sanderson ( J. B. S.)

    Cambridge University Press 978-0-521-88418-1 - Genetic Analysis: A History of Genetic Thinking Raphael Falk Frontmatter More information Genetic Analysis There is a paradox lying at the heart of the study of heredity. To understand the ways in which features are passed on from one generation to the next, we have to dig deeper and deeper into the ultimate nature of things – from organisms, to genes, to molecules. And yet as we do this, increasingly we find we are out of focus with our subjects. What has any of this to do with the living, breathing organisms with which we started? Organisms are living. Molecules are not. How do we relate one to the other? In Genetic Analysis, one of the most important empirical scientists in the field in the twentieth century attempts, through a study of history and drawing on his own vast experience as a practitioner, to face this paradox head-on. His book offers a deep and innovative understanding of our ways of thinking about heredity. raphael falk is Emeritus Professor, Department of Genetics and The Program for the History and Philosophy of Science at The Hebrew University of Jerusalem.

    N o t e s I n t r o duction 1 . In accordance with the custom in the international eugenics movement, in this book, “eugenics” and “race hygiene” will be used synonymously. Although at various times there were discussions in some national eugenics organizations as to whether the two concepts were identical, in the realm of international cooperation of eugenicists, both were generally accepted as having the same meaning. On this, see Turda 2007: 1997 and 2010b: 64ff. 2 . F o r t his perspective in the early historical studies of eugenics, see Mosse 1964, 1978; Altner 1968; Gasman 1971; M ü hlen 1977. Splitting eugenics away from National Socialism has in the meantime become the established standard in historical writing. On this, see most recently Stern 2005: 2 and Turda 2010b: 1. 3 . See the early studies by Adams (1990a) on the Soviet Union, Dikö tter (1989) on China, Stepan (1991) on Brazil and other South American countries, and Suzuki (1975) on Japan. 4 . S e e for example the early studies by Schwartz (1995a, 1995b) and Weindling (1987) on socialist and liberal eugenicists, the book by Cleminson (2000) on anarchist eugeni- cists, and the works by Allen (1988, 1991) on feminist eugenicists. 5 . See, for example, Rosen (2004), particularly for the eugenics policies of the Protestants and Catholics in the United States; Leon (2004) in the American Eugenics Society; Richter (2001) on Catholicism and eugenics in Germany; L öscher (2009) on “Catholic eugenics” in Austria; and Falk (2006 and 2010), and Lipphardt (2009) on “Jewish eugenics.” John Glad’s book (2011: 112ff), which should be read not as an historical monograph but as a contemporary plea for a “Jewish eugenics,” has a collection of posi- tive statements by Jews about eugenics.
