Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Experts generally agree that increased greenhouse gases in the atmosphere will result in changes in climate. Increased attention by policy makers to this threat of climate change has brought with it considerable attention to the po…ssibility of using forests as a means of sequestering and reducing emissions of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. Forestry is an important sector in Kenya. Long term development of the forestry sector will affect the future amounts of carbon sequestration and emission of the country. The purpose of this study was to provide an understanding of the role that Kakamega forest can play in the mitigation of climate change. It confirms the huge atmospheric carbon dioxide that can be offset by the Kakamega forest, indicating the potential of Kenya to participate in carbon trading for both its economic and environmental benefit. The results can expedite policy decisions regarding Kenya's participation in carbon trading through the CDM as well as providing benefits to the national forestry sector, and participants in the community forestry, in terms of an overall increase in income, and achieving self-sufficiency. 64 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -There is a divide that exists in India both digitally as well as socially. So the question that one may ask here is how to make technology really relevant in a country where over 70 percent of the people live in rural areas or in c…ircumstances where social and developmental issues such as poverty, illiteracy and health problems are rampant. That is what has been asked by many academicians and researchers' alike, but no sufficiently appropriate answer has emerged. At the same time hundreds of Information and Communication (ICT) led development projects have sprung up around the country armed with the assumption that these tools carry with them at least a part of the solution to India's developmental problems. This research conducted over months of study in various villages around India aims to answer the question as to whether mere access to these tools is enough to make a real difference to a society grappling with a variety of socio-economic problems or does it take more than just that. 100 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -In Uganda, just like other parts of the world, the debate over whether Female Headed Households (FHHS) are poor has been wedging on with inconclusive results.

This book examines the poverty status of FHHs in Uganda and explores the attributes of such status with regard to household conditions and urban areas. Data from the Uganda National Household Survey provided by Uganda Bureau of Statistics provides the basis of analysis. Individuals, international, government and Civil Society Organisations involved in poverty alleviation especially with disaggregated groups like women and Female heads of households will greatly benefit from this book. 68 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -After the revolutionary arguments of relevance lost (Johnson and Kaplan, 1987) the traditional management accounting practices have gone through huge debates. Management accounting tools like target costing, kaizen costing, competi…tor analysis, balanced scorecard, value chain analysis, quality costing, just in time and others got great responses from the academicians. But when the issue of practical applicability came, it was found that, in so many cases, these revolutionary new tools and techniques of management accounting did not get much importance from the part of the practitioners. Another important matter that was found is that the popularity of these tools varied across the countries. The monograph concludes that there is a divergence in the use of management accounting practices among the industries and among the national cultures because of the fact that these contemporary management accounting tools demand some prerequisites to get applied and these prerequisites are not available in the same level in different countries. 88 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The potential for intra-SADC trade expansion exists and is quantifiable. In statistical terms, current levels of intra-SADC trade amount to an estimated 6% of the region's total trade. The book focuses on intra-industry trade betwe…en Zimbabwe and SADC member states. SADC has established itself as an international trading bloc. Current levels of trade between selected SADC countries reveal imbalance in trade patterns, in favour of RSA, which exports several times the volume of its imports, and to some extent of Zimbabwe. Very few studies have been done on intra industry trade in SADC. There is no study so far that has been done to determine the factors that influence Zimbabwe's IIT with SADC. The non-existence of attention given to IIT and Zimbabwe has increased the author's curiosity to explore the factors that influence IIT between Zimbabwe and its trading partners within SADC. This book aimed at identifying those variables that influence intra-industry trade between Zimbabwe and a selected number of SADC member states: Botswana, RSA, DRC, Mauritius, Malawi, Namibia, and Zambia. The book attracts a wide range of readership, from high school to university level. 64 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Insecticide- treated nets are the most powerful malaria control tool if used correctly. Yet up to date, malaria continues to be the leading cause of child mortality and morbidity in Sub-saharan Africa. This book provides insights o…n intra-household factors that affect the utilization of ITNs in households with children under five. These factors that affected utilization include; type of household structure, number of people sleeping in the household, intra-household gender relations, sleeping arrangements, disruption of sleeping patterns due to visitors and cultural rituals and functions. These factors affect consistency in utilization of ITNs and proper deployment. Therefore, public-private partnership needs to be adapted by policy makers in health departments to ensure availability of ITNs and insecticides in local shops and other outlets including arrangements at village level to re-treat the nets, the economic level of caregivers should be boosted to counteract the financial inadequacies, adoption of a behavior change strategy to transform caregivers' perceptions, cultural beliefs, practices, customs and attitudes; and massive education of the community 84 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Globalization is a process of interaction and integration among people, companies, and governments of different nations, a process driven by international trade and investment and aided by information technology. Without doubt, pre…sent-days, international trades in food play an increasingly important role in provision of sage and nutritious diets for the world's populations. In 2009, more than 51,900 infants and young children in China were hospitalized because of urinary problems. Four deaths among infants have been confirmed. In China's milk scandal, dairy suppliers are accused of Melamine-added. Thus, it is not only a health issue, but refers to social, political, economic and culture discussions. This event just likes a reaction chain that brings voices and debates from various fields and different social levels together. In author's point of view, Melamine milk event does not happen by chance, it is the certain consequence of globalization. Drawing a lesson from this event will shift our views on globalization. Besides, we need joint action both national and international to protects and ensure our rights to health and justice on food trading. 56 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Because of the current credit crisis, the property market had become less active. The rising problem is how to determine the real values of the properties The guidance on measuring fair value is dispersed across many standards and…not always consistent. The IASB issued an exposure draft in May 2009 for a new standard 'Fair value measurement' following the credit crisis. This book offers insight into the consequences of this proposed valuation standard. By a diagnostic gap analysis research the current situation will be compared with the desired situation in successful implementation. The three most important adjustments of the proposed valuation standard are extensively analyzed. The analysis should provide meaningful information about the introduction of the new standard 'Fair value measurement' for the real estate sector, and should be especially useful for preparers and users of the financial statements in the real estate industry, or anyone else who is interested in the developments in fair value measurement and its impact on the property sector. Does the introduction of the proposed valuation standard really improve the financial statements in the real estate sector 72 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This thesis examines the concept of intellectual capital and its effect on share prices as a means to solve the lemons problem existent in current capital markets. In order to see whether intellectual capital could be part of a sol…ution to combat this problem, the VAICTM was employed to determine the relevance of intellectual capital in relation to the stock price. The results of the regressions carried out show that the VAICTM is significant and provides increased explainability in the variation of stock prices. This leads to the conclusion that intellectual capital is an important determinant of share returns. Time comparisons of the R2 of calendar year regressions yielded no definitive conclusions regarding the conjecture that there was increased relevance of the measure of intellectual capital over time. Altogether, the results point towards the hypothesized relation between intellectual capital information and share returns. This indicates that high quality companies that wish to seek external financing in a market facing the lemons problem would benefit from the increased disclosure of intellectual capital information. 56 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Over time the concept and practice of strategic planning has been embraced worldwide and across sectors because of its perceived contribution to organizational effectiveness. Past studies have indicated the existence of a relations…hip between strategic planning and firm performance and mainly utilized financial performance indicators. However, the main focus has been on the direct relationship between strategic planning and performance without taking cognizance of the fact that there are other factors that could affect this relationship. This book recognizes that the attainment of the strategic planning intermediate outcomes and people involvement in the strategic planning process could influence the realization of the anticipated strategic planning results. The direct relationship between strategic planning and firm performance, the relationship between strategic planning and intermediate outcomes and the moderating effect of worker participation on these relationships is examined. The analysis could be useful to managers who practice strategic planning on the need for effective handling of the strategic planning process for company success. 120 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This study aims at contributing towards enhancing the existing level of understanding with regard to the determinants of service quality and its effects on the behavior of customers in the Greek banking industry and narrowing the e…xisting literature gap. We expect that the conclusions drawn will be welcome by the management of banking institutions and will be put to good use to progress their competitive market position. Previous research in international markets has shown that the corporate image of banking institutions to a large extend relies upon the excellence of their service delivery and their ability to sustain long-lasting relations with their customers. We hope our findings will become a useful basis for further research in the Greek or other financial services markets. A SERVQUAL type scale is developed especially customized for the Greek banking industry, assess the scale's reliability and validity and detect its factorial structure. Importance-Performance analysis is employed to provide strategic guidance to Greek banking institutions on deploying their quality efforts and resources towards better matching their customers' needs and expectations. 84 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The role of diversification strategies in financial choices has received little attention in previous empirical financial studies. The aim of this paper is to study the effect of corporate diversification strategies on firm capital… structure using a panel data analysis for a sample of 232 European firms during the period 2004-2007. Theoretical and empirical studies suggest that corporate leverage is positively related to diversification across product lines but negatively related to geographic diversification. Some studies show that these diversification strategies are complementary in generating debt usage. This paper estimates two alternative models employed by previous empirical work in the study of capital structure determinants: static trade-off model and a dynamic target adjustment model. After controlling for firm size, profitability, growth, assets tangibility and operating risk, the study finds that product and geographical diversification do not have a significant influence on leverage. 80 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -A new element of risk, the liquidity risk, has flourished along this time taking importance and playing a key role in risk management tools. This has attracted the attention of the scientific community and financial experts. Theref…ore, this book provides a theoretical introduction and a state of the art of the key elements needed to understand the complexity of the dealt issue. Mainly it gives a study over liquidy risk and its application in market risk (being included in VaR measure). It also explores a relatively new alternative approach to model the liquidity risk using artificial neural networks, which has been oriented in focused delay and recurrent neural networks due to their capability to work with time series. That analysis should help shed some light on this new environment and should be useful to professionals in finance. 116 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -In general, project success is usually measured in terms of scope, time, cost, and quality. In addition, critical risks factors are also related to scope, time, cost, and quality, as well as the risk strategies. Projects in industr…ial sectors in Peru are not exceptions. The stable Peruvian economy has attracted important public and private investments such that the number of industrial projects has increased considerably during the last decade. Despite this attractive context, industrial projects are failing to achieve their objectives due to schedule delays and cost overrun problems. The objective of this research is to identify and evaluate the critical risk factors that cause these schedule delays and cost overrun problems, as well as determine effective strategies for the avoidance of risks. The perception of Peruvian project participants in this research regarding risk management is quite fundamental for our assessment. A comparison with the perception of project participants from other countries is also a contribution to this research. 84 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This paper aims at enriching the recent discussion upon the Open Innovation paradigm (Chesbrough, 2003), providing evidence that the optimal number of alliances a firm can incept depends on factors endogenous to the firm (i.e. its…absorptive capacity) and on factors exogenous to the firm (i.e. technological maturity, other players' commitment to the Open Innovation model). The analysis deals specifically with the pharmaceutical industry, which has been brought up by Chesbrough himself as an example of commitment to the Open Innovation standard. The results of the empirical analysis provide some evidence showing that transaction costs during alliances' lifespan put a limit to the Open Innovation model. 84 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Music festivals are increasing in quantity and quality. However, management of this kind of organisations is not fully analysed in business schools and consequently managers working in such organisations have had to learn from thei…r own experiences and errors. But music festival management is complex. Managers of this kind of organisations need more than management skills alone to be able to face daily activities. Moreover, this industry has changed in several ways and it is also expected to change in the future influenced by new trends in the sector. This fact, together with the increasing creation of music events and the lack of professionalization of the field, increases the complexity of this job more and more. Therefore, there is a need to collect and formalize all the information and experiences senior managers can give us in order for us to learn from them and as such, improve the management in these organisations. Hence, the main goal of this report is to understand leadership in music festivals in a better and deeper way through the difficulties and challenges which they have to face in the process of becoming and being a manager. 100 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -In the nowadays globalized world Foreign Direct Investment and Multinational Enterprises have an increasingly important role for the world economic activity. Besides, rapidly developing countries and China, in particular, are becom…ing one of the main sources of Foreign Direct Investment. This paper examines the entry mode choices of Chinese multinational enterprises in Spain. A new theoretical framework is proposed, where the entry mode preference is examined as a two-dimensional decision, namely joint- venture vs wholly-owned subsidiaries and greenfield vs acqusition projects. Then, after an empircial section dedicated to Chinese foreign direct investment in Europe, the study provides a special focus on Spain and reviews Chinese FDI flows on a regional, industry, and firm level. This is the first attempt so far to characterize the entry mode preference as a two-dimensional decision, and apply this framework to Chinese multinationals. Hence, this work should prove useful to academic researchers working in the field of Chinese investment as well as anyone who would like to get an overview of Chinese firms that have invested in Spain. 48 pp. Englisch.

Since the NRM's taking over power they have been efforts to curtail the vice but it has remained and has not been stepped out despite the various efforts by the governme…nt to eliminate it. Today, the ACD has been established and whether it strengthens the struggle for the fight against corruption is the subject of this research. This study is an attempt to examine the manner in which the ACD operates and to ascertain its contribution to the fight against corruption in Uganda. This study examines the various issues that have made the pre ACD anti-corruption institutions fail to curtail the rampant levels of corruption. This is done by analyzing the mandate of the ACD and identifying the inadequacies of other institutions in the fight against corruption. It is against this background that my study concludes that corruption is an absurd practice which must be fought so that the people involved do not enrich themselves unjustly. The challenges involved in the fight against corruption are a major concern and should be addressed. 92 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The widespread diffusion of technology and the rise of the Internet have shaped contemporary social behaviours and processes: the resulting impacts on society are so visible and pervasive that the binding relation between humans an…d technologies can be read as the fundamental variable to define and characterize the last generation, called Y Generation. In fact, Y Geners show considerably different cognitive patterns and behaviours with respect to their predecessors, allowing them to multitask, affecting their learning preferences and moulding the way they use and select media to communicate. This work gives a description of Y Generation, analyzes the importance and the role technology and media played in shaping generational differences and finally attempts to find the key to extend findings to present and future work contexts. 96 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Since 1991 Somalia has become the paradigm of the state collapse. More recently interest in state weakness has increased in a relevant manner: state failure has become one of the most important security threats in Sub-Saharian Afri…ca. After September 11 mainstream interpretations began to assess the impact of state collapse on the global stability, but very few analyses recognise that the international capitalist system has generated, amplified, and intensified state fragility. This book provides an alternative way to conceptualize state instability: it analyzes the Somali case in a global perspective. The Quasi-state theory, elaborated by Jackson, is adopted by this book in order to investigate the sovereignty evolution between the Westphalian and the post-colonial state. The case-study of the Ogaden war should help to explain to what extent the international system has determined the collapse of the Somali state. This book is oriented towards all those who want to know the trajectory of the Somali state or are interested in exploring questions that originate from the sovereignty crisis in contemporary era. 112 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) has become an important part of most companies' activities, and the need for knowledge about the concept and the communication of it has increased. The communication of CSR is essential as it i…s the relation between a company and its stakeholders, and hence the way the stakeholders are informed about the companies' CSR efforts. This book discusses the concept of CSR, which serves as a foundation for communicating CSR most optimal. The discussion about CSR communication turns to the development of the RAU Communication Model that further is applied in the empirical analysis of Nestlé's CSR initiative The Cocoa Plan'. Through the documentary Does Your Favourite Chocolate Have a Bitter Taste' Nestlé's credibility is questioned, as the documentary proves how Nestlé buys cocoa beans from suppliers that make use of child labour and trafficking of children. A company can foster an identity, and professionally communicate it to its stakeholders, but Nestlé's true commitment to CSR is challenged. 100 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) is a relatively new prototyping technique in which parts can be produced rapidly and accurately.The present work started with the identification of the bench mark. Prototypes were built with ABS plas…tic material and measurements were made on the co-ordinate measuring machine from which IT grades were calculated to check the dimensional accuracy of the components. The purpose of this study is to find whether the FDM process is capable of producing a pattern for manufacturing a die for hand tool with good dimensional accuracy. The study involves best settings of machine by varying the part orientations and studying the effect on the consumption of the model material, support material and the time taken for production. Morphology of the components at various orientations was also studied to give an insight to the quality of the product produced at various orientations. Measured mechanical properties like micro hardness indicated the suitability of the process. Final components produced are acceptable as per ISO standard UNI EN 20286-I (1995) and DIN16901. 108 pp. Englisch.
