This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This publication is the product of one year work/research for the purpose of completion of the Master Thesis 'EU's strategy towards Kosovo: civilian or stabilizing power ' It looks at EU's approach over Kosovo from 1999 to 2008. June 1999 marks the end of the war in Kosovo while in 2008 Kosovo declared independence, and EU launched its Rule of Law mission in Kosovo and mandated its Special Representative to implement the EU policy objectives in Kosovo.

The former is mandated by the intergovernmental side of the EU, Council of the European Union, while the latter is mandated by the supranational side of the EU, European Commission. 88 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This book provides an empirical test of the effects of fiscal decentralization and horizontal fiscal equalization on economic growth and examines the potential trade-off between horizontal fiscal equalization and economic growth in both China and India. A comparative study of these two neighbours in Asia has shown that the degree of fiscal decentralization in both countries is far from the point where its effect on economic growth becomes positive. Despite the dangers of widening disparities in terms of interregional fiscal resource distribution from further decentralization, no substantial evidence shows a trade-off between horizontal fiscal equalization and growth in either country. In addition, both the 1994 Tax Sharing System (TSS) reform in China and the 1991 economic reforms in India have contributed to economic growth. An in-depth and more thorough going fiscal decentralization with greater emphasis on equalization of fiscal disparities are required in order to assure sustainable economic growth as well as social harmony in these two Asian countries. 108 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The democratic theory of Claude Lefort is established on the idea of a society in continuous construction; the forms that it takes continuously change. From this point of view, Lefort attempts to understand modern democracy as it emerges from the breakdown of the monarchy. The monarchistic mutation of the 18th century provokes a new perception of power, because of the death of the king, the guarantor and representative of the unity of the kingdom. Because of the fact that power was embodied in the prince, and therefore gave society a body, an effective knowledge of what one meant to the other existed through the social. Consequently, Lefort draws a revolutionary and unprecedented conclusion concerning democratic society. In democratic society, the locus of power becomes an empty place; power belongs to none or to everyone. The point is that the institutional apparatus prevents governments from appropriating power for their own ends; the exercise of power is subject to the procedures of periodical redistribution. Through this approach, I try to consider the CNS and the CODESA of early 1990s as important events in terms of the definition of new social visions. 100 pp. Englisch.

Today, this continues in France as well as in many other countries across Europe. A large obstacle for Romani inclusion in France has been the lack of education regarding Romani history, which has enabled stereotypes and misperceptions of the Romani communities to become prominent. Additionally, many Romanies have not received general education as is expected by the French norm, resulting in a disparity within education, which in turn has contributed to the social exclusion experienced by Romanies. To understand how Romanies are being excluded from the hegemonic French norms, the matters of education, employment, housing, mobility, deportations and gender are explored through means of first hand interviews and fieldwork conducted in Ille-et-Vilaine, supplemented by media reports and previous research publications regarding exclusion and Romanies. 60 pp. Englisch.

To break this vicious cycle, it necessary to empower people so that they can gain access to the capital market. The group lending is an important idea that helps to break the shackle. Generally such group formation are voluntary. In India, however, there is an active public support system to enhance, monitor and further this system. In our study, we try to understand the efficacy of the public system in fostering this job. Most of the standard studies in this field are oriented towards the individuals who form group. In our case, the focus is different. We try to see how far the public authorities are able to fulfill their job. Using data from a poor district in India, we study growth and sustainability of Self Help Groups . We find that the public system is not very effective in provision of the necessary impetus towards the group formation. The links are weak and often non-existent.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -News briefings, media outlets, and speeches provide the world with public documentation that relates an action to its validation. A closer look at media and official discourse provides a mechanism of defining themes and justifications. This is especially revealing in times of violence, such as with Israeli and Palestinian attacks during Operation Cast Lead in Winter 2009. Attacks on both sides come in the wake of resonating criticism, especially concerning a lack of defense for Palestinians. Through the study of official statements by former Prime Minister Ehud Olmert and Yediot Ahronot and Haaretz newspaper articles, this book explores how Israeli media and official discourse is utilized to formulate respective identities in this critical time period. The analysis of discourse revealed that media and official discourse create negative identity markers for Palestinians, positive identity markers for Israelis, and prevent Israel from developing a discourse of responsibility in the conflict situation. 60 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The integrity of the international refugee protection regime is being shaken by the threat of terrorism. The lack of comprehensive legal definition of terrorism , while anti-terror legislations are being developed as framed by States domestic as well as foreign policies is the challenge. Albeit, terrorism is not a ground for exclusion in the 1951 Refugee Convention, States' reliance on national terrorism definitions is arguably contrasting the spirit of the Convention in which many who are indeed flying from persecution are being found ineligible for refugee protection, hence refouled. However, the absolute and non-derogable character of the non-refoulement obligation to the risk of torture and ill treatment within the human rights context and customary international law gives protection from refoulement. Although, the current overwhelming terrorism threats are compelling States to challenge its absolute and non-derogability obligation through the balancing approach as means of removal, this book argues that the absolute and the non-derogabiltiy of the non-refoulement protection must be upheld to counter such phenomena and extend non-refoulement as a complementary protection. 92 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Many development activities in the Third World countries involve the so-called donors. These are governments and other agencies that volunteer funds, material resources, and skills. It is such agencies that are technically described as trustees. That is, they conduct development activities on behalf of, or for the citizens of the Third World countries. This book addresses the trustee question by examining select projects funded by the United Nations Development Programme in Kenya. The book thus documents the myths and realities of development trusteeship in Kenya. The book argues that intentional development requires the input, or participation, of those people whose lives stand to be improved by the development activities or projects under investigation. That is, if development has to be meaningful and sustainable at the local level, it has to be informed by the desires and/or aspirations of the local communities. Development trustees are supposed to act as agencies whose activities are based on, and in direct conformity to what the members of the local population deem necessary for the improvements of their own lives. 116 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -In response to wide criticism of brand personality measures for embracing other aspects rather than brand personality construct alone, Geuens et al. (2009) have recently introduced a new measure that consists of personality items only. The present research seeks to empirically examine and compare Geuens et al. s scale with the established alternative measure by Aaker (1997). The data was collected with the use of a split sample approach and by means of questionnaire survey, within the UK premium skincare market. The comparisons were carried out in brand- and respondent-level analyses. The results show that both measures revealed similar patterns in terms of personality profiles of the studied brands, however Geuens et al. s measure discriminated more between brands and between consumer segments. It is concluded that the findings provide solid justification in favour of the new measure s superiority over the commonly used alternative by Aaker in the given research context. This study should be useful to marketing scholars and practitioners alike, or anyone else who may be considering utilizing brand personality measures for marketing efforts. 100 pp. Englisch.
