Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -The main purpose of this exploratory study was to investigate teachers¿ beliefs towards grammar teaching and their practices when teaching grammar in EFL classrooms. It aimed to collect evidence of their instructional practices and examine the relationships between their thoughts and action…s. Furthermore, it attempted to stand on the probable contextual factors that influence the transformation of beliefs into practice. All the teachers involved in this study were Arabs, teaching English language in government preparatory schools in Sharjah. In the first stage of the study, 46 in-service teachers were invited to fill in a self-report questionnaire to elicit their beliefs and classroom practices regarding grammar teaching. In the second stage, two semi structured interviews were conducted with these teachers to gain deeper understanding of their personal opinions, beliefs and perspectives. The findings revealed that teachers undeniably have a set of multifaceted beliefs regarding the eight beliefs dimensions under study including the grammar role in learning, grammar approaches, grammar practising, error treatment, the use of grammatical terminology and students' first language.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -The term money laundering brings to our mind those nefarious activities of criminals who provide an envelope to slush funds in order to exhibit those as genuine money. As per an estimate of the IMF, the aggregate size of money laundering in the world could be somewhere between two and five…percent of the world s GDP. Money-laundering has acquired a global character that not only threatens security, but also compromises the stability, transparency, and efficiency of financial systems. Money-laundering techniques are becoming more sophisticated and complex with each passing day. Across the world, financial institutions such as banks, insurers, and securities are usually considered in the front line in the war against illicit money movements. Therefore, they are required to introduce and implement systems to prevent such anti-social elements from using banking channels for money laundering. As part of this process Ethiopia has promulgated a law against money laundering and this book has made an in-depth analysis of the laws in this perspective vis-a-vis international tenets. 132 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -In the majority of African cities today more than 75% of the basic needs of the population are provided by the informal sector. These include shelter, subsistence incomes, services such as water, energy, neighbourhood security, was…tewater removal and transportation. Indeed, the pervasiveness of informalism has reduced the scope of formal management to a very small sphere of urban life. These informal dynamics are not only largely outside the reach of formal management systems of urban governments, but the present relationship of the urban poor to authorities is also one of negative engagement . Whether fighting eviction, stealing electricity or water, or resisting regulation or taxes, it is this negative engagement that stands out as a prominent issue for municipalities and other authorities. The main point that emerges from the many accounts of negative engagement and disengagement is that the modern state is rapidly ceasing to be an embodiment of civil society and protector of the poor, week and oppressed. s already indicated, it appears as if the modern state cannot secure living conditions for the majority that are socially, economically and politically just. 92 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The demand for high data rate reliable communications poses great challenges to the next generation wireless systems in highly dynamic mobile environments. In this Book, we focus on the blind receiver design for SISO transmission o…ver block fading and time-variant channels. We investigate the joint Maximum-Likelihood (ML) channel estimation and data detection for SISO wireless systems with general constellations and propose a low complexity blind algorithm for finding the exact joint ML solution. The method uses some a priori information about the communication problem to improve the channel estimation accuracy and bit error rate. The Book considers two SISO systems; circular (OFDM) and linear convolution systems. In the circular convolution system, we show how an OFDM symbol, transmitted over block fading channel, can be blindly detected using the output symbols only. In the linear convolution system, we perform a blind equalization for a data packet transmitted over block fading channel using the received symbols only. Finally, the Book considers a more realistic problem in which we design a blind receiver for linear convolution SISO transmission over time-variant channels. 112 pp. Englisch.

Efficient and experience workforce always becomes an important contributor towards overall organizational performance. In the present world of business…, human resource competence determines level of competence of an organization. In order to remain competitive, firms have to take part in increasing satisfaction level of its human capital on regular basis.Females, although the most important element of workforce but are the most neglected part of our economy and the gender differences are prevailing at their apex level.

About one fifth of the Pakistan s GDP is generated from informal sector which employed 20 million workers in total, out of which 12 million are female staff (Mustafa, 2011). So women are a big chunk of workforce in Pakistan. This research is an attempt to evaluate the job satisfaction level of female employees working in the banking sector and telecommunication sector of Pakistan. 68 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Buying Behaviour is the decision process and acts of people involved in buying and using products. The perception of the most consumers is that the relatively high price is a sign of good quality. A popular belief is: you get for w…hat you pay for . Therefore consumers tend to believe that high price is an indicator of better quality. Although many studies conducted on price quality relationship have supported this belief, it is necessary to find the relationship to be product specific with quality among the consumers. The book Buyer Behaviour towards Price and Quality written by me has given clarity to the concept. This study aims to analyse the buyer behaviour in the context of price & quality on Durable product, Semi-durable product & Non durable product. This study may help the manufactures to modify their product quality according to consumer s expectations and also increase the sales. It has reviewed all relevant literature relating to the topic.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The concepts of corporate governance (CG) and corporate social responsibility (CSR) are rapidly gaining ground in today s competitive market place. As a result of this, many companies are trying to incorporate these concepts in the…ir business models or in their logic of value creation to various stakeholders. In this study, the authors regard strategy and business models as different constructs and argue that institutional pressures from NGOs and other governing bodies and associations as postulated by the Total Responsibility Management school of thought (encouraging the adoption of a good sense of CSR and CG) can be viewed as one of the inspirations behind the contingencies that affect a firm s (one which advocates this CSR business philosophy) intended strategy.Thus, making a firm s reactive CSR and CG compliance practices these contingencies.The authors use a case study approach of IKEA that greatly seems to advocate this concept of CSR and CG.The authors conclude this study with an argument that though reactive CG and CSR practices are good, a company that claims to incorporate the CSR philosophy in its business model or vision must also be proactive in its application. 76 pp. Englisch.

This indicates that the rate at which the product lines are sold is largely determined by the specific gender. Thus, this interpretive enquiry invol…ved a case study that examined the attitudes of middle aged women of Southerton towards a gendered dress code. The focus was on middle-aged women since they are the main purveyors of culture and constitute a large segment of dress consumers. Ten women and their families were purposefully sampled from a population of three hundred households. Interviews, observations and artefacts were the data collecting tools. The qualitative data were presented in both descriptive and narrative forms. Findings were intended to benefit the designers, manufacturers and marketers of dress. The findings indicated that most women held conservative views towards a gendered dress code and its transmission was not easy for most women especially those with teenagers. Religion was found to be pivotal in influencing dress choices. The study recommends that the clothing industry engage in a periodic research activity, which seeks to establish consumer attitudes. 84 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Reflecting on political conduct of contemporary world politics in general that is apparently not more concerned with ethical values and of Muslim worlds in particular, the author provides the readers the ethical values for politica…l practices in the light of Islamic tenets. This book studies the classical work of Ibn Qutaybah s Uyun al-Akhbar (Springs of Narratives), which was written within 9th century, with special focus on its first volume Kitab al-Sultan (Book of Authority). It therefore discusses and expounds systematically the Islamic political ethics presented in it as a response towards contemporary political misconduct that overwhelm Muslim worlds such as corruption, oppression, abuse of authority, etc. Along with Kitab al-Sultan as refinement and remedy for contemporary political paucity, the author s message is to show that the essential notion of contemporary Islamic polity that has been lost is that the inner heart, which should be put in serious consideration. It is due to the restoration of Islamic values could not be captured unless it must start from each single Muslim to refine his Iman (belief). 108 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The right of revolution in the social contract theories of Thomas Hobbes and John Locke is a curious topic. This paper discusses the differences and similarities between the two philosophers discussions of this topic. It is argued…that Hobbes and Locke differ most drastically on the notion of who the sovereign is. While Hobbes prefers to establish the sovereign as a demigod, Locke understands the sovereign as a mortal, and thus fallible, man. It is because of this distinction that Hobbes and Locke disagree on the notion of the right of revolution. Furthermore, the American Founding Fathers, including James Madison and Thomas Jefferson, inherited Locke s perspective on this matter when arguing for the independence of the colonies. Finally, it is the conclusion of this paper that this notion of the right of revolution continues today, when observing the numerous political revolutions around the world. 96 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This book addresses the demographic transition potential in Ethiopia and the possibility of capturing the demographic dividend, and suggests mechanisms to facilitate this possible opportunity. It is based on the Spectrum Projection… Model covering the period from 1994 to 2050. The age structure of the Ethiopian population has remained youthful for along time now, but with recent incipient fertility decline expected to be expediting, Ethiopia s demographic profile will see considerable shift in the next four decades. Education and employment indicators witness that despite some improvements in past years, there still are huge unemployment rate and low secondary school enrollment as well as wide gender disparity both in secondary education and formal employment. Projections under different scenarios reveal that fertility plays important role to reap the demographic dividend. Thus it will determine Ethiopia s future development course including its prospect of joining Middle Income Countries, urging the Government of Ethiopia to reconsider its long standing negligence to population issues in the country. The book is meant for policy makers, researchers and experts in this area. 76 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The thesis explores how the Danish fashion industry can improve its competitive power on the North-German market: First, the North-German market is analysed, using PEST and Porter s Five Forces. The competitive situation is sound a…nd the Germans show a growing interest for Danish fashion. The market offers one of the highest purchasing power parities in the country and an increasing demand for medium-priced clothing. Second, Robert M. Grant s framework for analysing internal resources and capabilities is applied. The data illustrates that the fashion companies are similar; they have low marketing budgets and their key strengths are brand profiles and design. Third, Bettis and Prahalad s theory: The Dominant Logic uncovers how the three identified dominant logics affect the Danish fashion industry: the one-way communication strategy, a lack of web-shops and missing co-operation internally in the industry. The keyword to success is co-operation within the fashion field. Four identified issues will improve the industry s competitive power: understanding the German culture, co-operation within the industry, innovation of both the communication strategy and the online appearance. 96 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This book brings two empirical essays together on international macroeconomics, more specifically in international finance and trade. The aim of book is two-fold. First, the book investigates two per se interesting questions on int…ernational finance and trade which are: why wage differences occur across countries and whether foreign direct investment (FDI) triggers productivity and economic growth in host countries. Second, the book uses recently developed panel cointegration methods in analyzing these two separate questions. Therefore, the book makes its contribution both empirically and methodologically to international macroeconomics. At the end of the book, interested readers would be able to follow the steps we use for panel cointegration analysis from scratch and would apply this methodology to their own research projects. 116 pp. Englisch.
