Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -Today, the urban conglomerate of Polish Silesia finds itself experimenting a worldwide phenomenon: the continuous blurring of the spatial and conceptual borders between town, city, metropolis and megalopolis; a growing mixture of spaces, activities, interrelations and connectivities that ch…allenge the traditional -and more assessable- image of human settlement. In a crossroads of ages and geographies, Silesia becomes a political and socio-economical experiment on-the-go, a perfect laboratory in which we can study the ups and downs of the current urban trends, the attempts to understand and control them, and the impact they make on our daily quality of life.

Latin America is traditionally one of the most important areas for Mexican Foreign Policy as well as it constitutes an important region for…testing to what extent is EU capable to extend its influence over its periphery.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This book examines the relationship between the perceived corporate ethical behaviour and Brand Trust in the innovative online environment. Hitherto there has been extremely limited literature about this issue and Delgado's Brand T…rust model is associated for the first time with the characteristics of an ethical company. The existing bibliography is sketched, touching upon the interaction of CSR and Brand Trust in the novel communicative context of the Internet. Mixed methodology, by means of small-scale survey and in-depth interviews, was used in order to integrate the quantitative and the qualitative results for an overall interpretation of the research issues. Internet is found to be the most appropriate medium for communicating CSR to contemporary, more ethically oriented consumers that expect from companies to manifest social responsibility and concern. Through the use of SPSS, data analysis supports the initial presupposition that Brand Trust and perceived ethical behaviour correlate strongly. 64 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This book is composed of three essays which met the requirement for a PhD in the Applied Economics Program at Auburn University. After taking a course in economic development, I became interested in microfinance institutions, impac…t analysis, economic growth, and asymmetric information. Each essay is unique and serves a distinct purpose. The first uses data graciously provided by a Norwegian Economist, Dr. Roy Mersland, on a large global sample of small microfinance institutions. The data provided allowed for correct scale and production elasticity computation to show the constraints of reaching the poorest of the poor. The second essay compares scale based on MFI type. The results show that productive efficiency is reached with NGOs over Rural Banks, indicates lending to woman drives scale, and compares average scale by region. While attending a microfinance conference at the ULB (Universite de Bruxelles), I had the pleasure of comparing my results to Mr. Nawaz's work, a student at the University of Gottingen. The third essay incorporates borrowed funds and off-balance sheet activity which results in an exciting tale that corresponds to the Wall Street Collapse of 2007. 88 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The water quality of 100 cisterns in Hebron city- Palestine was studied through the period from December, 2007 till April, 2008. Water samples were collected directly from cisterns in two sterile glass bottles and tested for physic…al parameters (electrical conductivity, salinity, total dissolved substances, pH, temperature and turbidity), chemical parameters (alkalinity, chloride, total hardness, calcium, magnesium, ammonia and nitrate), microbiological parameters ( total coliform(TC) and faecal coliform(FC)). All the results of physical parameters are within the acceptable limits of WHO, EPA and Palestinian standards except turbidity which exceed these limits in 24 % of the cases. The percentage of contamination of total coliform and faecal coliform was 95%, 57%, respectively. The chemical parameters exceed the standards by different percentages (calcium 47%, magnesium 32%), other parameters give results below the maximum contaminant levels. Sources of pollution of these cisterns were studied also by a questionnaire answered by the owner of the cistern. 120 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Following decades of feeble struggles in the quest of attaining sustainable democratic governance architectures across Africa, the book argues that amidst challenges posed by military coups, ethnicity, rent seeking and patronage as… an anecdote to political instability, West Africa has made reasonable progress with six (6) countries characterized as fully democratic, Five (5) countries in the Final Phase, and Four (5) countries characterized as hybrid regimes. Whilst this reasoning is based on the current realities of political transformations in the sub-region, it attributes political instability in the sub-region to failed policies of the first post colonial leaders and their pluralist-coercive multiparty totalitarian rule, institutional failures, coups, conflicts and civil wars as daunting challenges to democracy in the sub-region. Consequently it combines scholarly literature to realities of the sub-regions political trajectories, bringing to light current democratic successes and challenges ahead. 120 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Panchayats for years have been the milestone for decentralization initiatives in West Bengal, India and also the state's penchant towards grassroots democracy. For a state experiencing financial crunch, devolution of financial and…fiscal autonomy to the local governments had been the envisaged drive no doubt. For the overburdened state health system, sharing of responsibility by the Panchayats through public health expenditures made out of local revenue collected could have been a way out. Results also show that wherever the Panchayats have acted, the overall health situation (and also quality of life) has improved. But although they have much to do, and quite a scope, are they ready to make a paradigm shift from physical assets to quality of life Their own fiscal health in general, their motivation to generate revenue on their own, and their capacity to act according to the local situation (without directives from upper tiers), and also their priority towards tangible assets that would at the end of the day earn them the vote-bank seem to speak otherwise. The analysis should help to comprehend the pitfalls and perils of development through decentralization. 76 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -All governmental and industrial organizations have personnel in positions of authority. Most are assumed, by their positions, to have good leadership skills and follow principled leadership practices as they are considered fundamen…tal skills of successful leadership. Within the past 50 years, changes in the social and political landscape throughout the United States have spurred numerous transformations in the approach to how leadership is not only implemented, but fundamentally defined. The most recent failure in leadership is displayed by both Government and Industry in the recent Gulf Coast catastrophic oil spill. The question to be answered does not give the impression to be one of capability, but rather culpability. Is true ethics based leadership being subjugated if not replaced by political expediency This book provides a simple process for defining what is good leadership, what is political expediency and how these tendencies can be identified. For anyone, leader, manager or just the curious, this book provides an opportunity for reflection as well as analysis. 80 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This work analyses the gaps between the principle and the practice of human rights, using the study case of indigenous women in Mexico. The point of departure is international jurisprudence; here failures in human rights mainstream… to encompass indigenous women's experiences are highlighted; since indigenous women are not accurately portrayed as right holders. The role of indigenous peoples' and women's human rights instruments is crucial for the analysis. The obstacles for effective implementation of indigenous women's human rights at State, local and municipal levels are discussed. Mexican public policies are revised; the argument sustained is that these policies are inaccurate to tackle indigenous women's issues. The role of NGOs and grassroots groups' is also stressed. It is argued that indigenous women are setting their human rights claims in alliance with indigenous peoples' movements to profit of the momentum they have at the national and international arenas. Lastly, this work enhances potential contributions to human rights jurisprudence and develops a proposal of creating an indigenous women's movement to improve particular concerns. 80 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Combining a variety of sources, the present study attempts to question our understanding of corruption in an African country, and examines some of the issues raised by current anti-corruption policies. As such, this paper will prov…ide a survey of selected research on corruption, to create a relevant theoretical framework for a case study. Through the analysis of country specific information, empirical and theoretical models from economical, political and sociological perspectives, as well as anti-corruption strategies and reform programmes will be put in context and assessed. The case study focuses on Uganda. Often cited as a model in the fight against corruption, Uganda's record remains ambiguous: considered a success by the World Bank (WB) and the International Monetary Fund (IMF), although it has experienced an average annual growth of 7.2 % over the 1990 1999 period, Uganda continues to be perceived amongst the most corrupt countries in the world.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The book documents the Inter-District disparity in terms of social development in Balochistan, which is the largest federation unit of Pakistan covering about 45% of the total country's area and is the least developed province in t…he country. The work focuses on objective well-being by taking indicators from education, health, and quality of living sectors to rank order the districts and identify the significant factors of inter-district disparity. The books reports that Quetta, which is the capital city is the only highly developed district and Musa Khel continues to be the most backward district in the Province. However, over short period of time moderately and under developed districts altered their position either upward or downward direction. Moreover, inter-district disparity is significantly reduced in quality of living as a whole, while primary enrollment male, child immunization, and sanitation facilities are the other significant factors of inter-district disparity reduction. However, this disparity has increased in terms of medical professionals (Doctors, nurses, midwives etc). 116 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Northern Uganda has suffered violent conflict that has devastated the social fabric of the region. The conflict between the National Resistance Movement and the Lord's Resistance Army has eluded numerous attempts to resolve it. The… Juba peace talks that run between 2006 to 2008 presented an opportunity to end the conflict, but both parties failed to endorse the final agreement. This book provides an analysis of the reasons for the failed talks, the role played by the different actors, and the impact they had on the final outcome. Neema challenges the assumption that one conflict resolution model fits all conflict contexts, and argues that sufficient time be devoted to a thorough assessment of the best conflict resolution mode to bring about a sustainable resolution to a given conflict. The analysis points to the need to understand the unique nature of each complex political emergency as an essential tool if we are to move towards lasting peace agreements. This book is intended to form the basis for empirical research and act as a guide for policy makers in the betterment of current and further efforts of resolve conflicts of this nature. 108 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Organizational misbehaviour has long been recognized as workers' attempt to redress the balance of control and power in the workplace. The advent of the computer, particularly the internet, raised hopes of increased productivity bu…t it also raised questions of ethical use in the workplace as it has huge potential for damage to fellow employee, the employer and the organization. Although it is a relatively new concept, data reveals the staggering lengths to which internet abuse has extended and the accompanying financial losses. This book examines the extent to which this phenomenon exists among public sector workers in St.Vincent and the Grenadines. It explores literature related to organizational misbehaviour with emphasis on internet abuse. It also examines data collected from the specified population. It then draws upon data collected to arrive at conclusions and formulate a proposed Internet Use Policy that could be used to control these activities and reduce the negative impacts they can have. The information could prove very useful to students and lecturers of management and organizational behaviour as well as employers who are trying to cope with the identified phenomenon. 80 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The Black-Scholes model was a revelation and took a large step forward in terms of mathematical application in quantitative finance. An empirical trait is that the model has generally been used by practitioners in an ad-hoc fashion…. This may explain why actual option prices have rarely converged to respective Black-Scholes estimates. Empirical options research has highlighted systematic biases within the model and has attempted to correct for these by proposing models that offer greater consistency in both internal processes and pricing performance. In this thesis, we explore the fundamental reasons for failure in the Black-Scholes and analyse the benefit of augmenting the model for processes that may be more consistent with the real world. We place emphasis on consistency between the option-implicit distribution of the underlying asset and the actual implicit distribution of the underlying asset. Using a three year FTSE 100 option dataset, we quantitatively examine the pricing consistency and reliability of such augmented models. 60 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Thailand and Brazil have similarly employed the methods of an 'activist state' in attempting to provide free, universal access to antiretroviral medication to their citizens. While a specific alignment of social, political, and eco…nomic factors in Brazil enabled a description of its mode of medical activism as a 'tool of new democratic politics and ethics,' the divergent nature of these forces in Thailand problematize not only the extension of this description to Thai AIDS activism, but also the relationship between democracy and 'biological citizenship.' Through ethical processes of legitimation and delegitimation, a complex web of actors and technologies mediates Thailand's ability to alter the global therapeutic economy of pharmaceuticals and redraw lines of political power. This work, which argues for greater specificity in describing and legitimating new biopolitical forms, should be of particular interest to scholars of political and pharmaceutical anthropology as well as those concerned with the achievement of human rights in this key moment of neoliberal globalization. 64 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Despite accreditations and others quality systems, health care organizations are currently facing significant challenges to overcome the recurrence of medication and medical errors and other deaths and costs associated with. In ord…er to improve the management systems, thus reducing these medication and medical errors, health care leaders started to look for other process management tools like ISO 9000 Quality management System. Subjective studies suggest that ISO 9000 can help organizations improve their management practices. Others argue the standard is too generic to generate performance improvement in service industry, such as health care. This book, therefore, analyzed the effectiveness of the ISO 9000 certification and tested whether earning ISO 9000 certification leads to improvement in quality management practices, in medication management practices, and in organizational management system in pharmacy hospital. The analysis should help make an important contribution to the existing literature on reducing the medication and medical errors in health care; and should help understand the factors that impede successful implementation of ISO 9000 QMS in the health. 116 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Since the late 1980s, Uganda just like many Sub-Saharan African countries embraced decentralization as one of the pillars for poverty reduction. It was perceived that decentralization would promote efficiency, effectiveness, respon…siveness, accountability, participation, empowerment, service delivery and poverty reduction. However, despite this perception, over 85% of Uganda's population lives under absolute poverty which exposes them to food, health as well as physical insecurities. The findings show that decentralization has relatively contributed to education and health sectors although poverty remains high especially due to unemployment among the youth. Decentralized service delivery has given room for corruption in most sectors of the economy. The research found that most national development programs do not clearly integrate a Human Security component in addressing poverty. It is therefore unlikely to reduce poverty if Human Security is not clearly streamlined in all development programs. The research recommends the need for government to continuously build the capacity of the people to demand for accountability and veto leaders who are not performing to their expectations. 96 pp. Englisch.

This book argues that the possibility for conflict resolution depends on our definition of peace, on the applicatio…n of suitable methods and by adopting an appropriate approach to every specific conflict. This book presents the main critique of current peacebuilding practice and proposes recommendations for a new peacebuilding paradigm. Three case studies on Mozambique, Somalia and Burundi highlight that there is a possible correlation between the signing of a peace agreement, an adequate peacebuilding response and lasting peace. However, the United Nations Peacebuildning Commission is still at an initial stage and it is far too soon to evaluate the outcome of its work. Nevertheless, it could be argued that the United Nations Peacebuilding Commission shows some indicators on moving focus towards conflict prevention. It therefore has the potential to present valuable insight for a peacebuilding response that actually can aim at promoting lasting peace. 92 pp. Englisch.
