Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -Global sustainable development discourse comprises two sub-discourses; the Earth and Equity. It argues that sustainability on Earth will be attained when equity between human beings and the environment, and between developed and developing countries, take place. Economic development is seen… as a means to accomplishing these two concepts of equity. Differently, grassroots farmers in northern Thailand define sustainability as 'having rice to eat and having land on which to stay'. However, as the farmers have experienced developmental problems introduced to the community by outsiders, namely government development policies, they view that in order to attain sustainability, the villagers themselves have to have control over development direction. This control consists of control over agricultural production and food supply, land and forest management, and knowledge used in development processes. To have control, power to negotiate with the state development direction is required, and this power will be gained through strengthened people's organisations and networks.

Neuware -This research explored colour effects on branding between industrial sectors, and semantic meanings of logo colours via the methodologies of physical and psychological methods. Provided methodology and practical guidelines for logo colour design, and the impacts of culture on logos colour p…reference. The study of comparisons indicated that the most frequently used logo colour for both UK and Japan companies was blue, followed by white, red and black, whereas the least frequently used colour was brown. Red and black were more frequently used for logos in Japan than in the UK, white was more frequently used in the UK than in Japan. The psychophysical experiments provided an evidence that logo colour was strongly associated with industrial sector and with semantic meaning. Furthermore, new guidelines for logo colour design were developed to consider the relationships between colour, semantic meaning and industrial sector.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The stability of money demand is important for ensuring that money in the economy is predictable and is related to a set of key economic variables linking money and the real sector. This book presents a case for the stability of mo…ney demand in Namibia by employing various econometric tests. The objectives of which are three-fold. Firstly, it tries to look at the stability of both M1 and M2. Secondly, it tries to investigate further, as to which of the two measures is more stable. Thirdly, it also tries to determine the relationship between money demand and nominal variables, such as income, CPI, exchange rate and interest rate. This book provides a careful analysis on the stability of money demand and should thus shed more light on the stability of money demand in the Namibian context which is itself critical in the formulation of monetary policy for Namibia. The analysis should be useful to Central Bank professionals and Economists including those interested in issues relating to money demand. 84 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -International relations theory has for a long been a source of quarrel over methodological positions. The debate history versus science epitomised the state of the IR discipline in defining its identity alongside other human scienc…es. However, the adoption of positivistic method by IR scholars paved the way to explaining political occurrences through the principle of empirical observation, testing and verification. Nonetheless, against this monistic view of science, this research argues for a scientific realist stance, wherein unobservable generative mechanisms and causal structures of the observed events constitute the real furniture of the world to be explained and changed by conscious human actions. Hence, the possibility of IR as a scientific subject depends upon an understanding of science as a social project looking to identify and shed light on the structures and processes that cause events. 64 pp. Englisch.

Happiness and quality of life should not be a question; it should be a requirement for long-term care facilities to provide. This thesi…s presents the media coverage of the Green House Project which is a fairly new concept that radically redesigns the nursing home experience. Green Houses are small self- sufficient homes built to offer elders the opportunity to live out their remaining years in a place that they feel comfortable calling home as opposed to an industrialized facility that feels like a hospital. This concept is just beginning to grow and will only become more popular to the masses as it continues to receive more media coverage. 60 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This book presents a cross-sectional study (undertaken at the College of Public Health Sciences, Chulalungkorn University) of HIV/AIDS Risk Behaviors among Myanmar Migrants in Bangkok s Khao San Road tourism area. Quantitative anal…ysis using chi-square test, odds ratio and 95% confidence interval were used to describe associations between variables from the sample gathered using the snow ball technique. A major high risk profile for HIV/AIDS among Myanmar migrants emerged within the study, the undereducated 25-29 year old blue collar worker with moderate knowledge of HIV/AIDS. Associations between socio-demographic factors, HIV/AIDS knowledge and the risk behaviors: visiting sex workers, alcohol consumption and drug use were analyzed and presented in this particular study. Based on the risk behaviors studied, the author recommends behavior change intervention in the form of increased access to health education among migrants and that further reaffirmation of this study s findings be conducted through a broader longitudinal study on sexual attitudes and behavior of migrants. 80 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Physical activity has been shown to play a pivotal role in decreasing risk of diseases including many cancers. However, there is limited data supporting its relationship with ovarian cancer. A systematic review was undertaken to ac…curately summarise the change in risk of ovarian cancer with different activity levels. This interim report presents the conceptual issues central to the above study along with a narrative analysis on the trials included in the review. A rigorous procedure was implemented to locate and appraise relevant literature. Selection criteria were applied to the studies located and data was extracted from the eligible studies. 17 papers representing a total of 14 different observational studies met the selection criteria and were included in the review. Overall, more case-control studies than cohorts demonstrated a statistically significant inverse relationship between physical activity and ovarian cancer and seven studies found a significant dose- response. The limited data available are indicative of an inverse association between physical activity and ovarian cancer risk. 92 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Customer loyalty as an applied concept is a critical strategic option in today's competitve environment. Managers and researchers have therefore increased their study and understanding of the concept as a strategic marketing impera…tive to capture market share and improve profitability. The theoretical perspective is that service quality, competitive pricing as well as company image and reputation contribute to customer satisfaction and that service quality along a number of pathways drives customer loyalty and profitability of the firm. We investigated empirically the relative importance of these factors in driving customer loyalty and profitability by analysing perspectives of retail customers of Ghana's banking Industry. Our study reveals among others that whilst service quality and bank image and reputation are important drivers of customer satisfaction and loyalty, competitive pricing showed weak linear relationship with customer satisfaction and loyalty. Finally, we discussed the management implications of our study. This book should be especially useful to academics, students as well as marketing and strategy professionals. 84 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This paper aims at assessing a potential relationship between natural resource abundance and income inequality. Using existing theories on the natural resource curse, three implications for income inequality are derived and empiric…ally tested. The results of the empirical analysis suggest that there exist a fairly strong relationship between the variables of interest. This is especially true for some 'point resources', such as metals and ores, while more diffuse resources such as agricultural products seem to have no effect. The findings apply for actual levels of income inequality and resource dependency as well as (but to a lesser extent) for changes in income inequality and resource dependency. 60 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The aim of this study was to compare Finnish and Russian communication patterns in corporate situations, to find out whether these manners are different, and to demonstrate practical examples of possible differences. Nowadays due t…o the globalization process intercultural communication plays crucial role in business sustainability. Many researchers put their efforts into investigating the communication patterns of Finnish and Russian cultures during the negotiation process. However, there will never be enough knowledge about the similarity and diversity between different countries. This is due to the fact that any present knowledge becomes outdated as a result of a continuous adaptation process within a culture to changes in current global conditions. The main results of the study show that there are obvious differences in corporate communication patterns between the two investigated cultures. These differences make the intercultural negotiation process more challenging and demanding, but at the same time curious and interesting. 68 pp. Englisch.

Bush's leadership forms a coherent set of principles that can be called the Bush Doctrine. Four pillars of the Doctrine are identified and exam…ined in detail: preventive war and war on terrorism, selective multilateralism, democratization and human dignity, and the maintenance of American military primacy. It is claimed then that the four pillars constitute a significant threat to the conduct of international relations based on rule of international law and institutions as well as do not promote the American foreign interests in long-run. The theoretical part of the work includes discussion of Realism and Liberal Internationalism as the main competing international relations theories. A conclusion is reached in favour of the Liberal Internationalist school of thought as forming more desirable and appropriate basis of the international order. 60 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The advent of free-access to ARV-treatment in South Africa has been a signifier of hope amongst fellow South Africans. This hope has in effect led to the government s assumption that the disclosure of an HIV/AIDS-infected status wo…uld be easier due to the treatment s effectiveness. Disclosing an HIV/AIDS-infected status to fellow residents, has for this reason been made a policy in accessing ARV-treatment. Using a purposive sample of 10 HIV-positive women on ARV- treatment drawn from a township HIV/AIDS-voluntary organization who varied in age, this book examines the psychological challenges associated with disclosing an HIV/AIDS-infected status to a fellow resident/s and the possible impact that such challenges have on ARV-treatment adherence. 80 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Contemporary regeneration policy is often concerned with the re-branding of the city, for residents, tourists and investors. Recently in the UK, an increasing focus has been placed on the role of culture in regeneration, but this h…as mainly been framed in the context of social and economic renewal. The absence of cultural theory from regeneration debates mirrors its lack of engagement with the political process in the UK and this theory-gap has important implications for the effects of regeneration strategies on communities. The work of city-branding in regeneration is primarily concerned with representation and imagination. The work of Derrida and Baudrillard is used in this book to critique the re-imagining of the city in cultural regeneration strategies. The conclusions of this body of post-structuralist thought cast doubt on the whole process of city- branding, but developments in the field of Cultural Planning provide a unique opportunity to join theory and praxis by viewing culture as a resource in the regeneration process and by engaging communities through their cultural practices. 60 pp. Englisch.

This book presents an ethnography of the rapidly changing institution of marriage among two of the largest n…ationalities found in Uganda. The introduction of modernizing influences more than a century ago has resulted in changing many aspects of the way people lead their lives. The kwandhula ceremony as part of culture has not been spared from evolution as due to external influences. This book presents the kwandhula process and shows how it has changed over time. It takes readers through the process showing the main actors are during the kwandhula ceremony. The methodology is unstructured, qualitative and this is an insider's insight of what occurs during an introduction or marriage ceremony among the said societies. It is a narrative and interpretative discussion of this institution which has a lot of bearing on family and kinship life of the said societies. Sociologists, social anthropologists and other social scientists interested in the marriage institution in Africa should find the book useful. 76 pp. Englisch.

But this should not let us miss the degree to which European questions are still centre stage in international relations…and of importance for Australia. The purpose of this paper is to consider the importance of Europe to Australia particularly in context of the Asia crisis that raised many economic fears within the region. Should Australia re-evaluate its position towards a balanced global outlook that will promote diversity in trading. Would this protect the country from external trading shocks. Australians were told that failure to internationalise and restructure the economy would lead to its decline.Growing economic interdependence with Asia was an important feature of globalisation and part of the governments strategy to secure Australias economic future. In the 1980s a number of steps were taken to liberalise the economy the phasing out Australias tariff protections began in 1991. This paper will demonstrate Australias interest in Europe allowed greater diversity that produced economic stability and prosperity especially at time of crisis. 96 pp. Englisch.
