Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -The combination of organizational resources and capabilities needs to be developed, deployed and protected in order to enhance organizational performance. The performance among organizations differs as a result of their different knowledge bases and differing capabilities in developing and deploying organizational knowledge. The attention is focused on the implicit knowledge and skills required to co-ordinate heterogeneous resources in distinct, organization-specific resource bundles in such a way that current capabilities are leveraged and new capabilities are created. The development of a new product and service is an example of an organization attaining a competitive advantage resulting from learning processes that have been incurred with the integration of knowledge management processes and organizational assets. The trend for knowledge-based organizations is to move towards knowledge adaptation where knowledge serves two vital functions within an organization, acting as resources for organizational growth, and providing valuable assets for organizational survival.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 92 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -On January 1, 2004¿exactly a decade after the North American Free Trade Agreement went into force¿the United States¿Chile Free Trade Agreement (US-CFTA) became effective. Using NAFTA as a model, the agreement established a gradual reduction in tariffs and non-tariff barriers, with the finally intention of eliminating tariffs on substantially all trade among the members. More than 90% of the trade in 'originating goods' between the U.S. and Chile became duty free immediately after the agreement went into force. Furthermore, trade in 'originating goods' will be, as of January 2016, duty free for most products between these two countries. As it was in NAFTA negotiations, one of the biggest concerns that the U.S. had was that the benefits of the creation of the free trade agreement would be confined to trade among the United States and Chile. To accomplish this goal, the parties created comprehensive rules of origin, meaning a group of norms which object is to determine where a good has been produced. The determination of the country of origin of a particular good is becoming more important than ever before. Since many trade regulations¿including preferential tariff treatmentBooks on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 76 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -This book examines the approach to the federation of the East African states. It compares the neo-functional fast-tracking employed by the revived East African Community, EAC (1990) with the traditional functionalist approach that was employed by the now-defunct first East African Community (1967-1977). An indepth discourse of the fast-tracking of the political federation clarifies the main difference between the two. A detailed study of the administrative structure of the community further illuminates the decision-making mechanism of the new EAC as an indication of the approach employed. The author points out lessons from the defunct EAC that should be enhanced to solidify the neo-functional attempts of the revived community while highlighting the pitfalls that led to the latter''s downfall that should guide the current endeavors. The book analyzes paradigms that have been employed elsewhere and reflects on East Africa''s selection, could we have done better Finally, the author ventures into the minds of the East African people and wonders if they are ready for political federation, especially on a fast-track lane.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 64 pp. Englisch.

Neuware -This research is on the positive and negative aspects of Unilever''s Shakti-project, a prime example of marketing to the ¿Bottom of the Pyramid'' as put forward by C.K. Prahalad (2006). Poor rural Indian women are recruited to become small-scale entrepreneurs by Hindustan Lever, the Indian subsidiary of the Anglo-Dutch multinational Unilever.

Neuware -Taking the 1980s as a reference point, this study focuses on the network of relationships between publishers, translations in the social sciences and culture planning in Turkey. The analyses it presents are based on interviews held with nine publishing houses that were set up in the 1980s, in the aftermath of the military coup on September 12, 1980, which had significant political, social, and cultural impacts.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -International volunteerism is a growing phenomenon and more and more individuals are enthused to take part in volunteer programmes abroad. At the same time, volunteering is widely promoted as an urgent intervention to combat social problems in the receiving countries, problems such as poverty, inequality, hunger and diseases. Based on the widespread assumption that there is a growing need for volunteers, the present study discusses international volunteering in educational institutions in Cape Town. The study examines two programmes in Cape Town offered to international volunteers, presents the positive and negative outcomes of these programmes and analyses their value for all parties concerned. The data gathered during eight weeks of fieldwork resulted in many positive responses from both sides which, in turn, were significant indicators of the success of the programmes. However, existing power relations between so-called First and Third World countries are often reproduced in such programmes since they are predominantly offered in 'Third World' countries. Even though power relations may be reproduced, the study highlights the benefits of international volunteering in Cape Town.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 100 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -Developing countries heavily depend on export earnings to satisfy their import requirements. Ethiopian export, like many other developing countries, is concentrated into few primary products that are mainly agricultural. Studies suggest that such commodity concentration could result in fluctuation of export proceeds, which in turn will affect growth and capital formation of the country. In this book Ethiopia''s export earnings instability is analyzed by employing country specific model using a sufficiently large time-series data covering the period 1962 to 2008. The contribution of the major agricultural export commodities of the country to the instability have been identified. The book also attempts to compare the three different socio-political periods of the country within this period. The book helps shed some light on the policy formulation regarding export diversification.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 76 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -During 2002 and early 2003 the international debate over Iraq became a major topic throughout the world. The debate became contentious, splitting long standing allies between those who supported the military option against Iraq and those who did not. The United States was at the forefront of the military option movement, while Germany was the leader of the anti-war movement. In Germany massive protests against the war occurred weekly. Many Germans recalled their own history of war to justify their opposition to any military action against Iraq. To compound the issue even further was the fact Germany in the fall of 2002 was holding national elections and re-election of the ruling government appeared bleak. The ruling parties in Germany tapped into the anti-war movement and in the process used personal attacks against President Bush to win political points. The dispute over Iraq severely strained and tested German and American relations. The intent of this thesis is to understand the nature of German opposition and to determine if the previously stated explanations fit the case of German opposition.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 92 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -The aim of this study is to compare the performance of the four interest rate models (Vasicek Model, Cox Ingersoll Ross Model, Ho Lee Model and Black Derman Toy Model) that are commonly used in pricing zero coupon bond options. In this study, 1-5 years US Treasury Bond daily data between the dates June 1, 1976 and December 31, 2009 are used. By using the four interest rate models, estimated option prices are compared with the real observed prices for the begining work days of each months of the years 2007 and 2008. The models are then evaluated according to the sum of squared errors. Option prices are found by constructing interest rate trees for the binomial models based on Ho Lee Model and Black Derman Toy Model and by estimating the parameters for the Vasicek and the Cox Ingersoll Ross Models.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 100 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -Forest is one of the key word or construct of development discourse and recently, in 1992, it has been incorporated in Agenda 21 of Earth Summit where the participation and rights of indigenous people, particularly women, has been emphasised and gender equality has been discursively ensured. With the objective of showing the discrepancies between the statements and actual effect of the policy, following the field investigation this study has found that gender relations prevailing in CHT have been negatively affected following the implementation of the policy and this effect has been intersecting with age, socio-economic status and gender. The outcome was such that the socio- economic gap between different groups within the indigenous community has widened; women, particularly the poor became poorer; old women lost their assets and became subject to the mercy of household members. All in all, development policy instead of developing the indigenous people, it worsened their living conditions, widened the socio- economic gaps and narrowed the bargaining power of women.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 76 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -The print market has been rapidly growing and setting price records. Art prints form a separate and independent segment of art market. Prints are produced in multiples where each peace forms an original work of art, making them highly collectible and simultaneously highly attractive for unscrupulous traders. From the legal point of view art prints is a threshold sphere which stands on the border of copyright law and consumer protection law. Neither of these fields of law provide full coverage and satisfactory regulation of fine art multiples in Europe. Increasing amount of unfair commercial practices of art dealers has formed a basis for such deep research and analysis of current legislative situation in the sphere of fine art prints. The author shows that there exists the need for more precise regulation in Europe and as a logical consequence the Draft Directive is proposed. The analysis should be helpful for art market practitioners, as well as especially useful to collectors, occasional buyers, or anyone else who may be considering making luxurious and beneficial investment in fine art prints.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 100 pp. Englisch.

However, there are common characteristics between the firms, the studied enterprises cannot be generalized. The three entrepreneurs are unique and have special values within their own local networks. Even though the entrepreneurs do not consider themselves green activists, observation shows their interests to be environmental entrepreneurs. The analysis could be helpful for those who study networking and should be especially useful to professionals investigating local alternative agri-food networks and organic food production.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 84 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -This dissertation investigates the causes and consequences of the goodwill reporting choices made by Canadian firms following the adoption of revised standards on purchased goodwill in 2002. First, I show that transitional goodwill impairment losses are associated with managers' incentives to both overstate and understate them. Furthermore, independent board of directors and audit committees act as a constraint on Canadian managers' goodwill reporting choices to ensure that the economic value of goodwill is better reflected in financial statements. Second, I show that investors perceive goodwill as an asset, and goodwill impairment losses as sufficiently reliable measurements of a reduction in the value of goodwill to incorporate them in their valuation assessments. Finally, I show that transitional goodwill impairment losses were impounded in stock prices prior to 2002. Overall, the empirical evidence contained in the dissertation is consistent with SFAS 142/Section 3062 improving the quality of the financial information on goodwill provided in the financial statements.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 92 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -Repatriation adjustment is widely researched in developed countries. This study intended to contribute to the Malaysian literature pertaining to this subject. The purpose of this study is to determine the impact of individual variable (self- efficacy), job variables role clarity, role conflict, role discretion, and role novelty), organizational variable (social support), and non- work variable (culture novelty) on the three dimensions of repatriation adjustment psychological well-being, socio-cultural adjustment, and work adjustment). Data were collected from 104 Malaysian repatriates. It was found that external self- efficacy impacted on psychological well-being and work adjustment. In relationship between job variables with repatriation adjustment, only role conflict showed a negative relationship with psychological well-being. However, the present study was not able to support the relationship between social support and repatriation adjustment. For the non-work variable, it was found that only culture novelty--basic elements, had a negative relationship with psychological well-being.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 60 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -A considerable number of studies on historical and some third world populations have reached a magnificent consensus that both mortality and fertility do respond to economic changes in a surprisingly shared pattern. Such response, however, remains a great deal of controversy, obscure and inconsistency in the secular industrialized countries. As a result, a great variety of alternative hypotheses have been developed to account for the secular decline in mortality and fertility. While there is widespread interest in this subject with particular focus on short-term fluctuations, I further study the impact of severe economic crises on these demographic variables.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 76 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -The growth of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in developing countries have been challenged mainly by the widening development disparity between urban and rural areas. There is little awareness of the actual rural needs or the problems facing rural SMEs, as policies are pre-occupied with urban issues. To mitigate the urban-rural development disparity, an understanding of the actual needs of rural areas is critical. This understanding is particularly important as initial steps in promoting electronic commerce (e-Commerce), a technology that can help to foster economic development, particularly in rural areas. It was the aim of this study to examine how e- Commerce is being adopted by SMEs ¿ or issues that inhibit them to adopt ¿ by comparing the situation in urban versus rural areas in developing countries, with Indonesia as case study. The results of this study indicate that the urban and rural Indonesian SME sector is far from homogeneous. A set of implications of policy was formulated to assist Indonesian Government and other government in developed and developing countries to promote the adoption and use of e-Commerce by urban and rural SMEs.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 384 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -This study gives a global summary of the evolution of telephones and economic development around the world, with an interdisciplinary approach based on three major dimensions: a time dimension (from the past to the future), a space dimension (different countries and regions) and a focus dimension (both telephones and economic growth). The analysis uses historical telephone data for 41 major countries over the complete period from 1900 to 2000. A comparative time series analysis is performed using telephone statistics and economic growth as measured in terms of GDP. The analysis shows that, besides the very high correlation between telephones and economic development, there is no general trend for the Granger causality among all countries or regions. Finally, the growth models of mobile telephones and Internet are also considered, even if they do not follow the same patterns of earlier fixed telephones and telegraphs. The mobile telephones in the 21st century are quickly complementing and substituting the old fixed landline telephones of the 20th century, bringing cheaper, faster, better and more efficient ways to communicate in our now interconnected world.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 296 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -This study explores several western feminist theories that have been applied to African women, and demonstrates how Clenora Hudson-Weems''s theory of Africana Womanism has its basis in African culture instead of the more commonly used western one. It also examines Chela Sandoval''s 'Methodology of the Oppressed,' in order to address postmodern power structure and methods of resistance. It suggests a combination of Clenora Hudson-Weems''s Africana Womanism and Chela Sandoval''s postmodern 'Methodology of the Oppressed,' for which it proposes the designation, Postmodern Africana Womanism. With that as a tool, this work explores the following novels: Yvonne Vera''s Butterfly Burning, Mariama Bâ''s Scarlet Song, and Ng¿g¿ wa Thiong''o''s Devil on the Cross. The aim is to examine the new power dynamics in Africa, and how the failure to recognize, or belated recognition, of them leads the main female characters to tragic ends. Central to the argument is the dissolution of traditional African cultures and the effects of western culture in the African context.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 64 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -Jean-Paul Sartre was ¿The Father of Modern Existentialism''and his theories are highly regarded in academic debate. What is neglected by many studies on Sartre however is the contribution he made to journalism (particularly public/civic journalism)for a period in his remarkable life. For three decades,Sartre held a prestigious position in the intellectual world and his political and social printed commentaries were received internationally for discussion. A fascinating thinker and writer,he wrote on every world crisis between the 1940''s and 1970''s - all critically analysed through his monthly journal, Les Temps Modernes, or other large publications. As such, it can be noted that he was one of the early believers in a methodological public journalism to be used to better politics and society. He left behind some valuable techniques for social analysis and he embodied a spirit that always wished better for humanity. The argument of this study is that Sartre was an excellent example of civic journalism in action. He intuitively grasped the concept and power of the platform and his existentialism was an invaluable tool to his method of civic writing.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 100 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -This paper examines the ability of the yield curve to predict recessions in South Africa, and compares its predictive power with other commonly used variables that include the growth rate in real money supply, changes in stock prices and the index of leading economic indicators. The study also makes an attempt to find out if monetary policy explains the yield spread¿s predictive power with regards to future economic activity. Regarding methodology, the standard probit model proposed by Estrella and Mishkin (1996) that directly estimates the probability of the economy going into recession is used. Results from this model are compared with a modified probit model suggested by Dueker (1997) that includes a lagged dependent variable. Results presented in the paper provide further evidence that the yield curve, as represented by the yield spread between 3-month and 10-year government paper, can be used to estimate the likelihood of recessions in South Africa. The yield spread can produce recession forecasts up to 18 months, although it''s best predictive power is seen at two quarters.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 112 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -The World has become so much smaller than it was in the middle of the 20th century that the distinction between 'domestic' and 'international' marketing has become irrelevant. No practitioner of marketing who has a website ¿whether a veteran or a new graduate- is sheltered from becoming 'global' by virtue of the appropriately called World-Wide Web. A Home Page is a window open to everybody, anywhere. The Web is the culmination of a process of rapid advances in worldwide communication and transportation. Academias, authors and businesses are rushing to prepare the 21st century marketers to handle the technological aspects of this revolution. Few, however, are addressing the fact that the discipline of Marketing itself, as it used to be taught (The Marketing Mix, a.k.a 'The Four P¿s', etc.), needs to change to reflect that going 'global' adds a new dimension which elements change in every country or market and are totally outside the control of the marketer (Economy, Geography, Culture and the Law), hence this book¿s theme ('Two-Dimensional Marketing').Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 92 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -The choice of staffing levels is a decision faced by virtually every organization. When making this decision for a complex system, what methodology can be employed And can theory guide the decisions This book describes the staffing level analysis for a company''s product inspection process¿a complex tandem queue with machines or operators working in parallel at each station, dynamic interaction between the inspection rates at two of the stations, and stochastic arrivals of the items to be inspected. The minimum staffing levels for various product volumes need to be determined to ensure a reliable inspection system with nearly-zero probability of system congestion. Both simulation modeling and queuing theory approximation are applied to the analysis. The critical topology of the queuing system, the nature of the problem, and the methodology for their solution are portable to other environments. The methodology in this study should be useful to practitioners who are considering improving the operations of their service or production systems through capacity planning, and also be of interest to researchers in the field of service operations.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 52 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -The distinctive features of inflation targeting include the publishing of the formal target band or point target for the rate of inflation at one or more time horizon/s and the explicit confirmation that low and steady inflation is the long-run objective of monetary policy. There are four main preconditions of inflation targeting: 1) an independent central bank that is free from fiscal and political pressures; 2) a central bank that has both the ability to forecast inflation and the capability to model inflation data; 3) the presence of fully deregulated prices and an economy that is affected by changes of commodity prices, as well as exchange rates; and 4) the presence of sound banking system and well developed capital markets. This dissertation investigates the extent to which Malawi meets the preconditions for inflation targeting. Malawi is committed to the central bank''s functional independence as well as the pursuit of prudent fiscal policy measures for the attainment of low inflation. Despite the failure to meet all the preconditions, this study recommends that Malawi should adopt an inflation-targeting framework.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 100 pp. Englisch.

It is shown that these two regimes of responsibility are distinct and differ from each other, but it does not mean that they never overlap.In crime of genocide individual responsibility is essential, because this internationally wrongful act is committed by man and only attributing this act to the state can be invoked states responsibility. Based on the genocide case (Serbia v. Bosnia) before the ICJ it will be shown what kind of problems are related to the state responsibility for genocide. Main attention will be paid to the problems of attributing act of individuals to the state. Grounds for invoking state responsibility for genocide, which are in case law of ICTR and ICTY will prove that danger of replacing state responsibility by individual liability does not exist. The analysis will show that there should be paid more attention on state responsibility for Genocide. The book will be useful people interested in International Criminal Law,especially in Genocide and in responsibility of individuals and states for this crime.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 84 pp. Englisch.
