Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The devaluation of money (inflation), influences the wealth of any individual. Some streams of income, like for example salaries, are protected against inflation by a contract. Financial investments however, are not. The risk of inflation is therefore regarded as one of the main sources of systematic investment risk on a national level, but increasingly also on an international level. In this study, the long-term inflation protection of residential real estate compared to bonds and stocks is investigated. The relation between the nominal returns and both the expected and unexpected inflation for sixteen member countries of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) is examined. The unique dataset which is available for this study, makes an international comparison both possible and meaningful. The results are especially useful for professionals in real estate finance or investment, but shed a light on the exposure of individual households as wel. 96 pp. Englisch.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Chapter 1 sets out the background to enterprise- wide risk management (EWRM). Chapter 2 examines literature on EWRM and Chapter 3 assesses key theoretical approaches to EWRM. Chapter 4 sets out the research design while Chapter 5 presents and discusses the results of an empirical investigation which explores the views of 16 Chief Executive Officers drawn from 16 Zimbabwean short- term insurance companies. Research evidence shows that whilst risk awareness seems good in most Zimbabwean short-term insurance companies, a significantly lower number take adequate measures to reduce risks to their lowest practical levels. It might be suggested that the Zimbabwean short-term insurance industry has limited capabilities to consistently identify, measure and manage risk exposures across the company and thereby limit exposures. Execution of EWRM is sporadic and losses have not been limited in accordance with predetermined risk tolerance guidelines. Therefore, the Zimbabwean short-term insurance industry might be viewed as having weak EWRM. Therefore this research provides a wide range of recommendations to address the identified weaknesses. 80 pp. Englisch.…

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Discriminatiom and abuse against people with disabilities is an old age phenomenon affecting almost every nation. Policy interventions and awareness campaigns by national governments, human rights groups and the United Nations, though successful to a certain extent, have not eliminated the stigma and prejudice against disabled people. Their cries to be recognized as human beings have been heard but unheeded. Cultural beliefs that associate disability with abnormality have pushed disabled people out of the mainstream society, and despite good intentions for the recognition of their rights, they continue to encounter social barriers as a result of cultural stereotypes and prejudice. This book which is based on a research study conducted in Windhoek,Namibia, provides an insight into incidents and forms of discrimination and abuse against disabled people. The book is a suitable reference material for social workers, human rights groups, researchers, lawyers, education institutions and specialized United Nations agencies. 92 pp. Englisch.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This study presents a theoretical model that links both squatting and land rental market participation in a two period framework; and further empirically examines the impact of households' demographic, behavioral and material characteristics on squatting and land rental market participation; using sample data from Masindi district, Western Uganda. Off-farm employment is found to be positively correlated with squatting, while renting in land and belonging to a Village Conservation Program are negative correlates. Looking at the broader standpoint of Natural Resource Management Systems, the analysis concludes that encouraging community forest management programs and policing as collective action intervention measures, among others, may help curb squatting. As regards land rental market participation, estimation results revealed a negative relationship between off-farm income and renting in land, implying that labour market constraints may be more important than liquidity constraints in the households' labour allocation decisions in production. 84 pp. Englisch. …

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This study sought to investigate the challenges faced by the informal cross border traders (ICBTs) plying the Harare -Johannesburg route from 2006 to 2010. The study shows that informal cross border traders encounter a lot of challenges during the conduct of their business. Some of these challenges, in terms of severity include border formalities, lack of government support and high transport costs. Informal traders are not organized and do not join associations. This study recommends that informal cross border traders' associations embark on recruitment campaigns to educate the informal cross border traders about the benefits they get by belonging to an association. It also encourages associations to come up with savings clubs to mobilize funds from members for loaning to those members in need at an interest. Finally it also recommends that the government come up with a set of relaxed regulations that would create a non formal board to oversee the informal trade activities. It would then make it mandatory for informal traders to register with the board, making it easier to monitor, regulate and intervene. 80 pp. Englisch.…

The main aim of the research is to analyze B2C e-commerce performance and determine its success factors. B2C e-commerce decisions and success depend on country and sector specific situation. However, this dependence is not very high and is mainly based on external factors such as market size, maturity, online shopping prevalence, education level, buying culture, etc. Experts present B2C e-commerce success as a complex process which incorporates a number of important factors, and orientation or improvement of only one activity can't lead online retailer to success. As the most important groups of factors the research distinguished the appropriate initial preparation and value creation for consumers. Despite the limitations, this research can be the background for further exploration of peoples' buying culture and value in online shopping.

There has been a great deal of research on this issue and specifically on convergence between and within post communist countries. This thesis has the aim to investigate the case of external (to the West) and internal (convergence of districts) convergence in Bulgaria. There is evidence of faster convergence for transition countries, compared to the developed ones in Europe.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The works of Abu Rayhan Al-Biruni (973-1048AD), a Persian polymath scholar who made significant contributions in diverse fields of study, were examined using frameworks of knowledge assets and knowledge flows. The contributions of this great scholar were revisited and the individual, his environment and the link between them were studied. The factors that have contributed to the tremendous achievements in scholarship by the genius of Al- Biruni were found to be the possession of multiple intelligences, a balance of wisdom with an ability to positively influence his environment and a strong Islamic value system within which he operated. The research suggests that possessing multiple intelligences and a balance in wisdom enables the people involved in multi-national, cross-cultural and cross-lingual knowledge transfer to be able to give better form and structure to knowledge enabling easier and better knowledge diffusion. His learning and research methodology was also found to be very conducive to knowledge flows and knowledge transfer in a cross-cultural, global context. 76 pp. Englisch.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Sustainability is currently a hot topic in the media, business world and academic literature. Wrongly, most attention is fixated on large multinational organizations, while small and medium-sized enterprises are mostly ignored. In fact, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are estimated to account for 70% of total pollution and carbon dioxide emissions, and thus it is crucial to examine these organizations more carefully. This thesis therefore takes a specific look at Dutch SMEs and the problem statement of this thesis is as follows: 'How does sustainability affect the organization internally '. The goal of this thesis is therefore to identify how the organization itself is impacted by the presence of a sustainable strategy. This will be investigated in terms of the innovation focus of the company, the organizational goals and rewards, and the organizational culture. Also, drivers and barriers to engage in sustainability will be identified. 88 pp. Englisch.…

This has led to the shift in traditional stands on Kashmir dispute between two rivals. It also averted war between India and Pakistan in 2001-2002 and after Mumbai blasts. Moreover, non-traditional security issues such as energy security and food security as well as widespread poverty which both countries face necessitate conflict transformation between the both states.Borrowing from conflict transformation theories, the study further argues that transformation in rules, actors, and structure would bring about conflict transformation thus breaking down the adversarial relationship between India and Pakistan. 116 pp. Englisch.…

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This book is a follow up of my earlier book that analyses opportunities and challenges for sugar beet cultivation in Kenya. This book covers an in-depth assessment of the biophysical land suitability for sugar beet growing in Kenya, and also an in-depth assessment of the socio-economic prospects and challenges for sugar beet adoption. On the biophysical, the book focuses on the assessment of soil, climate, and topography and how the three factors interact to influence sugar beet yield which in turn affects the spatial distribution of suitable sugar beet growing areas. In regard to socio-economic assessment; the farmers' perception of the crop, farmers' assets to cultivate sugar beet, and comparative sugar beet profitability are discussed. From the interaction of the biophysical and socio-economic findings, the possibility for the sugar beet and other alternative agricultural crops to lift the poor farmers out of poverty, as well as bring about rural development are discussed. This book is a definitive work in tropical sugar beet research and can be a useful reference for all those who work in the sugar beet industry, scientists and students, potential investors, and policy makers. 60 pp. Englisch.…

This is the key message of the study of Open Access in Croatia. Croatia is a transition country on a small R&D budget, with low visibility of local journals and with high price barriers to the mainstream scientific information. Using the examples of Hrcak, the Croatian portal of scientific journals, and several repositories, the study illustrates the process of raising awareness and support for Open Access in the Croatian scientific community, among governmental bodies, publishers, scientists, libraries.' (Jelka Petrak, PhD) 'During the last decade, Open Access has become an important means of communication in science. The author discusses scientific communication, its history and development. and describes two ways of achieving OA.

Based on its morphological, physiological, biochemical characterization and 16S rRNA gene sequence MARS-5 was distinct from other meber of streptomcyes. 16S rRNA gene generated in this work was compared with 16S rRNA gene sequence of other organism retrieved from the EMBL/gene bank dataset. The nearest are being of Streptomyces caelestis with 98.7%. With Streptomyces caelestis our isolated organism has a distinct morphological and cultural difference. Thus, strain MARS-5 as the type strain of a new streptomyces and we proposed a name Streptomcyes ruparajensis. It was found that the maximum production of antimicrobial compound from the organism in Czapex-Dox-alkaline broth medium. The compound MAR-5 has slight antimicrobial activity against a group of the bacteria but it has no antifungal activity. 92 pp. Englisch.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Hot powder forging technique was used to make Fe-P binary, Fe-P-Cr , Fe-P-C ternary, Fe-P-Cr-Si quaternary as well as Fe-P based Fe-P-Si-Ni-Mo-Cu , Fe-P-Si-Ni-Mo-Cu-C and Fe-P-Si-Ni-Mo-Cu-C-Al alloys. In this process mild steel encapsulated hot powders (blend of Fe powder, ferro- phosphorus powder, ferro- silicon powder, ferro- molybdenum powder, ferro-chromium powder, copper powder, nickel powder, aluminum powder & graphite powder) were forged into slabs. Mild steel encapsulation was removed after homogenization of these slabs by machining. The slabs were hot rolled to obtain sheets which were annealed to relieve the residual stresses. Use of fine powder and high temperature processing in the presence of hydrogen atmosphere ensures higher densification. Hydrogen is used for cleaning the powder surfaces before forging. These alloys were characterized in terms of microstructure (optical & electron microscopy) and rate of corrosion. Microstructures of these alloys consisted of single phase ferrite only. 92 pp. Englisch. …

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This a review to identify and understand the extent of palm fibre production and sustainability of harvesting and use in South America. Ethnic groups traditionally use palm fibre, which provides materials for hunting, building houses, and crafting ornamental and ceremonial objects. 91 palms species and 33 genera used for fibre in the region, of which the genera Attalea, Astrocaryum and Syagrus were the most diverse. The species Mauritia flexuosa and A. chambira were those with more reported uses and with the largest number of types of objects manufactured. The extraction, harvesting and processing techniques are very basic and are performed mainly by indigenous groups. Most of the species are used unsustainably and constitute wild populations found on common lands. Markets demand are the major drivers of increased palm fibre extraction and also of incorrect management and harvesting practices used to boost fibre production. 92 pp. Englisch.…
