Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -Die sogenannte Tonnagesteuerregelung für Einkünfte aus dem Betrieb von Seeschiffen ist das wohl eigenartigste 'Gewächs' im Artenreichtum des deutschen Steuersystems. Sie stellt eine einzigartige Durchbrechung des Grundprinzips der Besteuerung nach dem Ist-Einkommen bzw. Ist-Gewinn dar und bildet faktisch, wie nachgewiesen wird, eher eine Steuerbefreiung als eine besondere technische Besteuerungsvariante. In den zehn Jahren ihres Bestehens hat sie eine beeindruckende Zahl von steuerrechtlichen und betriebswirtschaftlichen Veröffentlichungen hervorgerufen. In der volkswirtschaftlichen Steuerlehre dagegen hat die Tonnagesteuer bisher keine Beachtung gefunden. Die Arbeit liefert einen steuersystematischen Vergleich der nationalen Steuerregelungen sowie eine Analyse der Entstehungsgeschichte der deutschen Tonnagesteuer und der Zielvorstellungen des Gesetzgebers. Sie präsentiert ferner eine Quantifizierung der mit der Regelung verbundenen Steuermindereinnahmen und unternimmt erstmals eine volkswirtschaftliche Bewertung. 242 pp. Deutsch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Post-Global Network and Everyday Life explores everyday life in the new world order of global network. It argues that network has come into its own as a state of mind and a way of life - in sum, a cultural norm. As a result, it is no longer fitting to examine the network as an external force, but as a somewhat banal aspect of our everyday environment. The essays in this volume provide analyses of case studies that illustrate new - and old - ways in which everyday life is lived within network. Each chapter examines network as an always-already condition - we are the network, and as such are living in a state of post-global network. 208 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Through the lens of TV news anchors, this book examines the impact that television news has had on traditional journalistic standards and practices. While TV news anchors boost the power, adulation, and authority of journalism in general, internally, the journalistic community feels that anchors undermine many key journalistic values. This book provides a historical overview of the impact they have had on American journalism, uncovering the changing values, codes of behavior, and boundaries of the journalistic community. In doing so, it reveals that challenges to journalistic standards provide an opportunity to engage in debate that is central to maintaining journalism's identity, and demonstrate the ability of the community to self-regulate. The result is that news anchors are kept in check by the community, and the community is prompted to reexamine itself and evolve. The book's findings also offer suggestions for thinking about how journalists are dealing with the latest technological challenges posed by the internet and mobile technology. 232 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -New Perspectives in Educational Leadership examines educational administration and leadership within the complex social, political, and community contexts that inform and influence the work of today's educational leaders. With particular attention to the implications and larger contexts of shifting demographics, high-stakes accountability, and globalization on schools and society in the twenty-first century, this volume seeks to advance lines of inquiry presented in other areas of education research, that have yet to be fully explored or imagined in the field of educational leadership. This unique blend of empirical, theoretical, and conceptual research by both established and emerging scholars in the field directly acknowledges and addresses the demands of leading increasingly diverse and complex school communities. Topics include: the social and cultural dynamics of leadership, reflective practice, politics of equity and adequacy, critical servant leadership, and the possibilities of transformative leadership within these dynamic educational contexts. As a primary or supplementary text in educational administration, leadership, and foundations courses, New Perspectives in Educational Leadership provides a much-needed complement to the traditional topics of instructional leadership and education management given the expanding and increasingly complex conditions that face educational administrators and school leaders today. 322 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This is the first edited volume to put the emerging field of web history on the agenda of internet research. Sixteen original chapters investigate how the use of the web has developed in the realm of web culture at large, as well as how the organization of web industries and old media institutions on the web have changed. A number of fundamental theoretical and methodological questions related to doing web history are also examined. The collection aims to explore some of the possible ways of approaching the web of the past, based on the assumption that the past is not only important for historical purposes, but because it must be taken into consideration in order to fully understand the web of the present and the web of the future. The book includes a foreword by Charles Ess and contributions from Kirsten Foot, Steven Schneider, Alexander Halavais, Ken Hillis, and more. 376 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The United States of America is a multilingual and multicultural nation made up of people of culturally, economically, religiously, and linguistically diverse backgrounds. Designed to appeal to all educators, this book was written to help prospective educators address socio-cultural questions, ideas, issues, and curiosities they encounter in multicultural education. Differences in race, ethnicity, culture, religion, social class, and socio-economic status call for comprehensive multicultural education-not only for students, but also for teachers. Today's pre-service and in-service educators-teachers, administrators, parents, and teacher candidates-need to understand how students of various cultures feel, learn, understand, and behave in elementary and secondary schools as well as how these students adjust and adapt to the mainstream society in the communities where they live. The information in this book will guide educators in exploring the socio-cultural issues of cultural diversity and multiculturalism. 361 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Eberhard Mannack wurde 1928 im östlichsten Teil Sachsens geboren und verbrachte dort die ersten zwanzig Jahre seines Lebens, davon zwölf in der braunen und vier in der roten Diktatur. Das macht ihn zweifellos weitgehend verdächtig und zwingt zu einer rigorosen Selbsterkundung mit dem schwierigen Vorsatz, bewussten Erinnerungslücken und Verdrängungen zu entgehen. Der Bericht über sein Leben entspricht dem Bedürfnis, Informationen von Augenzeugen über ihre Zeit während zweier Diktaturen (Drittes Reich, Sowjetische Besatzungszone/DDR) und der Nachkriegszeit (besonders der Teilung und der Situation Westberlins) zu vermitteln. Dies geschieht exemplarisch anhand des schwierigen Bildungsweges sowie in apologetischer Absicht anhand politisch-gesellschaftlicher Bewährung (u. a. der sogenannten Kollektivschuld) mit einer Kritik an undifferenzierten Urteilen, die in jüngster Zeit häufiger vorkommen. 122 pp. Deutsch.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The aim of this study is to better understand stable capital growth of German properties and to contribute to the explanation of stable fund returns. In the course of the investigation, evidence is found that both phenomena are interrelated. All analyses are based on publicly available data; therefore they are not limited by client interests. Results show three different pieces of evidence on return smoothing, namely the influence on valuation, the timing of valuations, and the influence on returns resulting in return differences by calendar months. Together with the notion of internationally uniquely stable returns, it seems impossible to extract true asset volatility from the observed appraisal-based time series. 124 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -La paix et la sécurité sont deux concepts qui se placent à la base du processus d'intégration européenne après 1945. Jusqu'en 1989, elles sont garanties par un lien étroit entre l'Europe de l'Ouest et l'Organisation du Traité Atlantique Nord (OTAN). Mais aujourd'hui, vingt ans après la chute du mur de Berlin et la fin du conflit bipolaire, les relations internationales sont entrées dans une phase de transition caractérisée par l'incertitude et la crainte envers les nouveaux défis qui découlent du processus de la globalisation. Les relations entre l'OTAN et l'Union européenne (UE) doivent donc être redéfinies, notamment en tenant compte des facteurs exogènes et endogènes capables d'unir ou de diviser l'Europe et les États-Unis dans le domaine de la sécurité.Cet ouvrage reprend les actes du premier Forum Académique sur la Sécurité en Europe (FASE) sur le thème des relations entre le Pacte atlantique et les instances de défense européenne qui s'est tenu les 21 et 22 avril 2008 à Strasbourg. Les intervenants du Forum, des personnes provenant d'horizons différents - militaires, universitaires, hauts fonctionnaires -, tentent d'apporter leur échange à la problématique essentielle des relations OTAN-UE. 156 pp. Französisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The first decades of the 20th century were marked by a crisis. The impact of the Great War, the rise of the workers' revolutionary movement and the National Socialist expansion as well as the disaster of the 1929 crash and the great depression of the 1930s created a landscape of tension, radicalism and political instability. In this context, nutrition emerges as an excellent ground from which to explore the genesis of experimental knowledge, the social interests involved, and the transfer of knowledge and practices to public health, the economy, trade and politics. The exceptional confluence of all factors influencing the interwar period contributed to building the problem of nutrition. This book offers a wide perspective including international agencies committed to a global approach to define nutritional problems, agricultural reforms, surveys in different countries and rural areas, methodological agreements on nutritional standards, the main trends of experimental research, the dreadful impact of the war and some experiments developed in internment camps. The author examines nutrition as a cornerstone to show interactions between science, politics, economy and public health. 163 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -What services should a modern university language centre offer its clients: students, departments, and faculties How can language centres find out more about the language needs of the different actors at University level The book pursues a double purpose: first, it offers a coherent theoretical framework for conducting a multiperspective, mixed-mode foreign language needs analysis in a university context. Its second purpose is to show in very detailed analysis what the practical results and consequences of such an analysis can be. After a critical view of data collection methods in foreign language needs analysis, the authors describe the framework of the Leibniz Universität Hannover, a German university dedicated to the process of internationalisation. The book examines and evaluates in detail the results of a foreign language needs analysis conducted among approximately 18,000 students and 1,800 staff members at that university. Finally, the book demonstrates how the results of such an analysis inform a re-evaluation of language course programmes and language services within the university context. 162 pp. Englisch.

Die Beiträge untersuchen exemplarisch Identitäts- und Genderkonzepte und zeigen auf, wie diese in unterschiedlichen Medien reflektiert werden.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The debate about ethnicity in sub-Saharan Africa has come to an uneasy consensus in the 1990s, but it has to be asked if we are really close to a solution. How can comparative and historical views help to inform the debate In this work, seven scholars bring in a long-term perspective to ethno-cultural solidarities, which they explore within a multi-disciplinary framework. This return to the 'heart of the ethnic group', twenty-five years after Elikia M'Bokolo's and Jean-Loup Amselle's path-breaking reinterpretation of ethnicity in Africa, argues for a reappraisal of approaches to ethnicity that have been adopted in recent decades. Focusing on two major geographical regions of the African continent - Senegambia including Guinea-Bissau and Sierra Leone, and the area of Southern Tanzania and the northern half of Mozambique -, the chapters in this volume provide a new historical interpretation of the processes of identity-building in sub-Saharan Africa. 215 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This book offers a case study in foreign policy change: It examines why the Bush administration suddenly redirected its nuclear nonproliferation policy toward North Korea in the aftermath of North Koreäs first nuclear test in October 2006, abandoning its former confrontational approach in favor of a more accommodating line. Existing explanations of this course reversal draw on the security implications of a growing crisis on the Korean Peninsula, U.S. domestic politics, and changing decision-making dynamics within the Bush administration. Employing before-after comparison, the study refutes these accounts ¿ and it offers an alternative explanation: The Bush administration altered its nonproliferation policy toward North Korea toward a cooperative course because after the nuclear test, it perceived fundamentally improved prospects for fruitful cooperation on North Koreäs denuclearization. 202 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -In Economics, networks are increasingly used to describe the many links created between independent companies, as well as between them and other institutions (universities, banks, venture capital, etc.). In the current global and knowledge-based economy, they can be characterised as knowledge factories and knowledge boosters. They feed the internal processes of innovation (collaborative innovation) or the external processes of innovation, created by the propagation effects that come from inter-firm collaboration. The book explains how innovation networks are at the origin of the production of new knowledge that will be transformed and used in common as well as in separated production processes. This characteristic of networks as knowledge factories gives incentives to further investment in the production of knowledge and ensures the cumulativeness of the innovation process. Some of the authors clearly take a territorial point of view and study how clusters (in different parts of the world: Europe, Eastern Asia and North America) propelled by the quality of the innovation networks they enclose, can be characterised as knowledge pools into which the local actors will be able to draw to reinforce their individual and collective competitiveness. This book also includes analyses of the quality of the networks built within clusters, which may help their identification. 227 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -After decades of uncomfortable silence, Spain has now started dealing with its violent twentieth-century past. In recent years, a vibrant memory discourse has emerged in Spanish society: the number of films, TV series, newspaper articles, history books, and memorials dedicated to the Civil War of 1936-1939 and the ensuing dictatorship of Franco has increased dramatically. Literature has also played its part in provoking and maintaining this memory boom, and as a consequence, the study of contemporary Spanish novels has started revolving around questions on the responsibility of the author, on the impact of literature in society, on its role in shaping memories, and on its ethical status. This book takes up these questions in an attempt to combine the outlook of collective memory studies with the theoretical demands of Poststructuralist theories. Focusing on themes such as haunting and the uncanny, nostalgia, the Bildungsroman genre, and autobiography, its author analyses memory narratives in fourteen novels by foremost Spanish authors like Javier Marías, Luis Goytisolo, Enrique Vila-Matas, and Manuel Vicent. 230 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This book contrasts the portrayal of kings and kingship in the drama of William Shakespeare (1564-1616) and the Spanish playwright Pedro Calderón de la Barca (1600-81), concentrating on the ways in which both dramatists use the individual complexities of their kingly characters to address the intellectual and moral dilemmas of the ideological backgrounds that helped to create them. Against the background of seventeenth-century Europe, when religious and political reformation was leading to reconstructions of concepts of authority and personal and national identity, these two dramatists of early modern England and Spain use the increasingly theatrical facades of absolutist power to explore the internal drama of individual psychology and the kinship of flawed humanity. 199 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Il volume contiene una serie di contributi che cercano di delineare, ognuno a modo suo, una mappa degli aspetti e dei problemi che tradurre da una lingua all'altra presuppone, provando a costruire una visione d'insieme attraverso l'apporto di più punti di osservazione. Pur destinando maggior spazio alla prassi non si è voluto trascurare la teoria o meglio il nodo delle relazioni che intercorrono tra i due momenti, soprattutto per le implicazioni sul piano didattico - oggi di particolare attualità nel quadro della riforma universitaria che ridisegna ordinamenti, gruppi disciplinari e soprattutto profili professionali. Insegnare a tradurre impone evidentemente di fare chiarezza sulla natura del sapere che si vuole trasmettere oltre che sui metodi e le tecniche per produrre tale trasmissione. 290 pp. Italienisch.

Der Briefwechsel zwischen Boris Pasternak und seinem amerikanischen Verleger Kurt Wolff, der maßgeblich an der weltweiten Anerkennung Pasternaks beteiligt war, spiegelt die sowohl glückliche als auch tragische Geschichte seiner letzten Lebensjahre wider - der Jahre seines Ruhmes im Westen und einer Hetzkampagne gegen ihn in seiner Heimat, der Zeit der Veröffentlichung des 'Doktor Zivago' im Ausland, der Verleihung des Nobelpreises für Literatur 1958. 208 pp. Deutsch.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Der Entschluss zum biographischen Stillstand ist ein literarischer Topos, der in Texten der Klassischen Moderne, aber auch in postmoderner Gegenwartsliteratur zu finden ist. Entwicklungsverweigerer wie Peter Pan oder Oskar Matzerath sind zu Ikonen der Literatur- und Filmgeschichte avanciert. Diese Studie formuliert wesentliche Gattungskriterien der Anti-Entwicklungsliteratur und entwirft eine Typologie der Verweigerung, indem sie die individuellen Motive der literarischen Entwicklungsverweigerer mit den gesellschaftlichen und ästhetischen Konzepten ihrer Entstehungszeit verknüpft. Der entwicklungspsychologische und literaturwissenschaftliche Ansatz der Studie wird ergänzt durch didaktische Überlegungen, die einem kompetenzorientierten und schülerzentrierten Unterricht verpflichtet sind. Methodische Hinweise, Unterrichtsprotokolle, Aufsatzbeispiele sowie ein umfangreicher Materialteil ermöglichen eine direkte Umsetzung des Modells im Literaturunterricht der Sekundarstufe II. 116 pp. Deutsch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Michel Houellebecq is a French author whose profile in the English-speaking world is unusually high. He is an author who has put the humour back into the Absurd, without losing any of the awareness of the bleakness of the human condition. Undoubtedly one of the most trenchant satirists of our time, he deflates the projected utopias that we imagine protect us from the ills that beset us. More than many other novelists, his work is a reflection of the social and economic reality of life in a post-industrial society. Houellebecq shows a world of violence and tension, a world where people find it hard to be at ease, so that life becomes a process of disease. This book foregrounds Houellebecq's scrutiny of our various attempts to confront and transcend the fundamental reality of the human condition, in particular the horror of death. 219 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Comment reconnaître le poète en Georges Bataille - à côté de l'écrivain et du penseur A partir d'une lecture détaillée de L'Impossible , ce livre met peu à peu en lumière la relation paradoxale qui s'établit dans le mouvement de l'écriture entre le langage, l'expérience et le monde. Cette approche favorise les confrontations en sciences humaines et en même temps, elle éclaire le sens de la haine de la poésie qui excède les limites de la littérature et de la philosophie. Par leur exploration du mode de référence propre à l'énonciation, ces analyses permettent aussi de questionner la place du lecteur et les enjeux de la critique du discours. On peut voir les thèmes-clés de la pensée de Bataille (souveraineté, transgression, sacré.) ordonner leur cohérence profonde autour du réel impossible, depuis l'oeuvre de la mort dans le texte. D'une poétique nouvelle, cette écriture augure une éthique à venir. 170 pp. Französisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Dem Geschlecht als sozialer Strukturkategorie kommt im Rahmen der Geschlechterforschung eine besondere Bedeutung zu. Diese Kategorie beinhaltet ein bedeutendes Potenzial zur Erklärung der sozialen Ungleichheit: die soziale Organisation der Arbeitsteilung, der Sexualität, des generativen Verhaltens wie auch die Verteilung von Macht oder die kulturelle Ordnung werden daher unter einer 'Geschlechterperspektive' betrachtet, unter der Gender & Diversity-Perspektive. Was sich unter dieser Perspektive verbirgt und womit sich Gender & Diversity-Ansätze beschäftigen bzw. wie wir mit einer erlernten Gender-Perspektive gesellschaftliche Gegebenheiten erkennen und verbessern können, ist spontan nicht zu erkennen. Das Studienbuch umfasst 13 Lerneinheiten und zeigt aus einer sozialwissenschaftlichen Perspektive unterschiedliche Ursachen für diese Geschlechterdisparitäten. Es werden sowohl wichtige theoretische Erklärungsansätze als auch themenspezifische Perspektiven auf soziale Räume behandelt. 232 pp. Deutsch.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -If the new cultural sociology is to gain firm grounds, it should rediscover the classic studies on cultural dynamics and cultural systems. This book contributes to a better understanding of Florian Znaniecki as an eminent culturologist and the lasting relevance of his theory of cultural becoming. Znaniecki opted for a humanistic approach that he called culturalism. Culturalism, founded on the principle of the humanistic coefficient, is applied also to the cultural person. The concept of social values makes this cultural approach an original one. The cultural logic and cultural ethos of Znaniecki's thought is inherent in the very principle of a creative evolution of culture, augmenting his vision of a new civilization of the future and a world culture society. 260 pp. Englisch.
