Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The literature has highlighted the tensions between democracy and anti-corruption efforts, considering their changing meanings over time. These debates have been traversed by understandings of how to ensure appropriate connections between the public and the private, bearing in mind some of their alternative meanings (e.g., for the public as the state, the commons, manifest or impersonal- reasonable interests). Colombia faced these debates at two critical junctures, which led Congress to pass party and anti-corruption laws in both time periods. To contribute to the understanding of these puzzling tensions, the research aimed to solve the following question: Why did Colombian legislators understand some public-private relations as adequate for Colombian democracy, while others as corrupt in the approval of the 1992-1995 and 2010-2011 party and anti-corruption laws, and why did these understandings change Solving this question required consulting the literature that has addressed the discussion points on democratization, corruption and the public-private. This, in order to guide the diachronic comparison. The sampling material was composed by the transcription of the debates in Congress that ended in the approval of the mentioned laws, following a qualitative content analysis. It was observed that the congresspeople tended to modify their emphasis of the democratic and non-corrupt: from the protection of the common to the impersonal-reasonable interests. 615 pp. Englisch.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This book examined the factors that influence young people to engage in juvenile violence and delinquency. Drawing primarily on Robert Agnew's General Strain Theory (GST), the study investigated how experiences of strain contribute to delinquent and violent behaviour among adolescents in Botswana. The application of GST was significant as it has not been previously tested within the context of Botswana, thereby addressing a notable gap in the existing literature. Prior research in Botswana indicates that many young people experience various forms of maltreatment, often originating within family environments where they may suffer physical abuse, neglect, and a lack of emotional support. Therefore, there was need to explore the relationship between adverse experiences (strains) and subsequent involvement in delinquency and violence. In addition to strain, the research also considered the influence of individual characteristics, other family background factors, and risk behaviours such as substance use. While GST provided the primary theoretical lens, supplementary explanations were drawn from masculinity, social learning, labelling, and control theories which offered a more comprehensive explanation of the study findings. The overarching aim was to identify and analyse the multifactorial determinants of juvenile delinquency and violence in Botswana. 326 pp. Englisch.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This book examines the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) in music education through a comparative analysis of Germany and South Korea, two countries that differ significantly in educational governance, cultural traditions, and approaches to digital transformation, yet are closely connected through historical, economic, and academic exchange. While educational policy increasingly emphasizes AI as a key instrument for innovation, little empirical research has addressed how these expectations are negotiated within everyday music-pedagogical practice.Combining a historical-theoretical framework with an empirical, qualitative-quantitative research design, the study investigates how music teachers and AI experts in both countries perceive, implement, and critically evaluate the use of AI in music education. Methodologically, the book applies a hybrid Grounded Theory approach, drawing on large-scale teacher surveys and expert interviews. The analysis follows a multi-stage process of conceptual condensation, integrating first-order empirical findings with second-order interpretative concepts and aggregated theoretical dimensions. The results reveal pronounced discrepancies between educational policy discourse and pedagogical reality in both countries. 475 pp. Englisch.…
