Die Diskussion über die Globalisierung der Märkte bzw. die Standortdebatte ist angstbesetzt und häufig sachlich irreführend. Die Autoren relativieren existierende Befürchtungen und zeigen, daß die Gestaltungsspielräume durch die verstärkte Arbeitsteilung zwischen ähnlich strukturierten Gesellschaften zunehmen. Sie geben Hinweise darüber, wo die Handlungsspielräume liegen und vermitteln die Überzeugung, daß die arbeitsteilige Vernetzung auch eine gute Grundlage für eine nachhaltig zukunftsverträgliche Entwicklung sein kann.

The monastic erudition of the old religious orders was a pillar of the Catholic Enlightenment within the Holy Roman Empire and many other European countries. Despite the enormous importance the monks had as champions of programmatic Enlightenment ideas, few of their original texts are available in modern editions. Therefore, the present edition contributes to filling this lacuna by making available the main work of the Benedictine monk, Beda Mayr (1742-1794), who developed a modern and ecumenical Catholic theology. Diese Edition macht das Werk "Verteidigung der katholischen Religion" (1789) de

This hardcover edition is available only in a premium, full-cloth binding. It will not ship with a dust jacket. The profession of human resources is at a crossroads. Although a small but increasingly vocal faction is questioning both the value and the need for HR, in fact, HR has never been more necessary. The challenges facing today’s businesses demand speed, responsiveness, learning, and teamwork-in short, organizational capabilities. And HR is uniquely positioned to deliver organizational capabilities, but only if it is willing to abandon many of its traditional functions, assu

Der Förderkreis deutscher Schriftsteller in Baden-Württemberg präsentiert zum fünften Mal eine Anthologie mit Arbeiten seiner Stipendiaten. "Dieses Buch zeigt die Kunst, also Literatur, für die Fördergelder ausgesetzt wurden. Ein solches Lesebuch ist immer auch ein Buch über das Land, in dem es gedeiht, eine virtuelle Bodenkunde und es gibt Auskunft darüber, was der Boden trägt und was er nicht mehr trägt, wo es blüht und wo der Boden verdorrt ist. Dieses Lesebuch beweist, dass von einer Dürre keine Rede sein kann, dass vielmehr der Reichtum und die Vielfalt der Themen und Sprache

The book shows to what degree English is now the dominant language of science. It gives a worldwide overview of various countries on all continents aiming beyond description at explanation and even prediction of future developments. What are the effects of the dominance of English on languages and speakers? Are other languages still being modernized under these conditions? Are their speakers trapped at a permanent disadvantage, or do the advantages of a worldwide lingua franca outweigh disadvantages for everyone? The book provides important background information for language planning and lang

It is not an exaggeration to write that Hans-Ulrich Obrist is everywhere, has curated everything and has interviewed everyone. If "peripatetic" is the word most overused to describe him, it is not inappropriate. The Swiss-born, everywhere-based curator and head of the Programme Migrateurs at the Musée d’Art Moderne de la Ville de Paris has an unstoppable wanderlust and a related symptom: his penchant for interviewing anyone and everyone who piques his curiosity, be they artist, scientist, writer, curator, composer, architect, thinker, etc. Since 1993, Obrist has conducted more than 300

This book contains four survey papers related to different topics in computational mechanics, in particular (1) novel discretization and solver techniques in mechanics and (2) inverse, control, and optimization problems in mechanics. These topics were considered in lectures, seminars, tutorials, and workshops at the Special Semester on Computational Mechanics held at the Johann Radon Institute for Computational and Applied Mathematics (RICAM), Linz, Austria, in December 2005.
