    Abstract: The persistence of indigenous African markets in the context of a hostile or neglectful business and policy environment makes them worthy of analysis. An investigation of Afrocentric business ethics is long overdue. Attempting to understand the actions and efforts of informal traders and artisans from their own points of view, and analysing how they organise and get by, allows for viable approaches to be identified to integrate them into global urban models and cultures.Using the utu-ubuntu model to understand the activities of traders and artisans in Nairobi`s markets, this book explores how, despite being consistently excluded and disadvantaged, they shape urban spaces in and around the city, and contribute to its development as a whole. With immense resilience, and without discarding their own socio-cultural or economic values, informal traders and artisans have created a territorial complex that can be described as the African metropolis.African Markets and the Utu-buntu Business Model sheds light on the ethics and values that underpin the work of traders and artisans in Nairobi, as well as their resilience and positive impact on urbanisation. This book makes an important contribution to the discourse on urban economics and planning in African cities.

    Abstract: Bhutan, das letzte buddhistische Königreich im Himalaya, konnte durch seine abgeschiedene Gebirgslage, die zurückhaltende Außenpolitik und die Grundprinzipien des Buddhismus bis heute eine beachtenswerte Textilkunst bewahren, die mit allen Aspekten des Lebens verwoben ist.Karin Altmann stellt Bhutans Textilien in ihrer Vielfalt vor: sie sind Kleidung und Alltagsobjekt, Währung und Handelsware, markieren als Geschenke wichtige Ereignisse im Laufe eines Lebens und bezeugen den sozialen Status einer Person. Sie sind aber auch integraler Bestandteil bei sakralen Festen, Tänzen und Ritualen, gewähren einen Einblick in die mystische und religiöse Weltanschauung der bhutanischen Bevölkerung und reflektieren zugleich die Konzeption von Gender in der bhutanischen Gesellschaft. Das Buch erzählt so auch die Geschichte eines Landes, das in einer globalisierten Welt sensibel nach einer Balance zwischen Tradition und Fortschritt sucht.Bhutan, the last remaining Buddhist Himalayan Kingdom, has been able to preserve a remarkable textile art which is woven into all aspects of life and signifies the merging between art and spirituality. This is due to Bhutan's remote mountainous location with its natural borders, a deliberate external policy and the basic principles of Buddhist ethics. Bhutanese textiles are clothing and everyday object, tax, currency and commodity, gifts marking important events in the course of a life, and demonstrate the social status of a person as a sign of prestige and prosperity. Textiles are a symbol of national identity as well as a proof of the regional diversity within the country. They are an expression of religious devotion, serve to distinguish and decorate sacred places and are an integral part of Buddhist and pre-Buddhist rituals as well as religious festivals and dances, which awaken Buddhist mythology to life and again express the symbiotic relationship between art and spirituality. Bhutanese textiles are products of traditional knowledge of fiber production, dyeing, weaving, sewing, applique and embroidery. They provide an insight into the mystical and religious beliefs of the Bhutanese population, reflect the complementary but separate worlds of women and men and give a dimension to the Bhutanese concept of gender. Bhutanese textiles give an account of the changing fashions of the Bhutanese society and external influences. And finally they tell the story of a country that sensitively seeks a balance between tradition and progress in a globalized world.
