    Abstract: The book presents a unique combination of the study of contemporary and historical practices between Asia and Europe and brings forth some of the latest thinking on the subject. Recent debates have centered primarily on contemporary aspects of the Europe-Asia partnership in terms of international relations and economic linkages. The present volume complements this political and economic interest in Europe-Asia relationship by focusing on the academic, social and cultural connections between the two regions. The contributions in this volume have a contemporary focus but contextualize the themes within a historical perspective. They deal with academic discourses on the region, on modernity and entrepreneurship; they discuss the long-term exchange of knowledge in specific scientific fields; and they focus on the cultural interconnections in the area of film, literature and migration. The originality of this book lies in its interdisciplinary approach to the question of Asia-Europe and in its emphasis on the multifaceted complexity of the relationship between these two regions. It brings together the diversity of local histories, ideas, and agencies in both Europe and Asia into a universal project of knowledge formation in order to reveal their contribution to the making of the world we are in.

    Abstract: Ethnic/racial relations have been a perennial theme in Southeast Asian studies. Current events have highlighted the tensions among ethnicgroups and the need to maintain ethnic/racial harmony for national unity. This book analyses ethnic/race relations in Singapore, Malaysia, and Indonesia, with special reference to the roles of ethnic Chinese in nation-building. It brings together a group of established Southeast Asian scholars to critically examine some of the important issues such as ethnic politics, nation-building, state policies, and conflict resolution. These scholars of different ethnic origins present their own ethnic perspectives and hence make the book unique. This is the most up-to-date book on ethnic/racial relations with special reference to the ethnic Chinese in three Southeast Asian countries

    Note: Kultur und Herkunft, Tradition und Geschichte, soziales Denken und individualistische Züge prägen Menschen. Sie formen auch ihre Neigungen zu Auseinandersetzung, ihre Streitstile, ihre Toleranz und Flexibilität sowie ihre Motivation zu streiten, miteinander auszukommen und Feindschaften oder Ärgernisse überwinden zu wollen. In diesem Buch zeigen AutorInnen anhand zahlreicher praktischer Beispiele auf, wie mit Hilfe von Mediation zufriedenstellende Lösungen für ein konstruktives Miteinander erreicht werden können. Neben dem theoretischen Hintergrund von interkultureller Konfliktregelung werden methodische Besonderheiten, wie etwa Techniken aus dem Improvisationstheater, Rollenspiele und typische Anwendungsfelder, z.B. die Schule und deren kulturelles Konfliktpotential, praxisrelevant aufbereitet. Das Buch bietet somit einen guten Überblick zur interkulturellen Mediation und ist daher unverzichtbar für alle, die mit Menschen unterschiedlicher Kultur arbeiten

    Note: Heterogenität in Kooperationszusammenhängen erfährt neuerdings besondere Aufmerksamkeit in der Wissenschafts- und Technikforschung. Zusammenarbeit zwischen Angehörigen unterschiedlicher Fachgebiete, aber auch Verteiltheit der Akteure über verschiedene Kulturen oder Wertegemeinschaften hinweg sind prominente Forschungsgegenstände geworden. Dabei ist Heterogenität der Normalfall, von dem aus Homogenität in allen Sozialbezügen, aber auch im Umgang mit der Materialität unserer Umwelt überhaupt erst hergestellt werden kann. Der vorliegende Band trägt Arbeiten zusammen, die Heterogenität in Kooperationsbeziehungen vor allem unter dem Gesichtspunkt einer leistungsrelevanten Ressource in den Wissenschaften und in der Technikgestaltung betrachtet. Welche Objekte und Modalitäten spielen eine Rolle, damit das Potential von Heterogenität zur Entfaltung kommen kann? Wie ,funktionieren' Austausch, Übersetzung, Vermittlung in kooperativen Konstellationen, die nicht nur noch nicht ,homogenisiert' sind, sondern dies auch um der Leistungsfähigkeit der Zusammenarbeit Willen überhaupt nicht werden sollten?

    Note: Bourdieus Theorie der Praxis gehört zweifellos zu den interessantesten und am weitesten ausgearbeiteten soziologischen Theorieangeboten der Gegenwart. Obwohl von Bourdieu als allgemeine Sozialtheorie mit universellem Erklärungsanspruch konzipiert, beschränkt sich die bisherige Wirkungsmacht seines Ansatzes weitgehend auf die Thematik strukturierter sozialer Ungleichheit. Der Sammelband versucht diese thematische Engführung zu überwinden, indem er die Anschlussmöglichkeiten für einige spezielle Soziologien testet, die eine besondere Relevanz und Aktualität für die moderne Gesellschaft besitzen: die Techniksoziologie, die Organisationssoziologie und die Soziologie des Geschlechterverhältnisses. Darüber hinaus wird im letzten Teil des Bandes das sozialtheoretische Potenzial der bourdieuschen "Praxeologie" einer kritischen Überprüfung unterzogen. Die unterschiedlichen Beiträge zeigen, dass sich im Anschluss an Bourdieu zwar durchaus praxistheoretische Erklärungsmodelle zentraler Ausschnitte des Sozialen entwickeln lassen, sein Theorievokabular im Zuge dieser experimentellen Einordnung in neue Kontexte aber modifiziert und erweitert werden muss

Metalanguage is theorized as an indispensable aspect of communication and as such an integral part of any sociolinguistic analysis. The book overviews the theory of metalanguage and presents original case studies of metalanguage in lay and professional (including linguists') discourses, the media, parliamentary debates, education, and retail shopping."--BOOK JACKET.

    Abstract: The prime focus on the social processes of schooling within educational ethnography has tended to marginalise or eschew the importance of other 'informal' educational sites. Other social institutions, such as family, community, media and popular culture, work and prisons are salient arenas in which behaviours and lives are regulated. They all interrelate and are all implicated in the generation, management and development of social identities and the social and cultural reproduction of structures and relations. Individuals, though, are not merely shaped by these social institutions, their agency is evident in the way they creatively adapt and accommodate to the tensions and constraints of economic, educational and social policies. The maintenance of self in these situations requires identity work involving mediation, conflict, contestation and modes of resistance, which often contribute to a continual reconstruction of situations and contexts. This volume of "Studies in Educational Ethnography" focuses on identity and agency in a variety of social institutions in educational ethnography. The contributors explore these themes in a wide range of international contexts including: Belgium, Sweden, North America, South Africa and England. They demonstrate the capacity of educational ethnography to provide accounts of participants' perspectives and understandings to highlight the agency of educational subjects

    Abstract: Klappentext: Die DuMont-Forschungsreihe MEDIOLOGIE: Die politischen Ideologien, besonders des 20. Jahrhunderts, verlockten zur Bildung von Gesinnungsgemeinschaften, zur Bestimmung von Freund und Feind. In diesem Kontext schillert der politische Seitenwechsel in vielen Farben: Bekehrung und Denunziation, enttäuschte Verweigerung, Spaltung und Spionage. Die Medientheorien des 20. Jahrhunderts bildeten sich zwischen sozialen Modellen und ihren politischen Anwendungen. Der Seitenwechsel stand im Zentrum der Theoriebildung: in der teilnehmenden Beobachtung von Propaganda und Massenmedien, Kriegstechnik und Pazifismus, Werbung und Konsumkritik. Was wird aus diesem politischen Kern der Medien und der Medientheorie nach dem Kalten Krieg und im 21. Jahrhundert? Ist die Rede vom Verrat noch eine tragende politische Größe, etwa in der Enttäuschung über staatliche und wirtschaftliche Versprechen? Und welche Rolle spielen mediale Feindbilder heute in den Widersprüchen der Weltgesellschaft etwa wenn man George Bush und Osama Bin Ladin aus nigerianischer Perspektive verfolgt? Die Herausgeber: Cornelia Epping-Jäger ist wissenschaftliche Mitarbeiterin am Kulturwissenschaftlichen Forschungskolleg der Universität zu Köln. Ihre Arbeitsschwerpunkte sind Mediengeschichte und Medientheorie. Torsten Hahn ist Wissenschaftlicher Assistent am Institut für deutsche Sprache und Literatur der Universität zu Köln. Sein aktueller Arbeitsschwerpunkt ist Literatur um 1800 als Gesellschaftsbobachtung. Erhard Schüttpelz war von 1998 bis 2003 Wissenschaftlicher Mitarbeiter am Kulturwissenschaftlichen Forschungskolleg "Medien und kulturelle Kommunikation" der Universität zu Köln. Er ist derzeit Koordinator der Forschungsstelle "Kulturtheorie und Theorie des politischen Imaginären" an der Universität Konstanz. Seine Arbeitsschwerpunkte sind Wissenschaftsgeschichte, Medienanthropologie und Weltliteratur.

    Abstract: The nineteenth century, a time of far-reaching cultural, political, and socio-economic transformation in Europe, brought about fundamental changes in the role of women. Women achieved this by fighting for their rights in the legal, economic, and political spheres. In the various parts of Europe, this process went forward at different paces and followed different patterns. Most historical research up to now has ignored this diversity, preferring to focus on women's emancipation movements in major western European countries such as Britain and France. The present volume provides a broader context to the movement by including countries, both large and small, from all regions of Europe. Fourteen historians, all of them specialists in women's history, examine the origins and development of women's emancipation movements in their respective areas of expertise. By exploring the cultural and political diversity of nineteenth-century Europe and at the same time pointing out connections to questions explored by conventional scholarship, the essays shed new light on common developments and problems

    Abstract: Information and computer technologies are used every day by real people with real needs. The authors contributing to Shaping the Network Society describe how technology can be used effectively by communities, activists, and citizens to meet society's challenges. In their vision, computer professionals are concerned less with bits, bytes, and algorithms and more with productive partnerships that engage both researchers and community activists. These collaborations are producing important sociotechnical work that will affect the future of the network society. Traditionally, academic research on real-world users of technology has been neglected or even discouraged. The authors contributing to this book are working to fill this gap; their theoretical and practical discussions illustrate a new orientation -- research that works with people in their natural social environments, uses common language rather than rarefied academic discourse, and takes a pragmatic perspective. The topics they consider are key to democratization and social change. They include human rights in the "global billboard society"; public computing in Toledo, Ohio; public digital culture in Amsterdam; "civil networking" in the former Yugoslavia; information technology and the international public sphere; "historical archaeologies" of community networks; "technobiographical" reflections on the future; libraries as information commons; and globalization and media democracy, as illustrated by Indymedia, a global collective of independent media organizations

    Abstract: This book critically analyses the specific threat of terrorism in Southeast Asia since the Bali blasts of 12 October 2002 and the US-led war on Iraq. It offers a comprehensive and critical examination of the ideological, socioeconomic and political motivations, trans-regional linkages, and media representations of the terrorist threat in the region, assesses the efficacy of the regional counter-terror response and suggests a more balanced and nuanced approach to combating the terror threat in Southeast Asia. The contributors include leading scholars of political Islam in the region, renowned terrorism and regional security analysts, as well as highly regarded regional journalists and commentators. This represents a formidable and unequalled combination of expertise

    Abstract: The prime focus on the social processes of schooling within educational ethnography has tended to marginalise or eschew the importance of other 'informal' educational sites. Other social institutions, such as family, community, media and popular culture, work and prisons are salient arenas in which behaviours and lives are regulated. They all interrelate and are all implicated in the generation, management and development of social identities and the social and cultural reproduction of structures and relations. Individuals, though, are not merely shaped by these social institutions, their agen

    Abstract: Discussions on sexuality in the South Asian context have tended to focus largely on mens̀ preoccupations through notions such as s̀emen-anxiety.̀ Another restrictive framework is the excessive importance ascribed to religion in everyday life. The result has been a rather narrow debate on sexuality. By providing accounts of a myriad sites and meanings of sexuality, this remarkable volume broadens the debate on sexuality in South Asia. It combines perspectives from history, anthropology, and cultural and literary studies to provide an interdisciplinary exploration of the cultures of, and the mul

    Abstract: Since their arrival in Europe at the beginning of the eleventh century, the ?Gypsies? have stimulated and fascinated the European imagination, but have also always been perceived as ?other? and marginalised. This title is split into four parts and seeks to address the questions raised by the ambivalent encounter of the ?Gypsies? with European cultures. The volume begins with three chapters about the genesis, development and scope of Romany Studies. Constructions of Romany culture and identity are at the heart of the second part. Part three focuses on nineteenth- and twentieth-century literary

    Series Statement: Studies on Ethnic Groups in China
    DDC: 323.151
    Keywords: Ethnic minorities & multicultural studies ; Konferenzschrift
    Abstract: Open-access edition: DOI 10.6069/9780295804057 Upon coming to power in 1949, the Chinese Communist government proclaimed that its stance toward ethnic minorities--who comprise approximately eight percent of China’s population--differed from that of previous regimes and that it would help preserve the linguistic and cultural heritage of the fifty-five official "minority nationalities." However, minority culture suffered widespread destruction in the early decades of the People’s Republic of China, and minority areas still lag far behind Han (majority) areas economically. Since the mid-1990s, both domestic and foreign developments have refocused government attention on the inhabitants of China’s minority regions, their relationship to the Chinese state, and their foreign ties. Intense economic development of and Han settlement in China’s remote minority regions threaten to displace indigenous populations, post-Soviet establishment of independent countries composed mainly of Muslim and Turkic-speaking peoples presents questions for related groups in China, freedom of Mongolia from Soviet control raises the specter of a pan-Mongolian movement encompassing Chinese Mongols, and international groups press for a more autonomous or even independent Tibet. In Governing China’s Multiethnic Frontiers, leading scholars examine the Chinese government’s administration of its ethnic minority regions, particularly border areas where ethnicity is at times a volatile issue and where separatist movements are feared. Seven essays focus on the Muslim Hui, multiethnic southwest China, Inner Mongolia, Xinjiang, and Tibet. Together these studies provide an overview of government relations with key minority populations, against which one can view evolving dialogues and disputes

    Abstract: ‘Censorship’ has become a fashionable topic, not only because of newly available archival material from Eastern Europe and the former Soviet Union, but also because the ‘new censorship’ (inspired by the works of Foucault and Bourdieu) has widened the very concept of censorhip beyond its conventional boundaries. This volume uses these new materials and perspectives to address the relationship of censorship to cultural selection processes (such as canon formation), economic forces, social exclusion, professional marginalization, silencing through specialized discourses, communicative norms, and other forms of control and regulation. Two articles in this collection investigate these issue theoretically. The remaining eight contributions address the issues by investigating censorial practice across time and space by looking at the closure of Paul’s playhouse in 1606; the legacy of 19th century American regulations and representation of women teachers; the relationship between official and samizdat publishing in Communist Poland; the ban on Gegenwartsfilme (films about contemporary society) in East Germany in 1965/66; the censorship of modernist music in Weimar and Nazi Germany; the GDR’s censorship of jazz and avantgarde music in the early 1950s; Aesopian strategies of textual resistance in the pop music of apartheid South Africa and in the stories of Mario Benedetti

    Note: Includes bibliographical references and index , Biographical note: Adam Jaworski is reader at Cardiff University, Wales, UK. Nikolas Coupland is Professor at Cardiff University, Wales, UK. Dariusz Galasinski is Professor at the University of Wolverhampton, UK. , Main description: Metalanguage brings together new, original contributions on people's knowledge about language and representations of language, e.g., representations of dialects, styles, utterances, stances and goals in relation to sociolinguistic theory, sociolinguistic accounts of language variation, and accounts of linguistic usage. The book follows from and complements a great tradition of the study of metalanguage, reflexivity, and metapragmatics, and offers a new, integrating perspective from various fields of sociolinguistics: perceptual dialectology, variationism, pragmatics, critical discourse analysis, and social semiotics. The broad range of theoretical issues and accessible style of writing will appeal to advanced students and researchers in sociolinguistics and in other disciplines across the social sciences and humanities including linguists, communication researchers, anthropologists, sociologists, social psychologists, critical and social theorists. The book includes chapters by Deborah Cameron, Nikolas Coupland, Dariusz Galasi?ski, Peter Garrett, Adam Jaworski, Tore Kristiansen, Ulrike Hanna Meinhof, Dennis Preston, Theo van Leeuwen, Kay Richardson, Itesh Sachdev, Angie Williams, and John Wilson

    Abstract: Fast alle Nationalstaaten sind aus Kriegen hervorgegangen. Auch die Nationen, die durchweg älter als ihre Staaten sind, sahen ihre Ursprünge vielfach in Kriegen. Um solche Mythen geht es in diesem Buch: Welche Rolle haben Kriege in den Gründungsmythen von Nationen und Nationalstaaten gespielt? Verweist ein besonders kriegsträchtiges Mythenarsenal auf eine erhöhte Kriegsmächtigkeit in der Politik dieser Nation? Untersucht wird dies für die USA und Europa, die Spannweite reicht von den westeuropäischen »Modellnationen« bis zu den jüngsten Nationskämpfen auf dem Balkan. Die Herausgeber Nikolaus Buschmann, Dr. phil., ist wissenschaftlicher Assistent am Historischen Seminar der Eberhard Karls Universität Tübingen. Dieter Langewiesche ist dort Professor für Neuere Geschichte.

    Abstract: Population mobility increases with economic development and globalization. The migration of people affects countries in many ways -- socially, economically and politically. However, there are fundamental tensions in efforts to manage international migration in a globalizing world. On the one hand, business is transnational as it necessitates the unrestricted flow of people internationally. On the other hand, politics is still national. In an integrated world economy, trade, flow of capital, flow of labour, flow of raw materials and technology are inter-related. This study therefore examines international migration in the context of an integrated world economy. Specifically, it looks at the history of migration in modern Southeast Asia; investments, remittances and welfare; the vulnerability of workers; national migration policies; and the problem of irregular migrants.

    Abstract: Social inequalities have grown during Vietnam’s transition to a market-based economy, even as average incomes have increased and the number of people living in poverty has lessened. Do widening social rifts –- between rich and poor, urban and rural communities and along regional, gender and ethnic lines -– have the potential to undermine Vietnam’s liberal reforms and its integration with its region? How has the socialist state responded to these challenges? Based on research and analysis of recent conditions, Social Inequality in Vietnam and the Challenges to Reform offers detailed descriptions of disparities in income, spatial access, gender, ethnicity and status, addressing their causes and consequences. The eleven chapters in this book illustrate the changing ways in which people have accumulated wealth, social and cultural capital in Vietnam’s move from a socialist to a market-oriented society. They assemble data from the Northern Uplands to the Mekong delta to explore geographic variability in patterns of social differentiation. Offering critical insights into state policy, the chapters assess the adequacy of government responses and outline local responses and informal solutions to social disadvantage. This book features a diverse mix of theoretical and methodological approaches and bridges some of the disciplinary and institutional divides that have impeded understanding of inequality in Vietnam. The wide range of themes it covers will make it a sought-after resource for those interested in contemporary Vietnam and the effects of liberal reforms, globalization and post-socialist development strategies.

    Abstract: AIDS, Ebola und abstürzende Computer; Fremdkörper, Parasiten und Sleeper; Bio- und Cyberterrorismus, Tierseuchen und zuletzt SARS: Viren zirkulieren derzeit in verschiedensten Bereichen. Dabei erweist sich die Metaphorik des Wortes als ebenso grenzgängerisch und mutierend wie die konkreten Objekte. Sie wird bemüht, um Bedrohungsszenarien und grenzsichernde Maßnahmen durchzusetzen und dient gleichzeitig als Modell für Widerstand und subversive Selbstinszenierungen. Kein Zufall, dass sich die jüngste Mediendebatte um terroristische Gewalt erneut in diesen Mustern verfangen hat. Der Band »VIRUS!« untersucht die Auswirkungen der Bilder von riskanten Kontakten, Ansteckung und Unterwanderung - nicht nur auf die Herstellung der »harten Fakten« in Naturwissenschaften und Technik, sondern auch auf die Gestaltung der globalen Weltordnung

    Abstract: Human Capital, Trade and Public Policy in Rapidly Growing Economies argues that only two centuries ago, no society had ever enjoyed sustained growth in living standards. The contributors to this book aim to discover why the world today exhibits a predilection for perpetual self-improvement. In particular, the book focuses on the forces underlying long-lasting growth in East Asia's Newly Industrialized Countries (NICs). Drawing from the experiences of Hong Kong, South Korea, Singapore and Taiwan, it questions whether public policy can contribute to removing barriers towards accumulation of wealth, and if so, what development policy should be put in place to remedy the existing distortions or market failure problems. Theoretical and empirical analyses are also used to broach other important issues, such as: * Why do some economies experience growth while others decline? * What are the major determinants of long-term growth and development? * Is human capital the main driving force? * Does international trade play a crucial role? This book will appeal to those with an interest in development and public policy

    Abstract: On the premise that pension provision in Europe will dramatically change over the next few decades, this book concentrates on the funded component of pension wealth, and specifically on annuities - financial products that, on the basis of actuarial equivalence, allow the conversion of wealth into a lifelong stream of income. Developing an Annuity Market in Europe provides an analysis of how longevity and return risks are dealt with, besides considering key features from both household and insurance company perspectives. It takes account of the fact that annuity markets are expected to attract much interest in future years given the prospective cuts in public pension expenditure. In order to fill the gap between shrinking pensions and desired retirement consumption, the authors argue, annuities must be well regulated and supplied with financially attractive products. These conditions hardly exist today: thin markets and scant interest prevail, information is incomplete and imperfect, products show significant disparities. The contributors to this book explore the causes of present malfunctioning and examine the changes that may give annuities a new and vital function, which, along with greater competition and greater regulation may significantly alter the present scene of pension finance. Finally, the book offers an overview of regulatory issues including transparency, prudential provisions, appropriate levels of guarantees, and administrative costs.

    Abstract: Agricultural Policy Reform and the WTO provides insights into the effects of the Uruguay Round WTO agreement on agricultural policy and global markets, and considers what is at stake in the Doha Development Agenda Round. The contributors to the book deal with a broad range of topics, including the evolution of domestic and trade policies in the last ten years across developed and developing countries and proposals made in the agricultural negotiation regarding market access, export subsidies and domestic support; new issues emergent in agricultural trade negotiations are also explored, including: * interaction between national regulatory systems and the deepening integration of the international trade regime * intellectual property rights protection * food safety * quality regulations * antidumping trade protection. Finally, the future of international trade relations is discussed, in particular the implications of enforcing domestic regulations to comply with international rules. This rich collection of research and analysis will be invaluable to researchers, academics and policymakers with an interest in agricultural policy analysis and international economics

    Abstract: Der Schutz nationaler Minderheiten bildet eine wichtige Herausforderung der staatlichen Innenpolitik, Außenpolitik und nicht zuletzt der Europapolitik. Obwohl in jüngerer Zeit sowohl auf der Ebene der Vereinten Nationen als auch im Rahmen des Europarats und der OSZE Instrumente zur Stärkung von Minderheitenrechten diskutiert bzw. geschaffen worden sind, besteht nach wie vor Unsicherheit über Reichweite, Anspruchsinhalte und Grenzen von Minderheitenrechten. Der Band, der aus einem von der Deutschen Kommission Justitia et Pax (Gerechtigkeit und Frieden) organisierten interdisziplinären Gesprächskreis hervorgegangen ist, reflektiert diese Situation und legt Beiträge zur ethischen Begründung, rechtlichen Verankerungen und zu historischen Erfahrungen mit Minderheitenrechten vor

    Abstract: Environmental change in general, and climatic change in particular, are likely to impact significantly upon resources such as water and soils, transforming present day landscapes and their ecological characteristics. As a consequence, disruptions of socio-economic activities in sensitive regions of the globe can be expected in coming decades. Agriculture is at particular risk, especially in areas where prolonged droughts, sea level rise, enhanced natural hazards, or extreme meteorological events such as floods or mudslides threaten marginal existence. Disruptions and risks may have large effects on population migration. Conversely, large-scale movements of people, goods or capital may also disrupt local environments and further contribute to social problems. This volume provides an ample overview of state-of-the-art understanding of the multi-dimensional phenomenon of migration, in the characterisation of migration drivers, in environmental and agro-economic case studies and modelling issues as well as socio-political analyses

    Note: Ist die intellektuelle Neue Rechte eine Gefahr für die Demokratie? Könnte es dieser Strömung gelingen, die politischen Koordinaten schleichend nach rechts außen zu verschieben und den Abschied von der "offenen Gesellschaft" einzuläuten? Zählt sie zu den Ideologieschmieden des Rechtsextremismus, und welchen Einfluss auf Politik und Medien übt sie aus? Fragen wie diese diskutieren 17 Autoren aus den Perspektiven der Sozialwissenschaften, des Verfassungsschutzes und des Journalismus. Ihre Antworten fallen höchst unterschiedlich aus. In allgemeinverständlicher Sprache lässt der von Prof. Dr. Wolfgang Gessenharter (Helmut-Schmidt-Universität Hamburg) und Dr. Thomas Pfeiffer (Verfassungsschutz Nordrhein-Westfalen) herausgegebene Band namhafte Experten zu Wort kommen, darunter Prof. Dr. Kurt Sontheimer (München), Prof. Dr. Christoph Butterwegge (Köln), Dr. Uwe Backes (Dresden), Prof. Dr. Roger Woods (Nottingham/UK) und Dr. Brigitte Bailer (Wien)

    Abstract: With contributions from leading thinkers such as J. Bhagwati and Robert Solow, this edited collection examines some hotly debated issues in today's world. The significance of globalization and its effects on welfare states is discussed and analyzed. A special chapter is devoted to terrorism, and it is explained why some people are willing to sacrifice their lives to gain 'heavenly goods'. The role of multinationals in the globalization process is examined as is the importance of changing and evolving social norms regarding work and leisure for the survival of today's welfare states

    Abstract: The 17 chapters in this book, which evolved from a conference on measuring the contributions of ITS sponsored by the California Department of Transportation in February 2002, examine the costs and benefits of ITS in an economic and business policy context. Section 1 examines the broad theme of how and what ITS contributes to the economy and how one makes a business case for ITS. Section 2 includes three chapters on ITS applications in mass transit. Section 3 explores ITS applications in the automobile/highway system. Section 4 considers integrative issues including how ITS is perceived and how it can be positioned to improve surface transportation. This volume will be especially useful to researchers and policy makers working in transportation, transportation engineering, and the economic analysis of transportation systems

    Abstract: This book provides rigorous analysis of the wide range of questions surrounding the role of international institutions in governing global business, especially multinational enterprises (MNEs). The analysis, both theoretical and empirical, focuses on the corporate governance of MNEs and to what extent their management takes into account the negative effects of their activities. Also discussed are: how nation states and international institutions control the activities of MNEs, and how the role and strategies of international institutions can be changed to minimise any negative effects without hampering the positive aspects and effects of MNEs

    Abstract: Internationalization of the world economy has made trade a key factor in the growth potential of nearly every nation's economy. Hence, economists have become increasingly interested in the determinants of international trade and competitiveness. Empirical Methods in International Trade captures the many aspects of this trend in globalization through practical techniques well-founded in economic theory. The authors, comprising some of the most influential applied international economists of their generation, use cutting-edge models to develop empirical approaches to critical aspects of economic interchange. These approaches are developed and explained carefully with the goal of making them accessible to a wide audience
