Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Die Dynamik der ökonomischen Entwicklung spiegelt sich in der ständigen Weiterentwicklung und Verfeinerung der Wirtschaftssprache wieder. Ebenso wie moderne, zukunftsorientierte Unternehmen nur noch in weltwirtschaftlichen Maßstäben planen und handeln, findet der wirtschaftswissenschaftliche und praktische Austausch zu einem immer größer werdenden Teil in internationalen Zusammenhänge statt. Der Leser wirtschaftswissenschaftlicher Fachliteratur stellt bald fest, daß die ständige zunehmende Fülle von Zeitschriften und Monographien zu einem bedeutenden Teil in englischer Sprache erscheint, die auch die Grundlage für einen "grenzlosen" fachwissenschaftlichen Diskurs darstellt. Der Einfluß der angloamerikanischen Forschung auf die Wirtschaftswissenschaften und die veröffentlichte Literatur ist dabei unübersehbar. Aus diesem Grunde ist das vorliegende Wörterbuch, das Studenten, Dozenten und Praktikern eine Hilfe für die Bewältigung der aktuellen Fachliteratur an die Hand gibt, speziell auf den amerikanischen Bereich zugeschnitten, wobei berücksichtigt wird, daß das Studium der Wirtschaftswissenschaften in zunehmenden Maße tätigkeitsfeldorientiert betrieben wird. Das Lexikon geht knapp aber gezielt auf wirtschaftswissenschaftliche Belange ein. In diesem Sinne ergänzt es bereits vorhandene Lexika, ohne sie zu ersetzen. Es ist das Ergebnis einer engen Kooperation zwischen Hochschullehrern, wissenschaftlichen Mitarbeitern und engagierten Studenten aus dem Integrierten Auslandsstudium.

Download or read book Refugees Welcome written by Jan-Jonathan Bock and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2019-01-02 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The arrival in 2015 and 2016 of over one million asylum seekers and refugees in Germany had major social consequences and gave rise to extensive debates about the nature of cultural diversity and collective life. This volume examines the responses and implications of what was widely seen as the most significant and contested social change since German reunification in 1990. It combines in-depth studies based on anthropological fieldwork with analyses of the longer trajectories of migration and social change. Its original conclusions have significance not only for Germany but also for the understanding of diversity and difference more widely.

Download or read book The Americanization Westernization of Austria written by Anton Pelinka and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-12 with total page 327 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Political, economic, social, and cultural modernization dramatically transformed twentieth-century Austria. Innovative new methods of production and management, such as the assembly line, changed Austrian business after World War I, much as the Marshall Plan shaped the economy after World War II. At the same time, jazz, Hollywood movies, television programming, and mass commodities were as popular in Austria as elsewhere in Western Europe. Even political campaigns followed American trends. All this occurred despite the fact that in West Germany, American nostrums and models had been rejected, modified, or "translated" into milder versions. Ultimately, Austria was "Western Europeanized" when it joined the European Union in 1995. How Western are the Austrians? This volume analyzes trends toward Americanization and Westernization in Austria throughout the twentieth century. Reinhold Wagnleitner's lead essay studies the foreign politics of American pop culture. Anna Schober and Monika Bernold analyze the influence of Hollywood movies and television on postwar Austrian society. Reinhard Sieder follows changing discourses on family life, while Ingrid Bauer looks at American influences on Austrian women. Maria-Regina Kecht, Kurt Drexel, and Christina Hainzl follow the American impact on Austrian literature, opera, and art. Banker Anton Fink examines American banking and finance practices. Andre Pfoertner and Matthias Fuchs study the Americanization of Austrian business and tourism. Helmut Lackner describes how well-heeled Austrian travelers to the United States brought back innovative American production methods and other ideas gleaned from world expositions before World War I. American influences on Austrian politics and political science are dissected by Gunter Bischof, Martin Kofler, Fritz Plasser, and Anton Pelinka. The Americanization of Vienna is the subject of journalist Armin Thurnher's essay. Comparisons with West Germany are presented by Michael Hochgesc
Download or read book Technology Commercialization and Gender written by Pooran Wynarczyk and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-08-23 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the gender dimension in technology commercialization through a collection of papers by internationally renowned scholars in the USA, Mexico and Europe. Technology, Commercialization and Gender looks at various gender imbalances in this key innovation area and demonstrates that the construction of gendered identities within male-dominated work environments such as technology commercialization is a complex and lengthy process, often faced with institutional culture obstacles. More gender awareness and openness along all stages of the innovation chain, as well as more research and policy interventions are needed to ensure better use of highly-skilled human capital in knowledge-based economies around the globe.
Download or read book The Oxford Handbook of Islamic Theology written by Sabine Schmidtke and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2016-03-31 with total page 864 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Within the field of Islamic Studies, scientific research of Muslim theology is a comparatively young discipline. Much progress has been achieved over the past decades with respect both to discoveries of new materials and to scholarly approaches to the field. The Oxford Handbook of Islamic Theology provides a comprehensive and authoritative survey of the current state of the field. It provides a variegated picture of the state of the art and at the same time suggests new directions for future research. Part One covers the various strands of Islamic theology during the formative and early middle periods, rational as well as scripturalist. To demonstrate the continuous interaction among the various theological strands and its repercussions (during the formative and early middle period and beyond), Part Two offers a number of case studies. These focus on specific theological issues that have developed through the dilemmatic and often polemical interactions between the different theological schools and thinkers. Part Three covers Islamic theology during the later middle and early modern periods. One of the characteristics of this period is the growing amalgamation of theology with philosophy (Peripatetic and Illuminationist) and mysticism. Part Four addresses the impact of political and social developments on theology through a number of case studies: the famous mi?na instituted by al-Ma'mun (r. 189/813-218/833) as well as the mihna to which Ibn 'Aqil (d. 769/1367) was subjected; the religious policy of the Almohads; as well as the shifting interpretations throughout history (particularly during Mamluk and Ottoman times) of the relation between Ash'arism and Maturidism that were often motivated by political motives. Part Five considers Islamic theological thought from the end of the early modern and during the modern period.
Download or read book The Rush to German Unity written by Konrad H. Jarausch and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 1994-02-24 with total page 301 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The bringing down of the Berlin Wall is one of the most vivid images and historic events of the late twentieth century. The reunification of Germany has transformed the face of Europe. In one stunning year, two separate states with clashing ideologies, hostile armies, competing economies, and incompatible social systems merged into one. The speed and extent of the reunification was so great that many people are still trying to understand the events. Initial elation has given way to the realities and problems posed in reuniting two such different systems. The Rush to German Unity presents a clear historical reconstruction of the confusing events. It focuses on the dramatic experiences of the East German people but also explores the decisions of the West German elite. Konrad H. Jarausch draws on the rich sources produced by the collapse of the GDR and on the public debate in the FRG. Beginning with vivid media images, the text probes the background of a problem, traces its treatment and resolution and then reflects on its implications. Combining an insider's insights with an outsider's detachment, the interpretation balances the celebratory and the catastrophic views. The unification process was democratic, peaceful and negotiated. But the merger was also bureaucratic, capitalistic and one-sided. Popular pressures and political manipulation combined to create a rush to unity that threatened to escape control. The revolution moved from a civic rising to a national movement and ended up as reconstruction from the outside. An ideal source for general readers and students, The Rush to German Unity explores whether solving the old German problem has merely created new difficulties.
