Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. Ethische Geldinstitute erfahren in den letzten Jahren vermehrt Aufmerksamkeit, was sich in steigenden Wachstumszahlen der jeweiligen Banken niederschlaegt. Nicht selten werden sie als Hoffnungstraeger eines Wandels diskutiert, der eine gerechtere Gestaltung des Banken- und Finanzwesens stuetzt. Der Band systematisiert die Kritik und die Praktiken ethischer Banken in Deutschland und fragt nach denkonstitutiven sozialen und normativen Strukturen. Darueber hinaus werden Herausforderungen und Potenziale einer Transformation im Bankenwesen am Beispiel von Investitions- und Anlageentscheidungen analysiert. Im Ergebnis zeigt sich, dass ethische Banken durchaus neue Formen der Arbeitsorganisation und der Unternehmenspolitik befoerdern koennen, dass die Vision einer Integration ethischer Selbstverpflichtung und gesellschaftlicher Verantwortung aber dort an Grenzen stoesst, wo sie mit den weiterhin dominanten Markt- und Wachstumslogiken konfrontiert werden.

Condición: Hervorragend. Zustand: Hervorragend | Sprache: Englisch | Produktart: Bücher | In her debut essay collection, Sarah K. Lenz explores the question: How do you live knowing you're going to die? Lenz touches on moments when death brushed near, including a house fire, a car accident, and a police shooting, but in each case, the violent and tragic are interwoven with curiosity and insight. With clarity and grace, Lenz takes on a wide-range of topics. From the discovery of a post-mortem photograph of her great-uncles who were killed by lightning to the quotidian pancake-making days with her preschooler son while the COVID-19 pandemic raged, Lenz confronts the complexities of being sandwiched between aging parents and a young child, while also navigating her own thyroid cancer diagnosis. In the midst of this, Lenz finds herself comforting her father, who's fixated with where to spread his ashes in "Driving the Section Line, " and imagining all the ways her baby can die when suffering postpartum depression in "So Many Ways." Though the subjects are serious, often life or death matters, Lenz tells these stories with warmth and wisdom. The narrative is buoyed by breathtaking honesty-and a bit of the grotesque-like a misguided attempt to cook a whole hog's head from her beloved, late grandmother's recipe. This book is a moving, heartfelt meditation on how to face mortality, how to grieve, but most importantly, how to awaken to the ephemeral beauty of the world. This book is a powerful reminder that what will outlast us is those we love.…

Prefekt. Condición: Sehr gut. Gebraucht - Sehr gut Sg - Ungelesenes Mängelexemplar, gestempelt, mit leichten Lagerspuren - Der Ausbruch von Covid-19 im Dezember 2019 versetzte Gesellschaften weltweit in einen Ausnahmezustand. Von der rasanten Verbreitung des Virus geht eine doppelte Risikohaftigkeit aus: Durch die Pandemie werden Gesellschaften einerseits in einen besonders riskanten politischen, ökonomischen und sozialen Zustand versetzt. Andererseits wird das fundamentale Element menschlichen Zusammenlebens, das »in-Gesellschaft-sein«, zu einem gesundheitlichen Risiko für bestimmte soziale Gruppen und Subjekte, was wiederum den Ausgangspunkt für weitreichende politische, ökonomische und soziale Risiken bildet. Diese empirische Studie zu den gesellschaftlichen und sozialen Begleitfolgen der Pandemie untersucht in Interviews und thematischen Essays, wie Menschen in Deutschland die hervorgebrachten subjektiven und kollektiven Risiken wahrnehmen und bearbeiten.…
