Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware -The combination of organizational resources and capabilities needs to be developed, deployed and protected in order to enhance organizational performance. The performance among organizations differs as a result of their different knowledge bases and differing capabilities in developing and deploying organizational knowledge. The attention is focused on the implicit knowledge and skills required to co-ordinate heterogeneous resources in distinct, organization-specific resource bundles in such a way that current capabilities are leveraged and new capabilities are created. The development of a new product and service is an example of an organization attaining a competitive advantage resulting from learning processes that have been incurred with the integration of knowledge management processes and organizational assets. The trend for knowledge-based organizations is to move towards knowledge adaptation where knowledge serves two vital functions within an organization, acting as resources for organizational growth, and providing valuable assets for organizational survival.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 92 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware -Developing countries heavily depend on export earnings to satisfy their import requirements. Ethiopian export, like many other developing countries, is concentrated into few primary products that are mainly agricultural. Studies suggest that such commodity concentration could result in fluctuation of export proceeds, which in turn will affect growth and capital formation of the country. In this book Ethiopia''s export earnings instability is analyzed by employing country specific model using a sufficiently large time-series data covering the period 1962 to 2008. The contribution of the major agricultural export commodities of the country to the instability have been identified. The book also attempts to compare the three different socio-political periods of the country within this period. The book helps shed some light on the policy formulation regarding export diversification.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 76 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware -Through the analysis of 'Pasos bajo el agua' (Steps under Water) and 'Bosquejo de alturas' (Impressions of Heights), both from the Argentine writer Alicia Kozameh, Ana Luiza Libanio Dantas depicts an embodied ecriture feminine. The Autonomous Sex: Female Body and Voice in Alicia Kozameh''s Writing of Resistance will guide you through the reading of the literary texts while analyzing theories from French feminists Helen Cixous and Luce Irigaray, as well as Mikhail Bakhtin''s, and Michel Foucault''s theories. The historical facts drawn by the author build a background to the understanding of women empowerment through language within power relationships established in patriarchal societies. The literary excerpts exemplify the empowered women''s language (ecriture feminine), which is written through the female body as part of heteroglossia, rather than being exclusive to women. Ecriture feminine is a legitimate voice in social discourses deconstructing the male/female dichotomy, and establishing a horizontal and dialectic relationship between different discursive voices. The Autonomous Sex. proposes reconstruction of gender relationships through heteroglossia.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 80 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware -During 2002 and early 2003 the international debate over Iraq became a major topic throughout the world. The debate became contentious, splitting long standing allies between those who supported the military option against Iraq and those who did not. The United States was at the forefront of the military option movement, while Germany was the leader of the anti-war movement. In Germany massive protests against the war occurred weekly. Many Germans recalled their own history of war to justify their opposition to any military action against Iraq. To compound the issue even further was the fact Germany in the fall of 2002 was holding national elections and re-election of the ruling government appeared bleak. The ruling parties in Germany tapped into the anti-war movement and in the process used personal attacks against President Bush to win political points. The dispute over Iraq severely strained and tested German and American relations. The intent of this thesis is to understand the nature of German opposition and to determine if the previously stated explanations fit the case of German opposition.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 92 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware -Forest is one of the key word or construct of development discourse and recently, in 1992, it has been incorporated in Agenda 21 of Earth Summit where the participation and rights of indigenous people, particularly women, has been emphasised and gender equality has been discursively ensured. With the objective of showing the discrepancies between the statements and actual effect of the policy, following the field investigation this study has found that gender relations prevailing in CHT have been negatively affected following the implementation of the policy and this effect has been intersecting with age, socio-economic status and gender. The outcome was such that the socio- economic gap between different groups within the indigenous community has widened; women, particularly the poor became poorer; old women lost their assets and became subject to the mercy of household members. All in all, development policy instead of developing the indigenous people, it worsened their living conditions, widened the socio- economic gaps and narrowed the bargaining power of women.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 76 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware -The print market has been rapidly growing and setting price records. Art prints form a separate and independent segment of art market. Prints are produced in multiples where each peace forms an original work of art, making them highly collectible and simultaneously highly attractive for unscrupulous traders. From the legal point of view art prints is a threshold sphere which stands on the border of copyright law and consumer protection law. Neither of these fields of law provide full coverage and satisfactory regulation of fine art multiples in Europe. Increasing amount of unfair commercial practices of art dealers has formed a basis for such deep research and analysis of current legislative situation in the sphere of fine art prints. The author shows that there exists the need for more precise regulation in Europe and as a logical consequence the Draft Directive is proposed. The analysis should be helpful for art market practitioners, as well as especially useful to collectors, occasional buyers, or anyone else who may be considering making luxurious and beneficial investment in fine art prints.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 100 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware -Deteriorating environmental conditions around the world have indicated that our planetary and ecological sustainability may be at risk. In light of this, the quest for sustainable human development has been a major influential concept of our time. Despite extensive international endorsement, many are concerned that little has been achieved to implement an effective strategy of sustainable development. There are few case studies that exhibit widely accepted elements of sustainability. In this thesis I evaluate the controversial, unique but mostly overlooked case of Cuba. With the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1989, Cuba was forced to pursue an independent national-development strategy. Since the declaration of the 1992 Earth Summit in Rio, Cuba has been an outspoken leader and innovative practitioner of sustainable-development strategies and continues to bolster the highest rates of biodiversity of any Caribbean nation. In this thesis I try to argue that Cuban development policy after the collapse of the Soviet Union demonstrates an innovative interpretation of sustainable development.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 56 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware -In this study, the geometric Additive market models are considered. In general, these market models are incomplete, that means: the perfect replication of derivatives, in the usual sense, is not possible. In this study, it is shown that the market can be completed by new artificial assets which are called ¿power-jump assets¿ based on the power-jump processes of the underlying Additive process. Then, the hedging portfolio for claims whose payoff function depends on the prices of the stock and the power-jump assets at maturity is derived. In addition to the previous completion strategy, it is also shown that, using a static hedging formula, the market can also be completed by considering portfolios with a continuum of call options with different strikes and the same maturity. What is more, the portfolio optimization problem is considered in the enlarged market. The optimization problem consists of choosing an optimal portfolio in such a way that the largest expected utility of the terminal wealth is obtained. For particular choices of the equivalent martingale measure, it is shown that the optimal portfolio consists only of bonds and stocks.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 84 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware -This master''s thesis book studies local alternative agri-food networks in Pirkanmaa region in Finland, where organic food production is in focus. Three entrepreneurs have been chosen for the research, the berry wine producer Teisko''s Wine Lodge; the programme and accommodation provider Knuutila Manor House; and Restaurant Henriks where safe and tasty food are prepared from local organic ingredients. Personal interviews were conducted with entrepreneurs, based on five semi-structured themes with structured interview questions. Based on the research questions, results demonstrate that entrepreneurs benefit from joining local alternative agri-food networks. However, there are common characteristics between the firms, the studied enterprises cannot be generalized. The three entrepreneurs are unique and have special values within their own local networks. Even though the entrepreneurs do not consider themselves green activists, observation shows their interests to be environmental entrepreneurs. The analysis could be helpful for those who study networking and should be especially useful to professionals investigating local alternative agri-food networks and organic food production.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 84 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware -A considerable number of studies on historical and some third world populations have reached a magnificent consensus that both mortality and fertility do respond to economic changes in a surprisingly shared pattern. Such response, however, remains a great deal of controversy, obscure and inconsistency in the secular industrialized countries. As a result, a great variety of alternative hypotheses have been developed to account for the secular decline in mortality and fertility. While there is widespread interest in this subject with particular focus on short-term fluctuations, I further study the impact of severe economic crises on these demographic variables.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 76 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware -The question of whether or not communities could and should manage their own resources according to their own custom, knowledge and technologies is an issue that has been analyzed from divergent perspectives. Recent academic attempts remark the positive role of ¿community'' in natural resources conservation; however, local and indigenous populations have been criticized by anthropological and historical research, arguing that communities are not as environmentally-friendly as it has been stated. Either constrained by socio-economic and political processes or romanticized by advocates of community-based approaches; this academic work seeks to answer if is the community''s fate to disappear in the context of natural resources conservation, or under the pressures of current neo-liberal processes Or is it possible to enhance the positive role of communities in the conservation and management of natural resources. Based on a review of different theoretical perspectives, Problematizing the Role of Community in Natural Resource Management assess the role of community in forest conservation using as a case study the top-down management systems of the Nevado de Toluca National Park (NTNP).Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 72 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware -The growth of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in developing countries have been challenged mainly by the widening development disparity between urban and rural areas. There is little awareness of the actual rural needs or the problems facing rural SMEs, as policies are pre-occupied with urban issues. To mitigate the urban-rural development disparity, an understanding of the actual needs of rural areas is critical. This understanding is particularly important as initial steps in promoting electronic commerce (e-Commerce), a technology that can help to foster economic development, particularly in rural areas. It was the aim of this study to examine how e- Commerce is being adopted by SMEs ¿ or issues that inhibit them to adopt ¿ by comparing the situation in urban versus rural areas in developing countries, with Indonesia as case study. The results of this study indicate that the urban and rural Indonesian SME sector is far from homogeneous. A set of implications of policy was formulated to assist Indonesian Government and other government in developed and developing countries to promote the adoption and use of e-Commerce by urban and rural SMEs.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 384 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware -This study explores several western feminist theories that have been applied to African women, and demonstrates how Clenora Hudson-Weems''s theory of Africana Womanism has its basis in African culture instead of the more commonly used western one. It also examines Chela Sandoval''s 'Methodology of the Oppressed,' in order to address postmodern power structure and methods of resistance. It suggests a combination of Clenora Hudson-Weems''s Africana Womanism and Chela Sandoval''s postmodern 'Methodology of the Oppressed,' for which it proposes the designation, Postmodern Africana Womanism. With that as a tool, this work explores the following novels: Yvonne Vera''s Butterfly Burning, Mariama Bâ''s Scarlet Song, and Ng¿g¿ wa Thiong''o''s Devil on the Cross. The aim is to examine the new power dynamics in Africa, and how the failure to recognize, or belated recognition, of them leads the main female characters to tragic ends. Central to the argument is the dissolution of traditional African cultures and the effects of western culture in the African context.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 64 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware -The World has become so much smaller than it was in the middle of the 20th century that the distinction between 'domestic' and 'international' marketing has become irrelevant. No practitioner of marketing who has a website ¿whether a veteran or a new graduate- is sheltered from becoming 'global' by virtue of the appropriately called World-Wide Web. A Home Page is a window open to everybody, anywhere. The Web is the culmination of a process of rapid advances in worldwide communication and transportation. Academias, authors and businesses are rushing to prepare the 21st century marketers to handle the technological aspects of this revolution. Few, however, are addressing the fact that the discipline of Marketing itself, as it used to be taught (The Marketing Mix, a.k.a 'The Four P¿s', etc.), needs to change to reflect that going 'global' adds a new dimension which elements change in every country or market and are totally outside the control of the marketer (Economy, Geography, Culture and the Law), hence this book¿s theme ('Two-Dimensional Marketing').Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 92 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware -The choice of staffing levels is a decision faced by virtually every organization. When making this decision for a complex system, what methodology can be employed And can theory guide the decisions This book describes the staffing level analysis for a company''s product inspection process¿a complex tandem queue with machines or operators working in parallel at each station, dynamic interaction between the inspection rates at two of the stations, and stochastic arrivals of the items to be inspected. The minimum staffing levels for various product volumes need to be determined to ensure a reliable inspection system with nearly-zero probability of system congestion. Both simulation modeling and queuing theory approximation are applied to the analysis. The critical topology of the queuing system, the nature of the problem, and the methodology for their solution are portable to other environments. The methodology in this study should be useful to practitioners who are considering improving the operations of their service or production systems through capacity planning, and also be of interest to researchers in the field of service operations.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 52 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware -Emotional life sparks the human imagination. A large part of what we do, and how we do it, is influenced by emotions. Recognizing that cultures differ in how they are organized, what they value and devalue, what aspects of the self they promote, one would expect that the emotional lives of people in different cultures would differ as well. This book attempts to identify cultural variation in the display of emotions, it seeks the answer to the question 'In precisely what way are the displays of emotions influenced by culture ' The described research looks at the cultural differences in emotional behavior between the United States, Bulgaria and Japan - three countries that are very distinctive in their historical, geographical, and economical development. This book is for those of you who want to gain a deeper understanding of the regulation processes of emotions cross-culturally. Such understanding would help the reader not only to interpret behavior in international settings, but also to be comfortable with the ambiguity that can arise from emotional expressions which seem to be out of place, or inappropriate to a particular situation.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 100 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware -This study will discuss objectivity also in reference to the problems that journalists face when they cover news stories. It may be that journalists may have problems searching for stories not because they do not embrace journalistic principles of fairness, clarity and objectivity, but because of the way in which facts are presented to them by news sources. There have been some cases whereby media audiences have wrongly been made to think that journalists are biased in their coverage. For example, the 2003 Iraq invasion by US-led forces, where correspondents were made to practice embedded journalism is a good example of how circumstances could force a journalist to succumb to soldiers' demands of keeping their war causalities away from their cameras. It is worth noting, however, that being biased for a journalist in such a war situation could be circumstantial in the sense that an American journalist covering a story in Iraqi's capital, Baghdad, would be regarded as a spy by Iraqi's troops. Likewise, an Iraqi journalist chasing stories in the coalition force's camps in Iraqi's capital would be treated as a traitor by the Iraqi people.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 72 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware -This study analyzes the post-1980 policies of social housing in Turkey with a particular emphasis on the period after 2000. It examines these policies with reference to urban transformation and gentrification attempts on the one hand and social policies directed at the redefinition of the position of the poor in urban society on the other hand. The aim is to historicize the developments taking place in the low-income housing in the context of post-1980 capitalist urbanization with a special emphasis on the relation between the squatter settlements (gecekondus) and state regulation. Bearing the peculiarities of the Turkish case and the political and economic climate of neo-liberalism in mind, this books aims at showing that the post-2000 low-income housing policies reflect a change in the patterns of regulating the urban poor through housing measures that has dramatic implications relevant to the overall organization of the urban space.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 80 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware -There is a segment of the population, termed the underclass or socially excluded, who our current public policies do not reach. Despite universal and even targeted programming, youth who have experienced pervasive and often inter-generational exclusion still form the majority of those who find themselves at the end-of-the-line, in services areas such as social assistance and corrections. Although ethnographic studies have documented the life circumstances of specific marginalized groups, quantitative analyzes suggesting concrete policy and program directions are severely lacking. This book develops a life-course analysis of the interconnected webs of influence that push a minority of youth along entrenched trajectories of exclusion from school, extra-curricular activities, family and peers, while the majority progress toward inclusion. Even though no one person or group could be said to be completely responsible, we are all implicated in perpetuating or conversely combating the exclusionary practices that underlie our most severe social problems. Consequently, this book will be of interest to a broad range of readers including parents, teachers, policy makers and professionals.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 96 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware -Most developing countries are faced with high population growth that strongly undermine their achievements in economic growth. These high population growth rates are often sustained by high fertility. Hence,fertility is considered to be the most important component of population dynamics, playing a major role in determining the size and the overall structure of populations in developing countries. If developing countries like Ethiopia are to achieve lower population growth, effective policies should be designed to bring fertility rate to a desirable level. This calls for the need to understand the underlying factors that determine the fertility decision of households at a micro level. Using count data models, this book presents a detailed analysis of the factors that determine fertility in urban Ethiopia. Panel and cross- sectional household data are analyzed using appropriate econometric tools. The analysis presented in this book presents population policy directions needed to bring about a low population growth rate through reduced fertility.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 76 pp. Englisch.

Our approach focuses particularly on the evolving relationship between China''s NSI and the country''s overall market socialist social and economic system and on related policy challenges. In addition to generating technical progress, China''s development strategy shall also take into account the challenge of establishing a model of innovation compatible with an equitable pattern of income distribution and with environmental sustainability, thereby paving the way to the eventual evolution towards a higher and more developed form of socialism In this context, we propose to consider the utility of nonlinear models of the POLIS (positive feed back innovation system) class, which are suitable to chart strategically the market socialist course, as their internal logic is consistent with China''s unique catch up strategy.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 84 pp. Englisch.
