Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware -Peace education is the study of how to keep peace in all of its forms and conditions. It is the process of transmitting knowledge, skills, and behaviours in order to promote peace. Peace education attempts to promote peace and discourage violence. Peace education entails not only the absence of war, bloodshed, and rioting, but also the development of skills and behaviours that improve students' ability to solve problems constructively. The basic goal of peace education is to change a war-based society into a peace-based culture. Respect for caste, creed, and sex is promoted through peace education. It encourages people to think differently about violence and conflicts, and it has a constructive attitude toward achieving the objective of peace. Peace education also promotes a sense of peace, nonviolence, and social justice in order to eliminate prejudices, violent behaviour, bullying, and civil wars, among other things. Peace education is more than just a subject that is taught in school. It serves as a tool for achieving social justice, living in harmony with one another, adhering to moral rights and obligations, and acknowledging one's relationship with all other beings.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The objective of this study is to analyze the possible consequences and regulatory challenges of the increase in off-balance sheet operations in banks and the expansion of the shadow banking system, alerting about potential implications to systemic risk. Particularities of off-balance-sheet operations are discussed, such as accounting for contingent liabilities and financial instruments and consolidated financial reporting standards. The typology of off-balance-sheet transactions, guarantees, contingent commitments, and derivative contracts, is appreciated and the economic hypotheses that would justify the expansion of these activities in the banking system. Also, in off-balance sheet operations, the leading financial risks that these activities imply for financial institutions are identified. The shadow banking system, after its delimitation, is appreciated as regards its evolution and threats to the financial system. The study concludes by proposing that the prudential regulation should be rethought, emphasizing what we learned from the crisis of 2008 and how mechanisms can be created to deal with risks associated with off-balance-sheet and shadow banking operations. 76 pp. Englisch.

Fr., the anamorph of an ascomycete fungus (Botryotinia fuckeliana Whetzel). Gray mold development on grape berries depends on the genetic structure of the pathogen population but is also driven by some key factors, including climatic conditions, cluster architecture and berry susceptibility. Numerous treatments with fungicides are required for management of the gray mold which intensifies the risk of resistance development since B.cinerea has a high risk of resistance development. The forecasting model for B. cinerea Pers. Which will be shown here is only pioneering attempt to prevent development of gray mold. The white grapevine varieties Smederevka and Zilavka was continuously observed at last three years in the two experimental fields located at Smilica and Sopot, Kavadarci, Republic of North Macedonia.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -A famous quote by Desiderius Erasmus says, 'Prevention is better than Cure'. The fight against corruption in Nigeria has always been directed solely towards its cure while neglecting its prevention which as a result, has not recorded any noticeable success over the years. To cure something means looking for solutions after it has already happened. This is the model currently being used in Nigeria to fight corruption, evident by the dependence on prosecution strategies and clamp down on perpetrators. This old model relies on using fear to deter people from corruption, which has proven ineffective. On the other hand, to prevent something means deploying different intentional strategies towards stopping it from happening in the first place, which is Cressey's model proposed in this book for the fight against corruption in Nigeria. Cressey's model places more emphasis on prevention rather than cure. 108 pp. Englisch.

However, there is an archaeological discovery at the Al Ubaid archaeological site, where many pre-Sumerian 7,000-year-old artifacts were found, depicting humanoid figures with lizard characteristics. The Ubaidian culture is a prehistoric culture in Mesopotamia that dates between 4000 and 5500 BC. As with the Sumerians, the origins of the Ubaidian people are unknown. They lived in large village settlements in mud-brick houses and they had developed architecture, agriculture and farmed the land using irrigation. The domestic architecture included large T-shaped houses; open courtyards, paved streets, as well as food processing equipment. Some of these villages began to develop into towns; temples began to appear, as well as monumental buildings such as in Eridu, Ur and Uruk, the major sites of the Sumerian Civilization. According to the Sumerian texts, Ur was believed to be the first city. The main site where the unusual artifacts were discovered is called Tell Al 'Ubaid - although figurines were also found in Ur and Eridu. 60 pp. Englisch.
