Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware -Today, social and solidarity economy (SSE) organizations, particularly cooperatives, are increasingly important to the economic, social and political fabric of Morocco. In fact, they represent an important part of the country's economic and social development programs. Their attractiveness has increased notably with the launch of the National Initiative for Human Development (INDH) in 2005, which gave new life to social entrepreneurship. This has resulted in a dramatic increase in the number of cooperatives with a rate of over 220% between 2005 and 2015. Given the benefits that this sector generates in the development of human beings as well as fragile territories and its weight in the economic and social fabric of the country, our work attempts to concretely assess the contribution of cooperatives to the socio-economic development of their territory. To do this, we opted for a qualitative approach to exploratory character, based on semi-directive interviews conducted with the leaders of cooperatives studied in the province of El Hajeb.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 52 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware -This book is a practical and detailed presentation of all the contours of the dissolution of a limited liability company in the framework of Ohada standards. The proposed approach is pragmatic and sheds light on the legal, fiscal, social and commercial consequences of the dissolution of a limited liability company. Its originality lies in the fact that it is conceived in a practical case of dissolution of the Congolese subsidiary (DRC) of a company under Dutch law. This book will be useful for the company director, the legal practitioner and the student in management or law.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 76 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware -This book examines the link between bank liquidity and the financing of the economies of the six CEMAC countries between 1987 and 2007 through a panel data analysis. In the model inspired by Demirgüç-Kunt & Huizinga (1999), credits to the economy are the explained variable and correspond to the financing of the economy, while financial deepening, reserves, net foreign assets (NFA), inflation and lending rates are the explanatory variables. The results indicate that of all the explanatory variables, only reserves and NVA are significant. The former positively affects the financing of the economy, while the latter has a negative impact on financing. Based on our results, we recommend an increase in reserves for banks by ensuring the accumulation of reserves, in addition there should be a threshold of net external assets of banks set by the BEAC and finally a community fund supplied by the CEMAC member states.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 68 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware -The Moroccan Kingdom is very rich in local products: dates, figs, argan oil, saffron, honey . products that have always been present in Moroccan homes sometimes little often, have managed to return in force in recent years thanks in particular to the multiplication of cooperatives. As a result, a national strategy for the development of the social and solidarity economy has been put in place, outlining a roadmap for public action in favor of the social and solidarity economy that is comprehensive, concerted and harmonious, promoting synergy and complementarity between the actions of the various public actors in the social economy. Among other things, the ultimate goals of this strategy are to facilitate the emergence of an efficient and structured social and solidarity economy capable of playing a full role in the fight against poverty, precariousness and exclusion, to contribute to an integrated territorial development based on the rational exploitation and enhancement of local wealth and potential as well as to improve the visibility and the knowledge of the sectorBooks on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 92 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware -The greatness of a united Africa will be achieved through the union of its micro-states whose borders are the result of colonization. But beyond this great continental space, the true greatness lies in the values or virtues that the African peoples embody. The exploration with discernment and rectification of African traditions, leads to the rapprochement of all its populations in an African Union. And in the face of the great challenges of development and the enormous dangers of this world, it is now necessary to rely on the political and organic unity ensured by the federation of its states: the Community of African States to be built. This African Unity, which must be encouraged by other peoples outside the African continent, will allow Africa to better participate in the conduct of world affairs, to contribute to global progress, to defend its identity by bringing its grain of salt, through its model of humanism, so that all together, with other civilizations of the world, we can make this world beautiful. To achieve this, young scholars and elites in various activities must play a leading role.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 56 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware -An architect by training, I currently work as a mediator. A question I am often asked is why an architect became a mediator The profession of architect is not only about drawing plans. It requires a lot of 'feeling' to understand what the clients want. The architect must be able to detect the need underlying the request. We are permanently between the clients, the contractors and the administrations. The architect is therefore, by virtue of his function, also a mediator. The architect's ideas become concrete in drawings. As far as writing is concerned, it is the transposition of its meaning into signs. Does the result of a mediation have to be written For me, there is no binary answer to this question. I would therefore say neither yes nor no. Writing implies the capacity of man to pass from language to its conversion into symbols having for object to convey the word and to share it.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 76 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware -In Côte d'Ivoire, decentralization is a process that accelerated following the economic crisis of the 1980s and under pressure from donors. It is based on arguments of efficiency, rationality, responsiveness and its capacity to increase community participation. From the 2000s onwards, devolution has been deepened by the creation of several types of local governments and the transfer and distribution of powers from the state to them. However, the appropriation and implementation of these competencies are lacking, resulting in the fragmentation of the planning and coordination of local health activities, and a weakness in accountability mechanisms and quality of care. In short, the operationalization of the deconcentration/devolution pair in the health sector is a complex process that must be implemented in an incremental, participatory, mixed manner combining top-down and bottom-up approaches. It must take into account the interests of the various stakeholders through a participatory planning process and consensual coordination of local activities.VDM Verlag, Dudweiler Landstraße 99, 66123 Saarbrücken 72 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware -I am talking about vulnerable people with emphasis on sex workers who are unaffected and HIV positive and who do not have access to health care living in the border province of the Democratic Republic of Congo. The aim of this book is not to be as exhaustive as possible, but rather to inventory, in a general way, the problems of prevention and screening as well as access to care for vulnerable people, through different contributions and various testimonies. It is therefore a collection of subjective points of view, with recommendations to be found in each point. I dedicate the book to the reader of the whole world, the researcher, partner, health professional as well as the decision maker.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 60 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware -The objective of this study was to identify the causes of under-reporting of adverse drug events in hospitals in Cameroon. From a strategic point of view, we focused our work on three points: firstly, the evaluation of the knowledge of health professionals in pharmacovigilance; this study revealed an insufficient level of knowledge in pharmacovigilance among the categories of health professionals. Then the determination of their attitudes towards the manifestations of adverse drug events; it emerged that health professionals had a positive attitude towards ADRs in hospitals, that the proportion of adverse events varied according to the type of hospital and that the level of notification was the same in all reference levels. Finally, the factors that hinder the functioning of pharmacovigilance in hospitals were identified.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 72 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware -This reflection is based on the desire to deconstruct what we will call the imperialism of the educational institution in Morocco, which is based on a combination of 'identity' and 'sovereignty' imperatives and so-called principles of openness. The former set the ethical and political framework, and have been resolutely and progressively aligned, from independence to the present day, with the normative discourse of religious morality and social constraints. The latter are distilled by French interference, which persists because of the economic hegemony of its language. The policies of the Francophonie carried out by the educational cooperation services of the French Embassy are strongly involved in the pedagogical orientations, at all school and university levels. They defend, in a very official way, what we will call a transnational neoliberal populism whose effects on all the educational systems of the formerly colonised countries are catastrophic.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 52 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware -This book is a collection of life stories of young people followed in the framework of the 'Aide Sociale à l'Enfance', co-written with the author. Their stories are not only a testimony to those who will read them, but also to themselves. For they become aware of their skills and abilities that they discover by telling themselves. Through the stories of these young people, the reader will realize the value of educational support, which is not only intended to help them fit into the norms of social life, but also and above all to contribute to their recognition as 'unique and different subjects'. This, it seems to me, is the very meaning of educational accompaniment, which has as its ultimate objective to allow each person accompanied to emancipate themselves and to express their humanity with pride. This is a book that is addressed not only to social workers, but also to socio-educational institutions, political decision-makers, and to anyone concerned with the emancipation of young people in difficulty.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 140 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware -Jocelyne, my sister, a simple, clear, concise book that can provide benefits if you take the time to assimilate it mentally. The author is Jocelyne's brother. Intimately linked, they had a spontaneous and reciprocal devotion for each other through the most upsetting moments of their lives. This story goes beyond the succession of facts that allow us to understand what the anecdote hides. It is not the story of an exemplary life nor of grandiose events, but of overwhelming emotions, bold decisions, very ordinary passages that take on an inordinate importance in my memory. These days of my life are already far away but they cling to my mind like a leech. I am looking for answers to unanswerable questions about my sister, the events of her life, the trials, the disillusions.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 60 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware -'If it takes heroes to make war, it takes humans to make peace'. This truth inspires the idea of creating professional mediation centers in the Great Lakes Region, with particular emphasis on mediation in schools. This is the perspective to which this work would like to open. This book is the result of a research paper written for the University Diploma of Mediator at IFOMENE. It is an analytical and comparative study of the cultural values of gacaca, ubuntu and ubushingantahe in combination with mediation. A harmonious combination of law and communication, mediation would gain more by being impregnated with the cultural values of the peoples in whose environment it is practiced. The personalist philosophy of ubuntu in the face of apartheid made possible the 'South African miracle' of the Rainbow Nation. The experience of the gacaca in Rwanda after the genocide proved the urgent need to take seriously African traditional jurisprudence in order to achieve a participatory, integrative, accessible and more human justice.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 68 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware -It is around the definitions of the Absurd that Elohim Bilam's existence was built, like a tale of a thousand and one facts that shaped his way of being, of reasoning and of accepting the fatalism of life, thus joining Camus in his definition of the absurd. The author is only the scribe of this fascinating life that the old man apprehended as a series of small lives triggered by absurd acts that many others would not have perceived. It is neither a biography, nor a succession of funny or dramatic incidents, it is only the mysteries of our unpredictable destiny which we only become aware of at the threshold of this passage towards the immaterial, with no possibility of return. This novel is not philosophical, it is only the assessment of these missed acts and of this instinct of survival which allows us to pursue a path which, whatever our wealth, material and intellectual, leads us to a nothingness that religions call Paradise.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 76 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware -Obesity became a worldwide epidemic at the end of the 20th century, with exponential growth rates in the western part of the world, especially in developing countries, such as Brazil. The high cost of the disease to health systems, especially for the treatment of severe obesity (better known as morbid obesity) and its comorbidities represents a considerable part of the total health expenses in Brazil. In this work, we will analyze the main costs and expenses related to bariatric surgeries performed by the Unified Health System (SUS) in residents of the Metropolitan Region of Porto Alegre, RS, Brazil, to understand how expensive this treatment can be and how much prevention and public policy actions to reduce and combat the disease are increasingly necessary.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 68 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware -The field of analysis of this research work was the age of entry or hiring of an individual in an organization. From this variable, using elements from organizational demography and the theory of attraction and similarity, a set of statistical analyses were developed to study the relationship with other demographic variables inherent to organizational functioning. These analyses allow us to conclude that the age of entry is related to the size of the organization, to the seniority of its personnel, to the participation of women, to its gender homogeneity and to its processes of change. The data presented suggest that, insofar as the age of entry is lower and has little variability, over time this will lead to the construction of a bureaucratic and traditional type of organization, whereas if the age of entry is higher and more dispersed, this will contribute to the construction of a smaller, more diverse organization, with greater female participation and more likelihood of change.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 52 pp. Englisch.

Neuware -Why a sociology of women and gender in Burkina Faso In Burkina Faso, a country of men of integrity, women's lives are particularly marked by discriminatory gender relations that are prejudicial to their full development. Their social destiny is negotiated under a tension between tradition and modernity, between empowerment and impoverishment. The birth of a girl as a first child is not always welcomed with joy. In the school environment, sexual violence and harassment threaten the future of many adolescent girls. By bringing together various articles from empirical research, this book aims to make an original contribution to the visibility and understanding of the status of women in Burkina Faso and the related issues of sustainable and equitable development. In a Burkina Faso in the midst of a metamorphosis, under the aegis of the market economy, globalization, and the disintegration of family and social ties, policies aim to change the world of girls and women in Burkina.

Neuware -The organic agriculture has developed a lot in the last decades, and became present in the production of several countries, exhibiting along the last years, high rates of growth. The organic acerola is cultivated in the Tabuleiro Litorâneo Irrigation District of Piauí - DITALPI, where three cooperatives exist with the aim of increasing production and generating employment and income. The institution analysed is the Biofruta Cooperative, made up of 26 producers, of which only 23 were analysed. The issue under analysis is to determine whether the production of organic acerola is economically viable and low risk. Analyzing deterministically, it was concluded that the producers of the 1st scenario did not have losses, but also did not have good profitability, while the producers of the 2nd scenario had losses, while those of the 3rd scenario expressed positive net income and a more comfortable situation in relation to the other scenarios. In the risk assessment, it was found that the producers of the 1st scenario were subject to high risks in production, that the producers of the 2nd scenario were at 100% risk of continuing to produce and the producers of the 3rd scenario proved to be quite profitable.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 72 pp. Englisch.

This includes the application of a questionnaire, a physical evaluation, seminal analysis, hormonal analysis and determination of blood lead levels in each of the participants. The multivariate analysis shows that lead is associated with delayed pregnancy and miscarriage. In conclusion, the high levels of lead found in the traffic police of the city of Arequipa affect fertility due to factors other than the number, mobility and morphology of sperm and the levels of reproductive hormones.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 68 pp. Englisch.

The aim of our study is to evaluate the place of methotrexate in the treatment of moderate to severe psoriasis in our Moroccan context. We obtained good results with a complete remission in 50% of the cases, with few side effects thanks to a regular follow-up of our patients, as well as their supplementation in folic acid. Biotherapies are as effective as methotrexate with fewer side effects, however their cost remains high and they are not reimbursed by social security. In our context, methotrexate remains the first-line treatment for moderate to severe psoriasis, it is an effective, low-cost and well-tolerated treatment.VDM Verlag, Dudweiler Landstraße 99, 66123 Saarbrücken 56 pp. Englisch.
