Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -Life on earth is immemorial. No one knows when it has started and when it will finish. We have many attempts to unveil the origins of life, but they fail to give an exact date. For instance, ¿Darwin himself was remarkably circumspect, titling his treatise On the Origins of Species, avoiding speculating on life¿s origins. In Darwin¿s world, life had already been created¿. We have different hypotheses on the origins of life, but all of them seem to agree on the fact that humanity has a past, present, and future. This research aims to explore Hollywood's visualization of the Future of Humanity. Tom Lombardo, for instance, views that the 'warning scenario' is a common theme within futurist thinking, both in science fiction and non-fictional books on the future. He thinks that the logic of such warning scenarios is if we keep doing what we are doing, things will get worse. Wendell Bell, on his part, refers to such predictions as 'presumptively true'. In other words, the logic of a warning scenario is 'If we keep doing X, then Y will follow'. This is a conditional predictive statement.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 76 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -Ground-breaking transitions have sparked diversification and the naissance of new platforms. The case of the media industry is not any different with the latest fashion being social media. Despite the short life cycle of social media, the cadence in which it has attained high esteem is no short of a continuous and worthy tribute. Having amassed an abundant base of faithful and loyal followers or consumers, as regarded by media companies, it has broadened possibilities for media companies within the realms of marketing, branding or building customer relationships. Nevertheless, companies face challenges within the areas of consumer engagement and providing a strong value proposition to consumers. This script analyzes this dilemma and illustrates how it is advantageous to incorporate consumers in the production of content so as to understand and satisfy their needs better. It is also found that the incorporation of consumers in the offer development process can lead to innovation and possibly, exercise blue ocean strategies.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 136 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -One of the greatest challenges of the new media in recent years and one that will intensify further as world turns to a global village is the potential impacts of New Information and Communication Technologies (NICTs) on form and content of media output,the processes through which media messages are produced and consumed.Such challenges are however, not new,and of course the history of the mass media is a history of technological development with profound social consequences and implications at every stage. And there are strong grounds that contemporary media are undergoing particularly dramatic technologically driven changes, as characterized by media interactivity, accessibility and diversity of information overload with new freedoms for the audience, users, or consumers.It is resolved that this book will be able to:centre and justify the discourse on new media and terrorism and its potential for destruction in a more global context of post-modernism, and also enhance the knowledge of media professionals, media scholars and peace practitioners who will find this research instructive as it is a timely response to the awareness and effects of media globalization.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 148 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -Over the past few years, a drastic change has occurred in the nature of financial services for the rural poor in India. Andhra Pradesh is one of the leading Indian state in terms of SHG and MFI growth, with the largest number MFIs based in the state. This rapid growth has caused intense competition amongst MFIs competing for both clients and staffs. Clients with multiple-borrowings from various sources are in some cases over-indebted. Many microfinance commercial organisations have entered the Rural Credit Market in search of profit and are competing to lend to the poor. In the process of giving loan to the poor the MFIs started chasing targets and numbers. This book tries to identify the gaps, issues and challenges faced by the rural households to manage their indebtedness situation. Further this book aims at understanding the critical issues of multiple borrowing and the collection practices followed by the MFIs in the state of Andhra Pradesh. With growing global interests from the scholars of Microfinance, Development Studies, Policy Planners and Civil Society Organisation, this book would be an important and timely reading for all of them.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 112 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -Is an abundance of natural resources a ¿blessing¿ or a ¿curse¿ Should natural resources be held accountable for the poor development outcome of some states There have been different contesting frameworks and evidences pointing to either one of the questions above. This book examines these different concepts, and contributes to the resource curse debate by analysing how some resource rich countries attained development successfully with the aid of their natural resources while some did not. A case study approach is employed with main focus on Nigeria because of its strategic position as the largest exporter of crude oil in Africa. Nigeria is critically analysed using Kaufmann et al¿s governance indicators. The analysis would help shed light on the governance structures needed to boost development and economic growth in both resource rich and resource poor developing states. This book will be especially useful to professionals in oil and gas sectors, international development fields, students of international relations, development studies and other scholars.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 84 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -The condition of slums is the worst in Bangladesh. According to the survey of the Center for Urban Studies in 2005, there are 3007 slums in Dhaka city with very high population. Their standard of living is the lowest with minimum access to the fundamental rights of the state. Crimes and violence are common phenomena more or less in all slums. Crime and violence are no longer considered just a ¿social¿ or ¿law and order¿ problem, but also as an obstacle to development which erodes the poor's human, physical, and social capital (UN-Habitat Safer Cities, 2002). My study reveals that various types of crimes such as internal violence, theft, robbery, mugging, trafficking, drug addicting, drug dwelling, sexual harassment etc. are committed both by insiders and outsiders at Mohammadpur Geneva Camp. There appears to be a deep lack of trust among the Camp dwellers to the justice system and the police. So sometimes they take law in their hand. Thus, some become top criminals. These crimes identify the slum dwellers as the worst people. These also create a 'climate of fear' both in the slum and neighboring society that is an obstacle to people's social and psychological development.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 100 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -Value Engineering (VE) is a practice whose goal is, always, to achieve value for money. VE found its first applications in U.S. manufacturing at the end of World War II. Its introduction to construction in the early 1960s was fueled by the U.S. military and expanded throughout the U.S. government. Subsequently, its use has spread globally. The book goes beyond merely describing the theory of VE in order to explain how the methodology can be productively used in practice . it is hoped that the practice advice contained in its chapter will assist engineers , who are involved with establishing VE activities within their organization , it also aimed at assisting all those who may become involved with VE to participate more productivity by giving them greater appreciation of the basics of VE , and how it relates to other construction activities. Selecting the project at the appropriate stage of development (the timing of the study) is very important to the success of the VE study. Value can be added by performing a VE study at any time during project development.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 88 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -The aim of this book is twofold:on the one hand it seeks to examine the relation between different policies of backward-looking truth and justice and the quality of democracy established in the aftermath of violence through the analysis of the Moroccan transitional experience. On the other hand, while much of transitional justice literature tends to be state-centric often focusing on intra-state issues of truth-seeking, retribution and reconciliation after mass atrocity, this book tries to explore the role of civil society in the reconciliation processes.In doing so, it aims to push the discussion beyond a normative perspective and to examine the full spectrum of roles played by civil society actors including supporting dialogue and reconciliation as well as breeding discord and intolerance. Based on a comparison between Morocco, Spain and Cyprus, the book tries to address questions such as: To what extent can the mode of accountability for past human rights violations determine the outcome of the transition from authoritarianism to democracy What is the relationship between state and civil society actors engaged in the transitional process Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 72 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -Wetlands represent a complex multifaceted domain due to complexity of resource users, diversity of uses and stakeholders. They continue to degrade rapidly across Nepal as its management has remained fragmented and centralized. Numerous agencies claim the ownership but no one manages it. There are numerous laws with overlapping jurisdictions where most of them do not acknowledge each other and are formulated in isolation. Local fragmented management clearly lacks a common objective to co-manage. Formation of coordinating bodies at central level and a multi-stakeholder forum at the district level are positive initiatives. But a drawback is that they function to be more of an advisory body and less of a power sharing mechanism. The term 'multi' should refer to the diversity of stakeholders in a resource rather than their diverse stakes. The current status of institutional arrangements expanding across ministries to local practices and laws to plans needs to streamline as a separate wetlands law could only be more ambiguous. The institutionalization process of the multi-stakeholder bodies is crucial but paradoxically uncertain under current political pandemonium.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 120 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -This work is based on a change in the Danish criminal law whose legal doctrinal implications are quite banal: Prior to the change, only 15-year-olds, were punished - now is also on the 14th.It is a quite deliberate distillation; fiddling dogma away to ascertain the problems surrounding the weighting of the sense of justice in criminal law, without taking the traditional, legal basis - it is quite clear from the responses from the legal institutions that balk at a reduction the age of criminal responsibility. It proves very clearly that the sense of justice in a political context relates to the collective experience of violation: Condemnation of the crime and the offender, the interests of the victim, the victim's family and the aggrieved communities.Crime is of course one of the few phenomena in a pluralistic society that suffers universal antipathy. Flemming Balvig aptly defines the legal feeling as an insatiable 'danaid sieve'. It is therefore imperceptible when a politician or a mass media feeds off of people's emotions in an effort to secure as many votes or viewers.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 56 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -The bureaucracy of Bangladesh follows the Weberian model of bureaucracy which is characterized by strict rules and regulation in carrying out the task and involving impersonal decisions in the affairs of the Republic, however, by going through the newspapers highlighted in the newspaper it is seen that the government has been very much reluctant in conforming with rules and regulations especially in issues involving recruitment, promotion & transfer. In the last three years the government has influenced the administrative issues such as promotions and transfers to put the ¿like-minded¿ personnel of the government in favorable positions, so that the interest of the government can be met. By going through the newspapers over the last three years, it can be deducted that the government has failed to meet the expectation of the people and have not been able to manage the civil service in a well-coordinated way, which have resulted in slow economic growth.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 100 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -In this study, the integration policy of Enschede is investigated. More specifically, the work-oriented integration program. Herman van Gunsteren (1992) has developed five concepts of citizenship. These are the republican citizenship, citizenship for all, citizenship as a bearer of rights and preferences, citizenship as a member of a community and the neo-republican citizenship. A definition of citizenship: 'Active citizenship refers to the social behavior and independence of citizens, and how service providers and public policy invite citizens to social behavior and self-reliance, and support them in it' (Steyaert, Bodd & Lindens, 2005, p. 23). Citizens are expected to solve the problems as responsible, decent, caring and deliberative citizens. Citizens are considered to build bridges between citizens and between citizens and government. Self-reliance and economic independence are key elements of active citizenship. The idea is that the welfare state made people passive and lazy. This was the reason that people were first called to account for their independency and then also their responsibility.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 92 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -A Conditional Cash Transfer Program (CCT) is a type of social safety net program that originated in Latin America during the early 1990¿s. It is unique in that it targets the two major drivers of structural poverty: education and health. CCTs involve a cash transfer to beneficiaries only if they routinely send their children to school and health clinics. The rationale behind this concept is that investing in human capital will not only relieve the short-term symptoms of poverty, but also stop the cycle of inter-generational poverty. The programs¿ successes in Latin America can be broken down into a list of criteria. These criteria are necessary for any CCT and anti-poverty program to be successful. The criteria are then applied to the anti-poverty programs in India to see if a large-scale implementation of CCTs would work in India. The bottom line surrounding the analysis of Indiäs anti-poverty programs using the CCT criteria is that a complicated bureaucracy, corruption, and lack of transparency drives the majority of the inefficiencies seen in India. If corrected for, CCTs can target the major contributors to poverty in India: poor health, lack of education, and social biases.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 56 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) has experienced a dramatic rise in Portugal in the last three decades, which was essential for the convergence process of the country with the European Union. Many authors have already studied the determinants of FDI, but few have analyzed them at sectoral level. Indeed, the motivations that lead the choices of foreign investors vary according to the sector invested. Therefore, the present master's thesis is a pioneer study whose main objective is to identify the determinants of FDI in Portugal, in nine economic activities. In order to assess that, two models were constructed using the OLS estimator with time series data from 1980 to 2009 for the Portuguese economy. Using the results obtained, it is possible to elaborate a set of more cost-effective policies aimed to improve the attractiveness of the country for foreign multinational enterprises and, consequently, take advantage of the externalities created by bigger flows of FDI.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 92 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -The limitations of conventional wastewater treatment technologies demand advanced research methods to tackle complex wastewater treatment. Chemical treatment of wastewaters containing biocidal or nonbiodegradable components is part of a long-term strategy to improve the quality of drinking water resources by eliminating toxic materials of anthropogenic origin before releasing the used water into natural cycles. An improvement in oxidative degradation procedures for organic compounds in aquatic media has been achieved recently in applying catalytic and photochemical methods. Such methods include processes which generated the hydroxyl radical in this category, namely ozone at high pH values, hydrogen peroxide with UV radiation and ozone or hydrogen peroxide with other hydroxyl radical initiators such as metals and metal oxides. Use of UV radiation for wastewater treatment was the initial and remains the most promising large long term market for the technology.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 116 pp. Englisch.
