Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Globalization is one of the salient trends in the post-Cold War era but exhibits different meanings and forms depending on individual nations and respective regions. It is one of the key themes in international relations in our era to demonstrate both theoretically and empirically how globalism, regionalism and nationalism are related to each other. This book addresses these issues by pulling together varied regional perspectives, particularly from Asia. It deals with the general issue of globalization, both the global and the regional dimensions; regionalism in the Asia-Pacific region; and comparisons between China and Japan, and finally it examines how Japan in particular has been coping with globalization and internalization.

Neuware - Da China ein Fünftel der Weltbevölkerung stellt, wird es nicht nur einen großen Einfluß auf den Weltmarkt ausüben, sondern auch wesentlich auf die Volkswirtschaften Europas und Amerikas einwirken.

Szenario Nr. 1 basiert auf einer dezentralisierten stadtbezogenen Wirtschaft, Nr. 2 zeigt die Vetternwirtschaft als Ausgangspunkt der neuen Wirtschaft und Nr. 3 zeichnet China, wie es im Sumpf der Korruption versinkt. Die Autoren analysieren ganz genau, welche Auswirkungen jede einzelne dieser Möglichkeiten auf die Weltwirtschaft hätte. Es bleibt nur die Frage unbeantwortet, für welchen Weg sich China entscheidet.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The book investigates from a comparative perspective various aspects of the little studied syntax of the dialects of southern Italy. In addition to providing a descriptive account of a wide range of syntactic phenomena traditionally overlooked in the literature, the discussion shows how the model of language embodied in Chomsky's (1995) Minimalist Program can be profitably extended to the study of the syntax of southern Italian dialects. Focusing on such topics as Case-marking and finite, infinitival and participial complementation, these dialects are demonstrated to present the linguist with a fertile test-bed in which to explore new ideas about language structure and micro-variation in the syntax of a relatively homogeneous group of dialects. The analysis elucidates significant aspects of the structure of these dialects and shows how a familiarity with the facts of southern Italian dialect syntax can broaden the empirical domain of the theory and shed light on important theoretical issues.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Open Learning Units offer a very flexible approach to the teaching of psychology. They are designed to be more than sufficient for the purposes of A/S and A-Level psychology, and the applied emphasis will appeal to various vocational courses such as those offered by BTEC and also to mature students on Access courses. Their primary use will be in the classroom with a tutor's guidance, but the interactive style makes them equally appropriate for the purposes of self-study. More advanced students might want to use the Units to learn at their own pace, and in all cases, the careful structure of the writing and the extensive use of Examples, Open Questions and Self-Assessment Questions make them ideal revision guides.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Der technologische, politische und wirtschaftliche Wandel hat eine komplexe Arbeitswelt geschaffen, wodurch eine Flut neuer Mangementtrends ins Leben gerufen wurde. Jeder dieser Trends, wie z.B. Qualitätsmanagement, Restrukturierung und Management by Empowerment - um nur einige zu nennen -, trägt nur einen Teil zur Lösung des Problems bei.

Die 6 Grundsätze, die die Basis für diese 'Neue Logik' bilden, werden in 'From the Ground Up' ausführlich erläutert. Die 'Neue Logik' ist keine flüchtige Erscheinung, sondern eine langfristig ausgelegte Strategie, die zum entscheidenden Wettbewerbsvorteil und damit zu dauerhaftem Erfolg führt.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - From Dagwood to Dilbert, the past fifty years haven't seen much evolution in our attitudes toward work. Too many of us still believe that our work selves and our real selves, our professional and personal lives, are separate entities. This book is about how that concept is slowly, but surely, changing. It is about why it is changing. And, most important, it is about why it must change. C. Michael Thompson takes a compelling look at the connection between our inner lives and our work lives and shows how the development of the individual spirit can trigger not just personal fulfillment but much-needed organizational change.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Professional psychology has its historical, intellectual, organisational and financial roots in the Western nations.

The book discusses, explains and illustrates some of the potential of psychology beyond the strait-jacket that has been imposed upon it by its intellectual and empirical roots. It provides a positive model for psychological theory, research and practice, and offers a racially and culturally aware perspective.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - This book shows the reader how much archaeologists can learn from recent developments in cultural history. Cultural historians deal with many of the same issues as postprocessual archaeologists, but have developed much more sophisticated methods for thinking about change through time and the textuality of all forms of evidence. The author uses the particular case of Iron Age Greece (c. 1100-300 BC), to argue that text-aided archaeology, far from being merely a testing ground for prehistorians' models, is in fact in the best position to develop sophisticated models of the interpretation of material culture.
