Overview: Written by experts, Gives a modern approach, Comprehensive in ScopeWho are we with—and without—families? How do we relate as children to our parents, as parents to our children? How are parent-child relationships—and familial relationships in general—made and (not) maintained? Informed by narrative, performance studies, poststructuralism, critical theory, and queer theory, contributors to this collection use autoethnography—a method that uses the personal to examine the cultural—to interrogate these questions. The essays write about/around issues of interpersonal distance and closene

Overview: Kennzeichen heterogener Produktionssysteme ist die Koexistenz mehrerer organisatorisch und technisch klar voneinander abgrenzbarer Subsysteme. Dadurch ergeben sich Schwierigkeiten bezüglich der Harmonisierung der Informationsströme über die nach unterschiedlichen Verfahren gesteuerten Produktionssegmente. Dies führt zu Diskontinuitäten des Materialflusses; daraus resultieren wiederum überhöhte Bestände und Terminverzögerungen, die einen unplanmäßigen Kostenanfall bewirken...Als möglichen Lösungsansatz untersucht Thomas Rücker das Production Authorization Card (PAC)-System, ein genera

Overview: Währungsrisiken managenDas Management des Währungsrisikos stellt unter den Bedingungen der deutschen Volkswirt­ schaft, unter denen nicht wenige Unternehmen zwischen 50% und 80% ihres Umsatzes in Drittwährungen tätigen, ein besonders drängendes Problem dar, zumal die Volatilität der Wechselkurse eher zu-als abzunehmen scheint. Auch die Einführung des Euro wird an dieser Problematik nichts ändern, da viele wichtige Währungen weiterhin frei schwanken werden. Gleichzeitig und zum Teil als Reaktion auf das daraus resultierende Absicherungsbedürfnis der Unternehmen steigt das Marktvolumen

Overview: The academic or scientific occupation with international relations is not always an encouraging task. At times one gets an image of the enormous psychic and physical forces which operate in the international realm, and it then seems that the role of the publicist is almost a negligible one. If one, in addition, arrives at the conclusion that human social action is not really a volitional process, then there is indeed ample room for pessimism and despair. Nevertheless, in the complexity of our consciousness, the different elements of which life is made of blend into a unity of which t
