Overview: Zu den Kernproblemen parlamentarischer Demokratien zählt das Spannungsverhältnis von Interessenrepräsentation und -integration. In der Bundesrepublik Deutschland ist das Parlament mit der Herstellung der deutschen Einheit vor zusätzliche Integrationsaufgaben gestellt worden. Am Beispiel des Berliner Abgeordnetenhauses untersucht Helmar Schöne die Auswirkungen der politischen und kulturellen Differenzen zwischen alten und neuen Bundesländern auf die parlamentarische Willensbildung. Auf der Grundlage zahlreicher Experteninterviews analysiert er den Prozess der kulturellen und der insti

The authors demonstrate that post-Soviet diaspora

Overview: Werner Weidenfeld Since the signing of the Treaties of Rome in 1957, Western European history has been an ongoing process integrating and enlarging European institutions. Over the course of that time, the institutions now known as the European Union have become a major pil­ lar for the security and stability for Europe as a whole. These essential functions can only be perpetuated if the Union can project its capacities and capabilities beyond its current borders. Today‘s European agenda is defined by integration. Offering prospects for membership in the EU has been a successful instr

Overview: This book was originally published in Japanese in honour of Professor S. Chikazumi on the occasion of his retirement from the University of Tokyo in March 1982. Physicists who had been supervised by him or had closely col­ laborated with him wrote articles on recent developments in magnetism and its engineering applications. In the preface of his excellent textbook Physics of Magnetism (Wiley, 1964), Professor Chikazumi says that recent research in magnetism deals with fundamental physical problems and, at the same time, with more secondary magnetic phenomena, as well as with enginee

Overview: Eight carefully written articles on the interactions between the ideas and concepts of particle physics and those of astrophysics make up this book. Two long introductory lectures give a survey of modern concepts in particle physics and in astrophysics and cosmology, stressing features of common interest. The other six contributions deal with the physics of supernova explosions, with black holes, with neutrino oscillations, with the importance of phase transitions for the large-scale structure of the Universe, and with the use of the ideas of quantum gravity for computer simulations.

Overview: This book, the third volume in the series, continues to explore the application of chemistry to our understanding of the functioning of the human in health and disease. It is the objective of the authors to continue to present, in this and subsequent volumes, the biochemical aspects of clinical chemistry, and to indicate how this knowledge applies to the diagnosis of disease and the treatment of the patient. For this purpose, the literature is reviewed carefully and the findings of the different study groups are integrated, to present an overall view of the present status of the vari

Overview: Includes both chapters which consider mistakes to be objective facts as well as chapters which consider mistakes to be social constructions.Essential reading for students of International Relations, a.This edited volume analyzes mistakes in different areas of international relations including the realms of security, foreign policy, finance, health, development, environmental policy and migration. By starting out from a broad concept of mistakes as “something [considered to have] gone wrong” the edited volume enables comparisons of various kinds of mistakes from a range of analytical

Overview: Explains how physical-layer security can secure wireless communications by exploiting the physical-layer characteristics of wireless channels.Presents practical challenges and recent advances in coopeThis book presents physical-layer security as a promising paradigm for achieving the information-theoretic secrecy required for wireless networks. It explains how wireless networks are extremely vulnerable to eavesdropping attacks and discusses a range of security techniques including information-theoretic security, artificial noise aided security, security-oriented beamforming, and dive

Overview: This volume contains the papers presented at CP 2009: The 15th International Conference on Principles and Practice of Constraint Programming. It was held from September 20–24, 2009 at the Rectory of the New University of Lisbon, Portugal. Everyone involved with the conference thanks our sponsors for their support. There were 128 submissions to the research track, of which 53 were accepted for a rate of 41.4%. Each submission was reviewed by three reviewers, with a small number of additional reviews obtained in exceptional cases. Each review waseitherbyaProgrammeCommitteemember,orbyac

Overview: Considers the causes and conditions that explain the development of the modern Portuguese political system.Analyses the basic characteristics of Portugal‘s current democracy.Offers an invaluable conteThis book examines how patterns of political representation, party system, and political culture have changed in Southern Europe following the “Great Recession” of 2008. It draws on the experience of Portugal to argue that austerity measures have significantly deepened the legitimacy crisis of democratic institutions, but the resilience of party system is remarkable in comparison. The ca

Overview: The goal of this book is to present basic optimization theory and modern computational algorithms in a concise manner. The book is suitable for un­ dergraduate and graduate students in all branches of engineering, operations research, and management information systems. The book should also be use­ ful for practitioners who are interested in learning optimization and using these techniques on their own. Most available books in the field tend to be either too theoretical or present computational algorithms in a cookbook style. An approach that falls some­ where in between these two ex

Overview: Innerhalb des Tierreichs werden die Protozoen als besonderes Unterreich den vielzelligen Tieren (Metazoen) an die Seite gestellt. Ungeachtet dieser hohen systematischen Bewertung gehören sie jedoch nicht zu den Lebewesen, welche allgemein bekannt sind. Infolge ihrer Einzelligkeit stellen sie meistens kleine Organismen dar, die nur mit Hilfe des Mikroskops sichtbar gemacht werden können. Wenige Formen, wie die ausgestorbenen Nummuliten, erreichten eine Größe von mehreren Zentimetern. Trotz ihrer Kleinheit spielen die Protozoen im Haushalt der Natur eine be­ deutende Rolle. Die zur Pho
