Überall dort, wo Regierungen die öffentliche Ordnung nicht mehr sicherstellen können, eskaliert nicht nur die Gewalt und leiden M- schen. Die staatsfreien Zonen werden insbesondere von warlords, international agierenden Terroristen und der organisierten Kriminalität für ihre Ziele genutzt. Spätestens mit den Terroranschlägen vom September 2001 sind die globalen Sicherheitsimplikationen, die sich mit schwach oder gar nicht ausgebildeter Staatlichke

Overview: Die Wahrnehmung und Bedeutung des Personalbereichs unterlag in den letzten Jahrzehnten einer starken Veränderungsdynamik. Faktoren wie der demografische Wandel und der zunehmende Fachkräftemangel haben dazu beigetragen, dass das Personal in unserer heutigen Unternehmenswelt nicht mehr nur als reiner Produktionsfaktor angesehen wird, sondern als Humankapital, das einen maßgeblichen Wertschöpfungsbeitrag leistet und somit auch einen wesentlichen Einfluss auf den Erfolg eines Unternehmens ausübt. Die noch relativ junge Disziplin des Personalcontrollings steht damit in der Verantwortung,

Overview: It is now 17 years since the junior author‘s book Parasitic protozoa was first published, and 13 years since it received limited revision. The study of symbiotic protozoa has meanwhile progressed, and much of the content of the earlier book has been superseded if not displaced by recent knowledge. We believe that there is still a place for an introductory textbook, conventionally arranged on a taxonomic frame­ work, on this most fascinating group of organisms. It should supplement (certainly not supplant) more modern treatments from different angles. A mountain looks very different i
