Overview: Neue Perspektiven zur Monotheismus-These Jan Assmanns.Japanischer Nationalismus, Literatur und Religion.Entexotisierung ostasiatischer Textualität.In der neueren Debatte um das Wechselverhältnis von Religion und Politik hat Japan bislang keine Rolle gespielt; zu Unrecht, wie der vorliegende Band zeigt. Japan dürfte das einzige Land mit polytheistisch geprägter Kultur sein, das dem Imperialismus erfolgreich Widerstand entgegensetzte. Mit dem Aufstieg zur Kolonialmacht und der Erhebung des Shintoismus zur Staatsreligion stellte es die Denkmuster europäischer Überlegenheit infrage. Die

Overview: Von soziologischen Erklärungen zu sozionischen ModellenKaum ein soziologischer Diskurs hat sich in den letzten Jahren so sehr um begriffliche Stringenz und kausale Erklärungsfähigkeit bemüht wie der "mechanism-based approach to social theory" . In diesen Diskurs wollen sich die Autoren mit der Frage einmischen, ob und wie sich das Konzept der sozialen Mechanismen angesichts der inhärenten "Reflexivität" von sozialen Zusammenhängen bewähren kann. Angestrebt wird eine Theoriediskussion, die sich an den Stichworten "Erklärung", "Erzeugung", "Reflexivität" festmachen und unterschiedliche

Based on detailed empirical evidence, it develops a theoretical model of Russian provincial society in the late 20th century and the early 21st century. The book explains how under the conditions of catastrophic changes, Russian provincial societies have undergone a structural transformation. It further sheds lig

Overview: The Workshop on Radiative Corrections: Results and Perspectives was held at the University of Sussex in fine weather between July 9 and 14 1989. The Workshop was weIl timed: the day after its concluding session the first beam at LEP was circulated. The Original aims of the Workshop were twofold: first to review the existing theoretical work on electroweak radiative corrections in the light of the initial experiments at SLC and LEP, and to attempt to obtain a consensus on the best means of carrying out the calculations of the various processes. This aim became Working Group A on Renor

Overview: Overview chapters introduce the newcomer to the topic covered.Series covers hot topics of frontier research summarized by reputed scientists in the field.Volumes are useful and of relevance for a long.Medicinal chemistry is both science and art. The science of medicinal chemistry offers mankind one of its best hopes for improving the quality of life. The art of medicinal chemistry continues to challenge its practitioners with the need for both intuition and experience to discover new drugs. Hence sharing the experience of drug research is uniquely beneficial to the field of medicinal

Overview: Discusses main topics of ranking applying partial order theory.Is about how far simple order methods can be useful for the ordinal analysis of data matrices.The reader will learn how to apply unclear This book provides axioms of partial order and some basic material, for example consequences of “criss-crossing” of data profiles, the role of aggregations of the indicators and the powerful method of formal concept analysis. The interested reader will learn how to apply fuzzy methods in partial order analysis and what ‘antagonistic indicator’ means.978-1-4614-2968-5978-1-4419-8477-7Seri

Overview: Re-defines what it means to be an Asian creative city.Situates Asian creative cities as sites for political, cultural and social conflicts in the new ‘Asian century’.Explores how Asian cities have rap.This book responds to the lack of Asian representation in creative cities literature. It aims to use the creative cities paradigm as part of a wider process involving first, a rapid de-industrialisation in Asia that has left a void for new development models, resulting in a popular uptake of cultural economies in Asian cities; and second, the congruence and conflicts of traditional and

Overview: Explains how to avoid human failures within medicine.Describes all relevant risk management systems and tools.Discusses legal and economic aspectsTo err is human, yet nobody wants to accept this fact. This is especially true in medicine! This book focuses on how human failures can be avoided in the medical context. Experts from different disciplines discuss the underlying causes of such failures and explain the techniques required to reduce their frequency. The principles of risk management are clearly described and lessons to be drawn from risk management in other sectors, such as a

Overview: Reveals that the pri-miRNA processing complex undergoes autoregulation.Discusses the Trim-NHL protein family.Discusses HuR, an RNA-binding protein that regulates mRNAs through a number of mechanisms, Given this pervasiveness and importance of miRNA-mediated gene regulation, it should come as little surprise that miRNAs themselves are also highly regulated. However, the recent explosion of knowledge on this topic has been remarkable, providing a primary motivation for publication of this book. As miRNAs are transcribed by RNA polymerase II, the enzyme that also generates mRNAs, it was

Overview: A compact overview.An innovative contribution.A new volume in this relevant book seriesThis book intends to analyze Reinhold Niebuhr‘s understanding of the state in his Christian Realism. Although his overall notion was thoroughly analyzed in different disciplines and respects, this specific focus can be diagnosed as a lacuna. The task of this book is to develop a hypothesis in terms of under what political, social, organizational or intellectual context Niebuhr made use of what definition of the state. When did he support the extension of state power (e. g. in war times, during econ

Overview: Summarizes the current state-of-the-art of renormalization theory.Strong applications to magnetism.Reference for researchers.Graduate text for students for the didactic explanations of the principles .Spin wave theory of magnetism and BCS theory of superconductivity are typical theories of the time before renormalization group (RG) theory. The two theories consider atomistic interactions only and ignore the energy degrees of freedom of the continuous (infinite) solid. Since the pioneering work of Kenneth G. Wilson (Nobel Prize of physics in 1982) we know that the continuous solid is
