Overview: Simplicity theory is an extension of stability theory to awider class of structures, containing, among others, the random graph,pseudo-finite fields, and fields with a generic automorphism.Following Kim‘s proof of `forking symmetry‘ which implies a goodbehaviour of model-theoretic independence, this area of model theoryhas been a field of intense study. It has necessitated the developmentof some important new tools, most notably the model-theoretictreatment of hyperimaginaries (classes modulo type-definableequivalence relations). It thus provides a general notion ofindependence (and

Overview: In diesem Buch werden die völkerrechtlichen Debatten um die Dekolonialisierung innerhalb der Vereinten Nationen und in der Völkerrechtswissenschaft in den fünfziger und sechziger Jahren des 20. Jahrhunderts anhand des Beispiels Kongo (heutige Demokratische Republik Kongo) aufgearbeitet. Hierbei wird die Geschichte des ressourcenreichen Landes mit der Völkerrechtsgeschichte der Dekolonialisierung verbunden. In den Vordergrund rückt dabei die sog. Dependenztheorie. Diese aus den sechziger und siebziger Jahren stammende Theorie, wonach aus dem Kolonialismus hervorgegangene hierarchische

Overview: Kaum ein Thema beschäftigt Theorie und Praxis so wie die Unternehmenszusam­ menschlüsse; dennoch bleibt das Bild über Voraussetzungen, Möglichkeiten und Grenzen der Akquisitionen und Fusionen unklar. Die Notwendigkeit einer weltweiten Präsenz, der Zugang zu neuen Technologien und die Anforderungen der Finanz­ märkte lassen häufig den obersten Führungskräften keine andere Wahl, als die von Ihnen geleiteten Unternehmungen zu "Portfolios von Produkten mit Weltmarktrang­ 1 plätzen 1 bis höchstens 3" zu gestalten und "diese Portfolios zu jedem Zeitpunkt 2 besser zu mischen, als es die int

Overview: Soziale Arbeit: Rolle, Funktion und Selbstverständnis.Menschenrechtsprofession zwischen Sozialpolitik und Lebenslagen?.Fragestellungen und Positionierungen im Diskurs um Soziale Arbeit und Gesellschaf.Seit Anfang 2020 befindet sich die gesamte Welt in einer Krise, der sogenannten Covid-19 Pandemie. Es ist unzweifelhaft, dass Krisen, Konflikte, auch Katastrophen zur politischen Welt gehören. Wir müssen davon ausgehen, dass politisches Handeln immer Auswirkungen auf das Leben der Gesellschaftsmitglieder und damit auch auf die Soziale Arbeit in der Gesellschaft hat. Inwiefern die Sozial

In the following chapters, specific aerothermodyna

Overview: The first volume is clearly a textbook, the second one contains more advanced material as well..Both volumes are sufficiently self-contained though related, of course..Includes supplementary material:Most of the interesting and difficult problems in statistical mechanics arise when the constituent particles of the system interact with each other with pair or multi particle energies. The types of behaviour which occur in systems because of these interactions are referred to as cooperative phenomena giving rise in many cases to phase transitions.

Overview: Presents a critique of the dominant liberal theory of property.Challenges the dominant paradigm of justifications for property.Interrogates the role played by property in contemporary global challenge.This book explores the nature of liberal property in the twenty-first century. It contains three parts. The first examines how we have arrived at the liberal concept of property—what many scholars call the ‘bundle of rights‘ metaphor of property. This part argues that the liberal conception embodied in the bundle of rights metaphor is really a way of masking or hiding what property real

Overview: Presents an up-to-date review of renewable energy deployment in the.Mediterranean island of Cyprus.Offers a clear example of a social cost-benefit assessment in.the energy sector.Describes data and as.This book presents an economic cost-benefit assessment of the penetration of renewable power generation in Cyprus up to 2030. Unlike a purely financial appraisal, we employ a social cost-benefit analysis that is mainly relevant for policy makers, taking into account – apart from direct financial costs – external costs and benefits from the diffusion of renewable electricity. The book pr

Overview: Taking a wide-ranging intertextual approach, Richard Hillman sets Early Modern English play-texts against political and cultural discourses concerning France, as these informed contemporary English consciousness. The English works explored go beyond those directly representing French affairs; the French examples include dramatic treatments of Joan of Arc and of the assassination of the Guises by Henri III. In addition to its fresh readings of some familiar plays, the book proposes, as unique to the English-French dynamic, a theoretical model relating history, discourse and subjectivi
