Overview: Privatization was the fundamental pillar of transition from plan to market in former socialist countries. But little is known about the fate of companies that were privatized in large scale privatization schemes such as mass privatization or management-employee buyouts. This is the first original study aiming to fill this gap. It assesses wholesale privatization schemes in three leading transition countries - the Czech Republic, Poland and Slovenia - in terms of the evolving concentration of ownership and relations to firm performance.978-0-230-37701-1

Overview: Der Zugwiderstand fahrender Eisenbahnzüge setzt sich aus dem Reibungs­ widerstand des Fahrwerks und dem Luftwiderstand zusammen. Über den Rei­ bungswiderstand des Fahrwerks und auch über den Luftwiderstand bei rei­ ner Längsanströmung liegen Untersuchungsergebnisse vor. Dagegen ist über den Einfluß des Seitenwindes auf den fahrenden Zug nichts bekannt. Die Größe und Richtung der Strömungsgeschwindigkeit relativ zum fahren­ den Zug ergibt sich aus der Windgesch~ndigkeit und der Zuggeschwindig­ keit, so daß sie sich im Allgemeinen in eine Komponente in Längsrichtung des Zuges und in ei

Overview: Focusing on Shelley‘s ‘Italian experience‘, the present study both addresses itself to the living context which nurtured Shelley‘s creativity, and explores a neglected but essential component of his work. The poet‘s four years of self-exile in Italy (1818-1822) were, in fact, the most decisive of his career. As he responded to Italy, his poetry acquired a new subtlety and complexity of vision. Endowed with remarkably keen powers of absorption, the poet imaginatively reshaped the rich cultural heritage of Italy and the vital qualities of its landscape and climate.978-1-349-21649-9Seri
