Overview: Vor dem Hintergrund der Protestaktionen irregulärerer Migranten (Sans-papiers) in Frankreich im Frühjahr 1996 und deren Entwicklung wird untersucht, wie es zu solchen Protestaktionen kommen konnte und warum sie eine große Resonanz hatten. .Dazu werden die französische Einwanderungspolitik und die Einwanderungsgesetzgebung analysiert..Weiterhin wird gezeigt, wie sich die Sans-papiers zu einer sozialen Bewegung etablieren konnten und wie sie ihren Protest inszeniert haben, um als Issue in den Medien präsent zu sein..978-3-8100-3271-3978-3-663-11325-6

Overview: Two of the most exciting topics of current research in stochastic networks are the complementary subjects of stability and rare events - roughly, the former deals with the typical behavior of networks, and the latter with significant atypical behavior. Both are classical topics, of interest since the early days of queueing theory, that have experienced renewed interest mo­ tivated by new applications to emerging technologies. For example, new stability issues arise in the scheduling of multiple job classes in semiconduc­ tor manufacturing, the so-called "re-entrant lines;" and a prom

Overview: This book reports on the findings of, and swnmarizes the conclusions from, the Port Hacking Estuary Project, a model-guided, multidisciplinary study of an estuarine ecosystem. The Project began in 1973, at a time when it was thought that environmental problems could be solved readily by assembling a multidisciplinary team of research scientists and having them co-ordinate their research around the construction of an ecosystem model. But a decade has passed and time has not been easy on this approach. The anticipated predictive dynamic models have not been produced and bitter argument

Overview: Groundbreaking book in new area.Introducing computational humanities to broader audience.Wide ranging choice of examples.The sheer computing power of modern information technology is changing the face of research not just in science, technology and mathematics, but in humanities and cultural studies too. Recent decades have seen a major shift both in attitudes and deployment of computers, which are now vital and highly effective tools in disciplines where they were once viewed as elaborate typewriters. This revealing volume details the vast array of computing applications that resear

Overview: Provides an introduction to the emerging field of topological waves in phononic and acoustic metamaterials.Employs a multidisciplinary approach incorporating insights from nonconventional development .This book offers an essential introduction to the notions of sound wave topology, duality, coherence and wave-mixing, which constitute the emerging new science of sound. It includes general principles and specific examples that illuminate new non-conventional forms of sound (sound topology), unconventional quantum-like behavior of phonons (duality), radical linear and nonlinear phenomen

Overview: Presents a collection of Majorana’s scientific notes, many of which translated into English for the first time.Includes comments of experts in the respective fields.Presented by the Italian Physical S.This book presents in full the work of the Italian theoretical physicist Ettore Majorana and explains its impacts, which are still being felt.  It opens with a contribution by A. Zichichi that considers in depth the scientific genius of Majorana. This introductory chapter is followed, in chronological order, by the eleven scientific papers by this great scientist, in most cases translat

Overview: Addresses questions about the ethical and practical use of Social Media in recruitment.Contributions from experts in the field.Addresses both empirical and practitioner audiences.Presents a balanced a.This timely resource offers fresh research on companies’use of social media platforms—from Twitter and Facebook to LinkedIn and othercareer sites—to find and hire personnel. Its balanced approach explains why andhow social media are commonly used in both employee recruitment and selection, exploringrelevant theoretical constructs and practical considerations about theirappropriateness a

Overview: This is a collective volume on Soviet-American relations with the three rimland states of Iran, Afghanistan and Pakistan. The contributors argue that what happens in these three states would ultimately affect the states in the Gulf and the Middle East. The USA maintains friendly relations only with Pakistan, while her relations with Iran and Afghanistan are antagonistic. The future penetration of the Soviet influence in Iran and Afghanistan is assessed and probable scenarios are discussed by the seventeen contributors, who represent the military, diplomacy and academia. The concludin

Overview: Introduces conventional cutter head atmospheric-tool changing technology.Introduces normal pressure tool change technology based on atmospheric pressure changeable tool design.Introduces stabilizationThis book proposes the tool change methods for the excessive tool wear in the construction rules of shield tunnel construction in China. From the perspective of shield tunneling, atmospheric pressure tool change, pressure opening and tool change, and other special techniques, the tool change technologies are proposed. It highlights a number of tool-changing techniques and research and de

Overview: The importance of real space imaging and spatially-resolved spectroscopy in many of the most significant problems of surface and interface behaviour is almost self evident. To join the expertise of the tradi tional surface scientist with that of the electron microscopist has however been a slow and difficult process. In the past few years remarkable progress has been achieved, including the development of new techniques of scanning transmission and reflection imaging as well as low energy microscopy, all carried out in greatly improved vacuum conditions. Most astonishing of all has b

Overview: Includes supplementary material: .Extracting content from text continues to be an important research problem for information processing and management. Approaches to capture the semantics of text-based document collections may be based on Bayesian models, probability theory, vector space models, statistical models, or even graph theory...As the volume of digitized textual media continues to grow, so does the need for designing robust, scalable indexing and search strategies (software) to meet a variety of user needs. Knowledge extraction or creation from text requires systematic yet

Overview: This book sets out a fresh and original understanding of the social importance of small businesses and of development and growth.Provides a challenging and stimulating debate on the problems facing deThis book considers how small businesses stir up changes in social relationships and what these changes mean for wider society. From this emerges a challenging and provocative discussion on the problems facing both the developing and developed worlds. Development, it argues, is written into social relationships and growth follows attempts to avoid the market’s degenerative effects. What

Overview: Rechtswissenschaftliche Studie.Includes supplementary material: Der Autor beschreibt die in der Praxis besonders bedeutsamen Finanzierungsinstrumente nach islamischem Recht (sukuk) und präsentiert eine Einführung in die Grundlagen der islamischen Rechtsquellen und der Methode der Entscheidungsfindung. Juristisch-dogmatisch ist die Thematik besonders interessant, weil das weltliche-wirtschaftliche Recht religionskonform ausgestaltet werden muss, um den Anforderungen der Glaubensvorschriften zu genügen. Vergleichbare Institutionen des deutschen Rechts werden aufgezeigt und analysiert s

Overview: Schriftsprach-UnterrichtWie Kinder lesen und schreiben lernen ist bis heute Gegenstand von Kontroversen, die sich in unterschiedlichen Methoden der Gestaltung des Anfangsunterrichts widerspiegeln. Fibellehrgänge, Spracherfahrungsansatz und das Konzept „Lesen durch Schreiben“ sind die meist verbreiteten Konzepte, die systematisch dargestellt aber auch kritisch beleuchtet werden. Basis hierfür ist die Einbeziehung von Forschungsbefunden insbesondere aus der empirischen Unterrichtsforschung, durch die Grundstrukturen lernförderlichen Unterrichts für den Bereich des Schriftspracherwerbs
