Overview: Develops a new theoretical framework to study street-level agency within institutional structures.Presents ideal-type institutional logics for the study of public, religious and civil society organizaIntroducing the institutional logics perspective to street-level analysis, this book examines how street-level workers deal with the institutional logics that guide their organization – whether they follow or challenge them. While doing so, the book develops a theoretical framework to study street-level workers’ institutional agency within organizations from different institutional backg

Overview: Soziologische Grundlagen gesellschaftlicher RationalitätDer Begriff der "Rationalität" steht im Zentrum sozialwissenschaftlicher Analysen. Er gilt als der Schlüsselbegriff der Moderne. Vor dem Hintergrund der Entwicklung einer Pluralität divergierender und widersprüchlicher Rationalitätstypologien, Rationalitätssemantiken und Rationalitätstheorien unternimmt die Arbeit eine aktualisierende Rekonstruktion der sachlichen und methodischen Gehalte und Probleme von Rationalitätskonzepten. In dem Band werden die modellistischen Grundannahmen und die empirische Reichweite der einflußreichst

Overview: Nine comprehensive articles that focus upon a transcultural iconography in art history.Methodologically innovative approaches to redefine and develop the practice of identification and classification The volume investigates the visualization of both ritual and decorative aspects of auspiciousness and protection in the form of celestial characters in art and architecture.

Overview: By Prof.Dr.A.T.Van Oosterom Head of the Department of Oncology at the Catholic University of Leuven, Belgium The word cancer defines over 180 different diseases. Some occurring quite often and are well known, others are very rare and sometimes so unknown that the diagnosis is not even suspected at operation. In this book, Dr.Debois, a retired radiation oncologist, describes a selected group of cancer types, some of which are difficult to find in the standard textbooks, in a logical format starting with their bibliography, history, incidence, anatomy, clinical presentation, diagnosis

Overview: Proof complexity is a research area that studies the concept of complexity from the point of view of logic.Book offers a reader-friendly exposition of game-theoretic methods used in proof complexity.A.This book considers logical proof systems from the point of view of their space complexity. After an introduction to propositional proof complexity the author structures the book into three main parts. Part I contains two chapters on resolution, one containing results already known in the literature before this work and one focused on space in resolution, and the author then moves on to

Overview: Sozialwissenschaftliche Studie.Includes supplementary material: Alexander Yendell geht der Frage nach, ob alle Adressaten der beruflichen Weiterbildung gleichermaßen daran teilhaben können. Er legt eine multiparadigmatische Analyse im Lichte bildungssoziologischer und bildungsökonomischer Studien vor. Seine Betrachtung von Weiterbildungsdaten zwischen 1989 und 2008 zeigt robuste Unterschiede bei der Weiterbildungsteilnahme zwischen sozialen Gruppen, Arbeitsmarktsegmenten, Branchen und innerbetrieblichen Hierarchien auf. Neben wichtigen Indikatoren zur Teilnahme an beruflicher Weiterb
