Overview: This book is designed to serve two purposes. First it provides an introduction to the ideas and works of Michel Foucault. It should be particularly appropriate for education students for whom, in general, Foucault is a shadowy presence. Second, it provides a Foucault based critique of a central plank of Western liberal education, the notion of the autonomous individual or personal autonomy. There are several introductions to Foucault but they tend to be written from a particular theoretical position, or with a particular interest in Foucault‘s ideas and works. For example Smart (1986

Overview: Zum Schutz der Umwelt wird in Deutschland vornehmlich eine Politik der Verbote und der Gebote betrieben. ?konomen beklagen die Ineffizienz dieser Instrumente, k?nnen sich mit ihrer Forderung nach einer marktkonformen Umweltpolitik aber nicht durchsetzen, weil einerseits die immensen Kosten der Einschr?nkung wirt- schaftlicher Entscheidungsfreiheit nicht belegbar und andererseits die vermeintli- chen Kosten etwa einer Umweltsteuer für jedermann greifbar zu sein scheinen. Dabei offenbart die sehr emotional geführte Diskussion um die Einführung einer ?kologischen Steuerreform die tiefe

Overview: Uncovers the misrepresentation and silence taking place throughout US history textbooks.Focuses on two historically overlooked groups of people: Native Americans and Mexican Americans.Contains both et.This open access book investigates how representation of Native Americans and Mexican-origin im/migrants takes place in high school history textbooks. Manually analyzing text and images in United States textbooks from the 1950s to 2022, the book documents stories of White victory and domination over Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) groups that disproportionately fill educa

Overview: This book contains the papers presented at a meeting sponsored by the Colloid and Interface Science Group of the Faraday Division, Royal Society of Chemistry, which was held at Wills Hall, University of Bristol from the 14th - 16th April 1997. The pur pose of the meeting, which was entitled Colloidal Dispersions, was to discuss the subject of concentrated colloidal systems including, dispersions, emulsions and powders, in order to emphasize recent advances in experimental and theoretical understanding of these systems and how these advances could be applied to practical utitisation i

More than 90% of all plant species have the potential to form such associations, which are often essential for optimal plant growth and productivity. .Leading experts cover aspects of .- structure and function;.- molecular biology;.- biotechnological applications;.- ecophysiology;.- systematics.978-3-662-08897-5

Overview: A procedure is thoroughly explained for constructing realistic stochastic differential equation models.Many stochastic differential equation models are developed for randomly varying systems in biolog.Dynamical systems with random influences occur throughout the physical, biological, and social sciences. By carefully studying a randomly varying system over a small time interval, a discrete stochastic process model can be constructed. Next, letting the time interval shrink to zero, an Ito stochastic differential equation model for the dynamical system is obtained. ..This modeling proc

Overview: This booklet was begun as an appendix to Introductory Econometrics. As it progressed, requirements of consistency and completeness of coverage seemed to make it inordinately long to serve merely as an appendix, and thus it appears as a work in its own right. Its purpose is not to give rigorous instruction in mathematics. Rather it aims at filling the gaps in the typical student‘s mathematical training, to the extent relevant for the study of econometrics. Thus, it contains a collection of mathematical results employed at various stages of Introductory Econometrics. More generally, ho

Overview: Es geht auch anders:.Positive Unternehmensgestaltung statt DownsizingFür Lennart und Gitti Ein weiterer Baustein, um eine Welt zu schaffen in der wir und andere gerne leben wollen. Vorwort 7 Vorwort Liebe Leser, wie oft haben Sie schon S?tze gelesen, die etwa lauten: ?Die zunehmende Globalisierung und ansteigende Dynamik des Marktes machen es immer schwieriger für die Untern- men, im weltweiten Wettbewerb zu bestehen.“ Solche Aussagen sind inzwischen l?ngst zu Platituden geworden, denn die Globalis- rungstendenz gibt es schon seit vielen Jahren. Die Unternehmen haben h?ufig darauf mi

Overview: Dieses Buch untersucht die neueren Ans?tze der Innovationserkl?rung unter dem Aspekt ihrer empirischen Relevanz. Vor diesem Hintergrund und unter besonderer Berücksichtigung des Me?- und Datenproblems wird eine empirische Erkl?rung der industriellen Innovation in der Bundesrepublik Deutschland gegeben. Der erste Teil ist somit theoretisch und methodisch orientiert. Der zweite Teil liefert die Ergebnisse der empirischen Analyse. Erstmals wurden die Gesch?ftsberichte und Patente von 270 westdeutschen Kapitalgesellschaften für die Zwecke der Innovationsmessung und -erkl?rung ausgewertet

Overview: Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences was first conceived, published, and dis- seminated by the Center for Information and Numerical Data Analysis and Synthesis (CINDAS) * at Purdue University in 1957, starting its coverage of theses with the academic year 1955. Beginning with Volume 13, the printing and dissemination phases of the ac- tivity were transferred to University Microfilms/Xerox of Ann Arbor, Michigan, with the thought that such an arrangement would be more beneficial to the academic and general scientific and technical community. After five years of this joint u

Overview: There is an urgent need for guidelines for monitoring of genetically modified higher plants, GMHP. Biotech crops are now cultivated in large scale in North America and elsewhere. In Europe, new genetically modified (GM) products will probably be placed on the market soon and made available of any negative ef- for cultivation in the field. Monitoring and surveillance programs for detection fects to the environment must be designed and ready when these crops are released. This also corre- sponds to the current intentions made by the European Commission to include monitoring in current
