Overview: Analyse der Kriminalit?t von Frauen und M?nnern mit dem AnomiekonzeptDie gegenüber m?nnlicher Kriminalit?t erheblich geringere Registrierung von Straftaten, die von Frauen begangen werden, gilt als kriminologisches Grundwissen. Ebenso alt wie das Wissen um die ungleiche Verteilung der Kriminalit?t sind die Versuche, die Diskrepanz zwischen den Geschlechtern kriminologisch zu deuten. Mittlerweile existiert eine Vielzahl von kriminologischen Untersuchungen zur Kriminalit?t von Frauen, aber auch zur Frage, warum die Verteilung der registrierten Kriminalit?t zwischen den Geschlechtern un

Overview: This book examines the transformation of Soviet labour ideology during the last decade of the USSR, and its critical relationship to the collapse of the Soviet state. The author focuses on regime attempts to revive Soviet economic performance on the basis of increased labour productivity, and shows how their failure had unforeseen and catastrophic consequences for the legitimacy of the state. Far from reinvigorating concepts about the role and nature of labour in Soviet society, the regime succeeded only in demonstrating its own impotence and unsustainability.978-0-230-59926-0

Overview: In the past ten years, full-scale simulation training has become dramatically more evident in undergraduate and graduate medical education. This increase has been due pri- marily to two factors: the development of new computer-driven technology and an interest in simulation-specific training techniques. Technologically, simulators have evolved from simple anatomical reproductions to full-scale accurate reproductions of anatomy and physiology powered by multiple computers. High-technology simulation centers run by teams of faculty are emerging as integral tools in fulfilling medical c
