Governance in Russian Regions A Policy Comparison【電子書籍】楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞This book investigates the emergence and working of governance networks in contemporary Russia. Drawing on a case study design, it provides a novel comparison of seven policy issues each investigated across various Russian regions or over time. Its authors reveal that governance networks are a ubiquitous phenomenon emerging in different regime types. It sheds light on how and why state authorities interact with non-state actors and unravels various types, functions and flavours of governance networks in Russia. By precisely tracing how state authorities govern networks under the terms of a hybrid regime, special emphasis is placed on the analysis of ‘meta-governance’ tools. Moreover, the book allows for theorising on governance in an increasingly authoritarian regime and thus can also be read as a unique contribution to research on governance theory in general. Creating a clear analytical framework it reflects the richness of governance theory and offers fresh perspectives on the nature of hybrid and ‘new’ authoritarian regimes. This original work will appeal to students and scholars of Russian Studies, public policy, political science, sociology, and public administration.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちらをクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。	12,154円
Investing in Commodities A comparison of Commodity-ETFs with other financial products and its particularities for private investors in Germany【電子書籍】[ Patrick Maul ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞Bachelor Thesis from the year 2010 in the subject Business economics - Investment and Finance, grade: 1,3, University of Applied Sciences Frankfurt am Main (International Finance), language: English, abstract: Commodities and especially investments in commodities are currently enjoying a high degree of attention by institutional investors such as pension funds and portfolio managers but an increasing interest in commodities can also be found at retail investors. Unlike bonds, stocks, mutual and exchange traded funds, commodities are real, tangible products and part of people's everyday life. Even though commodities are essential for our survival, recently commodities as an asset class were part of excessive media coverage, investments in that asset class has become interesting for private investors. In this Bachelor Thesis I give insight into the commodity sector as an investment opportunity especially for private investors in Germany. I will refrain from presenting the historical development of the physical commodity market, but this work shows the facts about the six most important opportunities provided in the financial market to participate in the development in as Jim Rogers describes it: the world's best market.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちらをクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。	1,373円
Ideology And The Fall Of Empires: The Decline Of The Spanish Empire And Its Comparison To Current American Strategy【電子書籍】[ Major Enrique Gomariz Devesa ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞Sometimes, the ideology that formed the basis for founding an empire can become the cause of its fall. The decline of the Spanish Empire is a clear example of how ideology may both adversely influence national grand strategies and trigger processes of decline of an empire. The strong religious conviction of the Habsburgs was a fundamental factor in defining an imperial strategy that did not conform to the genuine interests of Spain as the core of the Empire. This strategy did not take into account limited Spanish capabilities that were not enough to achieve its religious goals.＜br /＞ The purpose of this research is not to analyze in depth how religion influenced the decline of the Spanish Empire, but to use this process to establish a paradigm to explain how ideologies can become a negative influence on national policies. Once the paradigm is established, it will be compared to a similar process to develop some valid conclusions regarding the importance of defining national strategic objectives according to the interests and capabilities of each state.＜br /＞ Over the last two decades, the desire to expand and promote democracy around the world became the dominant ideology in the United States. Therefore, its influence in the evolution of recent American national strategies serves as a valid comparison. This study presents some conclusions that not only might be applicable for the analysis and study of national strategies, but also may help to understand how and when ideologies that may be necessary to maintain the cohesion of nations and empires, can became a source of national decline.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちらをクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。	132円
Cultural Capital and Parental Involvement A Comparison of Students’ Music Participation between Beijing and Hong Kong【電子書籍】[ Siu-hang Kong ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞This book uses Pierre Bourdieu’s cultural capital model as a theoretical framework for exploring how students in Beijing and Hong Kong perceive parental influencesーtheir parents’ cultural capital and supportーon their participation in musical activities. By studying students’ perceptions of their parents’ cultural capital and support for their musical activities, this book revisits the applicability of Bourdieu’s cultural capital model in the contemporary Chinese context and reveals how inequality in terms of parental cultural capital governs parents’ support and influences the intergenerational transmission of cultural capital, which in turn contributes to inequality in terms of students’ cultural capital.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちらをクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。	14,585円
Why Use Natural Healing A Comparison of the Science and Efficacy of Natural Healing with That of Pharmaceuticals【電子書籍】[ Fletcher Kovich ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞The book compares the science and efficacy of natural healing with that of pharmaceuticals.＜/p＞＜p＞A person usually becomes ill due to subtle organ malfunctions, induced by various stresses. There is a natural resonance between each organ and certain bodily locations, and traditional acupuncture uses this resonance to return the organs to normal function, which clears all symptoms and produces a genuine cure.＜/p＞＜p＞Whereas today’s drug-based approach has no ability to remedy such organ malfunctions. Instead its usual approach is to chemically block the normal function of healthy aspects of the body, in an attempt to conceal symptoms. In the process, such drugs also accidentally chemically block the main organs from working normally, which is what produces most adverse effects and prevents the patient from ever returning to full health. This approach, though damaging to health, has become today’s medical religion.＜/p＞＜p＞This is why mainstream healthcare often finds itself unable to properly treat many common conditions. In contrast, natural healing successfully treats those same conditions by simply returning the organs to normal function.＜/p＞＜p＞The book demonstrates the natural healing approach to most conditions, and this is compared to the drug-based approach, including the fraudulent conduct of drug companies in concealing harms, manipulating data, and making false claims for their drugs to boost sales at the expense of world health.＜/p＞＜p＞Ironically, the book shows that a 2,000 year old medical system is far more scientific, effective, and genuinely evidence based than today’s mainstream healthcare.＜/p＞＜p＞Fletcher Kovich works as a traditional acupuncture practitioner and researcher. He developed and tested the intelligent tissue theory, which, for the first time, scientifically explains how acupuncture works to correct organ malfunctions.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちらをクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。	776円

Understanding American Identity: An Introduction - Comparison with Roman and Soviet Identity, Role of Patriotism, Nationalism, Separable Identities, National Service, Civic Education, and Technology【電子書籍】[ Progressive Management ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞This important December 2017 report has been professionally converted for accurate flowing-text e-book format reproduction.＜/p＞＜p＞Why are Americans' identity narratives important for national security? This thesis utilizes a qualitative approach to analyze American identity narratives in U.S. history and contemporary society. The historic disagreement over the distribution of the fundamental American value of liberty makes the possibility of a cohesive national identity challenging. Given the effects of globalization, advances in technology, and changes in traditional demographic and sociocultural trends, any form of a national-level, narrative-based identity is not a feasible means to unify Americans. Leaders must make domestic policy decisions that increase inclusiveness in American society and avoid valuing one identity over another. Policymakers must depart from divisive identity policies in favor of those that unify Americans. Any attempt to shape the existing conflict in terms of identity is contrary to a cohesive society and, more importantly, threatens national security. This research led to two policy recommendations. First, the United States must encourage separable identities and emphasize citizens as individuals rather than groups. Second, policymakers must promote "cross-cutting ties," since much of the division in the United States stems from the isolation from one another that many citizens experience. Revamped civic education and national service programs can serve to form those cross-cutting ties.＜/p＞＜p＞I. INTRODUCTION * A. INTRODUCTION * B. WHY IDENTITY MATTERS * C.

Qur’An-Bible Comparison A Topical Study of the Two Most Influential and Respectful Books in Western and Middle Eastern Civilizations【電子書籍】[ Ami Ben-Chanan ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞As one of the biggest and most rapidly growing religions, the Islamic faith attracts a lot of attention and debates. The last sixty years have been witness to innumerable conflicts between Muslims and Jews, and Muslims and the western world (notably Christians). Many famous people have accepted Islam, and increasing numbers of westerners are becoming Muslims every year. Muslim scholars loudly proclaim that the Quran is the only Holy Book sent by God, and Islam is the last religion, the purpose of which is to spread its tenets around the globe and to build a world-wide Caliphate. The attack and subsequent destruction of the World Trade Towers in New York City on September 11, 2001, motivated author Ami Ben-Chanan to pose this question: Does the Quran mention a Holy War against those who do not believe in Allah as God and in Mohammed as Gods Prophet? In studying the Quran in detail, he discovered many biblical events and characters that seem to run parallel. Or do they? Intrigued, he decided to bring all references together into one file and compare them to each other. The result is ＜em＞Quran-Bible Comparison,＜/em＞ a compendium that provides the facts needed to fully explore this question.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちらをクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。	1,144円
Comparison of adverts in typical men and women magazines【電子書籍】[ Susan Waezi ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞Seminar paper from the year 2006 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Culture and Applied Geography, grade: 2,0, University of Duisburg-Essen (English departement at Duisburg-Essen University), course: Mediawatch SS 2006, 6 entries in the bibliography, language: English, abstract: How would be a world without advertisement? Would it still be possible to attract people for special goods or products? Advertisement means communication, and without communication it is almost impossible to call attention to what one would like to bring to market. So adverts provide a well-directed and conscious influence on human beings. But how different can such an influence be in men and women magazines? In the following essay I am going to write about British magazines, especially about advertisement that is made in typical men and women magazines, whereby I try to work out the details of possible differences between the adverts - if there are some at least. I will concentrate on only two magazines that are: Company and Maxim; two typical men and women magazines that I have chosen unintended to find some interesting adverts by chance. The first step will be that I will briefly introduce the two magazines to get an overview about their contents and the main topics they write about. After this I am going to give examples for adverts in men and women magazines, from each of the two introduced magazines three. I will try to describe them in detail and illustrate their intentions towards their readers and audience respectively. Especially how the adverts are made up and which techniques the advertisers use, belong to the main point of this essay. Finally I am going to compare the three adverts of both magazines with each other and try to find out some differences between, or maybe common grounds with advertisement in men and women magazines. In this connexion I will draw a conclusion and sum up my results that I hopefully will get from my breakdown.

The Legislatures of the United States And Germany. A Comparison【電子書籍】[ Maren Reyelt ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞Seminar paper from the year 2001 in the subject Politics - International Politics - Region: USA, grade: very good, University of Wyoming (Department of Political Science), course: U.S. Presidency And Congress, 22 entries in the bibliography, language: English, abstract: 'Legislatures have one core defining function: that of giving assent to measures that, by virtue of that as-sent, are to be binding on society. In practice, they have usually other roles as well, such as debating meas-ures or the conduct of public affairs. They have existed for centuries. They span the globe. Most countries have one; federal states have several.' This statement applies to both institutions my paper deals with: to the United States Congress as well as to Germany's parliament. The constitutional core of both political systems is actually a powerful bicameral parliament vested with the power to enact legislation. However, the structure of power of the American Congress in comparison to the German system is different in regard to the relationship of both chambers to each other on the one hand and to the executive on the other hand. But both institutions share the same essential functions of representing the people of their country, of counterbalancing the executive power and of developing legislation. Germany's political system is build upon a parliamentary structure, where the power of the executive depends on a prime minister or chancellor and his cabinet getting their mandate from the legislature and thus being responsible to and depending on the support of it. On the contrary, the United States features a presidential system, where the president is both head of the state and head of the government, independent from the legislature, which can be dominated by the oppos-ing party (divided government). But this does not mean that the two branches cannot be com-pared. Because of their position within the federal system (as described above) and the similar composition of the branches, a comparison is more than just possible. It was the high influence of the allied powers and in particular of the United States occupation policy after World War II that made the German parliament bicameral. Its first chamber, the Bundestag (Federal Diet) corresponds to the United States House of Representa-tives, the Bundesrat (Federal Council) is comparable to the United States Senate - although I have to admit, that Germany's chambers are created unequal.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちらをクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。	1,487円
The Taxation of Corporate Groups under Consolidation An International Comparison【電子書籍】[ Antony Ting ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞The rise of corporate groups in the last century dictates a shift in the income tax law: instead of treating each company as a separate taxpayer, the tax consolidation regime is increasingly common. Antony Ting presents the first comprehensive comparative study of eight consolidation regimes in Australia, France, Italy, Japan, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Spain and the USA. In the study, he critically analyses and compares alternative policy options with respect to ten key structural elements. The study improves understanding of the design and implementation of consolidation regimes and sets the stage for the search for a model. It provides valuable information with respect to the best practices, as well as the pitfalls, in the design of a consolidation regime. The book is essential to countries contemplating the introduction of a new consolidation regime and offers important insights into the management of such a complex structure through careful policy-orientated choices.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちらをクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。	15,490円
Five Partings of Way in World History A Comparison- Translated by Bradley Schmidt and Bryn Roberts【電子書籍】[ Gottfried Schramm ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞This comparative analysis argues that there were four or, more likely, five major turning points of world history, whose lasting effects are being felt to this day. These turning points show striking resemblances to each other: An apparently coherent community of shared convictions and a shared way of life splits unexpectedly in two, with one section swerving off on the road to a radically new set of values. This has probably been true of the rise of monotheism in opposition to the existing polytheistic norms of Oriental cultures. It has been true of the primitive Christian Church breaking away from Judaism. It was true of the Protestants breaking away from Rome. It also has been true for two secular revolutions: the independence of the United States of America inventing the republican order of representative democracy, and the Russian Revolution, when the revolutionaries decided to give up on peaceful socialism and resort to violence.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちらをクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。	9,767円
Auditing Practices in Local Governments An International Comparison【電子書籍】楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞Public spending accounts for a significant share of national GDP and is perceived as a critically important way for overcoming periods of economic and social crisis, but is often criticised as inefficient and ineffective, giving raise to calls for new processes of reform. Because most public resources are raised through taxation from citizens and businesses, accountability and assurance are key in the democratic process, and auditing attempts to fulfil this public interest role. This in turn leaves public sector auditing under increasing public scrutiny and political pressure.＜/p＞＜p＞Through a comparative analysis of the development of auditing practices in governments across the globe, ＜em＞Auditing Practices in Local Governments: An International Comparison＜/em＞ provides a contemporary overview of public sector auditing practices at both local and state level. By focusing on countries which have experienced differing implementation processes, and which are characterised by different administrative and political cultures, the authors provide a comparative analysis of countries across the globe, including major European states, China, Australia, and New Zealand.＜/p＞＜p＞Written by scholars and practitioners in the fields of public sector auditing, this first volume of ＜em＞Emerald Studies in Public Service Accounting and Accountability＜/em＞ provides readers both researchers and practitioners with a thorough overview of international public sector auditing practice.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちらをクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。	10,681円
Guilt, Forgiveness, and Moral Repair A Cross-Cultural Comparison【電子書籍】楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞In current debates about coming to terms with individual and collective wrongdoing, the concept of forgiveness has played an important but controversial role. For a long time, the idea was widespread that a forgiving attitude ー overcoming feelings of resentment and the desire for revenge ー was always virtuous. Recently, however, this idea has been questioned. The contributors to this volume do not take sides for or against forgiveness but rather examine its meaning and function against the backdrop of a more complex understanding of moral repair in a variety of social, circumstantial, and cultural contexts. The book aims to gain a differentiated understanding of the European traditions regarding forgiveness, revenge, and moral repair that have shaped our moral intuitions today whilst also examining examples from other cultural contexts (Asia and Africa, in particular) to explore how different cultural traditions deal with the need for moral repair after wrongdoing.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちらをクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。	15,800円
Italian Fascism and Spanish Falangism in Comparison Constructing the Nation【電子書籍】[ Giorgia Priorelli ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞This book compares the Italian Fascist and the Spanish Falangist political cultures from the early 1930s to the early 1940s, using the idea of the nation as the focus of the comparison. It argues that the discourse on the nation represented a common denominator between these two manifestations of the fascist phenomenon in Mussolini’s Italy and Franco’s Spain. Exploring the similarities and differences between these two political cultures, this study investigates how Fascist and Falangist ideologues defined and developed their own idea of the nation over time to legitimise their power within their respective countries. It examines to what extent their concept of the nation influenced Italian and Spanish domestic and foreign policies. The book offers a four-level framework for understanding the evolution of the fascist idea of the nation: the ideology of the nation, the imperial projects of Fascism and Falangism, race and the nation, and the place of these cultures in the new Nazi continental order. In doing so, it shows how these ideas of the nation had significant repercussions on fascist political practice.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちらをクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。	12,154円
Modern America and Ancient Rome An Essay in Historical Comparison and Analogy【電子書籍】[ Simon Kiessling DeCourcy ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞Mounting social inequality, the increased political polarization, and the republic's transformation into an empire of consumption - these are just a few of the similarities between modern America and ancient Rome.＜/p＞＜p＞How does America relate to Europe, and how did the Romans see their Greek colonies - and vice versa?

The book discusses the political, social, cultural and mental differences between the ancient Greeks and Romans and puts them in perspective with those between modern Americans and Europeans.＜/p＞＜p＞Dr. Kiessling presents a politico-philosophical book drawing analogies between the history of antiquity and the history of the modern world in general, and ancient Rome and modern America in particular. The book discusses the political, social, cultural and mental differences between the ancient Greeks and Romans and puts them in perspective with those between modern Americans and Europeans.＜/p＞＜p＞The subjects of analysis include the different levels of commitment to religion, the responsiveness to post-heroic values, the attitudes to war and peace, moral permissiveness, demography, the susceptibility to universalistic ideas and supra-nationalism and the different levels of belief in the political capacity of the nation and its constitutional framework. The book also links the way in which Greeks and Romans saw each other with the way in which modern Americans and the Europeans relate to each other.＜/p＞＜p＞At the core of the discussion are the socio-economic, political and intellectual challenges facing present-day America, as the social coil holding Americans together since World War II threatens to disintegrate.

Word Geography of England and Deutscher Wortatlas - A Comparison【電子書籍】[ Alena Friedrich ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞Seminar paper from the year 2001 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Linguistics, grade: 1,0 (A), University of Leipzig (Anglistics), course: English Dialects and Dialectology, 17 entries in the bibliography, language: English, abstract: 'Harold Orton often told us that it was the eleventh hour, that dialect was rapidly disappearing, and that this [the Survey of English Dialects] was a last-minute exercise to scoop out the last remaining vestige of dialect before it died out under the pressure of modern movement and communication'. (Stanley Ellis, In: Rawling, p.1) As Stanley Ellis, one of Harold Orton's colleagues in the Survey of English Dialects, points out in this quote, English linguists became aware in the 1950s that it was high time for a long-term dialect survey in their home country. Orton, the initiator of the Survey of English Dialects, knew that the modern means of communication, the increasing urbanisation and the decreasing number of those informants who were still untouched by modernisation, would soon make it impossible to collect authentic data of English dialects. So they started work as soon as possible. Later, a number of English dialect atlases were brought out on the basis of the SED; among them the lexicon-based Word Geography of England by Harold Orton and Nathalia Wright. When the German linguist Georg Wenker carried out his first dialect surveys in Germany in the 1890s, the problem of modernisation was not as significant as it was 60 years later. Wenker's motivation rather was to find clear dialect boundaries in Germany and later in the entire German speaking area. With his far-reaching survey, the Deutscher Sprachatlas, Wenker laid the foundation of German dialectology, causing many linguists to adopt his example in the following years. One of these linguists was Walther Mitzka who published the first lexical dialect atlas for the German speaking area, namely the Deutscher Wortatlas. The aim of the following essay will be to compare the WGE and the DWA. The comparison will be carried out, firstly, with regard to the methodology of the surveys which provided the data for the atlases, and, secondly, with regard to the actual publications, i.e. the WGE and the DWA themselves. In order to make the comparison comprehensible for the reader I have added some material from the atlases to the appendix. Furthermore, a table which lists the differences between the DWA and the WGE in short form, is added. Finally, the appendix includes a newspaper article which describes the data collection of the SED in York.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちらをクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。	458円
Interreligious Comparisons in Religious Studies and Theology Comparison Revisited【電子書籍】楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞Can religions be compared? For decades the discipline of religious studies was based on the assumption that they can. Postmodern and postcolonial reflections, however, raised significant doubts. In social and cultural studies the investigation of the particular often took precedence over a comparative perspective. ＜em＞Interreligious Comparisons in Religious Studies and Theology＜/em＞ questions whether religious studies can survive if it ceases to be comparative religion. Can it do justice to a globalized world if it is limited on the specific and turns a blind eye on the general?＜/p＞＜p＞While comparative approaches have come under strong pressure in religious studies, they have started flourishing in Theology. Comparative theology practices interfaith dialogue by means of comparative research. This volume asks whether theology and religious studies are able to mutually benefit from their critical and constructive reflections. Can postcolonial criticism of neutrality and objectivity in religious studies create new links with the decidedly perspectival approach of comparative theology?＜/p＞＜p＞In this collection scholars from theology and religious studies discuss the methodology of interreligious comparison in the light of recent doubts and current objections. Together with the contributors, Perry Schmidt-Leukel and Andreas Nehring argue that after decades of critique, interreligious comparison deserves to be reconsidered, reconstructed and reintroduced.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちらをクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。	4,897円
Feminism, Culture and Embodied Practice The Rhetorics of Comparison【電子書籍】[ Carolyn Pedwell ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞Within both feminist theory and popular culture, establishing similarities between embodied practices rooted in different cultural and geo-political contexts (e.g. ‘African’ female genital cutting and ‘Western’ cosmetic surgery) has become increasingly common as a means of countering cultural essentialism, ethnocentrism and racism.＜/p＞＜p＞＜em＞Feminism, Culture and Embodied Practice＜/em＞ examines how cross cultural comparisons of embodied practices function as a rhetorical device ? with particular theoretical, social and political effects - in a range of contemporary feminist texts. It asks: Why and how are cross-cultural links among these practices drawn by feminist theorists and commentators, and what do these analogies do? What knowledges, hierarchies and figurations do these comparisons produce, disrupt and/or reify in feminist theory, and how do such effects resonate within popular culture? Taking a relational web approach that focuses on unravelling the binary threads that link specific embodied practices within a wider representational community, this book highlights how we depend on and affect one another across cultural and geo-political contexts.＜/p＞＜p＞This book is valuable reading for undergraduates, postgraduates, and researchers in Gender Studies, Postcolonial or Race Studies, Cultural and Media Studies, and other related disciplines.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちらをクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。	9,346円
Multilateral Wellbeing Comparison in a Many Dimensioned World Ordering and Ranking Collections of Groups【電子書籍】[ Gordon Anderson ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞This book addresses the disparities that arise when measuring and modeling societal behavior and progress across the social sciences. It looks at why and how different disciplines and even researchers can use the same data and yet come to different conclusions about equality of opportunity, economic and social mobility, poverty and polarization, and conflict and segregation. Because societal behavior and progress exist only in the context of other key aspects, modeling becomes exponentially more complex as more of these aspects are factored into considerations. The content of this book transcends disciplinary boundaries, providing valuable information on measuring and modeling to economists, sociologists, and political scientists who are interested in data-based analysis of pressing social issues.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちらをクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。	7,292円

Early Social Interaction A Case Comparison of Developmental Pragmatics and Psychoanalytic Theory【電子書籍】[ Michael A. Forrester ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞When a young child begins to engage in everyday interaction, she has to acquire competencies that allow her to be oriented to the conventions that inform talk-in-interaction and, at the same time, deal with emotional or affective dimensions of experience. The theoretical positions associated with these domains - social-action and emotion - provide very different accounts of human development and this book examines why this is the case. Through a longitudinal video-recorded study of one child learning how to talk, Michael A. Forrester develops proposals that rest upon a comparison of two perspectives on everyday parent-child interaction taken from the same data corpus - one informed by conversation analysis and ethnomethodology, the other by psychoanalytic developmental psychology. Ultimately, what is significant for attaining membership within any culture is gradually being able to display an orientation towards both domains - doing and feeling, or social-action and affect.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちらをクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。	6,087円
WOMEN IN MANAGEMENT A COMPARISON OF NIGERIA AND GERMANY USING CULTURAL THEORIES OF HOFSTEDE AND LEWIS【電子書籍】[ RITA SHARON IKHUORIA ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞ABSTRACT＜br /＞ This Bachelor's thesis examines women's management from different perspectives. It draws the comparison of women in management in Nigeria and German using Hofstede and Lewis's cultural theories. Throughout this thesis, the methodology and analytics are from various expert sources in the business management field, including the data gathered from interviews and published journals. Women management has served both Nigeria and Germany dating back to independence and the early renaissance period. Since its inception, numerous arguments have been drawn both for and against women's role in entrepreneurship and international business as well. The comparison of both cultures is based on Lewis's and Hofstede's perspectives. The analysis of Hofstede's outlook mainly involves comparison in power distance, individualism versus collectivism, and masculinity versus femininity. Of particular significance, Lewis's perspective is linear active and multi-active. This thesis's analysis forms the most significant structure in which the entire project dimension and hierarchal system justification are based. Nigeria has high power distance index standards, and the perfect manager is considered a benevolent autocrat, unlike Germany, which is very decentralized and filled with stable middle-class managers＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちらをクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。	1,335円
