Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Essay from the year 2007 in the subject Politics - International Politics - Topic: Globalization, Political Economics, grade: 1,0 (A), , course: Global Studies 221 -Globalization and Culture: the Cosmopolitan Village , language: English, abstract: The topic of this essay is 'nutritional globalization' -respectively, the detrimental impacts it can have on our daily lives. The notion of 'nutritional globalization' for the purposes of this essay will include the following aspects: first of all, nowadays all kinds of comestibles can be sourced worldwide without any problems (Lang, 1999). This development is based on several economic processes such as trade liberalization and tariff reductions. Thus, comestibles which could formerly only be found in Asia for example, are now available all over the world. Hence, it can be argued that food is slowly losing its roots in terms of identification of a certain comestible with a certain culture. Second, the global food market is increasingly controlled by multinational corporations forcing smaller national enterprises and family farmers out of business (Lang, 1999). The third meaning refers to the spread of fast food which can be observed throughout the world. The fourth and last meaning refers to food and eating habits as a part of culture and a means of communication. Thus, we will observe 'nutritional globalization' on an economic and a cultural level.As will be demonstrated during the course of this essay, 'Nutritional globalization' as defined above has severe detrimental impacts not only on people's health - which is reflected in the ever-increasing number of chronic degenerative diseases - but also on people's social life. …

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Essay from the year 2007 in the subject Politics - Political Systems - General and Comparisons, grade: 1,0 (A), , course: Canada in the World, From Laurier to 21st Century, language: English, abstract: Immigration policy is a crucial element of a country's policy making. In each country it developed throughout the history of the respective country and, thus, reflects a nation's historical development. However, immigration policy does not only reflect the past or historical development of a country or nation, it is also continuously adjusted to contemporary economic, cultural and political events and developments (Finley 27). Thus, it suggests itself that this element of policy making is a very vivid one, since it does not discontinue changing. Moreover, it is a well-known fact that the distinct historical pasts of different countries led to varying approaches to and systems of immigration policy. Throughout the past decades countries all over the world have witnessed skyrocketing numbers of migrants. While in 1960 there were 76 million migrants worldwide, their number had more than doubled by 2000 with 175 million and further increased drastically to 200 million migrants in 2005 worldwide. Thus, international migrants, including more than nine million refugees, are now said to account for 3% of the world's population (Finley 27). It goes without saying that it is primarily the rich western countries such as Canada and Germany that attract immigrants due to the fact they are able to provide sophisticated standards of living. Thus, it suggests itself that the ever-increasing number of migrants into western countries call for well-functioning laws and systems governing the influx and the integration of these migrants. Thus, as already indicated by its topic, this essay will shed some light on how the two countries try to govern the influx of immigrants and compare their policies and policy systems.In order to be able to compare both policies with each other, the essay will begin by providing a brief historical background of Canadian and German immigration and afterwards describe the contemporary immigration policies of both countries briefly. Thereafter, the following distinct elements of these policies in both countries respectively the factors influencing them will be compared: growth of population and economic implications, restrictions, and integration vs. xenophobia. The aim of this essay is to find out whether the two systems are rather similar to each other or completely different.…

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Research Paper (undergraduate) from the year 2008 in the subject Business economics - Economic Policy, grade: 1,3, University of Applied Sciences Hof, language: English, abstract: Over the past centuries, Japan's economy has witnessed not only one but several severe economic crises. The latest however -and probably the most ferocious one- was the one that occurred in the 1990s and lasted around ten successive years. This essay will shed some light on the background, the progression as well as the implications of Japan's lost decade. Thus, the essay will first provide a brief overview of the Japan's post-WW II economy before it dwells on the most severe crisis in the 1990s, followed by the watershed in 2003. Last but not least, the essay will draw on today's Japanese economic situation. It will thereby become apparent that Japanese economic history has led to the more than justified question as to whether Japan is a 'Phoenix or Quagmire' in respect of its economy. Thus, the conclusion will round off this essay by attempting to answer this question and hence, the title of this paper.…

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Travail d'étude de l'année 2009 dans le domaine Politique - Politique internationale - Région: Afrique, note: 1,0, Fachhochschule Hof, langue: Français, résumé: De nos jours, presque tout le monde a déjà entendu parler du commerce équitable. Mais qu'en savons-nous vraiment Est-ce que nous connaissons son fonctionnement Est-ce que nous connaissons des exemples de commerce équitable -soit des produits soit des pays engagés Je me suis moi-même trouvée dans cette situation il n'y a pas longtemps. Puis, j'ai eu une discussion intéressante avec un étudiant étranger qui s'intéresse particulièrement à ce sujet. En entendant ce qu'il disait à propos du commerce équitable, j'ai réalisé que, en tant que personne éduquée et étudiant le management international, il ne suffit pas de savoir que le commerce équitable existe. Par conséquent, ce travail d'étude contient non seulement des informations de base mais encore des exemples pratiques du système commercial international. Il représente un guide permettant d'informer et de porter attention à une autre pratique du commerce que celle toujours enseignée en universités. Pour illustrer le sujet j'ai choisi le Burkina Faso comme l'exemple type d'un pays engagé dans le commerce équitable.Ce travail d'étude commencera donc avec un bref aperçu du Burkina Faso. Ceci permettra de donner une vue d'ensemble du pays afin de mieux comprendre les raisons de son engagement dans le commerce équitable. Ensuite, j'expliquerai la notion du commerce équitable en général avant d'illustrer ses implications au Burkina Faso. On considérera deux exemples concrets qui montrent le développement du commerce équitable au Burkina. Enfin la conclusion offrira un résumé de ce travail et ouvrira des pistes de réflexion.…

Kira ist f?nfzehn und tr?gt mehr auf den Schultern, als ein M?dchen in ihrem Alter tragen sollte.Der Tod ihres Vaters hat eine Wunde hinterlassen, die nicht heilen will.

Hardback. Condition: New. In recent years, the international engagement of the EU's decentralized agencies has continued to increase in the absence of a clear political and legal framework for their activities. This timely book addresses urgent questions about these agencies' external actions and their effects, how these should be conceptualized and assessed, and how they can and should be governed in the future. Bringing together pioneering interdisciplinary work from European legal and political scholars, this book combines theory with empirical case studies to explore an underdeveloped field and identify a future research agenda. Chapters first comprehensively examine the relevant legal frameworks and the political aspects of these decentralized agencies' external activities, before exploring the questions this raises around their own and the EU's legitimacy and accountability, and the impact of agencies on countries outside the EU who have dealings with them. Scholars in law, political science, economics and public administration will find this book invaluable, particularly those working on external relations, agencification or institutional innovation. It will also prove useful to policymakers at EU and national level, as well as other stakeholders such as non-EU countries and international organizations.…
