Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - The doctrine of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) now enjoys widespread support. Companies are enjoined not simply to seek profit but to demonstrate their 'corporate citizenship' by working with a range of stakeholders to further environmental and social as well as economic goals. Pressures for such behaviour have come from NGOs but have been taken up by academics, other commentators and multinational enterprises themselves. David Henderson examines the CSR doctrine, subjecting it to fundamental ciriticisms. In this controversial text he argues that, far from being harmless, its adoption threatens prosperity in poor countries as well as rich. It is likely to reduce competition and economic freedom and to undermine the market economy.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - This collection of articles from Language Learning illustrates the range of current inquiry into form-focused instruction and its effects on second language learning. The articles report both experimental and descriptive studies, addressing such issues as the effectiveness of form-focused instruction, the role of input-processing instruction, the relationship between attention and language learning, the sequence of acquisition in instructed learners, and the provision of corrective feedback in class-room settings. In addition to articles reporting empirical studies, two articles provide comprehensive overviews of the experimental and descriptive research. Ellis' introductory chapter offers an historical survey of research into form-focused instruction together with an analysis of key theoretical constructs and methodological issues. The book is of relevance to both second language researchers and teacher educators.
