Alison Larkin selects and introduces fairytales of strong, independent, brave, at times irreverent girls and women who take charge of their lives, go on their own adventures, rescue themselves and sometimes even save the men they love. These are not stories of helpless females shut up in high towers waiting around for a handsome man to rescue them while they sleep for years or from brushing their golden hair a lot. These heroines have far more to distinguish them than the fact that they (sometimes) end up married to a prince. Stories included: The Snow Queen by Hans Christian Andersen, Molly Whuppie and the Double-faced Giant by Flora Annie Steel, A Pottle of Brains by Joseph Jacobs, Cap O Rushes by Joseph Jacobs, Hansel and Gretel by the Brothers Grimm, Mr. Fox by Joseph Jacobs, Clever Grethel by the Brothers Grimm, Kari Woodengown by P.C. Absjornsen, The Twelve Dancing Princesses by the Brothers Grimm, Felicia and the Pot of Pinks by Madame la Comtesse d'Aulnoy, The Iron Stove by Miss Mulock, The Hedley Kow by Joseph Jacobs, The Six Sillies by Monsieur Lemoine, Baba Yaga a Russian folk tale re-told by Verra Xenophontovna Kalamatiano De Blumenthal, The Old Woman in the Woods by the Brothers Grimm, The Idle Spinner by the Brothers Grimm, The Twelve Brothers by the Brothers Grimm, Frederick and Catherine by the Brothers Grimm, Little Red Cap by the Brothers Grimm, Beauty and The Beast by Marie Le Prince de Beaumont.

In his timely study, Andrii Demartino investigates the multitude of techniques how social media can be used to advance an aggressive foreign policy, as exemplified by the Russian Federation’s operation to annex Crimea in 2014. Drawing on a wide range of sources, Demartino traces the implementation of a series of Russian measures to create channels and organisations manipulating public opinion in the Ukrainian segment of the internet and on platforms such as Facebook, VKontakte, Odnoklassniki, LiveJournal, and Twitter.
Addressing the pertinent question of how much the operation to annex Crimea was either improvised or planned, he draws attention to Russia’s ad-hoc actions in the sphere of social media in 2014. Based on an in-depth analysis of the methods of Russia’s influence operations, the book proposes a number of counterstrategies to prevent such “active measures.” These propositions can serve to improve Ukraine’s national information policy as well as help to develop adequate security concepts of other states.

Wo sind die kritischen Streiter, die geistigen Kraftzentren, die die Debatten ?ber die EU, Pandemiegesetze oder die Zukunft der Demokratie anf?hren? Sind sie im Medienwandel untergegangen? Auf welche Weise haben die Intellektuellen den europ?ischen Einigungsprozess beeinflusst? Und was tun sie heute in der Corona-Krise? Haben sie Europa verlassen? Gar verraten, wie schon Julien Benda vor gut 100 Jahre meinte? Es gibt sie nicht mehr, jedenfalls als Typus. Dies ist ein enormer kultureller und politischer Verlust. Faust oder Mephisto – auf diesen Mythos ?bertr?gt Willi Jasper die intellektuelle Krise Europas. Die wirtschaftliche und politische Vorherrschaft Deutschlands steht f?r Faust: die antiintellektuelle Funktionalisierung der Macht. Doch wenn wir eine lebendige transnationale europ?ische Demokratie wollen, brauchen wir den freien, einklagenden, kritischen Geist. Er geh?rt zu Politik und Gesellschaft wie Mephisto zu Faust. ?bernehmen die neuen «Medienintellektuellen» sein Erbe?

In this amply illustrated book, Hellman and Rogachevskii tell the fascinating story behind the screen adaptation of one of the most impactful novels of all times. Despite its huge global success, Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn refused all offers to have his One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich turned into a movie for many years for artistic reasons. It took the full resolve and commitment of the Finnish director Caspar Wrede to bring this challenging project to fruition, eight years after the novel had been published.


This second, expanded edition of 'Filming the Unfilmable' offers an all-encompassing account of the movie's production, reception and impact. Filled with little-known facts, it also gives unique and valuable insights into Solzhenitsyn's complex relationship with the art of filmmaking."

Fremde Wesen landen auf der Erde und schleichen sich nach Bedarf in die Tr?ume der Menschen ein, um diese f?r ihre Zwecke gef?gig zu machen. Sie f?hlen sich erst aufgrund ihres technischen Fortschritts sehr selbstsicher, um dann sp?ter feststellen zu m?ssen, dass Menschen in Angst kein gegenseitiges Vertrauen aufbauen k?nnen, welches gerade hier so bitter n?tig ist. Nebenbei sind f?r die Wesen viele Selbstverst?ndlichkeiten der Erdenb?rger interessant und kurios: Die Lust, etwas geniessen zu wollen, der freie Wille, sich f?r oder gegen etwas entscheiden zu k?nnen, oder, trotz Herdentrieb, ein Individualist zu bleiben. Carl Boromeo ist Unternehmensberater der Handelsfirma Finegood. Er m?chte im Beruf „einen Gang zur?ckschalten“, da er das heutige Wirtschaftssystem satt hat. Stattdessen erh?lt ausgerechnet er von den Wesen den Auftrag, undercover Aluminium und Diamanten in ungeheuren Mengen an der B?rse zu kaufen. Seine Compagnons sind B?rsenh?ndler: Der Yuppie James Locklear, sowie der orthodoxe Jude Ruben Stern, charakterlich zwei komplett unterschiedliche Typen, die auf ganz differenzierte Art und Weise ihren Auftrag erledigen. Als grosser Financier bietet sich Jakob Blumenstein an, ein steinreicher Erbe aus der Pharmabranche, der sich lieber als Mysterienversteher, denn als Gesch?ftsmann zeigt. Carl Boromeo finanziert mit Blumensteins Geld den Kauf der Rohstoffe. Und mit dem Verkauf k?nftiger Nutzungslizenzen bei Logistikunternehmen schliesst er den Geldkreislauf. Als Abgeltung f?r die guten Dienste hinterlassen die Wesen der Menschheit zwei Verm?chtnisse: Zum einen die Teleportation, sodass G?ter- und Personenverkehr ?berfl?ssig werden, und neuer Raum f?r neue Nutzung entsteht. Zum zweiten die Technik der Telepathie f?r grenzenlose Kommunikation – f?r jeden Erdenb?rgers zum Nulltarif, und ohne sich dabei sch?dlicher Strahlung aussetzen zu m?ssen. Das Projekt wird letztlich an der B?rse doch ruchbar. Eine B?rsenhausse k?nnte die Mission jetzt scheitern lassen, ein handfester Firmenkrach steht ins Haus, Raffgier und Erpressung kommen ins Spiel. Wie verkraften dies Menschen, die einen vermeintlich grossen Fisch an der Angel haben? Um weltweit eine Beruhigung der B?rsenschwankungen zu erreichen, wird eine s?damerikanische Seherin beauftragt, das Resultat von tranceartigen Sitzungen zu verf?lschen. Gar mancher f?hlt sich als Schachfigur, der nach Belieben verschoben oder gar geopfert wird. Wird Carl Boromeo dieses nervenaufreibende Spiel durchstehen, oder wird er die Stopptaste dr?cken? Kann er ?berhaupt unbeschadet diesem Albtraum entfliehen? Und die Menschheit: Verdient sie denn das sagenhafte Verm?chtnis?

There has been dramatic growth in the community of researchers and industrialists working in the area of Green Chemistry. There has been an increasing recognition by a wide-range of scientists and engineers in the chemical enterprise that the framework of Green Chemistry is relevant and enabling to their work. There has been a significant body of work that has accumulated over the past decade that details the breakthroughs, innovation and creativity within Green Chemistry and Engineering. While there have been edited volumes on Green Chemistry that collect a limited number of papers often on a particular topic area, there is not currently a series that seeks to provide a more comprehensive overview of the current state of the science. The lack of this type of series is a notable niche for which the continually growing Green Chemistry and engineering community would value and welcome.

Human Rights , now in its fourth edition, is an introductory text that is both innovative and challenging. Its unique interdisciplinary approach invites students to think imaginatively and rigorously about one of the most important and influential political concepts of our time. Tracing the history of the concept, the book shows that there are fundamental tensions between legal, philosophical and social-scientific approaches to human rights. This analysis throws light on some of the most controversial issues in the field: What are the causes of human-rights violations? Is the idea of universal human rights consistent with respect for cultural difference? Are we living in a ‘post-human rights’ world? Thoroughly revised and updated, the new edition engages with recent developments, including the Trump and Biden presidencies, colonial legacies, neoliberalism, conflict in Syria, Yemen and Myanmar, the Covid-19 pandemic, new technologies and the supposed crisis of liberal democracy. Widely admired and assigned for its clarity and comprehensiveness, this book remains a ‘go-to’ text for students in the social sciences, as well as students of human-rights law who want an introduction to the non-legal aspects of their subject.

While improvement science has experienced a surge of interest over the past 30 years, applications of it are rare in the evaluation literature. This issue promotes the cross-fertilization of ideas, techniques, and tools between evaluation and improvement science. There are at least four areas where this cross-fertilization is particularly relevant: learning from error, examining variation, appreciating context, and focusing on systems change. This volume considers: the conceptual similarities and distinctions between improvement science and evaluation; the intellectual foundations, methods, and tools that collectively comprise improvement science; and case chapters that offer an inspiring review of state-of-the-art improvement science applications. Cutting across all of these applications is a shared grounding in systems thinking, a determination to capture and better understand variation and contextual complexity, as well as a sustained commitment to generative learning about projects and programs—all issues of great concern to evaluators. The issue offers producers and users of evaluations the potential benefits of a closer engagement with improvement science. This is the 153rd issue in the New Directions for Evaluation series from Jossey-Bass. It is an official publication ofthe American Evaluation Association.

Foreword by Nan Roman, President and CEO of the National Alliance to End Homelessness This book explains how to end the U.S. homelessness crisis by bringing together the best scholarship on the subject and sharing solutions that both local communities and national policy-makers can apply now In the Midst of Plenty shifts our understanding of the phenomenon of homelessness away from issues of individual disability and embeds it in larger contexts of poverty, income inequality, housing affordability, and social exclusion. Homelessness experts Shinn and Khadduri provide guidance on how to end homelessness for people who experience it and how to prevent so many people from reaching the point where they have no alternative to sleeping on the street or in emergency shelters. The book is organized around four questions: Who becomes homeless? Why do people become homeless? How do we end homelessness? How do we prevent it? Based on a comprehensive look at relevant research, the authors show that we know how to end homelessness—if we devote the necessary resources to doing so. In the Midst of Plenty: Homelessness and What to Do About It is an excellent resource for professionals and decision-makers in the homeless services system, as well as for anyone who is interested in helping to end homelessness. It also can be used as a text in undergraduate or masters courses in public policy, sociology, psychology, social work, urban studies, or housing policy. “ The knowledgeable and thoughtful authors of this book—two brilliant women who know as much as anyone in the country about the nature of homelessness and its solutions — have done a great service by taking us on a journey through the history of homelessness, how our responses have changed, and how we can end it.” Nan Roman, President and CEO National Alliance to End Homelessness. “Shinn and Khadduri’s new book is a thorough yet concise examination of what we know about the nature and causes of homelessness, and the crucial lessons learned. This critically important work provides a roadmap to restoring basic housing and income security as viable policy options, in the face of our daunting inequality divide that otherwise threatens millions with destitution and homelessness .” Dennis Culhane, Dana and Andrew Stone Professor of Social Policy, University of Pennsylvania “Marybeth Shinn and Jill Khadduri have combined their significant expertise to create an essential guide about the history of modern homelessness and to offer a clear path forward to end this American tragedy. Their policy recommendations on ending homelessness are culled from the best about what we know works.” Barbara Poppe, Executive Director US Interagency Council on Homeless, 2009-2014.

One book dealing with the fundamentals of thermal and membrane desalination systems and discussing their economical as well as environmental aspects. With a growing population, climate change and greater water demand, desalination has increasingly become a part of the solution to regional water scarcity – seawater desalination capacity has roughly doubled in the past ten years. Desalination has also begun to receive more attention in academia, with research focusing on improving energy efficiency and system robustness and lowering capital costs. With this book, an introduction is given to the basics and fundamentals of desalination systems. Both, thermal and membrane desalination systems, are covered and discussed in view of energy, exergy, economic and environmental aspects. In the beginning, Introduction to Desalination: Systems, Processes and Environmental Impacts describes multi effect evaporation, vapor compression and multi-stage flashing. Further chapters deal with common membrane-based separations like reverse osmosis and membrane filtration, forward osmosis, diffusion dialysis and pervaporation as well as thermo-osmosis, electrodialysis and electrodeionization. Subsequently, hybrid systems are discussed, and the economic analysis of such systems and their environmental impact are highlighted. Each chapter contains theoretical and practical examples and concludes with questions and problems for self-study. * Needed: Desalination has become a part of the solution to regional water scarcity and an introductory book in this field is urgently needed. * Balanced Approach: Presents the fundamentals of thermal and membrane desalination systems. * Learning Material: Each chapter includes exercises for self-study and Instructors can find teaching material online. Introduction to Desalination: Systems, Processes and Environmental Impacts is an important resource for master's students in engineering sciences, lecturers in chemical and mechanical engineering, engineers, environmental chemists, as well as process engineers, engineering scientists in industry, and environmental consultants.

#1 bestselling author and radio host Glenn Beck exposes the real truth behind the roots of Islamic extremism in Muslim teachings in this sharply insightful handbook that debunks commonly held assumptions about Islam and the dream of a renewed caliphate.From the barbarians of ISIS to the terror tactics of Al-Qaeda and its offshoots, to the impending threat of a nuclear Iran, those motivated by extreme fundamentalist Islamic faith have the power to endanger and kill millions. The conflict with them will not end until we face the truth about those who find their inspiration and justification in the religion itself. Drawing on quotes from the Koran and the hadith, as well as from leaders of ISIS, Al Qaeda, and the Muslim Brotherhood, Glenn Beck seeks to expose the true origins of Islamic extremism as well as the deadly theological motivations behind these agencies of destruction. Using the same unique no-holds-barred style from his bestselling books Control and Conform, Glenn Beck offers straight facts and history about the fundamental beliefs that inspire so many to kill.

Remembering Diversity in East-Central European Cityscapes
and
Russia’s Annexation of Crimea I


Based on up-to-date field material, this issue focuses on the palimpsest-like environments of East-Central European borderland cities. The present shapes and contents of these urban environments derive from combinations of cultural continuities and political ruptures, present-day heritage industries and collective memories about the contentious past, expressive material forms and less conspicuous meaning-making activities of human actors; they evolve from perpetual tensions between the choices of the present and the weight of the past.
The contributors address a set of key questions: What is specific about the transnationalization of memory in these urban public spaces? What are the political rationales and ramifications of the different approaches taken to the legacies of perished population groups in different cities? How do these approaches relate to European dimensions of memory and the “European vector” of identity-making of the contemporary urban populations?

Over the relentless passage of time the nomads were forced to change their lifestyle – in that they had to settle down. The seemingly «hard rock» of customs and traditions, once resolutely observed, began to be eroded away. Whilst some traditions and customs of the Kyrgyz nomadic tribes were left behind in the far-flung past, to be reflected in legends and eposes, (epic poems), others prevail to the present day, either unchanged or slightly transformed. The purpose of this book is to uncover for readers the diversity of national ceremonies, customs and traditions, born in those ancient times when the Kyrgyz people were still a nomadic people.

Rafael Zornoza, obispo de C?diz y Ceuta, afirma en el Pr?logo de este libro que «la esperanza es el gran motor de la vida, unida profundamente a la ilusi?n». Esta es la raz?n de ser de esta obra: dejar claro que el hombre agarrado a Dios es capaz de salir adelante, de recuperar fuerzas, de realizar lo imposible.

Algo tan sencillo como sentarte en el cine con tu padre, o con tu hijo, se convierte en este libro en una reflexi?n divertida, ?ntima y conmovedora. Las pel?culas que no vi con mi padre son tambi?n las pel?culas que s? viste, y las que quieres ver con tu hijo y por extensi?n, con todos a los que quieres. Alberto Moreno salta de Indiana Jones a La guerra de las galaxias con humor y con inteligencia, y va construyendo el relato de las cosas importantes: la infancia, la amistad, el amor o la familia delante de una pantalla junto a la mejor compa??a posible. O junto a su ausencia. Porque la vida ense?a que somos tambi?n porque otros fueron; una amalgama de nostalgia y de memoria que nos sujeta cuando nos quedamos solos.El autor nos habla de nosotros mismos, con la naturalidad de una conversaci?n entre amigos sobre las escenas favoritas de Antes del atardecer o de El Padrino, esas im?genes de las pel?culas compartidas por una generaci?n cuyas emociones atrapan a todos por igual.Las p?ginas de Las pel?culas que no vi con mi padre son un homenaje a los afectos, al dolor de las p?rdidas irreparables y a c?mo pasado y presente se encadenan hasta forjar una biograf?a sentimental.

A quarter century after the formation of the Popular Front and a decade since joining the EU, processes of state- and nation-building in Latvia are still on-going. Issues such as citizenship, language policy, minority rights, democratic legitimacy, economic stability, and security all remain objects of vigorous public discussion. The current situation also reflects longer-standing debates on the relationship between state, nation, and sovereignty in Latvian society and polity. By examining different aspects of these relationships, this volume aims to reveal both key turning points and continuities in Latvia's development, thereby helping to inform current debates.

Reformers had high hopes that the end of communism in Eastern Europe and the former Soviet Union would lead to significant improvements in legal institutions and the role of law in public administration. However, the cumulative experience of 25 years of legal change since communism has been mixed, marked by achievements and failures, advances and moves backward. This book—written by a team of socio-legal scholars—probes the nuances of this process and starts the process to explain them. It covers developments across the former Soviet Union and Eastern Europe, and it deals with both legal institutions (courts and police) and accountability to law in public administration, including anti-corruption activities. In explaining their findings, the authors probe the impact of such factors as the type of political regime (democratic to authoritarian), international influences (such as the European Union), and culture (legal and political).
The volume’s contributors are: Mihaela Serban, Kim Lane Scheppele, Kriszta Kovacs, Alexei Trochev, Peter Solomon, Olga Semukhina, Maria Popova, Vincent Post. Marina Zaloznaya, William Reisinger, Vicki Hesli Claypool, Kaja Gadowska, and Elena Bogdanova.

Ein St?dtchen in Lothringen, ein Tal voller stillgelegter Eisenh?tten. Hier arbeitet Rolande Lepetit am Flie?band einer Daewoo-Fabrik, die sich mit EU-Zusch?ssen knapp ?ber Wasser h?lt. Doch die Unf?lle h?ufen sich, die Stimmung ist explosiv. Nach einem weiteren Zwischenfall geht die Belegschaft auf die Barrikaden. Pl?tzlich steht das Werk in Flammen! In Paris wird derweil ?ber die Privatisierung des Elektronik- und R?stungskonzerns Thomson entschieden. Als Matra-Daewoo gr?nes Licht f?r die ?bernahme erh?lt, holt die Konkurrenz zum Gegenschlag aus. Ein Krisenstab soll kompromittierendes Material ausgraben, die j?ngsten Ereignisse in der Daewoo-Fabrik k?nnten sich eignen. Also schickt man Charles Montoya nach Lothringen, einen Privatdetektiv, der mit allen Wassern gewaschen ist … Erpressung, Manipulation, Mord – die Gegner in diesem Mega-Monopoly schrecken vor nichts zur?ck. Lebendige Miniaturen von kleinen Leuten und skrupellosen Machern verbinden sich zu einem handfesten Wirtschaftsthriller, dessen realen Hintergrund die Machenschaften um den Verkauf des franz?sischen Staatskonzerns Thomson bilden.
