Aquanauts â?? Expedition to the Siljan Ring
Completely unexpected, seven trunks and a couple of wooden bins arrive to the Ontological Museum in Stockholm. The anonymous donation contains notes and diaries, photographic negatives on glass plates, a peculiar cranium and dried in traces of scent. The diaries turn out to be written by Beata Gardelius, palaeontologist at the Swedish Museum of Natural History. The photographs and the drawings are done by Inga-Lisa Blomgren, assistant at the Institute of Geology in Uppsala. The research material is nothing than remarkable. In September 1897, Beata Gardelius and Inga-Lisa Blomgren disappear during the expedition to the Siljan Ring. The faith of the two women has until now remained unknown.

A beautifully illustrated guide from a Celtic Wiccan High Priestess to celebrating the Wiccan way, from Halloween to handfastings, as well as everyday rituals to enhance all areas of your life. The Wiccan calendar is marked by significant festivals, called sabbats. The most famous is Halloween, also known as Samhain, but you will be familiar with others, too, such as the Summer and Winter Solstices. Wiccans celebrate these sabbats with rituals, crafts, and food and drink, and in this book, Silja reveals how you can bring some of that magic into your life, even if working as a solitary witch. She also details other special days throughout the year, such as August 23, the Roman festival of Vulcanalia, which is celebrated with bonfires. Discover, too, how Wiccans celebrate personal rites of passage, such as the naming of a baby and a couple committing to each other in a Wiccan wedding, known as a handfasting. Finally, Silja explains how to write your own daily, weekly, or monthly rituals to bring you peace and happiness. Lavishly illustrated throughout, this is your essential guide to all your Wiccan celebrations.
The Doctrine of Res Judicata Before International Commercial Arbitral Tribunals
Today, international commercial disputes regularly involve multiple parties, contracts, and issues. As a result, the number of disputes that are tried in two or more different forums has increased, giving rise to difficult issues regarding the conclusive and preclusive effects of prior judgments or awards. As a result, the doctrine of res judicata , which requires that a final decision by a court or arbitral tribunal be conclusive and that it should not be re-litigated, is of increasing significance. Dr Silja Schaffstein provides the first practical and comprehensive guidelines for matters of res judicata for international commercial arbitration practitioners. Structured in two parts, part one examines the doctrine of res judicata in domestic and international litigation, while part two determines whether and how the res judicata doctrine may be applied by international commercial arbitral tribunals. Dr Schaffstein identifies situations in which res judicata issues are likely to arise before international commercial arbitral tribunals and provides actionable solutions. The book determines the key features of the doctrine of res judicata in the laws of England, the United States, France, and Switzerland, as representative of the common law system on the one hand and the civil law system on the other hand. The book also presents the doctrine of res judicata in the context of private international law, alongside its crucial aspects and application in public international law by international courts and tribunals. The aim of the work is to demonstrate how transnational principles of res judicata should be elaborated for international commercial arbitral tribunals. The analysis looks at how the doctrine should be applied by international commercial arbitral tribunals in their relations with other arbitral tribunals or state courts, and within the arbitral proceedings pending before them. The work sets out the transnational principles in the form of guidelines for international arbitrators.
The Politics of Welfare State Reform in Continental Europe

The Politics of Welfare State Reform in Continental Europe

Silja Häusermann

Cambridge University Press

pokkari
This book challenges existing theories of welfare state change by analyzing pension reforms in France, Germany, and Switzerland between 1970 and 2004. It explains why all three countries were able to adopt far-reaching reforms, adapting their pension regimes to both financial austerity and new social risks. In a radical departure from the neo-institutionalist emphasis on policy stability, the book argues that socio-structural change has led to a multidimensional pension reform agenda. A variety of cross-cutting lines of political conflict, emerging from the transition to a post-industrial economy, allowed governments to engage in strategies of political exchange and coalition-building, fostering broad cross-class coalitions in support of major reform packages. Methodologically, the book proposes a novel strategy to analyze lines of conflict, configurations of political actors, and coalitional dynamics over time. This strategy combines quantitative analyses of actor configurations based on coded policy positions with in-depth case studies.

More and more women,mothers, grandmothers, wives, daughters, and sisters,are doing hard prison time all across the United States. Many of them are facing the prospect of years, decades, even lifetimes behind bars. Oddly, there's been little public discussion about the dramatic increase of women in the prison system. What exactly is happening here, and why?The answers are in Women Behind Bars , in which investigative journalist Silja Talvi sheds light on why American girls and women are being locked up at such unprecedented rates. Talvi travels across the country to weave together interviews with inmates, correctional officers, and administrators, providing readers with a glance at the impact incarceration has on our society. With a combination of compassion and critical analysis, Talvi delivers a timely, in-depth analysis of a growing and extremely complicated issue.
The Decision Trap

The Decision Trap

Silja Samerski

Imprint Academic

The Decision Trap questions a dogma of our time: the assumption that genetic education empowers citizens and increases their autonomy. It argues that professional instructions about genes, genetic risks, and genetic test options convey a genetic worldview which destroys self-confidence and makes clients dependent on genetic experts and technologies. Part one of the book introduces the reader to the idea of genetic education. It clarifies the notion of the "gene" as it is commonly understood, and shows that, scientifically, the concept of genes as definable, causal agents is outdated. Part two of the book investigates the hidden curriculum of genetic education, using genetic counselling as a prime example. Genetic counselling is a professional service that aims to enable clients to make autonomous decisions about genetic test options and cope with the results.

Natural Computing for Simulation-Based Optimization and Beyond

Natural Computing for Simulation-Based Optimization and Beyond

This SpringerBrief bridges the gap between the areas of simulation studies on the one hand, and optimization with natural computing on the other. Since natural computing methods have been applied with great success in several application areas, a review concerning potential benefits and pitfalls for simulation studies is merited. The brief presents such an overview and combines it with an introduction to natural computing and selected major approaches, as well as with a concise treatment of general simulation-based optimization. As such, it is the first review which covers both the methodological background and recent application cases. The brief is intended to serve two purposes: First, it can be used to gain more information concerning natural computing, its major dialects, and their usage for simulation studies. It also covers the areas of multi-objective optimization and neuroevolution. While the latter is only seldom mentioned in connection withsimulation studies, it is a powerful potential technique. Second, the reader is provided with an overview of several areas of simulation-based optimization which range from logistic problems to engineering tasks. Additionally, the brief focuses on the usage of surrogate and meta-models. The brief presents recent application examples.

The Basho of Economics

The Basho of Economics

Silja Graupe

De Gruyter
2007
sidottu
In the parlance of modern Japanese philosophy, the term Basho denotes a field of experience underlying all conceptions of reality, while remaining itself conceptually ungraspable. The Basho of Economics, then, refers to the economy’s hidden experiential ground, which has never been explicitly scrutinized, as such, by mainstream economics. We uncover this ground by discerning the tacit presuppositions of classical and neo-classical theories from the perspective of modern Japanese philosophy. In particular, we draw attention to the traditional atomist assumptions implicit in their equilibrium-centered models. By breaking through these assumptions, we reconstruct the economy as a functional and relational world of habitual and creative activity outside of the scope of mechanical laws.

Der interkulturelle Dialog mit der japanischen Philosophie erhellt die verborgenen, unreflektierten Denkgewohnheiten der Wirtschaftswissenschaften. Die Andersartigkeit japanischen Denkens macht den impliziten methodologischen Grundrahmen der Ökonomie sichtbar, verweist kritisch auf Widersprüche sowie Erklärungslücken und zeigt Alternativen auf.

Ausgehend von der Analyse der schriftstellerischen Laufbahnen von fünf zwischen 1970 und 1985 geborenen lateinamerikanischen Schriftsteller*innen sowie ihren internationalen Debüts, stellt das Buch einen Anforderungskatalog auf, den lateinamerikanische Autor*innen gegenwärtig zu erfüllen haben, wenn sie als Weltautor*innen gelten möchten. Dabei rückt es die Schriftsteller*innen, die bisher in den akademischen Debatten um das Konzept Weltliteratur nur eine untergeordnete Rollen spielten, in den Mittelpunkt und untersucht ihre intra- wie auch extraliterarischen Autorbilder und -figuren auf etwaige Weltliterarizität. Es gibt Auskunft darüber, welche Faktoren die Übersetzung, Zirkulation und Rezeption, d.h. die Selektion oder Exklusion als Weltautor*in beeinflussen. Besonders an dem Buch ist die Auseinandersetzung mit lateinamerikanischer Gegenwartsliteratur, wodurch betont wird, dass Weltliteratur (auch) im Hier und Jetzt entsteht. Das Buch richtet sich an Weltliteraturforscher*innen, Lateinamerikanist*innen, Verleger*innen, Literaturkritiker*innen sowie Lateinamerika und Weltliteratur interessierte Leser*innen.

Recht, Moral und Ethik

Mohr Siebeck

Gerade in Gesellschaften und Ordnungen, für die bestimmte Grade der Pluralität faktisch bestehen und normativ anerkannt sind, muss die Erörterung gemeinsamer Werte erfolgen, damit auf deren Basis Normsetzung und Normanwendung erfolgen können. Silja Vöneky zeigt, unter welchen Voraussetzungen Ethikgremien durch ihre Stellungnahmen in gerechtfertigter Weise einen Korridor ethischer Normsetzung aufzeigen können, der von Rechtsetzungs- und Entscheidungsorganen genutzt werden kann. Im Mittelpunkt ihrer Argumentation steht dabei das Verständnis der Demokratie der Bundesrepublik Deutschland als materiell-ethische. Nur solange und soweit die Gremien ihre Erörterungen in den Grenzen und auf der Grundlage der rechtlich maßgeblichen Prinzipien führen, kann verhindert werden, dass deren Ethisierung des Diskurses den vorrangig menschenrechtlich geprägten Rechtsdiskurs unzulässig untergräbt.
