While the Western perception of "the Orient" has become a well-worn topic in the field of Asian and Middle Eastern studies, the way in which the Arab world has come to perceive the West has been largely neglected. Occidentalisms in the Arab World not only presents a comprehensive overview and pointed commentary on recent works in the emerging field of Occidentalist studies, but also provides new insight on the interplay between ideology and image in the formulation of "the West." Robbert Woltering provides an in-depth look at the ways in which multiple representations and occidentalisms of the West have developed in Egypt since the end of the Cold War. Through the rigorous analysis of political speeches, popular literature, and recurrent images, Woltering examines the ideological foundations that continue to shape the image of the Occident in the twenty-first century. Occidentalisms in the Arab World provides an unparalleled and original commentary on an emerging field at the intersection of Middle East Studies, Political Science, and Media Studies.
Menschen nehmen sich immer wieder vor ihr Leben zum Positiven zu verändern. In der Praxis gibt es zahlreiche Dienstleister, die Angebote zur Zielerreichung bereitstellen. Kultureinrichtungen sorgen für Bildung und Sportanlagenbetreiber helfen den Menschen körperlich in Form zu kommen. Viele dieser Dienstleistungen werden in Pauschaltarifen angeboten. In Bezug auf die Konsumentenrente ist die Wahl eines solchen Tarifs häufig nicht optimal. Am Beispiel eines Entscheidungsexperiments und den Transaktionsdaten eines Fitnessstudios analysiert Thomas Robbert den Einfluss der Tarifwahl auf nachgelagerte Nutzungsprozesse. Dabei zeigt er, dass auch der Wille sich ökonomisch an ein Verhalten zu binden (Precommitment) die Wahl eines Pauschaltarifs begünstigen kann. Aus dieser Erkenntnis leitet der Autor Konsequenzen für die Tarifgestaltung ab. ?

Many economists now accept that informal institutions and culture play a crucial role in economic outcomes. Driven by the work of economists like Nobel laureates Douglass North and Gary Becker, there is an important body of work that invokes cultural and institutional factors to build a more comprehensive and realistic theory of economic behavior. This book provides a comprehensive overview of research in this area, sketching the main premises and challenges faced by the field. The first part introduces and explains the various theoretical approaches to studying culture in economics, going back to Smith and Weber, and addresses the methodological issues that need to be considered when including culture in economics. The second part of the book then provides readers with a series of examples that show how the cultural approach can be used to explain economic phenomena in four different areas: entrepreneurship, trust, international business and comparative corporate governance.

Processes for determining U.S. Air Force manpower requirements vary across and within the workforces. The primary focus of this report is on quantitative manpower requirements processes and the extent to which they are validated, coordinated, and consistent. For wartime or deployment needs, this report seeks to determine if a common-sight picture of demands is available, particularly for non-operational, non-maintenance activities referred to as agile combat support. It also explores the qualitative side of personnel requirements.
