Different nations have different national intelligence cultures, relying on different ideas of intelligence, perceiving and practicing intelligence in different ways. Written by a former senior intelligence officer, this book is the first study dedicated to Israeli intelligence culture and the way it reflects Israeli strategic culture. Relying on more than 30 elite interviews with acting and former Israeli practitioners, the book highlights the Israeli aversion to intelligence theory and scientific methods, as well as to the structured m...
The Power of Diversity in the Armed Forces
While countries throughout the world rely on immigrants to support their populations and economies, access to the military is limited, denied to those who have not yet acquired citizenship. Precluding immigrants from serving in their host country’s armed forces is an issue of moral equity and operational effectiveness. Allowing immigrants to enlist ensures that the military represents the population it serves and encourages inclusivity and cultural change within the institution, while also creating a more effective military force. The Power of Diversity in the Armed Forces investigates how different countries approach the inclusion or exclusion of immigrants in their armed forces and offers immigrant military participation as a pathway to citizenship and a way to foster greater societal integration and achieve a more equitable, diverse, and inclusive military. By surveying international perspectives on immigrant and non-citizen military participation in twelve countries, The Power of Diversity in the Armed Forces introduces and examines a new way to unlock the power of diversity in military organizations globally.

Praxis des Bauprozessmanagements
Das Buch behandelt den Komplex des Bauprozessmanagements aus baupraktischer Sicht und zeigt, wie durch Prozessoptimierung, Industrialisierung und Anwendung neuer Technologien (Sensortechnik, digitale Kommunikation, Echtzeitsteuerung etc.) die Wirtschaftlichkeit von Bauprojekten erheblich gesteigert werden kann. Ausgewiesene Experten und namhafte Unternehmen berichten über Einführung und Umsetzung des Prozessmanagements im Bauwesen und in der Immobilienwirtschaft. In den einzelnen Beiträgen wird die Anwendung des prozessorientierten Ansatzes am Beispiel eines Baukonzerns beschrieben. Ferner werden die Möglichkeiten der Übertragung der Lean-Production-Konzepte aus der stationären Industrie in die Bauindustrie (Lean Construction) diskutiert. Einen besonderen Schwerpunkt bildet das Thema der Anwendung polysensoraler Systeme zur Echtzeitsteuerung von Bauprojekten. In einem weiteren Abschnitt wird gezeigt, wie die Forderung nach Nachhaltigkeit an Immobilienentwicklungs- und -verwaltungsprozesse erfüllt werden kann. So werden aus verschiedenen Perspektiven die Potenziale des Bauprozessmanagements für die zuverlässige Steuerung von Terminen, Kosten und Qualität aufgezeigt.

Toward a New Deal in Baltimore
Jo Ann Argersinger's innovative analysis of the New Deal years in Baltimore establishes the significance of citizen participation and community organization in shaping the welfare programs of the Great Depression. Baltimore, a border city divided by race and openly hostile to unions, the unemployed, and working women, is a particularly valuable locus for gauging the impact of the New Deal. This book examines the interaction of federal, state, and local policies, and documents the partial efforts of the New Deal to reach out to new constituencies. By unraveling the complex connections between government intervention and citizen action, Argersinger offers new insights into the real meaning of ...
