While many have explored the law surrounding the rights of indigenous peoples through an examination of all relevant instruments and institutions, this book is based on the premise that one can obtain an in depth knowledge of the indigenous rights regime by simply knowing the answer to two questions: What is meant by 'peoples' and 'equality' under international law? From Terra Nullius to International Legal Subjects and Possessors of Land - Indigenous Peoples' Status in the International Legal System offers a new and profound insight into the international indigenous rights discourse. This volume articulates that the understanding of 'peoples' is paramount to the question of whether indigeno...

Lisa-Marleen Heid widmet sich der anspruchsvollen kognitiven Tätigkeit des Schätzens und untersucht, welche Strategien Viertklässlerinnen und Viertklässler nutzen, um unterschiedliche Aufgaben zum Schätzen von Längen und Fassungsvermögen zu lösen. Dazu diskutiert sie aufgaben- und personenspezifische Einflussfaktoren auf die Strategiewahl, überprüft diese quantitativ und zeigt Zusammenhänge zur Schätzgenauigkeit auf. Die empirische Studie liefert außerdem Erkenntnisse über die spezifischen Merkmale guter Schätzerinnen und Schätzer sowie Schwierigkeiten der Schülerinnen und Schüler, mentale Vergleichsprozesse durchzuführen.
Christian Rütten untersucht in seiner Studie, welche Vorstellungen Grundschulkinder bzgl. negativer Zahlen vor deren unterrichtlicher Thematisierung mitbringen und in welcher Beziehung diese zu fachlichen Sichtweisen wie Zahlengeraden- oder Äquivalenzklassenmodellen stehen. Als Forschungsrahmen dient das Modell der didaktischen Rekonstruktion mit den zentralen Untersuchungsaufgaben: fachliche Klärung, Erfassen der Lernerperspektive und didaktische Strukturierung. Zur Erfassung der Lernerperspektive beleuchtet der Autor psychologische und mathematikdidaktische Perspektiven und verortet die Lernerperspektive in der kognitiven Schichtenstruktur. Besondere Bedeutung misst er hierbei Metaphern als kognitiven Strukturen bei und entwickelt dementsprechend eine rekonstruktive Metaphernanalyse als Auswertungsmethode. Eine empirische Untersuchung mit über 500 Grundschulkindern zeigt ein breites Spektrum an vorunterrichtlichen Vorstellungen bzgl. negativer Zahlen und eröffnet Perspektiven für unterrichtliche Gestaltung und weitere Forschungskontexte.

International organizations have become major players on the international scene, whose acts and activities affect individuals, companies and states. Damage to interests or violation of rights sometimes occur (such as during peacekeeping operations, for example). Karel Wellens considers what remedies are available to potential claimants such as private contractors, staff members or, indeed, anyone suffering damage as a result of their actions. Can they turn to an Ombudsman or national courts, or do they have to rely on support by their own state? Are the remedies provided by international organizations adequate? Wellens' conclusions include suggestions for alternative remedial options in the future.
Translation Studies already face new tasks in order to take account of and to discuss the changing translation environment, in order to seek new approaches and tools for description, analysis and teaching activities. This volume of selected papers of the conference Bridging Languages and Cultures brings together current viewpoints in Translation Studies, Linguistics, and Intercultural Communication; it provides both specific focus on certain aspects and developments and a more general overview of research landscape. Distinguished authors discuss translation of LSP texts, lexicological and lexicographic modules of bridging history and methodology of Translation Studies, aesthetic and interactional aspects of translation, and intercultural phenomena in the context of translation.
Just Security in an Undergoverned World examines how humankind can manage global problems to achieve both security and justice in an age of antithesis. Global connectivity is increasing, visibly and invisibly-in trade, finance, culture, and information-helping to spur economic growth, technological advance, and greater understanding and freedom, but global disconnects are growing as well. Ubiquitous electronics rely on high-value minerals scraped from the earth by miners kept poor by corruption and war. People abandon burning states for the often indifferent welcome of wealthier lands whose people, in turn, draw into themselves. Humanity's very success, underwritten in large part by lighting...
