Organizing Muslims and Integrating Islam in Germany
Kerstin Rosenow-Williams analyzes the challenges faced by Islamic organizations in Germany since the beginning of the 21st century, providing original empirical insights based on a sociological research perspective.
The Lingen Equilibrium Model
Equilibria protect against crisis. All disciplines of sciences have the objective to create equilibria. But economics are not successful in this point. Here a simple equilibrium model based on a wage-price-rule is demonstrated. Economics are able to create economic equilibria by using this rule. But in economic systems there are a lot of rules, especially in accounting, which make economic equilibria impossible. These rules must be changed. If it is possible to create economic equilibria, the side-effect is the realization of economic sustainability.

Sustainability Research 2019
Seitdem die Vereinten Nationen die Verwirklichung eines weltweiten nachhaltigen Entwicklungsprozesses propagiert haben, hat sich eine umfangreiche Nachhaltigkeitsforschung (Sustainability Research) herausgebildet. Es wird untersucht, wie die drei Komponenten der Nachhaltigkeit, die soziale, die ökologische und die ökonomische Nachhaltigkeit, umgesetzt werden können. Aus der Vielzahl der Forschungsbeiträge zum Thema Nachhaltigkeit wird im vorliegenden Band eine Auswahl präsentiert, die im Einflussbereich der Herausgeber der Schriftenreihe "Lingener Studien zu Management und Technik" bis zum Jahr 2019 entstand.
Electric Energy Storage Systems
The book describes methods of modeling, planning and implementing electric energy storage systems. Energy storage becomes an important issue when more and more electric power is generated by wind mills and photovoltaics systems, because green energy is more volatile. So energy storage is necessary to guarantee safe and secure electric energy supply.Market and power system oriented operations of electric energy storage require different planning methods and different algorithms for searching the optimal solution. These methods are described in detail for energy storage implementations in generation, transmission and distribution levels. Economic aspects are considered.For many years, the authors have been developing smart grid solutions as well as a methology of modeling and planning electric energy storage usage. The aim has been to increase the flexibility of the power system heading for an energy system which is completely generated by green energy.
Excitatory Amino Acid Receptors
Designed to reflect the growing awareness of the chemical aspects of excitatory amino acids, this text uses computer-based methods and X-ray techniques to depict and analyze molecules and structure-activity relationships. The book incorporates stereochemical principles into all analyses.
Sector Coupling - Energy-Sustainable Economy of the Future
The core of the book is the presentation of a systematic, continuous and logical chain into the coupled total energy system (GES) of the future, which will lead to the fully sustainable use of renewable energies. Thus, unified models are proposed that are applicable to the subsystems/sectors throughout and allow the optimization of the entire GES. Appropriate algorithms and approaches are illustrated with numerous examples. This is embedded in the context of efforts to fully integrate energy generated from renewable sources into the GES. The overarching role of IT systems for secure operations has been emphasized in the book. The relevance of the correct mapping of technologies to use cases is elaborated and necessary steps derived from this are considered technically and organizationally (standardization). Special attention is paid to the didactic presentation of the material in order to present this new, difficult and complex problem "as simple as possible, but not simpler" [according to Einstein].
Migration Citizenship Labour
Lara Jüssen takes the case of Latin American household and construction workers in Madrid to show how ir/regular labour migrants make citizenship available for themselves through emplacements, embodiments and enactments of citizenship. After describing the sociopolitical context of crisis and resistance in Spain, citizenship is anthropologized in order to approach it through the workplace: the private household and the construction site. Based on empirical results from interviews, it is analyzed how citizenship is emplaced through ego-centered networks and assemblages that situate the migrants’ social belonging; how it is embodied through carving out of identities of the migrant workers, intersectionality of gender, ethnicity, and class, affects that imprint workers’ bodies, and experiences of violence at the workplace; then citizenships’ enactment is scrutinized through workers’ empowerment for rights, individually at the workplace and collectively through demonstrations and political theater performance in urban public space.
Muslim Community Organizations in the West
The book focusses on the historical emergence and contemporary challenges of Muslim community organizations and their struggle for recognition as ordinary voices in multiethnic and multi-religious civil societies of Western democracies. It offers a range of different perspectives on how Muslim communities position themselves and navigate the social and political landscape shaped by, on the one hand, normalization of ethno-religious diversity and, on the other, ongoing misrecognition and essentialisation of Muslims in the West. The contributions from internationally acclaimed scholars as well as emerging researchers from Canada, the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Switzerland and Australia shine new light on both country-specific similarities and divergences.
Antikriegsökonomie
Das Militär nutzt Instrumente der Ökonomie, um effektive und effiziente Kriege zu führen. Im vorliegenden Band werden die Instrumente der Ökonomie hingegen eingesetzt, um die Ineffizienz und Ineffektivität von Kriegen zu zeigen. Die für militärische Zwecke herangezogenen Ressourcen fehlen, um den Wohlstand für die Weltbevölkerung und die Umweltqualität zu steigern. Kriege sollten daher verhindert werden. Es ist erstaunlich, dass dem Menschen, einem denkenden Lebewesen, trotz knapper Ressourcen, stark geschädigter Umwelt, trotz der Forderungen der Menschenrechte und der Vorgaben der Charta der Vereinten Nationen, keine besseren Konfliktlösungen einfallen als Kriege.
