Liu Guitang (1892-1943)

Banditentum war eine der massgeblichen historischen Triebkrafte der chinesischen Republikzeit (1911-1949). Es war ein pandemisches Phanomen, und die Ubergange zum jene Zeit pragenden Kriegsherrenmilieu waren fliessend. Liu Guitang, auch "Liu Schwarze Sieben" genannt, war einer der beruchtigtsten Banditen Nordchinas. Der ehemals einfache Ziegenhirte hatte innerhalb von nur 15 Jahren in seiner Heimatprovinz Shandong eine so grosse Macht erlangt, dass selbst Generale es vorzogen, mit ihm zu verhandeln, anstatt gegen ihn zu kampfen. Er stieg zum Militarfuhrer verschiedener Kriegsherren und der Zentralarmee Jiang Kaisheks auf, marodierte mit seinen Mannern kreuz und quer durch Nordchina und die I...

An interesting volume presenting the papers collected for the Festschrift "Paradoxes in Modern Geology" in honor of Professor Ken Jinghwa Hsu on the occasion of his 70th birthday.Paradox, as defined in a dictionary, is a statement contrary to accepted opinion. That a broad discussion of paradoxes is fruitful for the advancement of science in general, and geosciences in particular, has been amply demonstrated by Professor Hsu throughout his distinguished career. Not only has he propelled the geoscience community forward with his controversial statements, a number of his former students, who are currently in key positions at universities and in industry, are influencing in a similar open minded way the present day thinking. The wide scope this reasoning encompasses is demonstrated by the contributions to this book, delineating paradoxes and problems in the fields of tectonics, basic and applied geosciences, petrology, paleoceanography, paleoclimatology and paleogeography, kinematics and modelling.

Global Value Chains and Production Networks

Global Value Chains and Production Networks: Case Studies of Siemens and Huawei presents theories and frameworks that facilitate the evolution of GPN studies, from macro perspectives based on territory and industry to the use of micro (firm-level) data. The book explores these theories and frameworks through detailed case studies of two major corporations, Siemens and Huawei. With the GPN/GVC structure of Chinese firms not well known outside China, despite the growing importance of Chinese firms in the global economy, this guide plays a pivotal role in facilitating the use of data that promise to unlock economic cooperation and value. - Emphasizes micro-data analytical models and their methodological underpinnings - Illustrates how these data illuminate the economic structures of two comparable GPNs within highly divergent institutional contexts - Suggests how companies can cooperate with foreign partners to enhance their global management capacity and reshape their advantages in international competition
