Mysteriöse Orte. Verlassen liegen sie da. Niemand hat sie seit Jahren betreten. Viele dieser alten Gebäude, Freizeitparks oder Bohrinseln sind bereits verfallen oder verrostet. Warum kümmert sich niemand mehr darum? Warum werden mache dieser Orte sogar gemieden? Was ist dort geschehen? Die Wahrheit, die Geschichten, die sich hinter diesen verlassenen Orten verbergen, haben wir in dieser Anthologie für Sie zusammengetragen und so geordnet, dass sich der Gruselfaktor von Geschichte zu Geschichte steigert.
From Sean Connery to Roy Rogers, from comedy to political satire, films that include espionage as a plot device run the gamut of actors and styles. More than just "spy movies," espionage films have evolved over the history of cinema and American culture, from stereotypical foreign spy themes, to patriotic star features, to the Cold War plotlines of the sixties, and most recently to the sexy, slick films of the nineties. This filmography comprehensively catalogs movies involving elements of espionage. Each entry includes release date, running time, alternate titles, cast and crew, a brief synopsis, and commentary. An introduction analyzes the development of these films and their reflection of the changing culture that spawned them.
Zwei Fragen bilden den Kern dieses Buches. Welche Bildungsinhalte und welche Kompetenzen bietet Unterricht einer lebensweltbezogenen Pädagogik, um sich in einer technisierten und globalisierten Welt weitestgehend selbstständig orientieren zu können? Und wie lassen sich (sonder-)pädagogische Konzepte für das Leben von morgen bestimmen? Der Band hat dabei vor allem den einzelnen Schüler mit seiner Zugangsweise zum Lernen im Blick. Die fachlich begründeten Unterrichtskonzepte für Kinder und Jugendliche mit Beeinträchtigung der geistigen Entwicklung beinhalten fachorientierte und überfachliche Bildungskonzepte aus der Mathematik, der Kunst, der Technik, der Verbraucherbildung, dem globalen Lernen, der digitalen Bildung, der persönlichen Lebensstilplanung und dem elementaren Englischunterricht.
Protecting and promoting health is inherently a political endeavor that requires a sophisticated understanding of the distribution and use of power. Yet while the global nature of health is widely recognized, its political nature is less well understood. In recent decades, the interdisciplinary field of global health politics has emerged to demonstrate the interconnections of health and core political topics, including foreign and security policy, trade, economics, and development. Today a growing body of scholarship examines how the global health landscape has both shaped and been shaped by political actors and structures. The Oxford Handbook of Global Health Politics provides an authoritat...
It could be said that the career of Canadian-born film director Allan Dwan (1885-1981) began at the dawn of the American motion picture industry. Originally a scriptwriter, Dwan became a director purely by accident. Even so, his creativity and problem-solving skills propelled him to the top of his profession. He achieved success with numerous silent film performers, most spectacularly with Douglas Fairbanks Sr. and Gloria Swanson, and later with such legendary stars as Shirley Temple and John Wayne. Though his star waned in the sound era, Dwan managed to survive through pluck and ingenuity. Considering himself better off without the fame he enjoyed during the silent era, he went on to do some of his best work for second-echelon studios (notably Republic Pictures' Sands of Iwo Jima) and such independent producers as Edward Small. Along the way, Dwan also found personal happiness in an unconventional manner. Rich in detail with two columns of text in each of its nearly 400 pages, and with more than 150 photographs, this book presents a thorough examination of Allan Dwan and separates myth from truth in his life and films.
