Taekwondo Studies: Advanced Theory and Practice
Taekwondo is unlike any other martial art and it deserves some special attention because of its importance as a sport with a unique history and influence. This anthology, as part of our projects to provide stellar articles from the Journal of Asian Martial Arts, provides high quality materials about taekwondo you will not find elsewhere. Topics include fascets of taekwondo history, practice, competition, health, education, character, techniques, and sport/athletics. You’ll find the notes, bibliographies, illustrations, and index are also valuable. We have been very fortunate to include the writings of Dr. Willy Pieter, a pioneer in the scientific study of taekwondo. Other articles in this ...
The Power of Energy Justice & the Social Contract
This open access book focuses on the energy sector and will make a significant contribution to its continued evolution. For many years, the energy sector has been missing a raison d’etre and now finally there are increased calls for that to be justice. Hence, this book will develop the concept of energy justice and how it needs to be formalised in a new ‘social contract’ with all stakeholders in society. The focus will be on improving legal systems at local, national and international levels while ensuring that justice is a core issue within energy law, the legal system and more broadly in society.
Trends and Developments in Corporate Governance
The 2003 Special Issue of the Comparative Law Yearbook of International Business deals with issues relating to Corporate Governance. Following a series of scandals involving reporting by public companies in the United States, there has been an increase in the number of measures dealing with, among other things, the liability of directors and managers when submitting company financial returns. The first and most well-known piece of legislation to be introduced was, of course, the United States Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act covers matters including the establishment of audit committees, disclosure committees, and codes of ethics, with an emphasis upon the disclosure of inf...

The Best Fight: A Memoir of a Martial Art Practitioner, Publisher, and Author
A needle may draw a thread through printed pages to bind a book. In this little memoir, I feel like a needle that drew a common thread though a segment of martial art history. This book details three interrelated activities: (1) martial art studies, (2) involvement as founder of Via Media Publishing, producing a quarterly journal and books, and (3) teaching martial arts. Publishers, writers, researchers and serious martial art practitioners will benefit with the detailed overview of Via Media and its publications. Via Media produced the Journal of Asian Martial Arts, known for its high academic and aesthetic standards. Its contents reflect the history of two decades and provides rich informa...
Publizisierung öffentlicher Aufgaben
Die Privatisierungseuphorie der vergangenen Jahrzehnte ist heute weitgehend verflogen. Nicht nur die Finanz- und Wirtschaftskrise hat das Vertrauen in die Leistungsfähigkeit der Märkte erschüttert. Auch haben bei weitem nicht alle Privatisierungsmaßnahmen die in sie gesetzten Erwartungen erfüllt. Daher war schon vor vielen Jahren eine Trendwende weg von der Privatisierung und hin zu dem gegenläufigen Prozess der Rekommunalisierung zu beobachten. Die Rückkehr zum Öffentlichen beschränkt sich aber nicht auf den kommunalen Bereich, sondern ist längst auch auf Landes-, Bundes-, EU- und sogar globaler Ebene zu beobachten. Ebenenübergreifend lässt sich dieser Trend zu Rekommunalisierun...
