Socialist Unemployment
In the first political analysis of unemployment in a socialist country, Susan Woodward argues that the bloody conflicts that are destroying Yugoslavia stem not so much from ancient ethnic hatreds as from the political and social divisions created by a failed socialist program to prevent capitalist joblessness. Under Communism the concept of socialist unemployment was considered an oxymoron; when it appeared in postwar Yugoslavia, it was dismissed as illusory or as a transitory consequence of Yugoslavia's unorthodox experiments with worker-managed firms. In Woodward's view, however, it was only a matter of time before countries in the former Soviet bloc caught up with Yugoslavia, confronting ...
Growth and Mineral Nutrition of Field Crops
By the year 2050, the world's population is expected to reach nine billion. To feed and sustain this projected population, world food production must increase by at least 50 percent on much of the same land that we farm today. To meet this staggering challenge, scientists must develop the technology required to achieve an "evergreen" revolution-one
Post-Yugoslav Cinema
Drawing primarily on selected filmic texts from former-Yugoslavia, the book examines key social and political events that triggered the Yugoslav wars in the 1990s. Yugoslav politics and society are set within the broader artistic and cinematic strategies that helped stabilise post-Yugoslav territories strategies that were part of the national desire of looking forward to a time of 'perpetual peace' and its subsequent cosmopolitan norms. It argues that filmic texts demonstrate the degree to which nationalism was at the heart of the violent disintegration of Yugoslavia. Yet, the concern of the argument is not simply to offer a filmic critique but to develop an alternative to nationalism; namely, a theoretical framework through which cosmopolitan humanism is at the forefront of addressing former Yugoslavia's political wounds.

Can the European Union Force its Member States to Introduce the Euro?
Der Verfasser untersucht die – im Verhältnis zu Aktualität und Praxisrelevanz – wenig erforschte Frage, ob die Euroeinführung für alte und neue Mitgliedstaaten mit dem EU-Beitritt verpflichtend wird. Er analysiert hierzu zunächst, ob die Euroeinführung im Prinzip – zunächst unter bewusster Ausblendung des problematischen Wechselkurskonvergenzkriteriums – einen verpflichtenden Charakter hat. Nach Bejahung dieser Frage wendet er sich dem Wechselkurskonvergenzkriterium zu und stellt fest, dass die formelle WKM II-Teilnahme ein notwendiges, aber nicht hinreichendes Kriterium zur Erfüllung dieses Konvergenzkriteriums ist. Da die WKM II-Teilnahme aber ihrerseits freiwillig ausgestaltet ist, macht dies im Ergebnis auch die Euroeinführung insgesamt freiwillig. Ein Mitgliedstaat kann die Euroeinführung daher wie Schweden einfach umgehen, indem er dem WKM II nicht beitritt. Der Autor zeigt immer wieder auf, wie verschiedene Gruppen von EU-Mitgliedstaaten hinsichtlich der Euro-Einführung in der Vergangenheit behandelt wurden.
