New Approaches to CSR, Sustainability and Accountability, Volume III
This book continues the discussion in the first two volumes on the challenges that organizations face in order to implement sustainability, ethics, and effective corporate governance, all of which are important elements of “standing out” from other companies. Examining the background of the New European Consensus on development with the new guiding motto ‘Our World, Our Dignity, Our Future,’ the authors explore how this new legislation on sustainability issues around the world is forcing companies to deal directly with sustainability issues. The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development (2030 Agenda), adopted by the United Nations in September 2015, is the international community’s r...
Das Informationsumfeld europäischer kapitalmarktorientierter Versicherungsunternehmen
Kapitalmarktorientierte Versicherungsunternehmen sind mit einer hohen Unsicherheit und Informationsasymmetrie sowohl auf dem Kapital- als auch dem Versicherungsmarkt konfrontiert. Ein Informationsumfeld von hoher Güte ist daher von besonderer Relevanz. Neben der Pflichtberichterstattung, zu deren versicherungsspezifischer Ausgestaltung in der EU seit Jahren eine intensive Diskussion geführt wird, kann freiwillige Berichterstattung, wie die versicherungsspezifische Embedded-Value-Berichterstattung, einen Beitrag zur Güte des Informationsumfelds von Versicherungsunternehmen leisten. Die Autorin geht in diesem Zusammenhang den Fragen nach, welche unternehmensspezifischen Einflussfaktoren die Entscheidungen der Unternehmensleitungen in Bezug auf die freiwillige Embedded-Value-Berichterstattung determinieren und welchen Einfluss die Embedded-Value-Berichterstattung auf das Informationsumfeld der berichtenden Versicherungsunternehmen ausübt.

The Robot Factory
This book exposes a disturbing misuse of the scientific method to advance policies and agendas that are in fact detrimental to both science and education. The author, a physics professor, examines two related trends in education – the practice of “data-driven” reform and the disparaging of the traditional liberal arts in favor of programs with a heavy emphasis on science and technology. Many of the reforms being foisted on educators have more in common with pseudo-science than real science. The reduction of education to a commodity, and the shilling of science as a means to enhance corporate profits, lead to an impoverished and stunted understanding of science in particular, and of edu...
