Constitutional Innovation and Same-Sex Desire in D’Annunzio’s Fiume, 1919–1920
Drawing on novel archival evidence that sheds light on Anglo-Italian diplomatic relations and the French-Italian contest for power in the Adriatic, this book recounts the story of decadent poet Gabriele D’Annunzio’s occupation of Fiume. Determining the fate of this Italian enclave in coastal Croatia had proved impossible at the Paris Peace Conference. In September 1919, D’Annunzio and his ‘legionnaires’ installed themselves in Fiume in a bid to embarrass Italy into declaring its annexation. In the months that followed, the poet did his best to fashion Fiume into his ideal political community, culminating in the proclamation of a Constitution known as the Carnaro Charter. The Charte...
The Role of the Management Accountant
There is considerable national variation in the professionalization and status of the management accountant. Although researchers from different countries have contributed to our knowledge about tasks and roles, we have limited insights into the development, education, and socio-cultural influences in different countries and surprisingly little is known about the local and national contexts in which these roles are learned and performed. This book bridges this research gap using two complementary perspectives. The first part explores management accountants in a range of different national contexts, providing information about country-specific historical developments and educational standards as well as specific roles and tasks. The second part focusses on important global developments that will increasingly impact management accountants in the future, such as sustainability, the financial crisis, technology and changing roles. By combining local context with a global overview, this insightful volume provides an agenda for future research which will be of great interest to scholars and advanced students in management accounting throughout the world.
Skin Cancer - A World-Wide Perspective

This is not only confined to the incidence of melanoma but includes also other skin cancers such as basal cell carcinomas. Based on the recent WHO classification of skin cancers, this lavishly illustrated reference book covers comprehensively the epidemiology, histology and pathology, as well as diagnostic signs and treatment options of skin cancers. Homogenously and reader-friendly structured, it links the diagnostic and genetic features of each disease in order to guide the reader to the most appropriate therapeutic strategies for the best possible treatment outcome. In order to demonstrate the world wide activities in the field, all chapters cover the variations of the individual experiences and expertise in different nations.

Agiles Controlling
Die Dynamik, Komplexität und Unsicherheit der Veränderungen im Unternehmensumfeld der letzten Jahre haben gezeigt, wie schnell und auch disruptiv sich die Rahmenbedingungen von Unternehmen ändern können. Um den neuen Anforderungen gerecht zu werden, sollten Controllerinnen und Controller ihre bisherigen Controllingprozesse hinterfragen und an die neuen Anforderungen anpassen. Hier bekommt das Konzept der Agilität eine besondere Bedeutung. Doch lassen sich Prinzipien aus der Software-Entwicklung auf Controllingstrukturen übertragen? Um das zu klären, hat sich der Fachkreis Agiles Controlling des ICV, gegründet im Herbst 2020, mit folgenden Fragestellungen beschäftigt: Was zeichnet ag...
Big Data und Advanced Analytics im Controlling
Die Digitalisierung und Entwicklungen im Gebiet der künstlichen Intelligenz haben in den letzten Jahren erhebliche Veränderungen in der Gesellschaft und der Unternehmenspraxis hervorgerufen. Aufkommende Technologien in den Feldern Big Data und Advanced Analytics werden auch im Controlling zunehmend diskutiert oder bereits eingesetzt. Dabei befinden sich der Wissensstand, inwieweit Big Data und Advanced Analytics das Controlling beeinflussen und verändern können, und die praktische Anwendung noch in einem frühen Stadium. Diese Arbeit befasst sich deshalb mit der Untersuchung der möglichen Auswirkungen von Big Data und Advanced Analytics im Controlling. Vor diesem Hintergrund werden die Einflüsse dieser digitalen Trends auf den Informationsversorgungsprozess des Controllings, auf die Erfüllung Controlling-spezifischer Anforderungen an Informationen und auf das Forecasting, die Budgetierung und die strategische Planung analysiert. Ferner werden praxisrelevante Herausforderungen, Grenzen und Risiken bei der Implementierung und Nutzung identifiziert sowie Implikationen zu deren Umgang zur Ausschöpfung der Potenziale abgeleitet.
Controlling & Management Review Sonderheft 1-2015
Planungs- und Budgetierungsprozesse stehen seit Jahren in der Kritik, zu komplex und aufwendig zu sein. Sie binden zu viele Ressourcen in den Unternehmen, insbesondere im Controlling, so der häufige Vorwurf. Im Sonderheft 1/2015 der Controlling und Management Review berichten namenhafte Wissenschaftler und Vertreter bekannter Unternehmen wie Bosch, Deutsche Telekom und DB Schenker Rail Deutschland, mit welchen Konzepten sich Planungs- und Budgetierungsprozesse nachhaltig verschlanken lassen. Grundlagenbeiträge, Best Practices und Experten-Interviews liefern nützliche Einblicke, wo die Herausforderungen bei der Umstellung der Planungsprozesse in der Praxis liegen und wie diese von den Verantwortlichen gemeistert werden können.
Refusing to Kiss the Slipper
Refusing to Kiss the Slipper reveals that the French Reformation was more complex and colorful than previously recognized. History has long viewed all French Protestants as Calvinists; this book, by contrast, tells the stories of French Protestants who opposed and often detested John Calvin. These opponents believed that Calvin had set himself up as a "Protestant pope" demanding obedience to his own religious authority. They believed Calvin's self-appointed leadership undermined the bedrock principle of the Reformation that the faithful be allowed to challenge religious authorities.
