The Political System of Germany
This book offers a systematic, theory-based, and empirically grounded introduction to the political system of Germany. Compared to other textbooks on government and politics in Germany, it has two particular benefits. First, it analyzes the individual dimensions of the German political system from a uniform theoretical perspective based on the well-known distinction between majoritarian and consensus democracy. Second, it particularly explains how political decision-making in the multi-level system takes place, including the local, state, federal as well as EU levels. This way, the book provides a comprehensive, detailed, and clear picture of how German democracy is organized and how it works.
Before Auschwitz
Nazis began detaining Jews in camps as soon as they came to power in 1933. Kim Wünschmann reveals the origin of these extralegal detention sites, the harsh treatment Jews received there, and the message the camps sent to Germans: that Jews were enemies of the state, dangerous to associate with and fair game for acts of intimidation and violence.
2005
Annually published since 1930, the International Bibliography of Historical Sciences (IBOHS) is an international bibliography of the most important historical monographs and periodical articles published throughout the world, which deal with history from the earliest to the most recent times. The IBOHS is thus currently the only continuous bibliography of its kind covering such a broad period of time, spectrum of subjects and geographical range. The works are arranged systematically according to period, region or historical discipline, and alphabetically according to authors names or, in the case of anonymous works, by the characteristic main title word. The bibliography contains a geographical index and indexes of persons and authors.
Culture in Nazi Germany
“A much-needed study of the aesthetics and cultural mores of the Third Reich . . . rich in detail and documentation.” (Kirkus Reviews) Culture was integral to the smooth running of the Third Reich. In the years preceding WWII, a wide variety of artistic forms were used to instill a Nazi ideology in the German people and to manipulate the public perception of Hitler’s enemies. During the war, the arts were closely tied to the propaganda machine that promoted the cause of Germany’s military campaigns. Michael H. Kater’s engaging and deeply researched account of artistic culture within Nazi Germany considers how the German arts-and-letters scene was transformed when the Nazis came to ...

Engagementstrategien und Engagementpolitik
Die Engagementpolitik der Länder steht im Mittelpunkt des Schwerpunktthemas "Engagementstrategien und Engagementpolitik" – mit Fallstudien zu Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, Nordrhein-Westfalen und Baden-Württemberg. Gerahmt werden diese länderspezifischen Betrachtungen durch Überlegungen dazu, wie sich Infrastrukturen der Engagementförderung in Zusammenarbeit von Staat und Kommunen, Wirtschaft und Zivilgesellschaft (trisektoral) entwickeln lassen.

Nicht zuletzt bietet das Jahrbuch auch einen umfassenden Überblick über die Arbeit des Bundesnetzwerks Bürgerschaftliches Engagement (BBE).
Hand and Wrist Anatomy and Biomechanics
Overall, this is a very good book. The authors do an excellent job of presenting the relevant anatomy and tying it into kinematics and function. -- Doody's Reviews (starred review) There is a saying that "hand surgery without a tourniquet is like repairing a clock in a barrel full of dark ink." Operating without a sound fundamental knowledge of anatomy can be compared to "stirring around in the soup." Classic anatomy instruction covers only a fraction of the area of hand surgery: bones, muscles/ligaments, vessels, and nerves. The many different connective-tissue structures are often only briefly highlighted. The complex interaction of the various structures remains a mystery to most. This book presents the specialty of applied anatomy and is intended for medical professionals involved with the hand and its functionality: hand surgeons, trauma specialists, orthopaedists, plastic surgeons, occupational therapists, and physio-therapists. Key Features: Almost 150 illustrations, anatomical drawings, and photos of anatomy in vivo. Part 1 deals with the anatomy and functional anatomy of the hand Part 2 is dedicated to the surface anatomy of the structures of the forearm, wrist, and hand
Die 'Moor-SA'
Die SA-Wachmannschaften der Emslandlager in einem Spannungsfeld aus Gemeinschaftsbildung, Gewaltpraxis und völkischem Gestaltungsanspruch. In den nationalsozialistischen Strafgefangenenlagern im Emsland waren ab 1934 Häftlinge aus regulären Gefängnissen und Zuchthäusern einer umfassenden Gewaltpraxis von SA-Wachmannschaften ausgesetzt. Diese enwickelten mit ihrer Selbstbetitelung als "Moor-SA" Ansprüche, sowohl eine gewaltgeprägte "Erziehung" der Strafgefangenen durchzuführen, als auch die Erneuerung der Region voranzutreiben, da die Gefangenen in einem großangelegten Siedlungsprojekt zur Zwangsarbeit in der Moorkultivierung eingesetzt wurden. Mit einer breit angelegten Repräsentat...
