This book takes a critical view on corporate practice, governmental action and the general approach to Corporate Social Responsibility. It draws on experience from the Workplace Innovation movement and argues that, as with motherhood and apple pie, it is hard to oppose CSR, with a community of well-meaning people. It is however necessary to challenge the foundations on which it is based. Many accounts of CSR assume a consistent model of capitalism around the world. It is suggested that capitalism can be given a human face, as companies adopt programmes which go beyond the minimum legal requirements. This builds on traditions of optional corporate philanthropy. However, without changing the u...

Photosynthesis. Energy from the Sun

The Proceedings of the 14th International Congress on Photosynthesis is a record of the most recent advances and emerging themes in the discipline. This volume contains over 350 contributions from some 800 participants attending the meeting in Glasgow, UK in July 2007. These range from summary overview presentations from plenary speakers to expanded content of posters presented by students and their supervisors featuring the most recent achievements in photosynthesis research. In the words of Professor Eva-Mari Aro, President of the international Society of Photosynthesis Research 2004-7, “Having been taken for granted for centuries, research in photosynthesis has now become a matter of utmost importance for the future of planet Earth...Major initiatives are underway that will use research into natural and artificial photosynthesis for sustainable energy production....”. These volumes thus provide a glimpse of the future, from the molecule to the biosphere

Health in Restructuring

"Restructuring has become a daily practice in both private and public sectors in the EU. But often restructuring processes fail to produce the intended effects of secured or increased organizational profi tability. On the contrary restructuring puts the physical and psychosocial health of all organizational members at risk. To limit the risks of enterprise restructuring effectively, several groups of actors at the individual, enterprise and societal level have to collaborate towards the implementation of healthier change procedures and to create a "social convoy" in occupational transitions for workers affected by dismissal. The European Expert Group HIRES on Health in Restructuring was coor...

Erwerbslosigkeit

Erwerbslosigkeit ist nach wie vor ein vordringlich anzugehendes soziales Problem. Ein nennenswerter längerfristiger Trend einer rückläufigen Entwicklung der Arbeitslosenzahlen ist zumindest in Deutschland gegenwärtig kaum festzustellen. Was sind die Ursachen hierfür? Sind z.B. zu geringe Investitionen der Unternehmen, fehlende Lohnflexibilität oder die Diskriminierung bestimmter Gruppen hierfür verantwortlich? Dies sind einige der Fragen, die im vorliegenden Band untersucht werden.

Schwer vermittelbar

Wer ist für wen schwer vermittelbar? Die Autoren hoffen, mit ihren Beiträgen den Blick von Politikern und Wissenschaftlern, Bürokraten und Betroffenen für die Ursachen und das Ausmaß, für die Formen, Folgen und Bekämpfung der Langzeitarbeitslosigkeit zu schärfen. Aus der Verortung der Langzeitarbeitslosen zwischen diskontinuierlichen Erwerbsverläufen und sozialer Selektion ergeben sich folgende Themenschwerpunkte: soziologische und ökonomische Erklärungsansätze, gesellschaftliche Brennpunkte: Jugend, politische Radikalität, Alkoholismus und Isolation sowie Konzepte und Erfahrungen bei der Bekämpfung der Langzeitarbeitslosigkeit.
