'Church' at the Time of the Reformation
The present volume aims at a clarification and a discussion of the church in the 16th century: What did the reformers think about the essence and origin of the holy, apostolic and Catholic church? What was seen as the aim of it, its task and mission? Can human beings see the true church or not? Does it have one existence in this world and another in the world to come? Furthermore, the concept of church is indissolubly connected to the theological concepts of sin, faith, justification, sanctification, and salvation, and the study of the church also involves reflection upon the nature and scope of the sacraments, the role of the clergy, the aim of church-buildings, the significance of church p...
Quantifying Aristotle
This book offers an entirely new perspective on the alleged incompatibility between Aristotelian philosophy and the mathematical methods and principles that form the basis of modern science. It surveys the tradition of the Oxford Calculators from its beginnings in the fourteenth century until Leibniz and the philosophy of the seventeenth century and explores how their various techniques of quantification expanded the conceptual and methodological limits of Aristotelianism.
Building a Nazi Racial Community in the South-East
Im letzten Jahrzehnt erschienen zahlreiche Beiträge, die den transnationalen Charakter des Faschismus untersuchten, wenige jedoch gingen auf die Verstrickungen und Einflüsse zwischen dem Dritten Reich und den rechtsradikalen Bewegungen der deutschen Minderheiten in Südosteuropa ein. Der vorliegen- de Band möchte diese Lücke schließen, indem er Untersuchungen über die NS-Bewegungen unter den Deutschen in Rumänien, Ungarn, Jugoslawien und der Tschechoslowakei sowie deren Beziehungen zu Deutschland veröffentlicht. Die Kapitel behandeln Aspekte wie das Anwachsen der NS-Bewegung unter den jungen "Volksdeutschen", das Kulturleben, die Veränderungen in der deutschsprachigen Presse oder die Ressourcen-Mobilisierung zur Unterstützung des von Hitler geführten Krieges. Besondere Aufmerksamkeit wird dem Transfer von Praktiken in Politik, Ideologie und Propaganda geschenkt.
Management
Management is a craft - a universal discipline, the most important one of the 21st century. In this book, the leading author in the field of general management gives an overview of the principles and foundations that general management is based on. Looking far ahead into the information age, Malik explains the factors for success which can be verified both scientifically and practically. Fredmund Malik's general management theory is system-oriented and therefore valid all over the world at any given time. It works in all areas and industries of any society, irrespective of changing trends, of national or of cultural differences. With his consistent and well-grounded alignment along the natural phenomena of complex systems - phenomena that both executives and managers have to cope with every day - Malik sets the standard for sound management in the era of knowledge. "One of the best management books. It contains wise and exceptional ideas." WirtschaftsWoche

Schönberg-Handbuch
Arnold Schönberg war als Komponist und Künstlerpersönlichkeit gleichermaßen einflussreich und umstritten. Seine musikalischen Werke, seine Unterrichtstätigkeit und sein theoretisches Werk begründeten die „Neue Musik“ des 20. Jahrhunderts, seine Schriften – von der tagesaktuellen Polemik bis zur theologischen Reflexion – spiegeln die intellektuelle Entwicklung einer ganzen Epoche, seine bis heute kontrovers beurteilte Malerei ist ein faszinierender Nebenpfad des österreichischen Expressionismus. Zum 150. Geburtstag erscheint eine umfassende Bestandsaufnahme dieses Jahrhundertwerks – mit aktuellen Forschungsergebnissen, analytischen und essayistischen Beiträgen, ausführliche...
