Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. Neuware -Entrepreneurial journalism has gathered scientific attention in the last few years in the context of the transformations in the media ecosystem and the development in the entrepreneurship filed. The aim of this research project is to contribute to the relatively small body of research specifically on the ethical dimensions. Based on the research gaps found in the literature, the study focuses on two discussion points: What are the relevant aspects regarding the ethical dimensions of entrepreneurial journalism How can one deal with the ethical issues deriving from practicing entrepreneurial journalism The theoretical framework of entrepreneurial ambidexterity is applied since it can be used on the individual level and involves in its essence performing two seemingly conflicting tasks at the same time. The current study uses a qualitative approach to obtain data by conducting semi-structured interviews with 8 practitioners from the USA, Albania, Bulgaria, Germany and the Republic of North Macedonia.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 80 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. Neuware -Having worked for years in mental health care and as a lecturer on a variety of Health and Social Care related degree programmes I developed a strong interest in mental illness. Especially the issues around hallucinations were of interest to me, as some hallucinations had the power to overwhelm the sufferer, while others revealed themselves as unreal to the one having these hallucinatory episodes. In this book I try to make a case for the pseudo-hallucinations, which have - by some - been deemed as a redundant concept. By way of a phenomenological investigation I argue that the concept of pseudo-hallucinations is an important one and that the essential difference between hallucinations and pseudo-hallucinations could even be empirically established.This book is supposed to inform the advanced student, practitioner and academic researcher either working in mental health, psychiatry or in the application of philosophical and phenomenological thought to psychopathologies.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 68 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. Neuware -Physics of today is in a chaotic situation. This sitation is explained in the book as caused by our confusions regarding the relation between mathematics and physics, and also by our bad understanding of the wave model for light. It is demonstrated that a correct application of the wave model means, that the particle model for light is not needed, and that using wave model only means that we can get rid of the absurdities in physics of today, However, we need the ether, and particles may be needed for describing the ether. The book denonstrates that the confusion in physics is older than generally assumed.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 52 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. Neuware -The accelerated pace of economic-social development carries the military instrument in its bandolier, the one with which it every so often reverses tempos, shares methods and exchanges roles. If the Cold War showed us that it was possible for humanity to be destroyed through nuclear weapons, the decades after the fall of the Iron Curtain came with distilled versions for rearranging the power in the international framework. This phenomenon brings along developments of the internal frameworks of manifestation of the states, those of some economic agents that often exceed the economic power of some countries, as well as a fierce competition between the powers that pursue a global or regional status. Far from being fair play, the competition even insinuates and initiates a stepping out of the picture of the human being, the one who is made to build an alter ego with technical features that are apparently planned for his/her own good.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 84 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. Neuware -The field experiment was carried out during the month of June to October 2009 at the Experimental Farm of School of Agricultural Sciences and Rural Development, Nagaland university, Campus :Medziphema, Nagaland with the objective to study ¿The Effect of Phosphorus and Boron on Growth, Yield and Quality of Soybean (Glycine max L. merril) in Acid Soil of Nagaland¿. The experiment was carried out in Randomised Block Design (RBD) with three replications. Four levels of phosphorus (P0, P20, P4o and P60) and four levels of boron (B0, B0.5, B1 and B1.5) were taken as treatments. The response of soybean to various treatments were recorded. It was found that the Phosphorus and Boron application significantly influenced the growth, yield and yield attributes, the protein content, nutrient uptake (NPKB) and available soil nutrient (NPKB) at different levels of P and B. Their combined effect also showed significant influence in all the stages of its observation. The combined application of 60 kg P2O5 and 1.5 kg B ha-1 was found to promote better growth, development and yield of soybean under the acidic soil condition of Nagaland.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 64 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. Neuware -This script explores the rationale of interwovenness and profound philosophical thinking that a God, had to be part of the predictive processing entropies of the brain with the South African Theologian, Wentzel J. van Huyssteen's epistemological consciousness as an extra advantage to examine our planet and therefore our cosmic-universe that transcends human God-concepts. In this material, the connection between metaphysically free energy, and Van Huyssteen`s epistemic consciousness are used as a metaphor(s) in our estimates of what life is, that include a God, as it will show that we as humans can reasonably expect to exist beyond this (the) earth. It is therefore the primary question that resonates with the whole of the universe as well as the minute fragmentation that is humans, only recently identified as sapiens, that sigh, or even better, longing for a God, that encloses the question of: are we as humans made of organs, metabolic systems, cells, atoms, memories, or passions, that are a plausible mixture of an effective cognitive and effective cocktail, so to speak Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 56 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. Neuware -In contemporary armed conflicts, civilians constitute majority of casualties and are at times been deliberately targeted. Protection for the civilian is a basic purpose of international humanitarian law. Many parties to armed conflicts such as rebel groups, terrorists and government forces, use civilians¿ targets as a war weapon to achieve their goals. Civilian protection is both a moral obligation since everyone has the right not to be arbitrarily deprived of their life, and a legal obligation to all States to protect civilians in situations where they are involved in military action.The century long conflict between Israel and Palestine is one of the most violent confrontations the world has ever witnessed. The UN charter prohibits the use of force by states, however, under Article 51 a State can use force in self-defense. This work argues that the baseline probability of claiming the right remains low because explicit reference to Article 51 accompanies the uncertainty of justification success. The enjoyment of this inherent is further complicated by the existence of comprehensive international humanitarian laws which obligates States to refrain from attacks on civilian targets.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 52 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. Neuware -Participation is a wider concept with different degrees of engagement and is very pertinent in the process of decentralization. The aim of the study is to evaluate the nature of people¿s participation in the Local Government Institutions (LGIs) in Bangladesh. To establish inclusive LGIs government has been engaging in local government reforms for more than two decades. As participation in LGIs has gained considerable attention and LGIs have been recognized as key implementation mechanisms for achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) so it is worthy to constitute a participatory LGI. Since independence UPs are ruled by elected representatives so it is assumed to be a milestone for people¿s participation. The Bangladesh constitution and legislation has made provisions for inclusion and participation of poor and marginalized groups. But, due to political, social and cultural shortcomings there exist wide gaps between desired level of participation and field level reality. Though different authors have identified some number of initiatives for social inclusion but some others have identified lots of loopholes in the existing system of participation.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 80 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. Neuware -The main concern of this study is the analysis of the blend of ideas on religion. However, this study attempts to present essays on religion rather than examining with intense scientific concern. Religious fact shapes every society¿s daily life from the beginning of human history. Religion contains many issues worth studying, which have the function of mobilizing societies and ensuring social balance. The destructive and constructive effects of religion on social life were analyzed by many social scientists with its opponents or supporters that focused on functions. The religious actions pushed many founding sociologists to investigate that branch. At the end of the medieval age, existing questionings deepened more. Accordingly, the opportunities increased to examine the origin of religion in research on tribal communities by modern science. This study aims to establish only an idea experiment rather than providing such an in-depth analysis. In this way, it may also pioneer the efforts to study this issue. It was not needed to examine the essays under specific systematic titles.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 88 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. Neuware -Media hype is not a new phenomenon in Bangladesh. It is widely admitted that the intensity of media hype in Bangladesh has rapidly increased over the years. We cannot deny the fact that media hype has become a profitable business for both the reporters and the owners of the media both print and electronic. Morality, integrity and objectivity of news media have been banished from the domain of objective journalism. General people depend on news media for many information. When people see that media provide them false, half true or distorted news or information, they lose their interest and confidence in the media. This has, in fact, happened in Bangladesh. I feel that resorting to media hype should be made a punishable offence. This measure may reduce the intensity of media hype. Most of the owners of media in our country are hardcore businessman. Their only aim is to earn profit by any means, fair or foul. Social responsibilities and moral bindings are almost absent in their thoughts and consciousness. We do not have strong press regulatory body. This gives our journalists an unbridled scope to exaggerate and distort facts or real incidents.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 72 pp. Englisch.
