The Convenience of Corporate Crime
As documented in a number of case studies (from Telia Telecom in Sweden to Wirecard in Germany) in this book, recidivism seems to be of a substantial magnitude in corporate crime. Corporations tend to repeat white-collar offenses such as financial crime and environmental crime in various forms as long as they find it convenient. A minor fine from time to time and dismissal of some executives as scapegoats do not prevent corporations from committing and concealing new offenses as long as there is a convenient financial motive, a convenient organizational opportunity, and a convenient willingness for deviant behavior. Businesses and their executives tend to be recidivists who get away with light punishment in most jurisdictions. The relevant audiences for this book include law students, business students, sociology students, and criminology students. Fraud examiners, defense attorneys, compliance officers, police investigators, as well as prosecutors can find the structural model of convenience to be an ideal template in preparing corporate crime case narratives.
Rezo, Ramstein Und Drohnent繹tungen Im Jemen
Ausgehend von dem Video-Essay "Die Zerst繹rung der CDU" des Youtubers Rezo aus dem Jahr 2019 analysiert Bettina Gr瓣f die Berichterstattung 羹ber Drohnent繹tungen in etablierten und neuen deutschsprachigen Medien. Sie lenkt die Aufmerksamkeit auf drei verschr瓣nkte Felder. Erstens thematisiert sie die deutsche Verantwortung f羹r Drohnent繹tungen in L瓣ndern, mit denen weder Deutschland noch die NATO offiziell im Krieg stehen, wie Afghanistan, Pakistan, Jemen und Somalia. Diese L瓣nder fallen in den Bereich der Islamwissenschaft und der Regionalwissenschaften. Dortige Drohnent繹tungen wurden bisher jedoch, und dies beschreibt das zweite Feld, trotz ihrer weitreichenden sozialen und psychologischen Folgen f羹r die ans瓣ssige Bev繹lkerung, in diesen Wissenschaften nicht systematisch aufgegriffen. In vorliegendem Text, der Teil eines gr繹?eren Forschungsprojekts darstellt, wird deshalb drittens eine medien- und kulturwissenschaftliche Untersuchung des Ph瓣nomens Drohnent繹tungen vorgeschlagen, die sich selbst innerhalb der Islam- und Regionalwissenschaften verortet.

Moral Blindness in Business
In this book, Jacob Dahl Rendtorff investigates moral blindness in business and public administration based on Hannah Arendt's concept of banality of evil in her famous report on the Nazi-criminal Adolf Eichmann trail in Jerusalem in 1961. Moral blindness and evil in management is instrumental wrongdoing inflicted upon human beings as a violation of their dignity and humanity. Organizational evil in business, bureaucracies and public administration is analysed with focus on obedience to authority and systemic role conformity of managers and administrators. This includes the critical question about how concepts of banality of evil and moral blindness can explain ethical insensibility and lack of moral understanding in business and administration. Rendtorff proposes a humanistic vision of management and ethical leadership. Moral thinking, responsibility and moral judgment is essential in management and governance in business and administration. This book is a must-read for academics and practitioners studying and working in philosophy of management, business ethics, political philosophy, administration ethics and corporate social responsibility.

We hope that students enjoyed squeezing every drop out of their metaphorical lemons to create some juicy, sweet, and refreshing lemonade. We hope to see these amazing business ideas become realities for students in their future as well.

Proscribing Peace
Proscribing peace offers a systematic examination of the impact of proscription on peace negotiations. With rare access to actors during the Colombian negotiations with the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia People's Army (FARC), Sophie Haspeslagh shows how proscription makes negotiations harder and more prolonged. By introducing the concept of 'linguistic ceasefire', Haspeslagh adds to our understanding of the timing and sequencing of peace processes in the context of proscription. Linguistic ceasefire has three main components: first, recognise the conflict; second, discard the 'terrorist' label, and third, uncouple the act and the actor. These measures remove the symbolic impact of proscription, even where de-listing is not possible ahead of negotiations. With relevance for more than half of the conflicts around the world in which an armed group is listed as a terrorist organisation, 'linguistic ceasefire' helps to explain why certain conflicts remain stuck in the 'terrorist' framing, while others emerge from it. International proscription regimes criminalise both the actor and the act of terrorism. Proscribing peace calls for an end to the amalgamation between acts and actors. By focussing on the acts instead, Haspeslagh argues, international policy would be better able to consider the violent actions both of armed groups and those of the state. By separating the act and the actor, change - and thus peace - become possible.This book is relevant to United Nations Sustainable Development Goal 16, Peace, justice and strong institutions
Education in Eastern Europe and Central Asia
Countries in Eastern Europe and Central Asia have clear aspirations to strengthen civic participation and increase prosperity for all. A highly skilled and knowledgeable population is critical to achieving these goals, which makes creating and maintaining high quality and equitable education systems a vital part of regional development efforts. Results from the Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA) show that learning outcomes in the region have generally improved, but that the improvement has not been equitable. While countries in the region are producing some of the top performing students in the world, many other students are being left behind.

Der eine sieht sich im Recht, der andere im Unrecht. Er f羹hlt sich missachtet oder schlecht behandelt, zur羹ckgesetzt oder benachteiligt. Mit verbaler Kraft und notfalls auch mit physischer Gewalt.

Wie sollen die alle 'unter einen Hut' gebracht werden? Es gilt, sich Gedanken zu machen 羹ber Perfektionismus, Stress, Burnout, Selbst-Marketing, Wertsch瓣tzung, Team-Entwicklung, Intelligenz, Zeitoptimierung. Wie kann ein Mensch seine Soft Skills optimieren? Er findet heraus, was ihn als Pers繹nlichkeit ausmacht. Er kann definieren, was er gut kann (St瓣rken) und was nicht zu seinen St瓣rken z瓣hlt (Schw瓣chen). Dann beginnt der gro?e zweite Schritt in seinem Vorgehen. Er macht sich Gedanken, wie ihn der andere sieht und wie er gesehen werden will. Dank seinem Einf羹hlungsverm繹gen schafft er es, sich in die Gedanken und Sichtweisen anderer Menschen hineinzuversetzen und die Vorgehensweisen anderer einzusch瓣tzen. Er lernt, sich auf Neues einzulassen, Fremdes kennenzulernen und zu akzeptieren. Gleichzeitig erweitert er seinen Horizont, da er neues Wissen erlernt und zahlreiche Erfahrungen sammeln kann.

Reminiscences of a Stock Operator (Warbler Classics)
Edwin Lef癡vre's Reminiscences of a Stock Operator is a fictionalized autobiography based on the life of Jesse Livermore (1877-1940) who was a pioneer of day trading and one of the greatest investors of all time.

This classic of American business writing continues to offer sharp insights into the art and psychology of trading and speculation. It is one of the most widely read, highly recommended investment books of all time.This Warbler Classics edition includes an illustrated life of Jesse Livermore.

Business Ethics for Better Behavior
A clear and concise roadmap for ethical business behavior using commonsense moral principles Business Ethics for Better Behavior concisely answers the three most pressing ethical questions business professionals face: What makes business practices right or wrong?; Why do normal, decent businesspeople of good will sometimes do the wrong thing?; and How can we use the answer to these questions to get ourselves, our coworkers, our bosses, and our employees to behave better? Bad behavior in business rarely results from bad will. Most people mean well much of the time. But most of us are vulnerable. We all fall into moral traps, usually without even noticing. Business Ethics for Better Behavior teaches business professionals, students, and other readers how to become aware of those traps, how to avoid them, and how to dig their way out if they fall in. It integrates the best work in psychology, economics, management theory, and normative philosophy into a simple action plan for ensuring the best ethical performance at all levels of business practice. This is a book anyone in business, from an entry-level employee to CEO, can use.
Home Truths
Introducing New Zealand's Jonah Solomon, a cop In the broody, bloody, and brilliant tradition of Ian Rankin's Detective Inspector John RebusDetective Sergeant Jonah Solomon is used to navigating the ruins of Christchurch, New Zealand, a city nowhere near recovery more than a year after a devastating earthquake. He's also used to navigating the prejudice that keeps plenty of doors closed to Māori officers like him. Most of his colleagues think Jonah's responsible for letting ex-cop-turned-con artist Rachel Trix escape justice with barely a slap on the wrist. He's got a resignation letter in his desk drawer, signed and ready, should anyone ask.With a credible new tip on Trix's exit plan, Jonah has one more chance to make things right-until an ambush turns the operation into a bloody nightmare. He is immediately shaken by aftershocks that reveal lies and corruption at every level of the police force. With fewer and fewer people he can trust, a complex web of secrets puts Jonah and his family at the mercy of ruthless criminals. Can he finally reveal the truths he's protected since childhood in order to save himself and the people he loves most?

Vocational Education and Training in Thailand
One of a series of studies on vocational education and training, this review assesses vocational education and training (VET) in Thailand and provides policy recommendations. VET has the potential to provide relevant education and training opportunities to young people and adults in Thailand, especially as the demand for technical skills is high. This can be achieved by building on the strengths of the system, including a strong postsecondary vocational system and a small but dynamic dual system. However, it remains an unattractive option for many students in Thailand, because of a poor image among students and parents, quality issues, a hard-to-navigate system and limited progression pathways. Additional efforts are therefore needed to align the mix of provision with the needs of the Thai labour market. This review provides recommendations on how to improve access to programmes, reduce inequalities in access to high-quality institutions and programmes, make better use of skills intelligence to inform education and training policies, and engage employers in the design and delivery of vocational education and training, including work-based learning.
Why Women Innovate

The Value Orientations of Buddhist and Christian Entrepreneurs
This book is a comparative analysis of the value orientations of Buddhist and Christian entrepreneurs and how these values impact business. The chapters review and analyze the concepts of Buddhist economics and the social teaching of the Roman Catholic Church. The value orientations of Buddhist and Christian entrepreneurs are described by irreducible core values that correspond to the ontological conception, the procedural dimension, and the "other directedness" of a spiritual value commitment in business. The book includes the reflections of Buddhist and Christian entrepreneurs about business spirituality, profit, the temporal perspectives of business, and stakeholder management. The cases testify that a spiritual value orientation can contribute to creating genuine ethical commitment. The findings and the examples can encourage business scholars and practitioners to stop considering ethics as an instrument in the service of profit and serve as inspiration for integrating spirituality into business in a profound way. This book will be of interest to scholars studying business ethics, workplace spirituality and faith at work.
Mastering the Game
There's nothing more frustrating than playing a game without knowing all the rules. Lawyer and diversity consultant, Sharon E. Jones, can attest to this in her professional life. In her decades of professional experience, Jones has learned how to navigate the complexities of corporate culture and excel in organizations and industries still dominated by White male leadership. Jones acknowledges that it wasn't easy, but she hopes that her new guide to career advancement as a diverse professional will help you avoid some of these same challenges.As a woman of color, she has spent her entire career navigating the conscious and unconscious biases of her supervisors and peers. Jones demystifies ten unwritten "rules of the game" and provides over 100 strategies to help women and other diverse professionals succeed.Jones discusses: the current trends in diversity in the workplace, the importance of visualizing your goals before you even begin, the value emotional tenacity will have as you encounter challenging situations, the need to identify the metrics for success, the difference good sponsorship can make for your career, the ways your professional appearance alters others' opinions of you, the importance of self-promoting and advertising your strengths, and more rules and techniques to help you build your vision of personal and professional success. Jones has discovered that these lessons can apply to every type of organization and industry. She understands that women and people of color need to work twice as hard just to get rewarded, and she wants to help you overcome the challenges you may face in your workplace. With both research and her own personal anecdotes, Jones explains the best ways to achieve your own definition of career success.
Das gro?e Buch der Rhetorik 2100
"Er betrachtete die Seezunge, die die Tante a?." Wer da wohl wen gegessen hat? Ist es beneidenswert oder doch eher 瓣rgerlich, wenn der Interviewpartner aus der Politik, der Wirtschaft, der Wissenschaft, der Religion oder anderen Bereichen, auf die gestellten Fragen des Interviewers wunderbare wohlklingende Antworten gibt, die aber - genau analysiert - 羹berhaupt nichts mit der gestellten Frage zu tun haben. Auf der einen Seite 瓣rgerlich, wie geschickt ausgewichen wird; auf der anderen Seite ist es aus rhetorischer Betrachtungsweise hoch interessant, wie - eben rhetorisch geschickt - auf ein anderes Thema eingegangen wird. Der Profi w瓣hlt seine Worte gezielt - W繹rter haben eine mitschwingende Bedeutung. Wer rhetorisch geschult ist, kann seine Idee, seine Ware oder seine Dienstleistung 羹berzeugend und au-thentisch 'verkaufen'. Die Zuh繹rer werden gefesselt vom Inhalt der Rede, des Vortrags oder der Pr瓣sentation und sind begeistert vom vermittelten Inhalt beziehungsweise der 羹berbrachten Botschaft. Das rhetorische Feuer ist 羹bergesprungen. Umso wichtiger ist es, sich gut auf eine Pr瓣sentation vorzubereiten, die Zuh繹rer (ein)-zubinden und auftretendes Lampenfieber in den Griff zu bekommen. Die Kraft der W繹rter, die Kraft der Stimme, die Wechselwirkung zwischen Redner und Zuh繹rer bereiten den Weg zum rhetorischen Erfolg. Es werden ?bungen gezeigt, wie sich der Laie zum rhetorischen Profi entwickeln kann, sei es in einer Pr瓣senz-Veranstaltung oder in Online-Form, allein oder im Team. Viel Erfolg beim Trainieren, ?ben und vor allem erfolgreichen Umsetzen der rhetorischen Tricks und Kniffe und viel Kurzweil beim Eintauchen in die hochinteressante Thematik der Rhetorik bis hin zur perfekten Kunst der Rede.

Creative Autonomy, Copyright and Popular Music in Nigeria
This book provides an in-depth analysis of the unique structure of the Nigerian popular music industry. It explores the dissonance between copyright's thematic support for creative autonomy and the practical ways in which the law allows singer-songwriters' (performing authors') creative autonomy to be subverted in their contractual relationships with record labels. The book establishes the concept of creative autonomy for performing authors as a key criterion for sustainable economic development, and makes innovative legal and policy recommendations to help stakeholders preserve it.
