Season of Infamy A Diary of War and Occupation, 1939-1945
Charles Rist, "Season of Infamy: A Diary of War and Occupation, 1939-1945"
English | ISBN: 0253019443 | 2016 | 576 pages | PDF | 5 MB
In 1939, the 65-year old French political economist Charles Rist was serving as advisor to the French government and consultant to the international banking and business world. As France anxiously awaited a German invasion, Rist traveled to America to negotiate embargo policy. Days after his return to Paris, the German offensive began and with it the infamous season of occupation. Retreating to his villa in Versailles, Rist turned his energies to the welfare of those closest to him, while in his diary he began to observe the unfolding of the war. Here the deeply learned Rist investigates the causes of the disaster and reflects on his country's fate, placing the behavior of the "people" and the "elite" in historical perspective. Though well-connected, Rist and his family and friends were not exempt from the perils and tragedies of war, as the diary makes clear.

Remixing European Jazz Culture (Transnational Studies in Jazz)
Remixing European Jazz Culture (Transnational Studies in Jazz) By Kristin McGee
2019 | 272 Pages | ISBN: 1138585483 | PDF | 9 MB
Remixing European Jazz Culture examines a jazz culture that emerged in the 1990s in cosmopolitan cities like Amsterdam, Rotterdam, Berlin, London, and Oslo - energised by the introduction of studio technologies into the live performance space, which has since developed into internationally recognised, eclectic, hybrid jazz styles. This book explores these oft-overlooked musicians and their forms that have nonetheless expanded the plane of jazz's continued prosperity, popularity, and revitalisation in the twenty-first century -one where remix is no longer the sole domain of studio producers. Seeking to update the orthodoxies of the field of jazz studies, Remixing European Jazz Culture: incorporates electronic and digital performance, recording, and distribution practices that have transformed the culture since the 1980s; provides a more diverse and multifaceted cultural representation of European jazz and the contributions of a variety of performers; and offers an encompassing picture of the depth of jazz practice that has erupted through Northern Europe since 1989.With an expansion of international networks and a disintegration of artistic boundaries, the collaborative, performative, and real-time improvisational process of remixing has stimulated a merging of the music's past and present within European jazz culture.

Property Rights Philosophic Foundations
Property Rights: Philosophic Foundations By Lawrence C. Becker
2015 | 146 Pages | ISBN: 1138015938 | PDF | 6 MB
Property Rights: Philosophic Foundations, first published in 1977, comprehensively examines the general justifications for systems of private property rights, and discusses with great clarity the major arguments as to the rights and responsibilities of property ownership. In particular, the arguments that hold that there are natural rights derived from first occupancy, labour, utility, liberty and virtue are considered, as are the standard anti-property arguments based on disutility, virtue and inequality, and the belief that justice in distribution must take precedence over private ownership. Lawrence Becker goes on to contend that there are four sound lines of argument for private property that, together with what is sound in the anti-property arguments, must be co-ordinated to form the foundations of a new theory. He therefore expounds a concise but sophisticated theory of property that is relevant to the modern world, and concludes by indicating some of the implications of his theory.

Die Finanzierung der Krankenhäuser ist von den DRGs abhängig. Die Pflege als Leistungs- und Kostenfaktor im Krankenhaus ist gefordert, an einer optimalen Eingruppierung von Patienten mitzuwirken. Von der korrekten Eingruppierung wird das Fortbestehen eines Krankenhauses am Markt stark beeinflusst werden. Die Pflege muss zeigen, wie ihre Leistungen im Rahmen der DRGs abgebildet werden können. Eine Möglichkeit sind die Pflegediagnosen. Sie helfen Pflege messbar und abrechenbar zu gestalten.
