The volume is about getting a 'good governance' grip on this important industry.

This book will appeal to a broad range of audiences: undergraduate and postgraduate students, academic researchers, policy makers, NGOs, practicing lawyers and industry representatives.
Aquiles en el Gineceo (Tetralogía de la Ejemplaridad)
by Javier Gomá LanzónAquiles en el gineceo cuenta el proceso subjetivo de formación de la ejemplaridad. Sirviéndose de un mito griego presenta los dos estadios que debe recoger el yo para convertirse en un individuo ejemplar. Aquiles pasó su adolescencia en un gineceo siendo inmortal como un dios y en determinado momento lo abandonó rumbo al campo de batalla de Troya donde sabía que iba a morir. ¿Por qué tomó esta decisión? Elige ser mortal porque la mortalidad es el precio que debe pagar por llegar a ser verdaderamente individual y merecer el título del mejor de los hombres. Todos nosotros recorremos ese mismo camino del gineceo a Troya y, como Aquiles, debemos aprender a ser mortales para ser individuales. Cada uno de los títulos de esta tetralogía es autónomo y de lectura independiente y al mismo tiempo los cuatro forman parte de un plan unitario en torno a la idea de la ejemplaridad: su historia y su teoría general, su formación subjetiva, su aplicación en la esfera política y su relación con la esperanza.
Aquinas: Political Writings
by R. W. Dyson Thomas AquinasThomas Aquinas (1225-1274) is an extremely influential figure in the history of Western thought and the Catholic church. In this major addition to the Cambridge Texts in the History of Political Thought series, Robert Dyson has translated texts by Aquinas that reflect the complete range of his thinking, and clearly show his development of a Christian version of the philosophy of Aristotle. His translations are supported by brief biographies, notes for further reading and a concise critical introduction.
Aquinas and Modern Law (Philosophers And Law Ser.)
by JamesBernard MurphyThis volume collects some of the best recent writings on St. Thomas‘s philosophy of law and includes a critical examination of Aquinas‘s theory of the relation between law and morality, his natural law theory, as well as the modern reformulation of his approach to natural rights. The volume shows how Aquinas understood the importance of positive law and demonstrates the modern relevance of his writings by including Thomistic critiques of modern jurisprudence and examples of applications of Thomistic jurisprudence to specific modern legal problems such as federalism, environmental policy, abortion and euthanasia. The volume also features an introduction which places Aquinas‘s writings in the context of modern jurisprudence as well as an extensive bibliography. The volume is suited to the needs of jurisprudence scholars, teachers and students and is an essential resource for all law libraries.
Aquinas and the Market: Toward a Humane Economy
by Mary L. HirschfeldEconomists investigate the workings of markets and tend to set ethical questions aside. Theologians often dismiss economics, losing insights into the influence of market incentives on individual behavior. Mary L. Hirschfeld bridges this gap by showing how a humane economy can lead to the good life as outlined in the thought of St. Thomas Aquinas.

Aquinas's Ethics (Elements in Ethics)
by Thomas M. Osborne JrThis Element provides an account of Thomas Aquinas's moral philosophy that emphasizes the intrinsic connection between happiness and the human good, human virtue, and the precepts of practical reason. Human beings by nature have an end to which they are directed and concerning which they do not deliberate, namely happiness. Humans achieve this end by performing good human acts, which are produced by the intellect and the will, and perfected by the relevant virtues. These virtuous acts require that the agent grasps the relevant moral principles and uses them in particular cases.
Arab Constitutionalism: The Coming Revolution
by Zaid Al-AliAfter the 2011 uprisings started in Tunisia and swept across the Arab region, more than a dozen countries amended their constitutions, the greatest concentration of constitutional reform processes since the end of the Cold War. This book provides a detailed account and analysis of all of these developments. Individual accounts are provided of eight different reform processes (including Tunisia, Egypt, Libya, Yemen and Sudan), with particular focus on the historical context, the political dynamics, the particular process that each country followed and the substantive outcome. Zaid Al-Ali deconstructs the popular demands that were made in 2011 and translates them into a series of specific actions that would have led to freer societies and a better functioning state. A revolution did not take place in 2011, but it is inevitably part of the region's future and Arab Constitutionalism explores what that revolution could look like.
Arab Criminology (Criminology in Focus)
by Nabil Ouassini Anwar OuassiniThe objective of Arab Criminology is to establish a criminological sub-field called ‘Arab Criminology.’ The ever-evolving field of criminology has advanced in the past decade, yet many impediments remain. Unlike criminology in Africa, Asia, the Americas, Europe, and Oceania based merely on geopolitical constructs, the Arab world has unique commonalities that do not exist in the other established sub-fields on criminology. The Arab world has largely remained in criminology’s periphery despite the region’s considerable importance to current international affairs. In response, this book explores two main questions: Why should we and how do we establish a sub-field in Arab Criminology? The authors examine the state of criminology in the Arab world, define its parameters, and present four components that bond and distinguish Arab criminology from other criminological area studies. They then identify the requirements for establishing Arab criminology and detail how local, regional, and international researchers can collaborate, develop, and expand the sub-field. Arab Criminology will challenge some of the recurrent Orientalist and Islamophobic tropes in Northern criminology and progress the discipline of criminology to reflect a more diverse focus that embraces regions from the Global South. Presenting compelling arguments and examples that support the establishment of this sub-field, Arab Criminology will be of great interest to Criminology, Criminal Justice, Legal Studies, and Middle Eastern/North African studies scholars, particularly those working on Southern Criminology, Comparative Criminology, International Criminal Justice Systems, and Arab studies.
Arabs at Home and in the World: Human Rights, Gender Politics, and Identity (Routledge Research in Human Rights Law)
by Karla M. McKandersThis volume brings together an interdisciplinary group of scholars from the United States, the Middle East, and North Africa, to discuss and critically analyze the intersection of gender and human rights laws as applied to individuals of Arab descent. It seeks to raise consciousness at the intersection of gender, identity, and human rights as it relates to Arabs at home and throughout the diaspora. The context of revolution and the destabilizing impact of armed conflicts in the region are used to critique and examine the utility of human rights law to address contemporary human rights issues through extralegal strategies. To this end, the volume seeks to inform, educate, persuade, and facilitate newer or less-heard perspectives related to gender and masculinities theories. It provides readers with new ways of understanding gender and human rights and proposes forward-looking solutions to implementing human rights norms. The goal of this book is to use the context of Arabs at home and throughout the diaspora to critique and examine the utility of human rights norms and laws to diminish human suffering with the goal of transforming the structural, social, and cultural conditions that impede access to human rights. This book will be of interest to a diverse audience of scholars, students, public policy researchers, lawyers and the educated public interested in the fields of human rights law, international studies, gender politics, migration and diaspora, and Middle East and North African politics.
Arastu ki Nikomachiyan Nitishastra ka hindi Anuvad: अरस्तू की निकोमाचियन नीति शास्त्र का हिंदी अनुवाद
by Dr Alok Kumar"अरस्तू का निकोमाचियन नीतिशास्त्र" अरस्तू की नैतिकता पर सबसे प्रसिद्ध कृति है, जिसमें दस पुस्तकें शामिल हैं। यह कृति अरस्तू की नैतिक दृष्टिकोण को परिभाषित करने में महत्वपूर्ण भूमिका निभाती है और माना जाता है कि यह उनके लिसेयुम में दिए गए व्याख्यानों पर आधारित है। शीर्षक उनके बेटे निकोमैचस के संदर्भ में हो सकता है, जिन्हें यह कार्य समर्पित किया गया था या जिन्होंने इसे संपादित किया हो, या फिर उनके पिता के संदर्भ में, जिनका नाम भी निकोमाचुस था। इस कृति का मुख्य प्रश्न यह है कि मनुष्य सबसे अच्छा जीवन कैसे जी सकता है, जो एक सामाजिक प्रश्न है जिसे पहले अरस्तू के शिक्षक प्लेटो द्वारा उठाया गया था। अरस्तू ने अपने उत्तर में सुकरात की भूमिका को रेखांकित किया, जिन्होंने दर्शन को मानवीय प्रश्नों में परिवर्तित किया, जबकि पूर्व-सुकरातिक दर्शन केवल सैद्धांतिक था। अरस्तू की नैतिकता व्यावहारिक है और इसका उद्देश्य केवल अच्छे जीवन का चिंतन नहीं, बल्कि अच्छे जीवन का निर्माण भी है। यही कारण है कि यह कृति राजनीति से भी जुड़ी हुई है, जिसका उद्देश्य लोगों को अच्छा बनाना है। नैतिकता व्यक्तियों के सर्वश्रेष्ठ जीवन की दिशा में मार्गदर्शन करती है, जबकि राजनीति पूरे समुदाय की भलाई के लिए कानून बनाने वाले दृष्टिकोण से इसे देखती है। इस प्रकार, अरस्तू की नैतिकता और राजनीति आपस में घनिष्ठ रूप से जुड़े हुए हैं।
Arbeitsbuch zu Grundlagen der Mikroökonomik
by Martin Kolmar Magnus HoffmannDies ist das begleitende Arbeitsbuch zum Lehrbuch "Grundlagen der Mikroökonomik". Es bietet eine in dieser Form einzigartige und gründliche Einführung in die Mikroökonomik. Jedes Kapitel bietet eine Vielfalt an Übungen, von grundlegenden Multiple-Choice-Fragen bis hin zu herausfordernden mathematischen Problemen und Fallstudien. Das Lehrbuch ist durch zwei Besonderheiten gekennzeichnet. Erstens entwickelt es einen integrativen Ansatz, welcher die zentralen Ergebnisse der ökonomischen Forschung in einen größeren Erkenntniszusammenhang einbettet. Dabei werden Folgerungen für die Gestaltung des Rechtssystems ebenso wie für die Entwicklung von Unternehmensstrategien systematisch entwickelt, und die Theorien werden einer kritischen philosophischen Reflexion unterzogen sowie mit Vorstellungen der Sozialwissenschaften verglichen. Zweitens legt das Buch einen Schwerpunkt auf kurze sowie umfassende Fallstudien, die die Bedeutung der Theorien für die Praxis unterstreichen. In dieser zweiten Auflage des Arbeitsbuches werden die bisherigen Kapitel um neue Aufgaben ergänzt. Darüber hinaus finden sich Aufgaben zur traditionellen Entscheidungstheorie unter Risiko und Unsicherheit, zur Verhaltensökonomie sowie zu verhaltensrelevanten Erkenntnissen aus den Neurowissenschaften, der Evolutionspsychologie und der narrativen Psychologie.
Arbeitsgesundheit und Beziehungsqualität durch Mediation: Leitfaden zu Mediation als Soziale Heilkunde für Organisationen mit Praxisanleitung (essentials)
by Thomas SteinManchmal verstehen wir am Arbeitsplatz die Welt nicht mehr. Je besser wir es meinen, desto schwieriger scheint sich oft paradoxerweise das menschliche Miteinander zu entwickeln: Stress und lähmende Blockaden (Konflikte) im Miteinander saugen Energie, die dringend anderweitig gebraucht wird. Dem wirkt Mediation als professionell bewährtes und kulturübergreifend praktiziertes Konfliktlösungsverfahren gezielt entgegen. Denn: Mediation ist zukunftsgerichtet und kann kreative Lösungsansätze zeigen, die bislang kaum vorstellbar waren. Was das mit Arbeitsgesundheit und Beziehungsqualität zu tun hat, lernen Sie in diesem essential.
Arbeitsmarkttheorien: Eine ökonomisch-juristische Einführung (Physica-Lehrbuch)
by Werner Sesselmeier Lothar Funk Bernd WaasDas Lehrbuch bietet eine Einführung in die ökonomische und juristische Analyse der Institutionen und Abläufe auf dem Arbeitsmarkt sowie der Verhaltensweisen von Arbeitgebern und Arbeitnehmern. Der Leser erhält einen Überblick über die vielfältigen mikroökonomischen Ansätze und die empirisch-sozialwissenschaftlich fundierten segmentationstheoretischen Erklärungsmodelle. Besonderes Augenmerk wird auf die Rolle des Arbeitsrechts und die unterschiedlichen Einschätzungen von Ökonomie und Recht zu relevanten Sachverhalten gelegt. Indem auf mathematisch-modelltheoretische Darstellung weitgehend verzichtet wird, ermöglicht das Werk auch dem mit der mikroökonomischen Arbeitsweise weniger vertrauten Leser einen fundierten Einblick in die Funktionsweise von Arbeitsmärkten und wirtschaftspolitische Einflussmöglichkeiten. Durch gezielte Literaturhinweise zu den einzelnen Kapiteln erhält der interessierte Leser Ansatzpunkte für die weitergehende Beschäftigung mit dieser in der aktuellen Politik zentralen Thematik.
