The post-Yugoslav states have developed very differently since Yugoslavia dissolved in the early 1990s. This book analyzes the foreign policies of the post-Yugoslav states, thereby focusing on the main goals, actors, decision-making processes and influences on the foreign policies of these countries.
History lies beneath our feet and in the landscapes around us. In contrast to the history that comes from studying texts, archaeology is the study of history through objects, monuments, and other traces of past lives: history that extends beyond the earliest writings into the deep past, revealing the varied pathways that led to the present, and the challenges - often similar to those we face today - that confronted our ancestors. Ann Stahl argues that archaeology is unique in its focus on the everyday lives of all peoples in all places and times. From ancient temples to humble homes, archaeologists piece together worlds that would otherwise be lost: knowledge that shows us how routine actions have shaped societies, how and why societies have changed in light of environment, politics, and culture - and perhaps what the future holds for our societies too. Using compelling examples from a storied international career, Stahl provides the perfect summary of why archaeology is both a vitally important and enjoyable subject to study.

Geleitwort Mit dem Listing der Daimler-Benz AG (heute DaimlerChrysler AG) im Jahr 1993 an der New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) und der damit verbundenen Entscheidung, neben dem Konzem- abschluB nach HGB einen parallelen KonzemabschluB nach US-GAAP aufzustellen (zunachst noch in Form einer Uberleitungsrechnung von Eigenkapital und Jahresergebnis, spater dann als vollen US-GAAP-AbschluB), wurde in Deutschland ein Paradigmenwechsel innerhalb der Konzernrechnungslegung hin zu intemationalen Standards - d. h. im Einzelnen den lAS bzw. den US-GAAP - eingeleitet. Diese Entwicklung wurde durch verschiedene Faktoren ausgelost, wie beispielsweise einen wachsenden Kapitalbedarf, der auf dem heimischen deutschen Markt nicht gedeckt werden konnte, dem Wunsch nach einer Verbreiterung der Investorenbasis, dem Ziel, intemationale Ubemahmen in Form von Share Deals durchzufUhren, oder auch der Ab- sicht, das eigene Untemehmen nicht nur tiber die realwirtschaftliche Leistungserstellung, son- dem auch als Anlageobjekt international bekannt zu machen. In den Folgejahren wurde die Durchsetzung intemationaler Standards im KonzemabschluB kapitalmarktorientierter Untemehmen - d. h. soJcher, die einen regulierten Markt zur Aufuah- me von Eigen-oder Fremdkapital selbst bzw. tiber ein Tochteruntemehmen in Anspruch neh- men - durch verschiedene regulatorische Neuerungen forciert. Dazu gehorte die Griindung des Neuen Marktes an der Frankfurter Wertpapierborse im Jahr 1997, der per privatrechtlicher Vereinbarung von den notierten Untemehmen die Vorlage von Konzernabschltissen nach lAS oder US-GAAP zwingend fordert (diese Praxis wurde spater fUr andere Segmente, wie z.
