The concept of supranational European citizenship has become one of
the core concepts of the EU?s unique polity. It has, however, been
one of the most difficult to actualise. This book examines the
challenges of, and barriers to, exercising full citizenship rights
for European citizens and considers how they might best be
overcome. Drawing on cutting-edge research from interdisciplinary
areas of study, this book examines the key issues surrounding EU
citizenship. Reflecting on the diversity of European societies, it
identifies, analyses and compares the many barriers that citizens
face to fully exercising their rights. With chapters examining key
issues from migration to democratic governance and social rights,
Moving Beyond Barriers critically analyzes concepts of citizenship
and the way that EU citizenship is politically, legally,
economically and socially institutionalised, and elaborates
alternatives to the current paths of realising EU citizenship.
Citizenship issues feature prominently in the European
policy-making agenda and the insights offered by this book will be
of benefit to those with an interest in EU law, social and public
policy and administration. Policy-makers and practitioners will
also benefit from the reflections on citizenship and the practical
guidance on how to move beyond current issues regarding EU
citizenship. Contributors include: B. Anderson, W. Bakker, V.

Twenty-five years after the introduction of European citizenship,
it seems as though the EU has overreached itself. In its current
state the EU provokes much negative political reaction among its
citizens. Conversely, interest in European issues has increased
during the crisis, pro-European social movements have emerged and
new debates on reforms of the Union?s architecture are flaring up.
Through updated and integrated multidisciplinary research this book
reconsiders the contradictions and constraints, as well as the
promises and prospects, for the future of EU citizenship. With
chapters from leading researchers in the field, Reconsidering EU
Citizenship is an innovative contribution to the lively debate on
European and transnational citizenship. Bringing together policy
research and reflections from political theory, this book offers an
up-to-date critique of the current state of EU citizenship as well
as new insights for its future. As citizenship rights issues become
more prominent on the EU policy-making agenda, Reconsidering EU
Citizenship will be an invaluable resource to students of EU policy
as well as policy-makers and practitioners in the field.

The book investigates the aesthetic theology embedded in the
Franciscan artistic tradition. The novelty of the approach is in
applying concepts gleaned from Franciscan textual sources to create
a deeper understanding of how art in all its sensual forms was
foundational to the Franciscan milieu. Chapters range from studies
of statements about aesthetics and the arts in theological textual
sources to examples of visual, auditory, and tactile arts
communicating theological ideas found in texts. The essays cover
not only European art and textual sources, but also Franciscan
influences in the Americas found in both texts and artifacts.
"GETTING THE RIGHT PEOPLE, IN THE RIGHT PLACE, AT THE RIGHT TIME,
WITH THE RIGHT MOTIVATION."
Tom Casey and his collaborators want ALL CEOs to appreciate the
imminent "Perfect Storm" of human capital change. As CEOs navigate
the unchartered waters of globalization, declining engagement, and
shifting demographics, they are seeing a dramatic imbalance between
talent needs and talent availability. As well, CEOs are confronted
with the difference in work styles and priorities of four
generations of employees and need to reconcile their distinct
aspirations to ensure maximum productivity. "Talent Readiness"
addresses the top ten human capital challenges of the new decade,
and provides immediate solutions to harness the unique skills and
attitudes of the new labor market.

Wir leben in einer Welt, in der die verschiedenen Kulturen und
Religionen zunehmend eine gemeinsame Antwort auf die ethischen
Fragen unseres Zusammenlebens finden mussen. Dieser Band leistet
deshalb zweierlei: Einerseits informiert er uber die ubergreifenden
ethischen Traditionen und Paradigmen in den Kulturregionen und in
den grosseren und kleineren Religionsgemeinschaften dieser Welt.
Andererseits versucht er, die Grundlagen bereitzustellen, die eine
volkerubergreifende Verstandigung uber die Grundfragen der Moral
ermoglichen konnen. Wer uber den Tellerrand eines ausschliesslich
im Westen entwickelten Diskurses hinausblicken und den
interkulturellen Dialog fruchtbar fuhren will, findet mit diesem
Band das unentbehrliche Hilfsmittel."
A beautifully illustrated volume which explores one of the central
themes of Christian Art: Christ as the Man of Sorrows, "Passion in
Venice: Crivelli to Tintoretto and Veronese" draws on works by some
of the of the greatest names in Venetian painting including
Veronese, Tintoretto, Crivelli, Giambono and the Bassano family. It
creates a new and illuminating context for these great masters by
considering their work alongside contemporary works in other media,
and from other parts of Western Europe, including Tuscany, France,
Spain, Germany and the Netherlands.
An essay by Catherine Puglisi and William Barcham explores the
origins of the image of Christ as Man of Sorrows and its emergence
as a distinct and central devotional image in the religious life of
Venice from about 1300. The authors address the questions of who
was the Man of Sorrows and why the figure grew significantly in
Venice during the late Middle Ages and the early Renaissance.
Xavier Seubert's essay focuses on the appeal of the Man of Sorrows
as an image expressing anguish, which encourages the viewer to
identify with suffering, and offers hope for deliverance and
redemption.
The main catalogue section presents illuminated manuscripts,
paintings, sculptures, prints, drawings and liturgical objects from
major American and European collections, including the Metropolitan
Museum of Art, New York, the National Gallery of Canada, the J Paul
Getty Center and the National Gallery, London, almost none of which
have been linked before through the study of a common artistic
theme.

Die Wirksamkeit Frederick Winslow Taylors bedeutet einen Markstein
in der industriellen Entwicklung der Vereinigten Staaten. Taylor
ist der erste Mann der Praxis gewesen, der dort die Aufgaben der
Fabrikorganisation in wissenschaftlicher Weise in Angriff genommen
hat. Durch die Eigenart des wirtschaftlichen Lebens in der neuen
Welt ist das Entstehen mustergiiltiger Fabrikorganisationen lange
hintan gehalten worden. Der unerschop Iich scheinende Reichtum des
Landes hat von Anfang an eine raubbauartige Ausniitzung der
Bodenschatze begiinstigt. Es ist erklarlich, daB die aus solchen
Gewohnheiten ent standene Auffassung von der zweckmaBigsten Form
geschaftlicher Tatigkeit auch in gewerblichen Unternehmungen
Geltung erlangte und sie lange Zeit bewahrte. So ist es gekommep,
daB das Land bei ungewohnlicher Ertragsfahigkeit sich durch einen
ungewohnlich ge ringen Wirkungsgrad der industriellen Tatigkeit
auszeichnet: das Wert verhaltnis des notigen zu dem wirklich
aufgewendeten Betriebskapital ist klein, und es ist jetzt noch die
Regel, daB dort Gewinne viel mehr durch kaufmannische Wagnisse als
durch griindliche Ausniitzung der Betriebsmittel erzielt werden.
Das Abnehmen der Rohstoffe zwingt Amerika mehr und mehr dazu, mit
den Gaben der Natur sparsamer umzugehen; ebenso erheischt der
steigende Wettbewerb in allen Unternehmungen gebieterisch eine Ver
ringerung der Selbstkosten."
