A Democracy That Works argues that rather than corporate donations, Republican gerrymandering and media manipulation, the conservative ascendancy reflects the reconstruction of the rules that govern work that has disempowered workers. Using six historical case studies from the emergence of the New Deal, and its later overtaking by the conservative neoliberal agenda, to today's intersectional social justice movements, Stephen Amberg deploys situated institutional analysis to show how real actors created the rules that empowered liberal democracy for 50 years and then how Democrats and Republicans undermined democracy by changing those rules, thereby organizing working-class people out of American politics. He draws on multidisciplinary studies to argue that when employees are organized to participate at work, they are also organized to participate in politics to press for accountable government. In doing so, the book opens up analytical space to understand the unprecedented threat to liberal democracy in the U.S. A Democracy That Works is a fresh account of the crisis of democracy that illuminates how historical choices about the role of workers in the polity shaped America's liberal democracy during the 20th century. It will appeal to scholars of American politics and American political development, labor and social movements, democracy and comparative politics.

Now adopted by over 40 states, the Common Core State Standards provide a clear and consistent framework for public school systems as they develop student learning goals that define the path to readiness for college, careers, and informed citizenship. While each state is developing its own procedures for adoption of the Standards, individual teachers will continue to hold the ultimate responsibility for devising lesson plans and tailoring instruction to meet these benchmarks. Making Language Matter will help prospective and practicing teachers develop lessons to meet the benchmarks enumerated in the Standards for the English Language Arts categories: language, speaking and listening, writing, and reading. A timely text for literacy education courses, it explores language topics within these categories and suggests pedagogical approaches and activities for use in 9-12 language arts classrooms. Using a linguistics approach to unify the study of all the language arts, it engages readers in learning how to help students make purposeful language choices essential for both academic and workplace success.

Corporate entrepreneurship involves new business creation within established companies, the strategic renewal of existing business, and, ultimately, the search for sustainable competitive advantage in an increasingly globalised economy. Yet it remains elusive for many firms. In a collaboration between a practitioner and academic, Joe J. Amberg and Sara L. McGaughey explore corporate entrepreneuring within a large conglomerate multinational enterprise: Siemens AG. In early 2009, following a prolonged period of business stagnation and a huge bribery scandal, Siemens' top management identified a severe lack of entrepreneurship as a critical issue. The strengthening of 'local entrepreneurship' became a new priority in the strategic planning for 2010 to 2014. By examining three contrasting ventures in the Siemens business unit Fire Safety between 2008 and 2012, the authors identify key drivers and impediments that sustain inertia in corporate entrepreneuring within this global organisation. This study offers an insightful contribution to our growing - yet still fledgling - understanding of corporate entrepreneurship in global corporations, highlighting the importance of context, interdependencies between critical factors, and the false promise of universal best practice.

Groups that are the product of two subgroups are of particular interest to group theorists. In what way is the structure of the product related to that of its subgroups? This monograph gives the first detailed account of the most important results that have been found about groups of this form over the past 35 years. Although the emphasis is on infinite groups, some relevant theorems about finite products of groups are also proved. The material presented will be of interest for research students and specialists in group theory. In particular, it can be used in seminars or to supplement a general group theory course. A special chapter on conjugacy and splitting theorems obtained by means of the cohomology of groups has never appeared in book form and should be of independent interest.

Martin Wiener develops a model that comprises 29 critical success factors which are classified into four distinct groups: internal suitability, internal management, external suitability, and external management factors. He shows that the external management factors are particularly relevant for the successful implementation of an offshore software development project and that the perception of the individual critical success factors greatly depends on the company perspective.

This lively introduction to the study of language explores American English and its place within contemporary society, highlighting the role of language in our daily lives. Beginning with a definition of language, the text unpacks the basic concepts used in linguistics, placing them in the context of real-life situations. Using examples from popular culture, the authors show how the study of language is relevant to students' experience. Teachers and students will appreciate the book's innovative structure, designed to build an understanding of how different aspects of language work together. A variety of exercises - individual, group, discussion, research - is provided to support every teaching style. Imaginatively organised and fun to use, American English is the ideal guide to language study for students taking the subject as a general education requirement, beginning undergraduates in linguistics, and future teachers of English.

Vor 500 Jahren, 1516, erschien Thomas Morus' "Utopia". Der Text machte Furore. Er begrundete eine politisch-literarische Gattung und wurde zum Namensgeber einer Tradition des politischen Denkens. Im Laufe der funf Jahrhunderte mehrfach totgesagt, hat sich die Utopie immer wieder erneuert und ist nach wie vor lebendig. Ihre Formen reichen vom klassischen Staatsroman uber Architektur, Film und Musik bis zu konkreten Umsetzungsversuchen als gelebte Utopie; ihre Intentionen von Kritik uber politische Manifeste bis hin zu dystopischen Warnungen. In dieser Festschrift zum 75. Geburtstag des Utopieforschers Richard Saage werden die Gattung Utopie und ihre Geschichte aus unterschiedlichen Perspektiven betrachtet: ausgehend von der "Utopia" bis hin zu gegenwartigen Utopien und Dystopien.

Martina Amberg legt in diesem essential dar, was sich hinter dem Begriff und dem Konzept "Achtsamkeit" verbirgt, und umreisst Moeglichkeiten, die sich dadurch im Fuhrungskontext ergeben. Sie zeigt, dass Selbstkompetenz, Beziehungskompetenz und Veranderungskompetenz die Ebenen sind, die Fuhrungskrafte fur sich weiterentwickeln mussen, um zukunftsfahige Fuhrungskompetenz zu erlangen. Eine zentrale Bedeutung kommt hierbei Achtsamkeit zu als innerer Haltung der offenen, nichtwertenden Aufmerksamkeit, die bewusst auf den gegenwartigen Augenblick gelenkt wird. Globalisierung, technologische Entwicklungen und veranderte gesellschaftliche Rahmenbedingungen haben in den letzten Jahren Dynamik und Komplexitat in Gesellschaft und Wirtschaft deutlich erhoeht. Dadurch kommen klassische Fuhrungskonzepte zunehmend an ihre Grenzen. Fuhrung neu zu denken und zu gestalten, wird daher zu einer zentralen Bedingung fur die Zukunftsfahigkeit von Unternehmen und Organisationen.

"Aus Tradition in die Zukunft", der Wahlspruch der Universitat Heidelberg anlaBlich ihres Bestehens tiber sechs lahrhunderte, gilt in gleichem MaBe fUr die Chirurgische Klinik dieser Uni- versitat. Gedanken, Erfahrungen und Entwicklungen auf dem Gebiet der Krebsforschung und Krebsbehandlung in Heidelberg sind auch heute Triebfedern fUr eine Vielzahl von Arbeitsschwer- punkten und Projekten in der Onkologie und hier vor allen Dingen in der chirurgischen Onkologie. Die in dieser historischen Skizze der Krebschirurgie in Heidelberg geschilderten wichtigen Beitrage sind bei den heutigen Oberlegungen immer wieder gegen- wartig. So bildet die Leitidee von Czerny einer interdisziplinaren multimodalen Therapie - urn die lahrhundertwende konzi- piert - auch heute ein entscheidendes Arbeitskonzept. Die enge Kooperation mit dem von Karl Heinrich Bauer gegrtindeten Deutschen Krebsforschungszentrum liefert beste Voraussetzungen fUr ein kooperatives Planen und Arbeiten, urn neue Akzente und Perspektiven in der Krebschirurgie zu setzen. Das heutige Spektrum der Krebschirurgie reicht von den rein technisch chirurgischen Fragen der Ersatzorganbildung von Magen, Speiser6hre und Mastdarm tiber die Erprobung multi- modaler Therapieverfahren bei Carcinomerkrankungen, wie z. B. dem Speiser6hrenkrebs oder dem Rektum- und Analcarcinom zu Modellversuchen tiber Rezidiv und Metastasenentstehung, -verhiitung und -bekiimpfung. So ist auch die Rezidiv- und Metastasenchirurgie ein Schwerpunkt der aktuellen Krebschirurgie in Heidelberg. Praventive Chirurgie bei Priikanzerosen, wie z. B. der Colitis ulcerosa oder dem Barret-Oesophagus, spielen eine ebenso wichtige Rolle wie Oberlegungen zur Einschrankung der v Radikalitat bei verschiedenen Carcinomeingriffen oder zur Rationalisierung und Systematisierung der Lymphknotenchirur- gie.
