Sustainable development will not happen without substantial contributions from and leading roles of companies and business organizations. This requires the provision of adequate information on corporate social and ecological impacts and performance. For the last decade, progress has been made in developing and adapting accounting mechanisms to these needs but significant work is still needed to tackle the problems associated with conventional accounting. Until recently, research on environmental management accounting (EMA) has concentrated on developed countries and on cost-benefit analysis of implementing individual EMA tools. Using a comparative case study design, this book seeks to redress the balance and improve the understanding of EMA in management decision-making in emerging countries, focussing specifically on South-East Asian companies. Drawing on 12 case studies, taken from a variety of industries, Environmental Management Accounting: Case Studies of South-East Asian Companies explores the relationship between decision situations and the motivation for, and barriers to, the application of clusters of EMA tools as well as the implementation process itself. This book will be useful to scholars interested in the environmental and sustainability management accounting research field and those considering specific approaches to EMA within emerging economies.
Sustainability performance measurement and communication play a central role in supporting the implementation of the sustainability strategy, embedding sustainability into day-to-day operations and decision making, and developing relationships with stakeholders based on trust, transparency, and legitimacy. The purpose of this book is to explore new challenges and new prospects for sustainability accounting research and to discuss future directions of research. It considers a large spectrum of different theoretical lenses and research methods, and explores various types of organizational settings and practices in different countries. This book brings together articles that consider the main areas of accounting: financial accounting, auditing and managerial accounting, in order to critically review and advance theorizations and methodological applications to the study of all main accounting fields in a sustainability context. It aims to interest a quite large number of active researchers, professors and practitioners (CPAs and CMAs, managers and executives, but also consultants), both from the accounting field, and from the sustainability and CSR domains.

Eike Christian Herzig geht der Frage nach, welchen Einfluss die Philosophie Martin Heideggers auf das Theologieverstandnis von Heinrich Ott und Eberhard Jungel zu Beginn der 1960er Jahre hatte. Ihre theologische Auseinandersetzung uber die Bedeutung der Seinsphilosophie Heideggers zeugt von einem Ringen um ein theologisches Selbstverstandnis zwischen existenzieller Orientierung und christlichem Glauben. Dazu wird Heideggers Werk unter bestimmten Aspekten untersucht: Seine UEberlegungen zur Philosophie Friedrich Nietzsches, zur Dichtung Hoelderlins und zu fruhgriechischen Denkern loten das kritische Verhaltnis zur Theologie in einer Weise aus, die als "antitheologisch" bezeichnet werden kann. Welche Spannungen und Erkenntnisse ein konstruktiver Umgang mit dieser Philosophie fur die Theologie bereithalt, belegen die Interpretationen Otts und Jungels, die in dieser Arbeit eingehend analysiert werden.
Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2004 im Fachbereich Germanistik - Linguistik, Note: 1, Ludwig-Maximilians-Universitat Munchen (Institut fur Deutsche Philologie), Veranstaltung: Einfuhrung in die Dialektologie, Sprache: Deutsch, Anmerkungen: Diese Arbeit beschaftigt sich mir der meist vorurteilshaft beladenen Bewertung des Dialekts. Sie zeigt dabei, dass das Hoch- oder Standarddeutsche neben den Dialekten eine Varietat wie jede andere auch ist. Wahrend dieser die Qualitat des Normhaften eignet, zeichnet sich der Dialekt durch seine regional gepragte 'naturliche' Entstehung aus. Die Arbeit geht den gangigen (Vor-)Urteilen nach und sichtet die Argumente, die dem Dialekt auf Grund seiner vermeintlichen Mangelhaftigkeit gemacht werden., Abstract: Diese Arbeit beschaftigt sich mir der meist vorurteilshaft beladenen Bewertung des Dialekts. Sie zeigt dabei, dass das Hoch- oder Standarddeutsche neben den Dialekten eine Varietat wie jede andere auch ist. Wahrend dieser die Qualitat des Normhaften eignet, zeichnet sich der Dialekt durch seine regional gepragte 'naturliche' Entstehung aus. Die Arbeit geht den gangigen (Vor-)Urteilen nach und sichtet die Argumente, die dem Dialekt auf Grund seiner vermeintlichen Mangelhaftigkeit gemacht werden.
