This volume analyzes sustainability-related innovations in the
building sector and discusses how regional contexts articulate
transition trajectories toward green building. It presents
'biographies' of drivers and processes of green building innovation
in four case studies: Brisbane (AUS), Freiburg (GER), Luxembourg
(LU), and Vancouver (CA). Two of them are relatively well known for
their initiatives to mitigate climate change - particularly in the
building sector, whereas the other two have only recently become
more active in promoting green building. The volume places emphasis
on development paths, learning processes, and innovations. The
focus of the case studies is not restricted to purely technological
aspects but also integrates regulatory, procedural, institutional,
and other processes and routines and their influence on the
variations of the building sector. The diversity of the selected
case studies offers the reader the opportunity to gain a thorough
understanding of how sustainability developments have unfolded in
different city regions. Case study-specific catalogues of
transition paths provide insights to inform policy debates and
planning processes. The catalogues identify crucial innovations
(technological, regulatory, etc.) and explain the factors and
circumstances that have led to their success and broader acceptance
in Freiburg, Vancouver, Luxembourg, and Brisbane. With the help of
a number of micro case studies within each of the four city
regions, the case studies also offer ground for comparison and
identification of differences. The book represents the outcome of
the GreenRegio project, which stands for 'Green building in
regional strategies for sustainability: multi-actor governance and
innovative building technologies in Europe, Australia, and Canada.'
GreenRegio was a 3-year CORE-INTER research project funded by the
National Research Fund Luxembourg (FNR) and the German Research
Foundation (DFG). Chapters 2, 3,10 are available open access under

Investments in Infrastruktur haben bei institutionellen Investoren
in den letzten Jahren zunehmend an Bedeutung gewonnen. Allerdings
ist zum Aufbau von Know-how in diesem Bereich kaum adaquate
Literatur verfugbar. Dieses Buch hat deshalb das Ziel, diese Lucke
durch eine sowohl wissenschaftliche als auch praxisorientierte
Darstellung zu schliessen. Dabei werden die unterschiedlichen
Einbindungsmoglichkeiten der Assetklasse Infrastruktur sowie auch
die fur Investmententscheidungen relevanten Aspekte vorgestellt."
Post-Growth Geographies examines the spatial relations of diverse
and alternative economies between growth-oriented institutions and
multiple socio-ecological crises. The book brings together
conceptual and empirical contributions from geography and its
neighbouring disciplines and offers different perspectives on the
possibilities, demands and critiques of post-growth transformation.
Through case studies and interviews, the contributions combine
voices from activism, civil society, planning and politics with
current theoretical debates on socio-ecological transformation.
Die in diesem Buch prasentierte Studie befasst sich mit der Frage,
welcher Zusammenhang zwischen der Bereitschaft besteht, in der
COVID-19-Pandemie anderen Menschen in deren Lebensvollzug zu helfen
und der Furcht vor dem Tod durch COVID-19. Das Buch gibt eine
Antwort auf die Frage nach "Solidaritat in der Krise". Im Rahmen
einer Vignettenstudie werden Einwohner*innen Deutschlands mittels
Online-Fragebogen zu soziodemographischen sowie situationsbezogenen
Eigenschaften und ihren jeweiligen Vignettenurteilen befragt.
Die Steuerung der Patientenbehandlung in der Palliativversorgung
erfolgt durch Assessmentinstrumente. Sie erfassen den Zustand des
Patienten, seine Symptome, Bedurfnisse und erleichtern die weitere
Planung. Eine gelungene Verwendung derartiger Instrumente
beinhaltet, dass sie gultig, sensibel und zuverlassig sind. Diesem
Nachweis dient die Instrumententestung. Am Beispiel von Assessments
der Palliativversorgung wird in diesem Band eine solche Testung
vorgefuhrt, erlautert und reflektiert.
Professionelle Mitarbeiter der Palliative Care mussen schwierige
ethische Entscheidungen verantworten. Die Werthaltung, die in den
Entscheidungen zur Geltung kommt, ist davon anhangig, ob sich die
Mitarbeiter ihrer eigenen Sterblichkeit bewusst sind. Diese
Annahme, die der Terror-Management-Theory entstammt, wird anhand
der Problematik der Toetung auf Verlangen durch die Methode der
randomisiert-kontrollierten Studie untersucht.

Um einen Einblick in die Selbstsicht von Patienten am Lebensende
zu erlangen, wurden die Patienten gebeten, mit Studierenden zu
sprechen. Es zeigte sich, dass Palliativpatienten die Moglichkeit
zu Gesprachen mit Studierenden schatzen. Die Ergebnisse dieser
Gesprache wurden mit der Methode der "Qualitativen Inhaltsanalyse"
nach Philip Mayring ermittelt. Entsprechende Daten lieferten dabei
die Texte von semistrukturierten Tiefeninterviews, die durch die
Qualitative Inhaltsanalyse induktiv kodiert worden sind. Die
AutorInnen stellen die Methode vor, reflektieren sie und beobachten
sie abschliessend bei der Durchfuhrung.

The new German fee system for psychiatry and psychosomatics was
introduced in 2010 in a law on hospital finance. In-patient
treatments are now coded using surgical and procedural codes.
Driven by the need to introduce the new charging system in their
own hospital with neither examples nor software, the authors
developed their own ideas, training courses and tools. This book is
aimed primarily at users but also contributes discussion material
for those involved in medical management accounting and coding. It
is oriented towards doctors' daily work routines and explains to
the reader how to understand the new fee system and how to record
and code treatments.
Hier erfahren Sie, wie Sie im Firmenkundengeschaft auch auf
globalisierten Markten erfolgreich bleiben.
A career in hospitality can be both challenging and rewarding, but
it is hardly ever boring. Workers in this field must be
service-oriented and enjoy working with people. Although
hospitality jobs are affected by the ups and downs of the economy,
travel is commonplace in modern society and essential for many
businesses, contributing to steady opportunities for hospitality
workers.
Hospitality looks at three core sectors of this industry:
lodging, restaurants, and gaming. It explains how these businesses
work, what opportunities they provide, and what it takes to
succeed. Written in clear, accessible language, this new resource
covers the full scope of hospitality careers, including tips for
success, an in-depth glossary, and current and future trends.
