Sequel to the successful sci-fi-cop, comedy-drama. Some four years after the Men in Black averted a major intergalactic disaster, K (Tommy Lee Jones) has returned to a civilian life, working as a postman and quite unaware of his former heroics alongside Agent J (Will Smith). But when J uncovers a secret alien plot organised by the seemingly seductive Serleena (Lara Flynn Boyle) he has to call on K again. Unfortunately K has no memory of his former role as 'Saver-of-the-World', but somewhere in his head is the expertise that can save the Earth, if only J can get him onside in time.

This timely book explores the likely success or failure of potential transport innovations. Chapters examine societally relevant effects of transport transitions, including impacts on the environment, accessibility, safety and more. It focuses on complex innovations in which both public and private actors are involved. Combining insights from innovation sciences with evolutionary economics, business economics, managerial sciences, psychology and history, the chapters consider state-of-the-art innovation theories applied to sustainable transport, with an emphasis on approaches to understanding behaviour. The book then explores a range of potential transitions, covering technological innovations such as vehicle electrification, e-bikes and light electric vehicles in city logistics, before moving on to look at service innovations including carsharing, mobility as a service and e-shopping. Offering coverage of both frameworks and innovation examples themselves, this book will be an interesting read for transport studies and innovation scholars. It will also be a useful tool for policy makers and planners working in the area.

This comprehensive Companion is a unique guide to the Hague Conference on Private International Law (HCCH), an intergovernmental organisation dedicated to developing multilateral legal instruments pertaining to personal, family and commercial legal situations that cross national borders. The Companion is a critical assessment of, and reflection on, past and possible future contributions of the HCCH to the further development and unification of private international law. Written by international experts who have all directly or indirectly contributed to the work of the HCCH, chapters analyse its structure and working methods, as well as explore its significant achievements in the areas of international family law, civil procedure, legal cooperation, commercial and finance law. The contributors also discuss the many challenges both the HCCH and other global organisations are facing, including the advent of regionalism and renewed nationalism. Scholars and students of private international law, as well as private legal practitioners and members of the judiciary, will find this book to be crucial reading. Those working at other international organisations such as NGOs, banks and businesses will also find its insights into the workings of a successful international organisation beneficial.

Für Führungskräfte ist Führen eine berufliche Tätigkeit. Allerdings haben die wenigsten eine sehr konkrete Vorstellung davon. Dieses Buch entwirft mit den drei Teilen Führungsverständnis, Führungsalltag und Führungsstrategie ein umfassendes professionelles Selbstverständnis. Es geht darum, ein realistisches und funktionales Managementbild jenseits von Klischees und Modekonzepten zu vermitteln. Dabei steht die praktische Umsetzbarkeit im Vordergrund: Was genau ist zu tun? Worauf kommt es in der Praxis an? Theoretische Grundlage dafür ist das Modell der Komplementären Führung. Führungskräfte wirken im Wesentlichen durch andere, nämlich ihre Mitarbeiterinnen und Mitarbeiter. Sie sollten dabei primär auf deren Selbststeuerung setzen, aber im Bedarfsfall kompensierend eingreifen. Bezugspunkt dafür sind die vielfältigen Aufgabenstellungen, Aktivitäten und Instrumente ganzheitlicher Personalführung, die das Modell zu einem Gesamtkonzept integriert. Allgemeinverständlich und mit zahlreichen Praxistipps, das Werk richtet sich an alle, die Führen als Arbeit verstehen und sich zum Ziel gesetzt haben, ihre Organisationseinheit und deren Mitglieder erfolgreich zu machen.
