First published in 1993. The United Nations Conference on Environment and Development (UNCED) in Rio de Janeiro, in June 1992, was a unique event in the annals of international affairs. The 'Earth Summit' brought more heads of state and government together than any previous meeting, and five separate agreements were signed by most of the participating governments. It was billed as the world's greatest opportunity to resolve pressing problems of continuing poverty and environmental destruction and to set the world on a path of sustainable development. Thirty thousand people descended upon the city, and the Summit received a blaze of publicity around the world. Yet despite the vast efforts devoted to it, and the unprecedented press coverage which it received, to many the Earth Summit is still a mystery. The outcome has been labelled as everything from a disastrous fiasco to an outstanding success. Which was it; indeed, what was it? What came out of it? What was actually agreed, and what does it mean for the future of environment and development issues? This book presents a major summary and analysis of UNCED. It explains the background to the conference, its major achievements and disappointments, and the legacy which it has left. Individual chapters examine in detail each of the five main agreements signed at Rio, providing a short description of the negotiating background, analysis of the final text, and the likely implications. This title will be of great interest to students of environmental studies.

Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2005 im Fachbereich BWL - Investition und Finanzierung, Note: 1,7, Duale Hochschule Baden-Wurttemberg, Ravensburg, fruher: Berufsakademie Ravensburg, 17 Quellen im Literaturverzeichnis, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Welchen Wertebeitrag hat ein gutes Rating" zum Unternehmenserfolg? Viele Unternehmen gehen noch immer davon aus, dass sich allein durch Erfolge auf den Absatzmarkten ein unternehmerisches Vorwartskommen generieren lasst. Nicht zu bestreiten ist die Hohe Relevanz der Markterfolge fur ein Unternehmen. Jedoch ist zu beachten, dass ein Unternehmen nicht nur auf dem Absatzmarkt in Konkurrenz mit anderen Unternehmen steht. Letztendlich hangt der Erfolg eines Unternehmens von ausreichend guten Ergebnissen auf allen wesentlichen Markten, wie dem Absatzmarkt, dem Beschaffungsmarkt, dem Personalmarkt sowie dem Kapitalmarkt ab, auf welchen das Unternehmen agiert. Die Frage ist nun wie sich die Intensitat der einzelnen Markte fur ein Unternehmen tendenziell entwickelt. Es ist zu erkennen, dass gerade die Kapitalmarkte in den vergangenen Jahren durch den allgemeinen Trend zur Globalisierung tangiert wurden. Dies hat zur Folge, dass das Kapital sich die weltweit gunstigsten Investitionsmoglichkeiten sucht. Es gibt praktisch unendlich viele Investitionsmoglichkeiten, besonders wenn das Kapital knapp ist. Dort wo die hochste Rendite zu erwarten ist, wird daher, bei annahernd rationalen Entscheidungen und unter Berucksichtigung des jeweiligen Risikos, das Kapital eingesetzt. Die Anlagemoglichkeiten, die zu einer moglichst ausgepragten Steigerung des Kapitals beitragen, werden also vom Kapitalgeber gesucht. Dieser Vorgang wird auch als Paradigma der Wertorientierung bezeichnet. Es entsteht also ein Wettbewerb auf den Kapitalmarkten was gerade fur mittelstandische Unternehmen, welche nicht borsennotiert sind, ein Wettbewerb um eine ausreichende Versorgung mit Fremdkapital zu gunstigen Konditionen bedeutet. Es ist somit, gerade fur mittelstandische
