A detailed study of the role and legacy of weaving at the legendary Black Mountain College   In the mid-twentieth century, Black Mountain College attracted a remarkable roster of artists, architects, and musicians. Yet the weaving classes taught by Anni Albers, Trude Guermonprez, and six other faculty members are rarely mentioned or are often treated as mere craft lessons. This was far from the case: the weaving program was the school’s most sophisticated and successful design program. About ten percent of all Black Mountain College students took at least one class in weaving, including specialists like textile designers Lore Kadden Lindenfeld and Else Regensteiner, as well as students from other disciplines, like artists Ray Johnson and Robert Rauschenberg and architects Don Page and Claude Stoller. Drawing upon a wealth of unpublished material and archival photographs, Weaving at Black Mountain College rewrites history to show how weaving played a much larger role in the legendary art and design curriculum than previously assumed.   The book illustrates dozens of objects from private and public collections, many of which have never been shown in this context. Essays explore connections and networks fostered by Black Mountain weavers; the ways in which weaving at the college was linked to larger discourses about weaving and craft; and Bauhaus influences transmitted by way of Anni Albers. The book also includes works by five contemporary artists that connect and respond to the legacy of weaving at Black Mountain College today.   Distributed for the Black Mountain College Museum + Arts Center   Exhibition Schedule   Black Mountain College Museum + Arts Center, Asheville, NC (September 29, 2023–January 6, 2024)

This book covers the recent history of Chinese monetary policy. While most current work focuses on This book traces and explains the evolution of Chinese monetary policy in the years before 2008. The turn towards interest rate deregulation and market-oriented policy in China in recent years is often seen as a break with former command-and-control policy norms, in favour of Western central banking norms. We argue that Chinese monetary policy already went through a transformation under the influence of 'new consensus' macroeconomics after 1998, but that this surprisingly led to increased reliance on direct banking controls in the 2000s. Therefore, many of the controls that look to many like a remnant of central planning are in fact an outcome of an earlier attempt to 'rationalise' monetary policy, in unusual Chinese conditions. Specifically, policy returned to direct controls because of an underdeveloped interbank money market, and a glut of bank liquidity associated with enormous foreign exchange inflows in the mid-2000s.

Diplomarbeit aus dem Jahr 2004 im Fachbereich Gerontologie / Alterswissenschaften, Note: 1,3, Universitat Vechta; fruher Hochschule Vechta (unbekannt, Interdisziplinare Gerontologie), Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Inhaltsangabe: Zusammenfassung: Vor dem Hintergrund steigender Kosten in der stationaren Pflege setzt sich die Diplomarbeit mit der Frage auseinander, ob die Versorgungsstrukturen fur pflegebedurftige Menschen vielfaltiger gestaltet werden mussen, um den Bedurfnissen und Wunschen alter werdender Menschen gerecht zu werden. Mit Blick auf die demografische Entwicklung wird ein besonderer Augenmerk auf die Betreuungs- und Versorgungsmoglichkeit von Menschen mit Demenz zu werfen, da das Wohnen als eines der zentralen Grundanliegen des Menschen auch Auswirkungen auf die Moglichkeiten der pflegerischen Versorgung und Betreuung hat. Wie wohnen Menschen mit Demenz? Wie mochten Menschen mit Demenz leben? Ist die bestehende Versorgungsstruktur hinsichtlich des Wohnens und der in der jeweiligen Wohnform moglichen Versorgung ausreichend oder muss sie erganzt bzw. modifiziert werden? Welchen Herausforderungen haben sich Pflegeanbieter sowie die kommunale Gebietskorperschaft als fur die Versorgungsstrukturen verantwortliche Institution zu stellen, um eine angemessene und an den Bedurfnissen der Pflegebedurftigen und ihrer Angehorigen ausgerichtete Infrastruktur sicherzustellen? Dies ist nur ein Ausschnitt aus dem Fragenkatalog, dem sich die Sozialplanung und die Leistungsanbieter zu stellen haben und denen es sich nachzugehen lohnt. Dabei ist, angesichts leerer kommunaler Kassen, nicht die Darstellung kostentrachtiger aber unerfullbarer Wunschlosungen angezeigt, sondern eine realistische Sicht der Dinge, um dann, trotz ungunstiger wirtschaftlicher Rahmenbedingungen dem gesetzlichen Auftrag gerecht zu werden und eine vielfaltige, an den Bedurfnissen der Betroffenen ausgerichtete Versorgungsstruktur zu schaffen bzw. sicherzustellen. Ausgehend von der bestehenden Pflegeinfra
