He considers the aesthetic and entrepreneurial innovations that established the conditions for the rise of the graphic novel all over the world. Garcia not only treats the formal components of the art, but also examines the cultural position of comics in various formats as a popular medium. Typically associated with children, often viewed as unedifying and even at times as a threat to moral character, comics art has come a long way. With such examples from around the world as Spain, France, Germany, and Japan, Garcia illustrates how the graphic novel, with its increasingly global and aesthetically sophisticated profile, represents a new model for graphic narrative production that empowers authors and challenges longstanding social prejudices against comics and what they can achieve.

Organizational management, along with strategy, is the most important part of business administration. Directors must know how to manage people, make decisions and, above all, have the ability to create strategies that help organizations achieve their objectives, greater strategic competitiveness, and above-average returns. In today's global and complex environment, traditional views towards organizational management are not enough for businesses to thrive. It's only by bringing together different approaches can management styles develop fast enough to keep pace with the ever-changing big picture. In this innovative new look at organizational management, expert authors Santiago Garcia-Alvarez and Connie Atristain-Suarez explore how looking through lenses of philosophy, health, communication, law, engineering, pedagogy and policy can affect a modern organization's prospects. Built through the collective and collaborative work of the research professors at the Universidad Panamericana, this work includes interdisciplinary approaches to real-world problems. For students and researchers of business and management, this is an unmissable read.

SANTIAGO GARCIA and DAVID RUBIN unite to bring forward the myth of Beowulf, which has endured for a thousand years, inspired an epic poem, become a foundational piece of English literature, and influenced generations of authors: from J.R.R. Tolkien and Seamus Heaney to a multitude of Hollywood screenwriters. BEOWULF tells of the tale of a Scandinavian hero in lands that would become what is now Denmark and Sweden. A monster, Grendel, has arrived in the kingdom of the Danes, devouring its men and women for over a decade until Beowulf arrives to save them. GARCIA and RUBIN faithfully follow the original story for a new version that is neither revisionist nor postmodern, but captures the tone and important details of the poem, translating its potent, epic resonance and melancholy into a contemporary comic that isn't standard swords and sorcery or heroic fantasy fare, but rather an ancient story with a modern perspective that remains respectful of the source material.

Sustainable and Environmentally Friendly Dairy Farms presents an innovative environmental proposal. While chiefly focusing on dairy farms, the environmental solution it describes is applicable to the entire livestock sector. The book is divided into five chapters, the first of which addresses the carbon footprint of dairy farms. Chapter two provides an overview of the animal production system, focusing on the physiology of the ruminant stomach and the greenhouse gases emitted by dairy cows. In turn, the third chapter covers dairy farm systems, explaining both intensive and extensive husbandry systems. The book's final two chapters present the-state-of-art in CO2 capture, and describe a new and innovative CO2-RFP strategy. Given its scope, the book will be of interest to chemists, biologists, biotechnologists, and researchers active in agriculture and food-related areas, as well as those working in the food and dairy industry.

This book is a compilation of twenty essays prepared for the occasion of the XIII Academic Conference of the Constitutional Court of the Republic of Colombia, held in Bogota in January 2019. Gathering some of the most prominent authors in constitutionalism and legal theory, the chapters critically examine classical debates, such as the role of judicial review in a democracy, the enforcement of socio-economic rights, the doctrine of unconstitutional amendments, the use of international and foreign precedents by national Courts, and the theory of transitional justice. The book opens a dialogue between philosophers and empirical researchers, building bridges between 'Global North' and 'Global South' approaches to constitutionalism. As such, it is an invitation to reengage with the classical debates on constitutionalism whilst also providing fresh insights into the future of this discipline.

Die wirtschaftliche Integration Europas ist mit der Verwirklichung der Euro paischen Wirtschaftsgemeinschaft in ein neues Stadium getreten. Der okono mische Einfluss sowie der politische und soziale Sog der Gemeinschaft greift uber die Mitgliedstaaten hinaus und zieht alle Staaten Europas in seinen Bann. Die Dynamik der Europaischen Wirtschaftsgemeinschaft hat auch Spanien dazu gebracht, seine Stellung in Europa neu zu uberdenken. Die integrierende Kraft der EWG hat es diesem traditionsreichen Lande erleich tert, seine Isolierung aufzugeben, seine Abkapselung von der wirtschaftlichen und sozialen Entwicklung in Europa zu durchbrechen und nach einem neuen und produktiven Ansatz fur seine europaische Aufgabe zu suchen. Es ist be zeichnend fur die Situation des heutigen Spaniens, dass diese Integrations effekte speziell durch wirtschaftliche Faktoren ausgelost werden. Die vor liegende Schrift eines spanischen Verfassers, die in dem Institut fur Aussen wirtschaft der Universitat zu Koln erarbeitet wurde, verdeutlicht den not wendigen Bruckenschlag zwischen der europaischen Integration zu der wirt schaftlichen und sozialen Entwicklung Spaniens. Koln, den 28. Februar 1964 Prof. Dr. K. Ringel Geschaftsfuhrender Direktor des Instituts fur Aussenwirtschaft der Universitat zu Koln Direktor der Bundesstelle fur Aussenhandelsinformation EINLEITUNG Seit der Unterzeichnung des Vertrages von Rom am 25.
