The Shiites of Lebanon under Ottoman Rule provides an original perspective on the history of the Shiites as a constituent of Lebanese society. Winter presents a history of the community before the 19th century, based primarily on Ottoman Turkish documents. From these, he examines how local Shiites were well integrated in the Ottoman system of rule, and that Lebanon as an autonomous entity only developed in the course of the 18th century through the marginalization and then violent elimination of the indigenous Shiite leaderships by an increasingly powerful Druze-Maronite emirate. As such the book recovers the Ottoman-era history of a group which has always been neglected in chronicle-based works, and in doing so, fundamentally calls into question the historic place within 'Lebanon' of what has today become the country's largest and most activist sectarian community.
The new form of timber construction is hybrid! Timber construction is booming, not only because it is environmentally friendly: building in timber is gaining increasing importance particularly in an urban and multistorey setting. Material-optimized hybrid construction makes it possible to leave stereotyped thinking behind, while opening up completely new opportunities for timber architecture. The completely revised and extended edition of this manual conveys essential knowledge about the system and methodology of timber construction - from design and prefabrication to assembly on site. It creates a mutual understanding of all parties involved in the project required for collaboration in the integral planning and building process. It furthermore provides the technical competence needed for a convincing representation of modern timber construction.
The 'Alawis, or Alawites, are a prominent religious minority in northern Syria, Lebanon, and southern Turkey, best known today for enjoying disproportionate political power in war-torn Syria. In this book, Stefan Winter offers a complete history of the community, from the birth of the 'Alawi (Nusayri) sect in the tenth century to just after World War I, the establishment of the French mandate over Syria, and the early years of the Turkish republic. Winter draws on a wealth of Ottoman archival records and other sources to show that the 'Alawis were not historically persecuted as is often claimed, but rather were a fundamental part of Syrian and Turkish provincial society. Winter argues that far from being excluded on the basis of their religion, the 'Alawis were in fact fully integrated into the provincial administrative order. Profiting from the economic development of the coastal highlands, particularly in the Ottoman period, they fostered a new class of local notables and tribal leaders, participated in the modernizing educational, political, and military reforms of the nineteenth century, and expanded their area of settlement beyond its traditional mountain borders to emerge from centuries of Sunni imperial rule as a bona fide sectarian community. Using an impressive array of primary materials spanning nearly ten centuries, A History of the 'Alawis provides a crucial new narrative about the development of 'Alawi society.

Aufgrund der sinkenden Fertigungs- und Entwicklungstiefe in Unternehmen steigt die Bedeutung der Lieferanten als Innovationsquelle. Lieferanteninnovationen konnen zum Unternehmenserfolg beitragen, indem Kosten, Qualitat und Punktlichkeit der Produkte verbessert werden. Stefan Winter zeigt auf, wie Lieferanteninnovationen in Unternehmen eingebracht und bewertet werden konnen. Der Autor beschreibt Moglichkeiten und Voraussetzungen fur das Einbringen von Lieferanteninnovationen und stellt eine Bewertungsmethodik basierend auf theoretisch und empirisch hergeleiteten Anforderungen an die Bewertung vor. Ein ausfuhrliches Fallbeispiel illustriert die Anwendung der Bewertungsmethodik in der Praxis."
Holz eignet sich fast uneingeschrankt fur den Einsatz im mehrgeschossigen Hochbau. Das ist neu und bedarf eines kreativen Umgangs mit der bisher praktizierten Holzbaukonstruktion: Anstelle klassischer Kategorisierungen treten bedarfsorientiert Mischbauweisen innerhalb eines Projektes. Damit eroeffnen sich fur die Holzbauarchitektur voellig neue Moeglichkeiten. Der Atlas vermittelt Architekten, Ingenieuren und Holzfachleuten die wesentlichen Fachkenntnisse zur neuen Systematik und Konstruktionsmethodik vom Entwurf uber die Vorfertigung bis hin zur Fugung vor Ort. Er schafft gegenseitiges Verstandnis bei allen Projektbeteiligten fur die noetige Zusammenarbeit im integralen Planungs- und Bauprozess und liefert die erforderliche technische Kompetenz, um den neuen Holzbau uberzeugend zu vertreten.
