On Ordinary Heroes and American Democracy (buecher.de - (Teil2)) |  Produktbeschreibung (22301456): True American heroes need not have superhuman abilities nor do they need to act alone. Heroism in a democracy is different from the heroism of myths and legends, writes Gerald Pomper in this original contribution to the literature of U.S. politics. Through the remarkable stories of eight diverse Americans who acted as heroes by ´´just doing their jobs´´ during national crises, he offers a provocative definition of heroism and fresh reasons to respect U.S. institutions and the people who work within them. This new paperback edition includes photographs, an introductory chapter on American heroism after 9/11, a survey of the meanings of heroism in U.S. popular culture, and an original concluding theory of ´´ordinary´´ heroism. | | >>> Jetzt bei buecher.de - (Teil2) ansehen oder für EUR 21.95 bestellen! |

Environmental Management and Development (buecher.de - (Teil1)) |  Produktbeschreibung (21728976): By focusing on environmental management this book is very different from existing environment and development texts, whose emphasis is on listing problems, making warnings and voicing advocacy. This textbook moves on from these viewpoints to look at practical management and problem-solving techniques. Environmental management, by definition, also encompasses global problems and future challenges for our increasingly globalised society. ´´Environmental Management and Development´´ clarifies the definition, nature and role of environmental management in development and developing countries. It begins with an introduction to the key terms, issues and tools of environmental management, which are linked and developed in the following chapters on specific environmental issues, making extensive use of global-local case-studies. The book concludes by discussing who pays for EM and the future for EM in developing countries. | | >>> Jetzt bei buecher.de - (Teil1) ansehen oder für EUR 37.95 bestellen! |

Facets of the American Dream and American Nightmare in Film (buecher.de - Topseller) |  Produktbeschreibung (25448163): Thesis (M.A.) from the year 2008 in the subject American Studies, grade: 1,7, University of Duisburg-Essen, 60 entries in the bibliography, language: English, abstract: ´´Predictively, any attempt at abstracting from the plethora of relevant publications something even faintly resembling a definition of the ´Dream´ is doomed to failure.´´ Peter Freese As Peter Freese precisely points out, defining the American Dream is a difficult if not irresolvable task. The reason for this is that ´´beyond an abstract belief in possibility, there is no one American Dream.´´ Nevertheless, it is easy to find short definitions in various encyclopedias. In The American Heritage Dictionary of the English Language it is defined as ´´[a]n American ideal of a happy and successful life to which all may aspire: ´´In the deepening gloom of the Depression, the American Dream represented a reaffirmation of traditional American hopes.´´´ The New Dictionary of Cultural Literacy offers a different definition: ´´[a] phrase connoting hope for prosperity and happiness, symbolized particularly by having a house of one´s own. Possibly applied at first to the hopes of immigrants, the phrase now applies to all except the very rich and suggests a confident hope that one´s children´s economic and social condition will be better than one´s own.´´ A rather short and simple explanation of the term American Dream can be found in the dictionary WordNet by the Princeton University which says that it is ´´the widespread aspiration of Americans to live better than their parents did.´´ All of these definitions describe various facets of the dream, but none of them gets to the point. In order to get an idea of what the dream really is or what it is assumed to be and how the idea of it came up, it is necessary to have a look at American history. The recapitulation in this work will make an attempt to reveal why it is the American dream and how it is related to American national identity. It will give a brief overview of the most important concepts in the history of the country, starting back in 1585 when the first colonists arrived. It will deal with important topics which, besides colonialization and the connected reasons for leaving Europe, are the establishment of the Declaration of Independence, the Frontier and the westward movement, Manifest Destiny all the way up to the Civil Rights Movement and the struggle for equality. Besides, it is supposed to not only show the bright side of the dream but its shady sides as well in order to give full testimony of the idea of the American Dream. | | >>> Jetzt bei buecher.de - Topseller ansehen oder für EUR 54.90 bestellen! |

| | Produktbeschreibung (21425112): This book presents a comprehensive examination of the drug control policy process in the United States. How are policy choices identified, debated and selected? How are the consequences of governmental policy measured and evaluated? How, if at all, do we learn from our mistakes. The first section deals with four different ways of understanding American drug policy: drug control as ideology, drugs as an issue of definition and measurement, an historical analysis of drug control, and finally, drug control as an occasion for debating the proper role of the criminal law. Zimring and Hawkins also discuss priority problems for drug control and provide a foundation for an improved policy process. They argue that protection of children and youth should shape policy toward illicit crime, with attention to the fact that youth protection objectives may limit the effectiveness of some drug controls. | | >>> Jetzt bei buecher.de - (Teil2) ansehen oder für EUR 84.95 bestellen! |

|  Produktbeschreibung (20946886): Die Fähigkeit zu erzählen und das Bedürfnis nach Geschichten sind nur den Menschen eigen, ebenso wie die Gabe zu lieben und das Verlangen, geliebt zu werden. Diese Eigenheiten sind Konstanten, aber in ihren Erscheinungsformen sehr variabel. Zudem entzieht sich die Liebe der logischen Definition sowie einer rationalen Letztbegründung. Dagegen scheint die überlieferte und aktuelle Fülle an Liebeserzählungen, -romanen und -filmen zu belegen, dass narrative Fiktionen ausdrücken und vermitteln können, was ´´Liebe´´ sein mag, aber auch der Verständigung darüber dienen, was ´´Liebe´´ sein soll. Ausgehend von diesen Überlegungen und Annahmen wird in dieser Untersuchung eine Gruppe von ´´Volks´´-Erzählungen mit einer Gruppe von populären Spielfilmen, die beide die soziale Mesalliance als Aufstiegs- und Paarbildungsmuster einsetzen, verglichen. Im Einzelnen werden Überschneidungspunkte zwischen Märchen und Liebesfilmen, die dem Märchen ähneln, untersucht. So geht es um das Verständnis von Liebe zwischen Mann und Frau, das diese Gruppen von narrativen Fiktionen jeweils vermitteln, um die Spezifik der Darstellungsmittel, mit denen dies geschieht, und um die Frage, inwieweit eine Märchenerzählung bzw. ein photographischer Tonfilm aufgrund ihrer bzw. seiner Spezifik definiert, was Liebe ist. | | >>> Jetzt bei buecher.de - (Teil2) ansehen oder für EUR 48.00 bestellen! |
