Theological Ethical Moral Series (TEMS) Vol. 1

Essays on Community Ethics and Divine-Human-Relationship

THEOS – Studienreihe Theologische Forschungsergebnisse

Dieses Buch unterstreicht, dass die Entwicklung (des Menschen) integral sein sollte und nicht lediglich rational; sie sollte die unvergängliche Berufung des Menschen mit einschließen. Es wäre ein fataler Irrtum, eine Entwicklung zu erwägen, die lediglich den sozialen Aspekt des menschlichen Lebens hervorhebt und den geistigen Aspekt missachtet.

Dieses Buch zeigt auf, dass eine integrierte moralische Erziehung durch das Schulsystem während der ersten Jahre der…

SOCIALIA – Studienreihe soziologische Forschungsergebnisse

The development of science, research and technology depends on international knowledge transfer. Because of that, the studies that technical and natural sciences have done in collaboration with social and human sciences are inevitable in order to find solutions to the current social problems and to meet the expected needs.

Current social questions can no longer be resolved solely with the work of natural sciences, but they also need research in the social and…

Sächsisches Archivgesetz

Kommentar

Recht der Neuen Medien

Die öffentlichen Archive spielen im modernen Informationsstaat eine wichtige Rolle. Anstatt nur der Speicher alter und vergessener Akten zu bleiben, entwickeln sie sich immer mehr zu vernetzten Informationsdienstleistern für Staat, Forschung und Gesellschaft. In Zeiten des E-Governments, der elektronischen Aktenführung und der Informationsfreiheit des Bürgers kommt den rechtlichen Grundlagen des Archivwesens eine große Bedeutung zu. Dieser Gesetzeskommentar zum…

Criteria for the Use of Exonyms

Proceedings of the 17th UNGEGN Working Group on Exonyms Meeting, Zagreb, 14–16 May 2015

Name & Place – Contributions to Toponymic Literature and Research

Authors and editors of maps, atlases and all kinds of text publications, including articles in newspapers, as well as journalists of the electronic media, frequently face the problem of which name to use for a geographical feature outside their own country or linguistic community. If a choice of names is available, should they choose a name used by the community residing in or near the feature (endonym), or a name used by the author’s or editor’s community…

Confirmation of the Definitions

Proceedings of the 16th UNGEGN Working Group on Exonyms Meeting, Hermagor, 5–7 June 2014

Name & Place – Contributions to Toponymic Literature and Research

The term exonym was first used by the British toponymist Marcel AUROUSSEAU (1957) and – interestingly enough – the term endonym was coined only later (1975), by the Austrian Slavist Otto KRONSTEINER, even though endonym is the basic and primary concept, and endonyms prevail by far in number.

The United Nations Group of Experts on Geographical Names (UNGEGN), whose main task is the international standardization of geographical…

Thanksgiving, Faith and Morality

THEOS – Studienreihe Theologische Forschungsergebnisse

The Theological Ethical Moral Series (TEMS) Vol. 2 stresses that the need to thank God is more of a virtue, which should be learnt, than a law that prescribes. Virtue springs from life and forms it. The psalms indicate that thanksgiving is not only personal but communal, drawing from a happy reversal of events.

The Eucharist is the principal act of thanksgiving that Jesus Christ instituted. Though the Eucharist essentially is thanksgiving, this doesnt…

Die Bedeutung von IT-Funktionalitäten für den Erfolg virtueller Communities

INTERNET – Praxis und Zukunftsanwendungen des Internets

Durch die Entwicklung des Web 2.0 ist die Bedeutung von virtuellen Communities in den vergangenen Jahren stetig gewachsen. Die Popularität einiger weniger Communities, wie z. B. Facebook und StudiVZ, hat dazu geführt, dass die Anzahl entsprechender Angebote rasant zugenommen hat. Dennoch erscheinen nach der ersten Euphorie seit einiger Zeit immer wieder Pressemeldungen, die die Probleme virtueller Communities deutlich machen. Sie geraten aufgrund massiver Eingriffe in die…

Private Antitrust Damages Actions in the US, Germany and at the European Community Level

Americanisation or Europeanisation of Antitrust Laws and Their Extraterritorial Enforcement Under Recent Reform Initiatives

Studienreihe wirtschaftsrechtliche Forschungsergebnisse

The author analyses the systems of private antitrust damages actions in the United States of America, Germany and at the European Community level. Treble damages actions in the US have set the international standard for private antitrust damages claims. However, the re-evaluation of private antitrust enforcement by the American Modernization Commission and its consecutive proposals revived the debate for changing the interplay between public and private antitrust…

The Traditio-Historical Context of the Resurrection Hope and its Significance for the Theology of Wolfhart Pannenberg

THEOS – Studienreihe Theologische Forschungsergebnisse

The book attempts to find the connection between Pannenberg’s theology and the tradition-historical context on which it is based.

Scripture bears witness to different ideas concerning life and death. These notions have been modified and undergone changes throughout history. Thus, the idea that the life is fulfilled on the earth in the fellowship with God changed into the hope for a life fulfilled beyond the boundaries of death, in the world to come. The…
