Der zweite Band der Deutsch-Georgischen Jahrbücher vereint philosophische, historische und politische Perspektiven auf die gesellschaftlichen Umwälzungen in Osteuropa zu Beginn des 20. Jahrhunderts und zeigt am Beispiel Georgiens auf, welche Rolle marxistische Ideen für die soziale Ordnung und politische Entwicklung des Landes gespielt haben. Dabei geht es sowohl in theoretischer Hinsicht um die Frage nach der plausiblen Auslegung marxistischer Ideen als auch in historischer Perspektive um die Herausforderungen, die mit den Bemühungen verbunden waren, einen sozialdemokratischen Staat zu schaffen. Auf diese Weise versammelt der Band Beiträge, die von dem Denken von Karl Marx, Friedrich Engels oder Konstantine Megrelidze über die Bedeutung der Auseinandersetzungen der verschiedenen politischen Gruppen für die Sozialdemokratie in Georgien bis hin zu der Frage nach der Rolle von Sprache für die gesellschaftliche Ordnung reichen

Die "Texte zur österreichischen Verfassungsgeschichte" versammeln Faksimiles der österreichischen Verfassungen und verfassungsrechtlich relevanter Rechtsvorschriften seit 1848 und kombinieren sie mit kurzen Einführungen und Literaturhinweisen. Dies geschieht aus dem Blickwinkel der aktuellen Verfassungsrechtslage. Die Entstehung des heute noch geltenden "Bundes-Verfassungsgesetzes (B-VG)" im Jahre 1920 kann nämlich ohne Rückgriff auf die Verfassungsgeschichte der 1918 untergegangenen Habsburgermonarchie genau so wenig verstanden werden wie die Weiterentwicklung des österreichischen Verfassungsrechts ohne Besinnung auf die Geschichte der Ersten und Zweiten Republik sowie jener Europas. Vielfältige Bezüge können festgestellt werden, etwa im Grundrechtsbereich: Die teilweise Weitergeltung des Staatsgrundgesetzes über die allgemeinen Rechte der Staatsbürger von 1867, welches selbst wieder hauptsächlich auf die Ideen der Verfassungsdiskussionen der 1848/49er-Jahre zurückgeht, ist ein frühes Beispiel - die Übernahme der Europäischen Menschenrechtskonvention von 1950 in das österreichische Verfassungsrecht 1964 oder die innerstaatliche Anwendbarkeit der Charta der Grundrechte der Europäischen Union durch Richterspruch 2012 sind jüngere. So erstreckt sich der zeitliche Rahmen des vorliegenden repräsentativen Bandes von der ersten Verfassung 1848 des Kaisertums Österreich bis hin zur mittels QR-Code abrufbaren tagesaktuellen Fassung des Bundes-Verfassungsgesetzes der Republik Österreich

"Computer application systems are helpful for society to turn into a digital era of computing and interaction made more accessible and consistent. Further study in this field is required in order to ensure the applications are utilized appropriately. Perspectives on Social Welfare Applications' Optimization and Enhanced Computer Applications discusses new computer applications and analyzes the existing ones to introduce a subsystem of the current system to make the social interactions towards digital world initiatives. This book provides a platform for scholars, researchers, scientists, and working professionals to exchange and share their computer application creation experiences and research results about all aspects of application software system development within computer science with emerging and advanced technologies. Covering topics such as applied computing, data science, and mobile computing, this premier reference source is ideal for industry professionals, computer scientists, academicians, engineers, researchers, scholars, practitioners, librarians, instructors, and students."--

"In the implementation of smart cities, sensors and actuators that produce and consume enormous amounts of data in a variety of formats and ontologies will be incorporated into the system as a whole. The data produced by the participating devices need to be adequately categorized and connected to reduce duplication and conflicts. Newer edge computing techniques are needed to manage enormous amounts of data quickly and avoid overloading the cloud infrastructure.Cyber-Physical System Solutions for Smart Cities considers the most recent developments in several crucial software services and cyber infrastructures that are important to smart cities. Covering key topics such as artificial intelligence, smart data, big data, and computer science, this premier reference source is ideal for industry professionals, government officials, policymakers, scholars, researchers, academicians, instructors, and students."--

"Chapters 1-3 provide an overview of philosophical ways of knowing and key ideas from the past. The next section (Chapters 4-6) focuses on young people their cultures, concerning issues and challenges. Using these beginning chapters as background Chapters 7-10 outline key ideas and theories associated with teaching and learning including examples of innovative schooling and global dimensions of technologies. The final section, Chapters 11 - 14 consider place-based connections and how best to maximise pedagogical practices through affordances or opportunities casually or deliberately made available"--

The study of taxation is fundamental for understanding the construction of Tibetan polities, the nature of their power – often with a marked religious component – and their relationships with their subjects, as well as the consequences of taxation for social stratification. This volume takes the analysis of taxation in Tibetan societies (both under the Ganden Phodrang and beyond it) in new directions, using hitherto unexploited Tibetan-language sources. It pursues the dual objective of advancing our understanding of the organisation of taxation from an institutional perspective and of highlighting the ways in which taxpayers themselves experienced and represented these fiscal systems. Contributors are Saadet Arslan, John Bray, Kalsang Norbu Gurung, Isabelle Henrion-Dourcy, Berthe Jansen, Diana Lange, Nancy E. Levine, Charles Ramble, Isabelle Riaboff, Peter Schwieger, Alice Travers, and Maria M. Turek

The Florida Research Ensemble (Ulmer, Revelle, Freeman and Tilson) is an interdisciplinary collaborative arts and research group developing choragraphy, a method of inquiry which applies modernist arts practices and poststructural theory to the design and testing of image as category. The authors argue that image categories functions for networked digital media the way Aristotle's word categories functioned for literate concepts. "Chora" was retrieved for contemporary philosophy by Jacques Derrida, in the context of his deconstruction of Western metaphysics. Grounded in grammatology (the history and theory of writing), Derrida's critique of Being and Becoming as primary concepts of reality is that the category or classification system invented within literacy is not adequate for the apparatus of electracy that has developed since the industrial revolution. The FRE project in Miami designed and tested a prototype for a choral category, capable of coordinating real places, cultural collective information, digital technologies, and personal experience. Miami Virtue tested choragraphy as a method for adopting a particular region (the Miami River), including primary discourses organizing its lifeworld, and articulating it as a category of thought. The designed and recorded virtual site functions for electracy the way concepts function for literacy: as a navigable set supporting holistic intelligence and public discourse
