"This book enriches the evolving concept of soft power, and China's approach to soft power, by considering how aspects of Chinese culture, notably the traditional martial art and health promoting exercise Tai Chi Quan, are being successfully promoted around the world by non-state actors, and how this fits alongside China's state-sponsored soft power promotion. The book contrasts growing soft power promotion by China with the corresponding decline in such activities by Western states, outlines the growth of Tai Chi Quan societies worldwide and explores in detail why Tai Chi Quan appeals so strongly outside China. It shows how Tai Chi Quan introduces many people around the world to Chinese culture and builds links between people inside China and elsewhere in the world. It concludes that Tai Chi Quan achieves what soft power aims to achieve: a good image and long-term friendship."

Die Forschung zur Weimarer Republik konzentriert sich vor allem auf die Städte, insbesondere Berlin; die Forschung zum Stifterwesen insbesondere auf das deutsche Kaiserreich. Das Werk behandelt einen beispiellosen Ausnahmefall jüdischen Mäzenatentums in der Zwischenkriegszeit auf dem Land. Der amerikanisch-jüdische Philanthrop James Loeb zog noch vor dem Ersten Weltkrieg auf einen Landsitz in Murnau im bayerischen Oberland. Während der Weimarer Republik finanzierte er u.a. das örtliche Kriegerdenkmal, eine gemeinnützige Baugenossenschaft, eine Mädchenschule, eine Wohltätigkeitsstiftung für Bedürftige, schließlich das örtliche Krankenhaus. Gleichzeitig entwickelte sich Murnau seit den frühen 1920er Jahren zu einer Hochburg des Nationalsozialismus, wo bereits (atypisch für Oberbayern) seit 1924 bei allen Reichs- und Landtagswahlen mehrheitlich völkisch bzw. nationalsozialistisch gewählt wurde. Das Buch blickt auf dieses Spannungsverhältnis zwischen Philanthropie und Rassenwahn
"Sebastian Rödl's Self-Consciousness and Objectivity is one of the most original and thought-provoking books in philosophy of mind for the last several years. An ambitious defence of absolute idealism, Rödl rejects the idea that reality is simply something given, and instead advances the position that all reality is accessible to thought because reality is already included in judgment. In this outstanding collection, a roster of international contributors critically examine the significance of Rödl's arguments and take the themes of his book in new directions. The volume concludes with an extensive response by Sebastian Rödl to his critics, making it essential reading for those interested in contemporary debates in analytic philosophy, philosophy of mind and philosophical idealism"--

Dieses Buch stellt nach einer Einführung in die Grundlagen von Audits die wichtigsten agilen Werte, Praktiken und Methoden vor, erläutert ihren möglichen Einsatz im Rahmen des allgemeinen Auditprozesses wie auch in den sogenannten "Audits im Sprint". Agilität im Qualitätsmanagement und in der Durchführung interner Audits steht nicht im Widerspruch zum Leitfaden ISO 19011 "Auditierung von Managementsystemen", in dem es um die Wirksamkeit und Eignung des QM-Systems sowie dessen Chancen zur Weiterentwicklung geht - sie ist vielmehr eine konsequente Weiterentwicklung. Best-Practice-Beispiele veranschaulichen, wie eine konkrete Umsetzung im Krankenhausumfeld aussehen kann. // Audits im Krankenhaus werden oft noch sehr dokumentenlastig und auf ISO-Konformitätsprüfung ausgerichtet durchgeführt. Dabei geht es in Zeiten von E-Health, Digitalisierung und künstlicher Intelligenz (KI) im Krankenhaus längst um mehr und es ist vor allem eine flexiblere Herangehensweise gefordert. Die aktuellen Transformationsprozesse benötigen schnellere und dynamischere Anpassungen in der Organisation und bei den Abläufen. Mit Hilfe von agilen Audit-Instrumenten wie Scrum, Kaizen und Kanban können diese Herausforderungen gemeistert werden.
