Reverse Engineering is a term that comes originally from the field of mechanical engineering. Reverse Engineering indicates the process of analysing an existing object or system by laying out its construction plan to then rebuild it in every detail. This manner of reconstruction allows for modifications and adjustments to new demands and requirements, it signifies creative appropriation, democratisation of knowledge, further development. The contributions in this volume take Reverse Engineering to another level, applying it to the fields of arts, sciences and politics in an attempt to reveal t

This paper presents a case study of an information system implementation. The system, a computerized student record system, was introduced into a small university when the university opened. Unlike many other case studies of systems implementation, there was no existing system to replace, thus it was expected that there would be little resistance to the system. Successful implementation was anticipated, particularly as the systems designers were also the primary users. An evaluation of the system shows this was not the case. Two groups of users are identified, one pleased with the system, the other dissatisfied. The secondary users did not display their dissatisfaction with the system by resistance, however. They used the system frequently, but were denied the full access they required to do their jobs. Ostensibly due to technical limitations of the system, the primary users acted as gatekeepers. An examination of the culture and management structure of the university reveals strong political motivations for the primary users to exert power over the secondary users. Markus's (1983) interpretation of interaction theory is used to discuss the political implications of the system design. It is concluded that senior management must be aware of the importance of information systems to their organizations, and understand the potential for designers to use these systems as sources of power. The case study is reconstructed from the author's experiences as a staff member at the university during the system implementation, initially as a primary user of the system (but not an active member of the system design team), and later as a secondary user. The case is evaluated from the perspective of both user groups, using a framework derived from the literature on information systems failure and successful systems implementation. ; Middleton, Catherine.

Die Grundlagen für das Verantwortungsgefühl werden phylogenetisch sowie onto- und aktualgenetisch im Kontext der Fähigkeit zu volitivem Handeln abgeleitet. Es wird gezeigt, dass das Individuum erst mit der bewussten Plan- und Steuerbarkeit des eigenen Handelns zunehmend dafür verantwortlich gemacht werden kann, was es tut und was es unterlässt. Je sachkundiger es dann entscheidet und handelt, desto mehr wird es zum Subjekt seiner Lebensgestaltung. Vielfältige und persönlich relevante Informations- und Einflussmöglichkeiten fördern nicht nur Motiventwicklung und persönliches Verantwortungsgefühl, sie begünstigen auch ein sachadäquates und stabiles, aber keineswegs starres Motiv- und Wertsystem. Dabei geht es nicht schlechthin um internale Kontrollüberzeugungen, sondern um relevante, reale Einflussmöglichkeiten in bedeutsamen, lebenstypischen Entscheidungssituationen. Willkürliche Kontrolle und Einengung der Informations- und Einflussmöglichkeiten dagegen kennzeichnen autoritäre Erziehung und autoritäre Herrschaft. Zivilcourage ist auch in demokratisch verfassten Gesellschaften eher selten. Forderungen nach Loyalität stehen dem oft entgegen und werden viel zu selten hinterfragt. Besonders gravierende Probleme ergeben sich daraus in Zeiten sozialen und politischen Wandels. Die Möglichkeit des Subjektseins erlegt Personen die Verantwortung auf, sich der sich ändernden gesellschaftlichen Wirklichkeit nicht nur anzupassen, sondern sie ihren Werten gemäß mitzugestalten.

"Sport is often seen as an indicator of the civic maturity of a community, an aspect of the rights of citizens to health, education and social integration. This book examines the relationships between participation in sport and physical activity, and welfare policies across Europe. It argues that the success of campaigns for the promotion of sport depend on the existence of dedicated welfare policies promoted by the European states and explores variations in cultural models and structures of governance across Europe. Addressing the function of supranational institutions such as the EU as well as voluntary networks, the book illuminates key issues in European societies such as migration, financial austerity and Brexit as they relate to sport policy. This is important reading for scholars and students in the fields of European sport and physical activity, sociology, political science and organisational analysis, as well as operators and managers of the sport systems involved in advanced training programmes"--
