Zusammenfassung
In diesem Beitrag wird die in bildungspolitischen Diskussionen bisweilen vorgebrachte Behauptung, dass Bildung gegenwärtig zunehmend als Ware betrachtet werde, ad absurdum geführt. Aufbauend auf dem von Gary S. Becker und seinen Mitarbeitern entwickelten Haushaltsproduktionsansatz wird argumentiert, dass die individuelle Bildung nicht als Ware betrachtet werden kann, die auf Märkten käuflich zu erwerben ist. Auf Märkten lassen sich freilich Lehrdienstleistungen kaufen, mit deren Hilfe sich Individuen selbst (weiter-)bilden können. Das Ergebnis dieser Bildungsproduktion geht, in Form von Wissen, in das Humanvermögen des jeweiligen Individuums ein. Sein Humanvermögen kann der Einzelne auf dem Arbeitsmarkt anbieten beziehungsweise verwerten. Die vorgeschlagene konsequente Unterscheidung zwischen Lehrdienstleistungen, Bildung und Humanvermögen stellt den Versuch dar, begriffliche Klarheit in die sozialwissenschaftliche Analyse von Lehrdienstleistungsmärkten, Bildungsprozessen und Arbeitsmärkten zu bringen.

Indonesia, with over 240 million people and rich of natural resources and abundant human resources, is very attractive for investors operating in wide array of industries. Many reports on Human Resource Management (HRM) and the English journals have written about the developing countries in Europe, Africa, and Asia (countries such as Hong Kong, China, and India), but surprisingly, writing on HRM issues in Indonesia has been rare and mainly limited to labor economics and macro-level Human Resources Development. Therefore, this thesis intends to make a contribution to literatures of HRM issues in Indonesia, with the example for German companies which are establishing their subsidiaries in Indonesia. This book examines Human Resource Management Issues in Indonesia from environment context such as political, economical, socio-cultural, technological, environmental and legal perspective (PESTEL Analysis), culture dimension difference between Indonesia and Germany, and the current issues of managing human resources in Indonesia by firms, especially for multinational companies, such as issues of general condition of labors, recruitment and selection process, compensation appraisal, performance management, trade unions and gender. Regarding HRM issues, the study has also shown that foreign companies have many threats, if they establish their subsidiaries in Indonesia. But on the other hand, Indonesia has some strengths and already improved some essential sectors that should be considered as opportunities for foreign companies, such as abundance in labors, rich natural resources, good international relationships, increasing foreign trades and FDI, growing telecommunication development, and starts improving national education and health. As conclusion, the HRM issues for foreign companies establishing a subsidiary in Indonesia are very complex, especially due to environment aspects and culture dimension difference. However, through understanding culture dimension of Indonesian societies, use the opportunities and minimize the risks, managing people in Indonesia is not an impossible mission.

Innovation has been long recognized as a source of competitive advantage. Although human resource (HR) is considered the most valuable asset in today's firms, how HR innovation enables firms to deliver superior performance remains an area of ambiguity. There is a general consensus that competitive advantage built on human resource innovation is not easily imitable, and therefore vital to the sustainability of firm growth and competitiveness. Yet, the primary focus of both practitioner and academic studies has been on technical (product and process) innovation with little attention paid to non-technical innovation such as HR innovation.

The whole landscape of research in urban studies was revolutionized by the publication of Richard Florida's The Rise of the Creative Class in 2002, and his subsequent book entitled The Flight of the Creative Class has helped to maintain a decade-long explosion of interest in the field. While these two books examine the creative class in the context of the United States, research has emerged which investigates the creative class worldwide.This book brings together detailed studies of the creative class in cities across the globe, examining the impact of the creative class on growth and developm
