Public Investment Criteria: Using an Interregional Input-Output Programming Model

This volume presents the most robust and useful methodology for the measurement and derivation of public investment criteria. The methodological approach solves inherent defects of traditional methodology, namely, an ad hoc application of the benefit-cost analysis. Although this approach originated in the water resources development project of the Harvard group, the authors' recent methodology has achieved a nonlinear, discrete and dynamic inter regional input-output programming model by which the scale effects, Marshallian external economies, and agglomeration economies formed in very large cities are incorporated. As these benefits make up a source of revenue, difficult noise pollution and congestion problems are coped with automatically in the endogenous model. As an optimal solution, the allocated levels for high-rise building urban renewal (a measure for noise) and environmentally protected trunk transport network (a measure for congestion), as well as for other infrastructural facilities, measured by period and by region, are the results of public investment criteria. In the background of these processes, the imputed price and opportunity costs as a sort of contemporary "god" are always latent.

Trauma and Coping Mechanisms among Assemblies of God World Missionaries (eBook, ePUB)

Trauma, from the fall of Adam and Eve forward impacts human lives in overpowering ways. A review of the lives of biblical personalities and missionaries reveals shared traumatic experiences. In addition to the stress of cultural adjustment, missionaries often live in contexts of violence, political unrest, economic instability, natural disasters, and relational conflict. The examined biblical personalities faced similar issues, yet a majority coped with trauma in ways that led to well-being. The proposed biblical theory of well-being assists missionaries to move deeper in their trust of God by utilizing the coping skills of the biblical personalities including asking God for help, lifting up their praise and worship to God, standing on a sense of call, working with God, lamenting/venting to God in healthy ways, embracing a theology of suffering, and accepting assistance from friends and family. The adherence to the constructs of this theory protects missionaries from the ravages of psychological trauma by avoiding negative coping and developing positive coping skills that lead to trusting in the only One who gives hope in seemingly hopeless situations.

Hiking Naked: A Quaker Woman’s Search for Balance , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 398min

Knocked off her feet after 20 years in public health nursing, Iris Graville quit her job and convinced her husband and their 13-year-old twin son and daughter to move to Stehekin, a remote mountain village in Washington State's North Cascades. They sought adventure; she yearned for the quiet and respite of this community of 85 residents accessible only by boat, float plane, or hiking. Stehekin means the way through, and Hiking Naked chronicles Graville's journey through questions about work and calling, as well as how she coped with ordering groceries by mail, black bears outside her kitchen window, a forest fire that threatened the valley, and a flood that left her and her family stranded for three days.

Instrument of War: The German Army 1914-18 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 644min

Drawing on more than a half-century of research and teaching, Dennis Showalter presents a fresh perspective on the German Army during World War I. Showalter surveys an army at the heart of a national identity, driven by - yet also defeated by - warfare in the modern age, that struggled to capitalize on its victories, and ultimately forgot the lessons of its defeat. Exploring the internal dynamics of the German Army, detailing how the soldiers coped with the many new forms of warfare, Showalter shows how the army's institutions responded and how Germany itself was changed by war. He goes on to detail the major campaigns on the Western and Eastern Fronts and the forgotten war fought in the Middle East and Africa, revealing operational strategy, the complexities of campaigns of movement versus static trench warfare, and the changes in warfare. ungekürzt.

A Macat Analysis of Sheila Fitzpatrick's Everyday Stalinism: Ordinary Life in Extraordinary Times: Soviet Russia in the 1930s , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 101min

In 1999's Everyday Stalinism, historian Sheila Fitzpatrick rejects the common practice of simplistically treating the Soviet Union as a totalitarian government that tightly controlled its citizens. She takes advantage of vast archives that were released after the Cold War to examine Soviet society "from below" - looking at how ordinary citizens coped with shortages and the general sense of fear created by the state. Despite government efforts to mold its citizens into perfect reflections of communist ideology, in practice everyday people found ways to live everyday lives. Their coping mechanisms played an important role in how major events unfolded, including forced industrialization and the Great Purge, in which hundreds of thousands of people were killed by the state. Fitzpatrick's influence on our modern understanding of Soviet society goes beyond her own works. Everyday Stalinism has inspired younger historians to dig deeper into Soviet social life, exploring the mindset of average citizens as they tried to lead ordinary lives in what were undoubtedly extraordinary times. ungekürzt.
