In countries such as Germany, where municipalities have planning sovereignty, problems of urban sprawl often arise. As the dynamics of land development have not substantially subsided over the last years, the national government decided to test the instrument of ‘Tradable Planning Permits’ (TPP) in a nationwide field experiment with 87 municipalities involved. The field experiment was able to implement the key features of a TPP system in a laboratory setting with approximated real socioeconomic and planning conditions. In a TPP system allocated planning permits must be used by municipalities for developing land. The permits can be traded between local jurisdictions, so that they have flexibility in deciding how to comply with the regulation. In order to evaluate the performance of such a system, specific field data about future building areas and their impact on community budgets for the period 2014–2028 were collected. The field experiment contains several sessions with representatives of the municipalities and with students. The participants were confronted with two (municipalities) and four (students) schemes. The results show that a trading system can curb down land development in an effective and also efficient manner. However, depending on the regulatory framework, the trading schemes show different price developments and distributional effects. The unexperienced representatives of the local authorities can easily handle with the permits in the administration and in the established market. A trading scheme sets very high incentives to save open space and to direct development activities to areas within existing planning boundaries. It is therefore a promising instrument for Germany and also other regions or countries with an established land-use planning system.
Die Gewinnung und Bindung qualifizierter MINT-Mitarbeitender (Mathematik, Informatik, Naturwissenschaft und Technik) gehört zu den Herausforderungen des Personalmanagements, gerade in Bezug auf den weiblichen MINT-Nachwuchs. Spannend ist die Frage, ob Frauen Arbeitgebermerkmale anders gewichten als Männer und sich geschlechtsspezifische Präferenzen bei arbeitsplatzbezogenen Merkmalen auf den MINT-Kontext übertragen lassen. Eine empirische Untersuchung mit Studierenden technischer Studiengänge liefert Ansatzpunkte für die zielgruppenspezifische Gestaltung von Employer-Branding-Kampagnen und Rekrutierungsaktivitäten.
Sprachassistenten gewinnen als Alltagshelfer immer mehr an Bedeutung. Sie beeinflussen die Art und Weise, wie Menschen Aufgaben erledigen und mit Unternehmen interagieren. Eine qualitative Studie hat die Nutzungsbereitschaft beim Kauf von High-Involvement-Produkten über Sprachassistenten untersucht. Zukünftig könnte Voice Commerce für diese Produkte an Relevanz gewinnen.
This book examines the implementation of the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) in East Africa. The BRI is considered China's central geopolitical and geo-economic project in the era of President Xi Jinping. Through this work, the author aims to contribute to filling some research gaps, such as the lack of depth in studies of individual BRI projects and the underconsideration of processing narratives in participating countries. The guiding question is the extent to which the BRI is a political or hegemonic project of the CCP-directed state-civil society complex in East Africa. To answer these questions, databases of international organizations and policy documents are analyzed. In addition, the author conducts a qualitative content analysis of newspaper articles from local media houses in the countries of Ethiopia, Kenya, and Tanzania to examine three infrastructure projects. The work illustrates that the BRI contributes to increasing connectivity in East Africa. At the same time, the compression of economic relations and the implementation of infrastructure projects in East Africa lead to numerous consequences and contour a hegemonic project.
In today's business landscape, companies compete more and more as integrated supply chains rather than as individual firms. The success of the entire supply chain determines the economic well-being of each company involved. With management attention shifting to supply chains, the role of management accounting naturally must extend to the cross-company layer as well. This book demonstrates how management accounting can make a significant contribution to supply chain success. It targets students who are already familiar with the fundamentals of accounting and want to extend their expertise in the field of cross-company (or network) management accounting. Practitioners will draw valuable insights from the text as well.
This second edition includes a new chapter on Digitalization and Supply Chain Accounting, as well as new opener cases to each chapter that provide real-world examples.
Hybrides Arbeiten in digitalen Prozessen sollte eigentlich sehr gut funktionieren. Durch die Digitalisierung werden Schnittstellen zwischen Abteilungen und Funktionen standardisiert sowie Abläufe durch Workflow-Systeme vorgegeben und ganz oder teilweise automatisiert. Es werden Aufgaben eindeutig zugewiesen, Datenverluste verhindert und Abweichungen vermieden. Die Nachteile der häufig noch etablierten tayloristischen, funktionsorientierten Silo-Aufbauorganisation in administrativen Bereichen werden dadurch ebenso kompensiert wie die räumliche Trennung der beteiligten Personen in einer hybriden Arbeitswelt.
Die neue Arbeitswelt verändert den Arbeitsmarkt rasant und fördert die Entwicklung neuer Arbeitsmodelle. Hybrid Work bietet dabei unzählige Zukunftspotentiale, die das eigene Unternehmen nach innen und außen auf ein ganz neues Niveau heben können. In diesem Buch stellen Expert:innen aus Wirtschaft, Politik und Wissenschaft die Herausforderungen, Chancen und Lösungen der neuen Arbeitsmodelle vor und werfen einen Blick in die Zukunft. Sie diskutieren, wie sich hybride Arbeit auf die Produktivität und das Wohlbefinden der Mitarbeiter:innen auswirkt und welche Anforderungen an Führungskräfte gestellt werden, um erfolgreich zu führen.
The EAT–Lancet planetary health diet (PHD) provides guidelines on a global scale and calls for red meat consumption to be halved. Operational PHD guidelines at country level have yet to be determined. Here we argue that the biological link between milk and bovine-meat production must be considered when operationalizing the globally calculated PHD to national contexts. Using a stylized computer simulation model rooted in a food system approach, we explore the impact of dietary scenarios on milk and bovine-meat production and show that ignoring this biological link can lead to substantial imbalances between national dietary guidelines and production outcomes and potentially lead to food waste. Furthermore, we assess current national dietary guidelines in Europe and find that most disregard this biological link and are incompatible with the PHD, with implications for policymakers and consumers to consider when adapting the PHD in national contexts.
The Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) has reinforced China’s business engagement in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). While previous international business research focused on the internationalization and investments of Chinese companies, this viewpoint uncovers how both local African and international non-Chinese Small and Medium Sized Enterprises (SMEs) may benefit from and participate in the BRI. A focus is laid on the infrastructure sector accounting for the highest investments since the inception of the BRI in 2013. In a conceptual way, the motives of SMEs to participate in infrastructure project business in the context of the BRI are explored. Investigating the challenges of two large transport infrastructure projects, the business potentials for SMEs become visible. It is argued that SMEs find business potentials particularly as investors, sub-contractors and project management experts in the BRI in Sub-Saharan Africa.
