Human and Raptor Interactions in the Context of a Nomadic Society
(kassel university press, 2015)
This research project focuses on contemporary eagle-taming falconry practice of the Altaic Kazakhs animal herding society in Bayan Ulgii Province in Western Mongolia. It aims to contributing both theoretical and empirical criteria for cultural preservation of Asian falconry. This cultural as well as environmental discourse is illustrated with concentrated field research framed by ecological anthropology and ethno-ornithology from the viewpoint of “Human-Animal Interaction (HAI)” and “Human-Animal Behavior (HAB)”.

La cortesía verbal en textos medievales españoles: universalidad, historicidad y tradicionalidad
(Universidad de Sevilla, 2022)
La pragmática histórica y el análisis conversacional histórico exploran las tareas comunicativas y sus transformaciones en las comunidades lingüísticas y culturales de diferentes épocas (cf. Schrott 2011, 2012, 2016, Jucker/Taavitsainen 2010). Para cumplir con sus tareas comunicativas y, en particular, con las normas de cortesía los hablantes recurren a patrones y rutinas que moldean las interacciones verbales. Estas tradiciones discursivas, con su saber cultural, son una directriz cardinal para el habla cortés. La ...

The Austro Modern
(2021)
The countries of Central Europe cannot simply be understood as catching up with Western modernization. Rather, the article shows how technical developments proceeded in the car factories Lohner in Vienna and Austro-Daimler in Wiener Neustadt, and how the light and powerful gasoline engine drove aircraft construction (the Taube by Etrich) and airship construction. Austria was the leader in aircraft construction around 1910. The creative milieu in Vienna is evident from the fact that the headquarters of the Lohnerwerke ...

Molekulare Grundlagen der PKA-Lokalisierung durch A-Kinase-Ankerproteine
(2018-08-30)
A-Kinase-Ankerproteine (AKAPs) tragen maßgeblich zur Spezifität des ubiquitären cAMP-Signalweges bei. Dies geschieht unter anderem durch die Verankerung der cAMP-abhängigen Proteinkinase (PKA) an verschiedene Zellorganellen, wodurch die PKA-Effekte lokal und zeitlich begrenzt werden. AKAPs variieren erheblich in Größe und Struktur, zeigen aber als gemeinsames Strukturmotiv eine amphipathische Helix auf. Alle vier Isoformen der regulatorischen Untereinheit der PKA (PKA-R) bilden bei Dimerisierung eine hydrophobe ...

Variationelle Zeitdiskretisierungen höherer Ordnung der Konvektions-Diffusions-Reaktions-Gleichungen in zeitabhängigen Gebieten
(2016-08-11)
Wir betrachten zeitabhängige Konvektions-Diffusions-Reaktions-Gleichungen in zeitabhängigen Gebieten, wobei die Bewegung des Gebietsrandes bekannt ist. Die zeitliche Entwicklung des Gebietes wird durch die ALE-Formulierung behandelt, die die Nachteile der klassischen Euler-und Lagrange-Betrachtungsweisen behebt. Die Position des Randes und seine Geschwindigkeit werden dabei so in das Gebietsinnere fortgesetzt, dass starke Gitterdeformationen verhindert werden. Als Zeitdiskretisierungen höherer Ordnung werden stetige ...

Artificial micro RNA system in Dictyostelium discoideum
(2011-01-12)
Dictyostelium discoideum is a social amoeba that serves as a model system for RNA interference and related mechanisms. Its position between plants and animals enables evolutionary snapshot of mechanisms and protein machinery involved in investigated subjects. MiRNAs are small regulatory RNAs that are evolutionary conserved and present in animals, plants, viruses and some prokaryotes. They have roles in development, cell growth and differentiation, apoptosis and their miss-regulation is associated with many diseases ...

Understanding the emergence and evolution of pastoral community groups from the perspective of community members and external development actors in northern Kenya
(Kassel University Press, 2019-01-15)
Whereas there is abundance of information on community groups that engage in income generation in rural agricultural and peri-urban areas, information on community groups in pastoral areas still remains scarce. However, in the recent past, a growing trend of such groups has been observed in the pastoral areas in northern Kenya. This study therefore explores how these groups have emerged since Kenya’s independence in 1963 to date, and which factors have contributed to their evolution. A full survey on all income-generating ...

Effect of Village Savings and Loan Associations on adoption of index-based crop insurance under limited liabilities
(2020-03-26)
A household survey and focus group discussions were conducted to quantify the general determinants of an index-based crop insurance adoption under limited liabilities in Burundi, and specifically the effect of existing Village Savings and Loan Associations (VSLAs). The survey sample comprised of 40 crop insurance adopters, 40 non-adopters and 40 drop-outs in Bukirasazi and Makebuko communes of Gitega province.
The results indicated that saving money (by VSLAs) for upcoming premium payments and regularly VSLA meetings ...

Universität und solidarische Ökonomie
(2008-11-24)
RESUMO: A economia solidária é aqui apresentada como um movimento social emancipatório e como uma das formas de resistências das trabalhadoras e trabalhadores ao modelo de desenvolvimento capitalista. O movimento contemporâneo de economia solidária abrange o processo de produção, comercialização e finanças. A economia solidária é caracterizada pela posse coletiva dos meios de produção e pelo controle dos trabalhadores dos empreendimentos através de autogestão, cooperação e solidariedade. Os empreendimentos econômicos ...
