Language, Society and Power

An Introduction

By: Annabelle Mooney,Jean Stilwell Peccei,Suzanne LaBelle,Berit Engøy Henriksen,Eva Eppler,Anthea Irwin,Pia Pichler,Siân Preece,Satori Soden

Language, Society and Power is the essential introductory text for students studying language in a variety of social contexts. This book examines the ways in which language functions, how it influences thought and how it varies according to age, ethnicity, class and gender. It seeks to answer such questions as: How can a language reflect the status of children and older people? Do men and women talk differently? How can our use of language mark our ethnic identity? It also looks at language use in politics and the media and investigates how language affects and constructs our identities, exploring notions of correctness and attitudes towards language use. This third edition of this bestselling book has been completely revised to include recent developments in theory and research and offers the following features: a range of new and engaging international examples drawn from everyday life: beauty advertisements, conversation transcripts, newspaper headlines reporting on asylum seekers, language themed cartoons, and excerpts from the television programme South Park and satirical news website The Onion new activities designed to give students a real understanding of the topic a new chapter covering 'Student Projects' – giving readers suggestions on how to further explore the topics covered in the book updated and expanded further reading sections for each chapter and a glossary. While it can be used as a stand-alone text, this edition of Language, Society and Power has also been fully cross-referenced with the new companion title: The Language, Society and Power Reader. Together these books provide the complete resource for students of English language and linguistics, media, communication, cultural studies, sociology and psychology.

The book also features concise chapter summaries, suggestions for further reading, an inclusive glossary and two consolidation chapters which encourage students to secure their understanding of the English language. The dedicated companion website includes further exercises, answers and solutions to the exercises, as well as useful links.

Tax Reporting on Effective Tax Rate (IAS 12)

Interpretations, New Initiatives, International Best Practice and Correlations

By: Eva Frehner

In recent years, tax reporting on the effective tax rate ("ETR") of multinational enterprises has been widely debated. Annual reports presenting low ETRs created the impression that enterprises did not pay enough taxes compared to individuals or small and medium-sized businesses. Such financial reporting disclosures led to ongoing discussions about the suitability of the existing international tax system and gave rise to several global tax reforms initiated by the OECD. This study analyses the level of compliance with internationally applied best practice for tax reporting (on the ETR) under the IAS 12 in annual reports based on content analysis scores. It studies the correlations between the extent of compliance with tax reporting best practice and ETR values, market capitalisation, level of internationalisation, industry, and auditor. The author combines the empirical research with a normative approach and thus takes an inside-out perspective. The normative analysis interprets IAS 12 paragraphs in light of Swiss national and international tax law. Furthermore, the book discusses the impact of the OECD Global Minimum Tax Reform on tax disclosures and argues that the international tax reform will further increase the complexity of tax reporting.

Scientific Atheism in East Germany (1963-1990)

How to Turn a Hare into a Lion

By: Eva Guigo-Patzelt

This book offers an in-depth, archive-based analysis of “scientific atheism”, focused on the development of the field in the German Democratic Republic (GDR). Scientific atheism was established as a Soviet import in 1963 at Jena University, with a presence in East German universities, propaganda and politics for nearly 30 years. The chapters explore the sociological work done by scientific atheists such as Olof Klohr, how they defined religion and atheism, and their role as actors of atheisation in various fields. As well as reflecting on the specific religious and political context in East Germany, the author makes comparison with other communist-ruled countries. Drawing on extensive and unique documentation, this book will be of interest to scholars of atheism and secularism, religion and politics, religious history, German history and East European studies.

States Falling Apart?

Secessionist and Autonomy Movements in Europe

By: Eva Maria Belser,Alexandra Fang-Bär,Nina Massüger,Rekha Oleschak Pillai

An increasing number of European countries are being faced with demands for greater autonomy or independence from regional groups. The legitimacy of nation states in Europe is thus being called into question not only by the forces of globalization and Europeanization from above, but also by growing pressure to recognize the autonomous or independent status of regional groups from below. From Scotland to Catalonia, from Flanders to South Tyrol, the movements vary in their intensity and demands, yet also have many commonalities. This book constitutes a compilation of papers presented at the international Conference "States Falling Apart? Secessionist and Autonomy Movements in Europe" at the University of Fribourg in 2013 and is a timely addition to the literature on secession, autonomy and federalism. With theoretical contributions and case studies, it presents a wide range of opinions and facts on these issues.
