The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) has access to experiences regarding agricultural change across the world. Together with the Japanese Government it was decided to compile experi ences from different places in the world, categorized by farming system, to make it easier for interested people to select ideas for their own circumstances. This document presents a sample of such technologies specifically intended for livestock keeping in urban areas. It describes the livestock production system in traditional sectors, and identifies constraints. Suggestions for improving production in the livestock sector are given and a literature list is included for further reference.
Professor Mayer's previous volume of collected studies looked at different aspects of the Crusading movement in the Holy Land and at its religious institutions, the main emphasis being on the documentary material, the proper understanding of which is essential for historical analysis. This concern is equally apparent in the present volume, but the focus now rests on the problems of government in the Latin kingdom of Jerusalem. He first deals with the monarchy as an institution and with the particular rulers, examining the theoretical basis of rulership and the actual realities of their position vis-à-vis the feudal nobility. The second section looks more closely at the subjects of the crown and their status. These studies also reveal the influence of the geographical situation of the Crusader states at the crossroads between the Latin, the Byzantine and the Islamic worlds.
Algebraical and Topological Foundations of Geometry contains the proceedings of the Colloquium on Algebraic and Topological Foundations of Geometry, held in Utrecht, the Netherlands in August 1959. The papers review the algebraical and topological foundations of geometry and cover topics ranging from the geometric algebra of the Möbius plane to the theory of parallels with applications to closed geodesies. Groups of homeomorphisms and topological descriptive planes are also discussed. Comprised of 26 chapters, this book introduces the reader to the theory of parallels with applications to closed geodesies; groups of homeomorphisms; complemented modular lattices; and topological descriptive planes. Subsequent chapters focus on collineation groups; exceptional algebras and exceptional groups; the connection between algebra and constructions with ruler and compasses; and the use of differential geometry and analytic group theory methods in foundations of geometry. Von Staudt projectivities of Moufang planes are also considered, and an axiomatic treatment of polar geometry is presented. This monograph will be of interest to students of mathematics.
Fortschritt und Fortschrittsbewusstsein sind als Werte in unserer Gesellschaft problematisch geworden. Gleichwohl waren und sind sie Wesensmerkmale unserer Kultur. Ein Blick in die Vergangenheit soll Rechenschaft ablegen über eine fundamentale Denkfigur des Okzidents. Er soll Ursprünge offen legen. Die Untersuchungen in diesem Sammelband zeigen, wie im Mittelalter das Fortschrittskonzept mit der Bindung an Traditionen zu vereinbaren war oder in Gegensatz geriet.
Der Dreiklang von Heimat, Vaterland und Europa stellt die Dimensionen des politischen Wirkens des Europapolitikers Hans-Gert Pöttering dar. Von der ersten Direktwahl 1979 bis zu seinem Ausscheiden im Jahr 2014 gehörte der CDU-Politiker dem Europäischen Parlament an, dessen Präsident er von 2007 bis 2009 war. In dieser Funktion, aber auch als Vorsitzender der EVP/ED-Fraktion zwischen 1999 und 2007, war Pöttering u.a. maßgeblich an der Erweiterung der Europäischen Union um die mittel- und osteuropäischen Staaten sowie am Zustandekommen des Vertrags von Lissabon beteiligt. Politische Weggefährten aus Niedersachsen, Deutschland und Europa, die Pöttering in den vergangenen vier Jahrzehnten begleitet haben, würdigen in dieser Festschrift sein Engagement für die Einigung Europas in Frieden und Freiheit.
