Abstract:

Unter Diversity (dt.: Vielfalt) wird die Heterogenität und Diversifizierung sozialer Lebenslagen und sozialer Zugehörigkeiten verstanden, die in Folge von unter anderem Migrationsbewegungen, veränderten Geschlechterbeziehungen und der Pluralisierung von Familienformen in westlichen Gesellschaften zunehmen bzw. stärker thematisiert werden als zuvor. Dabei ist eine Lesart vorherrschend, die Diversity als gesellschaftliche und besonders als ökonomische Ressource, als Potenzial, betrachtet.

Abstract:

Les changements globaux, du fait de l’empreinte humaine, sont associés à de nombreux déclins de populations et de disparitions d'espèces, et ce, notamment au sein des systèmes insulaires. L'importante biodiversité abritée par de tels écosystèmes est particulièrement vulnérable aux pressions anthropiques en raison de diverses caractéristiques (p. ex. syndrome d’insularité, faible redondance fonctionnelle, isolement géographique des îles). En dépit de cette vulnérabilité accrue, peu d’études se sont jusqu'à lors intéressées à ces systèmes comme modèle d’étude pour évaluer les patrons de menaces

Abstract:

Team diversity refers to the differences between team members on any attribute that may lead each single member of the group to perceive any other member of the group as being different from the self of this particular member. These attributes and perceptions refer to all dimensions people can differ on, such as age, gender, ethnicity, religious and functional background, personality, skills, abilities, beliefs, and attitudes.

Abstract:

Will Kymlicka’s seminal work on Multicultural Citizenship has done much to advance the case for minority rights worldwide. Agreeing with communitarians that culture is important, yet unwilling to relinquish liberal equality and fairness, Kymlicka builds on John Rawls’s monumental Theory of Justice to show group rights are not only accord with liberalism, but are its true fulfilment. Yet, while Kymlicka’s theory has received accolades for elegantly tying liberalism and culturalism together theoretically, it has been met with equal scepticism over the tenability of its praxis.

Abstract:

The sculptures I create reflect the elements of the natural world such as trees, the lumpy bush, clumps of turf. They have imperfect yet fascinating textures, picturesque in form, seemingly fractal in design, working together harmoniously to serve the aesthetic. My sculptures, like these natural shapes, are heavy or thicker toward the bottom and lighter toward the top, like a tree or stone. I strive to echo the mercurial, the animated natural surfaces, and the enticing vignettes one would experience on a woodland stroll.

De ekologiskt betydelsefulla småbiotoperna blir allt färre i det moderna jordbruket på grund av intensifieringen av jordbrukslandskapet som resulterat i ett allt mer fragmenterat landskap. För att kunna ge småbiotoper, såsom åkerholmar, ett optimalt skydd behövs flera studier om organismerna på holmarna, deras diversitet och spridning. I denna undersökning studeras artrikedomen av mossor och lavar på busk- och trädbekädda samt öppna åkerholmar i ett öppet- och ett skogsdominerat landskap. Analysen av artrikedom i studien tyder på att de finns fler arter av mossor och lavar i det öppna landskap

Pendant longtemps, la biodiversité était caractérisée uniquement par sa diversité taxonomique, c'est-à-dire par le nombre et la composition en espèces des assemblages.

Pour cela, la diversité fonctionnelle est un outil permettant de considérer les traits fonctionnels des espèces.

Abstract:

As British society becomes increasingly more diverse, the concept of managing organizational diversity has become progressively more relevant. Theoretical developments within this field have increasingly argued that the adoption of, and approach to, diversity management by organizations is based on either the business case arguments or the moral justification arguments or sometimes on a combination of both. However, insights integrating diversity management approaches with micro and macro-organizational influences remain conceptual. Furthermore, while theoretical developments in the field of d

Even though they have had a long history of being studied, their diversity has not yet been fully explored. The lack of a comprehensive reference database with up-to-date phylogeny also hinders any pursuits in understanding the ecological distribution of this group.

While the majority of literature written in regard to artist Romaine Brooks has focused on her portraiture of cross-dressing women, I intend to focus on other aspects of her oeuvre which are often neglected.

I have divided these works into four different categories: nudes, interior scenes, balcony scenes, and portraits. These paintings prove that while Brooks painted in a traditional fashion, she also subtly challenged the role of women in ar

Diversity of a country is often measured by the amount and spread of nationalities that live there. But also within a country, regions vary in their traditions and culture. Cultural homogeneity within communities is mixed up by (internal) migration, that, like international migration, increases diversity of a place. In a novel approach I therefore look at diversity in German municipality associations measured by different family names and investigate the effect it has on the number of generated patents.

For many combinatorial problems, finding a single solution is not enough. This is clearly the case for multi-objective optimisation problems, as they have no single “best solution” and, thus, it is useful to find a representation of the non-dominated solutions (the Pareto frontier). However, it also applies to single objective optimisation problems, where one may be interested in finding several (close to) optimal solutions that illustrate some form of diversity. The same applies to satisfaction problems. This is because models usually idealise the problem in some way, and a diverse pool of so

I takt med att medellivslängden ökar och att andelen personer med utländsk bakgrund växer behöver organisationer ha kunskap om hur de ska hantera mångfald. Detta för att de ska kunna ta tillvara på alla mänskliga resurser samt för att möta framtidens arbetskraftsbehov. Piteå Kommuns socialtjänst står idag inför denna utmaning och har valt att aktivt satsa på mångfald. Syftet med denna studie var därmed att undersöka hur chefer och bemanningsassistenter beskriver begreppet mångfald, hur de praktiskt arbetar med mångfald idag samt undersöka vilka krav de upplever finns på dem i mångfaldsarbetet.
