Diploma thesis is resume representing actaul residential situation in area of city Brno. It deals by comparing of ordinary chartered surveyor in individual part sof the city and view ganges of rent by looking on lacation, equipment and size of apartment. Gathered data are separated for apartments size of 1+1, 1+kk, 2+1, 2+kk, 3+1, 3+kk and bigger. Maping of market and its prices of rents is made by texts and graphics.

Diploma thesis on the subjekt ,,Apartment rent and the factors that influence it in a selected Brno lokativ“ is dedicated to the analysis and comparison of the amount of the rent in the offered flats in certain aboriginal sites. It deals with the factors that have an effect on the varying amount of the lease. The obtained data are divided into categories according to size, and 1+1 and 1+kk, 2+1, 2+kk, 3+1, 3+kk, 4+1 and 4+kk. For each category is created map. The results are summarized in tables and charts, and finally, evaluated and textually.

The aim of this study is to study the construction of literary values. I have been looking at how literature awarded with sponsored literary prizes has been reviewed in four major English and American newspapers. I have been studying the reception of literature by Ian McEwan, Hilary Mantel, Colm Tóibín and Zadie Smith between 2000 and 2012. The prizes in focus are the Man Booker Prize, the Orange prize for fiction and the Costa Awards. There seems to be an increasing number of articles related to each author after they have been awarded a prize, however with little change in the content of the reviews. The non critical articles seems to move towards a more personal angle. I have also found that critics tend to position the authors’ works in comparision to canonised authorships rather than discussing the literature as awarded.

This project examines the corpus of novels that have been nominated for the Man Booker Prize and, using the prize as a creator of a contemporary literary canon, attempts to develop a model of a contemporary best text. Using the distant reading techniques proposed by digital humanities scholar Franco Moretti to track and graph a variety of formal and structural variables across the corpus of nominees, it becomes apparent that the kind of novel that typically wins the Booker Prize and thus the kind of novel that qualifies as a contemporary best text fits a distinct mold. These novels are solemn, serious texts written by British or Irish men, and the stories they tell concern young British or Irish men struggling, often alone, in pain, and under the threat of impending age, through a brutal, violent, and amoral world.

The thesis is devoted to finding the percentage relationship between the advertised rent and the advertised price of commercial land in selected cities. Furthermore, determining the percentage relationship between the advertised rents and the price of commercial land price map.

ArcelorMittal Monlevade Steel works was motivated to study HPS (Hybrid Pelletized Sinter) process due to the similarity between the mix of iron ore from NKK Co and the natural fine iron ore from Andrade Mine owned by ArcelorMittal. The study began in the year 2000 and in the first quarter of 2002 the new plant facilities have started up with 100% of the Andrade sinter-feed (fine sinter-feed). Different characteristics in rawmaterials have introduced distortions in the original HPS technology in the Monlevade sinter plant. The fuel coating step of the original HPS could not be achieved in Monlevade plant. In this research, a study was carried out on the raw-materials effects in cold agglomeration phenomena and in the process conditions for establishing the conditions to recover the coke coating of the pristine HPS process. The burnt lime properties and its contribution to cold agglomeration were studied, reaching an increase in average size of the quasi-particles and in the sinter machine productivity.The other raw material such as limestone, serpentine, and manganese ore were studied and changes in size distribution (to increase the proportion of smaller fractions) were implemented aiming to improve the agglomeration performance. Laboratory and Industrial scale tests carried out in the Monlevade sinter plant yielded results showing that the changes made in the raw materials caused a positive and relevant outcome.
A ArcelorMittal Usina de Monlevade começou a estudar o processo de aglomeração a frio HPS (Hybrid Pelletized Sinter) a partir do ano de 2000 devido à semelhança entre a distribuição granulométrica do minério de ferro sinter-feed Andrade e a mistura de minérios utilizada pela NKK Co. No início do ano de 2002 a planta do HPS já estava entrando em regime de operação na Usina de Monlevade consumindo 100% do sinter-feed Andrade. Diferenças nas características das matérias-primas levaram a uma distorção do processo HPS na ArcelorMittal Monlevade em relação ao processo original da NKK Co, chegando a não ser possível em Monlevade a realização da etapa de recobrimento de combustível conforme previsto no projeto original. Nesta dissertação elaborou-se um minucioso estudo sobre a contribuição das matérias-primas na aglomeração a frio nas etapas do misturador e do disco de pelotização do HPS, visando criar condições para resgatar o recobrimento do combustível nas quase-partículas semelhante ao HPS original conforme idealizado pela equipe da NKK Co, atualmente JFE Steel Japão. Assim, foi possível observar a importância da cal virgem na aglomeração a frio, permitindo, após a adequação granulométrica desta, um ganho expressivo no tamanho médio da quase-partícula e na produtividade da sinterização. Outras mudanças executadas foram na distribuição granulométrica das matériasprimas: calcário, serpentinito e minério de manganês aumentando a quantidade das frações mais finas, mas mantendo-se as mesmas características do minério de ferrosinter-feed Andrade. Os ensaios em laboratório e testes industriais demonstraram a relevância dos resultados obtidos, causando impacto positivo na performance do processo HPS na Usina de Monlevade.

This study has the objective of exploring the possibility of utilizing alternative raw materials available in the country in the coal blends with high quality coals for producing high quality coke for the blast furnaces of Gerdau Acominas, Ouro Branco, Brasil.Characterization of the constituents of the blends (Low grade coal from Santa Catarina, Petroleum coke from REGAP Petrobras) has been carried out.Different blends were prepared with different percentages of the above with high grade coal were prepared and charged into the pilot furnace (carbolite furnace) of the Gerdau, Acominas and the coke produced was analyzed for different properties. The above pilot plant experiments were carried out for conventional cokemaking and also stamp charging of the coal blends.A mathematical model developed was taken as a reference for the quality of coke that would result in the prototype and this was used for predicting the coke properties on the basis of the pilot plant experiments.The results of the experiments show that it is possible to use noncoking coal of national origin up to 30 % in the coal blend with use of stamp charging to produce good quality coke for the blast furnaces, whereas in the conventional process only up to 10 % of the same can be used for maintaining the same quality.
Este estudo foi montado através de avaliação de matérias-primas alternativas nacionais (que juntamente com outros carvões minerais componentes da mistura, possam produzir um coque de qualidade requerida em altos-fornos com altas taxas de produtividade).Foram feitas caracterizações de carvões individuais e das misturas elaboradas, como também análise completa do coque produzido usando um forno de escala piloto (Modelo da 'Carbolite Furnace' para a Gerdau Açominas de 250kg de capacidade) pelo processo normal e pelo processo com compactação de carga 'stamp charging', e foram usados o coque verde petróleo da REGAP (Petrobrás) e carvão oriundo de Santa Catarina. As misturas foram montadas através de um modelo matemático de otimização nas quais foram levadas como premissa a qualidade do coque para alto-forno da Gerdau Açominas, e estas contemplaram até 30% desses insumos a serem testados. Os resultados foram avaliados e concluiu-se que para o processo de coqueificação convencional sem 'stamp charging' é possível usar na mistura até 10% de matéria-prima nacional não coqueificável, e para o processo que tenha compactação de carga essa proporção é elevada para 30%, para se ter um coque com qualidade desejável para um alto-forno de alta produtividade como o da Gerdau Açominas.

This dissertation analyzes the use of speech (prise de parole ) in Marguerite de Navarre's works of fiction in conjunction with the place that the arguments of the Quarrel about Women hold in her writings.
The texts of the Quarrel about Women, which were very popular in sixteenth century France, tried to prove the superiority or the inferiority of women depending on which side of the debate the writer belonged to. The works of Marguerite de Navarre incorporate numerous arguments of this literary debate to deconstruct them and establish a certain balance between the qualities and the defaults of men and women. Contrary to the writers of the Quarrel who were using as examples women from the Bible or the Antiquity, the Queen of Navarre's works portray mainly characters from daily life in situations that illustrate the way the two sexes use speech differently.
Thus, in the religious poems, women communicate more quickly with the divine because they listen more to their heart which is the receptacle of God. Indeed, the only obstacle that stands between them and mystical union resides in a too strong attachment to a human being, whereas men encounter more hindrances linked, among others, to ambition, science and lust. As for profane poems, they highlight the value of feminine friendship by presenting a free and equal verbal exchange, among women only, based on mutual aid. In the Heptameron, men, in the novellas, hold a greater power than women and it is mirrored in the efficiency of their prise de parole, while there is a certain equality, in the cornice, between the devisants of both sexes. Finally, in the theater, women as well as men deliver God's Word.
Speech which constitutes the most important meeting ground for men and women, in Marguerite's writings, demonstrates how the main criticism directed at women by the detractors of the Quarrel, their unstoppable and slanderous chattering, as well as many other faults are rejected by using examples of women that speak wisely. This makes Marguerite de Navarre's writings modern, because while they deconstruct the binary opposition of man versus woman, with everyday life examples, they do not propose to establish a new hierarchy and thus they are open to plurality.

Les prions sont des protéines qui suite à des changements de conformation acquièrent un caractère infectieux. Ils sont à l’origine de traits dominants, héritables de façon non-Mendélienne, chez les mammifères, les champignons filamenteux et les levures. Le mauvais repliement et l’agrégation des protéines sont à l’origine de plus de 40 maladies, parmi lesquelles on retrouve des maladies neurodégénératives telles que les maladies d’Alzheimer, de Parkinson et de Huntington. Il a été montré que les formes agrégées des protéines supposées responsables de ces maladies (i.e. peptide amyloïde-β, tau, α-synucléine, huntingtine) se propagent de cellule en cellule à la manière des prions. La levure Saccharomyces cerevisiae possède plusieurs prions qui sont autant d’excellents modèles biologiques pour la compréhension des mécanismes de formation et de propagation des prions.[PSI+] et [URE3], issus respectivement de la conversion sous forme prion du terminateur de la traduction Sup35p et d’un régulateur du métabolisme azoté Ure2p, sont à ce jour les deux prions les mieux documentés chez la levure. Les chaperons moléculaires et leurs co-chaperons modulent la formation, la réplication et la propagation des prions chez la levure. Cependant, l’élimination ou la dégradation de ces prions sont encore mal connus. Notre laboratoire a montré que le protéasome 26S est capable de dégrader les formes soluble et fibrillaire de Sup35p. Dans la première partie de ma thèse, nous avons étudié le rôle du protéasome 26S dans la dégradation des formes soluble et fibrillaire d’Ure2p. Nous avons montré que, comme pour Sup35p, le protéasome 26S dégrade Ure2p soluble en générant des peptides amyloïdes issus du domaine prion N-terminal ainsi qu’un fragment C-terminal résistant à la protéolyse. Nous avons montré que le domaine prion déstructuré est nécessaire pour la reconnaissance et la dégradation par le protéasome. Contrairement à ce qui avait été observé pour Sup35p, Ure2p sous sa forme fibrillaire est totalement résistante à la dégradation protéasomale. Nous suggérons que la variabilité structurale aux seins des particules de prions dans un contexte cellulaire dicte leurs interactions avec les machineries protéolytiques, et plus particulièrement avec le protéasome.Les prions de levure ont principalement été étudiés dans un contexte de cellules en division active. Cependant, dans la nature, la plupart des cellules sont retrouvées dans un état quiescent post-mitotique. Nous n’avons que très peu d’informations sur le devenir des particules de prions lorsque les cellules entrent dans un état quiescent. De même les conséquences physiologiques des prions sur la survie à long terme des levures sont très peu documentées. Dans la seconde partie de ma thèse, nous avons utilisé le prion [PSI+] comme modèle pour répondre à ces questions. Différentes conformations des agrégats de Sup35p conduisent à des souches phénotypiquement distinctes du prion [PSI+]. Nous avons constaté que les agrégats de Sup35p subissent des changements ultra-structuraux et fonctionnels au cours des différentes phases de croissance cellulaire. Ainsi, nous avons observés des changements importants dans la distribution de taille et dans l’infectiosité des polymères de Sup35p résistants au SDS formant les briques élémentaires du prion [PSI+]. Ces changements interviennent sans affecter les informations structurales spécifiques à chaque souche de prion [PSI+]. De façon remarquable, bien que [PSI+] n’affecte pas le taux de croissance des levures, ce prion semble prolonger significativement la durée de vie des levures. Cet effet bénéfique semble pouvoir se fixer de façon efficace et permanente dans les cellules et persister même après élimination de [PSI+]. La fixation génétique de caractéristiques épigénétiques induites par [PSI+] ont été déjà observées et l’ensemble de ces résultats suggère que [PSI+] (et éventuellement d’autres prions) peut jouer le rôle de capaciteurs évolutifs transitoires
“Proteinaceous infectious particles”, or prions, are self-perpetuating alternate conformations of proteins that are responsible for heritable non-Mendelian traits in mammals, filamentous fungi and yeast. On a more general note, protein misfolding and aggregation is at the origin of over forty protein folding disorders including devastating neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s or Huntington’s diseases. The aggregated proteins responsible for these diseases (i.e. amyloid-β peptide/tau, α-synuclein and huntingtin) were shown to propagate from cell to cell in a prion-like manner. The yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae hosts many prion or prion-like proteins, unrelated in sequence and function, which proved to be excellent models for understanding the dynamics of prion aggregation and distribution upon cell division.Sup35p and Ure2p which cause the [PSI+] and [URE3] heritable traits, respectively, stand out as the most studied and best characterized yeast prions to date. A plethora of cellular factors, mostly belonging to various molecular chaperone families, were shown to affect yeast prion formation and propagation. Clearance of protein aggregates and prion particles is however poorly understood and documented. Our laboratory showed that the 26S proteasome degrades both the soluble and prion-associated fibrillar forms of Sup35p. In the first part of my thesis, we investigated the role of the 26S proteasome in the degradation of the soluble and fibrillar forms of Ure2p. We found that, as with Sup35p, the 26S proteasome is able to degrade the soluble native Ure2p, generating an array of amyloidogenic N-terminal peptides and a C-terminal fragment which is resistant to proteolysis. The N-terminal prion domain was shown to act as a degron required for proteasomal engagement and degradation. In contrast to Sup35p, fibrillar Ure2p resisted proteasomal degradation. We expect the structural variability within prion assemblies in a cellular context to dictate their interaction with proteolytic machineries in general and the proteasome in particular.The biology of yeast prions has been mostly explored in the context of logarithmically dividing cells. In nature however, most cells are generally in a post-mitotic non-dividing quiescent state. Yet little is known about the fate and properties of prion particles upon yeast cells entry into the stationary or quiescent states and the physiological consequences of harboring these prions throughout the lifespan of yeast cells. In the second part of my thesis, we addressed this issue using the [PSI+] prion as a model. Structurally different conformers of Sup35p aggregates can lead to distinct [PSI+] strains with different prion phenotypes. We found that Sup35p prion particles undergo growth phase-dependent ultrastructural and functional changes. Indeed, the size distributions of SDS-resistant core-prion particles significantly change during growth without affecting the structural information specific to each prion strain. The infectious properties of Sup35p prion particles undergo dramatic growth phase-dependent changes. Importantly, we found that while [PSI+] has little to no effects on the growth rates of yeasts, it robustly prolongs their chronological lifespan. Furthermore, this beneficial effect can then be permanently and efficiently fixed in the cells even when [PSI+] is subsequently lost. Similar genetic fixation of [PSI+]-induced epigenetic characteristics were previously observed and suggested [PSI+] (and possibly other prions) can act as transient evolutionary capacitators

Roman Catholicism and Srivaiṣṇavism are two religious traditions in which mediation, primarily through the use of images, plays a central role in soteriology. A comparison of various modes of mediation between these two traditions will highlight a dialectic of presence and absence, inherent in mediation, and will examine the various ways of interpreting and dealing with this dialectic in their respective theologies. Three general categories of mediation are identified through which this comparison will take place: God, saint, and priest.
Images of the full presence of God, namely the eucharistic host in Roman Catholicism and the arcavatara in Srivaiṣṇavism, mediate this full presence either through the transformation of substance (as in Roman Catholicism) or through the appearance of materiality and limited form (in Srivaiṣṇavism). Saints and alvars can also be regarded as images or mediatory modes; the saint embodies and mediates Christ's presence, becoming "as if" Christ. This presence is manifested not only in the saint's life but in his or her relics as well. The alvar is regarded as an aṁsa or partial incarnation, thus manifesting a part of God, most notably His ornaments, weapons and companions.
A specific comparison of Mary and Aṇṭaḷ/Sri will further highlight the dialectic of presence and absence in addition to pointing out their unique status within their respective traditions. A comparison of priests and acaryas will show mediation in living images. Priests become "as if" Christ through their ordination, and are seen to embody him particularly in specific ritual acts. The acarya functions in much the same way as Aṇṭaḷ/Sri, mediating between God and the believer as an aṁsa or partial incarnation.
Different theological conceptions of God and incarnation result in the different understandings of mediation and the different ways that the two traditions deal with the dialectic of presence and absence. Images in both traditions also bring to light an "as if" conception in the mind of the believer; saints and priests function "as if" Christ and the various images in Srivaiṣṇaavism appear "as if" material or "as if" human, thus allowing them to mediate the divine presence to the community.

La recherche présentée porte sur l’expérience pluridimensionnelle des travailleuses et des travailleurs aux prises avec l’obsolescence professionnelle ainsi que les stratégies d’adaptation qu’ils mettent en œuvre pour réguler le manque de connaissances et de compétences, le manque de motivation et la perte d’efficacité au travail; les trois symptômes d’obsolescence faisant consensus dans la littérature scientifique et ayant servi à la première sélection des sujets. Les résultats sont issus d’une analyse primaire des données. L’analyse permet de faire ressortir que l’obsolescence professionnelle se répartit en deux phases : la première désigne l’incubateur de l’obsolescence professionnelle et se nomme Zone d’obsolescence et la deuxième représente le noyau de l’obsolescence professionnelle et ledit syndrome, que l’on appelle État d’obsolescence. Ces phases comprennent des facteurs internes et externes, qui seraient généralement interdépendants, ainsi que leurs symptômes sous-jacents. Aussi, on regroupe des variations affectives et comportementales par phases et des variations de la perception envers les changements technologiques entre les deux phases. De plus, chez ces personnes, il appert que la responsabilité de la formation est vue principalement comme étant celle de l’organisation et que l’ampleur du « mal-être » au travail se déploie subtilement sur le plan psychosomatique. L’analyse montre aussi que l’obsolescence professionnelle amène des stratégies d’adaptation affectant négativement l’autogestion de la sphère professionnelle. En ce sens, on observe des différences quant aux choix des stratégies d’adaptation, à leur retrait et à la façon de les utiliser, et ce, à l’intérieur de leur répartition selon si elles se manifestent en Zone d’obsolescence ou en État d’obsolescence. On peut donc penser qu’une régularisation des problèmes de la sphère professionnelle se mobilise chez ces personnes afin de maintenir leur cohésion interne par des mécanismes d’autoprotection, donc de désinvestissement professionnel ou de repli sur soi.

Cette thèse analyse la relation entre les pratiques policières quotidiennes et la conformation avec la police militaire de l'Etat de São Paulo, responsable pour mantenir l’ordre. Issu d’entretiens et d’analyses de données officielles, le présent travail cherche à comprendre comment les policiers, lors de leurs opérations, sélectionnent les personnes qui subiront les actions de la police et, par conséquent, celles du système de justice criminelle. Partant de là, il a été possible de comprendre, de manière plus particulier, quels sont les publics et les crimes les plus surveillés par les policiers militarisés et, d'une manière globale, les caractéristiques du modèle de police ostensible de São Paulo. L'objectif des opérations policières ostensibles est de prendre en flagrant délit des suspects criminels, ce qui confère à la Police Militaire la responsabilité de sélectionner et « d’expulser » des rues tous ceux que les policiers identifient comme des criminels. Cela autorise la Police Militaire à avoir recours notamment à trois actions : a) l’arrestation ou b) l’élimination des personnes identifiées comme des criminelles et c) le « bon sens » du policier en tant qu’outil pour distinguer les criminels et les « bons citoyens ». Une des conclusions de cette recherche repose sur le constat d’un ample usage du « bon sens » policier lors des opérations de vigilance ostensible, ainsi que de son aspect racial. De ce fait, le « bon sens » policier, au même titre que la létalité et les arrestations, est devenu le responsable de l’accumulation de désavantages pour la population jeune et noire, en ce qui concerne le droit à la vie en sécurité ; en effet on observe que ce groupe risque beaucoup plus d’aller en prison que le reste de la population. De plus, nous avons constaté que pendant les vingt dernières années la politique sécuritaire menée dans São Paulo s’est focalisé sur le type de vigilance ostensible décrit ci-dessus, et ce en dépit de l’échec de l’opération pour ce qui concerne la diminution du nombre de crimes contre les biens à São Paulo.
This thesis analyzes the relation between daily police practices and the conformation with ostensible policing run by the Military Police of São Paulo State. This work started from interviews and analysis of official data to understand how the Military Police, during the ostensible policing, selects the people who will suffer the police approach and therefore the prosecution of the criminal justice system. Thenceforth it was possible to understand specifically which public and which crimes were most closely watched by the military police and, in an embracing way, the characteristics of the São Paulo ostensible policing model. The purpose of ostensible policing is to catch criminal suspects, implying to the Military Police the responsibility to select and remove from the streets those who the police itself identifies as “bandits”. It is also observed that this framework does not configure a public security policy, but a crime and violence management, marked by the "war" against certain types of crimes that are available to the Military Police, especially with three features: a) imprisonment; b) elimination of those identified as “bandits”, and c) the “police scent” as a differentiation tool to identify "bandits" and "good citizens". One of the study highlights is that the wide use of the “police scent” by the military police which has racial aspects in its composition added to the lethality and imprisonment, became responsible for the accumulation of disadvantages for the young black population, referring to the right to secure life and a higher risk of being arrested for property offenses in relation to the rest of the population. In all, it became clear that in the last twenty years there is an insistence from the state public security in an ostensible policing with such characteristics, even in the face of failure in the decrease of numbers of property offenses in the state of São Paulo.
A tese analisa a articulação entre práticas policiais cotidianas e a conformação do policiamento ostensivo militarizado protagonizado pela Polícia Militar. O presente trabalho partiu de entrevistas e análise de dados oficiais da segurança pública paulista para compreender como os policiais, durante o policiamento ostensivo, selecionam as pessoas que sofrerão as investidas da polícia e, por conseguinte, do sistema de justiça criminal. A partir daí foi possível entender, de forma específica, quais são os públicos e os crimes mais vigiados pelos policiais militares e, de forma abrangente, as características do modelo de policiamento ostensivo paulista. Constatou-se que o objetivo do policiamento ostensivo é flagrar suspeitos criminais, o que incute à PM a responsabilidade de selecionar e “retirar” das ruas aqueles que os policiais identificam como “bandidos”. Para tal estão disponíveis à PM, sobretudo, três recursos: a) o aprisionamento ou b) a eliminação daqueles identificados como bandidos e c) o tirocínio policial enquanto ferramenta para diferenciar “bandidos” e “cidadãos de bem”. Uma das conclusões da pesquisa é a constatação da ampla utilização do tirocínio pelos policiais que atuam no policiamento ostensivo e de seu aspecto racializado; isto significa que, para a fundamentação da suspeita policial, são utilizados marcadores raciais. Desta forma, o tirocínio, ao lado da letalidade policial e do aprisionamento se tornaram responsáveis pelo acúmulo de desvantagens para a população jovem e negra, no que tange ao direito à vida segura e a um maior risco de serem presos por crimes patrimoniais em relação ao restante da população. No mais, constatou-se que nos últimos vinte anos há uma insistência por parte da segurança pública paulista num policiamento ostensivo com tais características, mesmo diante do insucesso na diminuição no número de crimes patrimoniais no estado de São Paulo.

The dissertation is focused on current issues in the connection with the rental price of land and construction land maps, which are addressed to practice. It deals with an overview of the development of rental and price charts in the Czech Republic and abroad. The basic precondition of the dissertation is the existence of data dealing with the relationship between rents and the usual (market, global) price of land in the price map in the Czech Republic. This area, the relationship of rents and land prices, has not yet been fully explored. The unavailability of this data can result in questioning the expert opinions for example in court proceedings. The conclusions of the dissertation illustrate, how interdependent ground rent with the price specified in price map constructions of land. The percentage of the relation I have determined to both individual cities (Prague, Brno, Olomouc), and all the Czech Republic as a whole.

Tesis

Diese Arbeit bietet eine solide theoretische Grundlage zu Philanthropie und religiös motivierten Spendenaktivitäten und deren Einfluss auf Wohltätigkeitstrends, Entwicklungszusammenarbeit und einer auf dem Gedanken der sozialen Gerechtigkeit beruhenden Philanthropie. Untersucht werden dafür die Strukturen religiös motivierte Spenden, für die in der islamischen Tradition die Begriffe „zakat“, „Waqf“ oder im Plural auch „awqaf-“ oder „Sadaqa“ verwendet werden, der christliche Begriff dafür lautet „tithes“ oder „ushour“. Aufbauend auf diesem theoretischen Rahmenwerk analysiert die qualitative und quantitative Feldstudie auf nationaler Ebene, wie die ägyptische Öffentlichkeit Philanthropie, soziale Gerechtigkeit, Menschenrechte, Spenden, Freiwilligenarbeit und andere Konzepte des zivilgesellschaftlichen Engagements wahrnimmt. Um eine umfassende und repräsentative Datengrundlage zu erhalten, wurden 2000 Haushalte, 200 zivilgesellschaftliche Organisationen erfasst, sowie Spender, Empfänger, religiöse Wohltäter und andere Akteure interviewt. Die so gewonnen Erkenntnisse lassen aussagekräftige Aufschlüsse über philanthropische Trends zu. Erstmals wird so auch eine finanzielle Einschätzung und Bewertung der Aktivitäten im lokalen Wohltätigkeitsbereich möglich, die sich auf mehr als eine Billion US-Dollar beziffern lassen. Die Erhebung weist nach, dass gemessen an den Pro-Kopf-Aufwendungen die privaten Spendenaktivitäten weitaus wichtiger sind als auswärtige wirtschaftliche Hilfe für Ägypten. Das wiederum lässt Rückschlüsse zu, welche Bedeutung lokale Wohltätigkeit erlangen kann, wenn sie richtig gesteuert wird und nicht wie bislang oft im Teufelskreis von ad-hoc-Spenden oder Hilfen von Privatperson an Privatperson gefangen ist. Die Studie stellt außerdem eine Verbindung her zwischen lokalen Wohltätigkeits-Mechanismen, die meist auf religiösen und kulturellen Werten beruhen, und modernen Strukturen, wie etwa Gemeinde-Stiftungen oder Gemeinde-„waqf“, innerhalb derer die Spenden eine nachhaltige Veränderung bewirken können. Daher bietet diese Arbeit also eine umfassende wissenschaftliche Grundlage, die nicht nur ein besseres Verständnis, sondern auch den nachhaltiger Aus- und Aufbau lokaler Wohltätigkeitsstrukturen in Ägypten ermöglicht. Zentral ist dabei vor allem die Rolle lokaler, individueller Spenden, die beispielsweise für Stiftungen auf der Gemeindeebene eingesetzt, wesentlich zu einer nachhaltigen Entwicklung beitragen könnten – und das nicht nur in Ägypten, sondern in der gesamten arabischen Region. Als konkretes Ergebnis dieser Arbeit, wurde ein innovatives Modell entwickelt, dass neben den wissenschaftlichen Daten das Konzept der „waqf“ berücksichtigt. Der Wissenschaftlerin und einem engagierten Vorstand ist es auf dieser Grundlage gelungen, die Waqfeyat al Maadi Community Foundation (WMCF) zu gründen, die nicht nur ein Modell für eine Bürgerstiftung ist, sondern auch das tradierte Konzept der „waqf“ als praktikable und verbürgte Wohlstätigkeitsstruktur sinnvoll weiterentwickelt.
This work provides a solid theoretical base on philanthropy, religious giving (Islamic zakat, ‘ushour, Waqf -plural: awqaf-, Sadaqa and Christian tithes or ‘ushour), and their implications on giving trends, development work, social justice philanthropy. The field study (quantitative and qualitative) that supports the theoretical framework reflects at a national level the Egyptian public’s perceptions on philanthropy, social justice, human rights, giving and volunteering and other concepts that determine the peoples’ civic engagement. The statistics cover 2000 households, 200 Civil Society Organizations distributed all over Egypt and interviews donors, recipients, religious people and other stakeholders. The numbers reflect philanthropic trends and for the first time provide a monetary estimate of local philanthropy of over USD 1 Billion annually. The survey proves that the per capita share of philanthropy outweighs the per capita share of foreign economic assistance to Egypt, which implies the significance of local giving if properly channeled, and not as it is actually consumed in the vicious circle of ad-hoc, person to person charity. In addition, the study relates local giving mechanisms derived from religion and culture to modern actual structures, like community foundations or community waqf that could bring about sustainable change in the communities. In sum, the work provides a comprehensive scientific base to help understand- and build on local philanthropy in Egypt. It explores the role that local individual giving could play in achieving sustainable development and building a new wave of community foundations not only in Egypt but in the Arab region at large. As a tangible result of this thesis, an innovative model that revives the concept of waqf and builds on the study’s results was created by the researcher and a dedicated board of trustees who succeeded in establishing Waqfeyat al Maadi Community Foundation (WMCF) that not only introduces the community foundation model to Egypt, but revives and modernizes the waqf as a practical authentic philanthropic structure.

Testing purchasing power parity is one of the most studied topics in international economics. Due to different time spans chosen, econometric methods used, and price indices adopted, there is no clear-cut conclusion whether or not PPP holds. One reason for this is that price indices are composed of different baskets of goods for different countries; therefore they are not directly comparable via exchange rates. Big Mac prices (published by The Economist since 1986) offer a unique opportunity to investigate PPP directly. This paper tests the law of one price using panel data estimation to exploit all the available information. Following the empirical methods implemented to test general PPP, two empirical test results are presented. The first considers relative Big Mac prices regressed on exchange rates, and the second is a panel unit root test of the real exchange rate based on Big Mac prices. The first test indicates that results are sensitive to the choice of different time intervals. In particular, for time periods up to 1996, the between-effect model and the random-effect model support PPP rather well. Using a different numeraire (US dollar or German mark) seems not to affect results, as is implied in the general PPP tests. The second test indicates that there is a mean reversion of the real exchange rate. The estimated half-life of the adjustment back to Macparity takes about 1 to 2 years, which is faster than what the general PPP predicts.

The water price in Taiwan has not changed for 20 years since 1994. In 2013, the average cost of water sold per cubic meter was NT$ 11.13, but the average selling price was only NT$ 10.93. The low water price strategy makes not only the Taiwan Water Corporation operate inefficiently, but also gives Taiwanese people less incentive to save water. This study deflates the water prices published by the International Water Association (IWA) in 2011 and GDP per capita by the Big Mac index and Purchasing Power Parity (PPP) index. The deflated statistics of 30 countries show that the water price in Taiwan is relatively low. The estimation results show that the deflated water prices and GDP per capita across countries are significantly positively correlated. The predicted water price of Taiwan is NTD 23.53. The IWA statistics also show that the higher the water price, the lower the water consumption. The study suggests that reasonably increasing the water price could make people save water and solve the water shortage problem in Taiwan.

The work is engaged in pastoral care of ill people in the hospitals in Czech Republic. The theoretic part shows up the concept of illness, basic needs of ill people and the concept of pastoral care of ill people in the view of chosen authors. The practical part contains the comparison of two forms of pastoral care of ill people. It is the service of five pastoral assistants, who are exercising their service in hospitals, and the service of five priests, who are visiting hospitals within their service in parishes. The pastoral assistants work in hospital four up to eight hours a day during working days and they exercise the pastoral care in the form of accompanying of ill people {--} that means they are in a dialogue with ill people and they participate in their life situations. The priests visit hospitals mainly in order to sacrament dispense. By the confrontation of the service of both groups of persons involved in pastoral care of ill people with that, what chosen authors write about this service, appeared that only the pastoral assistants fulfil the intention of the pastoral care of ill people, that is the accompanying of ill people in their difficult situation of illness.

Satire and counsel recur together in the secular literature of the High and Late Middle Ages. I analyze their collocation in Latin, Old Occitan, and Middle English texts from the twelfth to the fifteenth century in works by Walter Map, Alan of Lille, John of Salisbury, Daniel of Beccles, John Gower, William of Poitiers, Thomas Hoccleve, and John Skelton. As types of discourse, satire and counsel resemble each other in the way they reproduce scenarios of social interaction. Authors combine satire and counsel to reproduce these scenarios according to the protocols of real-life social interaction. Informed by linguistic pragmatics, discourse analysis, sociolinguistics and cultural anthropology, I examine the relational rhetoric of these texts to uncover a sometimes complex and reflective ethical discourse on power which sometimes implicates itself in the practices it condemns. The dissertation draws throughout on sociolinguistic methods for examining verbal interaction between unequals, and assesses what this focus can contribute to recent scholarly debates on the interrelation of social and literary practices in the later Middle Ages. In the first chapter I introduce the concepts and methodologies that inform this dissertation through a detailed consideration of Distinction One of Walter Map’s De nugis curialium . While looking at how Walter Map combines discourses of satire and counsel to negotiate a new social role for the learned cleric at court, I advocate treating satire as a mode of expression more general than ‘literary’ genre and introduce the iii theories and methods that inform my treatment of literary texts as social interaction, considering also how these approaches can complement new historicist interpretation. Chapter two looks at how twelfth-century authors of didactic poetry appropriate relational discourses from school and household to claim the authoritative roles of teacher and father. In the third chapter, I focus on texts that depict relations between princes and courtiers, especially the Prologue of the Confessio Amantis which idealizes its author John Gower as an honest counselor and depicts King Richard II (in its first recension) as receptive to honest counsel. The fourth chapter turns to poets with the uncertain social identities of literate functionaries at court. Articulating their alienation and satirizing the ploys of courtiers—including even satire itself—Thomas Hoccleve in the Regement of Princes and John Skelton in The Bowge of Court undermine the satirist-counselor’s claim to authenticity. In concluding, I consider how this study revises understanding of the genre of satire in the Middle Ages and what such an approach might contribute to the study of Jean de Meun and Geoffrey Chaucer.
