Seminar paper from the year 2007 in the subject American Studies - Literature, grade: 1.0, Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz (Department of English and Linguistics), course: The Rhyme and Reason of American Poetry, 20 entries in the bibliography, language: English, abstract: Philip Freneau was one of the most discussed poets of the late eighteenth century. On one hand he was celebrated as the "Poet of the American Revolution" (Eberwein 191) or the "Father of American Poetry" (Stauffer 52), a journalist of influence, a patriot and skilful writer, on the other hand he was forgotten for a long time. How did Philip Freneau see himself? What were his targets and how did he try to reach them? This paper examines Freneau's look on his role as an author on his poetry and plans. What kind of influences affected or promoted his career? Regarding his own poems "To an Author", "The City Poet" and "To a New England Poet" his description of an author's life - and therefore his life - will become apparent. Furthermore, a closer look on his contemporaries, the Connecticut Wits, especially Dwight, Barlow and Bryant will display how independent and original Freneau's writing was, and what kind of relationships he had towards these American authors. At the same time his relationship towards British poets is interesting: He thought he rejected most of their writing; but was he really not influenced by them at all? Could it be that he sometimes even copied parts of their work? After having a short look on other intertextual influences like Greek mythology, verses from the Bible and Classic forms, this paper will look back on his life in a retrospective way and analyse his attitude towards himself. Did Freneau manage to reach his goals or did he lose sight of them?

Seminar paper from the year 2006 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Literature, grade: 1,0, University College Dublin (Faculty of Arts; School of English and Drama), course: Gulliver's Travels, 8 entries in the bibliography, language: English, abstract: In 1726 Jonathan Swift published Gulliver's Travels, a book which on the surface appeared to be a travel log to chronicle the adventures of Lemuel Gulliver on his voyages to four separate countries, but primarily serves as a satire on different aspects of human society and humankind itself. Swift's main purpose in using the satirical element in this book, as well as in most of his other works, is to "(...) vex the world rather than divert it (...)" (Swift 264) and thus to appeal to human's ability to change situations for the better. This believe derived from Swift's misanthropic worldview, not in the sense that he didn't have faith in human nature and had given up on any notion of ideals, but he rather, arisen out of disappointment in humankind, believed that man nevertheless was capable of reform. Swift himself laid bare his radically negative view of human beings in a letter to his friend Alexander Pope in 1725: "I have ever hated all Nations professions and Communityes and all my love is towards individualls for instance I hate the tribe of Lawyers, but I love Councellor such a one (...) and the rest principally I hate and detest that animal called man, although I hartily love John, Peter, Thomas and so forth." (Swift 264/ 265) Accordingly Swift's focus lies on the individual himself to realize unjust circumstances and to change them by acting. In order to achieve changes in society or even in human beings themselves, Swift makes use of different satirical techniques, which will be closer looked at in each of the four books of Gulliver's Travels, paying attention to Swifts targets and consequently to the effectiveness of his satire.

Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2005 im Fachbereich BWL - Controlling, Note: 1,7, Hochschule für Technik, Wirtschaft und Kultur Leipzig, Veranstaltung: Studienschwerpunkt - Rechnungswesen / ControllingStudienschwerpunkt - Rechnungswesen / Controlling, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Infolge der wirtschaftlichen Entwicklung in den letzten Jahrzehnten stehen die Unternehmen heute einem vollkommen veränderten Wettbewerb gegenüber. Als Grund hierfür ist der im Rahmen der Globalisierung zunehmende Konkurrenzkampf und der damit verbundene steigende Kostendruck anzuführen. Zusätzlich nimmt der Kunde durch die Wandlung vom Verkäufer- hin zum Käufermarkt eine immer stärkere Rolle ein. Kosten, Qualität, Innovationsdenken und Zeit werden somit zu den wichtigsten Erfolgsfaktoren. Auch die Kostenrechnung muss sich dieser neuen Situation anpassen. Die traditionelle Kostenarten-, Kostenstellen- und Kostenträgerrechnung reicht dazu nicht mehr aus. Durch ihre Vergangenheitsorientierung kann sie erst dann angewendet werden, wenn die Produkte bereits konzipiert und die Fertigungsverfahren festgelegt sind. Ermittelt werden dann lediglich Kostenabweichungen. In den ersten 20 % der Produktentwicklung werden jedoch bereits 80 % der später anfallenden Kosten determiniert. Modernere Ansätze des Kostenmanagement versuchen diesem Anspruch gerecht zu werden. Sie ergänzen die traditionelle Kostenrechnung um Instrumente, die die kundenorientierte Kostengestaltung bereits in den frühen Phasen ermöglichen. Target Costing ist ein Element dieses beschriebenen Instrumentariums. Durch die vorliegende Arbeit soll schwerpunktmässig die dabei zu berücksichtigende Vorgehensweise beleuchtet werden. Weiterhin zeigt sie auf, inwiefern eine Anwendung die gestellten Anforderungen erfüllen kann. Nach einer Begriffsdefinition und Aussagen zu den Grundlagen des Target Costing wird eine konkrete Handlungsanleitung zur Vorgehensweise dargelegt und durch ein zielführendes Beispiel unterstrichen. Der kritischen Würdigung folgt dann ein abschliessendes Fazit.

Seminar paper from the year 2006 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Other, grade: 1,0, Humboldt-University of Berlin (Anglistik und Amerikanistik), course: Presentation Practice, 10 entries in the bibliography, language: English, abstract: Bei dieser Arbeit handelt es sich um die schriftliche Ausarbeitung eines Referates zum Thema "Sterbehilfe" (engl. "euthanasia") in englischer Sprache. "Sterbehilfe" ist ein in Deutschland vieldiskutiertes und zum Teil auch negativ konnotiertes Thema. Die Gesetze und praktischen Handhabungen in den europäischen Ländern sind sehr unterschiedlich. In dem Referat geht es zunächst um eine Klärung des Begriffs "Sterbehilfe" und wie sich dieser im Laufe der Geschichte teilweise verändert hat. Anschliessend werden zu unterscheidende Formen von Sterbehilfe vorgestellt und auf die Situation in Deutschland und betroffene Gesetze eingegangen. Die "Patientenverfügung" wird dabei angesprochen. Auch die zum Teil divergierende gesetzliche Situation in anderen europäischen Ländern wird präsentiert. Ausserdem werden mögliche Alternativen zur Sterbehilfe und mit Sterbehilfe verbundene "Schwierigkeiten" angesprochen. Anschliessend werden Pro- und Contra-Argumente der Befürworter und Gegner von Sterbehilfe vorgestellt, und am Ende zieht die Referentin ein persönliches Resümee. Auch zwei bekannte Fälle von Sterbehilfe, die für lebhafte Diskussionen in Deutschland sorg(t)en wurden im Zuge des Referates vorgestellt. Ziel des Referates war es, über das Thema "Sterbehilfe" grundsätzlich zu informieren, jedoch auch zum Nachdenken und zum Diskutieren anzuregen.

Seminar paper from the year 2009 in the subject Economics - Macro-economics, general, grade: 1,0, Berlin School of Economics, course: Arbeitsmärkte und Sozialstaat in Europa, language: English, abstract: Though EU commissar ¿pidla speaks, in 2006, about a ¿demographic time bomb¿ which needs to be disarmed1, a study suggests that back in 2003 52 percent of the German population has not even heard about the term ¿demographic change.¿ Even if these figures are a bit outdated they show that discussion concerning this topic continues between experts and politicians and has been a long-time taking to reach the broader populace. Nowadays, word has spread. The topic has become more pressing on political agendas, national and international summits. In the 2007 Adecco Fitness Survey, European companies invision the demographic change as the second biggest business challenge, following Globalization. The UN has been pressing the issue of ageing populations since the 1940s and forecasts that the number of people over 60 years old will have tripled by 2050. For the first time in history, this figure will exceed that of the number of children (0 ¿ 14 years). However, these aggregated figures do not show that these developments have taken place differently across the globe. Europe is experiencing the most rapid ageing, and the number of old people is already higher than the number of young people. This may explain why demographic change now has such a high priority in EU policies. Nico van Nimwegen, deputy director of the Netherlands Interdisciplinary Demographic Institute notes that the ageing problem is the dominant challenge the EU is facing. He sees the implications of this trend and the need for action and policy change in various areas. Employment has been recognized as one of these target areas. The ageing of the population has important repercussions on the available labor force and thus impacts economic prospects as a whole. This paper will analyze demographic changes and their impacts on the labor markets. It will begin with an overview of Europe¿s demographic development and its driving forces. The subsequent impacts on the labor force will then be discussed followed by an overview of different proposed policy options and how they could help circumvent the consequences of demographic change. Here the goal shall not be to detail single policy measures, but to unveil areas in which policy action needs to be considered. Particular policies have to be chosen carefully by each country in accordance to its individual situation and institutional framework. Finally, the findings of this paper will be reviewed and a final conclusion will be given.

Diploma Thesis from the year 2009 in the subject Landscape Management, grade: Sehr gut, University of Natural Resources and Applied Life Sciences, Vienna, language: English, abstract: Although China cultural as well as political is opening up since about thirty years, the Chinese manner of cerebration, except of few exemptions, has still keep refused most people in the western world. Primarily this has to do with the ancient Chinese ideology self. The Chinese, who are calling their country ¿The Empire of the Middle¿, were on principle in the past rarely attempted to leave their nation because the remaining world for them was not really livable. Outside the boundaries, there lived the so called barbarians, who in ancient times mostly were embodied by brutal Mongolian tribes, who martially tried to infiltrate China and from them the Chinese had to protect. So, they created their own world, a world in the world, enclosed by the thousands of meters long Great Wall (Chang Cheng), inside of they felt confident and could develop further. This retirement in an enclosed space and last but not least the retirement in oneself paved finally the way for their private gardens, in which they could undisturbed find an access to a better ¿world¿. This essay will deal with these little enclosed garden worlds, these micro-cosmos in a macro-cosmos. This work consists of a searching for their history and the holistically ¿religious¿ backgrounds, which first made enable these small but coevally ¿infinite¿ universes. It get to the bottom of the correlations between time and space, establish relationships between narrow and open, bright and dark, and last but not least inside and outside, which all are parts of an all-containing, super-ordinate ¿Great¿. It makes close connections to landscape paintings and the gardens self, which as major motif threads through the whole text, will find out that they are close correlated to the ¿Great¿ and grapple with the centre of the ¿Whole¿, with the ¿Zero-Perspective¿ or the ¿Vapidness¿, in which the human as important part at least can dive in to touch the sky. Of course also the framework of a Chinese private garden, the several elements, are considered, without them no garden could exist. The role and the important task of their walls will be bespoken, the several constructions of their buildings and last but not least the close to the human correlated plants. All this aspects will be picked up again at a walkabout through three famous Chinese gardens in Suzhou, where the mindfully reader finally will notice, that size does not necessarily count in architectural garden space.

Bachelor Thesis from the year 2008 in the subject Philosophy - Miscellaneous, grade: A+, University of Pittsburgh (USA), course: Senior Seminar in the History and Philosophy of Science, language: English, abstract: Most biologists resist positive claims about Lamarckian modes of inheritance, as they perceive such claims as threatening the hegemony of the Darwinian paradigm in which they operate. However, this hesitance may be misguided and unconstructive, should it arise from misconceptions about the relationship between contemporary ¿Lamarckian¿ discoveries and the views which Lamarck himself actually held. Given the recent revitalization of interest in Lamarckian evolutionary perspectives (Cairns et al. 1988, Hall 1991, Ewer 1996, 2004; Steele 1979, 1998; Jablonka and Lamb 2007), and the lingering ambiguity concerning what constitutes Lamarckian theses, it would be prudent to evaluate the relationship between contemporary Lamarckian theses and traditional Lamarckian positions. Scientists working in evolutionary fields tend to label as ¿Lamarckian¿ any claims that imply the inheritance of somatic mutations; adaptations derived through interaction between the organism and environment, and subsequently passed to offspring (the most famous example being the giraffe stretching its legs and neck to reach higher leaves). However, the relationship connecting contemporary ¿Neo-Lamarckian¿ ideas and traditional Lamarckian ideas is dubious at best, and conceptually misleading at worst, both for working scientists and casual laymen. For example, traditional Lamarckian inheritance acts through the whole organism or its parts, while modern Lamarckian inheritance tends to act on individual cells or even whole populations. The invocation of the label ¿Lamarckian¿ carries historical and conceptual baggage that I would like to disambiguate from recent, supposedly ¿Lamarckian¿ modes of inheritance. To accomplish this, I will reveal and clarify the evolutionary claims that Lamarck himself published, most notably in Jean-Batiste Lamarck¿s Philosophie Zoologique, and evaluate the relationship between his traditional claims, and more recent claims labeled as ¿Lamarckian¿ by contemporary scientists. This paper will provide an analysis of the conceptual interplay occurring between modern Lamarckian claims, and what Lamarck actually believed and published, via an investigation of the evolution of the term Lamarckian/Lamarckism from 1809 to the present; my conclusion, then, should be a fair appraisal of the relationship existing between Lamarck¿s actual claims and contemporary Neo-Lamarckian claims.

Seminar paper from the year 2007 in the subject American Studies - Literature, grade: 3,0, University of Marburg (Institut für Anglistik und Amerikanistik), course: Transatlantic Stereotyping - Views From / About Both Sides of the Ocean, language: English, abstract: Criticism of Bryson¿s novels is not advanced but his narratives can be investigated in terms of genre, intertextuality, language, and nationality. This paper expands on the topic of Bryson¿s view both of Great Britain and the United States of America by means of national stereotyping as it emerges from his novels Notes from a Small Island (1995) and Notes from a Big Country (1998). I maintain that Bryson depicts Britain and America in an authentic and educative as well as hilarious and exaggerated manner to emphasize differences between the nations in question. I will prove my thesis that Bryson both criticises and praises British and American values which affect the national character. Bryson conveys his national views both from the perspective of an insider and outsider. William ¿Bill¿ McGuire Bryson was born in Des Moines, Iowa, in 1951. In 1973, he travelled to England where he became acquainted with his wife, Cynthia Billen, with whom he has four children. Bryson lived in Yorkshire, returned to America to graduate in 1995, and resided with his family in Norfolk, in 2003. While in America Bryson is well-known for elaborating on the English language, he accomplished bestseller standing with travelogues in Great Britain. Although he claims not to be a travel writer because he ¿stumbled into this genre¿, Bryson composes ¿books on travel and the English language¿ in which his ¿wanderlust and eccentricity¿ promise a unique reading adventure (Oder 191). Travel writing is a neglected but miscellaneous genre of ancient times which flourished in the sixteenth century and encompasses narratives of expansionism, such as encyclopaedic accounts of foreign nations, and became the principal negotiator of propagating stereotypes in colonial novels. While Bryson¿s journey novel Notes from a Small Island depicts the Great Britain he adores, he grudgingly wrote columns about America which resulted in his journalistic novel Notes from a Big Country.

Seminar paper from the year 2008 in the subject Engineering - Civil Engineering, grade: A, University of California, Berkeley , language: English, abstract: In 1894 the British architect John Tavenor wrote an article about the remains of medieval architecture in the Baltic area. He concluded that the style in this area has been carried throughout the Middle Ages and further stated that the style is ¿quite dissimilar to those of the rest of the continent¿ , meaning the Gothic style, that started to spread over Europe in the 11th and 12th centuries. He calls this architecture the ¿Baltic style¿ and considers it to be a sub-style of the Gothic style. The Holy Roman Empire, which contributed to the spread of the Gothic style, only reached as far as the Elbe River in Germany. The Baltic area, as the heart of Northern Europe, was fractured into many kingdoms, principalities and lordships in the 1st millennium B.C. So how was it possible that cultural and economic goods could spread in these disadvantageous circumstances, at a time when ¿commerce by sea was little more than outrageous piracy and commerce by land was obliged to follow one or two beaten tracks across Europe in order to escape merciless exactions of the robber barons¿ ? One answer could be the Hanseatic League, a protected network created by merchants, in order to protect their trade. This alliance allowed trading guilds to manifest a trade monopoly within the entire Baltic area. Since the League was not tied to any sphere of control but the merchants themselves, trades could be made easily within Northern Europe. Consequently the simultaneous appearance of the League and the Baltic style suggest that there is a possible correlation between the architecture in the Baltic area and its spread along the Hanseatic League¿s trading routes. During this essay I am going to support this assumption by finding exemplifying similarities among buildings in the Hanse towns along the main trading routes. [...]

Seminar paper from the year 2008 in the subject Sociology - Political Sociology, Majorities, Minorities, grade: 1,0, European University Viadrina Frankfurt (Oder), language: English, abstract: In the last decades, debates about the existence and the meaning of an European idetity raised all the time more. Some scholars approached the theme, focussing on a ¿common historical heritage¿, which points to a basis for a collective identity (Habermas 2001; Giesen 2003), others based their arguments on political and institutional similarities among European countries like human rights protection, democracy and rule of law (Risse 2001). In other cases, the studies on the topic focussed on the ambivalent employ of the term ¿identity¿, arguing its (ab)-use, above all in EU-Treaties, instead of more obviously expressions as ¿legitimacy¿ or ¿sovereignty¿ (Bruha/ Rau 2000). The aim of this paper is to examine the topic from two distinctive perspectives: a post-national and a postmodern. The paper suggests a sort of ¿back to the roots¿ of the en-quiry, approaching the subject neither with pre-existent assumptions nor with the goal to order puzzled arguments. The study will not pursue the question about the existence of a collective European identity, but will search for possible ways and circumstances, in which ¿identity¿ in Europe (restricting the focus on the European Union) may emerge. The central question of the paper will be if the development of an European identity is plausible and if a widespread process of socialisation may prevail on the national structures of the member states (hereafter MSs) and lead to the growth of common ¿procedures¿ and ¿functions¿ among European populations. In order to answer the question the more satisfactory as possible, the dissertation proposes two differing angles for the analysis with the intend to compare the findings resulting from dissimilar criteria of examination. In a first part the EU will be considered as a post-national political order, deriving from the dissolution of its MSs. After a short explanation on the political nature of the Union from this standpoint, the dissertation will explore the option of an emerging post-national identity in the European Union, adopting the criteria proposed by Anthony Smith in his study of national identities (Smith 1991). The analysis will evaluate if the EU attends the proposed criteria in order to assess the coming out of a post-national form of social identification. [...]

Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2005 im Fachbereich Philosophie - Philosophie der Antike, Note: 2.0, FernUniversität Hagen, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: "The safest generalization that can be made about the history of western philosophy is that it is all a series of footnotes to Plato." Dieser Satz von Whitehead ist weithin bekannt und in der Tat, von Aristoteles bis Cicero, von Plotin bis Augustinus, von Machiavelli bis Nietzsche, von Popper bis Gadamer, kaum ein westlicher Philosoph, der nicht auf Platon bezug nähme. Im Zentrum von Rezeption und Diskussion stehen v.a. der ¿ideale Staat¿ wie er in der Politea entwickelt wird und das Konzept der Ideen selbst, die ¿Ideenlehre¿ als Kern der platonischen Philosophie. Nach Aristoteles war es v.a. Heraklits Auffassung, dass alles in der Welt der Erscheinungen im Fluss sei, die Platon und später auch seine Anhänger nachhaltig prägte und zum Konzept der Ideen führte. Aristoteles Darstellung wird zwar kontrovers diskutiert, unbestreitbar scheint jedoch, was auch immer Platon zur Annahme der Ideen letztlich veranlasst haben mag, die Vorstellung einer veränderlichen Welt im Fluss ohne irgendetwas Beständiges, Ewiges, Unveränderliches, ist nicht spurlos an ihm vorrübergegangen. Im Dialog Kratylos etwa lässt er Sokrates sagen: ¿Ja es ist nicht einmal möglich zu sagen, dass es eine Erkenntnis gebe, wenn alle Dinge sich verwandeln und nichts bleibt¿und von diesem Satze aus gibt es weder ein Erkennendes noch ein zu Erkennendes. Ist aber immer das Erkennende und das Erkannte, ist das Schöne, ist das Gute, ist jegliches Seiende, so scheint mir dies, wie wir es jetzt sagen, gar nicht mehr einem Fluss ähnlich oder einer Bewegung. Ob nun dieses sich so verhält oder vielmehr so, wie Herakleitos mit den Seinigen und noch viele andere behaupten, das mag wohl gar nicht leicht sein, zu untersuchen.¿ Mit der Annahme von ewigen und unveränderlichen Ideen hinter den Erscheinungen suchte Platon einen Ausgleich zu schaffen, einen Ausgleich zwischen Heraklit und Parmenides. Die platonische Welt der Erscheinungen, in der sich alles in Veränderung befindet, wird von Heraklit bestimmt. Das feste Sein, an das Parmenides geglaubt hatte ("Mir ist das Sein das allen (Seienden) Gemeinsame. Von wo ich auch beginne, immer wieder komme ich darauf zurück."), findet dagegen Eingang in die Ideenlehre. Eine solche Hypothese wie die ¿Ideenlehre¿ birgt in sich zwangsläufig eine Reihe von Problemen. Die wichtigsten dieser Probleme zu benennen und zu diskutieren, ist Ziel dieser Arbeit. Dabei soll insbesondere das Problem des ¿Dritten Menschen¿ näher untersucht werden.

Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2006 im Fachbereich Medien / Kommunikation - Theorien, Modelle, Begriffe, Note: 2,0, Universität Mannheim, Veranstaltung: Talking about pop music: Theorien über Medien und Kultur am Beispiel von Musik, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Popmusik und Gesellschaft stehen in enger Verbindung zueinander und beeinflussen sich gegenseitig. Auf der einen Seite hängt die Popmusik von der Gesellschaft und deren Entwicklung ab. Dies spricht Sigmund Spaeth bereits 1948 an:¿It has become a commonplace to say that popular music is an index to the life and history of a nation. Unfortunately there are still too many people who do not really believe it. They are actually unaware of the extent to which the manners, customs and current events of every generation have been given expression in popular songs [¿]¿ (Spaeth 1948, 3). In der Musik spiegeln sich u.a. die Einstellungen, Werte und Normen einer Gesellschaft und bestimmte Ereignisse wieder. Diese Erkenntnis ist vor allem für Soziologen von zentraler Bedeutung, weil es nur so möglich ist Rückschlüsse auf die jeweilige Gesellschaft zu ziehen. Popmusik ist dabei jedoch nicht nur in der Lage das Leben und die Geschichte einer Nation wiederzuspiegeln, sondern kann ebenso Ausdruck des Protests an den politischen Machthabern eines Landes und deren Entscheidungen sein. So entstehen z.B. zur Zeit des Vietnamkriegs viele Protestsongs, die sich meist emotional gegen die amerikanische Intervention im Vietnam aussprechen und ein Ende des Kriegs fordern. Auf der anderen Seite beeinflusst die Popmusik aber ebenso die Gesellschaft. Auch hierzu äussert sich Sigmund Spaeth:¿No matter what anyone thinks of such music, it is historically and racially important. The mere fact that millions of people sing a certain song, or listen to it with honest pleasure, gives it a significance that cannot be ignored¿ (Spaeth 1948, 3). Der Einfluss der Popmusik taucht immer wieder im Zusammenhang mit dem Manipulationsvorwurf auf. Ist es möglich, dass Popmusik die Gesellschaft nachhaltig beeinflussen und damit bestimmte Reaktionen auslösen kann? Besitzt sie die Macht Menschen zu manipulieren? Diese Fragen sind gerade in Bezug auf Popmusik wichtig, weil heutzutage einige wenige Labels in der Musikbranche tätig sind. Wenn der Einfluss der Popmusik also wirklich bedeutend wäre, dann besässen diese Labels ein Machtmonopol. Vor diesem Hintergrund stellt sich die Frage: Was für einen Einfluss hat die Popmusik auf die Gesellschaft und wie gross ist dieser? Dieser Fragestellung möchte ich in der folgenden Hausarbeit nachgehen und mich dabei auf zwei Theorien stützen, die sich im Rahmen von Kulturanalysen mit dieser Thematik beschäftigt haben: die Kritische Theorie und die Cultural Studies. Zur Beantwortung der Fragestellung werde ich die beiden jeweils kurz erläutern und ihre Einschätzung der Thematik beschreiben. Abschliessend werde ich dann die Ansichten der beiden Theorien einander vergleichend gegenüberstellen.

Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2004 im Fachbereich Soziologie - Methodologie und Methoden, Note: 1,2, Justus-Liebig-Universität Giessen (Medizinische Soziologie), Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Der Verhaltensforscher und Psychologe Professor Philip Zimbardo untersuchte in den 70er und 80er Jahren die Auswirkungen aussergewöhnlicher Situationen auf den Menschen. Zimbardo lag dabei weniger daran, die persönlichen Situationen, Entwicklungen und die psychologischen Fallstudien einzelner darzulegen, er war vielmehr auf der Suche nach allgemeingültigen Zusammenhängen zwischen äusseren Einflüssen und dem Verhalten der Betroffenen. Solche Einflüsse lassen sich in Situationen extremer Belastung, wie diese beispielsweise in Gefängnissen auftreten, beobachten. Nach dem zweiten Weltkrieg gab es eine Vielzahl von Berichten Gefangener über das persönliche Erleben, die Eindrücke und Auswirkungen ihrer jeweiligen Gefängnissituationen. Zimbardo wollte nun die Auswirkungen der Gefängnissituation auf allgemeingültiger Ebene untersuchen. Er trennte damit deutlich die persönliche Psyche des einzelnen von den Faktoren, die von ¿aussen¿ an ihn herangetragen werden und auf alle Gefangenen gleichermassen wirken. Die Zentrale Frage, die Zimbardo untersuchte, war die Frage nach dem ¿Guten¿ und dem ¿Bösen¿ im Menschen. Würde in Menschen, die extremem Druck ausgesetzt und zur Anwendung von Gewalt aufgefordert würden, das Gute oder das Böse siegen? Welchen Einfluss hat die Umwelt auf diese Entscheidung? Wer ist tatsächlich dafür verantwortlich, dass von aussergewöhnlicher Gewalt in Gefängnissen berichtet wird? Für Zimbardo war die Durchführung eines Experimentes erforderlich, das unter nahezu realistischen Bedingungen die Ausnahmesituation eines Gefängnisses nachstellte. Das Gefängnis, ein Ort, der gekennzeichnet ist von künstlichen Machtstrukturen und unnatürlichen Autoritäten, schien dem Wissenschaftler eine geeignete Umgebung für die Untersuchung der Frage nach dem Einfluss äusserer Faktoren auf das Machtverhalten und die Gewaltbereitschaft des Menschen zu sein.

“The mistress of high tension” ( The New Yorker) and undisputed Queen of Suspense Mary Higgins Clark brings us another New York Times bestselling novel that USA TODAY calls “her page-turning best” about a killer who targets lonely women on cruise ships, a masterful combination of page-turning suspense and classic mystery. When Dr. Susan Chandler decides to use her daily radio talk show to explore the phenomenon of women who disappear and are later found to have become victims of killers who prey on the lonely and insecure, she has no idea that she is exposing herself—and those closest to her—to the very terror that she hopes to warn others against. Susan sets out to determine who is responsible for an attempt on the life of a woman who called in to the show offering information on the mysterious disappearance from a cruise ship, years before, of Regina Clausen, a wealthy investment advisor. Soon Susan finds herself in a race against time, for not only does the killer stalk these lonely women, but he seems intent on eliminating anyone who can possibly further Susan’s investigation. As her search intensifies, Susan finds herself confronted with the realization that one of the men who have become important figures in her life might actually be the killer. And as she gets closer to uncovering his identity, she realizes almost too late that the hunter has become the hunted. Is she the next one marked for murder?
