Sommario/riassunto |
|
Finding Reliable Information Online: Adventures of an Information Sleuth uses stories or "information adventures" to illustrate the best approaches to searching for information and to help us develop our aptitude for locating high quality resources in a rapidly changing digital environment that is becoming proficient at monopolizing our attention with useless or unreliable information. This book is about taking charge of the search process and not handing over the reins to search engines like Google, Bing, or Yahoo to dictate what information we consume. |
Our information-saturated environment causes us to spend too much time searching, surfing and organizing the information in our lives. But finding reliable high quality information can be a problem. We are often so buried in information-- and strapped for time-- that we grab the search results without bothering to evaluate its quality. Stebbins shows |

Sommario/riassunto |
|
Business networks consist of several independent businesses that enter into interrelated contracts, conferring on the parties many of the benefits of co-ordination achieved through vertical integration in a single firm, without creating a single integrated business such as a corporation or partnership. Retail franchises are one such example of a network, but the most common instance is a credit card transaction between a customer, retailer, and the issuer of the card. How should the law analyse this hybrid economic phenomenon? It is neither exactly a market relationship - because that overlooks the co-ordination, relational qualities and interdependence of the contracts - nor is it a type of business association or company, since it lacks a centralised co-ordinating authority that receives the residual profits. This book is a translation of Gunther Teubner's classic work on networks, setting out his novel legal concept of 'connected contracts'. In it he explains how this concept addresses the problems posed by networks, such as the question whether the network as a whole can be held legally responsible for damage that it causes to third parties such as customers. A substantial introduction by Hugh Collins explains the analysis of networks in the context of German law and the systems theory from which Teubner approaches the topic. The introduction also explores how far the concept of connected contracts might assist in the common law world, including the UK and the USA, to address the same problems that arise in cases involving networks. As well as making a contribution to comparative law and legal theory, the book will be of interest to scholars interested in contract law, commercial law and the |

Kaufleute, Gesandte oder Reisende durchquerten das Byzantinische Reich oder ließen sich dort nieder. Die Hauptstadt Konstantinopel hatte als politisches, religiöses und kulturelles Zentrum des Reiches eine besondere Anziehungskraft und bot mit eigenen lateinischen Vierteln, Kirchen und Klöstern viele Anlaufstellen für Personen aus dem lateinischen Europa. Individuen, die sich zwischen Byzanz und dem Westen bewegten, befanden sich nicht selten in der Rolle des interkulturellen Mittlers. Einige von ihnen traten sogar in den Dienst des byzantinischen Kaisers und arbeiteten als Übersetzer, Dolmetscher, Berater oder Gesandte am Hof. Trotz ihres neuen Lebensmittelpunktes pflegten sie weiterhin Kontakte zu Teilen der lateinischen Welt, manche arbeiteten sogar gleichzeitig für den byzantinischen Hof und für lateinische Auftraggeber. Das Buch untersucht diese Akteure, ihr Wissen, ihre besonderen Fähigkeiten, ihr Wirken und Selbstverständnis. Zudem wird der Frage nach der Integration, nachpotenziellen Konflikten sowie den Loyalitäten dieser Individuen zwischen Byzanz und dem Westen nachgegangen. Dadurch wirft die Studie ein neues Licht auf diese Personen, die als Experten der Zwischenräume agierten. |
