Not only is this book a first for Texas, but there seem to be no equivalent books for any other states, so the author has developed new concepts like 'the first road frontier' and the 'rupture' caused by the railroads. McComb emphasizes how railroads and related innovations such as the telegraph and the clock facilitated in urban development"--Provided by publisher. 410 0$aBridwell Texas history series. 606 $aCities and towns$zTexas$xHistory 606 $aCities and towns$zTexas$xGrowth$xHistory 606 $aCity and town life$zTexas$xHistory 606 $aFrontier and pioneer life$zTexas 607 $aTexas$xHistory 607 $aTexas$xSocial conditions 607 $aTexas$xEconomic conditions 615 0$aCities and towns$xHistory. 615 0$aCities and towns$xGrowth$xHistory. 615 0$aCity and town life$xHistory. 615 0$aFrontier and pioneer life 676 $a307.7609764 700 $aMcComb$b David G.$0861654 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910818464903321 996 $aThe city in Texas$93984354 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03516nam 22005295 450 001 9910300510703321 005 20200705021123.0 010 $a3-658-19883-4 024 7 $a10.1007/978-3-658-19883-1 035 $a(CKB)4100000001040307 035 $a(DE-He213)978-3-658-19883-1 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC5132292 035 $a(PPN)259471801 035 $a(EXLCZ)994100000001040307 100 $a20171107d2018 u| 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurnn|008mamaa 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 10$aDAX-Firms and Human Rights $eUnderstanding Institutional and Stakeholder Pressures along the Value Chain /$fby Carlo Manuel Drauth 205 $a1st ed. 2018. 210 1$aWiesbaden :$cSpringer Fachmedien Wiesbaden :$cImprint: Springer VS,$d2018. 215 $a1 online resource (XVI, 229 p. 41 illus.) 225 1 $aSpringer VS Research 311 $a3-658-19882-6 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references. 330 $aCarlo Manuel Drauth explores under which conditions multinational enterprises systematically manage their human rights impacts with a view to preventing corporate human rights violations across their operations. Using a multi-method research design and focusing on the 30 largest German firms, the author finds that it is neither institutional forces (e.g., standards or norms) nor stakeholder pressures (e.g., from NGOs or trade unions) alone, but their combined effect that leads to a systematic human rights management at the firm-level. This finding informs a new theoretical approach to the study of CSR, integrating institutional and stakeholder theories while taking an explicit value chain perspective.
