Prompted by centuries of warfare, political oppression, natural disasters, and economic collapses, exile has had an enormous impact not only on individuals who have undergone transplantation from one culture to another but also on the host societies they have joined and those worlds they have left behind. Written by prominent literary critics, creative authors, and artists, the essays gathered within Exile in Global Literature and Culture: Homes Found and Lost meditate upon the painful journeys—geographic, spiritual, emotional, psychological—brought about due to exilic rupture, loss, and dislocation. Yet exile also fosters potential pleasures and rewards: to extend scholar Martin Tucker’s formulation, wherever the exile might land in flight, he bears with him the sweetness of survival, the triumph of transcendence, the luxury of liminality, and the invitation to innovate and invent in new lands. Indeed, exile embodies both blessing and curse, homes found and lost. Furthermore, this book adheres to (and tests) the premise that exile‘s deepest and innermost currents are manifested through writing and other artistic forms.

Lean production, which has radically benefited traditional manufacturing, can greatly improve the software industry with similar methods and results. This transformation is possible because the same overarching principles that apply in other industries work equally well in software development. The software industry follows the same industrial concepts of production as those applied in manufacturing; however, the software industry perceives itself as being fundamentally different and has largely ignored what other industries have gained through the application of lean techniques.

Diploma Thesis from the year 1999 in the subject Business economics - Information Management, University of Illinois at Chicago (Office of Criminal Justice), course: Political Science, language: English, abstract: This thesis proposes a model that clarifies the concept of intelligence and its key components. Externally, the public largely ignorant of the task, mission and structure of the intelligence community a marginal support. In 1995 the annual budget for the intelligence community exceeded 30 billion dollars. Yet, at that time, the return on this investment of public funds was vague, at worse, simply not there. We only to briefly recall recent intelligence failures characterized as such based on our government's inability to prepare contingency plans to deal with them. Such as India's emergence as a nuclear power, transnational Russian criminal enterprises, and the unresolved conflicts in North Korea, and the Middle East, last, but not least are allegations that Chinese espionage has compromised the nation's most advanced nuclear weapons research. The growth of information creation and transfer within the private sector and the IC's outdated mindset is radically altering the balance of power between both. The former is diligently attempting to redefine its mission and identify suitable institutional goals. However, the secrecy with which the IC has cloaked itself, hinders political support for these efforts. The growth of information creation and transfer within the private sector and the IC s outdated mindset is radically altering the balance of power between both. The former is diligently attempting to redefine its mission and identify suitable institutional goals. In terms of the model, by expanding their mission to include other threats to national security, the IC is attempting to redefine its position in order to expand their scope of legitimate action. Presently, governmental intelligence activities are circumscribed by law and presidential orders and monitored by a few legislative and executive branch entities. They are also controlled by several statutes, judicial review proceedings, and internal regulations. In the private sector, where formal, informal and quasi-legal intelligence operations function with virtually no constraints, other than those imposed by law, an individual or organizational sense of morality and the fear of legal action. Activities are identified, documented and clarified. By structuring, organizing and clarifying current activities and future trends, this study widens the scope of public discussion on this important topic.
