Historical Justice and Memory highlights the global movement for historical justice—acknowledging and redressing historic wrongs—as one of the most significant moral and social developments of our times. Such historic wrongs include acts of genocide, slavery, systems of apartheid, the systematic persecution of presumed enemies of the state, colonialism, and the oppression of or discrimination against ethnic or religious minorities.The historical justice movement has inspired the spread of truth and reconciliation processes around the world and has pushed governments to make reparations and apologies for past wrongs. It has changed the public understanding of justice and the role of memory. In this book, leading scholars in philosophy, history, political science, and semiotics offer new essays that discuss and assess these momentous global developments. They evaluate the strength and weaknesses of the movement, its accomplishments and failings, its philosophical assumptions and social preconditions, and its prospects for the future.

Shifting Memories explores the contours and genealogies of non-Jewish Germans' public memories of the Nazi past in the Federal Republic of Germany, asking how the crimes committed by Nazi Germany are reflected in the present. The study illuminates particular aspects of public remembering by focusing on case studies, telling a number of stories which at times appear parallel and at times intersect.The case studies address, for example, the legacy of the so-called Celler Hasenjagd (the hunting down of concentration camp prisoners who survived an Allied air raid in April 1945 in a town in Lower Saxony); efforts by the City of Hildesheim to memorialize the Kristallnacht pogrom; attempts by Italian, Jewish, and Sinti survivors to commemorate their suffering in two West German towns; the posthumous reputation of a German communist imprisoned in Buchenwald and credited with having saved the lives of 159 Jewish children; and the public memories of the Ravensbrück and Buchenwald concentration camps in East Germany.Directed at an audience curious about contemporary Germany, this book will appeal to those interested in issues of public and social memory, and in the legacy of Auschwitz.Klaus Neumann is a historian who has taught in universities in Germany and Australia and written about social memories in the Pacific Islands, Australia, and Germany. Previous books include Not the Way It Really Was and Rabaul Yu Swit Moa Yet. He lives in Richmond, Australia.

The yearning for historical justice – that is, for the redress of past wrongs – has become one of the defining features of our age. Governments, international bodies and civil society organisations address historical injustices through truth commissions, tribunals, official apologies and other transitional justice measures. Historians produce knowledge of past human rights violations, and museums, memorials and commemorative ceremonies try to keep that knowledge alive and remember the victims of injustices.In this book, researchers with a background in history, archaeology, cultural studies, literary studies and sociology explore the various attempts to recover and remember the past as a means of addressing historic wrongs. Case studies include sites of persecution in Germany, Argentina and Chile, the commemoration of individual victims of Nazi Germany, memories of life under South Africa’s apartheid regime, and the politics of memory in Israel and in Northern Ireland. The authors critique memory, highlight silences and absences, explore how to engage with the ghosts of the past, and ask what drives individuals, including professional historians, to strive for historical justice.This book was originally published as a special issue of Rethinking History.

Today, Australia’s response to asylum-seeking ‘boat people’ is a hot-button issue that feeds the political news cycle. But the daily reports and political promises lack the historical context that would allow for informed debate. Have we ever taken our fair share of refugees? Have our past responses been motivated by humanitarian concerns or economic self-interest? Is the influx of ‘boat people’ over the last fifteen years really unprecedented?In this eloquent and informative book, historian Klaus Neumann examines both government policy and public attitudes towards refugees and asylum seekers since Federation. He places the Australian story in the context of global refugee movements, and international responses to them. Neumann examines many case studies, including the resettlement of displaced persons from European refugee camps in the late 1940s and early 1950s, and the panic generated by the arrival of Vietnamese asylum seekers during the 1977 federal election campaign. By exploring the ways in which politicians have approached asylum-seeker issues in the past, Neumann aims to inspire more creative thinking about current refugee and asylum-seeker policy.‘Klaus Neumann has written a humane, engrossing book imbued with the awareness that in telling the history of Australia, one tells the story of immigration. Immigrants – always resisted, always blasted by invective and ever essential to our society and polity – show us ourselves through the heroic journeys of ancestors, the recurrent frenzies of resistance, right up to our present parlous state as the most supposedly tolerant intolerant society on earth. But if you think you’ve read all this before, you should know Neumann has brought to this book a novelty of approach, a freshness of perception, that means all the others have been mere preparation.’—Tom KeneallyKlaus Neumann is a historian based at Swinburne University’s Institute for Social Research. His 2006 book In the Interest of National Security won the John and Patricia Ward History Prize, while his Refuge Australia: Australia’s Humanitarian Record (2004) won the Australian Human Rights Commission’s 2004 Human Rights Award for Non-Fiction.

Wie entfaltet sich das Menschsein im Spannungsfeld biblischer Polyvalenz? Welche theologischen Impulse lassen sich aus den fruhchristlichen Texten fur Gegenwart und Zukunft gewinnen? Welche Resonanz entfalten biblische Narrative und wie interferiert diese mit kulturellen Deutungsmustern?Diese Festschrift zum 65. Geburtstag von Christian Strecker, Professor fur Neues Testament an der Augustana-Hochschule Neuendettelsau, vereint Beitrage von Kolleginnen, Kollegen und Weggefahrten. Sie alle setzen sich mit den zentralen Themen seines wissenschaftlichen Wirkens auseinander: der kulturell sensiblen Lekture biblischer Texte, der interdisziplinaren Verortung theologischer Argumentation und der fortwahrenden Relevanz neutestamentlicher Anthropologie. Der Band gliedert sich in drei thematische Linien - Bibel, Kultur und Theologie - und spiegelt damit das breite Forschungsinteresse und die profilgebende Wirkung Streckers wider. So wird ein Dialograum eroffnet, in dem Theologie, Exegese und Kulturwissenschaft miteinander ins Gesprach treten & ganz im Sinne eines Denkens, das Grenzen uberwindet.

It is already a tradition that conferences on operations research are organized by the Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut in Oberwolfach/Germany. The mean point of the 1987 conference was to discuss recentl.v developed methods in optimization theory derived from various fields of mathematics. On the other hand, the practical use of results in operations research is very important. In the last few years* essenti.al progress in this direction was made at the International Insti- tute for Applied Systems Analysis (IIASA) at Laxenburg/Austria. Therefore a three days workshop on Advanced Computation Techniques, Parallel Processing and Optimi- zation organized by IIASA and the University of Karlsruhe immediately followed the Oberwolfach Conference. This volume contains selected pape~s which have been presented at one of these conferences. It:is divided into five sections based on the above topics: I. Algorithms and Optimization Methods II. Optimization and Parallel Processing III. Graph Theory and Scheduling IV. Differential Equations and Operator Theory V. Applications. We would like to thank the director of the Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach Prof. Dr. M.Barner and the International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis, particularly Prof. Dr. V. Kaftanov, and also to the director of the Computer Center of the University of Karlsruhe Prof. Dr. A. Schreiner for their support in organizing these conferences. We also appreciate the excellent coopera- tion of Springer Verlag. We also thank Dr. P. Recht, Dr. D. Solte and Dr. K. Wieder as well as*Mrs.

A survey of the state of the art of deterministic resource-constrained project scheduling with time windows. General temporal constraints and several different types of limited resources are considered. A large variety of time-based, financial, and resource-based objectives - important in practice - are studied. A thorough structural analysis of the feasible region of project scheduling problems and a classification and detailed investigation of objective functions are performed, which can be exploited for developing efficient exact and heuristic solution methods. New interesting applications of project scheduling to production and operations management as well as investment projects are discussed in the second edition.

Stochastic Project Networks
Temporal Analysis, Scheduling and Cost Minimization
Häftad, Engelska, 1990

Skickas inom 10-15 vardagar
Project planning, scheduling, and control are regularly used in business and the service sector of an economy to accomplish outcomes with limited resources under critical time constraints. To aid in solving these problems, network-based planning methods have been developed that now exist in a wide variety of forms, cf. Elmaghraby (1977) and Moder et al. (1983). The so-called "classical" project networks, which are used in the network techniques CPM and PERT and which represent acyclic weighted directed graphs, are able to describe only projects whose evolution in time is uniquely specified in advance. Here every event of the project is realized exactly once during a single project execution and it is not possible to return to activities previously carried out (that is, no feedback is permitted). Many practical projects, however, do not meet those conditions. Consider, for example, a production process where some parts produced by a machine may be poorly manufactured. If an inspection shows that a part does not conform to certain specifications, it must be repaired or replaced by a new item. This means that we have to return to a preceding stage of the production process. In other words, there is feedback. Note that the result of the inspection is that a certain percentage of the parts tested do not conform. That is, there is a positive probability (strictly less than 1) that any part is defective.

A project is a unique undertaking or endeavor to be accomplished that can be divided into individual subtasks or activities each of which requires time and scarce resources for its completion. Also there is a desired objective to be attained (for example, minimization of project duration or of variation of resource utilization, or maximization of net present value of the project). Moreover, there are given precedence relationships among activities prescrib ing the order in which activities must be carried out. Project scheduling, in its basic form, consists of finding start times for all activities such that pre scribed resource and precedence constraints are satisfied and an objective function is optimized. Since the concept of a project can be interpreted quite broadly, project scheduling problems arise in a great variety of practical situations. These in clude construction work, the development and introduction of new products, service systems, or software packages, strategic long-term planning in manu facturing and the service sector, emergency planning, and even the conduct ing of political campaigns. Recently, project scheduling has been successfully applied to production and operations management, e.g. make-to-order pro duction in manufacturing and batch production in process industries. Since the late 1950''s, network-based planning methods for project sched uling problems have been developed, cf. Elmaghraby (1977) and Moder et al.

Wie reagiert eine Gesellschaft auf ein Problem, das schon als überwunden galt und plötzlich umso drastischer zurückkehrt? Klaus Neumann geht dieser Frage nach anhand der Arbeitslosigkeit in Westdeutschland der 1970er und 1980er Jahre. Nach über einem Jahrzehnt der Vollbeschäftigung war das Thema "Arbeitslosigkeit" nahezu vollständig aus der öffentlichen Debatte verschwunden. Ab Mitte der 1970er Jahre stieg die Arbeitslosigkeit jedoch unerwartet stark an und konnte auch in Phasen guter Konjunktur nicht mehr abgebaut werden: Arbeitslosigkeit wurde zum Dauerproblem, das uns bis heute begleitet. Dieses Buch zeichnet Umgang, Ursachenzuschreibung und Lösungsvorschläge des Phänomens "Arbeitslosigkeit" durch die Medien und die Gesellschaft nach und leistet damit einen wichtigen Beitrag, die Gesellschaft der alten Bundesrepublik, aber auch die Hintergründe aktueller Debatten über Arbeitslosigkeit zu verstehen.

Spätestens seit den 1980er Jahren erregt kaum etwas die Öffentlichkeit so sehr wie die Frage, wie viele und welche Menschen, »die wir nicht gerufen haben«, Deutschland aufnehmen sollte. Klaus Neumann beschäftigt sich mit Antworten auf diese Frage: von Forderungen nach der Änderung von Artikel 16 des Grundgesetzes in den frühen 1990er Jahren über die sogenannte Willkommenskultur 2015 bis zur Neuauflage der Behauptung, das Boot sei voll, nach der Ankunft von Flüchtlingen aus der Ukraine 2022.Der Historiker untersucht die unterschiedlichen Motivationen, Schutz zu gewähren oder Schutzsuchende abzuweisen. Im Mittelpunkt seiner Betrachtung stehen dabei lokale und lokalpolitische Auseinandersetzungen: im Westen Hamburgs und im südöstlichen Sachsen. Er macht anschaulich, wie sehr Aushandlungsprozesse um die lokale Aufnahme von DDR-Übersiedlern und Asylsuchenden, Aussiedlerinnen und Kriegsflüchtlingen verquickt waren mit Debatten über Rassismus und Rechtsextremismus, demokratische Teilhabe sowie west- und ostdeutsche Identitäten.Sein Buch erlaubt somit neue Einblicke in dreieinhalb Jahrzehnte deutscher Geschichte. Zugleich ist es ein Plädoyer für eine umfassende und gut informierte Debatte über die Frage, warum Deutschland Schutzsuchende aufnehmen sollte.
