Diese Einführung in die Ethnografie wendet sich an alle Sozialwissenschaftler*innen, die ethnografisch forschen wollen. Ethnografie ist im strikten Sinne als Feldforschung zu verstehen. Ethnografisch Forschende müssen sich hinaus in die Sozialwelt wagen. Aus diesem Grund ist Ethnografie immer zuerst teilnehmende Beobachtung. Zugleich lässt sich diese im Rückgriff auf den empirischen Werkzeugkoffer durch eine Vielzahl an methodischen Zugängen erweitern. Wichtig ist zudem die Konzentration auf den Gegenstand beim Schreiben. In dem Buch werden entlang der typischen Stationen des Forschungsprozesses die Herausforderungen der ethnografischen Feldarbeit dargestellt. Die Einführung möchte gleichzeitig praktisch sein, indem konkrete Umsetzungsperspektiven aufgezeigt werden. Am Ende sollten Leser und Leserin soweit vorbereitet sein, um ein eigenes Ethnografieprojekt durchführen zu können.

Das Wettbewerbs- und Kartellrecht ist inzwischen weitgehend europarechtlich überformt. Das anschaulich geschriebene Lehrbuch zum UWG, GWB und zum europäischen Kartellrecht ist der ideale Begleiter für alle Studierenden und Referendar:innen, die sich einen Überblick über die bestehenden Regelungen und ihr Zusammenspiel verschaffen wollen. Im Wettbewerbsrecht werden das materielle UWG (Anspruchsgrundlagen) und die Grundzüge des Verfahrensrechts dargestellt; im Kartellrecht die Grundstrukturen (Konzeption und Systematik) des GWB sowie dessen internationale Anwendungsbereiche sowie alle relevanten Fragen etwa zum Kartellverbot, zu den Sonderregeln für bestimmte Wirtschaftsbereiche oder auch zur Zusammenschlusskontrolle. Die Grundzüge des europäischen Kartellrechts werden ebenfalls erörtert.
