Dr. Monti Datta – Faculty Author Interview
No full textDr. Monti Datta, Assistant Professor of Political Science, discusses his forthcoming new book, Anti-Americanism and the Rise of World Opinion. Drawing from a wealth of research data, interviews and surveys of social media, this book directly examines pro- and anti-American views and asks what we can learn about the nature and impact of world opinion. By treating anti-Americanism as a case study of public opinion at work, Professor Datta reveals how we can better understand the relationship between global citizens and their political leaders, and concludes that anti-Americanism does in fact substantially impact US security, as well as its economic and political interests
Tapping Economies of Scale and Scope in Consumer Cooperation - A Case Analysis of Possible Cooperation among selected Cooperatives
No full textBecause of its narrow and negative perspective of safeguarding the interests of only poor consumers against unethical practices of the private traders, consumer cooperation in India seems to have failed, except probably in some isolated pockets. A number of social welfare functions like poverty alleviation and public distribution of essential items of consumption have been imposed on them at the cost of their basic economics. With the basic micro and macro-economic rationale for consumer cooperatives as a positive form of economic organization being lost sight of, they seem to be facing enormous problems both historically as well as currently in a era of economic liberalization. Their worries seem to have been compounded with the threat of impending competition from large private enterpriss - both domestic and foreign, which highlights the need for evolving strategies to rectivy their systemic weaknesses and tackling the competition head on. This case has attempted to document just such an initiative through a round table conference with several doyens of the consumer cooperative movement in India such as Warana Bazar and Amalsad Mandali as well as some fledging consumer cooperatives from West Bengal which are already in existence for some time or contemplating entry into this field. The roundtable conference organized in the spirit of Cooperation among Cooperatives attempted to evolve strategies to capture economies of scale and scope in order to take on the competition, as well as to facilitate dissemination of ideas and information across the country.

The replacement name is dedicated to G.S. Arora, author of the basic publication on the fauna of the Andaman and Nicobar Islands. Remark. The taxon tripunctata Reich, 1935 was described under the genus Lyclene. Here we transfer it to the genus Cyana and synonymize with C. detrita (see above). Thus, at present there are two Cyana taxa with the name tripunctata, so tripunctata Rothschild, 1936 becomes a junior secondary homonym of tripunctata Reich, 1935. Hence, we introduce the replacement name arorai nom. nov. for tripunctata Rothschild, 1936. Diagnosis. Forewing length is 12.5–15 mm in males and 17–18 mm in females. Cyana arorai is a polymorphic species, significantly variable in size. Cyana arorai is similar externally to C. carmina (Figs 13, 14), but differs by its arcuate antemedial line (that is oblique in C. carmina) and larger black discal spots. In females of C. arorai a third, posterior black spot may be developed (Figs 16, 17), what is unusual for the C. insularis group. The female genitalia of C. arorai are very similar to those of C. carmina (Figs 239, 240), but differ by the more heavily sclerotized cervix bursae having narrower longitudinal folds, and the lateral band-like signum being more weakly sclerotized subanteriorly with its anterior end strongly broadened. Distribution. Endemic of the Andaman Islands. The records of C. bianca (male) and C. coccinea (female) for the Andaman Islands (Hampson 1900; Draudt 1914; Arora 1983) belong to C. arorai.Published as part of Singh, Navneet, Volynkin, Anton V., Kirti, Jagbir Singh, Datta, Harvinder Singh & Ivanova, Maria S., 2020, A review of the genus Cyana Walker, 1854 from India, with descriptions of five new species and three new subspecies (Lepidoptera: Erebidae: Arctiinae: Lithosiini), pp. 1-93 in Zootaxa 4738 (1) on page 10, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4738.1.1, http://zenodo.org/record/367243

Analysemöglichkeiten Cognito Forms und Alternativen
No full textNachdem die Studierenden aus einem Auslandsemester zurückkehren, müssen sie einen «Experience Report» ausfüllen. Dieser Report dient als Basis für die Akkreditierung der erworbenen ECTS-Punkte sowie als Informationsquelle zu Partnerhochschulen für die Studierenden und das International Office. Der Report generiert qualitative und quantitative Daten. Diese werden zurzeit nicht systematisch ausgewertet, weil das verwendete Erfassungstool Cognito Forms keine Analyseoptionen bietet. Das International Office wünschte deshalb die Abklärung von Möglichkeiten zur systematischen Datenauswertung
Process optimization and automatization of account, reporting & controlling for major projects realized within engineering consortiums in the construction industry
No full textAs a company operating in the construction industry, the engineering offices of Rothpletz, Lienhard + Cie AG carry out numerous construction projects all over Switzerland. Larger projects are thereby carried out in engineering consortiums, which act as independent entities and imply the merger of several companies for the purpose of a successful project realization. Due to the involvement of different companies, there exist administrative processes with a high potential for optimization, such as the process of accounting, reporting, and controlling
Analysis of circular construction industry in the Basel region: Factors that either hinder or promote the implementation of circular construction
No full textThis thesis explores circular construction as a sustainable building method in Basel. Despite efforts to promote sustainability, most buildings in Switzerland do not meet circular construction principles, leading to high energy consumption and emissions. The construction industry has the potential to innovate by incorporating circular economy principles throughout the building process. The thesis studies the factors that encourage or hinder the implementation of circular construction in the Basel region, which can lead to environmental, economic, and social benefits
