    Institutionalizing ASEAN: celebrating Europe through network governance

    No full text
    This article provides a new piece for two of the puzzles of institutionalized cooperation in Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN). First, with regard to the organization's four decades of existence, there has always been a marked gap between ASEAN's rhetorical goals of cooperation and its actual achievements. What explains these systematic failures of implementation? Second, from the outset, ASEAN was criticized for its light institutionalization, which failed to deliver the substantial cooperation goals. Despite selected institutional reforms, ASEAN's autonomy has not increased remarkably and it has not made any major institutional innovations. Why does ASEAN design institutions it does not use? Why does this transformation gap occur? The author suggests a sociological institutional explanation and argues that major impulses for cooperation have come from outside Southeast Asia, most importantly from Europe. By mimicking the European integration process, ASEAN member states have effectively created an isomorphic organization. The Association's institutional development reflects a concern for international legitimacy and less an objective functional demand arising from the specific interactions of member states. This copying process has led to network governance within the organization

    From the dramatic text Monsun by the German author Anja Hilling, this article analyzes the construction of a plot using elements of the Asian theater, in this specific case the Vietnamese tradition, identifying its presence inthe structure beyond the constant references to the context of that country, starting with the title of the play itself and the trip of one of the characters to Vietnam.A partir do texto dramático Monsun, da autora alemã Anja Hilling, este artigo analisa a construção de uma trama que se utiliza de elementos do teatro asiático, neste caso específico a tradição vietnamita, identi cando a sua presença na estrutura, além das men- ções constantes ao contexto daquele país, começando pelo próprio título da peça e pela viagem de uma das personagens ao Vietnam.&nbsp

    Fairytales are an indispensable part in children's lives. They stimulate the development of imagination, fantasy; they help to enrich children’s vocabulary and with expressing feelings. There are different types of fairytales and it is very important that children get to know the variety of them. I firstly presented a youth author Anja Štefan and her literary works in my diploma paper. Later on I continued with the presentation of youth literature and I defined the theory of a fairytale, wrote about the origin, its meaning and classification of fairytales which I have also described in greater detail. I stated and described authorial prose work of Anja Štefan: picture book Lešniki, lešniki and classic fairytales Kotiček na koncu sveta, Melje, melje mlinček and Štiri črne mravljice, which can be defined as animal fairytales. I was interested in the receptive development of children in the period of intuitive intelligence, which I thoroughly described. In the empirical part of my diploma I wrote lesson plans for discussing and teaching three Anja Štefan’s animal fairytales in the first grade of primary school. 25 children took part in the research. I found out that pupils distinguish between real and unreal life (imaginative life), they are capable of identifying themselves with a literary person and they perceive animals as literary persons and they identify themselves with them

    The establishment history panel 1975-2006 : handbook Version 2.0.1

    Full text link
    "The Establishment History Panel (BHP) for 1975 to 2006 includes all of the establishments throughout Germany which have at least one employee liable to social security as of the 30th of June of a given year or which have also had at least one marginal part-time employee as of 1999. For establishments in West Germany the observation period is the period 1975 to 2006 and for establishments in East Germany 1991 to 2006. The data source for the BHP is the Employee and Benefit Recipient History (BLH) of the IAB. The data on individuals contained in the BLH are aggregated to establishment level using the establishment numbers. The BHP covers between 1.3 and 2.7 million establishments per year. The individual annual waves can be linked to a panel dataset via the identifier 'artificial establishment number', which can be found in the dataset. This data report describes the variables of the weakly anonymous version of the 1975-2006 BHP basic dataset, which is available to researchers for on-site use at the Research Data Centre (FDZ) or for remote data access also. These BHP data are predominantly original data, with the sole exception that the original establishment numbers, which are direct identifiers for the different establishments, were replaced by artificial establishment numbers. The sensitive characteristics contained in the dataset, i.e. German Classification of Economic Activities 93 as 5- digit codes, German Classification of Economic Activities 03 as 5-digit codes, and Place of Work (District), are made available in the original on request and in well-founded cases only; all other users are given these variables in their aggregate forms only (as 3-digit codes or according to German States). This report will begin with a brief description of the sources used for the BHP, as well as the generation and processing of the BHP, followed by individual detailed explanations on the variables of the BHP 1975-2006. This data report contains no frequency tables for the individual variables. These are given in a separate text file that can be found on the FDZ homepage. To begin with, a brief overview of the changes to the BHP 1975-2006 in relation to the previous version from 1975-2005 is provided. This will help users of this version come to terms with the new version." (Author's abstract, IAB-Doku) ((en)) Additional Information Here you find frequency tables for the individual variables.

    Die Arbeit „Spielen(d) Lernen: Theaterpädagogik als Einstiegshilfe in den Schulalltag“ basiert auf einem viermonatigen Pilotprojekt an der Volksschule Novaragasse, Wien. Theaterpädagoge Harald Volker Sommer arbeitete dort mit den beiden ersten Klassen und deren Lehrerinnen an der Umsetzung einer Lernunterstützung ruhend auf theater- und spielpädagogischen Übungen. Die Autorin, Anja Prietl, protokollierte die Arbeit des Theaterpädagogen und der Lehrerinnen und versuchte anhand dieser herauszukristallisieren, inwieweit Theaterpädagogik im Volksschulalter das Lern- und Sozialverhalten fördern kann. Über den theoretischen Teil, der sich mit dem anthropologischen Ansatz von „Spiel“ von Johan Huizinga beschäftigt wird der Bogen bis zu den Anforderungen an Kinder im Schuleinstiegsalter geschlagen. Anhand einer Gliederung von Elisabeth Windl, die die häufigsten Defizite in Motorik, Wahrnehmung und Sozio-Emotionalität bei Volksschulkindern darstellt, werden theaterpädagogische Mittel und Übungen aufgezeigt, die diese beobachtbar machen bzw. deren Ausgleich fördert.The paper "Spielen(d) Lernen: Theaterpädagogik als Einstiegshilfe in den Schulalltag" is based on a four month pilot project at Novaragasse elementary school, Vienna, Austria. Theatrical pedagogy teacher Harald Volker Sommer worked with the two first grade classes and their regular teachers to devise methods to support students' ability to learn through playful and theatrical exercises. Author Anja Prietl documented the project in its entirety and discusses applicability and usefulness of theatrical pedagogy for students' social and intellectual skills at such a young age. From the theoretical section of the paper, mainly focused on Johan Huizinga's anthropological definition of the term "game", the author then takes a more practical approach when examining skills required of elementary school students during their first year. According to Elisabeth Windl's classification of deficits in motor function, perception and socio-emotionality encountered in schoolchildren, the paper points to applications of theatrical pedagogy which not only bring such existing issues to light but can also be used to counteract the

    Anja Štefan's fairy tales and storytelling

    In this diploma paper I defined the concept of fairy tales and presented in detail folk tales, classic and modern fairy tales. I also presented reading development, the importance of reading and the influence of good fairy tales on children. The aim of this diploma paper has been to present the life and work of Anja Štefan. I have focused on prose and storytelling. The latter has been particularly revived in the last years, mainly because of her storytelling festival she has been organising since 1997, during the past few years also in cooperation with two other people. I wrote a literary review of her work and presented her literary achievements and awards. I analysed a few selected prose writings that were published after 2002. One of her fairy tales was discussed with pupils in fourth grade during a Slovene course and with second grade pupils during after-school classes. I presented the author and her work to pupils, as well as focused on how the texts would be received by them
