Improvising Cinema

REA Auditado

Gilles Mouëllic examines improvisational practices that can be specifically attributed to the cinema and argues in favors of their powers as instigators of unprecedented forms of expression. Improvising Cinema reflects both on the permanence of attempting improvisation and the relationship between technology and aesthetics. Mouëllic concludes preservation becomes even more invaluable in the case of improvisation, as the creative act exists only within the brief time span of the performance.

Constructing Iron Europe : Transnationalism and Railways in the Interbellum

REA Auditado

Conventional histories portray the development of railway infrastructures as a tool to build empires and nation states. Recent scholarship however, has stressed the importance of a transnational perspective beyond an exclusive focus on the nation state. The new perspective enriches both the history of modern Europe and European integration. Constructing Iron Europe demonstrates how during the interwar years key players saw railroads as instruments for building a transnational European community.

The University Socialist Club and the Contest for Malaya : Tangled Strands of Modernity

REA Auditado

The book, using a small group of left-wing student activists as a prism, explores the complex politics that underpinned the making of nation-states in Singapore and Malaysia after World War Two. While most works have viewed the period in terms of political contestation groups, the book demonstrates how it is better understood as involving a shared modernist project framed by British-planned decolonization.

Market strategies in different stages - How to stimulate organic market development

Organic agriculture generates tangible benefits for both producers and consumers. But it also produces wider public benefits, and it should therefore be a common concern to help the organic sector develop better and faster, rather than just leaving it to market forces.

Dauerhafte Ausweitung des ökologischen Landbaus in Deutschland: Analyse der Ausstiege von Betrieben und Entwicklung eines Konzepts zur nachhaltigen Vermeidung

REA Auditado

Der ökologische Landbau verzeichnet in Deutschland seit Ende der 1980er-Jahre eine kontinuierliche Ausweitung. Ein Blick hinter die Wachstumsbilanz verrät jedoch, dass es neben zahlreichen Neueinsteigern auch viele Betriebe gibt, die den Ökolandbau wieder aufgeben. Da für die politisch erwünschte Ausdehnung des ökologischen Landbaus nicht nur weitere Neueinsteiger, sondern auch möglichst wenige Aussteiger erforderlich sind, war es Ziel dieser Arbeit zu untersuchen, welche Betriebe und Motive sich hinter den Ausstiegen verbergen und wie speziell Rückumstellungen verhindert werden können.
