Description: -`United States of North America (2009), a fictitious passport, that joins the three NAFTA members` passport heraldics: Canada, U.S.A. and Mexico.

Borderless Business: Managing the Far-Flung Enterprise

2006 y.
Publisher: —
Description: From extending successful brands into exotic new markets to tapping talent in `virtual` teams to building ultra-complex supplier and distributor networks, today`s executives and managers must consider the international implications of every decision they make. To put the magnitude of global business in context, consider that between 1820 and 1992 world population increased 5-fold, world income 40-fold, and world trade 540-fold. And in the past decade, the pace of change has only accelerated, with the Internet, for example, making connections instantaneous and ubiquitous--and global aspirations attainable for even the smallest of enterprises. Certainly, globalization has its detractors, but for today`s business leaders, the issue is not to debate the merits of globalization but to learn how to thrive in the global marketplace. In Borderless Business the authors tackle every major dimension of globalization --from marketing to human resource management to supply chains to accounting and… [detailed...]

Borderless Knowledge: Understanding the `New` Internationalisation of Research and Higher Education in Norway (Higher Education Dynamics)

2008 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Processes of knowledge production and dissemination are increasingly set in an international context. In research and higher education the links between local actors and the international environments are both proliferating and intensifying. Individual level self-organised international collaboration is increasingly supplemented by national and supranational organised activities, and by market oriented activity with a global scope. Starting from these observations, this book analyses patterns of internationalisation comprising the national and supranational level, the level of higher education institutions and private companies, as well as the level of individual researchers and graduates. As a laboratory for studying internationalisation the book uses the case of Norway, a small knowledge system set in an open society, political system and economy. The case offers exceptionally good data on the developments in its research and higher education system that record changes over time and… [detailed...]

Borderline Personality Disorder: A Practitioner`s Guide to Comparative Treatments

2007 y.
Publisher: Springer Publishing Company
Description: Within the field of clinical psychology, the term borderline personality disorder was developed to fulfill a diagnostic need and has come to possess specific stereotypes and negative meanings. Because the term borderline is an emotionally charged word, it can lead to a less-than-accurate view of the situation or patient being described, thus presenting a challenge to even the most experienced therapists and becoming one of the most complex disorders to treat. Through the use of one case study, however, experts in borderline personality disorders have put this difficulty at ease. Applying a variety of modalities to identify treatment goals, including: selecting assessment tools, conceptualizing progression, pinpointing pitfalls, and developing techniques, diagnosing and treating BPD has created a more successful therapeutic result.

Borderlines: Genders and Identities in War and Peace 1870-1930

1998 y.
Publisher: Routledge
Description: `Borderlines` brings the relationship between gender, nationalism and colonialism in the First World War to the forefront, locating the war in the broader context of 1870-1930. The contributors explore how the borders of feminine and masculine identities were formed, contested and reformed in relation to women`s and men`s lived experience of global modern war, revolution, the rise of new nationalisms and societal break-up. Drawing on a wide range of material, from governmental policies and propaganda to literature, the theater, subversive trench journalism and performance, the essays demonstrate how shifts in gender relations and identities, especially in the identities of women, were tied to the evolving integral and `cultural` nationalisms. With its multinational perspective and comparison between Western Europe and societies outside the West, and with broader periodization, `Borderlines` challenges interpretations about gender and the Great War as well as nationalism and… [detailed...]

Bordertown: The Odyssey of an American Place (The Lamar Series in Western History)

2008 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Mexico and America have met for eight generations on their shared border. In this compelling book, photographer Jeffrey Gusky and historian Benjamin Johnson capture this encounter through their mesmerizing portrayal of Roma, Texas. European culture left its mark here, but it was brought by mixed-race, Spanish-speaking pioneers who practiced Muslim irrigation techniques and believed that they were descended from Jews. Triumphant American armies made this region part of the United States, but the descendants of those they conquered have fought in every American conflict from the Civil War to Iraq. Racial strife divided this land, but slaves gained freedom by fleeing south to Mexico and Hispanics reacquired wealth and power by buying out Anglos. Although today the area is one of the poorest in the United States, the fortune that founded Citibank was made here and the town has inspired such authors as John Steinbeck and Larry McMurtry. In a time when the border is a source of controversy… [detailed...]

Boredom (New York Review Books Classics)

Description: The novels that the great Italian writer Alberto Moravia wrote in the years following the World War II represent an extraordinary survey of the range of human behavior in a fragmented modern society. Boredom , the story of a failed artist and pampered son of a rich family who becomes dangerously attached to a young model, examines the complex relations between money, sex, and imperiled masculinity. This powerful and disturbing study in the pathology of modern life is one of the masterworks of a writer whom as Anthony Burgess once remarked, was `always trying to get to the bottom of the human imbroglio.` [detailed...]

Borges and the Eternal Orangutans

2005 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book Description Jorge Luis Borges is the hero of this literary whodunit by one of Brazil`s most celebrated writers. Vogelstein is a loner who has always lived among books. Suddenly, fate grabs hold of his insignificant life and carries him offto Buenos Aires, to a conference on Edgar Allan Poe, the inventor of the modern detective story. There Vogelstein meets his idol, Jorge Luis Borges, and for reasons that a mere passion for literature cannot explain, he finds himself at the center of a murder investigation that involves arcane demons, the mysteries of the Kaballah, the possible destruction of the world, and the Elizabethan magus John Dee`s theory of the `Eternal Orangutan,` which, given all the time in the world, would end up writing all the known books in the cosmos. Verissimo`s small masterpiece is at once a literary tour de force and a brilliant mystery novel. [detailed...]

2004 y.
Publisher: Prestel
Description: Language: German The first photographic retrospective of one of the pioneers of Israeli photojournalism, this beautiful collection of black and white images by Boris Carmi is also a stirring narrative of Israeli life in the second half of the twentieth century. Spanning the final years of the British mandate, a wave of European immigrants, the War of Independence, and the deportation of Palestinian refugees, Boris Carmi?s work is characterized by its focus on human portrayal. The nearly one hundred photographs in this monograph make no overt political statement, but document life in a country riven by ethnic and social tension. Consequently, his war pictures, his portraits of artists and politicians, and his images of Israel?s beautiful women retain a powerful universal message of human dignity, and an unflagging optimism that speaks volumes.

Description: Celebrated Russian philosopher Boris Groys and Georgian artist Andro Wekua were convened for this publication to compare and discuss their experiences of contemporary art: the Soviet era, the contemporary conditions of production and the concerns of a new generation of artists born in the 1970s. Wekua`s two large installations `Wait to Wait` and `Get Out of my Room` serve as touchstones for these topics. As Groys and Wekua also explore their generational differences--Groys recalling the critical and social solidarity of Russian art circles in the 1970s, Wekua noting the nomadism and ubiquity of `scene` for his generation--broader themes of loneliness, doubles, repetitions and waiting emerge, which are punctuated in the book by images of the two installations and several collages by Wekua.

Description: Book DescriptionRarely has anyone photographed reality in such an unprettified way as Boris Mikhailov. He captures the unadorned and the natural, in pictures devoid of aesthetic exhaltation, he concentrates on people and their living conditions. On his journeys through Russia, Germany, and his Ukrainian homeland, Mikhailov has equally observed the poor, the well-to-do, the outcasts, and the homeless. ~ Look at Me, I Look at Water was composed in 1999 at the suggestion of the Heiner Muller-Society when Boris Mikhailov`s name was found in one of Heiner Muller`s notebooks. With this book Mikhailov is continuing, thematically and conceptionally, what he began with his artist`s book Unfinished Dissertation in 1985. The photographs are accompanied by handwritten Russian commentaries, which together give the impression of a private album which narrates stories from a chapter in the artist`s life. This was a time in my life of much travelling--from East to West, and… [detailed...]

Sasha was born not in the United States but in China, and she arrived there during a time of great economic and political distress. In the three years after her birth in 1956, a massive, politically in-duced famine left upwards of 30 million Chinese people dead. Sev-eral years later, communist party Chairman Mao Zedong launched the disastrous Great Proletarian Cultural Revolution, a massive, decade-long political campaign that turned millions of China`s most talented and potentially productive citizens into enemies of the state. Sasha says that being a citizen of the United States has allowed her to become more Chinese. The more American she becomes the prouder she is of her Chinese heritage, the more she is able to re-turn to its traditional Confucian values. Here in the United States, she says, she can be both American and… [detailed...]
