Excerpt from The Problems of Transportation in Canada

Let us imitate their example, even if it should entail some slight temporary sacrifice on our part, for we could not leave a nobler legacy to our children, nor render a greater service to our country, than by rendering more perfect our means of communi cation and thereby uniting more closely the various provinces of our great Dominion.

    • Rechtliche Maßnahmen zur Bekämpfung der Markenpiraterie in China

        • Oliver Pausch (Author)

      Seminararbeit aus dem Jahr 2006 im Fachbereich Wirtschaft - Recht, einseitig bedruckt, Note: 1,3, Hochschule Reutlingen (Production Management), 27 Eintragungen im Literaturverzeichnis, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: „:Wer groß:e Meister kopiert, erweist Ihnen Ehre.' Konfuzius (551-479 v. Chr.) Die Einleitung der Seminararbeit zu diesem Thema mit einer Weisheit des chinesischen Philosophen Konfuzius zu beginnen, erscheint provokativ. Geht man jedoch davon aus, dass dieses Leitbild die Mentalitä:t der Chinesen widerspiegelt, so kann man nachvollziehen, dass in China bis vor einigen Jahren nur wenig Mittel zur Verfü:gung standen, um der Markenpira-terie entgegenzutreten. „:Der durch Patentrechtsverletzungen und Produktpiraterie verur-sachte Schaden belief sich allein fü:r deutsche Unternehmen im vergangenen Jahr auf schä:t-zungsweise 20 bis 25 Milliarden Euro. Ein groß:er Teil dieser Einbuß:en ist auf Patent- und Eigentumsrechtsverletzungen chinesischer Unternehmen zurü:ckzufü:hren.' Innerhalb der deutschen Industrie sind neben anderen der Maschinenbau und die Kfz-Industrie betroffen. Auslä:ndische Firmen, die in China tä:tig, sind suchen nach Wegen ihre Produkte und Marken zu schü:tzen. Ein rechtliches Vorgehen scheint erschwert. „:Faktisch sieht die Lage sehr schlecht aus, weil Sie fast nichts gegen Kopien machen kö:nnen ... Technologischer Rechts-schutz werde ... als Zukunftsthema betrachtet.' Diese zentrale Aussage soll in dieser Semi-nararbeit diskutiert werden. Durch den Beitritt Chinas zur WTO im Jahre 2001 und mit der Umsetzung des „:Agreement on Trade-related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights' (TRIPS) -Abkommens stehen mehr Maß:nahmen zur Verfü:gung, die ein effektiveres Vorge-hen gegen die Markenpiraterie in China ermö:glichen. Vor diesem Hintergrund untersucht die vorliegende Seminararbeit die dem Unternehmen und Schutzrechtsinhaber aktuell zur Verfü:gung stehenden rechtlichen Mö:glichkeiten zur Bekä:mpfung von Produkt- und Markenpiraterie. Dabei wird wie folgt vorgegang


    • All My Patients Kick and Bite

        • Jeff Wells (Author)

      In this second collection by our intrepid vet, Jeff Wells has his work cut out for him when he learns that Ilamas do not take kindly to having their toenails trimmed, dog owners in the medical field can be a real pain, Scottish Highland cattle stick together and just might run a vet out of their enclosure, and fixing an overly amorous burro often needs to be prioritized. Told with Wells' trademark humour and gentle touch, these and many other heartwarming, heartbreaking, funny and strange stories will give readers a completely new appreciation for those who care for our pets.


    • Industrial Ruins: Space, Aesthetics and Materiality

        • Tim Edensor(Author)

      Across Western cities, there is an increasing obsession with producing manicured landscapes. Standing in contrast to these aesthetically and socially regulated spaces are the neglected sites of industrial ruins, places on the margin which accommodate transgressive and playful activities. Providing a different aesthetic to the over-coded, over-designed spaces of the city, ruins evoke an aesthetics of disorder, surprise and sensuality, offering ghostly glimpses into the past and a tactile encounter with space and materiality. Tim Edensor highlights the danger of eradicating such evocative urban sites through policies that privilege homogeneous new developments. It is precisely their fragmentary nature and lack of fixed meaning that render ruins deeply meaningful. They blur boundaries between rural and urban, past and present and are intimately tied to memory, desire and a sense of place. Stunningly illustrated throughout, this book celebrates industrial ruins and reveals what they can tell us about ourselves and our past.

Avery F. Gordon, University of California, Santa Barbara 'Read this book, and you will never look at landscape in the same way again.'Paul Cloke, University of Bristol'An important addition to the bookshelves of industrial archaeologists, historians of the working class and students of contemporary culture.'Rob Shields, University of Alberta, Canada'In his compelling new monograph Industrial Ruins: Space Aesthetics , and Materiality, Tim Edensor sets out to undertake a much-needed landscape; what he finds by the end of his journey can hardly be considered terra nullius.'Benjamin Morris, Department of Archaeology, University of Cambridge'Edensor celebrates the industrial ruin and tells what such spaces and the artifacts they contain
