 Sabine Cherenfant, "Domestic vs. Offshore Manufacturing " English | ISBN: 1534507116 | 2021 | 176 pages | EPUB | 5 MB In an increasingly globalized world, offshore manufacturing is often favored over domestic manufacturing for its ability to meet greater demands for goods that can be manufactured at lower costs, ultimately saving both companies and consumers money. However, a number of concerns also arise when examining offshoring's impact on a domestic and international scale. Some argue that offshoring results in the exploitation of workers from lower-income countries, while others express concern over the potential loss of domestic jobs that can result from it. This volume examines the benefits and drawbacks of domestic and offshore manufacturing through numerous points of contention.  Digital Storytelling, Mediatized Stories: Self-representations in New Media By Knut Lundby (editor) 2008 | 314 Pages | ISBN: 1433102749 | PDF | 13 MB Recent years have seen amateur personal stories, focusing on «me», flourish on social networking sites and in digital storytelling workshops.

Its approach is interdisciplinary, exploring how the mediation or mediatization processes of digital storytelling can be grasped and offering a sociological perspective of media studies and a socio-cultural take of the educational sciences. Aesthetic and literary perspectives on narration as well as questioning from an informatics perspective are also included.

Focusing on the first and second generations of critical theorists and Luhmann's systems theory, the book examines how each approaches epistemology. It opens by looking at twentieth-century epistemology, particularly the concept of lifeworld (Lebenswelt). It then moves on to discuss structuralism, poststructuralism, critical realism, the epistemological problematics of Foucault's writings and the dialectics of systems theory. The aim is to explore whether the focal point for epistemology and the sciences remain that social and political interests actually form a concrete point of concern for the sciences as well. |
