description: The affirmation of this thesis is: The justification of Christian Ethics is demonstrated in terms of life. Christian Ethics may be defined as the science of living according to Christianity. Christianity has proved to he a great creative force in the life of the world, and its chief function and value consist in its contribution to morality. Christian Ethics does not follow an abstract theory of virtue, but proceeds from a creative person. That person is Jesus Christ. Christianity was first known as a way of life. The life of its Founder was such that he holds the supreme place in the realm of ethics. Jesus came that men might have a more abundant life. The life which he teaches men to live is a life crowned with moral excellence. Letting one's light shine before men is for the purpose of revealing to them good works.

description: Though mammalian spinal cord injury (SCI) has long been a topic of study, effective therapies that promote functional recovery are not yet available. The axolotl, Ambystoma mexicanum, is a valuable animal model in the investigation of spinal cord regeneration, as this urodele is able to achieve functional recovery even after complete spinal cord transection. Understanding the similarities and differences between the mammalian SCI response and that of the axolotl provides insight into the process of successful regeneration, and bolsters the fundamental knowledge used in the development of future mammalian SCI treatments. This thesis provides a detailed analysis of the ultrastructure of the axolotl meninges, as this has not yet been presented in existing literature, and reveals that the axolotl meninges consist of 3 distinct layers as does mammalian meninges; the dura mater, arachnoid mater, and pia mater. The role of reactive meningeal and ependymal cells is also investigated in regard to the deposition and remodeling of the fibrotic ECM, which is found to be similar in composition to hydrogel scaffolds being studied in mammalian SCI. It is shown that meningeal fibroblasts are the primary source of the extensive fibrillar collagen deposition that fills the entire spinal canal, peaking at approximately 3 weeks post transection and remaining until approximately 5 weeks post transection, and that there is no deposition of type IV collagen within the lesion site. Mesenchymal ependymal cells are shown to contribute to the ECM deposition through the production of glycosaminoglycans that are used in sidechains of both unsulfated and sulfated proteoglycans, while simultaneously remodeling the ECM through the production of MMPs and phagocytosis of cellular debris. Further, this study shows that mesenchymal ependymal cells and a population of foamy macrophages contribute to the degradation of the fibrin clot that forms in the acute phase of injury, and that this fibrin clot provides a necessary and permissive substrate for early mesenchymal outgrowth.

description:
BACKGROUND: Sleep phenotypes have been reported to be associated with cognitive ageing outcomes. However, there is limited research using genetic variants as proxies for sleep traits to study their associations. We estimated associations between Polygenic Risk Scores (PRSs) for sleep duration, insomnia, daytime sleepiness, and obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) and measures of cogntive ageing in Hispanic/Latino adults. METHODS: We used summary statistics from published genome-wide association studies to construct PRSs representing the genetic basis of each sleep trait, then we studied the association of the PRSs of the sleep phenotypes with cognitive outcomes in the Hispanic Community Healthy Study/Study of Latinos. The primary model adjusted for age, sex, study centre, and measures of genetic ancestry. Associations are highlighted if their p-value <0.05. FINDINGS: Higher PRS for insomnia was associated with lower global cognitive function and higher risk of mild cognitive impairment (MCI) (OR = 1.20, 95% CI [1.06, 1.36]). Higher PRS for daytime sleepiness was also associated with increased MCI risk (OR = 1.14, 95% CI [1.02, 1.28]). Sleep duration PRS was associated with reduced MCI risk among short and normal sleepers, while among long sleepers it was associated with reduced global cognitive function and with increased MCI risk (OR = 1.40, 95% CI [1.10, 1.78]). Furthermore, adjustment of analyses for the measured sleep phenotypes and APOE-ε4 allele had minor effects on the PRS associations with the cognitive outcomes. INTERPRETATION: Genetic measures underlying insomnia, daytime sleepiness, and sleep duration are associated with MCI risk. Genetic and self-reported sleep duration interact in their effect on MCI.

description: Security sector reform (SSR) has come to be a cornerstone of the state-building project in postconflict contexts, providing an enabling environment for peacebuilding and development. However, an examination of the Afghan and Iraqi cases illustrates that the SSR model applied there is illequipped to confront the challenges of post-conflict environments. The failure to actualise the holistic, people-centred aims envisaged in both cases highlights a disjuncture between policy and practice consistent with the SSR experience in other post-conflict cases. This has led to questions concerning the feasibility of the SSR model in the aftermath of September 11. This article argues that resolving the crisis in which the SSR process is mired requires its re-conceptualisation and a fundamental shift in donor policy and practices.

title: Spannungsverhältnis Entwicklung und Tourismus
Creators: name: Maurer, Elsa
Year: 2017

description: Der Tourismus ist heute einer der weltweit wichtigsten Wirtschaftssektoren. In Ländern wie Ghana ist das Hauptziel dabei oftmals eine schnelle Entwicklung zu erreichen, welche durch die positiven ökonomischen Auswirkungen des Tourismus auf die lokale Bevölkerung entstehen soll. Doch dieses Vorhaben wird meist durch die negativen Folgen getrübt. Denn man ist heute relativ einheitlich der Meinung, dass der Tourismus auch das lokale soziokulturelle oder umweltpolitische Umfeld negativ beeinflussen kann. Aus diesem Grund haben sich in den vergangenen Jahren unzählige neuen Formen und Ansätze touristischer Entwicklung gebildet, die auf nachhaltigen Strukturen basieren sollen, um so eine positive Entwicklung eines Landes oder einer Region zu erreichen. Die Frage, ob Tourismus zur Entwicklung eines Staates einen wertvollen Beitrag leisten kann, wird seit den 1960er Jahren in diversen wissenschaftlichen und entwicklungspolitischen Diskussionen versucht zu klären. Diese Masterarbeit soll, mit ihrem geographischen Fokus Ghana, einen Beitrag zu dieser Debatte leisten.Hierfür wird in der Arbeit versucht zu klären, welche Formen touristischer Gestaltung in Ghana existieren, welchen Stellenwert Nachhaltigkeit dabei hat, und wie diese Ansätze zur Entwicklung des Landes beitragen.
description: Tourism has become one of the most important sectors of economy in recent years worldwide. In countries like Ghana the main goal is often to achieve quick development which occurs when tourism has a positive economical impact on the local population. The intention, however, is often clouded by negative consequences, because the majority of experts believes that tourism has the ability to negatively influence local socio-cultural and ecopolitical surroundings. These are some of the reasons why in recent years a plethora of new ways and attempts of touristic development that focus on sustainable structures have emerged in order to achieve positive progress of a country or region. The question whether tourism in the developing world can act as a valuable contribution to a country's development has been subject to a lot of research and various developmental discussions since the 1960s. This master thesis, with its geographical focus on Ghana, aims to aid in the understanding of this issue. It tries to clarify what kinds of touristic layouts exist in Ghana, the importance of sustainability and how these contribute to the country's development.

title: Das World Wide Web als Instrument zur Förderung der Lernerautonomie im Fremdsprachenunterricht
Creators: name: Hieß, Patrizia
Year: 2017

description: Die vorliegende Diplomarbeit handelt von zwei Themen, die in der aktuellen bildungspolitischen Diskussion von hoher Relevanz sind, nämlich Lernerautonomie und das Lernen mit neuen Medien. Es wird versucht darzulegen, wie das Potenzial der neuen Medien im fremdsprachlichen Unterricht – mit besonderem Augenmerk auf den Französischunterricht – ausgeschöpft werden kann, um die Lernerautonomie von SchülerInnen zu fördern. Des Weiteren wird die Rolle von Lernerautonomie und der Integration digitaler Medien im österreichischen Fremdsprachenunterricht untersucht. Im theoretischen Teil dieser Arbeit wird der Terminus ‚Lernerautonomie‘ diskutiert, indem aufgezeigt wird, welche Bedeutung der Begriff bei unterschiedlichen Wissenschaftlern hat. Dabei werden unterschiedliche Konzeptionen von Lernerautonomie vorgestellt, bei denen vor allem die Eigenverantwortlichkeit des Lernenden, dessen Reflexionsfähigkeit sowie die gekonnte Anwendung von Strategien im Mittelpunkt stehen. Da die Inklusion von neuen Medien im Fremdsprachenunterricht als besonders Lernerautonomie fördernd gilt und im digitalen Zeitalter zunehmend relevanter wird, werden außerdem zahlreiche Möglichkeiten von Aktivitäten im Französischunterricht vorgestellt, die die Lernerautonomie von SchülerInnen steigern sollen. Der Fokus liegt dabei auf Sprachenlernen im Tandem, Podcasting und der WebQuest-Methode. Der analytische Teil dieser Diplomarbeit ist einer Bestandsaufnahme hinsichtlich der Rolle der Lernerautonomie und der Einbindung von neuen Medien im österreichischen Fremdsprachenunterricht gewidmet. Dabei wurde festgestellt, dass die beiden untersuchten Themen insgesamt eine sehr große Rolle im österreichischen Curriculum der AHS, im GERS und auch in den beiden analysierten Französisch-Lehrwerken („Voyages 2“ und „Découvertes 2“) spielen. Im Curriculum und dem GERS wird Lernerautonomie als wesentliches Lernziel des Fremdsprachenunterrichts wiederholt ausdrücklich betont. Die beiden untersuchten Lehrwerke versuchen Lernerautonomie vor allem anhand von Lernstrategieanwendung und „Ich-Kann-Listen“, die zum Ziel haben, die Selbsteinschätzung der Lernenden zu trainieren, zu integrieren. Die Lehrwerke bieten außerdem zahlreiche Möglichkeiten, die Zielsprache auch online und mithilfe digitaler Anwendungen zu erlernen. Die Signifikanz neuer Medien wird auch im Curriculum und dem GERS hervorgehoben, allerdings wird in keinem der beiden Dokumente detailliert auf spezifische Anwendungen eingegangen, was vermutlich in der Schnelllebigkeit digitaler Technologien begründet liegt.

description: This thesis examines the social and political stature of Black Americans historically to determine the need for cinematic arts with Black ethnic orientation. It explores specific obstacles Black filmmakers encounter as they develop, market, and distribute their productions. In discussion on the evolution of cinema in relation to Black America, this study exposes a need for and development of a Black aesthetic and the independent filmmaker, and Black political activism. The study proceeds with an analysis of the organizational structure of the modern Black filmmaker to recognize their progress and identify continued obstacles to the mission and management of the Black film industry. In the examination of two successful Black independent films, the study reveals the significance of the Black aesthetic to modern Black filmmakers and shows the potential profitability of these films despite much controversy.

The Need for Black American Cinematic Arts: The State of the Black Independent Filmmaker
Creators: name: Richardson, Angela
Publisher: name: American University
Year: 2023

description: This thesis examines the social and political stature of Black Americans historically to determine the need for cinematic arts with Black ethnic orientation. It explores specific obstacles Black filmmakers encounter as they develop, market, and distribute their productions. In discussion on the evolution of cinema in relation to Black America, this study exposes a need for and development of a Black aesthetic and the independent filmmaker, and Black political activism. The study proceeds with an analysis of the organizational structure of the modern Black filmmaker to recognize their progress and identify continued obstacles to the mission and management of the Black film industry. In the examination of two successful Black independent films, the study reveals the significance of the Black aesthetic to modern Black filmmakers and shows the potential profitability of these films despite much controversy.

title: Vorreformatorische Kritik an religiöser Praxis am Beispiel von Joachim Vadians "Scholia in Pomponius Melam" (Wien: Singriener 1518)
Creators: name: Bolldorf, Anne Alice
Year: 2017

description: Vadians Kommentar zum römischen Geographen Pomponius Mela darf neben der Poetik (De poetica et carminis ratione, Wien: Singriener 1518) als das bedeutendste Produkt seiner Jahre an der Wiener Universität gelten und hat in der rezenten Forschung bereits einige Aufmerksamkeit erhalten, nicht zuletzt im Rahmen eines neu erwachten Interesses an humanistischer Kommentarliteratur. Dabei werden jedoch fast ausschließlich die wesentlich umfangreicheren Basler Drucke ab 1522 betrachtet, die essayartige, oft aktualisierende, zeitkritische Exkurse enthalten und Vadian als Anhänger der Reformation zeigen (so z.B. in seiner Kritik an der den Heiligen zugeschriebenen Mittlerfunktion bei der Besprechung des Asklepioskultes von Epidaurus). Kaum beachtet wird dagegen, dass bereits der Wiener Druck – wenn auch in geringerem Umfang – kritische Bemerkungen zu Fastenpraxis und Werkgerechtigkeit sowie zu kostspieligem Funeralpomp, der der christlichen Auferstehungshoffnung zuwiderlaufe, enthält. In der vorgelegten Diplomarbeit werden die entsprechenden Abschnitte in Text und Übersetzung vorgestellt, kurz kommentiert und in Beziehung zu Aussagen von Reformatoren (Luther, Zwingli) sowie zur gelebten seelsorgerischen Praxis der evangelischen Kirchen gesetzt.
