581	Intimate Partner Violence Predictors in an International Context: An Analysis of the International Violence against Women Survey Forrester, Trina K. 21 April 2011 (has links) Using the International Violence Against Women Survey (IVAWS), this paper identifies factors contributing to women’s individual risk of being victimized by their current intimate partner. Additionally, this analysis examines the overlap of physical and sexual violence within intimate relationships. Past research into IPV has identified a numerous predictor variables. Adapting nine such variables (controlling behaviours, male heavy drinking, female only income, female past marriage, female past IPV, respondents’ age, relationship duration, relationship status and violence outside the home) to the IVAWS dataset, a framework identifying risk patterns for physical and sexual violence was developed. The results identify a number of variables that performed as expected and increased a women’s risk of being a victim of IPV; however, some variables decreased women’s risk and therefore acted as protective factors. These findings suggest that IPV at the country level is more complex and requires additional research to fully explain the variation observed.

585	Den urbana integrationen av industriområden i Morges, Schweiz. : Utveckling och tillämpning av "best practices" i ett planeringssammanhang. / The urban integration of industrial zones in Morges, Switzerland. : Development and application of "best practices" in a planning context. Barbosa, William January 2017 (has links) Morges (Schweiz) växer i en situation av markbrist. Industriområden blir strategiska förtätningslägen, vilket hotar näringslivets förutsättningar på lång sikt. Detta examensarbete undersöker under vilka villkor industriområden i Morges kan integreras i funktionsblandad stadsmiljö utan att äventyra näringslivets förutsättningar. Fallstudier från Bern, Haag, Genève och Bryssel används som ”best practices” för att genomföra analysen. Analysen visar att hanteringen av störningar och logistik samt ett stort offentligt ingripande är nyckelfaktorer för att tillgodose näringslivets utveckling i ett funktionsblandat område. ”Best practices” visar sig kunna vara effektiva om de används som stöd i beslutsfattande och som inspirationskälla. / The region of Morges (Switzerland) grows in a context of land shortage. Industrial zones become strategic areas for denser settlements, threatening the local economic development in the long term. This master thesis investigates the conditions in which industrial zones in the region of Morges can be integrated in a function mixed urban area without jeopardising local activities. Case studies from Bern, The Hague, Geneva and Brussels are used as “best practices” in order to perform the analysis. Results show that the monitoring of disturbances and of logistics as well as a strong public commitment are key factors to a successful reconversion of industrial zones towards functional mix. “Best practices” are efficient if used as a support to decision making and as a source of inspiration. / La région de Morges (VD, Suisse) se développe dans un contexte de pression foncière. Les zones industrielles (ZIZA) deviennent des sites stratégiques de densification, menaçant l’économie locale à terme. Ce travail de master étudie les conditions d’une intégration urbaine des zones industrielles de la région morgienne qui ne menace pas les activités locales. Des études de cas de Berne, La Haye, Genève et Bruxelles sont utilisés comme des « bonnes pratiques » pour répondre à la question de recherche. Les résultats montrent que la gestion des nuisances et de la logistique ainsi qu’une forte action publique sont des facteurs clés de réussite d’une requalification d’une zone industrielle vers une zone mixte. Les « bonnes pratiques » s’avèrent efficaces en tant qu’aide à la décision et en tant que source d’inspiration. / Die Region Morges (VD, Schweiz) gerät in einem Mangel an Bauland. Die Industriezonen werden als strategische Verdichtungsgebiete betrachtet. Langfristig wird die Region als Standort bedroht. Diese Masterarbeit untersucht, inwiefern die Industriezonen der Region Morges städtebaulich integriert werden können, ohne die lokalen Gewerben zu drohen. Fallstudien aus Bern, Den Haag, Genf und Brüssel werden als „Best Practices“ benutzt, um die Analyse durchzuführen. Aus der Analyse ergibt sich, dass die Steuerung der Störungen und der Logistik sowie ein starkes öffentliches Eingreifen Schlüsselfaktoren für eine gelungene funktionelle Durchmischung in Industriezonen sind. „Best Practices“ erweisen sich als effizient, wenn sie als Entscheidungshilfe und als Inspirationsquelle benutzt werden.

586	Carl Friedrich Geiser and Ferdinand Rudio : the men behind the first International Congress of Mathematicians Eminger, Stefanie Ursula January 2015 (has links) The first International Congress of Mathematicians (ICM) was held in Zurich in 1897, setting the standards for all future ICMs. Whilst giving an overview of the congress itself, this thesis focuses on the Swiss organisers, who were predominantly university professors and secondary school teachers. As this thesis aims to offer some insight into their lives, it includes their biographies, highlighting their individual contributions to the congress. Furthermore, it explains why Zurich was chosen as the first host city and how the committee proceeded with the congress organisation. Two of the main organisers were the Swiss geometers Carl Friedrich Geiser (1843-1934) and Ferdinand Rudio (1856-1929). In addition to the congress, they also made valuable contributions to mathematical education, and in Rudio's case, the history of mathematics. Therefore, this thesis focuses primarily on these two mathematicians. As for Geiser, the relationship to his great-uncle Jakob Steiner is explained in more detail. Furthermore, his contributions to the administration of the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology are summarised. Due to the overarching theme of mathematical education and collaborations in this thesis, Geiser's schoolbook "Einleitung in die synthetische Geometrie" is considered in more detail and Geiser's methods are highlighted. A selection of Rudio's contributions to the history of mathematics is studied as well. His book "Archimedes, Huygens, Lambert, Legendre" is analysed and compared to E W Hobson's treatise "Squaring the Circle". Furthermore, Rudio's papers relating to the commentary of Simplicius on quadratures by Antiphon and Hippocrates are considered, focusing on Rudio's translation of the commentary and on "Die Möndchen des Hippokrates". The thesis concludes with an analysis of Rudio's popular lectures "Leonhard Euler" and "Über den Antheil der mathematischen Wissenschaften an der Kultur der Renaissance", which are prime examples of his approach to the history of mathematics. 510.92
587	Recepce «germánského chorálního dialektu» v první polovině 20. století / The reception of the german dialect of the gregorian chant between 1900 an aprox. 1950 Zimmer, Markus January 2021 (has links) The reception of the german dialect of the gregorian chant between 1900 an aprox. 1950 (Abstract) In today's musicology, the germanic chant dialect («germanischer Choraldialekt») ist nearly unimportant. Especially in the first half of the 20th century, it was very different. In particular, the invention of the term by Peter Wagner of Fribourg in 1925 promoted the perception of a melodic phenomenon, which can be found equally in many sources of plain chant in central europe. The oldest witnesses of the phenomenon are adiastematic sources, the youngest ones were restored, restituted or newly composed in the first half of the 20th century. So this tradition is existing for more than 1000 years. The present work examines how this tradition has been scientifically, historically and practically elaborated in the last century. The chapter on the history of research shows that the phenomenon of the germanic chant dialect was still considered a local tradition of individual dioceses or monasteries in the 19th century. Michael Hermesdorff from Trier was the first to recognize striking similarities between these fragmented traditions; his pupil Peter Wagner founded the basics of the scientific research. Not all musicologists agreed with Wagner's findings and explanations, but his term and his theory prevailed. In the...
