Esta tese examina a experiência de colonização da colônia Dona Francisca, um dos maiores e mais importantes núcleos de colonização alemã do Brasil no século XIX. Fundada em 1851, na região nordeste de Santa Catarina, a colônia Dona Francisca, hoje município de Joinville, foi concebida e organizada pela Sociedade Colonizadora de 1849 em Hamburgo, empresa alemã especificamente constituída para colonizar parte das terras pertencentes ao patrimônio dotal da Princesa Dona Francisca em Santa Catarina. As principais fontes de arquivo utilizadas neste estudo compreendem um conjunto variado de documentos: títulos e listas de proprietários de terras, contratos de concessão, compra e venda de terrenos, correspondências de imigrantes, livros-caixa e documentos da direção da colônia, crônicas e jornais de época e relatórios da direção da Sociedade Colonizadora de 1849 em Hamburgo. As evidências apresentadas nesta tese questionam e complementam os estudos da história de Joinville e da formação econômica de Santa Catarina. Ao mesmo tempo, amplia o escopo de análise da história econômica do Brasil ao oferecer dados quantitativos, estatísticas e indicadores que permitem avaliar o grau de concentração da posse da terra e o desenvolvimento econômico inicial de Joinville, uma economia organizada a partir do trabalho livre do colono europeu e da pequena produção mercantil voltada aos abastecimentos interno e externo. / This thesis has examined the experience of colonization of the Dona Francisca colony, one of the largest and most important centers of German colonization in Brazil in the nineteenth century. Established in 1851 in the northeast region of Santa Catarina (Brazil), the Dona Francisca colony, current Joinville city, was conceived and organized by the \"Colonization Society of 1849 in Hamburg\", a German company specifically constituted in order to colonize part of the lands, which belonged to the Princess Dona Francisca\'s nuptial patrimony, in Santa Catarina. The main archive sources used in this research have included a varied set of documents. Among them are titles and lists of landowners, contracts of concession, buying and selling of lands, immigrants\' correspondence, and book of accounts and of documents of the colony direction, memorial and journal from that time beyond reports from Colonization Society of 1849, in Hamburg. The presented evidences in this thesis have questioned and complemented the studies on History of the Joinville city as well as the economic formation of Santa Catarina. Simultaneously, it has expanded the scope of Brazilian economic history analysis by offering quantitative data, statistics, and indicators that allow evaluating the concentration of land property and initial economic development of Joinville city, of which economy was organized from the free labor of the European colonists and small mercantile production that supplied both internal and external markets.

This thesis defines the most important transport documents used in the carriage of goods by sea. It describes the way how they are used and the functions they perform. The main emphasis is focused on the bill of lading which is mostly used in the liner shipping and on the Charter Party, which is the basis of the realization of the tramp shipping. The thesis gives a comprehensive overview of a complicated international legislation of the liability relations in the maritime transport, which are differently regulated in the Hague, Hague-Visby and Hamburg rules at present. There is also provided a basic overview of the maritime transport risks and the possibility of their coverage in order to reduce the negative impact of eventual damages.

This master thesis deals with the development of the academic relations between the Czechoslovak Socialist Republic and the Federal Republic of Germany during the so-called normalization, so from the beginning of the 1970s to the fall of the so-called Iron Curtain. The main focus lies on the inter-university partnership between Charles University in Prague and the University of Hamburg, which was concluded in Prague in 1980 and is successfully carried out till today. It was the first cooperation agreement Charles University made with a West German university during the period of the cold war. The thesis analyses, in which way both universities approached the partnership and how the cooperation could be put into practice. The main objective of the text is to find out which dynamics the partnership in the observed period gained and if the cooperation even managed to overcome the original expectations of the main actors considering the given conditions within the domestic and international politics. The examined cooperation is put into a broader context, not only of the development of the Czechoslovak-West German relations but also of the situation within international politics. The partnership was possible to negotiate thanks to bilateral agreements, which arranged the further development of the...

In this qualitative, interpretive, multi-perspective study a new and promising salutogenic imagery approach developed in Germany, called Value-Oriented Imagery (Wertimagination/WIM®) was researched in regard to its applicability in multicultural (non-European) contexts. A second question researched was whether specific cultural or regional “dialects” would be encountered in the universal inner picture language of persons from other (non-European) cultural backgrounds than the one the approach was developed within. A WIM® study with eighteen participants from African South African, Asian South African and European South African cultural backgrounds was conducted in Johannesburg in 2011 and 2012. The results were analysed and compared with WIM® work experiences from Germany. Subsequently the results of the comparison were discussed in three WIM® expert interviews: with Uwe Boeschemeyer, Stephan Peeck and Andreas Boeschemeyer. The main outcome of this research study is that Value-Oriented Imagery can be seen as a rewarding contribution to South African multicultural (logo)therapy/ counselling contexts. Only minor cultural and regional “dialects” occurred in the universal inner symbols of the RSA study participants, such as the occurrence of more water features, especially waterfalls, and more spontaneous, unintended Healthy Inner Child encounters. The present study suggests that work with Value- Oriented Imagery could make a valuable contribution within any cultural and multicultural (logo)therapy/counselling context. / Psychology / D.
