Der demografische Wandel stellt die Kommunen u. a. aufgrund der Kinder- und Jugendlastigkeit der kommunalen Ausgaben und Kostenremanenzeffekten vor vielgestaltige Herausforderungen. Diese Effekte überprüft Tim Starke auf Basis eines Datensatzes für die Gemeinden Mecklenburg-Vorpommerns im Zeitraum 2000-2016. Er kommt zu dem Ergebnis, dass ein Bevölkerungsrückgang und höhere Anteile der unter 6-Jährigen sowie 6- bis 18-Jährigen zu einem höheren Niveau der Zuschussbeträge je Einwohner führen. Der entlastende Effekt eines Anstiegs der über 65-Jährigen fällt zudem weitaus geringer aus als der belastende Effekt durch eine rückläufige Einwohnerzahl. Zusätzlich zeigen die Resultate der geografisch gewichteten Regression einen statistisch signifikant stärkeren Kostenremanenzeffekt in Gemeinden mit einem höheren Bevölkerungsrückgang. Die Effekte der demografischen Entwicklung sollten daher bei der Bestimmung des Finanzbedarfs im Schlüsselzuweisungssystem des Kommunalen Finanzausgleichs differenziert berücksichtigt werden.

Examining how Marxist theory is missing but necessary, this book traces the theoretical maze in which Marxism currently finds itself, and from which it is trying to exit whilst at the same time remaining epistemologically intact. When stripped of any or all of its core elements - such as class formation/consciousness/struggle, and a socialist transition - it ceases to be what historically Marxists have claimed it is. Consequently, the book constitutes an attempt by Marxist political economy to extricate itself from mistaken attempts to conflate it with the cultural turn, identity politics, bourgeois economics, or varieties of populism and nationalism, together with the danger of not doing so.

Organizational Identity and Memory analyzes the relationship between organizational identity and organizational memory, in particular history and commemoration. The goal is to further our understanding of the role of this relationship in processes critical to today's organizations: the evolution of organizational identity, the creation and use of organizational memory, organizational learning and change, and employee identification with organizations. The literature on organizational memory and organizational identity has developed independently and at times in separate disciplines. Scholars have debated whether organizational identity is mutable or enduring. In this debate, organizational history, a form of organizational memory, has been a key factor, but neither side of the debate has pursued indepth the well-developed literature on collective memory to understand this relationship and its impact on organizational identity. Organizational memory defined as commemoration and history has been connected to different forms of identity, both national and organizational, but this relationship and its impact on organizational memory processes has not been explored. Organizational Identity and Memory takes a multidisciplinary approach to explore and articulate the dynamic relationship between organizational identity and memory, drawing on work from anthropology, history, organizational studies, and sociology. A multidisciplinary theoretical framework for future research on organizational identity and memory is presented. Implications for managers are discussed with engaging insights from organizational research and practices in creating corporate museums, galleries, visitor centers, and other displays of this relationship.

"The unconscious dynamics that surface in groups when authority is exercised are of paramount importance in Group Relations Conferences; this volume addresses these considerations through research findings and speculation on the future of Group Relations both within conferences and outside of them. This is the sixth instalment in a series of books based on Tavistock Group Relations Conferences and contains a collection of papers presented at the sixth Belgirate conference. Combining chapters on theory and practice, this volume delivers a meditation on the relationships between the physical spaces we inhabit or co-create, the psychic, inner or spiritual space and the liminal space in-between. Group Relations provides a window of understanding into why inequity and intergroup hostilities pervade the modern world alongside a method that illuminates how people consciously and unconsciously contribute to these tensions, whether personally, in groups or in organisations. This will be an invaluable resource for practitioners, academics, and scholars of Group Relations, as well as managers and organisational members wanting to learn more about how Group Relations methods can contribute to their organisational success"-- Provided by publisher.
