What is fair? The choice of an allocation norm, whether it be need, merit or equality, can either foster cooperation or conflict. Because of the general irreconcilability of these principles of justice, people are forced to make complex trade-offs when allocating resources. The resulting decisions are shaped by individual factors and context, but also the situation in which an allocation problem arises. Addressing these three levels simultaneously and taking the inherent interdependency of outcomes into consideration, this book adheres to a mechanism-based approach. Its findings support a functionalist perspective on distributive justice, highlighting the inherent relevance of the relational structure for the choice of allocation norms. Was ist gerecht? Die Wahl einer Allokationsnorm, sei es Gleichheit, Bedarf oder Leistung, kann zu Kooperation führen oder Konflikte begünstigen. Da diese Prinzipien generell unvereinbar sind, sind Menschen bei Verteilungsproblemen gezwungen komplexe Abwägungen zu machen. Ihre Entscheidungen sind dabei von individuellen, kontextuellen sowie situationellen Faktoren beeinflusst. Dieses Buch verfolgt einen Mechanismen-basierten Ansatz, der diese drei Ebenen berücksichtigt und dem Umstand Rechnung trägt, dass die Outcomes bei Verteilungsproblemen interdependent sind. Die Resultate sind in Einklang mit einer funktionalistischen Perspektive und verdeutlichen die inhärente Relevanz der Beziehungsstruktur für die Wahl von Gerechtigkeitsprinzipien.

Education of pupils with learning disabilities has been in the centre of attention of teachers, parents as well as the general public. When solving our project we verified several ways of teaching mathematics at an ordinary primary school, which might help included pupils to handle some of their problems with this subject. Key activities had been prepared in order to introduce new approaches to teaching pupils with learning disorders in heterogeneous classes, with respect to development and strengthening of pupils' competences. Our project gave a positive outcome in changing attitudes of the included pupils to mathematics and improvement of their results. Also, the structured way of teaching mathematics helped most pupils in the class.

The methodological guide focuses on developing social, emotional, and communication skills of students with Asperger syndrome and their classmates, teachers, assistant teachers, and the school staff. We aim to extend knowledge on the specific approaches to students with AS in the inclusive classroom. We offer coping strategies in situations arising from the interaction between the school actors. A classroom adaptation and fostering positive relationships between classmates are the critical factors for positive school experiences of everybody. We present specific cases from the participatory classroom observation. Furthermore, we discuss the difficulties in the inclusive classroom and offer incentives to prevent these situations. We provide the readers with the specific activities for the groups with the students with AS.

Inspections have a statistically significant impact on firms' environmental performance in the Chinese city of Zhenjiang, and citizens' complaints have a significant impact on inspections. So stronger information and education campaigns may improve social welfare in the city; Little empirical research has been done on monitoring and enforcement issues in environmental economics, especially to analyze the impact of monitoring and enforcement on polluters' environmental performance. No studies have been done in developing economies. Dasgupta, Laplante, Mamingi, and Wang explore the impact of inspections, and the potential impact of pollution charges and citizens' complaints, on the environmental performance of polluters in China. Their analysis of plant-level data from the city of Zhenjiang shows that: Inspections have a statistically significant impact on firms' environmental performance; Pollution charges do not have a statistically significant effect on firms' performance - although the lack of variation in pollution charges in Zhenjiang precludes effectively capturing their impact; Complaints have a significant impact on inspections and therefore on pollution control. Currently available data do not allow analysis of whether the cost of additional inspections is justified, but it is reasonable to speculate that additional inspections would improve social welfare in Zhenjiang and that information and education campaigns are probably a good way to encourage citizen complaints. This paper - a product of Infrastructure and Environment, Development Research Group - is part of a larger effort in the group to study environmental regulation in developing countries. The study was funded by the Bank's Research Support Budget under the research project Pollution Control in China: The Role and Impact of Inspection and Complaints (RPO 682-44).

Auf der Suche nach Bewältigungsstrategien für globale Krisen braucht es Alternativen zu den vorherrschenden Wohlstandsmodellen. Wie kann ein gutes, gelingendes und gesundes Leben innerhalb der planetaren Grenzen aussehen? Welche Praktiken und Prozesse prägen eine sorgende Wohlstandsorientierung? Und welche Widersprüche ergeben sich aus den entsprechenden Transformationsimpulsen? Die Beiträger*innen vereinen Positionen und Perspektiven auf veränderte Wohlstandsverhältnisse jenseits von wirtschaftlichem Wachstum. Mit Blick auf aktuelle Krisenkontexte hinterfragen sie überkommene Ansätze, skizzieren nachhaltige Alternativen und zeigen auf, welche Unterstützung Politik und Planung für eine zukunftsfähige Raumentwicklung leisten können.
