The Dutch Police is one of the largest owners of public real estate in the Netherlands. From police station to forensic laboratory, from listed buildings in the centre of The Hague to large-scale facilities next to the motorway in Driebergen: the task of accommodating the Police is as diverse as it is challenging. Themes such as innovation and sustainability, health and safety, as well as identity, flexibility and affordability are all of relevance for the Police’s accommodation strategy. Efforts are being made to strike a new balance between the physical, mobile and digital workplace.Since the formation of the National Police, there has been an enormous challenge to accommodate the organization. In realizing this task, the police has the ambition to raise the quality of police buildings as well as the experience users have in the buildings. At the same time, the police is at the heart of an ever changing society: The accommodation needs to meet the requirements posed by several developments such as the energy transition, climate change and digitization. How do these developments influence the task of future-proofing (cultural) heritage? Which role can our heritage buildings play in these transitions?The key lies in our present actions coupled with the lessons of the past. Different approaches on Built Heritage will open our eyes and help with today’s issues. To see what is valuable. Will the decisions made in the past be our strength or pitfall? How will objects developed in the past, exposed to today’s spatial developments, help us? Through the power of imagination, the Studio Vacantheritage from Heritage and Architecture proudly reveals many possibilities.

Auditive Texte haben Konjunktur: Hörspiele, Lesungen, Podcasts, Audioguides und elektroakustische Experimente zeigen die Vielfalt gehörter Geschichten. Die Beiträge systematisieren die unterschiedlichen Gegenstände hinsichtlich der Genrefrage oder modellieren theoretisch-methodische Zugänge, die in konkreten Analysen medienspezifisch exemplifiziert werden. Semiotische Zugänge stehen dabei neben kulturwissenschaftlichen und didaktischen Perspektiven. Hinweis zu Tr. 1 bis Tr. 12 der Audiodateien: "Die drei ???" ist eine Marke der Franckh-Kosmos Verlags GmbH & Co.KG. Mit freundlicher Genehmigung der SONY MUSIC Entertainment Germany GmbH. Auditive texts are on the rise: audio plays, readings, podcasts, audioguides, and electroacoustic experiments reveal the diversity of audible stories. The contributions in this volume systematize the genres of this diverse range of objects and model theoretical and methodological approaches that they apply in the analysis of media-specific examples. Semiotic approaches are accompanied by cultural studies perspectives.

Der Band präsentiert eine korpusbasierte, kognitionslinguistisch informierte, kritische Diskursanalyse zur sprachlichen Konstruktion von sozialen Großeinheiten wie Kollektiven und Eigen-Gruppen. Insbesondere die Rolle ‚des Westens‘ im sogenannten ‚Kampf der Kulturen‘ in deutschsprachigen Printmedien wird detailliert herausgearbeitet. Präzise analysiert wird der vielfältige Gebrauch des Personalpronomens ‚Wir‘. Die Datengrundlage der – qualitative und quantitative Zugänge verbindenden – repräsentativen Untersuchung bilden mehr als 100.000 Pressetexte deutschsprachiger Zeitschriften und Zeitungen, die in einem Zeitraum von 1993 bis 2019 erschienen sind. Mit ihrem interdisziplinären Zugriff richtet sich die Untersuchung nicht nur an ein linguistisches Fachpublikum, sondern an alle, die in sozialwissenschaftlicher und philosophischer Perspektive an dem komplexen Zusammenhang von Sprache und sozialen Konstruktionen, Diskurs und Identität, Medien und Kollektivität interessiert sind. Die Untersuchung liefert hierzu hochrelevante, korpuslinguistisch fundierte neue Forschungsergebnisse und innovative Terminologien. What is the "clash of civilizations"? What are us-group constructions? What is the West? This critical discourse analysis informed by cognitive linguistics answers these questions in detail using a data set comprising more than 100,000 German-language print media articles. It presents highly relevant findings on the use of "we" and "us," as well as on the media production of large social groups and political and cultural global conflicts.

This essential book details intermediate-level statistical methods and frameworks for the clinician and medical researcher with an elementary grasp of health statistics and focuses on selecting the appropriate statistical method for many scenarios. Detailed evaluation of various methodologies familiarizes readers with the available techniques and equips them with the tools to select the best from a range of options. The inclusion of a hypothetical case study between a clinician and statistician charting the conception of the research idea through to results dissemination enables the reader to understand how to apply the concepts covered into their day-to-day clinical practice. Applied Statistical Considerations for Clinical Researchers focuses on how clinicians can approach statistical issues when confronted with a medical research problem by considering the data structure, how this relates to their study's aims and any potential knock-on effects relating to the evidence required to make correct clinical decisions. It covers the application of intermediate-level techniques in health statistics making it an ideal resource for the clinician seeking an up-to-date resource on the topic.

This is an open access book discusses readers to various methods of modeling plans and policies that address public sector issues and problems. Written for public policy and social sciences students at the upper undergraduate and graduate level, as well as public sector decision-makers, it demonstrates and compares the development and use of various deterministic and probabilistic optimization and simulation modeling methods for analyzing planning and management issues. These modeling tools offer a means of identifying and evaluating alternative plans and policies based on their physical, economic, environmental, and social impacts. Learning how to develop and use the mathematical modeling tools introduced in this book will give students useful skills when in positions of having to make informed public policy recommendations or decisions.
