Ever since George Washington warned against ""foreign entanglements"" in his 1796 farewell speech, the United States has wrestled with how to act toward other countries. Consequently, the history of anti-Americanism is as long and varied as the history of the United States. In this multidisciplinary collection, seventeen leading thinkers provide substance and depth to the recent outburst of fast talk on the topic of anti-Americanism by analyzing its history and currency in five key global regions: the Middle East, Latin America, Europe, East Asia, and the United States. The commentary draws fr

Thanks to the advance of new technologies, online retailing has continued to thrive in the last decade. For instance, technologies like Augmented Reality (AR) revolutionized customer experience, particularly via its virtual-try-on application. Consequently, VTO provided an answer to the "fit, suit and match" dilemma that online retail always faced. Indeed, this technology is becoming popular and especially among Beauty companies. These latter recently started investing highly in VTO on social media. However, there is paucity of knowlege about the beauty VTO and its social dimensions. Accordingly, this work investigated VTO in the general beauty context, and social VTO via exploring consumers perceptions, attitudes and behavioural intentions. As a result, findings regarding VTO socialization were limited. However, VTO proved to positively impact attitudes and behavioural intentions in the beauty context. Lastly, this work revealed that beauty VTO has a higher utilitarian value.

The German pension system was the first formal pension system in the world, designed by Bismarck nearly 120 years ago. It has been very successful in providing high and reliable pension levels at reasonable contribution rates. While the generosity of the German pension system is considered a great social achievement, negative incentive effects of past reforms in the 1970s and 1980s and population aging are threatening the very core of the system. This has led to fundamental pension reforms since 1992. Based on a detailed simulation model of the German pension system, this book provides a thorough assessment of the system and its reforms. It shows that the latest reforms have put the system back onto a stable path and moved it from the old monolithic towards a multi-pillar system.
