Noteworthy Feature

The aim of this article is to reconstruct the picture of the missionary as it appears in the writings of St Bruno of Querfurt (d.1009). Scholars have noted for a long time that St Bruno saw a very close link between the missionary calling and martyrdom. From his writings it becomes quite clear that he personally had a desire to suffer martyrdom. Such a desire, however, did not have much in common with a precipitous drive to become a martyr. He saw it, rather, as a crown awaiting the missionary at the end of a long road of self-mortification and self-renunciation. He put forward for himself and for his ascetic readers a three-stage course of perfection: community life (coenobium) for beginners, a life in seclusion (eremus) for the advanced, and the mission to the pagans for the most perfect. Such a course of ascetic life was characteristic of Irish and Anglo-Saxon monks (in the sixth-eighth centuries) whose pilgrimages tended to evolve into missionary trips among the pagans. In the context of medieval missionaries St Bruno stood out as he personally pondered over this issue in a methodological fashion. In the eyes of the saint, preparation for missionary activities should lead to rational martyrdom (rationale martyrium) in which one could hardly fail to notice the original notion of martyrdom as a witness to the Faith. Another noteworthy feature of St Bruno’s thoughts may be his insistence on having a papal licence to conduct evangelization, which was not asked for usually in his days. Thus, he may be viewed not only as a devotee of St Peter and his successors, but also as an advocate of papal missions, which tended to be most promising to newly converted rulers and their subjects.

This article aims to point out the role of metamorphosis in Anglo- Saxon ballads, Albanian ballads and frontier warrior songs. The Anglo- Saxon ballads and Albanian frontier warrior songs and ballads came into existence a long time ago and they had a certain number of influences which as a result had their great impact on their creation, development and circumstances when and where they were composed. They were created as a consequence of some special historical, cultural and social development. It has to be emphasized that those influences were of different character and size such as human, non-human or divine ones and the compositions of songs or ballads were inspired and conditioned by a lot of circumstances. Metamorphosis is used to express that never- ending process and of course it is transforming. The changes are either positive or negative and consequently people may perceive different good or bad feelings. It is related to the magic world and the unrealistic one and sometimes it is a beautiful feeling when a human being transforms into a rose and showing a form of life continuation after death but in many cases it transforms into a non-desirable object or animal. It is a quick transformation from one thing to another and it may have either positive or negative effects on the audience.

Dairy products are of great socio-economic importance in Romania today. These products have both nutritional and economic importance. The market is the economic category of commodity production in which it expresses the totality of the sale-purchase acts viewed in an organic unit with the relations it generates and in connection with the space in which it takes place. The market originated a long time ago, being related to the moment when, in order to satisfy their existential needs, "discovered" and increasingly "conscious", the people exchanged between them, respectively collectivities, the surpluses held by each individual - individually or collectively. The exchange, set up as a means of realizing its own interests, has seen various forms and has evolved continuously, being still the foundation of all the economies of the world. The market has grown based on the amplification and diversification of human needs. The satisfaction of these needs is given by the close link between producers and consumers.

AbstrakPenelitian ini memiliki tujuan untuk menggambarkan mekanisme sistem bagi hasil yang ada pada sektor pertanian khususnya pada tanaman jeruk siam (Citrus nobilis), dan juga manfaat mekanisme ini bagi masyarakat. Kerjasama dengan menggunakan sistem bagi hasil sudah dilakukan masyarakat daerah pedesaan sejak dulu. Dalam sistem bagi hasil, ada berbagai mekanisme kerjasama antara pemilik lahan, dan penggarap, mekanisme kerjasama itu antara lain Maro, Mertelu, dan Merpat. Penelitian dalam artikel ini merupakan penelitian kualitatif yang dilakukan di Desa Tegalsari Kecamatan Tegalsari Kabupaten Banyuwangi. Teknik observasi serta wawancara digunkan untuk memperoleh data di penelitian ini. Dalam penelitian ini diperoleh hasil yang menyatakan bahwa sistem bagi hasil juga dapat menumbuhkan solidaritas dan integrasi sosial, selain menunjukan peningkatan perekonomian yang menjadi tujuan utama sistem ini. Hal itu dibuktikan dengan adanya rasa peduli, saling percaya, saling membantu antara pemilik lahan dan penggarap jika mengalami kesulitan. Meskipun demikian, peran serta pihak lain seperti pemerintah juga tetap diperlukan agar hubungan baik antara kedua belah pihak dapat tetap terjaga.Kata kunci: Pertanian, Sistem Bagi Hasil, Solidaritas, Integrasi Sosial.AbstractThis study aims to describe the production sharing system in agriculture, especially in the Citrus nobilis plant, and its benefits in community life. The profit-sharing system is a form of cooperation that has existed and been carried out by the village community for a long time. In the profit-sharing system, there are various cooperation mechanisms between landowners and tenants. The cooperation mechanisms include Maro, Mertelu, and Merpat. The research in this article is a qualitative research conducted in Tegalsari Village, Tegalsari District, Banyuwangi Regency. Data collection was carried out by interview and observation techniques. The results of this study indicate that the implementation of the cooperation agreement with the profit-sharing system not only improves the economy, but also fosters solidarity and social integration in society. This is evidenced by a sense of care, mutual trust, and mutual assistance between landowners and tenants when experiencing difficulties. Even so, the participation of other parties such as the government is still needed so that good relations between the two parties can be maintained.Keywords: Agriculture, Profit Sharing, Solidarity, Social Integration.

For a long time now students of early personal names have taken evidence from the many coins whose reverse legends preserve the names of Anglo-Saxon moneyers. Lists have been made which are more or less accurate and comprehensive, often with name forms normalized for convenience. Thus Searle cited, with misgivings, his published sources which included Ruding, Hildebrand and the British Museum Catalogue. The latter in its turn included in its lists many names taken from other collections, often from coins that the compilers had not seen. In fact many of the printed lists of moneyers contain names repeated from earlier lists. To a great extent these derive ultimately from that immense treasury of Viking Age coins, B. E. Hildebrand's systematic arrangement from the Anglo-Saxon content of the Swedish coin hoards. So large were Hildebrand's resources for the reigns of Æthelred and Cnut that his catalogue, published almost a hundred years ago, still comes close to being exhaustive, so that even the recently published Danish national collection adds relatively few coins – or at least legends – that are not registered there, and complements it only in the later reigns when the Scandinavian material becomes more sparse. If Hildebrand's catalogue is to be used as a reference system for the publication of other coins, as is commonly the case particularly in Scandinavia, and if philological use is to be made of Hildebrand's transcriptions, his source material, the coins themselves, must be subject to a new scrutiny.

Right Wing Populism

The article examines and compares main approaches to defining populism in modern Anglo-Saxon and German political science. The author points out some similarities between two schools: increasing interest of research communities in the USA, United Kingdom and Germany in examining right-wing populism due to the electoral success of right-wing populist parties. Furthermore, among the key features of populism, both schools see the allusion to “the will of the people”, as well as juxtaposition of “the people” against “the elite”. The article emphasizes the existing reciprocal influence of the two research traditions. On the other hand, the author outlines certain differences in the two schools’ approach to populism, such as historical dissimilarities in its interpretation (in the USA the concept used to bear a more “neutral” character, while in German political science, due to the Nazi regime carryover, it was regarded mostly negatively for a long time). Also, German academic works on populism have applied rather than theoretical nature and aim at stopping the expansion of the phenomenon.

Purpose – Latin America has been neglected in management and international business (IB) knowledge for a long time. Such a picture reflects the enduring power of the dark side of the geopolitics of knowledge that “international” sub-fields in management knowledge have to tackle as a key condition of possibility for the co-creation of a truly “international” field of “international business”. In this position paper, the authors aim to analyze the extent to which CPoIB has been a key instrument to tackle Anglo-Saxon hegemony in IB knowledge over the last ten years. Design/methodology/approach – The authors follow a decolonizing perspective to analyse the impact of CPoIB for Latin America international business knowledge production. Findings – The paper argues that CPoIB has given voice to authors who are from Latin America and, most important, work in the region. By doing that, CPoIB has triggered the mobilization of mechanisms of recognition and redistribution that are necessary to offset the neo-imperial side of “international business” and management knowledge. The journal has also helped to foster the co-creation of “pluriversal international business”. Originality/value – The paper uses a decolonial perspective from Latin America in order to open new questions and challenges to the field of IB.

Quite a long time ago the Editor received an article on certain liner earthworks in Oxfordshire and Buckinghamshire. The author, Mr M.W. Hughes, developed a reasoned hypothesis to account for the facts, basing his argument on the assumption that the course of the ditches marked on the Ordnance Maps was as correct and complete as possible. It seemed desirable, however, to test this in the field, and the Editor therefore applied to the Archaeology Officer of the Ordnance Survey, with very satisfactory results. The course of each ditch was followed on foot, and its characteristic features recorded on the 6-inch map. The investigation thus initiated was carried on until nearly all the Grim’s ditches of Wessex, and some others as well, had been traced. The information thus obtained proved to be of considerable value ; many miles of new entrenchment were discovered, and these will be incorporated on the new (5th) edition of the one-inch Ordnance Map now being prepared, and will also appear in due course on the Ordnance Map of Anglo-Saxon Britain, now in preparation. It also became evident that the name Grim was attached to at least two quite distinct types of entrenchment. The date of each can, as a rule, only be determined by means of excavation; some of these examined are probably prehistoric ; others fall probably within the extreme limits of the years A.D. 350-700. Those dealt with in the present article are almost certainly either late Roman or Saxon.

Definition Of

Abbot Kinney Boulevard is a central commercial artery that serves as the structure and symbol of neighborhood life in Venice, a coastal community in Los Angeles. In recent years, the street has become an upscale commercial scene made up of independently owned, small–scale shops and restaurants. New residents and merchants work to preserve this new “anticorporate” commercial culture as an authentic version of community life, labeling its distinct identity as “Brand Venice.” Commerce generates community vitality, but this article raises the question, whose definition of community? The construction of a neighborhood brand has consequences. Building on over 3 years of ethnographic and historical research, this article shows how local actors set Abbot Kinney Boulevard on a course of economic transformation by reshaping the meaning of community in such a way that now excludes long–time, lower–income residents who define the new neighborhood identity as an inauthentic version of Venice community life.

Measurement Practices

Although measuring the performance of a firm's R&D activities is a very challenging task, the critical role played by R&D in creating and sustaining a firm's competitive advantage has raised the need to adopt appropriate performance measurement systems (PMSs) in R&D units. Therefore, management scholars have been studying this issue and PMSs have diffused in the R&D departments of most R&D-intensive companies. Nevertheless, empirical investigations into the diffusion and practical use of PMSs in R&D units mainly concern Anglo-Saxon countries, where R&D information disclosure requirements have been in place for a long time. The purpose of this paper is to study the diffusion and practical use of PMSs in the R&D units of firms that are not subject to these types of external institutional influences. With this aim, the results of a survey on the R&D performance measurement practices adopted by a sample of Italian R&D-intensive firms are discussed. They allow to understand why and how R&D-intensive companies design and use a PMS in their R&D units for managerial purposes.

Civil Law System

The development of jurisprudence continues to grow in accordance with the existing laws in the society which it is not the same as the law in legal development. It is not related to the rigid nature of the law which only regulates the general nature and the process of its formation takes a long time. In practice, the development of jurisprudence, as one of the sources of formal law, can be distinguished into two legal systems affecting the legal world. They are namely the Continental European legal system with its Civil Law System which prioritizes "codification" in the field of law and the Anglo Saxon law with its Common Law System, which is famous for the "Precedent" system binding the judges to follow the previous judgment in deciding the same case.
