Der öffentliche Meinungsstreit, ob der Islam inzwischen zu Deutschland gehört oder nicht, ist trotz präsidialer Stellungnahmen nicht abschließend entschieden. Kaum bewegen sich Positionen aufeinander ...zu, reißen aktuelle politische Ereignisse – in Deutschland wie weltweit – Gräben auf, die gerade erst zugeschüttet schienen. Dabei sind die gesellschaftlichen Erwartungen hoch: Nicht weniger als kulturelle Synthesen werden als Chance für Fremdverstehen und das "Zugehörigkeitsprojekt Deutschland" eingefordert. Durch den inflationären Gebrauch wechselseitiger Schuldzuweisungen geraten jedoch die Grundlagen für einvernehmliches Zusammenleben leicht aus dem Blick, und dies schadet der Bildung von sozialen Identitäten von Nichtmuslimen wie Muslimen in Deutschland. Die Autorinnen und Autoren dieses Sammelbandes leisten einen wichtigen Beitrag, die Diskussion zu versachlichen, indem sie aus unterschiedlichen Perspektiven gesellschaftlich bedeutsame Fragen beantworten und Denkanstöße geben. Dabei gehen sie nicht von einer einheitlichen integrationspolitischen Theoriebildung für den Islam oder die Muslime in Deutschland aus. Vielmehr argumentieren sie gleichermaßen wissenschaftsorientiert wie praxiserfahren aus ihrer Arbeit mit dem Thema "Islam" in der Kinder- und Jugendhilfe, an Universitäten, Akademien, Medien und Sozialwissenschaftlichen Instituten, für die Politik sowie für Religionsgemeinschaften. Mit ihren Fakten und Analysen wenden sie sich ebenso an die Öffentlichkeit wie die Wissenschaft und versachlichen die emotional aufgeladene Diskussion um die Rolle des Islam in Deutschland.
The Meyer Struckmann Prize for Research in the Humanities and Social Sciences, awarded in 2016 for East Asian Studies, was awarded to Professor Dr Florian Coulmas. Florian Coulmas is Senior Professor ...of Language and Culture of Modern Japan at the Institute of East Asian Studies at the University of Duisburg-Essen. With Coulmas, the jury is honouring an academic who, as Director of the German Institute for Japanese Studies in Tokyo, has made a groundbreaking contribution to international research on demographic change in a non-Western industrial nation. According to the jury's assessment, the linguist, sociologist and Japanologist has an international reputation both through his professional expertise in the field of social science research on Japan and as a sociolinguist. In the German-speaking world, Coulmas has also made a name for himself as a popular non-fiction author on current Japanese topics.
The State of Arkansas, with a slew of volunteers and city employees, launched Operation KARE (Katrina Assistance and Relief Effort) at the Department of Information Systems (DIS) in order to assist ...the evacuees en route. To manage the monumental KARE effort on such short notice, the department needed a technology that was both familiar to workers yet flexible enough to be molded for special needs. It turned to FrontRange(TM) HEAT(R) Service & Support, its existing IT Service Management application, and used it in an innovative way: to track people and their needs instead of the traditional IT problems. With HEAT, volunteers created profiles of evacuees and their needs based on incoming calls. Depending on the type of call, volunteer agents tapped into the HEAT knowledge base to provide answers, or routed calls to subject matter experts in specific state departments. DIS provides information technology solutions for the State of Arkansas, from telephony and data networking to technical consulting to the public entities that serve citizens. About 250 DIS professionals support 50,000 state employees -- with Arkansas state government being the state's largest employer -- as well as extending technology support to commissions, city and county offices, public schools and higher education throughout Arkansas.
To address the issue, CCLA enlisted the help of FrontRange Solutions partner First Direct Corp. (1stdirect.com) to implement FrontRange(TM) GoldMine and iGoldMine for its entire North American sales ...team. In choosing GoldMine, CCLA Assistant Vice President of North America Sales Tim Marsh brought past experience using a range of other CRM solutions. "I've used them all," Marsh said. "GoldMine is very powerful and very easy for the salesperson to use." With GoldMine, users can log every visit, phone call and client contact for future reference. GoldMine collects this data through a series of questions ensuring the sales force keeps comprehensive and standardized customer records for data such as call types, import/export, type of cargo and more. Because sales reps continuously update GoldMine after each call or visit, customer files remain current. At the end of the week, an automated GoldMine process generates team-wide sales reports showing a summarized breakdown of activities, time spent and results by individual, district, region and nation. Managers can examine specific fields to see lost business, opportunities to add more cargo to light routes, or understand the pipeline, allowing them to make strategic decisions. Next, CCLA and First Direct Corp. will configure GoldMine to track cargo within COSCO's fleet of ships throughout the world in real time. Additionally, CCLA will soon pull U.S. Customs information, which shows competitors' cargo, into its GoldMine system to better understand the competition. Marsh said CCLA will eventually use GoldMine to forecast its shipments, as well as launch e-mail and other marketing campaigns in the future. According to Marsh, the company's ultimate plan is to expand GoldMine worldwide and refine its global processes further with help from 1stdirect.com.

The BDS application links e-mail, calendaring and contact records between the two systems, reducing double entry and disparate, inconsistent data for users. Simple Technologies also simplified data management by migrating data from 12 disparate contact databases to a single Microsoft SQL database, and then cleaned and categorized the data so that teams could market specifically to each target group. Finally, data was synchronized between multiple offices to enable daily updates.
