The German Social Democratic Party 1875-1933 From Ghetto to Government

The German Social Democratic Party 1875-1933 From Ghetto to Government

Originally published in 1981 this book covers the development of the Social Democratic Party (SPD) from its inception to the end of the Weimar republic. Within a historical framework it analyses the role and operation of the SPD in the changing social and political climate of Germany and describes the party’s internal struggles throughout the period. The party continually debated its aims and the means to achieve them. Conducted by people such as Kautsky Bernsteina dn Rosa Luxemburg with close links to Marx Engels and other leaders of the international socialist movement this debate within the party was one of the most fundamental socialist controversies whose relevance remains today. | The German Social Democratic Party 1875-1933 From Ghetto to Government

Digital Negatives with QuadToneRIP Demystifying QTR for Photographers and Printmakers

Digital Negatives with QuadToneRIP Demystifying QTR for Photographers and Printmakers

Digital Negatives with QuadToneRIP is a text that fully explores how the QuadToneRIP printer driver can be used to make expert digital negatives. The book takes a comprehensive Òunder-the-hoodÓ look at how Roy Harrington’s QTR printer driver can be adapted for use by artists in several different creative practice areas. The text is written from the Mac/Photoshop point of view. The book is divided into three parts. Part One is a step-by-step how-to section that will appeal to both beginning and more advanced practitioners. Part One includes quickstart guides­ or summary sheets for beginning students who want to jump into using QTR before understanding all of its functional components. Part Two addresses dimroom darkroom and printmaking practices walking the reader through brief workflows from negative to print for lithium palladium gum bichromate cyanotype salted paper kallitype silver gelatin and polymer photogravure with a sample profile for each. It also includes an introduction to a new software iteration of QTR: QuickCurve-DN (QCDN). Part Three is devoted to contemporary practitioners who explain how they use QTR in their creative practice. The book includes: A list of supplies and software needed A summary QTR glossary with a simple explanation of how each function works A sample walk-through to create a QTR profile from start to finish How to linearize profiles with simple to more exacting tools A visual guide to modifying functions Quickstart guides for many of the workflows Instructions for crafting monochrome duotone tricolor and quadcolor negatives Instructions for using QTR to print silver gelatin in the darkroom Instructions for using QTR to print alternative processes in the dimroom Instructions for using QTR to print polymer photogravure in the printmaking room Introductory chapter to QuickCurve-DN software Troubleshooting common QTR problems Generic starter profiles for processes discussed Contemporary artists: their work and QTR process. Learning how to craft expert digital negatives can be a bit overwhelming at the outset. Digital Negatives with QuadToneRIP makes the process as user-friendly as possible. Like other books in the series Digital Negatives with QuadToneRIP is thoroughly comprehensive accessible to different levels of learner and illustrative of the contemporary arts. | Digital Negatives with QuadToneRIP Demystifying QTR for Photographers and Printmakers

Modern Trends in Research on Steel Aluminium and Composite Structures includes papers presented at the 14th International Conference on Metal Structures 2021 (ICMS 2021 Poznań Poland 16-18 June 2021). The 14th ICMS summarised a few years’ theoretical numerical and experimental research on steel aluminium and composite structures and presented new concepts. This book contains six plenary lectures and all the individual papers presented during the Conference. Seven plenary lectures were presented at the Conference including Research developments on glass structures under extreme loads Parhp3D – The parallel MPI/openMPI implementation of the 3D hp-adaptive FE code Design of beam-to-column steel-concrete composite joints: from Eurocodes and beyond Stainless steel structures – research codification and practice Testing modelling and design of bolted joints – effect of size structural properties integrity and robustness Design of hybrid beam-to-column joints between RHS tubular columns and I-section beams and Selected aspects of designing the cold-formed steel structures. The individual contributions delivered by authors covered a wide variety of topics: – Advanced analysis and direct methods of design – Cold-formed elements and structures – Composite structures – Engineering structures – Joints and connections – Structural stability and integrity – Structural steel metallurgy durability and behaviour in fire. Modern Trends in Research on Steel Aluminium and Composite Structures is a useful reference source for academic researchers graduate students as well as designers and fabricators. | Modern Trends in Research on Steel Aluminium and Composite Structures PROCEEDINGS OF THE XIV INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON METAL STRUCTURES (

Innovative Solutions What Designers Need to Know for Today's Emerging Markets

Innovative Solutions What Designers Need to Know for Today's Emerging Markets

Expanding into emerging markets brings with it a specific set of challenges for designing products and services. Not only do cultural differences play a role in what how and why customers behave the way they do but existing technologies distribution channels and the wants and needs of consumers become additional challenges when establishing market shares in the developing world. Innovative Solutions: What Designers Need to Know for Today's Emerging Markets describes the landscape of these new markets and discusses research and design methodologies tailored to them. Local designers and researchers offer insight directly from the depths of India China and other parts of the world. They take an in-depth look at user research methods in underserved communities new tools such as ecosystems mapping to define the elements impacting innovation and design decisions and methodologies to develop solution spaces based on the output from user research studies. The book then presents real-life examples through case studies and interviews. The case studies draw not only from the authors’ work with clients such as HP Labs Nokia Haier Philips Intel and A Piece of Pie but also from user experience and the results of innovation research across the globe. The interviews include conversations with leaders in innovation such as Roopa Purushothaman Tapan Parikh Ram Sehgal Steve Portigal Dmitry Volkov and Darelle van Greunen. A fascinating perspective of the users and ecosystem in emerging nations the book provides deeper insights on how a user-centered innovation and design approach has been applied in practical settings. Examining the challenges of innovating and designing for emerging markets it incorporates research and practice to explore new ways of uncovering the riches and opportunities in innovation and design for emerging markets. | Innovative Solutions What Designers Need to Know for Today's Emerging Markets
