Angestoßen durch die Gründung des Kaiserreichs spielte sich nach 1871 in Deutschland die heiße Phase der Industrialisierung ab. Innerhalb kurzer Zeit entstanden nicht nur kapitalkräftige neue Unternehmen sondern auch gänzlich neuartige Industriezweige. Die Protagonisten dieser Entwicklung bemühten sich von Anfang an um eine gebührende Repräsentation des neu gewonnenen, machtvollen Status von Industrie, Wissenschaft und Technik in den Gattungen der Bildenden Künste. Zu den weitverbreiteten Repräsentationsformen zählten in dieser Zeit allegorische Darstellungen. Das bedeutete einen weiten Rückgr

Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR), a policy approach in which the responsibility of the waste from a consumer good is extended back up to the producer of the good, is developing and expanding in OECD countries.  Governments find that these schemes can provide a new and flexible approach to reduce the upward trend of waste from consumer products. To address these issues, OECD organised a workshop in December 2002, which was hosted by the Japanese Ministry of Environment, in Tokyo. This book contains selected papers presented at this workshop.

In this volume the focus is on the interrelations of the global and the local in their consequences for work. The process of restructuring of work is analyzed as an ongoing, locally situated process in which actors within work organizations play an important role. Nevertheless, when taking the context of work organizations into account, the increasing importance of the global on the local processes is obvious. Local practices keep their central importance, but the global doesn't function only as a context for the local anymore but forms more and more a practice of itself in which an increasing number of actors play their part.As we can see on the World Wide Web, people and firms are both emitters and receptors and act on the local and global level at the same time. Local diversity in a world with increasing interdependencies is shown in a number of contributions from different parts of the world. These contributions are clustered around two main themes: Labor markets in global and local scenarios - From industry to services; Global industries - Restructuring and local jobs. The many case studies presented shed light to the diversity that occurs in different local situations.
