Modulbeschreibung:

Im Modul Rechnungslegung nach HGB werden – anknüpfend an die Grundlagen der Buchführung – nun weiterführende Kenntnisse über Adressaten, Ziele und Inhalte der Finanzberichterstattung nach HGB vermittelt, wofür neben allgemeinen handelsrechtlichen Vorschriften ergänzend auch die Vorschriften für Kapitalgesellschaften im Detail behandelt werden. Für ein fundiertes normatives Verständnis der Rechnungslegung werden vor allem die Rechnungslegungszwecke, die Grundsätze ordnungsmäßiger Buchführung und die verschiedenen Publizitätsvorschriften näher betrachtet. Der Schwerpunkt der Veranstaltung liegt insbesondere auf den allgemeinen und speziellen Ansatz- und Bewertungsregeln: Vorschriften für die einzelnen Abschlussposten und auch Sonderthemen der Bilanzierung werden schrittweise erarbeitet, und die Studierenden lernen, selbstständig Bilanzierungslösungen zu hinterfragen und zu interpretieren – denn nur, wer die Technik der Buchführung und die gesetzlichen Regelungen zur Rechnungslegung kennt, kann betriebliche Zusammenhänge aus dem Zahlenwerk eines Jahresabschlusses herauslesen und ist in der Lage, sinnvolle wirtschaftliche Entscheidungen zu treffen.

Bitte beachten Sie die Hinweise der Professur zu den zugelassenen Hilfsmitteln in Klausuren.

• Determinanten wirtschaftlicher Entwicklung
• Charakteristik und Funktionsweise der Marktwirtschaft und Zentralplanwirtschaft

The central question of the seminar is: Who owns the city? The seminar wants to deal with property relations of housing in the city (and in the countryside) and to explore the social, economic, political as well as ecological conditions of appropriate housing. After a brief introduction to classical property texts (by Locke, Marx, etc.), more recent texts on housing will be discussed along the following lines: Housing and the role of economics, financial markets and housing; the human right to housing; alternative housing.
There will also be a presentation by architects Antje Buchholz and Jürgen Patzak-Poor (of BARarchitekten) on housing projects in Berlin. And we will stream and discuss with you an interesting film: Push. For the basic right to housing.

The lecture will be available online and is recorded a few weeks before the semester begins. It will not be held in classroom. In a first section, the lecture deals with basic concepts (e.g., global governance, theories of international relations, liberal world order) and the impacts of populism, nationalism, and the regression of democracy on global governance - or on the system of the United Nations. On the one hand, students from different study programs will be provided with basic information necessary to understand arguments made about the impact of declining liberal world order on global governance. On the other hand, the lecture will follow a problem-oriented approach and analyze or explore these issues in depth. It will analyse developments in different issue areas (e.g., environment/climate change, development, world trade, disarmament, management of violent conflict and peace-keeping, human rights, food etc.). Lectures will be held in English language and be available in Illias (via Studip). Each lecture includes puzzles with questions to students (for self-study or discussion with students in Studip) or small video-clips about specific themes related to an issue area.

Culture is based on practices and symbolizations. As much as individuals within the environment of culture are “doing culture”, e.g. they are actively facilitating the cultural conditions they live in, they are also determined and targeted by existing cultural framings and discourses. Of greater importance here is the emergence of cultural images which communicate social meaning and function as shared resources to produce a common lifeworld and the social bond. From the 20th century onwards, within the increasingly mediatized modern societies, it has subsequently been representations of popular culture that provide the decisive cultural images which define the cultural self-understanding of the contemporary and, therefore, the condition of a cultural reality shared by all members of the society. Due to the globalizing conditions of media society and popular culture, these cultural images of the contemporary do on the one hand unfold on global scale. Due to fairy tales, Disney, and Animee, people today are vastly referring to the same set of cultural images. Then again, these images gain different meanings in different regions, and there are also always particular cultural images on regional and local level. In our class we will reflect on the emergence, functionality and discourse practices of (global) cultural images. We will therefore refer to theory as much as we will focus on specific examples.

This course explores the lived experiences of individuals in Eastern Bloc countries during the Cold War era, with a primary focus on the citizens of the Soviet Union. It delves into the social, cultural, and economic aspects of life under socialist regimes, examining how ideology and collective economy shaped daily routines, work, leisure, and family life. Students will work with a variety of sources, including newspapers, personal narratives like diaries and memoirs, films, literature and objects of material life, to gain insights into the challenges and adaptations of ordinary people.
Key topics include material wealth, consumer culture, gender roles, housing, and the impact of political events on everyday activities. The course also addresses the role of propaganda, the education system, and the influence of Western culture. By comparing different primary sources from different periods, students will explore the diversity of experiences within the socialist bloc and the varying degrees of state control and personal freedom.
The course provides a nuanced understanding of the complexities and contradictions of socialist life, highlighting both the hardships and moments of resilience and creativity. Students will engage both with English academic texts and texts of primary sources in Russian, which they will learn to read and analyze by using instruments of machine translation. Through class discussions, readings, and work with multimedia platforms available online, students will develop a comprehensive understanding of everyday life under socialism.
This is an online-course, which takes place exclusively digitally via BigBlueButton software.

The course is devoted to the so-called Crusader Art in the Eastern Mediterranean. Since the First Crusade called for by Pope Urban II in 1095, relations between Central Europe and the Eastern Mediterranean intensified, but became violent and colonialist. Primarily with the aim of regaining the holy sites of Christianity after the Islamic conquest, but also to acquire land and wealth, the Crusades became a symbol of Christian aggression. After Jerusalem was conquered in 1099, numerous other cities on the Mediterranean coasts were taken over. The pattern of political power changed considerably: Crusader states were established in Greece and the islands of Crete, Rhodes, Cyprus etc., and even the capital of the Byzantine Empire, Constantinople, fell to the Crusaders in 1204, who established a so-called Latin Empire (1204-1261). This period also saw the emergence of the orders of knights (Knights of Malta, Knights of St. John), around which numerous legends have grown, woven into modern fiction (e.g., the Knights Templar). The same goes for famous persons of the Crusades, such as Richard the Lionhart and Sultan Saladin.
Under Latin rulers, nobility and bishops, Western-influenced art was created, including Gothic cathedrals and conversions of older churches (e.g. the Church of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem), sculptures, fortresses and mobile art, such as manuscripts, goldsmiths' works, etc. The art of the Crusader period often takes inspiration from Islamic and Christian aesthetics in a complex entanglement and points to the different religious affiliations of the artists, craftsmen and patrons, who also had works of art made especially for export to their homeland. The term Crusader Art is debated, especially with regard to the clearly European colonialist narrative that it expresses, which will be discussed in the course.
The course will take place online via Zoom and will have the character of a lecture series, but will also include phases of active student teamwork, as well as text and source readings.

The study of the history of the English language offers highly relevant insights into how the language has changed over the course of the centuries and into how the English language is structured and functions all around the world today. Therefore, we will pay particular attention to the different periods in the history of the English language, i.e. Old English, Middle English, Early Modern English, Late Modern English and Present-day English, in order to follow the structural changes on the levels of phonology, lexis, syntax and semantics that have led to the English language as we use it today.

Exam / Modulabschlussprüfung (MAP): To be announced at the beginning of the semester

This course aims at familiarizing students with approaches to the study of human language in general and to the study of the English language in particular. Attention will be paid to important concepts and terminology from the core areas of theoretical linguistics (phonetics, phonology, morphology, syntax, semantics, and pragmatics) and to their relevance to the fields of applied linguistics, such as language acquisition, sociolinguistics and cognitive linguistics.

Paul Celan is one of the most prominent German poets of the second half of the 20th century. The seminar will use a hermeneutic "close reading" to Celan's fascinating and formally challenging writing and will additionally apply quantitative methods of digital "distant reading" to interprete Celan's poetry. Students will get trained in a mixed-method approach in the intersectional domain of linguistics and literary critics as one of the major approaches to culture and discourse related text analyses. The seminar will be held online in English language; students of JLU can take the course as part of the module "text and pragmatics".

SHE richtet sich an die Frau im Sport. Um die gesamte Leistungsfähigkeit der Physiologie der Frau ausschöpfen zu können, hat die Frau die einzigartige Chance, ihren Zyklus gezielt einzusetzen und ihn als ihre Stärke zu nutzen. Voraussetzung ist ein gesunder weiblicher Körper, gepaart mit einem hohen Maß an Selbstwahrnehmung.

Die Frau im Training ist ein Bereich, der SportwissenschaftlerInnen weltweit beschäftigt. Trotz einer kontroversen Datenlage sind sich WissenschaftlerInnen einig, dass die Frau ein anderes und individuelleres Training benötigt als der Mann.
Die langfristige und nachhaltige Leistungsentwicklung ist nur gegeben, wenn das Fundament auf Gesundheit beruht. Auf Grund dessen ist es uns eine Herzensangelegenheit, im Rahmen der Veranstaltungsreihe auf die unterschiedlichen Bedürfnisse von Frauen im Sport einzugehen und dabei die Genderkompetenz der Teilnehmenden zu stärken.

Durch deine Teilnahme begibst du dich in ein Themenfeld mit höchster Relevanz und erlangst Kompetenzen, um individuell und empathisch mit Frauen im Sport zu arbeiten. Die Inhalte werden in einem methodischen Mix aus Vorträgen, Workshops und praktischen Impulsen vermittelt.

The lecture addresses advanced and current topics in exercise physiology, resulting in varying content. However, specific aspects of carbohydrate, protein and fat metabolism, differentiated aspects of fatigue and recovery, the interaction of different organ systems in sports such as exercise and brain as well as exercise and microbiota are regularly addressed. In individual sessions there will be interactive discourses in special topics of physiology.
