Based on historical research on assassinations and political terrorism, this dissertation examines how different political systems in the late 19th century dealt with the international threat of anarchist-motivated attacks. A comparative case study between the German Empire and the Third French Republic reveals similarities and differences in the state's defensive reactions. The focus of the work is on the level of the parliamentary legislature, whereby the content of the respective catalog of measures is given an equally broad scope. In this context, the internal decision-making processes within the legislative bodies are examined by means of a Franco-German debate comparison. It analyzes how the governments' political “anti-terror course” was discussed in the democratically legitimized parliamentary chambers - in particular, which positions the members of parliament took on individual issues, how they justified them and which legislative decisions followed.

Farbloses Fensterglas : Rohstoffe und Herstellungstechniken, Entwicklungsgeschichte und denkmalpflegerische Relevanz von Theophilus bis zur Einführung von Floatglas / Alexandra Schm?lder

Im Gegensatz zu Fensterrahmen, die in der Denkmalpflege l?ngst als essentielle Bestandteile eines Baudenkmals anerkannt sind und entsprechend gewürdigt werden, findet farbloses Fensterglas in Profanbauten bislang wenig Beachtung und erf?hrt dementsprechend kaum Wertsch?tzung. Damit fehlt der praktischen Denkmalpflege eine wichtige Grundlage für die Bewertung historischer Geb?ude.
Die Arbeit gibt einen umfangreichen Einblick in die Entwicklung und Geschichte von ungef?rbtem Fensterglas und in die verschiedenen Herstellungstechniken, der so bislang einzigartig ist. Hinzu kommen eine denkmalpflegerische Würdigung und unterschiedliche Schemata, um Fensterglas zeitlich einordnen und einem Herstellungsverfahren zuordnen zu k?nnen. Das Thema ist sowohl für das Fachgebiet der Kunstgeschichte als auch für die Denkmalwissenschaften von Interesse. Die Spannbreite reicht vom Mittelalter bis zum 20. Jahrhundert und umfasst Butzenscheiben und Tellerscheiben sowie Mondglas, Zylinderglas und auch Ziehglas. Nebenbei werden weitverbreitete Missverst?ndnisse aufgekl?rt und Begrifflichkeiten gesch?rft.

Designing enterprise software systems requires careful selection of architectural styles and patterns that align with both technical and organizational requirements. This research proposes a selection framework that integrates these criteria, providing structured guidance for both pattern selection and the design process.
Effective architectural style selection necessitates a nuanced evaluation of organizational compatibility, rooted in a comprehensive understanding of relevant quality criteria. Assessing the organizational fit of design approaches within a selected architectural style ensures alignment with the organization’s specific preconditions and objectives. Throughout this process, quantifying the fulfillment of quality criteria establishes a consistent, quality-centered approach from initial selection to implementation.
This study examines the strategic considerations involved in adopting complex architectural patterns within software engineering, with a particular focus on the challenges of contemporary architecture design. It identifies critical decision-making factors and quality attributes that guide architectural choices, synthesizing these insights into a framework that inform architectural choices and support effective design decisions.
A taxonomy of architectural design strategies, emphasizing microservices, is introduced. This taxonomy systematically assesses microservice design approaches, detailing each step from data collection to service identification. It also highlights suitable quality metrics to embed quality criteria into the design process, ensuring alignment with the foundational principles of pattern selection.
Additionally, this research presents the Microservice Architecture Design Framework, a structured evaluation tool to guide organizations in selecting optimal design approaches. By applying this framework, the research provides insights into archetypal patterns within microservice architecture design and establishes best practices.
In presenting a structured, quality-centric approach to pattern selection, architectural design and service identification, this work offers a practical guide for software architects, enabling informed decision-making that aligns with technical specifications and strategic business objectives. As a consultative resource, this research offers actionable guidelines for practitioners, bridging the gap between theoretical foundations and practical applications in complex enterprise environments.

Since many years, Professor Ezra Chitando is an excellent scholar and dedicated activist, whose personal experiences, cultural and religious influences, and commitment to justice and partnership, shape his work on religion, gender, and African masculinities. Chitando has made meaningful contributions to social justice and academic scholarship in various disciplines. His scholarship transcends the confines of academia, bringing about positive change and lasting impact in Church and society. In this Festschrift, more than forty authors (family members, friends, and colleagues) from Zimbabwe, Zambia, South Africa, Malawi, Germany, and Botswana honour Chitando’s academic and societal achievements, and carry on his struggle for redemptive gender roles and justice for all.
