Dieser inoffizielle Adventskalender für Fans von Whitesnake nimmt dich mit auf eine spannende Reise durch die bewegte Karriere einer der legendärsten Rockbands aller Zeiten – und ihres charismatischen Frontmanns. Von den ersten musikalischen Gehversuchen in Nordengland über den plötzlichen Einstieg bei Deep Purple bis hin zum internationalen Durchbruch mit Whitesnake: Hier werden 24 Tage lang Geschichten erzählt, die Rockgeschichte geschrieben haben. Erfahre, wie Coverdale nach dem Ende von Deep Purple nicht aufgab, sondern mit der Snakebite-EP und dem Album Trouble neue Wege einschlug. Erlebe, wie Jon Lord und Cozy Powell das Line-up prägten, wie der erste Top-Ten-Erfolg in Großbritannien gelang und wie Whitesnake mit Live... in the Heart of the City die Fans begeisterte.

Lerne die Schlüsselfiguren wie John Sykes und Adrian Vandenberg kennen, verfolge die Zusammenarbeit mit Jimmy Page und das große Comeback zum 25-jährigen Jubiläum.

Deutsche Bildungsrenditen im internationalen Vergleich

Deutsche Bildungsrenditen im internationalen Vergleich
Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2005 im Fachbereich Soziologie - Wissen und Information, Note: 1,7, Rheinisch-Westfälische Technische Hochschule Aachen (Institut für Soziologie), Veranstaltung: Bildungssoziologie, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Seit den Ergebnissen „der PISA-Studie der OECD“ (Ammermüller & Dohmen 2004: 7) wird die Qualität von Bildung erneut kritisch betrachtet. Neben der qualitativen Sichtweise von Bildung wird auch die „ökonomische Bedeutung von Bildung“ (Ammermüller & Dohmen 2004: 7) immer stärker diskutiert. Ausgangspunkt dieser Diskussion ist die Grundthese der Humankapitaltheorie, wonach sich die Produktivität eines Arbeiters dann erhöht, wenn Investitionen in das Humankapital z.B. durch Ausbildung vorgenommen werden (vgl. Sesselmeier & Blauermel 1998: 66). Eine höhere Produktivität führt im Regelfall zu steigendem Einkommen, was sowohl „für die Person“ (Ammermüller & Dohmen 2004: 8) selbst, aber auch für die gesamte „Gesellschaft“ (Ammermüller & Dohmen 2004: 9) von Vorteil ist. Mit dem Konzept der Bildungsrenditen wurde nun ein Konzept geschaffen, mit dem der ökonomische Wert von Bildung geschätzt werden kann. Durch diese Schätzungen wird ein direkter Vergleich von Investitionen und Erträgen ermöglicht. Aus diesem Vergleich kann dann eine Entscheidung resultieren, ob sich eine weitere Schulausbildung für einen Akteur lohnt oder ob ein Eintritt in die berufliche Ausbildung sinnvoller ist. Eine zweite Möglichkeit zur Nutzung dieser Schätzung reicht bis hin zu einem internationalen Vergleich der Bildungserträge. Durch die Berechnung von Bildungsrenditen in verschiedenen Ländern kann direkt verglichen werden, in welchem Land höhere Erträge und in welchem Land geringere Erträge bei gleicher Schulbildung zu erwarten sind. Besonders im Hinblick auf unsere „sich globalisierenden Welt“ (Ammermüller & Dohmen 2004: 7) ist dies entscheidend wichtig, um dem internationalen Wettbewerb standzuhalten. Ziel dieser Arbeit ist es, die Berechnung der Bildungsrenditen zu erläutern, kurz auf internationale Bildungserträge einzugehen um dann schließlich die deutschen Bildungserträgen detaillierter zu betrachten. Im folgenden zweiten Kapitel dieser Arbeit wird zunächst eine Methode zur Schätzung von Bildungsrenditen dargestellt. Diese wurde von Becker (1964) und Mincer (1974) auf Grundlage der Humankapitaltheorie entwickelt. Im dritten Kapitel wird dann mithilfe einer Studie von Lorenz und Wagner (1993) zur Bildungsökonomie auf internationale Bildungserträge eingegangen. Im vierten Kapitel werden deutsche Bildungserträge dargestellt, die durch eine Analyse von Daten der allgemeinen Bevölkerungsumfrage (ALLBUS) berechnet und diskutiert werden.
