        Der Tag des Königs

        by Abdellah Taïa, Andréas Riehle

        An der Straße von Rabat nach Salé wartet eine Menschenmenge auf die Ankunft Hassans II., des Königs von Marokko. Mitten darin zwei Jungen.Khalid stammt aus einem herrschaftlichen Haus im reichsten Viertel der Stadt, Omar aus der armen Vorstadt. Dennoch sind sie unzertrennlich. Omar liebt Khalid, den feingliedrigen Jungen mit der zarten Haut und den überspannten Ideen. Und Khalid Omar, der mit seinen vierzehn Jahren schon die Verantwortung für seinen Vater trägt. Der ist wie ein kleines Kind, seit Omars Mutter die Familie verlassen hat. Doch unter dieser Beziehung der beiden ungleichen Jungen lauern Abgründe. Und jetzt ist überdies Khalid ausgewählt, als reichster und bester Schüler der Klasse dem König die Hand zu küssen. Er hat Omar nichts davon gesagt. Dieser Verrat läßt die Kluft zwischen beiden aufbrechen – und verlangt ein Opfer. Lakonisch, dramatisch, mit kunstvoller Theatralik erzählt der marokkanische Autor Abdellah Taïa, wie Liebe umschlägt in Gewalt unter einem von sozialer Ungleichheit und Tabus geprägten despotischen Regime.

        Pharmacy Assessment

        Sale and purchase of pharmacies

        by Dipl.-Kfm. Axel Witte and Dipl.-Bw. Doris zur Mühlen

        To avoid unpleasant surprises, it is worth taking a closer look when buying or selling a pharmacy. Whether buyer or seller: both parties ask themselves the question of the market value of an object. This is determined by a multitude of factors. This book shows how both parties arrive at a realistic assessment. The revised and updated edition of the classic work guides you through the process of assessing a pharmacy’s value. Various examples help to assess the facts and support the understanding of relevant factors during the sale or purchasing process, which is usually carried out with the help of an advisor experienced in the field.

        The politics of alcohol

        A history of the drink question in England

        by James Nicholls

        Questions about drink - how it is used, how it should be regulated and the social risks it presents - have been a source of sustained and heated dispute in recent years. In The politics of alcohol, Nicholls puts these concerns in historical context by providing a detailed and extensive survey of public debates on alcohol from the introduction of licensing in the mid-sixteenth century through to recent controversies over 24-hour licensing, binge drinking and the cheap sale of alcohol in supermarkets. In doing so, he shows that concerns over drinking have always been tied to broader questions about national identity, individual freedom and the relationship between government and the market. He argues that in order to properly understand the cultural status of alcohol we need to consider what attitudes to drinking tell us about the principles that underpin our modern, liberal society. The politics of alcohol presents a wide-ranging, accessible and critically illuminating guide to the social, political and cultural history of alcohol in England. Covering areas including law, public policy, medical thought, media representations and political philosophy, it will provide essential reading for anyone interested in either the history of alcohol consumption, alcohol policy or the complex social questions posed by drinking today.
