Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2007 im Fachbereich Geowissenschaften / Geographie - Bevouml;lkerungsgeographie; Stadt- u. Raumplanung; Note: 1;0; Technische Universitauml;t Chemnitz; Veranstaltung: Allgemeine Sozial- und Wirtschaftsgeographie; 22 Quellen im Literaturverzeichnis; Sprache: Deutsch; Abstract: Immer hauml;ufiger war in den letzten Jahren von dem Phauml;nomen des demographischen Wandels die Rede. Heute ist der Begriff aus den Medien nicht mehr wegzudenken. Wauml;hrend die Weltbevouml;lkerung auf der einen Seite weiter anwauml;chst; sinken auf der anderen Seite in fast allen modernen Industriestaaten die Einwohnerzahlen. Auch in Deutschland werden wir durch niedrige Geburtenraten und einer steigenden Lebenserwartung immer auml;lter und weniger. Der demographische Wandel hat uns also voll im Griff. Das Problem des Wandels liegt dabei vor allem in den regionalen Auswirkungen. Wauml;hrend einerseits vor allem Regionen in Bayern und Baden Wuuml;rttemberg wirtschaftlich von Zuwanderung profitieren; haben andererseits vorwiegend die neuen Bundeslauml;nder mit den Auswirkungen des Bevouml;lkerungsruuml;ckgangs zu kauml;mpfen.Diese Arbeit wird sich mit dem vieldiskutiertem Thema des demographischen Wandels auseinandersetzen. Es soll verdeutlicht werden; was genau der demographische Wandel ist; welche Ursachen er hat und auch; welche Folgen Alterung und Schrumpfung nach sich ziehen; wobei hier der Fokus vor allem auf rauml;umliche Entwicklungsperspektiven gerichtet ist. Um in die Thematik einzufuuml;hren wird zunauml;chst die Bevouml;lkerungsgeographie im Allgemeinen betrachtet und der demographische Wandel in deren Kontext eingeordnet. Anschlieszlig;end erfolgt die Erlauml;uterung des Sachverhalts des demographischen Wandels an Sich; um anschlieszlig;end die Lage in Deutschland zu beschreiben und zu analysieren. Schlussendlich werden noch die Auswirkungen des demographischen Wandels untersucht; wobei explizit auf die rauml;umlichen Konsequenzen der Schrumpfung eingegangen wird.

The book takes the reader back in time through the life of Carol Miller to give us a sense of who the author was and what her life was all about. I especially liked how her family was important to Carol and her positive relationship with her Dad. I also appreciated Carol Miller painting a warm look at a New York that has passed by but it was still interesting to read about. Of course. there are the many tales of numerous rock personalities like Steven Tyler of Aerosmith but. to me. the rich detail of Carols childhood that got my attention.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.

Lacking a direction. it goes nowhereBy JudithI should start off by saying I didnt know who Carol Miller was when I read the blurb about this book. I like rock roll biographies. so I decided to try it. I was looking for insider insights into music personalities. By the time I finished the Kindle sample. I realized this was not that kind of book. but I was interested enough in this womans life story to go ahead and buy the e-book. The book turned out to be a quick read. semi-enjoyable. but nothing special. In thinking about it for this review. I realized the book goes in too many directions. and thus doesnt complete any of the journeys.As an insiders view of rock music. it doesnt offer anything new. Paul McCartney was a nice guy who really loved Linda. Springsteen stays close to his Jersey roots. Steve Tyler is childlike and crazy. Nothing new there. I wasnt looking for gossip and dirt. but I was hoping to see some personalities from a different perspective. It didnt happen.Her discussion of her radio career was mostly about getting jobs. trying to keep them. getting fired after stations changed their format. I worked at W---. then they changed their format. I got fired. so I got a job at W---. etc. etc. I dont feel I know much more about the inner workings of radio after reading this book.Ms. Miller grew up in a traditional New York. Jewish family. She sprinkles the book with lots of Yiddish words and talks about her culture. She had difficult relationships with her parents. especially with her father who was often verbally abusive. There could have been a book in that. but this angle is not fully explored. Ditto. her marriage to MTV VJ Mark Goodman. She takes some understandable potshots at him for his adultery. but mostly there is not a whole lot about the good times or the bad times of that marriage. and even less about her second marriage. I respect that people want to maintain their privacy. but in reading the book I wondered about the good times. I wondered how her fellow DJs felt about her being married to a VJ. It just seemed like more could have been said without getting too personal.Another element of the book was her struggle with cancer that involved many surgeries and treatments. This could have been a whole book. but she doesnt go into it deeply. which was a wise choice. It wasnt meant to be a book centered on surviving cancer.The one aspect of the book that I found most interesting was her thoughts on music. She had intriguing thoughts about music snobs who take themselves and their musical tastes too seriously. She suggests that there is nothing wrong with enjoying a silly. fun song. Unfortunately. these thoughts only take up a page or two. More thoughts on music would have improved the book.I cant really recommend this book. except for readers who are fans of her radio work who want to know more about her.
