Die Arbeit befasst sich mit dem praxisrelevanten Thema der Ablösung von arbeitgeberfinanzierten Versorgungszusagen. Ähnlich wie die Anpassungen von staatlichen Rentensystemen stellen Veränderungen von betrieblichen Rentensystemen für Arbeitgeber eine enorme Herausforderung dar. Die Arbeit analysiert und systematisiert die formellen sowie die materiellen Voraussetzungen zur Anpassung von Versorgungszusagen aus Gesetz und Rechtsprechung. Zusammenfassend findet ein Ebenenvergleich zwischen den verschiedenen Rechtsgrundlagen und den Anforderungen der Rechtsprechung zur jeweiligen Ablösung. Hierauf aufbauend und mit einem Seitenblick nach Österreich zeigt die Arbeit auf, wie Arbeitgeber den durch den gesetzlichen Rahmen und die Rechtsprechung bestimmten Gestaltungsspielraum für eine flexible Ausgestaltung von Versorgungszusagen nutzen können und welche konkreten Flexibilisierungsinstrumente hierfür zur Verfügung stehen.

In the early Victorian age, the streets of East London were home to migrants from different regions and religions. In the midst of this area lay the famous Rag Fair street market, sustained by trade routes stretching across the globe. The market's history demonstrates that it was not only a place of economic exchange, but also an intercultural contact zone where Jewish and Irish migrants mingled, entered client relationships and forged political alliances. Reconstructing the varied (partly multiethnic) group-building processes operating in the market, Rag Fair draws on approaches across migration history, economic history, economic anthropology and the sociology of political movements to uncover the social mechanisms at work in the old clothing trade.

In recent decades the study of the ancient economy and ancient warfare have both been transformed by ground-breaking new studies and methodological approaches. Offering a selection of cutting-edge research on the interlocked themes of economics and war, this edited volume explores how armed conflict affected markets and economic opportunities in ancient Greece. From the destruction of cities to the emergence of new fiscal institutions, war prompted massive changes to economic conditions throughout the ancient Mediterranean and beyond - some with lasting consequences for the organisation of states and armies. The contributors look beyond the old paradigms of finance and logistics, and broaden the discussion to address themes such as gender, literary culture and the Persian Empire. More specifically, they analyse how ancient rulers and states struggled to mobilise resources and what they did to tackle fiscal challenges to wage war more efficiently, thereby demonstrating how matters of war can be an invaluable source of information on the way ancient economies worked and developed. As a result, this book shows how the study of economic factors - too often neglected in works on ancient warfare - allows a deeper understanding of military cultures and events in ancient Greece.
