More Less | | Visa, Wire transfer | Sample translations submitted: 2 English to German: Moderate Islamists as Reform Actors (SWP Research Paper 2007/RP 04, p. 22)
General field: Social Sciences | Source text - English
The Justice and Development Party (Adalet ve Kalkınma Partisi or AKP) epitomises the ability of political Islam in Turkey to adapt to changing political conditions. Since the AKP joined government and the ideal of an Islamic state largely lost its appeal in Turkey, the party abandoned its Islamist rhetoric and has taken to pursuing a pragmatic and moderate course in its core policies. This has resulted in new alliances with supporters of domestic reforms both in Turkey and abroad. The long-standing issue of religious freedom is one of the problems that should be solved by the reform process necessary for meeting the criteria of the EU. Additionally, the AKP is attempting to address the question of secularism from a liberal perspective. The reform of political Islam in Turkey is not yet complete, but progreß to date may be considered a good sign that political Islam is compatible with liberal democratic principles.

Die Partei für Gerechtigkeit und Entwicklung (Adalet ve Kalkınma Partisi – AKP) verkörpert die Anpassungsfähigkeit des politischen Islams in der Türkei an sich verändernde politische Rahmenbedingungen. Seit die AKP an der Regierung beteiligt ist und zudem das Ideal eines islamischen Staates seine Anziehungskraft weitgehend eingebüßt hat, hat die Partei ihre islamistische Rhetorik aufgegeben und betreibt in zentralen Punkten eine pragmatische und moderate Politik. Dies führte auch zu neuen Bündnissen mit in- und ausländischen Unterstützern innenpolitischer Reformen. Der für die Erfüllung der EU-Kriterien notwendige Reformprozeß sollte unter anderem die seit langem auf der Tagesordnung stehende Problematik der Religionsfreiheit lösen. Außerdem versucht die AKP die Frage des Säkularismus aus liberaler Perspektive anzugehen. Die Reform des politischen Islams in der Türkei ist noch nicht vollendet, ist aber als positives Signal dafür zu werten, daß dieser sich durchaus mit liberaldemokratischen Prinzipien vereinbaren läßt.

Steljes, the technology distributor, is announcing the European launch of its mobile broadband solutions, whereby assets are bundled with mobile broadband connectivity and charged to the end user on an airtime contract.
The move coincides with the opening of Steljes’ European Headquarters in Cologne, Germany, which will be used as a base to support existing customers and to support the growth of the company’s European business.
Martin Large CEO of Steljes comments: “It has been a great first year for Steljes in Europe and we have made strong progress in several markets with our Mainline Power product portfolio (www.mainlinepower.co.uk). We have proved the demand for our solution portfolio and that our unique value-added business model translates well to other markets.”
The first mobile broadband solution that Steljes is launching in Europe is a bundle of MediaTile’s highly successful wireless digital signage, the Steljes SMP2 media player and mobile broadband airtime from Vodafone.
“As well as the obvious affordability benefits, the beauty of the Steljes model is that, by utilising mobile broadband connectivity, the technology can sit where you want it, not where the network connection dictates,” adds Large.

Parallel zu dieser Markteinführung eröffnet Steljes seine neue Europazentrale in Köln. Sie wird der Betreuung bestehender Kunden dienen und die weitere europäische Expansion des Unternehmens unterstützen.
Martin Large, der CEO von Steljes erklärt dazu: „Für Steljes ist das erste Jahr auf dem europäischen Markt großartig verlaufen und wir haben mit unserer Mainline Power-Produktpalette (www.mainlinepower.co.uk) in verschiedenen Märkten große Fortschritte gemacht. Wir haben bewiesen, dass es eine große Nachfrage nach unserem Lösungsportfolio gibt und dass sich unser einzigartiges wertschöpfendes Geschäftsmodell gut auf andere Märkte übertragen lässt.“
Die erste mobile Breitbandlösung, die Steljes in Europa auf den Markt bringt, besteht aus einem Paket, welches das drahtlose Digital-Signage-System von MediaTile, den SMP2 Mediaplayer von Steljes und eine mobile Breitbandverbindung von Vodafone beinhaltet.
„Das Steljes-Angebot hat nicht nur den Vorteil, dass es besonders erschwinglich ist, sondern das Schöne daran ist auch, dass die Technik mithilfe der mobilen Breitbandverbindung dort platziert werden kann, wo der Kunde sie haben möchte, anstatt da, wo es der Netzwerkanschluss verlangt“, fügt Large hinzu.
