Book Synopsis Catalunya I California by : Lowell Lewis
Download or read book Catalunya I California written by Lowell Lewis and published by Author House. This book was released on 2013 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Catalonia Un país conegut pel seu esperit competitiu Durant els últims 300 anys, Catalonia ha estat una regió singular d'Europa. Ni espanyola, ni francesa: catalana. La seva singularitat és evident per la llengua, tot i que és molt més real per la forma que té de plantejar-se el comerç, el desenvolupament econòmic, l'educació i la política. Catalonia va ser una de les primeres regions del món que va adoptar una metodologia enfocada a estimular la competitivitat en una zona geogràfica concreta, millorant l'estratègia i el context laboral de les seves empreses. Actualment, hi ha arguments econòmics i empresarials de pes per defensar la independència de Catalonia. Històricament, el desenvolupament de Califòrnia deu molt a Catalonia i a dos catalans, Juníper Serra i Gaspar de Portolà. El 16 de juliol de 1769, Serra va iniciar la seva primera missió a San Diego, abans de dur-ne a terme nou més tot resseguint la costa californiana fins a San Francisco. Gaspar de Portolà va néixer a Os de Balaguer (Lleida) l'any 1716, era soldat i va ser governador de Califòrnia.

Download or read book Catalonia written by Kenneth H. McRoberts and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2022-02-10 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Located in north eastern Spain, Catalonia has long displayed the attributes of a nation: distinct language and culture, separate social and political institutions, and a strong collective identity. At the same time, it is one of Spain's centres of economic dynamism and innovation. As such, it is an especially striking instance of what has come to be known as 'minority' or 'internal' nations within a larger political order. Even after the Franco dictatorship's systematic suppression of Catalan language and culture, the idea that the Catalan nation needed to have an independent state of its own remained at the margins of Catalan politics. Yet, in recent years Catalan independence has become: the formal objective of Catalonia's nationalist parties; the focus of a strongly mobilized social movement; and the primary option of as much as half of Catalonia's electorate. This drive to independence even led to a failed unilateral declaration of independence. How can this remarkable transformation best be explained and what does it portend for the future of Catalonia and Spain? This new edition seeks to answer these questions. At the same time, the book analyzes the proposal for an independent Catalan state while also showing how the Catalan question might be resolved within Spain, by creating a multinational federation. It also explains why there is little prospect of either project coming to pass. The book demonstrates the dangers and contradictions of a state nationalism that denies the very existence of internal nations, while also exploring the terms under which such nations can be accommodated within a larger political order. On this basis, it addresses a critical challenge to the political institutions of much of Europe and North America.
Book Synopsis Multiantenna Systems for MIMO Communications by : Franco De
Download or read book Multiantenna Systems for MIMO Communications written by Franco De and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-05-31 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Advanced communication scenarios demand the development of new systemswhere antenna theory, channel propagation and communication models are seen from a common perspective as a way to understand and optimize the system as a whole. In this context, a comprehensive multiantenna formulation for multiple-input multiple-output systems is presented with a special emphasis on the connection of the electromagnetic and communication principles. Starting from the capacity for amultiantenna system, the book reviews radiation, propagation, and communicationmechanisms, paying particular attention to the vectorial, directional, and timefrequency characteristics of the wireless communication equation for low- and high-scattering environments. Based on the previous concepts, different space—time methods for diversity and multiplexing applications are discussed, multiantenna modeling is studied, and specific tools are introduced to analyze the antenna coupling mechanisms and formulate appropriate decorrelation techniques.Miniaturization techniques for closely spaced antennas are studied, and its fundamental limits and optimization strategies are reviewed. Finally, different practical multiantenna topologies for new communication applications are presented, and its main parameters discussed. A relevant feature is a collection of synthesis exercises that review the main topics of the book and introduces state-of-the art system architectures and parameters, facilitating its use either as a text book or as a support tool for multiantenna systems design. Table of Contents: Principles of Multiantenna Communication Systems / The Radio Channel for MIMO Communication Systems / Coding Theory for MIMO Communication Systems / Antenna Modeling for MIMO Communication Systems / Design of MPAs for MIMO Communication Systems / Design Examples and Performance Analysis of Different MPAs / References / List of Acronyms / List of Symbols / Operators and Mathematical Symbols

Book Synopsis Migrant Communication Enterprises by : Maria Sabaté i Dalmau
Download or read book Migrant Communication Enterprises written by Maria Sabaté i Dalmau and published by Multilingual Matters. This book was released on 2014-08-04 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This unique critical sociolinguistic ethnography explores alternative migrant-regulated institutions of resistance and subversive communication technology: the locutorios or ethnic call shops. These migrant-owned businesses act as a window into their multimodal and hybrid linguistic and communicative practices, and into their own linguistic hierarchies and non-mainstream sociolinguistic orders. Here, socially displaced but technologically empowered transnational migrant populations actively find subversive ways to access information and communication technologies. As such they mobilise their own resources to successfully inhabit Catalonia, at the margins of powerful institutions. The book also focuses on the (internal) social organisation dynamics, as well as on the simultaneous fight against, and re-production of, practices and processes of social difference and social inequality among migrants themselves.

Book Synopsis Reconceptualizing Development in the Global Information Age by : Manuel Castells
Download or read book Reconceptualizing Development in the Global Information Age written by Manuel Castells and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 381 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The conditions in which 'development'--the process by which people, individually and collectively, enhance their capacities to improve their lives according to their values and interests--operates have significantly changed in the global information age, a period characterized by the technological revolution in information and communication, the rise of the networking form of social organization, and the global interdependence of economies and societies. This volume aims to redefine the means and goals of development in this new context: first, by characterizing the specific mode of development, informational development, that the authors consider to be the driver of the creation of material wealth in the twenty-first century; secondly, by reconceptualizing human development as the fulfilment of human wellbeing in the multidimensionality of the human experience, ultimately affirming dignity as the supreme value of development; thirdly, by examining the relationship between informational development and human development. After first setting out its analytical framework, the book brings together a diverse set of empirically-rich case studies to illustrate this investigation from across the globe--Silicon Valley, Costa Rica, Chile, South Africa, Finland, the European Union, and China--and concludes by attempting to reconceptualize development. It raises important questions and provides observations, including examining the concept of 'dignity as development', to contribute to a policy debate that should provide specific answers linked to the conditions of each society, and be enacted by democratic institutions in a concerted global effort to save humankind while there is still time.
