Download or read book The Future of Self-Governing, Thriving Democracies written by Brigitte Geissel and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2022-11-15 with total page 227 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers a new approach for the future of democracy by advocating to give citizens the power to deliberate and to decide how to govern themselves. Innovatively building on and integrating components of representative, deliberative and participatory theories of democracy with empirical findings, the book provides practices and procedures that support communities of all sizes to develop their own visions of democracy. It revitalizes and reinfuses the ‘democratic spirit’ going back to the roots of democracy as an endeavor by, with and for the people, and should inspire us in our search for the democracy we want to live in. This book is of key interest to scholars and students in democracy, democratic innovations, deliberation, civic education and governance and further for policy-makers, civil society groups and activists. It encourages us to reshape democracy based on citizens’ perspectives, aspirations and preferences.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Electoral democracies are struggling. Sintomer, in this instructive book, argues for democratic innovations. One such innovation is using random selection to create citizen bodies with advisory or decisional political power. 'Sortition' has a long political history. Coupled with elections, it has represented an important yet often neglected dimension of Republican and democratic government, and has been reintroduced in the Global North, China and Mexico. The Government of Chance explores why sortation is returning, how it is coupled with deliberation, and why randomly selected 'minipublics' and citizens' assemblies are flourishing. Relying on a growing international and interdisciplinary literature, Sintomer provides the first systematic and theoretical reconstruction of the government of chance from Athens to the present. At what conditions can it be rational? What lessons can be drawn from history? The Government of Chance therefore clarifies the democratic imaginaries at stake: deliberative, antipolitical, and radical, making a plaidoyer for the latter.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Overcoming Cancers Resistant to HER-2 Antibodies provides general updated information on the resistance of various human cancers to anti-HER2 therapeutic antibodies. The book also discusses the description of various sensitizing agents that can reverse resistance when used in combination with anti-HER2 antibodies. There have been a lot of reports in which the treatment with anti-HER2 antibodies for various cancers has resulted in clinical responses; however, there have been also subsets of cancer patients who did not respond initially, and several responding patients developed resistance following treatments. Sections cover Lapatinib, Ganetespib, Paclitaxel, Celecoxib, Emantasine, Liposomal Doxorubicin, and Kinase Inhibitors.This book is a valuable source for cancer researchers, oncologists, pharmacologists and different members of the biomedical field interested in fighting cancer resistance to HER-2 antibodies. - Provides a general summary of various sensitizing agents that can work effectively when used in combination with anti-HER2 antibodies to reverse resistance - Offers potential underlying mechanisms by which cancer cells are either inherently resistant or become unresponsive to antibody treatment - Discusses how to develop new targeted agents to underlie resistance in order to expand research on this field

Download or read book Functional Representation and Democracy in the EU written by Corinna Wolff and published by ECPR Press. This book was released on 2024-08-22 with total page 419 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Involving civil society – in particular affected stakeholders – is often seen as a solution to democratic deficits. High expectations ride on the promise of participation in new modes of governance at the EU, such as the Open Method of Coordination (OMC). But its results have been modest, and it is unclear who should participate where, and how. Corinna Wolff offers a consistent framework to assess participation from the perspective of democratic legitimacy, conceptualising it as functional representation. She reviews recent theories of representation, develops them into a tool to deal with complex governance settings, then applies this framework to functional representation at the European Commission in EU social policy. The results indicate that far from being a panacea, functional representation raises fundamental questions about the possibilities for democratic European governance.

Download or read book Minimally Invasive Pediatric Surgery: How To Improve and Overcome Limitations written by Edoardo Bindi and published by Frontiers Media SA. This book was released on 2024-07-29 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pediatric surgery, among all the surgical specialties, is the one that has perhaps evolved the most in a shorter period of time compared to the others. In 1995 van der Zee performed the first laparoscopic CDH repair and after that surgical techniques have undergone continuous improvements, up to goals that were unimaginable a few years ago, such as performing robotic-assisted surgical procedures on patients under the age of one. The evolution of techniques and knowledge has made it possible to overcome barriers, operating with minimally invasive techniques on small patients with complex pathologies while ensuring reduced postoperative pain, good cosmetic results, and short hospitalization period. In particular, robot-assisted surgery has made it easier for pediatric surgeons to perform very important reconstructive-type procedures. Just think, for example, of robotic pyeloplasty, which has become a widely performed procedure in pediatric centers, given the greater precision and accuracy of robotic instruments in performing pyelo-ureteral anastomosis. These observations have allowed the bar to be moved higher and higher until patients with choledochal cysts are now being treated robotically. At the same time, all this has made it easier for even the youngest surgeons and residents to acquire basic technical skills, increasing the speed of acquiring the learning curves necessary to be surgically autonomous. In addition, other types of technological innovations have come to the aid of pediatric surgeons, such as rendering programs that have facilitated not only the planning of more complex operations but have also made it easier to create simulations for surgical training. In this Special Issue, we want to give space to all papers that aim to describe and highlight minimally invasive surgical experiences, with more emphasis on how technological innovation combined with the surgeon's knowledge and intuition can move surgical limits forward and make the most complex procedures easier.

Download or read book Genetic Improvement of Bioenergy Crops written by Wilfred Vermerris and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2008-08-02 with total page 464 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ethanol as an alternative fuel is receiving a lot of attention because it addresses concerns related to dwindling oil supplies, energy independence, and climate change. The majority of the ethanol in the US is produced from corn starch. With the US Department of Energy’s target that 30% of the fuel in the US is produced from renewable resources by 2030, the anticipated demand for corn starch will quickly exceed the current production of corn. This, plus the concern that less grain will become available for food and feed purposes, necessitates the use of other feedstocks for the production of ethanol. For the very same reasons, there is increasing research activity and growing interest in many other biomass crops. Genetic Improvement of Bio-Energy Crops focuses on the production of ethanol from lignocellulosic biomass, which includes corn stover, biomass from dedicated annual and perennial energy crops, and trees as well as a number of important biomass crops. The biomass is typically pretreated through thermochemical processing to make it more amenable to hydrolysis with cellulolytic enzymes. The enzymatic hydrolysis yields monomeric sugars that can be fermented to ethanol by micro-organisms. While much emphasis has been placed on the optimization of thermo-chemical pretreatment processes, production of more efficient hydrolytic enzymes, and the development of robust microbial strains, relatively little effort has been dedicated to the improvement of the biomass itself.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the various ways in which citizens are represented in EU policy-making. Most accounts naturally focus on the European Parliament as the prime source of democratic representation. This collection focuses instead on four other channels that are as and often more important: namely, representation via governments, national parliaments, civil society organisations and directly, via referenda. Based on original research, the book combines democratic theory with detailed empirical analysis to provide an innovative, timely and up-to-date evaluation of the nature of representation in the EU. Policy advisors, practitioners and those scholars interested in democracy and the European Union will find this volume to be a valuable resource. This book was published as a special issue of the Journal of European Integration.
