Book Synopsis Community Education and the Western World by : Angelika Kruger
Download or read book Community Education and the Western World written by Angelika Kruger and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2002-11-01 with total page 339 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Community education is now a worldwide phenomenon. It may have as its operational focus a school or community centre; or it may have no specific location but be an activity of a village or neighbourhood. It may be primarily concerned with learning, or with community development or with community action. Inevitably and properly, its form derives from the social and historical context of each country and from the needs of its people. The editors of this volume have a wide experience of international community education, both through their work for the International Community Education Association and their personal links with many of the countries represented here.

Download or read book Immigration written by Susan Sterett and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-05-15 with total page 660 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Whilst immigration policy is a highly controversial topic in the West, states continue to receive people who settle, whether as asylum-seekers or refugees, or as family members of existing migrants or labour migrants. Many who move violate the immigration rules either in entering a country or staying beyond the time allowed. The problems illegality entails for migrants shape much of the law and society scholarship in this area and this volume brings together the key articles which shape current thinking. The main topics covered include illegality, mercy and the language of deservingness; transnationality; family and identity; refugees and asylum-seekers.
Book Synopsis Social Ecology and the Right to the City by : Venturini Federico Venturini
Download or read book Social Ecology and the Right to the City written by Venturini Federico Venturini and published by Black Rose Books Ltd.. This book was released on 2020-03-01 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cities today are increasingly at the forefront of the environmental and social crisis-they are simultaneously a major cause and a potential solution. Across the world, a new wave of urban social movements is rising to fight against corporate control, social exclusion, hostile immigration policies, gender oppression, and ecological devastation. These movements are building economic, social, and political alternatives based on solidarity, equality, and participation. This anthology develops the debates that began at the recent Transnational Institute of Social Ecology's (TRISE) conference about the dire need to rebuild the social and political realities of our world's cities. It discusses the prospects of radical urban movements; examines the revolutionary potential of the concept of "e;the Right to the City,"e; and looks at how activists, scholars, and community movements can work together towards an ecological and democratic future. A fruitful conversation between theory and practice, this book opens new ground for rethinking systemic urban change in a way that challenges oppression and transforms how people work, create, and live together.

Book Synopsis The Plant Hormone Ethylene by : Antonio Ferrante
Download or read book The Plant Hormone Ethylene written by Antonio Ferrante and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2022-12-05 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Plant Hormone Ethylene: Stress Acclimation and Agricultural Applications presents current knowledge on our understanding of ethylene perception and signaling, its role in the regulation of plant physiological processes, and its contribution to acclimation in stressful environments. Plants regularly face environmental constraints due to their immobile nature. In persistently changing environmental conditions, several stress factors influence cellular metabolism, ultimately causing reduced plant growth and development with a significant loss in agricultural productivity. Sustainable agriculture depends on the acclimation of plant processes to the changing environment through altered physiological and molecular responses, which are controlled by plant hormones, including ethylene. Ethylene interacts with other plant hormones and signaling molecules to regulate several cellular processes, plant growth and development, and, ultimately, crop productivity. This book begins with an introduction to ethylene before providing a detailed study of the latest findings on the role of ethylene in plants, including its role in photosynthetic processes, flower development, leaf senescence, nutrients acquisition, and regulation of abiotic stress responses as well as its application in agriculture. The book is an ideal guide for researchers exploring plant physiology and biochemistry as well as for those investigating the use of ethylene knowledge in agriculture in persistently changing environmental conditions. - Provides state-of-the art insights into ethylene-regulated photosynthesis, growth, and productivity in crop plants - Presents regulatory mechanisms of ethylene action - Assists in developing physiomolecular strategies for augmenting crop performance in persistently changing environmental conditions
Book Synopsis Surfaces and Interfaces for Renewable Energy by : Francisco Manzano-Agugliaro
Download or read book Surfaces and Interfaces for Renewable Energy written by Francisco Manzano-Agugliaro and published by MDPI. This book was released on 2020-02-05 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Environmental problems derived from the massive use of conventional energy resources are one of the main issues that our society has been facing in recent decades. Renewable energies (and particularly solar energy) have become a highly competitive means to meet the world’s increasing energy demands in a sustainable and clean manner. One of the key research challenges for the commercial deployment of several solar energy technologies is focused on the development of feasible and durable coatings that withstand appropriate optical and thermal performance over the lifetime of the solar facilities. This book addresses a number of relevant aspects related to coatings for renewable energies, including a deep survey of coatings used in photovoltaic solar energy, the development of a superhydrophobic and thermal stable silica coating that is potentially suitable for various industrial applications related to renewable technologies, the development of coatings to improve the resistance of structural materials used in concentrating solar thermal technologies with molten salts, and several research works related to solar reflectors for concentrating solar thermal technologies (such us the advanced analysis of the corrosion, the suitability of anti-soiling coatings, and the development of top protective coatings for high-temperature secondary concentrators).

Download or read book Fulgurations written by Béatrice Adam and published by BoD - Books on Demand. This book was released on 2022-10-10 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a courageous opening of photographic self-observation to the other, the works of the two photographers-JiniAfonso and Natalia Zavialova-allow participation in the search for the self. With the juxtaposition and confrontation of the two oeuvres, the exhibition and catalogue create a nexus that leads to fulgurations in the communication of the photographs-electrical short circuits between the images, the photographers and the viewer. The resulting newness, a temporary third, makes us aware of the subcutaneous connections with ourselves, both as a reflection and as a pictorially emotional experience.

Book Synopsis Black in Latin America by : Henry Louis Gates, Jr.
Download or read book Black in Latin America written by Henry Louis Gates, Jr. and published by NYU Press. This book was released on 2012-08-01 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 12.5 million Africans were shipped to the New World during the Middle Passage. While just over 11.0 million survived the arduous journey, only about 450,000 of them arrived in the United States. The rest-over ten and a half million-were taken to the Caribbean and Latin America. This astonishing fact changes our entire picture of the history of slavery in the Western hemisphere, and of its lasting cultural impact. These millions of Africans created new and vibrant cultures, magnificently compelling syntheses of various African, English, French, Portuguese, and Spanish influences. Despite their great numbers, the cultural and social worlds that they created remain largely unknown to most Americans, except for certain popular, cross-over musical forms. So Henry Louis Gates, Jr. set out on a quest to discover how Latin Americans of African descent live now, and how the countries of their acknowledge-or deny-their African past; how the fact of race and African ancestry play themselves out in the multicultural worlds of the Caribbean and Latin America. Starting with the slave experience and extending to the present, Gates unveils the history of the African presence in six Latin American countries-Brazil, Cuba, the Dominican Republic, Haiti, Mexico, and Peru-through art, music, cuisine, dance, politics, and religion, but also the very palpable presence of anti-black racism that has sometimes sought to keep the black cultural presence from view.

Book Synopsis Cesare Zavattini: Selected Writings by : David Brancaleone
Download or read book Cesare Zavattini: Selected Writings written by David Brancaleone and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2021-07-15 with total page 1011 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Volume 1 makes available for the first time in English thirty-nine scenarios and two treatments. Each text is preceded by an introduction, providing an essential frame of reference to make these writings entirely accessible to the reader. While nearly all these texts belong to the post-war period, including the stories for major post-war classics, there are also seven pre-war raccontini, the narrative source of Zavattini's Modernist magical realism, several fictional interviews and faux reportage, tinged with irony aimed at Hollywood, complemented by several pre-war scenarios. The book also features scenarios for Luchino Visconti's Bellissima, Alessandro Blasetti's First Communion, De Sica's The Roof and texts encompassing Zavattini's ethnographic vision, from the redactions of Italia mia, interviews for Un paese, illustrated with Paul Strand's photographs, to the scenarios for investigative documentaries, including Why?, The Mysteries of Rome, The Guinea Pig, the Free Newsreel Revolution, and the lucid Before, During After, tackling Aldo Moro's assassination by the Red Brigades. The book includes Zavattini's last word on cinema and society, the testamentary satire La veritàaaa (1982), written, directed and acted by Zavattini himself. Each text is preceded by an introduction, providing an essential frame of reference to make these writings entirely accessible to the reader. Volume 2 brings to the fore Zavattini's ever-evolving internal dialogue between diary writer, screenwriter, narrative writer, and political activist. Essential to trace the origin of Zavattini's ideas on cinema and understand his theorization of Neo-realism is the inclusion of a selection of the filmmaker's pre-war writings. Most of the book provides a substantial anthology of texts translated from Neorealismo ecc. (1979), comprising Zavattini's major essays, conference papers, unpublished production papers, interviews, and vital excerpts from his correspondence and published cinematic diary. Through translation and detailed cultural and contextual commentary, translator and editor David Brancaleone traces not only Zavattini's theory of the screen, but also his experimentation in new film practices, including the flash-film (film lampo), the inquiry film (film inchiesta), cinema as encounter (cinema d'incontro), the diary film (film diario), the confessional film (film-confessione), and the grass-roots community film (cinema insieme or cinema di tanti per tanti). Each text is preceded by an introduction, providing an essential frame of reference to make these writings entirely accessible to the reader.
