This book was released on 2013-01-24 with total page 19 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Le changement climatique est source d’immenses défis pour toute analyse éthique, économique et politique. Nous connaissons l’ampleur de l’action requise et les domaines dans lesquels il faut agir : efficacité énergétique, technologies sobres en carbone, déforestation. Nous avons une idée des technologies à développer. Nous comprenons bien les politiques économiques élémentaires qui incitent à la réduction des émissions, à l’arrêt de la déforestation et à la promotion d’un usage plus raisonné de notre environnement naturel et de ses ressources. Le défi consiste aujourd’hui à insuffler la volonté politique d’accomplir tous ces changements.

Book Synopsis Literatures of Medieval France by : Michel Zink
Download or read book Literatures of Medieval France written by Michel Zink and published by Collège de France. This book was released on 2017-02-13 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This long tradition would certainly not be a reason in itself to keep or restore the subject, had it not something to do with the subject itself. All of the associations between the past and literature, all of the signs that point towards an essential link between the notion of literature and a feeling for the past, are crystallized in medieval literature. The curiosity that medieval literature has aroused since it was rediscovered at the dawn of Romanticism presupposes such associations. The very forms of this literature bear indications of them. They encourage us to consider jointly the interest of modern times in the medieval past and the signs of the past with which the Middle Ages marked its own literature. Even more, they invite us to seek in the relationship with the past a defining criterion for literature, a most necessary task with reference to a time when words are not understood in their modern sense, and there is no guarantee that a corresponding notion exists. The best reason to continue with this hundred-and-fifty-year-old teaching is that its object may not even exist.
Book Synopsis On the Origins of Global History by : Sanjay Subrahmanyam
Download or read book On the Origins of Global History written by Sanjay Subrahmanyam and published by Collège de France. This book was released on 2016-03-17 with total page 23 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How does one think of history on a world scale? Should one turn to the intellectuals of the past or the historians of the present? Universal history as it was practised from Antiquity started to change from the sixteenth century in varied contexts, from East Asia to Spanish America. Applying his extensive knowledge of archives across the world and his command of languages and historiographic traditions of Asia, Europe and the Americas, Sanjay Subrahmanyam considers the history of networks and exchanges of goods, myths and ideologies from a new perspective. He works outside traditional geopolitical frameworks based on the nation-state model, to present global history as a field defined and redefined by “connected histories”.
Book Synopsis Connected History by : Sanjay Subrahmanyam
Download or read book Connected History written by Sanjay Subrahmanyam and published by Verso Books. This book was released on 2022-01-04 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A collection of essays that span many regions and cultures, by an award-winning historian Sanjay Subrahmanyam is becoming well known for the same sort of reasons that attach to Fernand Braudel and Carlo Ginzburg, as the proponent of a new kind of history - in his case, not longue durée or micro-history, but 'connected history': connected cross-culturally, and spanning regions, subjects and archives that are conventionally treated alone. Not a research paradigm, he insists, it is more of an oppositionswissenschaft, a way of trying to constantly break the moulds of historical objects. The essays collected here, some quite polemical - as in the lead text on the notion of India-as-civilization, or another, assessing such a literary totem as V. S. Naipaul - illustrate the breadth of Subrahmanyam's concerns, as well as the quality of his writing. Connected History considers what, exactly, is an empire, the rise of 'the West' (less of a place than an idea or ideology, he insists), Churchill and the Great Man theory of history, the reception of world literature and the itinerary of subaltern studies, in addition to personal recollections of life and work in Delhi, Paris and Lisbon, and concluding remarks on the practice of early-modern history and the framing of historical enquiry.
Book Synopsis Architecture, Modernity, Modernization by : Jean-Louis Cohen
Download or read book Architecture, Modernity, Modernization written by Jean-Louis Cohen and published by Collège de France. This book was released on 2020-04-15 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The history of architecture constantly combines two perspectives: one is panoramic and turned towards urban ensembles so as to reveal social or technical policies, while the other looks in close shot at buildings, their interior, and their reflection of the ideals and engagement of their creators and occupants. By articulating the thoughts of twentieth-century theoreticians, philosophers, writers and architects (such as Mies van der Rohe, Wright, or Le Corbusier), Jean-Louis Cohen offers a new approach to architecture as a subject of inquiry and as a practice – one that is rooted in cultural history and in its human dimension.
Book Synopsis Anthropology of Nature by : Philippe Descola
Download or read book Anthropology of Nature written by Philippe Descola and published by Collège de France. This book was released on 2014-07-08 with total page 19 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It looks as though the anthropology of nature is an oxymoron of sorts, given that for the past few centuries, nature has been characterized in the West by humans’ absence, and humans, by their capacity to overcome what is natural in them. But nature does not exist as a sphere of autonomous realities for all peoples. By positing a universal distribution of humans and non-humans in two separate ontological fields, we are for one quite ill equipped to analyse all those systems of objectification of the world in which a formal distinction between nature and culture does not obtain. This type of distinction moreover appears to go against what the evolutionary and life sciences have taught us about the phyletic continuity of organisms. Our singularity in relation to all other existents is relative, as is our awareness of it.

Book Synopsis The Voice and the Quill. The Paths of Canonization of the Quʾrān by : François Déroche
Download or read book The Voice and the Quill. The Paths of Canonization of the Quʾrān written by François Déroche and published by Collège de France. This book was released on 2020-04-24 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How can we hope to understand Islam without knowing how its founding text, the Qurʾān, took shape and then crystalized? The discovery of a palimpsest in Sanaa in 1973 confirmed the existence of other recensions of the Qurʾānic text in the first centuries of Islam. Studies of these documents and of the manuscripts of the predominant transmission have made it possible to identify the various strata of texts and the variants that were gradually excluded. This unprecedented approach to the Qurʾān profoundly renews the intellectual and cultural history of the Muslim world.
Book Synopsis Comparative Legal Studies and Internationalization of Law by : Mireille Delmas-Marty
Download or read book Comparative Legal Studies and Internationalization of Law written by Mireille Delmas-Marty and published by Collège de France. This book was released on 2015-02-12 with total page 17 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By combining a method – comparative studies – with an ongoing process – the internationalization of law, that is, its extension beyond national borders – this Chair looks to the future, as uncertain as it may be. Of course current events tragically highlight the absence of a real legal world order. The collective security system of the Charter of the United Nations has shown its weaknesses and law has been unable to disarm force. Conversely, however, force cannot prevent this unprecedented extension of law, to the extent that no State can lastingly override it. In spite of appearances, it is no longer possible today to ignore the superposition of regional, national and global standards, nor the over-abundance of both national and international institutions and judges, with expanded jurisdiction. The new realities are causing law to evolve into complex and highly unstable interactive systems that are perhaps more symptomatic of profound change than of the defeat of law: we are faced with a change in the very conception of the legal order.
Book Synopsis The Dynamics of Living Systems by : Thomas Lecuit
Download or read book The Dynamics of Living Systems written by Thomas Lecuit and published by Collège de France. This book was released on 2020-11-16 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How can we explain the fundamental paradox of living matter, which combines stability and robustness of form with constant internal dynamics? It is not only the genetic information contained in every cell, but also numerous stochastic biomolecular processes that are at work in morphogenesis. In addition, the shaping of an organism is driven by mechanical forces that operate within and between cells, across tissues and organs. The dynamics of morphogenesis is a self-organized process that emerges from biological control and physical constraints at all scales. Its study is currently bringing together a fast-growing interdisciplinary community that observes, analyses and models living organisms.

Book Synopsis Chemistry of Biological Processes: an Introduction by : Marc Fontecave
Download or read book Chemistry of Biological Processes: an Introduction written by Marc Fontecave and published by Collège de France. This book was released on 2014-02-05 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Life depends on the ability of living organisms to effectively harness the chemical potential of their environment, namely the sun, for energy, and a certain number of molecules which exist on the Earth’s surface, such as water, oxygen, carbon dioxide, nitrogen, etc. These molecules need to be activated if benefit is to be derived from them, which requires profound electronic modifications that only metal ions can provide. Truly extraordinary metalloenzymes with highly subtle mechanisms are responsible for this activation. Bioinorganic chemistry straddles the disciplines of chemistry and biology and is in full expansion today. This discipline was born of the recent realisation that life is not solely organic but also “mineral”, and that no life can exist without metals.
