Abstract:
The study investigates how the church in Zambia can effectively facilitate change toward reducing HIV-risky behaviour. The researcher posits that an intricate connection exists between HIV-risky behaviour and the socio-cultural context of majority people groups in Zambia. He further argues that much risky behaviour is imbedded in pervasive socio-cultural norms and traditions propelled by a worldview which essentially resists transformation. From an insider’s perspective the researcher will design a praxis model for transforming Zambian worldview facets with regard to HIV/AIDS predisposing beha

Abstract:
This licentiate thesis builds on the understanding that there is an urgent need for radical and systemic transformations towards sustainability in all parts of society, since current socio-ecological relations are highly unsustainable. The aim of the thesis is to explore emerging societal transformations towards strengthened sustainability through case studies within planning for sea-level rise and the food system, respectively. A warmer climate leads to rising sea levels. Although it is uncertain how fast sea levels will rise, and by how much, preparing and adapting to sea-level rise is cruci

Abstract:
The biogeochemical cycling of nitrogen has been studied in detail at a predominantly acid grassland nature reserve, Hob Moor, just outside the city of York in the UK. Because of the risk of more frequent and/or extended summer droughts as a potential consequence of climate change, particular attention was paid to the influence of drying and rewetting upon the mobility of mineral N species. It was found that ammonification proceeds after net nitrification has ceased, and that subsequently nitrate is immobilized when the drying period is protracted. It is suggested that this is probably due to u

La thèse étudie les mécanismes générateurs de potentiels de résilience territoriale pour une meilleure gestion des risques de catastrophes (naturel, technologique, sanitaire, etc.) tout en questionnant le rôle des SIS dans ce cadre. Les connaissances étant une source clé de résilience, nous centrons nos réflexions sur les compétences et processus clés constitutifs des mécanismes. La recherche est conduite en 2 phases. La première phase, exploratoire, permet de poser des fondations (ex. cadre d’analyse) pour investiguer différents terrains d’étude dans la seconde phase. Cette dernière permet un

Abstract:
The global competition economy is impacting the way local government is run and how local elected officials behave. Within local government, elected officials are reacting to the changes by positioning themselves within the global political economy. Two key actors linking the global and the local are local elected officials and ethnic entrepreneurs. It is important to understand what behaviours are facilitating the connection of local economies to the global economy and what local structures enable or inhibit the activity. This research examines the changing behaviours and structures at the lo

Abstract:
Divorces in the United States during the twentieth century were, to say the least, extremely difficult to obtain. Most states had few grounds for divorce, and some, like New York, only allowed divorce in the instance of proven adultery. Waiting periods could stretch from one to three years. But for some hopeful divorcees, there was another way. Nevada had nine broad grounds for divorce, among them “mental cruelty.” After 1931, anyone could become a Nevada citizen and divorce within the state after a mere six weeks of residency. Before the widespread liberalization of divorce law in the early t

Cette thèse est constituée de cinq essais sur la thématique de la finance climatique. En combinant des méthodes d’analyse qualitatives et quantitatives, elle fournit aux décideurs publics et aux investisseurs de nouvelles perspectives pour leurs décisions dans un contexte marqué par le changement climatique. Si la finance climatique est indispensable pour lutter contre ce dernier, les résultats de ces essais montrent que, utilisée de manière productive, elle pourrait être un moteur de transformation structurelle durable dans les pays en développement. De plus, risques climatiques auront des im
