Abstract:

The Atlas of Territorial Heritage in the Municipality of East Havana is a useful tool in order to reach a complete knowledge of an extended Cuban municipality belonging to Havana, Cuba. At the same time the atlas is useful to generate analytical bases for future urban planning interventions and transformations, which can be focused on the idea of territorial heritage as an essential resource for a self-sustaining development. The main objective is to explain the tangible and intangible components of the heritage and try to stimulate and strengthen the community’s awareness on the richness of t

Abstract Worth the While presents comparative case studies of clock time from Fiji and Finland in order to ask what other values is time capable of expressing besides monetary worth – what “else” can time be besides money? Time is a highly particular vehicle for different considerations of what is good or important, but it is also one which is deployed at different settings with surprisingly little consideration for the specificity of this particular a value form. This book looks into the different ways in which time is deployed in value projects in Fiji and Finland, not just to point out the

In the context of the reformatting of the new world order, the question of the competitiveness of countries and regions also arises in a new way. At the same time, a set of factors and conditions that determine the competitiveness of regions and its key link, such as their investment attractiveness, are beginning to be perceived in a special way. And the point here is not only in the specific components of the investment potential of competing regions, but also in such combinations of them as become the subject of the art of management.

The essays in Zero Point ask how we distinguish defeat from disaster, and how we confront despair without collapsing into it - questions never more pertinent than the current moment in the wake of electoral victories for authoritarian populists and unceasing news of violent atrocities.

Taken from Vladimir Lenin's 1922 piece 'On Ascending a High Mountain, in which Lenin considers the complexities of how one 'retreats' while keeping faith in the cause, the central simile of the cli

Abstract:

This book explores the idea that people in Western Europe changed the way they thought about time over the early modern period; and it does so by examining their reactions to the 1688–9 revolution in England. It examines how those who lived through the extraordinary collapse of James II’s regime perceived this event as it unfolded and how they set it within their understanding of history. It questions whether a new understanding of chronology—one which allowed fundamental and human-directed change—had been widely adopted by this point in the past; and whether this might have allowed witnesses

Abstract:

The velocity of a fluid at each point of space-time is a vector field (or flow). It is best to think of it in terms of the effect of fluid flow on some scalar field. A vector field is thus a first order partial differential operator, called the material derivative in fluid mechanics. The path of a speck of dust carried along (advected) by the fluid is the integral curve of the velocity field. Even simple vector fields can have quite complicated integral curves: a manifestation of chaos. Of special interest are incompressible (with zero divergence) and irrotational (with zero curl) flows.

Abstract:

In an “extrinsic” conflict, an agent’s desires pull her toward incompatible actions. As a matter of contingent fact, nothing she does will get her everything she wants. Intrinsically conflicted agents are conflicted at the level of value, and this means that the conflict fractures the agent’s evaluative point of view: in order to get the appeal of one of the things she wants fully in view, she must step out of the point of view from which the other appears attractive. For this reason, the conflict cannot be resolved by deliberation as to which side is better overall. Harry Frankfurt is wrong t

Abstract:

Despite improvements in short-term renal allograft survival, long-term survival has not appreciably changed. Excepting death with a functioning graft, most late graft loss results from chronic allograft dysfunction. Immune and non-immune-mediated injuries contribute to graft dysfunction over time, ultimately leading to a non-specific and irreversible histological end-point of fibrosis, tubular atrophy, and glomerulosclerosis. Screening and early identification of pathology is crucial to allow timely intervention in order to prevent permanent nephron damage and graft loss. This chapter outlines

This chapter continues the conceptual thread of “attraction” while exploring the film oeuvre of the “third genius” of silent screen comedy: Harold Lloyd.

The chapter argues that Lloyd, together with his producer Hal Roach, grasped the virtues of athletic performances on screen as a means of helping to train the masses somatically, in order to handle the demands of life in threatening urban settings.

Her support for military action in Bosnia and Kosovo was consistent with an assertive outlook that pre-dated her cabinet appointments.

Official Franciscan mythology recounts that unity was definitively restored to the third order with the rule that Pope Leo X promulgated in his 1521 bull Inter cetera. However, close examination reveals that this group (or indeed any other tertiary order) was no more organized at this time than at any other point in its history: confusion still existed between tertiaries and women known as beguines, and Observant attempts at regularization had often created distinct federations rather than a unified order.

This chapter discusses the eight-hour movement.

This public recognition came amid a generation-long national debate about slavery, free labor, and the roles of both in defining the social and economic order desired by Americans. The chapter then addresses the question of “whether time was a property that could be alienated from the self.” Those who answered “Yes” accepted the legiti

Only against an economic background can we understand why it was that the state in Germany was neither completely “prerogative” nor completely “normative” but rather “dual.” The kind and the degree of historical “necessity” involved in the emergence of the dual state in Germany needs to

Special attention is paid to the synchronic and diachronic syntax of those cases in which a head-initial VP co-occurs with a head-final TP, a configuration which yields the order ‘VOAux’. The availability of this pattern can be considered surprising in the light of recent work on the linearization of syntactic structures (Biberauer et al. 2014).

The activation energy of an elementary reaction can be interpreted as the average energy of the molecules that react minus the average energy of the reactants. Speci

The contributions highlight connections between our everyday treatment of animals and other forms of social power, mass violence, and domination, from capitalism and patriarchy to genocide, fascism, and ecocide.

Their work was also inextricably dependent upon the vigorous Mishnaic studies of early modern Jewish communities.

Abstract:

Ever since Syria won its independence from France in 1946, it has been a crucial player in Middle Eastern politics. Over the years, relations between the United States and Syria have fluctuated as Washington has tried to balance its commitment to Israel's security with its support for Arab regimes in order to protect vital and strategic interests in the Arab world. The Arab-Israeli conflict is, however. no longer the only focal point of the relationship. Now, terrorism has entered the fray. On the State Department's terrorism list since 1979, Syria became even more persona non grata as far as

Abstract:

The rise of globalisation has made it necessary for breakthroughs in scientific and technological fields in the direction of their usability, utilising efficient management practices and ethical methods. This, in turn, has powerfully stimulated the opening of new avenues of study to meet the developing patterns across all industries and service sectors over time. The progress and development that have resulted from the contributions of research done in the past have been only temporary. However, it was unable to fully measure the methodical sequences in terms of progress throughout to fulfil h

Abstract:

Raymond Williams was “by common consent” one of the “two most commanding intellectual figures in the New Left that emerged in Britain at the turn of the sixties,” the other being Edward Thompson. Williams published in 1961 a text entitled “The Future of Marxism.” In that essay, Williams has some remarkable things to say about imperialism, the successes of actually existing socialism, balanced against its failures, and the continued relevance of socialism as the horizon of human liberation. He also makes a characteristic methodological point: “the relation between systems of thought and actual

Abstract:

Hard coal mining is characterised by features that pose numerous challenges to its current operations and cause strategic and operational problems in planning its development. The most important of these include the high capital intensity of mining investment projects and the dynamically changing environment in which the sector operates, while the long-term role of the sector is dependent on factors originating at both national and international level. At the same time, the conditions for coal mining are deteriorating, the resources more readily available in active mines are being exhausted, m

Abstract:

TOWARDS THE NEW LIFE Theology and Importance of Christian Initiation for the Life of Faith The book is in equal parts a presentation and an invitation. The subject matter of both is the mystagogical initiation leading to the personal encounter with God and eventually to the union within the Church in Christ, which happens initially and particualry in the sacramental liturgy. Mystagogy was the essential experience of life in the early Church and now is being so intensely discussed and postulated by the ecclesial Magisterium and through the teaching of the recent popes and synods.
