Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -This book argues that treating politics as war derails essential democratic processes, including deliberation and policy argumentation, in complicated ways. 'Politics is war' is not always just a figure of speech, but often a sincere expression of how people see disagreement-they mean it literally-and they use it to evade the responsibilities of rhetoric. This book takes the metaphor seriously. Using a series of case studies ranging from the 432 BCE 'Debate at Sparta' to Bill O'Reilly's recent invention of a 'War on Christmas,' Deliberating War illustrates pathologies of deliberation that arise when a community understands itself to be at political war. This book identifies recurrent rhetorical strategies that constrain or even effectively prohibit deliberation, such as deflecting, reframing, threat inflation, appealing to paired terms, claiming moral license, radicalizing a base. In short, what seems to be an effective solution to an immediate rhetorical problem-using hyperbole and demagoguery to persuade people to adopt a specific leader or policy-is a trap that prevents democratic practices of compromise, deliberation, fairness, reciprocity. Unhappily, threat inflation-even when well-intentioned--At some point, hyperbolic rhetoric becomes threat inflation, and then that inflated threat becomes the premise of policies, both foreign and domestic. And then agreeing as to the obvious existential threat posed by the Other and uniting behind the obvious policy solution is a necessary sign of being on the side of Good. Once communities become persuaded that they are in an apocalyptic battle between Good and Evil, politics as war can quickly become real war-often with far-reaching and catastrophic consequences.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -This book is based on Stephen Hill's direct experience working in the United Nations for many years as consultant and over a decade as full time Member of Staff-based in Indonesia and part-time in Paris, serving as United Nations Regional Director for Science for Asia and the Pacific as well as Principal Director and Ambassador of the United Nations Agency UNESCO (the UN Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization) across South East Asia.It was not always a quiet life. Stephen had to handle the negotiations and aftermath of two of his own UN staff taken hostage in 1996 for five months by freedom fighters into the jungles of West Papua; the May 1998 Revolution in Indonesia where he had to escape his house at 2.00am through mobs and fires while his own security staff had changed into civilian clothes and run off down the street to escape, then evacuate everyone else, but stay to report to the UN Security Council and liaise with the incoming Transition Government. In the early 2000s, Stephen needed to escape Indonesia, under UN Security instruction, from the terrorist organisation, Abu Sayyaf from Mindanao, the Southern Philippines, when they sent a Hit Squad down through Manado and across Sulawesi towards Jakarta to assassinate him in Jakarta because of his collaborative work throughout Mindanao's previous fundamentalist Islamic conflict zones, amongst other things, bringing literacy to 7,000 villagers, mainly women, building nine radio stations with community support across religious lines, and introducing basic education into Islamic Schools previously teaching only the Koran and Arabic.This book captures all of this rather exciting life but delivers a message from experience-the Power of Community and Cultural Empowerment in successful United Nations Action to bring positive change into the world.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -This book constructs the theoretical framework based on a range of prominent social theories to address how juvenile delinquency is socioeconomically constructed. Here the presentation of conceptual details is supported by Chinese literature that rationalises, problematises, and analyses how left-behind children are vulnerable to premature smoking, heavy drinking and drug abuse and. I critically review all the most recent publications to highlight the most updated socioeconomic structure of juvenile delinquency experienced by Chinese left-behind children. In addition, the author summarises and analyses all the most up-to-date policy recommendations and evaluations concerning the mitigation of left-behind children's juvenile delinquency. The policymaking outputs help inform readers on how Chinese policymakers have specifically been endeavouring to intervene in left-behind children's delinquent behaviours and what policy directions the corresponding policymakers are trending towards in the future.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -Schizophrenia Spectrum Disorders (SSD) manifest multidimensionally, presenting a syndromic nature with several symptomatic domains. These are driven by dynamic systemic biological changes that unfold over the course of the disease. Thus far, the diagnosis is solely based on symptoms, which may be rather subjective, moving research toward the search for SSD biomarkers. This book presents a summary of the main hypotheses that have evolved over time to explain the pathophysiology of SSD and that have driven the discovery of associated biomarkers: neurotrophic, neurotransmitter, neuroendocrine, immune-inflammatory, nitrosative/oxidative stress, metabolic, and gut microbiota-brain axis. The book shows the most relevant research carried out in the last twelve years to develop predictive, diagnostic, theranostic or transdiagnostic models based on these biomarkers using the receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) analysis. Chapters also discuss how the literature has addressed the development and/or addition of new discriminatory biomarkers to achieve robust and successful results. The book is rounded out with a step-by-step explanation on how to work on the MetaboAnalyst platform, including the meaning of the chosen statistics and how to interpret them in the results obtained. This book is a useful resource for students and scientists involved in the discovery of biomarkers for psychiatric disorders and other diseases.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -A catastrophic phenomenon should not be considered a sudden and causeless event, but as a process whose characteristics are continuously changing throughout the entire previous period. This process manifests itself in the form of a trajectory of changes in time of the controlled parameter. This trajectory contains the information necessary for making decisions, both about the current degree of criticality of the system's state and about the moment it reaches its limit state.This monograph discusses the method of searching for such a moment for a controlled system. The methodology consists of two complementary and therefore mutually validating forecasting methods. The first method analyzes the trend of a time series compiled from the results of monitoring the behavior of a controlled object, and the second method analyzes the periodic component, which together with the trend forms the original time series.The monograph considers the following processes as such processes:wear of the cutting tool, leading to defects in the workpiece;development of a manufacturing defect leading to an accident under operating conditions or catastrophe of products that differ in the volume of their production;preparation for earthquakes and volcanic eruptions.

Achieving the EU's climate targets relies heavily on German family firms, given their pivotal role in the economy and substantial greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. First, we explore the measurement and accounting mechanisms of GHG emissions, leveraging data from German family firms across various industries. Second, we examine the management of goal tensions between environmental and economic objectives, focusing on how family firms can derive value from their emissions data. Third, with the upcoming Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) and the importance of communicating decarbonization efforts to stakeholders, we analyze the implications of this reporting mandate for family firms. Fourth, given the high investment demands of decarbonization measures, profitability remains a critical concern. Therefore, we also delve into the relationship between corporate environmental performance and corporate financial performance, highlighting the intersection of sustainability and long-term financial viability.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Introductory textbooks on algebraic geometry typically demand a strong mathematical background and can be challenging even for advanced students. While many excellent texts aim to bridge the gap to mastering this rich field, learners who are new to abstract algebra or who have never studied it through a geometric lens still often find the subject inaccessible. Beginning in Algebraic Geometry achieves a remarkable balance, offering a rigorous and detailed development of algebraic geometry that is nevertheless intended to be readable by students with only a first course in abstract algebra and linear algebra as prerequisites. Starting from the most fundamental properties of polynomials, the reader is guided one step at a time through affine, projective, and quasiprojective algebraic geometry, with complete justifications along the way of such foundational results as the Nullstellensatz and the Theorem on Fiber Dimensions.Several features of this text ensure that it is accessible to the widest possible audience. First, the electronic edition is freely available through Open Access. Furthermore, the authors have skillfully crafted a narrative-driven exposition that reinforces key algebraic concepts (such as quotient rings and modules) and introduces others (such as tensor products and integrality) by developing them within a geometric framework. Well-integrated examples and beautiful illustrations enhance the learning experience, and the writing balances rigor and intuition to maximize readability. Each chapter begins with clearly-stated learning objectives, providing students with a roadmap, and key definitions and results are highlighted for ease of reference. The exercises range from basic to intermediate in difficulty, ensuring sufficient practice without overwhelming the learner. This textbook is suitable for both classroom instruction and independent learners, and it serves as an excellent entry point into the more advanced texts on algebraic geometry.
