Encyclopedia of Criminal Activities and the Deep Web
As society continues to rely heavily on technological tools for facilitating business, e-commerce, banking, and communication, among other applications, there has been a significant rise in criminals seeking to exploit these tools for their nefarious gain. Countries all over the world are seeing substantial increases in identity theft and cyberattacks, as well as illicit transactions, including drug trafficking and human trafficking, being made through the dark web internet. Sex offenders and murderers explore unconventional methods of finding and contacting their victims through Facebook, Instagram, popular dating sites, etc., while pedophiles rely on these channels to obtain information an...
Research Anthology on Concepts, Applications, and Challenges of FinTech
FinTech, an abbreviated term for financial technology, is a digital revolution changing the way banking and financial services are being used both by individuals and businesses. As these changes continue to take place, the financial industry is focused on technological innovation and feeding into this digital revolution to better serve consumers who are looking for easier ways to invest, transfer money, use banking services, and more. FinTech is increasing accessibility to financial services, automating these services, expanding financial options, and enabling online payments and banking. While the benefits are being continually seen and this technology is becoming more widely accepted, ther...
The Spectacular Favela
"This book examines the political economy of violence in the Rio de Janeiro favela of Rocinha. Based on over two years of research and residence in the community, it offers an ethnographic account of how entangled forms of violence become essential forces shaping everyday social relations in the favela. The first part of the book shows how armed actors--drug traffickers and police--use spectacle to perform power. Yet despite the prevalence of physical violence, the favela has itself become a valuable global brand, consumed in disembodied fashion through media and in embodied fashion through tourism. Exploring media and favela tourism, the second part of the book demonstrates how the social relationships that arise from ongoing favela violence have a direct relationship to the market economy"--Provided by publisher.
Inovação na Amazônia: debates sobre tecnologia, desenvolvimento e empreendedorismo
Este projeto literário, como uma continuidade em três volumes, pretende contribuir para uma determinada missão do ambiente científico-tecnológico, em seus vários adensamentos institucionais, que passa por propor um diálogo eclético, tolerante e pluralista entre os campos do conhecimento – ambos interdisciplinares – do Desenvolvimento Regional, por um lado, e por outro, da Inovação Tecnológica, em prol de uma causa comum, que é o aprimoramento, através de uma oferta atualizada de conhecimentos, das formulações técnicas para dar suporte ao processo de melhoria das condições de vida, oportunidade, distribuição isonômica e competitividade entre os diferentes segmentos e classes sociais.
Inovação na Amazônia
"Projetamos os debates deste livro em torno de duas frentes de contribuição objetivas. A primeira busca refletir sobre como uma região do mundo e do Brasil como a amazônica, considerando ainda as heterogêneas regiões que a constituem, podem ter a sua expectativa particular sobre o desenvolvimento regional do reconhecimento e da valorização das estratégias, de instituições e de problemas preocupados com a Ciência & Tecnologia como instrumentalidades. Por sua vez, a segunda procura apresentar exemplos de iniciativas desenvolvidas - e, portanto, em vias de desenvolvimento - na região, visando demonstrar que há conhecimento, capturado ou não pela lente acadêmica, capaz de responder de forma respectiva e apropriada às questões regionais."
A Mathematical Modeling Approach from Nonlinear Dynamics to Complex Systems
This book collects recent developments in nonlinear and complex systems. It provides up-to-date theoretic developments and new techniques based on a nonlinear dynamical systems approach that can be used to model and understand complex behavior in nonlinear dynamical systems. It covers symmetry groups, conservation laws, risk reduction management, barriers in Hamiltonian systems, and synchronization and chaotic transient. Illustrating mathematical modeling applications to nonlinear physics and nonlinear engineering, the book is ideal for academic and industrial researchers concerned with machinery and controls, manufacturing, and controls. · Introduces new concepts for understanding and modeling complex systems; · Explains risk reduction management in complex systems; · Examines the symmetry group approach to understanding complex systems; · Illustrates the relation between transient chaos and crises.
Bridging Fluid Borders
Interweaving rich ethnographic descriptions with an innovative theoretical approach, this book explores and unsettles conventional maps and understandings of Europe and the Americas. Through an examination of the recently inaugurated cross-border bridge between France’s overseas department of French Guiana and Brazil’s northern state of Amapá, which effectively acts as a one-way street and serves to perpetuate inequalities in a historically deeply entangled region, it foregrounds the ways in which borderland inhabitants such as indigenous women, illegalised migrants, and local politicians deal with these inequalities and the increasingly closed Amazonian border in everyday life. A study that challenges the coloniality of memory, this volume shows how the borderland along and across the Oyapock River, far from being the hinterland of France and Brazil, in fact illuminates entangled histories and their concomitant inequalities on a large scale. As such, it will appeal to scholars of sociology and border studies with interests in postcolonialism, memory, and inequality.
