The Spatial Dimension of Risk

  • Type: Book
  • -
  • Published: 2012-11-27

  • Publisher: Routledge

Through its exploration of the spatial dimension of risk, this book offers a brand new approach to theorizing risk, and significant improvements in how to manage, tolerate and take risks. A broad range of risks are examined, including natural hazards, climate change, political violence, and state failure. Case studies range from the Congo to Central Asia, from tsunami in Japan and civil war affected areas in Sri Lanka to avalanche hazards in Austria. In each of these cases, the authors examine the importance and role of space in the causes and differentiation of risk, in how we can conceptualize risk from a spatial perspective and in the relevance of space and locality for risk governance. This new approach – endorsed by Ragnar Löfstedt and Ortwin Renn, two of the world's leading and most prolific risk analysts – is essential reading for those charged with studying, anticipating and managing risks.

Fourier Restriction for Hypersurfaces in Three Dimensions and Newton Polyhedra (AM-194)

This is the first book to present a complete characterization of Stein-Tomas type Fourier restriction estimates for large classes of smooth hypersurfaces in three dimensions, including all real-analytic hypersurfaces. The range of Lebesgue spaces for which these estimates are valid is described in terms of Newton polyhedra associated to the given surface. Isroil Ikromov and Detlef Müller begin with Elias M. Stein's concept of Fourier restriction and some relations between the decay of the Fourier transform of the surface measure and Stein-Tomas type restriction estimates. Varchenko's ideas relating Fourier decay to associated Newton polyhedra are briefly explained, particularly the concept ...

Von Dir, von Mir, für Dich

Diese Sammlung meines Vaters soll Erinnerungen wecken, zum Nachdenken anregen, Frohlichkeit hervorrufen und eine Danksagung an einen wertvollen Menschen sein. Fur jeden soll es verdeutlichen, wie wertvoll die Familie und wie wichtig die Liebe ist. Ohne Liebe kann man nicht glucklich werden und ohne Liebe wird man einsam. Mit menschlicher Fantasie und von Eindrucken gepragt, schreibt mein Vater in den 70er/80er Jahren alles was ihm in den Sinn kommt und entdeckt seine Leidenschaft zum Schreiben. Fur alle die ihn kannten ist es eine Uberraschung, fur alle die ihn nie kennenlernen konnten eine Bereicherung."

Max Weber

The most profound and enduring social theorist of sociology's classical period, Max Weber speaks as cogently to concerns of the new century as he did to those of the past. In Max Weber and the New Century, Alan Sica demonstrated Weber's preeminent position and lasting vitality within social theory by applying his ideas to a broad range of topics of contemporary concern. Max Weber: A Comprehensive Bibliography is a companion volume that offers some 4,600 bibliographic listings of work on Weber, making it the most complete guide to the literature in English and a testament to the continued vitality of Weber's thought. Sica's work supersedes all previous bibliographical efforts covering the Web...
