This book provides an account of work in the Schumpeterian and evolutionary tradition of industrial dynamics and the evolution of industries. It is shown that over time industries evolve and change their structure. In this dynamic process, change is affected and sometimes constraint by many factors, including knowledge and technologies, the capabilities and incentives of actors, new products and processes, and institutions.
En su extensa introducción, la obra, define el campo en sus diversas dimensiones: la función productiva de la educación, el valor de la educación para proporcionar a los individuos acceso a bienes y servicios privados y sociales, la distribución de la educación para satisfacer la demanda social, la relación de la educación con la acumulación de capital a través de su contribución a la productividad y al cambio tecnológico y, por tanto, al crecimiento económico, y la distribución de los recursos para la educación entre los distintos grupos de la sociedad, con sus implicaciones para el acceso al poder, el ingreso y la riqueza. También ofrece una extensa historia del campo en Argentina, mostrando cómo ha crecido desde sus modestos orígenes en los sesentas hasta un inventario hoy de más de mil artículos de revistas, libros y estudios en todas las dimensiones del campo. La contribución es sobresaliente tanto desde el punto de vista histórico como metodológico, evaluando las influencias educativas, económicas y políticas desde dentro de Argentina y desde el extranjero.
The Bahía Blanca Estuary is one of the largest coastal systems in Atlantic South America. This mesotidal estuary, situated in a sharp transition between humid subtropical and semiarid climates, has a unique combination of large interannual climatic variations. The estuarine area encompasses roughly 2300 square kilometers and is composed of wide expanses of intertidal flats, salt marshes, and emerged islands, which create intricate landscape patterns. Natural environments in the estuary sustain a high concentration of marine and terrestrial species, including endemic, threatened, and endangered fish and shorebirds. Puerto Cuatreros, in the inner zone of the estuary, hosts a permanent marine ...
This book integrates a variety of issues such as regional settings of productivity and nutrient cycling; plankton of coastal and shelf systems; plankton, climate change and human-induced changes; harmful algae and their impacts; and gelatinous zooplankton. This book explores the intriguing marine plankton communities of the SWA region of South America encompassing low to high latitude environments, framed by a complex hydrographic background and global climate change. This vast and iconic region has been largely under-recognized and under-studied. However, in recent years a strong interest has emerged along with the acknowledgment of its high biological productivity. The book concludes by di...
