A Research Agenda for Environmental Management
The understanding of global environmental management problems is best achieved through transdisciplinary research lenses that combine scientific and other sector (industry, government, etc.) tools and perspectives. However, developing effective research teams that cross such boundaries is difficult. This book demonstrates the importance of transdisciplinarity, describes challenges to such teamwork, and provides solutions for overcoming these challenges. It includes case studies of transdisciplinary teamwork, showing how these solutions have helped groups to develop better understandings of environmental problems and potential responses.
A Changing Environment for Human Security
Environmental change presents a new context and new opportunities for transformational change. This timely book will inspire new ways of understanding the relationship between environmental change and human security. A Changing Environment for Human Security: Transformative Approaches to Research, Policy and Action both supports and informs a call for new, transformative approaches to research, policy and action. The chapters in this book include critical analyses, case studies and reflections on contemporary environmental and social challenges, with a strong emphasis on those related to climate change. Human thoughts and actions have contributed to an environment of insecurity, manifested a...
Chaos in Transit Systems
This document is presented as one of the necessary conditions that must be met to obtain a Ph.D. degree in the Engineering Faculty at Universidad de los Andes. Its purpose is three fold: first, to serve as complementary reference work on what I know is a research topic which I, and other researchers, will be following in the near future: chaos in transit systems. Second, as a tool for me in order to present a coherent compendium of the work I have been advancing on the past three years; namely the study of simplistic models of a vehicle interacting with traffic lights. Finally, in the third place, to comply with one of the Ph.D. program requisites. Throughout the time I have invested in the Ph.D. program, I have participated in various research projects within the research group that I am part of. So far I have helped to develop a conceptual model for a research center in Colombia (56), contributed to a paper that discusses how variation can be a useful concept for management (26), and focused the effort of the last years into understanding the conditions under which a simple traffic model is subject to chaos (49). This document will focus on the most recent of those projects.

Medio ambiente y ordenación del territorio
El libro que me complace presentar es el resultado de la investigación "Medio ambiente y ordenación del territorio" que el Grupo de Investigación en Derecho del Medio Ambiente de la Universidad Externado de Colombia proyectó con el objetivo de identificar y estudiar los conceptos de planificación y plan, así como algunos ejercicios de ordenación del territorio y de planificación ambiental desarrollados en España y en Colombia, con el fin de identificar el marco jurídico y las políticas públicas que se han desarrollado en la materia, y verificar sus logros y dificultades. Antes de describir el contenido y la estructura del documento partimos por indicar que desde el punto de vista...
