¿Cómo es el joven de estos tiempos?, se preguntan algunos, tras la influencia que ejerce esta etapa en el comportamiento humano, matizada por los constantes cambios económicos y sociales del país. Investigar la juventud es atractivo para muchos, por ser un grupo social determinante en la sociedad; pero no es solo la moda, los gustos, la educación o las inquietudes, lo que posibilita conocerla con profundidad. Es necesario tener una mirada desde las ciencias sociales, que permita apreciar mejor las realidades del ámbito donde conviven, reflexionar, dar respuestas y, por qué no, orientarlos en la vida cotidiana. Es ineludible la lectura de esta segunda edición actualizada. A pesar de estar dirigida a los que investigan la juventud, no deja de ser interesante para los que deseen conocerla desde otra perspectiva. Es importante la compilación que regala este colectivo de autores, el cual, mediante sus exposiciones, demuestra que sobre ellos, los jóvenes y sus vivencias, hay una realidad que mostrar.
Film festivals during the Cold War were fraught with the political and social tensions that dominated the world at the time. While film was becoming an increasingly powerful medium, the European festivals in particular established themselves as showcases for filmmakers and their perceptions of reality. At the same time, their prestigious, international character attracted the interest of states and private players. The history of these festivals thus sheds light not only on the films they made available to various publics, but on the cultural policies and political processes that informed their operations. Presenting new research by an international group of younger scholars, Cultural Transfer and Political Conflicts critically investigates postwar history in the context of film festivals reconstructing not only their social background and international dispensation, but also their centrality for cultural transfers between the East, the West and the South during the Cold War.

From the very early days human beings depend on animals and animal products for food and other requirements. In dairy and poultry farms high yielding animals are reared. These high yielding animals are produced by hybridization experiments. Previously the animals were developed basing on unscientific methods. Before the discovery of principles of heredity human beings have selected the animals with required characters and learned to develop the plants having the selected characters. This phenomenon is called Artificial selection. However, an increased knowledge of biology, especially genetics, has helped in improving the quality of animals and animal products as per the human requirements. T...
