Social and Physical Ecologies for Child Resilience: Wisdom from Asia and Africa

Since Emmy Werner and her team discovered on the Hawaiian island of Kauai the “invincible” children who fared well despite exposure to significant household risks, there has been proliferating research on child resilience as a positive response to adverse conditions. The past five decades have seen significant advancements in, and diverse approaches to understanding challenges, facilitative factors, and positive outcomes in the resilience process that involve children. Despite existing and continuously emerging modelings and framings, there appears a common understanding that child resilience unfolds through the interactions between individuals and the environments surrounding them. This Research Topic, therefore, takes an ecological approach to child resilience. While ecologies constitute social spaces that nurture child resilience, they can also refer to the “physical” environments surrounding children. There has been robust empirical evidence suggesting resilience is a shared capacity of the individual and the social ecology (e.g., families, schools, and communities), and more recently of the individual and the physical ecology (e.g., the built or natural environment).

Proceedings of the 3rd International Conference on Digital Economy and Computer Application (DECA 2023)

This is an open access book. The 3rd International Conference on Digital Economy and Computer Applications (DECA 2023) will be held on September 22–24, 2023 in Shanghai, China. Digital economy is the main economic form after agricultural economy and industrial economy. It takes data resources as the key element, modern information network as the main carrier, and the integration and application of information and communication technology and all-factor digital transformation as the important driving force to promote a new economic form that is more unified in fairness and efficiency. The essence of digital economy is informationization. Informatization is a social and economic process caus...

International Conference on Manufacturing Automation

The proceedings of the fourth ICMA in 2004 represent a huge contribution to research in this area. Everyone attending the conference was asked to submit their papers electronically which meant that 100 top quality papers from no less that 10 different countries contributed to the theme of the conference.

Tectonics

This book is devoted to different aspects of tectonic researches. New results and interpretations are presented here for diverse tectonic settings. Most of the chapters include up-to-date materials of detailed geological investigations, often combined with geophysical data, which can help understand more clearly the essence of mechanisms of different tectonic processes. Some chapters are devoted to the tectonic evolution of regions (East Antarctica, East Kazakhstan, Mongolo-Okhotsk orogenic belt), and others have dealt with the different aspects of tectonic events: influence of detachment structural deformation on pore structure evolution in shales, evolution of drainage in response to brittle-ductile dynamics and surface processes, soft sediment deformation structures triggered by the modern earthquakes, and post-opening deformation history of the Japan Sea back-arc basin.
