Towards a Sustainable Urban Environment
The aims of this discussion paper are to improve understanding of the issue of sustainable development in the context of the urban environment in Rio, to disseminate the results of the rapid diagnostic explored in the case study, to help researchers of urban environmental issues in Brazil consolidate their work, to improve the mechanisms for transferring the findings from research into urban environmental management, and to define better ways of disseminating research results. The volume discusses the vulnerability of Rio de Janeiro to environmental degradation and explores several historical antecedents. The papers which have been contributed to this volume have been grouped around seven ma...

Coastal Zone '91
Coastal Zone '91 is the seventh in a series of biennial multidisciplinary symposia on comprehensive coastal and ocean management. The papers included in this proceedings review technical knowledge and current practice for the improvement of planning, environmental considerations, design, development, and conservation actions related to coasts, wetlands, and oceans. These topics are addressed from different points of view: engineering and science; data gathering and monitoring; legal, regulatory and political aspects of coastal management; planning, conservation and development; and public information and citizen participation. This proceedings will help to diffuse technical knowledge and current practice for the improvement of planning, design, development and conservation actions relating to our coasts and oceans.
Liberation against Entitlement
Christianity and politics cannot and should not be divided. But in times of deep social division, how do Christians make political choices that aim to build a society of justice and peace, where wholeness and unity reign? With special reference to two apparently very different contexts, Brazil and the Czech Republic, this book delves into this question, suggesting that behind a clash of political populisms, there is a deeper theological conflict. Grace, the action of God in the world, is understood by some as material reward for their giving, and thus as an entitlement to goods, financial rewards, or narrow national interests. For others, grace is a gift of God that always goes beyond any attempt to possess it and enables attention to the other, especially the other who is poor, excluded, and oppressed. What this means concretely is discussed through a close reading of Pope Francis’s Fratelli Tutti. Another world is possible, and this book sets out a vision of what it will look like.
Fungi of Antarctica
This book focuses on the fungi found in one of the most pristine regions on Earth: Antarctica. It discusses the fungal occurrence in all substrates of the region, including soil, seawater, lake and marine sediments, rocks, ice, and snow. It also addresses the impact of climate changes on these organisms, the genomic techniques developed to study them, and how a number of compounds, such as antibiotics and enzymes, produced by the Antarctic fungi can be used in medicine, agriculture and the chemical industry.
