Dimensiones del conflicto: resistencia, violencia y policía en el mundo urbano ofrece una galería de expresiones del conflicto y de formas de recomposición del mismo en contextos diversos, entre el Antiguo Régimen y las sociedades liberales. La perspectiva transfronteriza y comparativa que se adopta en esta obra ofrece una panorámica contrastada sobre las concreciones del conflicto y el orden, sobre los factores, discursos, imaginarios y actores que participaron en los procesos de cambio histórico a través de la resistencia, la violencia y la policía en los espacios urbanos de este amplio periodo histórico. Con un enfoque multidisciplinar, este libro se abre, así, a una reflexión global sobre el conflicto, la disciplina y la paz pública en las ciudades; considera un amplio encuadre espacial, que conecta experiencias europeas y otras de Asia y América y, al mismo tiempo, ofrece una panorámica diacrónica, que analiza las transiciones hacia la modernidad.

Decision support systems (DSS) are widely touted for their effectiveness in aiding decision making, particularly across a wide and diverse range of industries including healthcare, business, and engineering applications. The concepts, principles, and theories of enhanced decision making are essential points of research as well as the exact methods, tools, and technologies being implemented in these industries.

Based on the first complete survey of the over 4,000 surviving Latin charters from the period, it is an essay in the archaeology and biography of text: part one concerns materiality, tracing the lifecycle of charters from initiation and composition to preservation and reuse, while part two addresses connectivity, delineating a network of texts through painstaking id...
Galician audio/visual culture has experienced an unprecedented period of growth following the process of political and cultural devolution in post-Franco Spain. This creative explosion has occurred in a productive dialogue with global currents and with considerable projection beyond the geopolitical boundaries of the nation and the state, but these seismic changes are only beginning to be the subject of attention of cultural and media studies. This book examines contemporary audio/visual production in Galicia as privileged channels through which modern Galician cultural identities have been imagined, constructed and consumed, both at home and abroad. The cultural redefinition of Galicia in t...
