The Right in the Americas

The Right in the Americas discusses the origins, development, and current state of conservative and right-wing movements in ten countries in the Americas. The growth of the right is one of the most important issues of the moment in global politics. Within the context of democracy erosion, rejection of traditional politics, and economic uncertainty, right and extreme-right actors are capable of offering misguided answers and hope to a significant part of a country’s population, who will trust their promises and bring them to power with their vote. This dynamic has repeated itself in an astonishingly consistent pattern across the Americas. This book analyses eight Latin American countries—...

Lectures on Nonlinear Dynamics

This book presents a compilation of lectures delivered at the São Paulo School of Advanced Sciences on Nonlinear Dynamics, categorized into four groups: parametric resonance, nonlinear modal analysis and model reduction, synchronization, and strongly nonlinear dynamics. Interwoven seamlessly, these groups cover a wide range of topics, from fundamental concepts to practical applications, catering to both introductory and advanced readers. The first group, consisting of chapters 1 and 2, serves as an introduction to the theory of parametric resonance and the dynamics of parametrically excited slender structures. Chapters 3, 4, and 5 form the second group, offering insights into normal forms, ...

  • Publisher: Springer

The book discusses a vital problem of diagnostics and treatment of peritoneal malignancies, pseudomyxoma and malignant mesothelioma, which is still insufficiently developed. Compared to similar, earlier editions, this volume importantly presents cutting-edge approaches and up-to-date diagnostic methods.The authors place special emphasis on morphological/pathological characteristics of these tumors involving immunodiagnostic techniques, and a chapter on the immunotherapy of mesothelioma and pseudomyxoma will be of special interest to readers.Fully illustrated, the book will present an algorithm of diagnostics and complex treatment of these tumors.

Water, Energy, Food and People Across the Global South

  • Type: Book
  • -
  • Published: 2017-10-16
  • -
  • Publisher: Springer

This collection critically engages the resource use nexus. Clearly, a nexus-approach to resource policy, planning and practice is essential if sustainable development goals are to be met. In particular, in an era of climate change, an integrated approach to water, energy and agriculture is imperative. Agriculture accounts for 70% of global water withdrawals, food production accounts for 30% of global energy use and a rising global population requires more of everything. As shown in this collection, scholars of resource development, governance and management are ‘nexus sensitive’, utilizing a sort of ‘nexus sensibility’ in their work as it focuses on the needs of people particularly, but not only, in the global South. Importantly, a nexus-approach presents academics and practitioners with a discursive space in which to shape policy through research, to deepen and improve understandings of the interconnections and impacts of particular types of resource use, and to critically reflect on actions taken in the name of the ‘nexus’.

Water Justice and Groundwater Subsidies in India

  • Categories: Law

This book examines the impact of water-related subsidies on social and distributive equity and environmental sustainability in groundwater access and regulation in India. This book argues that adopting a water justice framework is essential to ensure equitable and sustainable access to and regulation of groundwater by balancing anthropogenic and ecological water needs. The inherent inequity resulting from property rights-controlled groundwater access gets widened by the social, political, and economic factors determining the subsidy beneficiaries. Adopting a socio-legal approach, this book draws on two contrasting case studies in India: Kerala, a water-secure state, and Rajasthan, an arid st...

Plant-Virus Interactions

This detailed volume provides practical guidance on techniques in plant-virus interaction research, from targeting specific molecular interactions within the virus-host interactome to the identification of the complete virus-host protein-protein interaction network. After chapters on acquiring the necessary molecular tools, the book continues with biochemical and genetic approaches to confirming protein-protein interactions both in vivo and in vitro, procedures and protocols for assessing replication, translation, viral genome movement, and insect transmission, as well as techniques for detecting multiple molecular interactions between the host and the virus and monitoring immune hubs.
