Towards a Sustainable Bioeconomy: Principles, Challenges and Perspectives

  • Type: Book
  • -
  • Published: 2018-01-19

  • Publisher: Springer

This book gathers contributions from scientists and industry representatives on achieving a sustainable bioeconomy. It also covers the social sciences, economics, business, education and the environmental sciences. There is an urgent need to optimise and maximise the use of biological resources, so that primary production and processing systems can generate more food, fibre and other bio-based products with less environmental impacts and lower greenhouse gas emissions. In other words, we need a “sustainable bioeconomy” – a term that encompasses the sustainable production of renewable resources from land, fisheries and aquaculture environments and their conversion into food, feed, fibre...

Brazilian Evangelicalism in the Twenty-First Century

  • Type: Book
  • -
  • Published: 2019-05-09
  • -
  • Publisher: Springer

Over the past fifty years Brazil’s evangelical community has increased from five to twenty-five percent of the population. This volume’s authors use statistical overview, historical narrative, personal anecdote, social-scientific analysis, and theological inquiry to map out this emerging landscape. The book’s thematic center pivots on the question of how Brazilian evangelicals are exerting their presence and effecting change in the public life of the nation. Rather than fixing its focus on the interior life of Brazilian evangelicals and their congregations, the book’s attention is directed toward social expression: the ways in which Brazilian evangelicals are present and active in the common life of the nation.

Ancestral Knowledges and Postcoloniality in Contemporary Ecuador

In light of an unprecedented constitutional acknowledgement of diverse epistemologies and stipulation making the protection and advancement of so-called 'ancestral knowledges' a duty of the state, this research provides an analysis of the uptake of historically subalternised knowledges by the state during the government of Rafael Correa (2007-2017), as well as of the strive for epistemic justice by peoples and nationalities' organisations in the context of struggles for social change, decolonisation, and self-determination. On the basis of rich empirical material, the analysis traces state discourses and practices and mechanisms to govern 'ancestral knowledges' in the framework of the govern...

O poder dos 10 mandamentos

Num tempo em que a liberdade e a individualidade têm sido fortemente defendidas, toda e qualquer regra, por mais benéfica que seja, é tida como uma prisão. Os Dez Mandamentos, por exemplo, são vistos por muitos como um conjunto de proibições, criadas por um Deus carrasco e dominador. O que William Douglas revela nesta obra é uma forma diferente de olhar para a lista divina, sob um ponto de vista não só positivo, mas que demonstra o caráter amoroso de Deus. E o autor vai além, demonstrando que a obediência aos Dez Mandamentos abre as portas para relacionamentos saudáveis, equilíbrio e uma vida de paz e contentamento.
