Material Nation
A consumer history of Italy from unification in the 19th century to the present day, combining economic and cultural history with a vivid narrative style.
The Edge of the Plain: How Borders Make and Break Our World
A wide-ranging journey through the history of borders and an exploration of their role in shaping our world today. Since the earliest known marker denoting the edge of one land and the beginning of the next—a stone column inscribed with Sumerian cuneiform—borders have been imagined, mapped, moved, and fought over. In The Edge of the Plain, James Crawford skillfully blends history, travel writing, and reportage to trace these borderlines throughout history and across the globe. What happens on the ground when we impose lines on a map that contradict how humans have always lived—and moved? Crawford confronts that question from bloody territorial disputes in Mesopotamia, to the Sápmi lan...
Social Justice in Twentieth-Century Europe
Social justice has returned to the heart of political debate in present-day Europe. But what does it mean in different national histories and political regimes, and how has this changed over time? This book provides the first historical account of the evolution of notions of social justice across Europe since the late nineteenth century. Written by an international team of leading historians, the book analyses the often-divergent ways in which political movements, state institutions, intellectual groups, and social organisations have understood and sought to achieve social justice. Conceived as an emphatically European analysis covering both the eastern and western halves of the continent, Social Justice in Twentieth-Century Europe demonstrates that no political movement ever held exclusive ownership of the meaning of social justice. Conversely, its definition has always been strongly contested, between those who would define it in terms of equality of conditions, or of opportunity; the security provided by state authority, or the freedom of personal initiative; the individual rights of a liberal order, or the social solidarities of class, nation, confession, or Volk.
The Shaping of Tuscany
This book shows how the seemingly immutable Tuscan landscape was largely shaped by modern conflicts over economic resources and cultural meanings.
New Developments in Adsorption/Separation of Small Molecules by Zeolites
This volume compiles and discusses the fundamental and multidisciplinary knowledge on adsorption and separation processes using zeolites as adsorbents. Over the last decade, a large amount of research has been carried out for the development of zeolites as adsorbents. However, there is still a growing interest to increase the understanding of such selective adsorbents. Therefore, synthesis strategies and new approaches for developing new selective zeolite adsorbents for gas separation are presented in the first chapter. In addition, a chapter focused on adsorption characterization techniques of microporous materials is included. This will be helpful for advanced readers, since the new IUPAC recommendations for microporous characterization are not still widely employed by the zeolite community. Experimental and theoretical aspects of economically and environmentally relevant separations, which have been successfully carried out with zeolites, are discussed in detail in subsequent chapters. Finally, industrial zeolite based adsorption and separation processes as well as current perspectives for new zeolite based separations, and improvements of current technologies are presented.
Green Nanoarchitectonics
This book explores recent developments in the design and synthesis of greener nanomaterials and their eco-friendly utilization at the industrial scale. It defines key material descriptors required for their successful employment in different applications and discusses their cost-effective synthesis from natural extracts. The text provides comprehensive links between the design/fabrication of nanoparticles and their catalytic performance (activity, selectivity, and stability) in various applications. The topics covered include photocatalysis, wastewater treatment, environmental ecology, medical biology, biotechnology, sensors, cosmetics, remediation, energy, and phytoformulation.
Sustainable Material, Design, and Process

This book summarizes the latest advancements in textile dyes/effluent treatment technologies and evaluates the major physico-chemical and biological processes that are most popular among textile industrial wastewater treatment plants. The book examines recent advanced treatment options, including photocatalysis with the aid of nanotechnology, as well as advanced oxidation processes, with an emphasis on bioremediation metho...
Rethinking Fascism
This book takes up the stimuli of new international historiography, albeit focusing mainly on the two regimes that undoubtedly provided the model for Fascist movements in Europe, namely the Italian and the German. Starting with a historiographical assessment of the international situation, vis-à-vis studies on Fascism and National Socialism, and then concentrate on certain aspects that are essential to any study of the two dictatorships, namely the complex relationships with their respective societies, the figures of the two dictators and the role of violence. This volume reaches beyond the time-frame encompassing Fascism and National Socialism experiences, directing the attention also towa...
