Festschrift In Honor Of Rogerio Cerqueira Leite
This volume will contain contributions from researchers who have been associated with Professor Leite's long career in science and science management. After an extremely successful career as a research physicist at Bell Labs, Professor Leite returned to Brazil, where he was instrumental in founding the Institute of Physics of the State University of Campinas. His record in research and scientific leadership, together with his concern with social issues related to Science and Technology, has made him one of the most respected voices of the Brazilian scientific community.The contributions in this volume are centered around Optical Properties of Condensed Matter. However, given the broad spectrum of Professor Leite's activities, it is natural that some authors have contributed papers on other fields.
Industrial Policy, Technology, and International Bargaining
This book suggests an innovative approach to understanding the sources of industrial policy and technological development. The conceptual sections address long-standing debates over the nature of the state and ruling coalitions, the political power of private actors, the process of international bargaining, and the determinants of technological change in the industrializing world. The empirical study constitutes the first book-length comparison of the Argentine and Brazilian nuclear programs, using a multidisciplinary approach that ranges from the broad macropolitical to the most specific microeconomic. Finally, the book provides a perspective on the nuclear sector in industrializing states that the more typical concentration on strategic aspects has obscured.
Sustainable Freedom?
This book, conceived in the 2010s, demonstrates that the thesis of renewable energy prevailed. Despite still having a long way to go, after the epic battle between the forces of maintaining fossil fuels in the energy market in Brazil and in the U.S. and the favorable winds of energy and renewable energy infrastructure projects, renewables advanced quickly and are here to stay, whether we like it or not. Renewable energy developments that have taken place in the past decade (from 2010 when this book was conceived to 2020) shaped the way we humans function in society. In this book, the author highlights the beginning of the history of the oil industry in Brazil and oil in the US and the bold a...
O medo da energia nuclear – Energia nuclear, segurança e medo
O texto procura entender o medo da energia nuclear. O medo seria manipulado por empresas de outras fontes de energia? E por quais meios: ambientalismo ou mídia? As fontes de investigação foram arquivos de mídia uma vez que a segurança dos reatores para eletricidade é um fato científico e tecnológico.
