Papeles secretos
La dimensión sustancial que anima este libro presupone la inseparabilidad de todos los procesos contemporáneos. A mayor sofisticación de los fenómenos –y vaya si el affaire WikiLeaks es sofisticado–, mayor interrelación y mutua implicación de las fuerzas desplegadas en el mundo global; este es, principalmente, uno de los nudos conceptuales de la globalización. Por ello, lo que aquí encontrará quien despliegue estas páginas serán viejas certezas devueltas como preguntas: la disponibilidad de la información en tanto utopía garante del ejercicio democrático; los incuestionables derechos de la comunicación; el papel del secreto en la gestión de la información de los estados modernos; la figura del periodista y el rol de los periódicos; la ilusión de las panaceas tecnológicas y de las prácticas colaborativas en la red como mecanismos de conquistas de autonomía ciudadana. Éstos son apenas algunos planos de corte para acercarse a la mayor filtración de información confidencial producida por los estados y difundida en el marco de la convergencia mediática y tecnológica.
Play Among Books
How does coding change the way we think about architecture? This question opens up an important research perspective. In this book, Miro Roman and his AI Alice_ch3n81 develop a playful scenario in which they propose coding as the new literacy of information. They convey knowledge in the form of a project model that links the fields of architecture and information through two interwoven narrative strands in an “infinite flow” of real books. Focusing on the intersection of information technology and architectural formulation, the authors create an evolving intellectual reflection on digital architecture and computer science.
A People Betrayed
Events in Rwanda in 1994 mark a landmark in the history of modern genocide. Up to one million people were killed in a planned public and political campaign. In the face of indisputable evidence, the Security Council of the United Nations failed to respond. In this classic of investigative journalism, Linda Melvern tells the compelling story of what happened. She holds governments to account, showing how individuals could have prevented what was happening and didn't do so. The book also reveals the unrecognised heroism of those who stayed on during the genocide, volunteer peacekeepers and those who ran emergency medical care. Fifteen years on, this new edition examines the ongoing impact of the 1948 Genocide Convention and the shock waves Rwanda caused around the world. Based on fresh interviews with key players and newly-released documents, A People Betrayed is a shocking indictment of the way Rwanda is and was forgotten and how today it is remembered in the West.
Negotiating Reconciliation in Peacemaking
This book offers a unique approach to reconciliation as a matter for negotiation, bringing together two bodies of theory in order to offer insights into resolving conflicts and achieving lasting peace. It argues that reconciliation should not be simply accepted as an ‘agreed-upon norm’ within peacemaking processes, but should receive serious attention from belligerents and peace-brokers seeking to end violent conflicts through negotiation. The book explores different meanings the term ‘reconciliation’ might hold for parties in conflict - the end of overt hostilities, a transformation in the quality of relations between warring groups, a vehicle of accountability and punishment of hum...

Julian Assange - WikiLeaks
JULIAN ASSANGE: THE FIRST TRUE HERO OF THE INTERNET AGE This unauthorized full-length biography is pro-Assange overall. It is a sympathetic portrait of a flawed-hero figure fearlessly committed to the freedom of information. On December 7th, 2010, Julian Assange was arrested in London, England. He has been held in custody, charged with the sexual assault of two Swedish women. But a far bigger picture surrounds Assange. With Julian Assange - Wikileaks: Warrior for Truth, authors Valerie Guichaoua and Sophie Radermecker present a complete portrait of this mysterious character. They have traced his steps all over the world (the United States, Australia, Iceland, the UK, Belgium, Switzerland and Sweden) gathering exclusive information and interviews on his past life, his trouble with the law, but also on WikiLeaks: how it works and the controversy surrounding it. In the process, Valérie and Sophie reveal the questionable motivations of the two Swedish women and the inconsistencies in their accusations. Julian Assange - Wikileaks: Warrior for Truth is the defense that Julian Assange himself could not have written.

Pression démographique et changement social au Kenya
Les hautes terres kenyanes ont connu à la fin du XX` siècle une densification de la population sans précédent dans le monde. Dans la région très fertile de Kisii, les densités humaines sont passées de 260 hab/km2 en 1962 à 711 hab/km2 en 1999 ! Cet ouvrage montre de quelle manière une société s'adapte à la raréfaction des ressources dans un contexte historique mouvementé. Le Kenya a en effet traversé dans les années 1990 et encore au début de 2008, plusieurs vagues de conflits, décrits comme ethniques dans les médias, qui ont pesé lourdement sur la vie quotidienne et touché de larges secteurs de la société. Ce livre montre les changements progressifs liés à l'évolu...
Microbial Source Tracking: Methods, Applications, and Case Studies
Understanding the origin of fecal pollution is essential in assessing potential health risks as well as for determining the actions necessary to remediate the quality of waters contaminated by fecal matter. As a result, microbial source tracking (MST) has emerged as a field that has evolved and diversified rapidly since the first approaches were described only a decade ago. In response to the emergence of MST, there have been three large multi-laboratory method comparison studies (two in the US and one in Europe), plus numerous workshops, book chapters, and review articles dedicated to synthesizing information on the topic. Furthermore, a federal (USEPA) guide document describing the uses an...
