South Africa’s Energy Transition: A Roadmap to a Decarbonised, Low-cost and Job-rich Future (Routledge Focus on Environment and Sustainability)
by Tobias Bischof-Niemz Terence CreamerSouth Africa’s energy transition has become a highly topical, emotive and politically contentious topic. Taking a systems perspective, this book offers an evidence-based roadmap for such a transition and debunks many of the myths raised about the risks of a renewable-energy-led electricity mix. Owing to its formidable solar and wind resources, South Africa has an almost unparalleled opportunity to turn solar photovoltaic and onshore wind generators into the country’s power generation workhorses – a role hitherto played by coal. This book shows that a renewables-led mix will not only provide the lowest cost, but will also create more jobs than any of the alternatives currently under consideration. In addition, it offers a glimpse of how South Africa’s low-cost and decarbonised electricity system can power a competitive industrial economy, an electric-mobility revolution and, in the long run, create new export opportunities. This book will be of great interest to energy industry practitioners, as well as students and scholars of energy policy and politics, environmental economics and sustainable development.
South Africa's Post-Apartheid Military: Lost in Transition and Transformation (Advanced Sciences and Technologies for Security Applications)
by Lindy HeineckenThis timely book examines how the South African National Defence Force has adapted to the country’s new security, political and social environment since 1994. In South Africa’s changed political state, how has civilian control of the military been implemented and what does this mean for ‘defence in a democracy’? This book presents an overview of the security environment, how the mission focus of the military has changed and the implications for force procurement, force preparation, force employment and force sustainability. The author addresses other issues, such as: · the effect of integrating former revolutionary soldiers into a professional armed force · the effect of affirmative action on meritocracy, recruitment and retention · military veterans, looking at the difficulties they face in reintegrating back into society and finding gainful employment · gender equality and mainstreaming · the rise of military unions and why a confrontational, instead of a more corporatist approach to labour relations has emerged · HIV/AIDS and the consequences this holds for the military in terms of its operational effectiveness. In closing, the author highlights key events that have caused the SANDF to become ‘lost in transition and transformation’, spelling out some lessons learned. The conclusions she draws are pertinent for the future of defence, security and civil-military relations of countries around the world.
South America’s Natural Wonders: Patagonia, Neuquén Basin, Atacama Desert, and Across the Andes (Geologic Tours of the World)
by Gary L. ProstThis book guides readers through the most iconic, geologically significant scenery in South America, points out features of interest, and describes how these features came to be. Starting in the glacial landscapes of southern Patagonia, this field trip guidebook examines the foothills of the Andes of western Argentina to understand its foreland deformation. Across the Andes, one observes deformation, volcanism, and mineral deposits associated with an onshore volcanic arc and uplift in the Atacama Desert of Chile. A transect across the Andes from Mendoza to Valparaiso follows in the footsteps of Darwin and, as an added bonus, explores the premier wine country around Mendoza, Argentina, and the Colchagua Valley, Chile. Features: • Clearly explains the geology of regions with an emphasis on landscape formation. • Lavishly illustrated with numerous colorful maps, diagrams, and photos of breathtaking landscapes and their geological features. • Describes the major geologic features of South America through the device of a geologic tour, making it an accessible read for those without any geologic training, as well as for professionals. • Written in easy-to-understand language, the author brings his own experience to readers who want to explore and understand geologic sites first-hand. South America’s Natural Wonders is an inviting text that gives individuals with no background in geology the opportunity to understand key geologic aspects of local landscapes. It also serves as a guide to undergraduate and graduate-level students taking courses in earth science programs, such as geology, geophysics, geochemistry, mining engineering, and petroleum engineering. Teachers of these courses can also use this book to better understand their local geologic environment and geography.
South Temple Street Landmarks: Salt Lake City’s First Historic District (Landmarks)
by Bim OliverFrom the earliest days of settlement, South Temple was Salt Lake's most prestigious street. In 1857, William Staines built the Devereaux House, Salt Lake's first of many mansions. The once-bustling Union Pacific Depot eventually found itself increasingly isolated. Downtown's "gleaming copper landmark" overcame numerous hurdles before its construction was finally finished, and the Steiner American Building helped usher in acceptance of Modernist architecture. Evolving to reflect its continued prominence, in 1975, the thoroughfare's core became the city's first local historic district, and in 1982, it made the National Register of Historic Places. Author and historian Bim Oliver celebrates the changing landmarks along these famous eighteen blocks.
Southeastern Arizona Mining Towns
by William AscarzaSoutheastern Arizona has one of the most diverse mining localities in the state. Towns such as Bisbee, Clifton, Globe, Miami, Ray, Silverbell, and Superior have earned reputations as premier metal producers that are most notably known for their copper. Other mining towns that have made their marks in the region include Dos Cabezas, Gleeson, Harshaw District, Helvetia, Patagonia District, Pearce, Ruby, and Tombstone. Mining in southeastern Arizona has significantly influenced the development of mines in northern Sonora, Mexico. The foundation of Mexico's largest copper mine in Cananea was financed by American capital, specifically under the direction of miners and investors from southeastern Arizona. Overall, the process of mining has established the economy of southeastern Arizona, making it a viable source of copper-related minerals in the 21st century's global market.
Southern Storm: The Tragedy Of Flight 242 (Air Disasters #2)
by Samme ChittumThe gripping true tale of a devastating plane crash, the investigation into its causes, and the race to prevent similar disasters in the future.On the afternoon of April 4, 1977, Georgia housewife Sadie Burkhalter Hurst looked out her front door to see a frantic stranger running toward her, his clothes ablaze, and behind him the mangled fuselage of a passenger plane that had just crashed in her yard. The plane, a Southern Airways DC-9-31, had been carrying eighty-one passengers and four crew members en route to Atlanta when it entered a massive thunderstorm cell that turned into a dangerous cocktail of rain, hail, and lightning. Forced down onto a highway, the plane cut a swath of devastation through the small town of New Hope, breaking apart and killing bystanders on the ground before coming to rest in Hurst's front yard. Ultimately, only twenty-two people would survive the crash of Flight 242, and urgent questions immediately arose. What caused the pilots to fly into the storm instead of away from it? Could the crash have been prevented? Southern Storm addresses these issues and many more, offering a fascinating insider's look at this dramatic disaster and the systemic overhauls that followed it.
Sovereign Skies: The Origins of American Civil Aviation Policy (Hagley Library Studies in Business, Technology, and Politics)
by Sean SeyerA pathbreaking history of the regulatory foundations of America's twentieth-century aerial preeminence.Today, the federal government possesses unparalleled authority over the atmosphere of the United States. Yet when the Wright Brothers inaugurated the air age on December 17, 1903, the sky was an unregulated frontier. As increasing numbers of aircraft threatened public safety in subsequent decades and World War I accentuated national security concerns about aviation, the need for government intervention became increasingly apparent. But where did authority over the airplane reside within America's federalist system? And what should US policy look like for a device that could readily travel over physical barriers and political borders?In Sovereign Skies, Sean Seyer provides a radically new understanding of the origins of American aviation policy in the first decades of the twentieth century. Drawing on the concept of mental models from cognitive science, regime theory from political science, and extensive archival sources, Seyer situates the development, spread, and institutionalization of a distinct American regulatory idea within its proper international context. He illustrates how a relatively small group of bureaucrats, military officers, industry leaders, and engineers drew upon previous regulatory schemes and international principles in their struggle to define government's relationship to the airplane. In so doing, he challenges the current domestic-centered narrative within the literature and delineates the central role of the airplane in the reinterpretation of federal power under the commerce clause. By placing the origins of aviation policy within a broader transnational context, Sovereign Skies highlights the influence of global regimes on US policy and demonstrates the need for continued engagement in world affairs. Filling a major gap in the historiography of aviation, it will be of interest to readers of aviation, diplomatic, and legal history, as well as regulatory policy and American political development.
Sovereign Wealth Funds, Local Content Policies and CSR: Developments in the Extractives Sector (CSR, Sustainability, Ethics & Governance)
by Eduardo G. Pereira Rochelle Spencer Jonathon W. MosesThis book explores three particular strategies in the extractives sector for creating shared wealth, increased labour opportunities and positive social, environmental and economic outcomes from corporate projects, namely: state wealth funds (SWF), local content policies (LCP) and corporate social responsibility (CSR) practices. Collectively, the chapters explore the associated experiences and challenges in different parts of the world with the view to inform equitable and sustainable development for the communities living adjacent to extractives sites and the wider society and environment. Examples of LCPs, SWFs and CSR practices from 12 jurisdictions with diverse experiences offer usefull insights. The book illuminates challenges and opportunities for sustainable development outcomes of the extractives sector. It reflects the need to take on board the lessons of these global experiences in order to improve outcomes for poverty reduction, inequality reduction and sustainable development.

Soviet Space Culture
by Eva Maurer Julia Richers Monica Ręthers Carmen ScheideStarting with the first man-made satellite 'Sputnik' in 1957 and culminating four years later with the first human in space, Yuri Gagarin, space became a new utopian horizon. This book explores the profound repercussions of the Soviet space exploration program on culture and everyday life in Eastern Europe, especially in the Soviet Union itself.
The Soviet Union and Communist China 1945-1950: The Arduous Road to the Alliance
by Dieter HeinzigDrawing on a wealth of new sources, this work documents the evolving relationship between Moscow and Peking in the twentieth century. Using newly available Russian and Chinese archival documents, memoirs written in the 1980s and 1990s, and interviews with high-ranking Soviet and Chinese eyewitnesses, the book provides the basis for a new interpretation of this relationship and a glimpse of previously unknown events that shaped the Sino-Soviet alliance. An appendix contains translated Chinese and Soviet documents - many of which are being published for the first time. The book focuses mainly on Communist China's relationship with Moscow after the conclusion of the treaty between the Soviet Union and Kuomingtang China in 1945, up until the signing of the treaty between Moscow and the Chinese Communist Party in 1950. It also looks at China's relationship with Moscow from 1920 to 1945, as well as developments from 1950 to the present. The author reevaluates existing sources and literature on the topic, and demonstrates that the alliance was reached despite disagreements and distrust on both sides and was not an inevitable conclusion. He also shows that the relationship between the two Communist parties was based on national interest politics, and not on similar ideological convictions.
Sowing Legume Seeds, Reaping Cash: A Renaissance within Communities in Sub-Saharan Africa
by Rajeev K. Varshney Essegbemon Akpo Christopher O. Ojiewo Lucky O. Omoigui Jean Claude RubyogoThis open access book shares impact stories – testimonies from various value chain actors who have been part of the Tropical Legumes (TL) projects, over the past twelve years. The Tropical Legumes projects led by ICRISAT in three parts (TLI, TLII and TLIII), constitute a major international initiative supported by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation (BMGF) and jointly implemented by the International Center for Tropical Agriculture (CIAT), International Institute of Tropical Agriculture (IITA) and National Agricultural Research Systems (NARS) partners from Sub-Saharan Africa and India. The project developed improved cultivars of common bean, cowpea, chickpea and groundnut (but also soya bean and pigeon pea cultivars in its initial phases) and delivers their seed to smallholders in BMGF-focus areas. It also strengthens the NARS and CGIAR's breeding programs and seed platforms to enhance their ability to deliver high and sustained outputs to smallholder farmers. The book compiles the experiences of a diversity of actors within the grain legume value chains, with a focus on groundnut and common beans in Tanzania and Uganda, groundnut and cowpea in Nigeria, and groundnut in Ghana. All stakeholders involved share their thoughts on being part of a decade-long development project family. National agricultural research institutes, knowledge brokering organizations, NGOs, public and private seed companies, agro-dealers, individual seed entrepreneurs, farm-implement makers, farmer cooperatives, farmer groups, individual men and women farmers, middlemen, processors, traders and consumers were all involved in this project, and as such this book provides valuable insights for development workers, technical staff, and project managers.
Sowing Seeds in the City
by Sally Brown Kristen Mcivor Elizabeth Hodges SnyderA majority of the world's population lives in cities. Urban areas have largely been disconnected from the processes associated with producing food. A broad range of community efforts have emerged to reconnect people in urban areas to fresh foods with expected benefits for public health. These efforts can be found in cities across the country and cross both economic and ethnic lines. They have been led by the non- scientific community and are best characterized as social movements. Expansion of agriculture to non- traditional areas including community or kitchen gardens in urban or peri- urban environments has the potential to provide a range of ecosystem services as well as reduce stressors on non- urban environments. These services/benefits include improved public health, improved human nutrition and diet, large-scale production of renewable resources, increased food security with less resilience on traditional agricultural landscapes and seascapes, enhanced ecosystem function in urban areas, and increased public appreciation for and understanding of ecosystem services.
Sowing Seeds in the Desert: Natural Farming, Global Restoration, and Ultimate Food Security
by null Masanobu Fukuoka"This is what all of humanity has to learn to do, whether it is in economic desert created by Wall Street, or an ecological desert created by globalized corporate agriculture."—Vandana Shiva, founder of Navdanya Research Foundation for Science Technology & EcologyThe earth is in great peril, due to the corporatization of agriculture, the rising climate crisis, and the ever-increasing levels of global poverty, starvation, and desertification on a massive scale. This present condition of global trauma is not &“natural,&” but a result of humanity&’s destructive actions. And, according to Masanobu Fukuoka, it is reversible. We need to change not only our methods of earth stewardship, but also the very way we think about the relationship between human beings and nature.Fukuoka grew up on a farm on the island of Shikoku in Japan. As a young man he worked as a customs inspector for plants going into and out of the country. This was in the 1930s when science seemed poised to create a new world of abundance and leisure, when people fully believed they could improve upon nature by applying scientific methods and thereby reap untold rewards. While working there, Fukuoka had an insight that changed his life forever. He returned to his home village and applied this insight to developing a revolutionary new way of farming that he believed would be of great benefit to society. This method, which he called &“natural farming,&” involved working with, not in opposition to, nature.Fukuoka&’s inspiring and internationally best-selling book, The One-Straw Revolution was first published in English in 1978. In this book, Fukuoka described his philosophy of natural farming and why he came to farm the way he did. One-Straw was a huge success in the West, and spoke directly to the growing movement of organic farmers and activists seeking a new way of life. For years after its publication, Fukuoka traveled around the world spreading his teachings and developing a devoted following of farmers seeking to get closer to the truth of nature.Sowing Seeds in the Desert, a summation of those years of travel and research, is Fukuoka&’s last major work-and perhaps his most important. Fukuoka spent years working with people and organizations in Africa, India, Southeast Asia, Europe, and the United States, to prove that you could, indeed, grow food and regenerate forests with very little irrigation in the most desolate of places. Only by greening the desert, he said, would the world ever achieve true food security.This revolutionary book presents Fukuoka&’s plan to rehabilitate the deserts of the world using natural farming, including practical solutions for feeding a growing human population, rehabilitating damaged landscapes, reversing the spread of desertification, and providing a deep understanding of the relationship between human beings and nature. Fukuoka&’s message comes right at the time when people around the world seem to have lost their frame of reference, and offers us a way forward.Sowing Seeds in the Desert will persuade any reader that the imperiled living world is our greatest teacher, and inspire them to care for it as vigorously as Fukuoka has.&”—Toby Hemenway, author of Gaia's Garden

Soybean Improvement: Physiological, Molecular and Genetic Perspectives
by Shabir Hussain Wani Najeeb ul Rehman Sofi Muhammad Ashraf Bhat Feng LinSoybean (Glycine max L. (Merr)) is one of the most important crops worldwide. Soybean seeds are vital for both protein meal and vegetable oil. Soybean was domesticated in China, and since last 4-5 decades it has become one of the most widely grown crops around the globe. The crop is grown on an anticipated 6% of the world’s arable land, and since the 1970s, the area in soybean production has the highest percentage increase compared to any other major crop. It is a major crop in the United States, Brazil, China and Argentina and important in many other countries. The cultivated soybean has one wild annual relative, G. soja, and 23 wild perennial relatives. Soybean has spread to many Asian countries two to three thousand years ago, but was not known in the West until the 18th century. Among the various constraints responsible for decrease in soybean yields are the biotic and abiotic stresses which have recently increased as a result of changing climatic scenarios at global level. A lot of work has been done for cultivar development and germplasm enhancement through conventional plant breeding. This has resulted in development of numerous high yielding and climate resilient soybean varieties. Despite of this development, plant breeding is long-term by nature, resource dependent and climate dependent. Due to the advancement in genomics and phenomics, significant insights have been gained in the identification of genes for yield improvement, tolerance to biotic and abiotic stress and increased quality parameters in soybean. Molecular breeding has become routine and with the advent of next generation sequencing technologies resulting in SNP based molecular markers, soybean improvement has taken a new dimension and resulted in mapping of genes for various traits that include disease resistance, insect resistance, high oil content and improved yield.This book includes chapters from renowned potential soybean scientists to discuss the latest updates on soybean molecular and genetic perspectives to elucidate the complex mechanisms to develop biotic and abiotic stress resilience in soybean. Recent studies on the improvement of oil quality and yield in soybean have also been incorporated.

Soziale Medien und die Streitkräfte
by Eva Moehlecke de Baseggio Olivia Schneider Tibor Szvircsev TreschSoziale Medien haben die Kommunikation und Interaktion in der heutigen Gesellschaft grundlegend verändert. Sie werden nicht nur von Privatpersonen genutzt, sondern sind auch in Organisationen des öffentlichen Sektors wie den Streitkräften allgegenwärtig. Dieses Buch untersucht die Chancen und Risiken von Social Media im Kontext der Streitkräfte aus einer internationalen, sozialwissenschaftlichen Perspektive. Es erörtert die Auswirkungen sozialer Medien auf den Alltag von Militärangehörigen und analysiert, inwieweit soziale Medien deren Leistung beeinflussen, sei es als Ablenkung oder als Quelle wahrgenommener Wertschätzung. Sie beleuchtet insbesondere die Darstellung von Männlichkeit und Weiblichkeit in militärischen Social-Media-Kanälen, da die Art und Weise, wie das Geschlecht in den sozialen Medien dargestellt wird, Auswirkungen darauf hat, wie sich zukünftige Rekruten und - am anderen Ende des militärischen Karrierespektrums - Veteranen angesprochen fühlen. Das Buch befasst sich auch mit der neuen Form der Folgediskussion, die es den Streitkräften ermöglicht, mit der Bevölkerung zu interagieren. In den sozialen Medien werden die Streitkräfte öffentlich präsentiert, was die Meinung der Öffentlichkeit über sie prägt. Außerdem können die Streitkräfte die Debatten als Instrument zur Beobachtung der Einstellung der Gesellschaft zu ihnen oder zu Ereignissen, die sich auf die Gesellschaft auswirken, nutzen. Umgekehrt können die sozialen Medien den Militärangehörigen eine Stimme verleihen und ihnen ermöglichen, sich öffentlich Gehör zu verschaffen. Da Diskussionen in sozialen Medien nur begrenzt kontrollierbar sind, verändert der Kontext, in dem die Streitkräfte diskutiert werden, ihren Einflussbereich und führt möglicherweise zu einem Kontrollverlust. Ein extremes Beispiel hierfür ist die Nutzung sozialer Medien als Instrument zur strategischen Verbreitung von Fehlinformationen, um die öffentliche Meinung zu beeinflussen und die nationale Sicherheit zu gefährden. Darüber hinaus führt die Nutzung sozialer Medien zur Demoralisierung von Gegnern oder zur Beeinträchtigung ihrer Glaubwürdigkeit dazu, dass soziale Medien als Cyberwaffe betrachtet werden, die Politik und militärische Aktivitäten beeinflusst.
Soziale Netzwerke – Die Familie von heute: Recht und Politik der Regulierung
by Vanessa KirchSoziale Netzwerke haben eine Fülle von Problemen in Bezug auf die Privatsphäre und den Schutz personenbezogener Daten aufgeworfen. Die Nutzung sozialer Netzwerke ist zu einem zentralen Anliegen von Rechtswissenschaftlern, politischen Entscheidungsträgern und den Betreibern sowie den Nutzern dieser sozialen Netzwerke geworden. Dieses bahnbrechende Buch beleuchtet die Bedeutung des Datenschutzes im Zusammenhang mit den neuen elektronischen Kommunikationstechnologien von heute, da es widersprüchliche Ansprüche zum Schutz der nationalen und internationalen Sicherheit, der Freiheit des Internets und wirtschaftlicher Überlegungen aufzeigt. Auf der Grundlage des intellektuellen Rahmens der New Haven School of Jurisprudence stellt der Autor das geltende Recht zum Schutz der Privatsphäre und zu sozialen Medien in internationaler und vergleichender Perspektive dar und konzentriert sich dabei auf die Vereinigten Staaten, die Europäische Union und ihre Allgemeine Datenschutzverordnung von 2018 sowie auf Deutschland, das Vereinigte Königreich und Lateinamerika. Das Buch bewertet das geltende Recht, erörtert Alternativen und gibt Empfehlungen für eine öffentliche Ordnung der Menschenwürde. Übersetzt mit www.DeepL.com/Translator (kostenlose Version)
