Nossa vez de poluir
by Ronald RwakigumbaTurn to Pollute usa o título de um argumento frequentemente narrado durante as negociações sobre mudanças climáticas, onde as nações menos desenvolvidas postulam que, dado que as nações desenvolvidas causaram a maior parte da poluição no passado, elas têm a obrigação histórica de arcar com os custos associados à mitigação ou adaptação às mudanças climáticas. Simultaneamente, eles também argumentam que, como a poluição através da industrialização é uma consequência inevitável para o desenvolvimento, as nações em desenvolvimento têm de poluir para alcançar o crescimento económico. Dizer o contrário não é novidade, o que falta no discurso é comunicar claramente o crescimento verde como uma alternativa que concilia exactamente os aparentes opostos do desenvolvimento entre objectivos ecológicos e sociais. O que também tem faltado nos discursos é uma abordagem multissetorial ao desenvolvimento sustentável, onde diferentes facetas foram abordadas isoladamente, perdendo a oportunidade que surge de uma abordagem intersetorial. Esta é a jornada apresentada nas 100 páginas de 'Nossa vez de poluir' Começando com um mergulho profundo na sustentabilidade, o livro prossegue introduzindo o valor do ambiente e fornecendo formas de corrigir o que pode ter corrido mal na precificação do ambiente, seguida de uma narração geral da acção climática - ou será inacção? Não menos importante, a energia, que desempenha um papel fundamental no abastecimento das famílias e das economias, requer uma boa análise, que é fornecida num dos últimos capítulos. O que diferencia este livro é a visão holística de conectar os diferentes pontos e traçar um quadro mais completo de como avançamos, e isso está escrito no capítulo final do desenvolvimento sustentável com exemplos, lições e reflexões. Em última análise, estamos nisto juntos, na nossa casa partilhada, a Terra, e que melhor maneira de comunica
Notre tour de polluer
by Ronald RwakigumbaLoin de ralentir le développement, les modèles d’industrialisation respectueux de l’environnement comme l’industrie verte ouvrent la voie à un avenir meilleur. Au-delà du profit, les entreprises soucieuses des personnes et de la planète offrent des rendements plus stables et durables. Il doit y avoir un autre modèle de croissance économique qui dissocie la croissance du PIB de l’augmentation des émissions de gaz à effet de serre (GES). Je postule dans ce livre que si les modèles de développement passés ont permis une croissance grâce à la pollution industrielle, les pays en développement n’ont pas besoin de suivre cette voie. L’industrie verte, qu’elle soit axée sur l’efficacité des ressources, la réduction de la pollution ou la vulnérabilité flagrante à la destruction des moyens de subsistance et des infrastructures induite par l’inaction climatique, montre une plus grande viabilité économique comme voie à suivre. Face au défi de concilier développement et objectifs écologiques, certains ont souvent soutenu que l’industrialisation était une opportunité pour les pays les moins avancés, à qui c’était désormais à leur tour de polluer l’environnement, tout comme les pays développés l’ont fait pendant de nombreuses décennies. D’autres pays ont également fait valoir qu’ils ont encore de quoi polluer, contrairement aux États développés qui sont apparemment surpeuplés et dont l’écosystème est au point de rupture. L’ironie que je vois est que les États développés qui cherchent de plus en plus à dissocier la croissance du PIB de l’augmentation des émissions de GES sont également les mieux préparés à résister aux événements climatiques extrêmes. Ce n'est PAS à notre tour de polluer. Les entreprises ont centré leur seul objectif sur la maximisation de la valeur actionnariale, en partant du principe que les actionnaires supportent uniquement le risque résiduel. Nous
Multiparty Democracy in Zimbabwe: Opposition Politics and the Zimbabwe African National Union Patriotic Front (ZANU-PF) (1980–2017)
by Aaron RwodziThis book provides a comprehensive account of the tumultuous political landscape of Zimbabwe. Delving into historical and contemporary perspectives, the author analyses the relationship between the ruling ZANU-PF party and the opposition, exposing the pervasive influence of foreign powers and their ‘regime change’ agendas. Amidst western-imposed economic sanctions, the book examines how political opposition has struggled to maintain its footing in the face of ZANU-PF's rhetoric on preserving the nation's sovereignty. Drawing on the powerful theoretical frameworks of Gramsci's hegemony theory and instrumentalism, the book dissects the constraints on multiparty democracy under ZANU-PF's rule. From the party's manipulation of liberation narratives to the subtle intricacies of ‘Mugabeism’, a violent and ideological stronghold, the author unveils the tactics employed to maintain power. The chapters uncover the pivotal role played by the military throughout Zimbabwe's history: from the days of the liberation struggle to the shocking events of 2017, when Mugabe's grip on power was diminished by the very force that had propped him up for decades, the author reveals how the military's involvement has thwarted opposition players' attempts to claim power. Boldly challenging the notion that constraints solely rest on ZANU-PF, this book calls attention to the shortcomings of opposition parties in navigating Zimbabwe’s treacherous political landscape. Using compelling evidence and unparalleled analysis, the book is an essential read for those seeking to understand the intricate web of power, manipulation, and struggle that has defined Zimbabwe's political journey.
Bless Your Heart (A Bless Your Heart Novel #1)
by Lindy RyanA crackling mystery-horror novel with big-hearted characters and Southern charm with a bite, Bless Your Heart is a gasp-worthy delight from start to finish from debut author Lindy Ryan. Rise and shine. The Evans women have some undead to kill.It’s 1999 in Southeast Texas and the Evans women, owners of the only funeral parlor in town, are keeping steady with…normal business. The dead die, you bury them. End of story. That’s how Ducey Evans has done it for the last eighty years, and her progeny—Lenore the experimenter and Grace, Lenore’s soft-hearted daughter, have run Evans Funeral Parlor for the last fifteen years without drama. Ever since That Godawful Mess that left two bodies in the ground and Grace raising her infant daughter Luna, alone.But when town gossip Mina Jean Murphy’s body is brought in for a regular burial and she rises from the dead instead, it’s clear that the Strigoi—the original vampire—are back. And the Evans women are the ones who need to fight back to protect their town.As more folks in town turn up dead and Deputy Roger Taylor begins asking way too many questions, Ducey, Lenore, Grace, and now Luna, must take up their blades and figure out who is behind the Strigoi’s return. As the saying goes, what rises up, must go back down. But as unspoken secrets and revelations spill from the past into the present, the Evans family must face that sometimes, the dead aren’t the only things you want to keep buried. "A gloriously gruesome, compulsively readable debut that is as grizzly as it is clever and heartfelt." - Rachel Harrison

On the Other Hand: Canadian Multiculturalism and Its Progressive Critics
by Phil RyanFor many, Canadian multiculturalism represents the hope that we can build a society in which people who have come from all corners of the world can fully participate without first subverting or erasing their unique identities. Many progressive critics, however, dismiss this hope as an illusion that serves to mask ongoing racism and inequality. Foregrounding the capitalist nature of the Canadian state and society, On the Other Hand examines the arguments of a range of progressive critics of Canadian multiculturalism. An exercise in “critical listening,” the book aims to both communicate and assess these progressive critiques. It proposes conditions for the intelligibility of social science analysis in general and reflects on the requirements for effective progressive thought and writing. Grounded in a political economy approach, the book argues that capitalism and the capitalist nature of the state must be integrated into our analysis of multiculturalism, immigration policy, and persistent racism. On the Other Hand reveals how progressive critiques can identify real limits of multiculturalism: limits of which we must be aware if we are either to endorse them or seek to transcend them.

The Economics of Inequality
by Robert S. RycroftIf there was any question before, there is no longer a question today: inequality, discrimination, poverty, and mobility are prominent national issues. The notion of "The American Dream" has been sold to generations of young Americans as the idea that working hard and following your dreams will allow you to break through any barriers in your path and inevitably lead to success. However, recent findings on inequality, discrimination, poverty, and mobility show that "The American Reality" is very different.The third edition of this introductory-level text has been completely revised to bring students up to date with current economic thinking on these issues. With an emphasis on data, theory, and policy, this book tackles each issue by exploring three key questions in each chapter: What does the data tell us about what has been happening to the American economy? What are the economic theories needed to understand what has been happening? What are the policy ideas and controversies associated with these economic problems?Key controversies are highlighted in each chapter to drive classroom discussion, and end-of-chapter questions develop student understanding. The book will also be accompanied by digital supplements in the form of PowerPoint slides for each chapter. This clearly written text is ideally suited to a wide variety of courses on contemporary economic conditions, inequality, and social economics in the United States.

The Routledge Handbook of Coach Development in Sport (Routledge International Handbooks)
by Steven B. Rynne Clifford J. MallettThe Routledge Handbook of Coach Development in Sport is a comprehensive text that underscores the importance of learning and context for those who sculpt the environment in which people of all ages develop in and through sport.Coaches and those responsible for the development of coaches are best positioned as both learners and facilitators of learning. As sport becomes more globalised, the concomitant professionalisation of coaches necessitates ongoing learning and development to embrace new knowledge and understanding. Moreover, contemporary coach development presents as a wicked problem, in that it continues to evolve, it is contextually bound, and there is no single or obvious way to approach it. Problematically, there is often limited assistance available to support coaches and coach developers in their ongoing development. As such, this book provides a truly international reference point that brings together leading scholars and practitioners from across the globe to provide an overview of the theories and practices of coaches and coach developers that are impacting the quality of sporting environments.Therefore, this book is an important reference for researchers, scholars, and practitioners alike in the fields of Sport Coaching, Coach Development, Sport Development, Sport for Development, Physical Education and related disciplines.
Reliable and Intelligent Optimization in Multi-Layered Cloud Computing Architectures
by Madhusudhan H. S. Satish Kumar T. Punit Gupta Dinesh Kumar Saini Kashif ZiaOne of the major developments in the computing field has been cloud computing, which enables users to do complicated computations that local devices are unable to handle. The computing power and flexibility that have made the cloud so popular do not come without challenges. It is particularly challenging to decide which resources to use, even when they have the same configuration but different levels of performance because of the variable structure of the available resources. Cloud data centers can host millions of virtual machines, and where to locate these machines in the cloud is a difficult problem. Additionally, fulfilling optimization needs is a complex problem.Reliable and Intelligent Optimization in Multi-Layered Cloud Computing Architectures examines ways to meet these challenges. It discusses virtual machine placement techniques and task scheduling techniques that optimize resource utilization and minimize energy consumption of cloud data centers. Placement techniques presented can provide an optimal solution to the optimization problem using multiple objectives. The book focuses on basic design principles and analysis of virtual machine placement techniques and task allocation techniques. It also looks at virtual machine placement techniques that can improve quality-of-service (QoS) in service-oriented architecture (SOA) computing. The aims of virtual machine placement include minimizing energy usage, network traffic, economical cost, maximizing performance, and maximizing resource utilization. Other highlights of the book include: Improving QoS and resource efficiency Fault-tolerant and reliable resource optimization models A reactive fault tolerance method using checkpointing restart Cost and network-aware metaheuristics. Virtual machine scheduling and placement Electricity consumption in cloud data centers Written by leading experts and researchers, this book provides insights and techniques to those dedicated to improving cloud computing and its services.

Gratitude: Essays
by Oliver SacksA deeply moving testimony and celebration of how to embrace life. No writer has succeeded in capturing the medical and human drama of illness as honestly and as eloquently as Oliver Sacks. During the last few months of his life, he wrote a set of essays in which he movingly explored his feelings about completing a life and coming to terms with his own death.&“A series of heart-rending yet ultimately uplifting essays….A lasting gift to readers." —The Washington Post&“It is the fate of every human being,&” Sacks writes, &“to be a unique individual, to find his own path, to live his own life, to die his own death.&” Together, these four essays form an ode to the uniqueness of each human being and to gratitude for the gift of life.&“My predominant feeling is one of gratitude. I have loved and been loved. I have been given much and I have given something in return. Above all, I have been a sentient being, a thinking animal, on this beautiful planet, and that in itself has been an enormous privilege and adventure.&” —Oliver Sacks &“Oliver Sacks was like no other clinician, or writer. He was drawn to the homes of the sick, the institutions of the most frail and disabled, the company of the unusual and the &‘abnormal.&’ He wanted to see humanity in its many variants and to do so in his own, almost anachronistic way—face to face, over time, away from our burgeoning apparatus of computers and algorithms. And, through his writing, he showed us what he saw.&” —Atul Gawande, author of Being Mortal
