January 2011Sending Law to the Countryside: Research on China's Basic-Level Judical System
by Su Li
The author explores answers to these questions: What kind of law can effectively respond to the actual needs to construct a fair and orderly society? With a vast expanse of rural areas different from the urban areas, what should China do to deal with its basic judicial system for the rural society? Just like Mr. Fei Xiaotong, the pioneering sociologist and anthropologist, Professor Su Li stayed in the countryside, studied the rule of law at the grassroots level and solved practical problems, thus making his contribution in law for the grassroots people. This book presents ideas that are quite new and subversive to Chinese intellectuals who are accustomed to the principles of Western jurisprudence, and has aroused heated debate in China’s jurisprudential circle since its publication.

BRASILIANISCHES JIU-JITSU: Techniken für Anfänger
by Fabio Duca Gurgel do Amaral
BRASILIANISCHES JIU-JITSU Techniken für Anfänger Von Fabio Duca Gurgel do Amaral Jiu-Jitsu, wortwörtlich „die feine Kunst“, ist eine beliebte Art der Selbstverteidigung, die nicht unbedingt auf körperliche Kraft und Stärke beruht. Der siebenfache Weltmeister Fabio Gurgel präsentiert uns eine umfassende zweibändige Serie, die die komplexen Bewegungsabläufe dieser Kampfkunst auf einfache Weise darstellt und den Leser Schritt für Schritt in die Geheimnisse des Jiu-Jitsu einweiht. Das Buch mit dem Titel BJJ BASICS (BJJ GRUNDLAGEN) ist vollständig illustriert und stellt auf übersichtliche Weise die Ausdrucksformen dieser Kampfkunst dar, um dem Schüler bei seiner Entwicklung zu unterstützen. Ursprünglich war Jiu-Jitsu eine Kampfkunstart der Samurai, ehemalige Krieger, die nur schlecht oder überhaupt nicht bewaffnet waren und sich gegen die stärkeren und gut ausgerüsteten Feinde verteidigen mussten. Jiu-Jitsu bildet somit den Ursprung der japanischen Kampfkunst, zu der auch Judo und Aikido gehören, und hat Karate und andere Kampfkunstarten geprägt. Im Jiu-Jitsu werden Techniken der Hiebe, Greifen, Fesselgriffe, Würfe und des Ausweichens angewandt. Auf geistiger Ebene lehrt Jiu-Jitsu Selbstsicherheit, verbessert die Selbstachtung sowie die Konzentrationsfähigkeit und baut Stress ab. Jiu-Jitsu macht sich bei Anwendung der Hebelkraft das Wissen der Physik und der menschlichen Anatomie zu eigen, um so jeden Angreifer mit dem kleinstmöglichen Aufwand von Körperkraft zu bezwingen. Das brasilianische Jiu-Jitsu unterscheidet sich vom traditionellen Jiu-Jitsu insofern, als dass es sich in einer anderen Umgebung und als Reaktion auf dementsprechend andere Bedürfnisse entwickelt hat. Dies erforderte zusätzliche Techniken. Techniken, die im Bodenkampf und im Umgang mit Gewalt im modernen Alltag relevant sind. Heute ist das brasilianische Jiu-Jitsu sowohl für seinen exzellenten Boden-, seinen niveaureichen Wettkampf und seine herausragende Teilnehmer bekannt, wie auch für seinen Ansatz des taktischen Denkens und Manövrierens. Der siebenfache Weltmeister Fabio Duca Gurgel do Amaral begann mit dem Training von Jiu-Jitsu im Alter von 13 Jahren und erhielt mit 19 den schwarzen Gürtel. Zusammen mit seinem Lehrmeister Romero Jacaré ist er der Mitbegründer des zweifachen Weltmeister Alliance-Teams, das 40 Akademien weltweit betreibt, die von Venezuela bis nach New York, von Finnland bis nach Deutschland reichen. Gurgel unterrichtet weiterhin an seiner eigenen Akademie in Sao Paulo und gibt weltweit Seminare und Lehrgänge. Er ist Präsident der Professional League of Jiu-Jitsu. Eine englische Ausgabe für Nordamerika erschien im Februar 2007. Eine tschechische Ausgabe ist Ende 2008 erschienen.

Limnology (freshwater)February 2005Irrigation and River Basin Management
Options for Governance and Institutions
by Edited by Mark Svendsen
With increasing water scarcity, pressure to re-allocate water from agriculture to other uses mounts, along with a need to put in place institutional arrangements to promote 'higher value' uses of water. Many developing countries are now experimenting with establishing new institutional arrangements for managing water at the river basin level.This book, based on research by IWMI and others, reviews basin management in six developed and developing countries. It describes and applies a functional theory of river basin management, based on the idea that there is a minimum set of functions required to manage basins effectively and a set of basic conditions that enable effective management institutions to emerge. The book examines the experiences of both developed and developing countries in order to see what lessons can be learned and to identify what constitutes the core of a 'theory of river basin management'. It concludes that although it is difficult for developing countries to adopt approaches and institutional designs directly from developed countries, basic principles and lessons are transferable.

Botany & plant sciencesSeptember 1993Aphelenchida, Longidoridae and Trichodoridae
Their Systematics and Bionomics
by David J Hunt
The Aphelenchida, Longidoridae and Trichodoridae are groups of nematodes that include almost 1,000 species from some forty genera. A number are of known agricultural importance, both in their own right as parasites of fungi or higher plants and/or as vectors of certain plant viruses. While monographs exist on the systematics and taxonomy of a number of nematode groups, no recent volume covers the three groups included here. This book aims to provide a practical, working guide to the taxa of the Aphelenchida, Longidoridae and Trichodoridae, in such a form as to facilitate usage by both specialist taxonomists and general nematologists. Keys to generic level are included, each genus being diagnosed, illustrated and provided with a comprehensive list of nominal species and, where appropriate, synonyms. General notes on the bionomics and distribution are appended and some 22 species, mostly those of economic importance, are individually described in greater detail. In addition, a general introduction to each of the three systematic sections includes an historical review, basic morphology and a summary of the bionomics. With a comprehensive bibliography, the book is a unique guide to these groups of plant parasitic and free-living nematodes.

Humanities & Social SciencesOctober 2021Ireland and the European Union
Economic, political and social crises
by Michael Holmes, Kathryn Simpson, Dimitris Papadimitriou, Kathryn Simpson, Paul Tobin
This book examines how Ireland's relationship with the EU was affected by a succession of crises in both the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland. The financial crisis, the Brexit crisis and the migration crisis were not of equal significance on the island of Ireland. The financial crisis was a huge issue for the Republic but not Northern Ireland, Brexit had a major impact in both polities, the migration and populism issues were less controversial, while foreign policy challenges had a minimal impact. The book provides a summary of the main features of each of the crises to be considered, from both the EU and the Irish perspective. Ireland and the European Union is the first volume of its kind to provide a comprehensive analysis on British-Irish relations in the context of Brexit. It assesses the Withdrawal Agreement and Protocol on Ireland/Northern Ireland, the devolution settlement and the 1998 Agreement, as well as the European dimension to Northern Ireland's peace process. The contributors explore a number of policy areas that are central to the understanding of each of the crises and the impact of each for Ireland. Chapters examine issues such as security, migration and taxation as well as protest politics, political parties, the media, public opinion and the economic impact of each of these crises on Ireland's relationship with the EU.
