        Innovation in Agri-food Clusters

        Theory and Case Studies

        by Peter W B Phillips, Jeremy Karwandy, Graeme Webb, Camille D Ryan

        Innovation has moved through a range of revolutionary epochs, but there is no clear picture of how, or even if, innovation can be managed. This book explores the models, methods and metrics of innovation analysis in the context of a single centre: the Global Oilseeds Complex centred in Saskatoon, Canada. It is a single, coherent volume that outlines the theory and practices related to innovation, offering a critical assessment of the strengths and weaknesses of the different approaches, backed up with empirical evidence.

        Band 2: Das kurze Leben. Abschiede. Für ein Grab ohne Namen

        by Juan Carlos Onetti, Jürgen Dormagen, Gerhard Poppenberg

        »La vie est brève«: Chansonweisheit, nächtlich gesungen im Salon der Señora Mami in Buenos Aires. Doch »man kann viele Male leben, viele mehr oder minder lange Leben«. Juan María Brausen, illusionsloser Texter in einer Werbeagentur, macht nach einer schweren Operation seiner Frau die Erfahrung, daß er nicht zu einer einzigen Existenz verurteilt ist. Hinter der dünnen Wand der Nachbarwohnung hört er die Lebensäußerungen der Prostituierten Queca, und in Gedanken wird er zu Juan María Arce, ihrem brutalen Geliebten. Zugleich phantasiert er sich in die Gestalt des Arztes Díaz Grey, Hauptfigur eines Drehbuchs, an dem er schreibt. Als die Queca von ihrem Zuhälter ermordet wird, identifiziert Brausen sich mit dem Mörder und flieht, als Juan María Arce, nach Santa María, in die von ihm entworfene Stadt, wo sich sein Weg mit dem von Díaz Grey kreuzt. Das kurze Leben, 1950 erschienen, hat Onettis Ruhm begründet: ein herausforderndes, ebenso faszinierendes wie hartes Stück Literatur. Noch stärker verdichtet, enigmatisch bei erster Lektüre und immer leuchtender beim Wiederlesen, sind Onettis Kurzromane Abschiede und Für ein Grab ohne Namen von 1954 und 1959. Die Übersetzungen von Curt Meyer-Clason und Wilhelm Muster wurden von den Herausgebern für diese Ausgabe Satz für Satz revidiert, so daß Onetti, dieser nur scheinbar dunkle Jahrhundertautor, ganz neu zu lesen ist. Der Band enthält einen ausführlichen Anhang mit Anmerkungen, Zeittafel, Bibliographie und Nachwort.

        A new naval history

        by Quintin Colville, James Davey, Katherine Parker, Elaine Chalus, Evan Wilson, Barbara Korte, Cicely Robinson, Cindy McCreery, Ellie Miles, Mary A. Conley, Jonathan Rayner, Daniel Spence, Emma Hanna, Ulrike Zimmerman, Max Jones, Jan Rüger

        A New Naval History brings together the most significant and interdisciplinary approaches to contemporary naval history. The last few decades have witnessed a transformation in how this field is researched and understood and this volume captures the state of a field that continues to develop apace. It examines - through the prism of naval affairs - issues of nationhood and imperialism; the legacy of Nelson; the socio-cultural realities of life in ships and naval bases; and the processes of commemoration, journalism and stage-managed pageantry that plotted the interrelationship of ship and shore. This bold and original publication will be essential for undergraduate and postgraduate students of naval and maritime history. Beyond that, though, it marks an important intervention into wider historiographies that will be read by scholars from across the spectrum of social history, cultural studies and the analysis of national identity.

        Pink Tongue Out, Blind Female Cat

        by Maria Paz Guerrero

        “Himpar editores inaugurates its poetry collection with the new book by María Paz Guerrero, one of the most audacious voices of contemporary Colombian poetry. This book is no exception to Guerrero's quests: it is experimental, full of heartbreaking humor and combines the exploration of the animal with popular speech and the materiality of flesh and language. María Paz Guerrero's third collection of poems is inhabited by a series of characters: a blind cat that hits herself against everything she comes across; bodies that undergo medical examinations to measure the progress of the disease in their organs; legs that can barely hold on until they collapse; a language that unravels like a kite's pita; repetitions and verses crossed and transformed by songs by Héctor Lavoe, Henry Fiol and Simón Díaz. The structure of the book is also novel. It has a unity that is configured from the repetitions of characters and verses that reappear slightly transformed, each time. It differs from books that gather a multitude of singular poems. For its part, the language seems very simple, almost spoken, with a strange syntax, cut, broken. It is a bet on a musical poetry with some raw images, which differentiates it from the metaphorical poetry of abstract images.”

        Amelie Trott and the Earth Watchers

        by Moyra Irving

        This is the extraordinary story of how one small girl stopped a planetary catastrophe. It’s a very timely book, written for the child in us all, with a forceful message about the power of young people to transform the world - a theme currently demonstrated by brave young heroes like Greta Thunberg. And with magical synchronicity, the very week Greta began her lone vigil outside the Swedish government last year, over 1,000 miles (1,897 km) away in the fictional world of books, Amelie Trott took to Parliament Square, London - on a mission to avert the End of the World. It’s a family drama with an international feel - set mainly in England but with episodes in Washington DC and around the world.

        Liberalism & centre democratic ideologies

        Moving through modernity

        Space and Geography in Modernism

        by Andrew Thacker

        This book provides the most comprehensive analysis of the post-war political thought of the Liberals and Liberal Democrats to date. The rationale of the book stems from a belief that contemporary debate over the party's future ideological direction can only be fully appreciated by placing it within a broader historical context. The book begins by outlining the three dominant ideological traditions within the Liberals and Liberal Democrats - namely, classical liberalism, the 'centre' and social liberalism. The main ideas, policies and personalities associated with each tradition are evaluated. Leading experts in the field then examine a range of themes and issues including constitutional reform, decentralization, political economy, social morality, internationalism and political strategy. The final section consists of three commentaries from different ideological perspectives written by leading Liberal Democrat MPs - Vincent Cable, David Howarth and Steve Webb. In adopting a new approach to the Liberals and Liberal Democrats and in combining expert analysis with political commentary, this book will be of interest to students and the general reader alike.
