        The Sadness of Our Museums

        Derivations of Modernity in Latin America

        by Cecilia Bettoni

        La tristeza de los museos is an essay that addresses the inevitable tensions between the importation of cultural models in Latin America and the slogan of the settlement of a project of modernity. The book analyzes these tensions based on the painting exhibition “From Manet to our days”, an official shipment of the French government that circulated between 1949 and 1950 through Argentina, Brazil, Venezuela, Peru, Chile and Uruguay, and places special emphasis on the dynamics and positioning of Latin American artistic circuits in the new cultural and geopolitical map that was beginning to take shape after World War II. Through diplomatic and press archives, correspondence and other sources, Cecilia Bettoni puts together an agile and meticulous account that contrasts the anachronism of the French strategy to recover its cultural dominance over Latin America and the skepticism of Latin American countries regarding the validity of that model, in a cultural, political and economic scenario significantly transformed by the American influence and by the legitimate desires of vanguard and autonomy that were emerging in the Southern Cone in the middle of the 20th century.

        Biological Control Systems and Climate Change

        by Joan van Baaren, Cecile Le Lann, Chun-Sen Ma, Gang Ma, Heikki M.T. Hokkanen

        Biological control (or Biocontrol) is the use of natural enemies (predators, parasitoids or pathogens) for the control of pests in crops. In classical biological control, a natural enemy is introduced as a new predator to a range where it is not native. In augmentative biological control, a large number of natural enemies are introduced, either in an area with no natural enemies like glasshouses, or to augment natural populations, to ensure a rapid pest suppression. In conservation biological control, habitats surrounding and within crops are managed to favour an increase in natural enemy populations while suppressing pest populations. These agroecological systems can be complex, and are affected by climate change, both negatively and positively. The object of this book is to synthesize and summarize current knowledge of the many ways climate change can influence the effectiveness of biological control systems. The book introduces the reader to general concepts and then describes climate change effects on the large diversity of macro- and microorganisms involved in biocontrol, and the possible increase or decrease in pest outbreaks following changes in characteristics (morphology, physiology, behaviour....), distribution or phenology. It then outlines methods for mitigating the effects of climate change through the adaptation of biological control strategies, including integrated pest management case studies from diverse continents and cultural contexts. Finally, it explores the economic and societal impacts of climate change on biological control systems. This is the second book in the CABI Ecostacking Series. Biological control is a major component of the ecostacking approach to cropping systems. It is intended for students, researchers, lecturers, and stakeholders engaged in biological control worldwide. It is also essential reading for research personnel and managers in companies that produce biological control agents for field application.

        Latin America and international investment law

        A mosaic of resistance

        by Sufyan Droubi, Cecilia Juliana Flores Elizondo

        Latin America has been a complex laboratory for the development of international investment law. While some governments and non-state actors have remained true to the Latin American tradition of resistance towards the international investment law regime, other governments and actors have sought to accommodate said regime in the region. Consequently, a profusion of theories and doctrines, too often embedded in clashing narratives, has emerged. In Latin America, the practice of international investment law is the vivid amalgamation of the practice of governments sometimes resisting and sometimes welcoming mainstream approaches; the practice of lawyers assisting foreign investors from outside and within the region; and the practice of civil society, indigenous peoples and other actors in their struggle for human rights and sustainable development. Latin America and international investment law describes the complex roles that governments have played vis-à-vis foreign investors and investments; the refreshing but clashing forces that international organizations, corporations, civil society, and indigenous peoples have brought to the field; and the contribution that Latin America has made to the development of the theory and practice of international investment law, notably in fields in which the Latin American experience has been traumatic: human rights and sustainable development. Latin American scholars have been contributing to the theory of international investment law for over a century; resting on the shoulders of true giants, this volume aims at pushing this contribution a little further.

        Geomatics in Energy and Water Resources

        by SM. Ramasamy & S.Thillai Govindarajan

        Due to unprecedented growth in population and the resultant massive mining of energy resources, especially the non-renewable resources and also water resources, these resources have gradually become scarce commodities. Hence the geoscientists and the technocrats from all over the world have embarked into many fold research programmes for locating newer reservoirs of these resources and also to develop models to conserve and sustainably exploit them. remoAs this involves the total understanding of the rock types, tectonic architecture, geomorphology and reservoir conditions, the Geomatics technology comprising Remote Sensing, Geographic Information System (GIS), etc have been found to be vital tools in the inventory and management of these resources; While the former due to its synoptivity, multispectral nature and repeativity and the latter by virtue of its capability to store, manipulate and model huge volume of spatial and non-spatial data. Divergent geological provinces and processes are brought out deserving concepts and methods on geology, 3D visualization of subsurface lineaments, SRTM based lineament mapping, spatio-linear modeling of hard rock aquifer systems, 3D visualization of oil bearing structures, etc., both as field geologists and as researchers.

        Als ich unter Sternen schlief

        by Pius Alibek, Cecilia Dreymueller

        Ein Lebensweg vom Orient in den Westen, lebendig und farbig erzählt wie ein Roman – eine Geschichte von glücklicher Kindheitsheimat, Entwurzelung und vitalem Neuanfang. Seine Kindheit im gerade in die Unabhängigkeit entlassenen Irak der 50er Jahre gleicht einer orientalischen Erzählung: Pius wächst behütet und abenteuerlich zugleich mit elf Geschwistern in einer Familie auf, die der ältesten christlichen Gemeinde angehört und ihre eigenen Traditionen bewahrt; seine Muttersprache ist das biblische Aramäisch. Im großen Familienclan werden die Gesetze der Gastfreundschaft und des Respekts für den anderen gelebt. Die friedliche Gemeinschaft verschiedener Völker – Araber, Kurden, Armenier und Turkomanen – im Norden des Iraks wird zu einer entscheidenden Prägung für ihn. Doch es sind die Jahre, in denen sich Saddam Husseins Baath-Partei des Iraks bemächtigt. Die Familie flieht in den Süden, erlebt das Exil im eigenen Land. Widerstandsgeist und Religiosität bringen Pius ins Priesterseminar, die Zustände im Jesuitenkolleg und die Enttäuschung über theologische Engstirnigkeit vertreiben ihn jedoch bald. Er ergreift die Chance, englische Literatur in Bagdad zu studieren. Bei einem Studienaufenthalt in London verliebt er sich in ein katalanisches Mädchen: eine Explosion der Sinne nach der Dürre der Seminarzeit. Doch erst durch die Begegnung mit den Wundern und Schrecken der Wüste, die er während seines Militärdienstes kennenlernt, reift der junge Mann zu seiner wahren Bestimmung heran. Ein Überraschungserfolg in Katalonien, wochenlang Platz 1 der Bestsellerliste. »Dies ist reine erzählerische Energie.« Jaume Cabré

        Geomatics in Tsunami

        by SM. Ramasamy, C.J.Kumanan, BRIG. R.Sivakumar & Bhoop Singh

        The Asian "Mega Tsunami" (2004) has struck most of the territorial nations of South Asia including the East Coast of India. The NRDMS Division, Department of Science and Technology, Government of India, New Delhi, has conceived and executed on All India Co-ordinated Programme on "Tsunami Disaster Assessment and Mitigation" through various institutions of expertise on Geomatics in Earth System Dynamics and the related natural disasters. The Geomatics technology which includes Arial Photography, Photogrammetry, Satellite Remote Sensing, Digital Image Processing, GPS Surveys, GIS modeling etc. was used in this programme, geo-spatial data bases were created on Tsunami disasters over Natural, Physical and Human Resources and futuristic mitigation strategies were evolved there from. The book illuminates the results of the studies carried out along the Indian Coast and a birds eye view on the tsunami studies in Norway. In addition, some special papers on the role of mangroves as Tsunami mitigator, Impacts o Tsunami over marine water quality, coral ecosystem etc; the administrators experience over the tsunami crisis management, NGOs perspective, certain societal issues triggered by the killer Tsunami and citizens perspective, etc. also find a place in this volume.

        Contes de la forêt et de la savane

        Fables d'ici et d'ailleurs

        by Ntsama Abah, Balafun studio by K. Willy

        "Contes de la forêt et de la savane (Fables d'ici et d'ailleurs)" is a collection of tales that immerses us at the crossroads of different Cameroonian cultures and, in a broader sense, of Central Africa. Here, through a very surprising mixture of French-speaking literature and mother tongue which is based on this particular cultural context, the author allows the power and delicacy of oral transmission to shine through in all simplicity in our regions. Consisting of ten tales of unequal lengths, the book presents the exceptional adventures of different living beings in which man meets much more than his “animal” or “insect” brothers… Indeed, and through these multiple adventures, the reader rubs shoulders with wisdom as well as its history and that of the world in which he lives.

        Key Questions in Ecology

        A Study and Revision Guide

        by Paul A. Rees

        An understanding of ecology is an important requirement of a wide range of academic areas, including biology, zoology and environmental science. This book is a study and revision guide for students following programmes of study in which ecology is an important component. It contains 600 multiple-choice questions (and answers) set at three levels - foundation, intermediate and advanced - and grouped into 10 major topic areas: · The history and foundations of ecology · Abiotic factors and environmental monitoring · Taxonomy and biodiversity · Energy flow and production ecology · Nutrient and material cycles · Ecophysiology · Population ecology · Community ecology and species interactions · Ecological genetics and evolution · Ecological methods and statistics The book has been produced in a convenient format so that it can be used at any time in any place. It allows the reader to learn and revise the meaning of ecological terms, the basic processes operating in ecosystems, the dynamics of populations, ecological genetics and the process of evolution, the methods used in ecological surveys, and much more. The structure of the book allows the study of one topic area at a time, progressing through simple questions to those that are more demanding. Many of the questions require students to use their knowledge to interpret information provided in the form of graphs, data or photographs, providing a useful tool for independent study.
