Описание: Human migration has reached an unprecedented level, and the numbers are expected to continue growing into the foreseeable future. Host societies and migrants face challenges in ensuring that the benefits of migration accrue to both parties, and that economic and socio-cultural costs are minimized. An insightful comparative examination of the policies and practices that manage and support immigrants to Canada and the United States, Twenty-First-Century Immigration to North America identifies and addresses issues that arose in the early years of the twenty-first century and considers what to expect in the years ahead. The volume begins with an overview of immigration policies and practices in Canada and the United States, then moves to an investigation of the economic and socio-cultural aspects, and concludes with a dialogue on precarious migration. Taking a multidisciplinary approach, the editors include research from the areas of psychology, political science, economics, sociology, and public policy. Underscoring the complicated nature of immigration, this collection aims to foster further discussion and inspire future research in Canada and the United States.

Abelson Название: Do Think Tanks Matter?: Assessing the Impact of Public Policy Institutes, Third Edition ISBN: 077355324X ISBN-13(EAN): 9780773553248 Издательство: Mare Nostrum (Eurospan) Рейтинг: Цена: 121220.00 T Наличие на складе: Невозможна поставка. Описание: It is often assumed that think tanks carry enormous weight with lawmakers and other key stakeholders. In Do Think Tanks Matter? Donald Abelson argues that the question of how think tanks have evolved and under what conditions they can and do have an impact continues to be ignored. Think tank directors often credit their institutes with influencing major policy debates and government legislation, and many journalists and scholars believe the explosion of think tanks since the latter part of the twentieth century is indicative of their growing importance in the policy-making process. Abelson goes beyond assumptions, highlighting both the visibility and relevance of public policy institutes in what has become a contentious and polarized political arena in the United States, and in Canada, where, despite recent growth in numbers, they enjoy less prominence than their US counterparts. By focusing on how think tanks engage in issue articulation, policy formation, and implementation, Abelson argues that they have helped to shape the political dialogue and the policy preferences and choices of decision-makers, but in different ways and at different stages of the policy cycle. This expanded and revised third edition includes additional institutional profiles of key think tanks, an updated chapter on presidents and think tanks, a new chapter on the efforts of a group of public policy institutes to shape the discourse around the possible construction of the controversial Keystone XL pipeline, and dozens of new graphs and tables that track the public visibility and perceived policy relevance or impact of top-tier think tanks.

Описание: 'Release Your Kinetic Chain with Exercises for the Jaw to Shoulder' can help you to rapidly rehabilitate and heal and restore the tissues of your head, jaw, neck, shoulders and core with its intelligently designed, easy-to-follow exercise routines It is an ideal tool if you suffer from headaches, jaw pain, neck pain, or shoulder pain. Written for the general public, by the internationally best-selling authors of 'Release Your Pain', this book features 240 black and white pages of information, illustrations, and exercises. ================================= ACTIVATE YOUR KINETIC CHAIN ================================= The exercise routines in this book activate your entire 'kinetic chain', from your jaw to your shoulder, and even into your core You can use these routines to recover from injuries to the jaw, neck, or shoulder, including: -TMJ- Tempromandibular Joint Disorder -Injuries to the soft tissues of the jaw, neck, or shoulder -Whiplash -Headaches -Neck Pain -Rotator Cuff Injuries -Shoulder Pain ================================= WHY EXERCISE FOR REHABILITATION? ================================= If you suffer from jaw, neck, or shoulder pain, your physician may recommend exercise as part of your treatment. But which exercise? How do you find exercises that help to resolve your condition? For example, with a jaw injury, exercising just the jaw muscles won't resolve your problem. In fact, it may even make the pain worse. This is often because all the surrounding muscles and tissues are also restricted or injured - but may not be exhibiting pain syndromes. These structures may even be the cause of the pain in your jaw ======================== WHAT'S DIFFERENT ======================== Rather than working with only the single area of injury, the exercise routines in this book treat your body as a dynamic web of interconnected links - a kinetic chain. The exercise programs in the 'Release Your Kinetic Chain' books use step-by-step routines that take into consideration kinetic chain relationships, tissue interactions, core imbalances, elastic power, and aerobic training. We strive to give you a balanced means of achieving a good strong body that is injury-free. Since injury or weakness in one area of your body always affects the function of numerous other related areas, we designed our routines to take into account direct muscular connections, muscle antagonists, fascial connections, as well as the fact that tissue restrictions often affect the primary mechanisms of energy storage and release. =============================================== RESOLVE NEURO-MUSCULAR AND SOFT-TISSUE INJURIES =============================================== Developed by the internationally best-selling authors of 'Release Your Pain ', these exercise routines - when performed on their own, or when combined with a treatment modality - will help you to take a key step towards resolving long-standing neuromuscular problems and soft-tissue injuries.
