Within the area of safety, different perspectives exist on how to provide an adequate basis for managing risk. Safety experts emphasize the cautionary principle, stating that in the face of uncertainty, caution should be the dominant standard. On the other hand, relying on economic assessment often leads to decisions made using expected values to optimize return on investment. Safety Risk Management: Integrating Economic and Safety Perspectives aims to illuminate this dichotomy while debating important questions. For example, is ‘safety always first?’ Additionally, in many risk environments only partial knowledge is available and limited emphasis may be mistakenly given to uncertainty.
Risk management deals with balancing the dilemma inherent in exploring opportunities on the one hand, and avoiding losses, accidents, and disasters, on the other. Safety Risk Management: Integrating Economic and Safety Perspectives comprises a collection of work in this field with special focus given to situations with the potential for substantial reward but also with the possibility of immense losses and extreme consequences.
This book aims to contribute to clarifying the problem by proposing an appropriate basis for managing risk to meet related practical challenges. The book consists of two parts: chapters covering fundamental concepts and approaches; and, chapters illustrating applications of these fundamental principles.

Описание: Discover Extraordinary Stories Of ET Contact Many of us are fascinated with the idea of extraterrestrial intelligence. The existence of highly evolved beings elsewhere in the universe is commonly thought of as probable. If any of them have visited our planet, however, is more debated. Still, people from all over the world have come forward with intriguing stories of alien contact. Stories which seem to suggest that this may actually be the case. While most of these accounts are compelling by their very nature, a few stand out as particularly awe-inspiring. 13 of these exceptional cases are detailed in this book. During The Course Of The Book We Will Explore:
A close encounter with three plant-like beings, said to be from the Sirius star system
A stunning appearance of several UFOs and alien beings, including a nearby landing, witnessed by as many as sixty-three school children
A UFO's strange and horrifying attack on an Australian family
How a joyous gathering at a farmhouse became interrupted by the arrival of a dozen or so bizarre looking creatures

Описание: Islamic foundations (waqf, pl. awqaf) have been an integral part of Yemeni society both for managing private wealth and as a legal frame for charity and public infrastructure. This book focuses on four socially grounded fields of legal knowledge: fiqh, codification, individual waqf cases, and everyday waqf-related knowledge. It combines textual analysis with ethnography and seeks to understand how Islamic law is approached, used, produced, and validated in selected topics of waqf law where there are tensions between ideals and pragmatic rules. The study analyses central Zaydi fiqh works such as the Shar? al-azhar cluster, imamic decrees, fatwas, and waqf documents, mostly from Zaydi, northern Yemen.

Today, there is an urgent need for a new politics. We must change our society to reverse the damage human societies make on the environment. To do so, we need a practical and realistic approach that can transform our cities into being ecological and democratic cities. --Dimitri I. Roussopoulos
How can we create a society that is ecological as well as egalitarian? How can we develop new forms of activism that are constructive as well as confrontational? How can we work for genuine social change?
Social Ecology and Social Change brings together a broad range of scholars and activists to address conflict and change, citizenship and community, activism and alternatives. Taken together, they point toward a new ecological politics.

Автор: Cameron Miles, Eirik Bjorge Название: Landmark Cases in Public International Law ISBN: 1849467889 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781849467889 Издательство: Bloomsbury Academic Рейтинг: Цена: 179520.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: The past two hundred years have seen the transformation of public international law from a rule-based extrusion of diplomacy into a fully-fledged legal system. Landmark Cases in Public International Law examines decisions that have contributed to the development of international law into an integrated whole, whilst also creating specialised sub-systems that stand alone as units of analysis. The significance of these decisions is not taken for granted, with contributors critically interrogating the cases to determine if their reputation as 'landmarks' is deserved. Emphasis is also placed on seeing each case as a diplomatic artefact, highlighting that international law, while unquestionably a legal system, remains reliant on the practice and consent of states as the prime movers of development. The cases selected cover a broad range of subject areas, including: state immunity; human rights; the environment; trade and investment; international organisations; international courts and tribunals; the laws of war; international crimes; and the interface between international and municipal legal systems. A wide array of international and domestic courts are also considered, from the International Court of Justice to the European Court of Human Rights, World Trade Organization Appellate Body, US Supreme Court, and other adjudicative bodies. The result is a three-dimensional picture of international law: what it was, what it is, and what it might yet become. (Series: Landmark Cases) Subject: Public International Law]
