Описание: Desertification is one of the most important issues facing our societies because of its serious consequences for human health, landscape and the environment. Nonetheless, the issue has been in the eyes of media, decision makers and public opinion and it should be noted that this interest tends to be cyclical, corresponding to peaks that reflect the outbreak of emergency situations related to prolonged episodes of drought and water scarcity, in turn associated with climate changes. This volatile interest has focused on the relationship between desertification and climate change (and more generally on the biophysical factors underlying desertification), neglecting the important role played by social, economic, cultural, political and institutional factors. This role -- brought to the fore by the most recent socioeconomic dynamics at various spatial scales -- requires dedicated approaches from the scientific point of view and a less sensationalistic dissemination of research evidence. The book proposes a trans-disciplinary vision on issues of desertification and land degradation, focusing on long-term socio-ecological dynamics as an interpretative key to local systems complexity.

Kriminalliteratur bietet seit l?ngerem ein Forum f?r die Behandlung schon ‚klassischer‘ postkolonialer Themen. So lassen sich die ProtagonistInnen vielfach als hybride Subjekte beschreiben, und die Suche nach ‚historischer Wahrheit‘ bedarf einer anderen Substruktion als der einfachen Antithetik von Gut und B?se. Dar?ber hinaus sind die im Verschwinden begriffenen ehemals klar getrennten kolonialen R?ume in postkolonialer Kriminalliteratur zwar solche des Kulturkonflikts; die ‚liminalen‘ R?ume, die Kontaktzonen, mutieren aber keineswegs ersatzweise zu idyllischen Orten: Vielmehr sind sie gegen Konflikte ebenso wenig gefeit. Kriminalliteratur ist daher ein ideales Labor f?r postkoloniale Narrative, die Elemente postmoderner ?sthetik mit einem starken Interesse an sozialen Ungleichgewichten verbinden. Der Band versammelt zw?lf auf Deutsch und Englisch verfasste wissenschaftliche Beitr?ge zum postkolonialen Kriminalroman sowie ein Interview mit dem s?dafrikanischen Krimiautor Deon Meyer.

As women, we are constantly evolving. Changing attitudes toward our gender have accommodated many, but not all. Still, we are told, it is progress. Women can now enter career paths never before considered. They can choose not to marry, not to have children, or become a single parent. Women can marry someone of the same sex, younger or older, regardless of race, ethnicity or religion. The lines, for the most part, between sexism, ageism, and racism have blurred, though they are still visible.
So, if as we were told years ago in the 1968 Virginia Slims cigarette commercial, "We've come a long way baby," just where do we stand now?

The 21st Century Perspective of a Christian Woman and their garments of Spirituality is the focus of this first book of a two-book analogy. What is the temperature of your Spiritual garment? What does your walk show? How does that garment fit? When garments do not fit well they usually need altering. When our walk does not mirror Jesus', we need to check the pattern (Word) and sew up the rip in our garments; which pattern are you using? Women do not like ill-fitting garments whether it is a rip or tear in their clothing. A physical garment with a tear in it is noticeable to all and as is a tear noticeable in our spiritual garments; it affects how others see or perceive your walk in Christ. This Perspective begins with the Garments of a Christian Woman with examples of Women of the Old Testament those who were obedient and disobedient.
