Описание: This book profiles preliminary findings on the impact of COVID-19 on the travel, tourism and hospitality sector. Starting with a narrative relating COVID-19 to the global development agendas, the book proceeds with a focus on global tourism value chains and linkages between COVID-19 and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Other perspectives addressed in separate chapters include impacts of COVID-19 on various industries within the global tourism value chain including aviation, airports, cruise ships, car rentals as well as ride and share car services, hotels, restaurants, sporting, pilgrimage and religious tourism, gaming and entertainment, and the stock market. The book also includes chapters on corporate, philanthropic and public donations, as well as tourism economic stimulus packages. It then concludes with a chapter focusing on building back a better tourism sector post-COVID-19 that strongly draws from the Sendai Framework on Disaster Risk Reduction (2015-2030) and the disaster cycle. To this end, this book is suitable as a read for several professionals in disciplines such as tourism and hospitality studies, economics, sustainable development, development studies, environmental sciences, geography, politics, planning and public health.
A virus, pandemic, tests, cases, hospitalizations and deaths.
Something must be done...
Lockdowns, curfews, business closures, stimulus payments, furloughs, border restrictions.
The only way out...
Vaccines
The original estimate often given for producing a vaccine in record time was "12 to 18 months". Vaccines usually take at least 5 years to go through all the processes necessary to prove safety and efficacy. Yet less than a year since the viral outbreak was declared a pandemic millions had already been given the jab.
None of the vaccines have been approved, but are being used under Emergency Use Authorizations only. They are still classed as experimental, and if you are given one, you are part of the biggest vaccine trial ever run on the human race.
Despite this hasty experimental roll-out, there is a huge publicity campaign underway to encourage everyone to get vaccinated as soon as possible. The pressure is on.
The Great Vaccine Roundup of 2021
Do you have questions? Are you concerned?
Does something feel "not quite right" about all of this?
This book doesn't claim to know "the truth", nor does it suggest that the most lurid conspiracy theories are correct.
What it aims to do is help you to think through all that is going on around the world, by questioning the narrative we are being fed every day. Who is involved, what motivations might they have, why is this all happening so quickly?
This is an exercise in critical thinking, because only by doing this can we come to a rational and considered decision about what the best course of action is for our own personal and unique circumstances.

Описание: Critics have routinely excluded African American literature from ecocritical inquiry despite the fact that the literary tradition has, from its inception, proved to be steeped in environmental concerns that address elements of the natural world and relate nature to the transatlantic slave trade, plantation labor, and nationhood. Toni Morrison's work is no exception. Toni Morrison and the Natural World: An Ecology of Color is the first full-length ecocritical investigation of the Nobel Laureate's novels and brings to the fore an unequaled engagement between race and nature.Morrison's ecological consciousness holds that human geographies are enmeshed with nonhuman nature. It follows, then, that ecology, the branch of biology that studies how people relate to each other and their environment, is an apt framework for this book. The interrelationships and interactions between individuals and community, and between organisms and the biosphere are central to this analysis. They highlight that the human and nonhuman are part of a larger ecosystem of interfacings and transformations. Toni Morrison and the Natural World is organized by color, examining soil (brown) in The Bluest Eye and Paradise; plant life (green) in Song of Solomon, Beloved, and Home; bodies of water (blue) in Tar Baby and Love; and fire (orange) in Sula and God Help the Child. By providing a racially inflected reading of nature, Toni Morrison and the Natural World makes an important contribution to the field of environmental studies and provides a landmark for Morrison scholarship.
In this follow-up book to The Pandemic Information Gap (MIT Press, 2020), economist Joshua Gans provides policymakers and public health officials with solutions for controlling the Covid-19 pandemic and future pandemic threats.

University commitments to diversity and inclusivity have yet to translate into support for women of color graduate students. Sexism, classism, homophobia, racial microaggressions, alienation, disillusionment, a lack of institutional and departmental support, limited help from family and partners, imposter syndrome, narrow reading lists—all remain commonplace. Indifference to the struggles of women of color in graduate school and widespread dismissal of their work further poisons an atmosphere that suffocates not only ambition but a person's quality of life.
In Degrees of Difference, women of color from diverse backgrounds give frank, unapologetic accounts of their battles—both internal and external—to navigate grad school and fulfill their ambitions. At the same time, the authors offer strategies for surviving the grind via stories of their own hard-won successes with self-care, building supportive communities, finding like-minded mentors, and resisting racism and unsupportive faculty and colleagues.
