A Ditadura Militar e a Governança da Água no Brasil (The Military Dictatorship and Water Governance in Brazil) Ideologia Poderes Político-E

A Ditadura Militar e a Governança da Água no Brasil (The Military Dictatorship and Water Governance in Brazil) Ideologia Poderes Político-E

In recent decades there has been an exponential increase in large hydroelectric plants in Brazil especially in the Amazon region. These large hydraulic structures impact the environment and the lives of people living in the places where they settle and require a special type of water governance. The dictatorial regime (1964-1985) created a standard for the construction of these great structures through an institutional and legal framework which benefited the Brazilian business elite but also through the creation of a popular imagination which shows itself lasting progress on the country's progress and development. The suspension of security the fragility of institutional environmental structures the disrespect for indigenous reserves the lack of clarity about the concept of affected population and the non-payment of fair compensation were identified as one of the main challenges for a democratic water governance in the country. In the late 1970s the Dam-Affected Movement (MAB) began its organization and is also studied in this research. The study is an important and insightful academic contribution to the understanding of the main bottlenecks of effective water governance in Brazil. | A Ditadura Militar e a Governança da Água no Brasil (The Military Dictatorship and Water Governance in Brazil) Ideologia Poderes Político-E

Advances in E-Governance Theory and Application of Technological Initiatives

Advances in E-Governance Theory and Application of Technological Initiatives

E-Governance as a field of study is relatively new when considered within the broader historical context of US democracy. The advent of the modern Internet in the early 1990s yielded new technologies that began to shift citizen expectations of how government can - and in many cases should - govern. Though innovations continue to emerge at a rapid pace these technologies may be used to reinforce long-held deliberative democracy principles including transparency accountability and flexibility. Advances in E-Governance offers a comprehensive exploration of the role that technological innovation plays in facilitating government action and citizen participation. In this timely book author Anthony Trotta differentiates e-governance from e-government and examines the increasingly important role social media and crowdsourcing have come to play in our democracy and the interactions between technology polling voting and outcomes. Including practical cases ranging from DMV registration to online tax filing and markers of successful implementation Advances in E-Governance carefully addresses how the adoption and expansion of electronic platforms align with new government paradigms and looks to future trends in this rapidly expanding field. | Advances in E-Governance Theory and Application of Technological Initiatives

E-Participation in Southern Europe and the Balkans Issues of Democracy and Participation Via Electronic Media

The rapid development and the growing penetration of information and communication technologies (ICT) provide tremendous opportunities for a wide and cost effective application of the ideas of participative democracy and public participation in government decision and policy making. ICT can drive dramatic transformations in the quantity and quality of communication and interaction of government organizations with citizens revitalizing and strengthening the modern representative democracy which currently faces big problems of reduced citizens’ trust and involvement. This book deals with the application of these e-participation ideas in the special and ‘difficult’ and at the same time highly interesting national context of Southern Europe and the Balkans. The first chapter provides an overview of e-participation concepts and practices whilst the following chapters analyse pilot applications of e-participation concepts in eight different Southern European and Balkan countries (Spain France Italy Slovenia Serbia Albania Greece Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia (FYROM)). They cover both the ‘classical’ e-participation paradigm based on official e-participation spaces created operated and controlled by government organizations as well as emerging new e-participation paradigms including e-participation based on web 2. 0 social media and ‘scientific-level’ e-participation based on opening government data to the scientific community.

E. L. Doctorow

E. L. Doctorow

During his lifetime E. L. Doctorow was a remarkable phenomenon among contemporary American novelists. He was a serious writer who was popular a political writer who was a stylist an original writer who was highly eclectic and an historical writer who invented the past. In this study originally published in 1985 Paul Levine follows Doctorow’s progress as a novelist and traces the development of certain themes that recur in his work including the relationships between history and imagination between high and popular culture and between political content and radical style. He also examines Doctorow’s notion of the writer as witness and actor and of writing as a subversive activity two concerns which link him with important writers in Europe and Latin America. The book should provide a valuable and comprehensive coverage of his work to date including the films of Ragtime and The Book of Daniel.

Capsules: Typology of Other Architecture

Capsules: Typology of Other Architecture

This book investigates the architectural product design and urban typology of the capsule which beginning in the 1960s broadened the concept of the basic building blocks of architecture to include a minimal living unit called the capsule. Here it is presented with regard to the continuity of the development of the Modern Movement its revisionist criticism pioneering examples as well as contemporary examples and uses. The typology of the capsule allows us to consider this theme in terms of the architecture of resistance with the potential to search for an other architecture that is embedded in our contemporaneity (manifested in small dwellings composite structures and container units; shelters and mobile homes in nature and the urban environment; technology transfer in high-tech designs; devices additions and extensions etc. ). The concept of the capsule as a building element of architecture as well as a spatial element can therefore be regarded as having a generative potential for an architecture of personal space for the individual forcing us to reflect on our existing living and dwelling conditions. | Capsules: Typology of Other Architecture

E. M. Forster’s Material Humanism Queer Matters

E. M. Forster’s Material Humanism Queer Matters

Through attending to the nonhuman E. M. Forster’s Material Humanism: Queer Matters places Forster’s fiction in conversation with contemporary debates concerned with the intersection of neomaterialism environmental humanities and queer ecology. The book revisits Forster’s liberal humanism from a materialist perspective by focusing on humans’ embodied activities in artificial and natural environments. By examining the everyday embodied experiences of characters the book thus brings to the fore insignificant and sometimes overlooked aspects in Forster’s fiction. It also places importance on the texts’ treatment of queer intimacy as an embodied experience that can transcend sexual desire. The book acknowledges nonhuman agency as central to our understanding of queerness in Forster’s texts and studies the representation of formless matters such as dust as a way through which Forster’s ecological concerns arise by linking the fate of oppressed humans with oppressed nonhuman others. | E. M. Forster’s Material Humanism Queer Matters

The Money Changers Currency Reform from Aristotle to E-Cash

The Money Changers Currency Reform from Aristotle to E-Cash

Since money was invented there has been a debate about better ways of creating it and better rules to govern how it works - until the last generation when it began to seem that the money system had been handed down by God and remained unchanged ever since. But the last few years have seen an increasingly powerful resurgence of interest in changing the system fundamentally and bringing the monetary trends that affect all our lives under our control. Few realize that the debate has roots and a tradition covering mainstream economists like Keynes and Hayek statesmen like Lincoln entrepreneurs like Ford and Soros as well as the imaginative mavericks behind local currencies and e-money. This volume collects together some of their most influential writings to provide a handbook on a vital train of ideas and a guide to a debate on changing money that is becoming increasingly important. | The Money Changers Currency Reform from Aristotle to E-Cash
