Introduced by Patrick Lonergan, The Methuen Drama Anthology of Irish Plays brings together five major works from the Irish dramatic canon of the last sixty years in one outstanding collection. Behan's The Hostage, depicting the capture and death of a British soldier by the IRA, was first produced by Joan Littlewood's Theatre Workshop in 1958 and was declared 'a masterpiece' by The Times. Murphy's Bailegangaire (1985) portrays a senile old woman's recitation of an epic tale to her two granddaughters who struggle to free themselves from her and exorcise the past. Reid's The Belle of the Belfast City, winner of the George Devine Award in 1986, examines the tensions present in three generations of women in a Belfast-Protestant family during the week of an anti-Anglo-Irish rally. Sebastian Barry's The Steward of Christendom won the London Critics' Circle Award for Best Play 1995 and was heralded by the Guardian as 'an authentic masterpiece'. McDonagh's 1996 play The Cripple of Inishmaan is a strange comic tale in the great tradition of Irish storytelling. McDonagh was awarded the Evening Standard Award for Most Promising Playwright.

Environmental Governance in Europe

Environmental Governance in Europe

Albert Weale; Geoffrey Pridham; Michelle Cini; Dimitrios Konstadakopulos; Martin Porter; Brendan Flynn

Oxford University Press
2000
sidottu
Over the last thirty years, the European Union has created a system of environmental governance in Europe. With a large number of legislative measures, the EU's environmental policy is broad in scope, extensive in detail and often stringent in effect. Environmental governance also extends to the ways in which decision making on environmental policy has become institutionalized within Europe, both at the level of the EU itself and in the practices of the member states. This work seeks to understand this new system of environmental governance both at the European level and at the level of member states. It argues that the system is multi-level, horizontally complex, evolving and incomplete. Locating developments at the European level in theories of European integration, it goes on to examine the extent of convergence and divergence in environmental policy among six member states: Germany, Spain, Greece, Italy, the Netherlands, and the UK. It then looks at the operation of the system of environmental governance through an examination of policy case studies before examining the wider political significance of these developments.

The term Federated Learning was coined as recently as 2016 to describe a machine learning setting where multiple entities collaborate in solving a machine learning problem, under the coordination of a central server or service provider. Each client’s raw data is stored locally and not exchanged or transferred; instead, focused updates intended for immediate aggregation are used to achieve the learning objective. Since then, the topic has gathered much interest across many different disciplines and the realization that solving many of these interdisciplinary problems likely requires not just machine learning but techniques from distributed optimization, cryptography, security, differential privacy, fairness, compressed sensing, systems, information theory, statistics, and more. This monograph has contributions from leading experts across the disciplines, who describe the latest state-of-the art from their perspective. These contributions have been carefully curated into a comprehensive treatment that enables the reader to understand the work that has been done and get pointers to where effort is required to solve many of the problems before Federated Learning can become a reality in practical systems. Researchers working in the area of distributed systems will find this monograph an enlightening read that may inspire them to work on the many challenging issues that are outlined. This monograph will get the reader up to speed quickly and easily on what is likely to become an increasingly important topic: Federated Learning.

Historien, mänsklighetens samlade erfarenheter, lär oss om nuet och framtiden. Hur är det möjligt att titta på händelser i det förflutna och med hjälp av dem lösa samtidens politiska eller ekonomiska förhållanden och konflikter? Essäerna i denna antologi härrör från Engelsbergsseminariet 2019 där dessa frågor diskuterades. Ur bland annat idéhistoriskt och evolutionspsykologiskt perspektiv tillämpar skribenterna historien på nutida företeelser som internationella relationer, geopolitik och nationalekonomi, individens roll och den mänskliga naturen. Kanske är det bara genom att tillämpa historien som vi hittar vägen framåt?

Vi har kommit långt från de religioner, myter och grundarberättelser som lade grunden till människans tidiga förståelse av världen och allting i den, och våra kunskaper har på senare tid ökat exponentiellt. I den här boken diskuterar ledande forskare inom konst och vetenskap hur kunskap och information har bevarats och förmedlats i historien, vilket leder oss fram till dagens digitala tidsålder och de många utmaningar som den ställer oss inför, inte minst beträffande våra persondata. Kommer vårt informationssamhälle, under växande spänning mellan en kunskapselit och dem som känner sig utestängda från offentlig diskussion och beslutsfattande, liksom under ökad friktion om tolkningsfrihet och yttrandefrihet i den akademiska världen, att bli en upplysningstid eller går vi in i en ny mörk tid för kunskapen? Texterna i den här illustrerade antologin härrör från det internationellt välrenommerade Engelsbergsseminariet 2018. Huvudredaktörer är Kurt Almqvist och Mattias Hessérus.

Östersjön är mer än bara ett innanhav – det är en historisk geopolitisk skådeplats. Från vikingatidens sjöfart till dagens Natodominerade område har detta bräckta hav varit en livsnerv för folk och länder i norra Europa. Östersjön har fungerat som en knutpunkt för ekonomiska och politiska relationer genom Hansans dominans under medeltiden, stormaktstidens strider mellan Sverige, Polen-Litauen och Ryssland, samt de dramatiska skiften som följde i spåren av Napoleonkrigen, de båda världskrigen och kalla kriget. Östersjön har även visat sig vara en plats för samarbete. Efter Sovjetunionens fall har regionen präglats av integration och tillväxt – en utveckling som nu utmanas av nya geopolitiska spänningar. Hur kan regionen komma att påverkas av energiflöden, klimatförändringar och militärstrategier? I denna omfattande antologi samlas bidrag av ledande forskare inom bland annat historia, statsvetenskap och internationella relationer för att kartlägga de drivande krafter som format Östersjöregionen från 1200-talet fram till i dag. Boken finns även i engelsk utgåva, The Baltic Sea - A Geopolitical History.

Mellanöstern har alltid varit en central plats för handel och erövringar. Läget har medfört enorma rikedomar, kulturellt utbyte och intellektuell vitalitet – men också konflikter, instabilitet och ihållande geopolitiska spänningar. Att förstå regionens förflutna är avgörande för att förstå dess nutid. Antologin Empires of Faith utforskar Mellanösterns långa historia – från Mesopotamien, de persiska kungarikena och Alexander den store till kristendomens och islams uppkomst, det bysantinska och ottomanska riket, och 1900-talets dramatiska omvandling av regionen. Hur har religion, civilisation och imperialistiska ambitioner format regionen? Vilka arv lämnade de stora imperierna efter sig och hur påverkade de lagstiftning, kultur, styre och undersåtarnas vardagsliv? Och i vilken utsträckning är historiens efterverkningar fortfarande synliga i dagens politiska och religiösa landskap? Boken utkommer även på svenska våren 2027.
