How do people make sense of distant but disturbing international events? Why are some representations more appealing than others? What do they mean for the perceiver’s own sense of self? Going beyond conventional analysis of political perception and imagining at the level of accuracy, this book reveals how self-conceptions are unconsciously, but centrally present in our judgments and representations of international crises.Combining international relations and psychosocial studies, Dmitry Chernobrov shows how the imagining of international politics is shaped by the need for positive and continuous societal self-concepts. The book captures evidence of self-affirming political imagining in how the general public in the West and in Russia understood the Arab uprisings (also known as the Arab Spring) and makes an argument both about and beyond this particular case. The book will appeal to those interested in international crises, political psychology, media and audiences, perception and political imagining, ontological security, identity and emotion, and collective memory.

Managers' decisions and priorities can make or break a company, as shown by the collapse of industry leaders such as Circuit City and Westinghouse Electric Company. This is because managers aren't really there to manage, but to navigate. It's the navigator's job to lead the team-and by extension, the company-to success.Many different management methodologies exist today, but even the most popular ones have limitations, especially when applied at the enterprise level. Stream Theory offers an innovative framework to achieve breakthrough results.Stream Theory shows you the shortcomings of common methodologies such as Agile and Google's OKR framework and introduces ways to adapt them that prioritizes your company's greatest asset: employees. Dmitriy Neganov equips you with the tools and knowledge you need to optimize company purpose, direction, and engagement-all keys to leading an employee-centric organization and ensuring long-term organizational sustainability while meeting the core needs of stakeholders.

The year 2007 marks a new epoch when the majority of human beings on the planet live in cities. What this work explores is how cities coalesce, develop, and thrive, and how they remake themselves for better or worse. The parasitic relationship cities have with nature, the webs of trade and immigration they rely upon to survive, how they feed and water themselves, and how they dispose of waste are examined in a sweeping exploration of what the city is. This book will stand alongside other comparable major studies for many years to come.What is offered is an explanation of cities in crisis. Dimitrios Roussopoulos demonstrates why the state has failed--and must fail--to end the urban crisis. What is analyzed is the spatial structure of the metropolis, metropolitan governance, urban redevelopment policies, housing problems, grass roots activism, the fiscal log jam of cities, and urban planning. How and why decisions are made, and who stands behind them, are questions raised and linked together in a historical perspective unique in studies of the city. The city is the foundation of democracy and citizenship, yet it is widely misunderstood as a geo-political space prone to playing a growing role in shaping the twenty-first century.Dimitrios Roussopoulos is a well-known urban-focused activist. He has worked in the field for thirty years, in several cities, organizing grassroots democratic opposition to mega urban development and the destruction of neighborhoods. Through his public speaking and writings, he has pioneered urban democratization and a new definition of citizenship in the city.

Political Ecology – System Change Not Climate Change
Dimitri Roussopoulos
Black Rose Books
2018

"System change not climate change " This cry reverberated throughout the streets of Paris during 2015's heated COP21 climate negotiations. It was as much a demand as it was an indictment of the failure of existing political institutions to respond adequately to our world's ecological crisis. In an era of slow motion apocalypse, with 3,500 international environmental agreements to date, where did everything go wrong? In this new and greatly expanded edition of his 1991 classic Political Ecology, Dimitri Roussopoulos delves into the history of environmentalism to explain the failure of the state management of the ecological crisis. He explores civil society's various past responses and the prospects for channeling environmentalist aspirations into political alternatives, emphasizing the ideas of social ecology and the central role of democratic neighborhoods and cities in developing alternatives. Ecologists, Roussopoulos argues, aim further than simply protecting the environment--they call for new communities, new lifestyles, and a new way of doing politics. This US edition also includes a new preface analyzing the implications of Trump's presidency for climate politics and an extensive new conclusion analyzing the Paris Accord. Revised, expanded, and updated, Political Ecology is a classic that provides an essential, timely history of the environmental movement now when we need it most.

Дми́трий Васи́льевич Григоро́вич (19 (31) марта 1822 -- 22 декабря 1899 (3 января 1900)) -- русский писатель.Родился 19 (31) марта 1822 года в селе Черемшан (Никольское) Ставропольского уезда Симбирской губернии.Его отец был помещиком, отставным гусаром, и служил управляющим имением матери писателя В. А. Соллогуба. Мать -- француженка, Сидония де Вармон (Сидония Петровна), дочь погибшего на гильотине во время террора роялиста де Вармона. Григорович рано лишился отца, устроившего семью в Каширском уезде Тульской губернии, и вырос на руках матери и бабушки, которые дали ему французское воспитание. Будучи наполовину французом, Григорович в ранней молодости недостаточно хорошо владел русским языком, долго говорил с французским акцентом. В 8 лет его отвезли в Москву, где он пробыл около 3 лет во французском пансионе «Монигетти , по окончании которого в 1836 поступил в Санкт-Петербургское инженерное училище, где проучился до 1840 года и познакомился с Ф. М. Достоевским. Не имея склонности к точным наукам, позже перевёлся в Академию художеств. Здесь он довольно близко познакомился с Тарасом Шевченко источник не указан 976 дней].В 1858--1859 годах Григорович по поручению морского министерства совершил путешествие вокруг Европы и описал его в ряде очерков, носящих общее заглавие «Корабль Ретвизан .Скончался 22 декабря 1899 (3 января 1900)(по другим сведениям 26 декабря) в Петербурге.

Book & CD-ROM. This text has been used in the form of class notes taught to graduate and senior undergraduate students in chemical and mechanical engineering at Illinois Institute of Technology for the last three decades. The computer codes, particularly the Navier-Stokes equation solvers, have been continually updated by several Ph.D. students over the last decade. The theory of fluidisation and multiphase flow is based on the new paradigm that emerged in the 1980s as granular flow. Commercial CFD codes, such as FLUENT, already use this theory. However, this theory is not yet complete. Hence the programs described in this text can be easily updated as new theory is developed. For example, the codes can be extended to anisotropic and multi-size particle flow based on the emerging kinetic theories. Hence this book should be useful to research engineers in industry, to graduate students and to professors teaching a first course in computational techniques. In this book the authors illustrate how their code as well as the commercial codes can be used for the design of green energy technology processes.

Dmitry Vasilyevich Grigorovich (March 31 O.S. March 19] 1822 - January 3 1900 O.S. December 22, 1899]) was a Russian writer, artist, and art critic.Grigorovich was doubly an artist. His training as a painter and as the historian of art served him well in depicting the river landscape in every aspect. The landscape is described in all the varying seasons of the year. Many of the word pictures are veritable poems. Village life is also described with humor and realism. This is especially notable when some of the peasants visit the annual market, where episodes of traffic and of drunkenness occur. (wikipedia.org)
In the same vein as Paul Theroux and Robert Olen Butler, some of these stories take place in foreign countries—Zaire (Congo) and Greece—and center on interactions between a host nation and an American visitor. Others are set in the US in the modes of Alice Munro and Tobias Wolff, focusing on human relationships.Each story reveals a main character’s moral center in the face of unexpected events, some of which seem trivial, others vital.
