Surveying Climate-Relevant Behavior

Surveying Climate-Relevant Behavior

Springer Nature Switzerland AG

This open access book discusses the contribution of sociology and survey research to climate research. The authors address the questions of which behaviors are of climate relevance, who is engaging in these behaviors, in which contexts do these behaviors occur, and which individual perceptions and values are related to them. Utilizing survey research, the book focuses on the measurement of climate-relevant behaviors with population surveys and develops an instrument that allows a valid estimate of an individual’s GHG emissions with a few core items. While the development of these instruments was based on surveys and qualitative interviews conducted in Austria, the instruments were subsequently tested in a set of 31 European countries, revealing the international relevance of such research. The book also concludes with a brief consideration of the effects of the COVID-19 crisis on environmental attitudes, situating the project globally.

An informative and accessible pictorial history of the Hopi Indians illustrated with pen and ink drawings by Hopi/Tewa artist Neil David ,Sr. David, who has been called the Hopis' Norman Rockwell, is noted for meticulous detail in his works and speaking his mind through the antics of the Koshare clown. Inspired by David's illustration, the authors tell the story behind these images, which capture some of the most important events and milestones in Hopi history from the Pueblo Rebellion against the Spaniards to living and coping with government edicts and intruders from the dominant American society during the late 19th through the 21st centuries. Each image is accompanied by a historical essay that further explores topics that have influenced the Hopi culture, shaped the Hopi society, and impacted David's life in the Hopi world. Historians, ethnologists, anthropologists, and art lovers will all appreciate the social, political, and cultural insights presented through Hopi eyes.
Cosmological Implications of Quantum Anomalies

Cosmological Implications of Quantum Anomalies

The successes of the standard models of particle physics and cosmology are many, but have proven incapable of explaining all the phenomena that we observe. This book investigates the potentially important role of quantum physics, particularly quantum anomalies, in various aspects of modern cosmology, such as inflation, the dynamical generation of the visible and dark matter in the universe, and gravitational waves. By doing so, the authors demonstrate that exploring the links between cosmology and particle physics is key to helping solve the mysteries of our Universe.

Elder Fraud Wars

Elder Fraud Wars

By recounting actual court cases, this book examines the multi-billion-dollar elder fraud industry, the special vulnerabilities of those it targets, and the ease and frequency with which it obtains hundreds of thousands of dollars per victim. It also reveals successful strategies for combating that industry and the important contributions to that effort by concerned bankers, doctors, reporters and others in the private sector. The cases reveal an increasingly sophisticated global industry that targets each victim with a series of repeat "hits." This tactic--criminals call it "reloading"--sets the elder fraud industry apart from groups that defraud younger individuals. Twelve key age-related fraud vulnerabilities are illustrated in the cases. So, too, are the scammers' skills in mapping their target's unique combination of vulnerabilities and then tailoring their narratives to exploit each one. Most of the cases highlight actual victims, scam artists or fraud fighters. Their individual stories range from inspiring and sometimes comical to frustrating and deeply disturbing. Readers with aging parents, law enforcement officials, medical professionals, members of the financial industry and others who work with older adults will find it particularly useful.

"Anomie (from the Greek an-: absence of, and nomos: name, law, order, structure) is the state of a society characterized by a disintegration of the norms that regulate human conduct and ensure social order. Anomie is perhaps best understood between autonomy and heteronomy" source wikipedia. Le petit Robert completes: anomie: n.f. 1885, gr. anomia. Absence of organization or law, disappearance of the values common to a group. The city is no more. Following the onslaught of functionalism and the explosion of automatism, many exchange values have disappeared from our cities. A reconditioning revealing potential: there remain in our suburbs the traces of a close past, the built elements of an urbanity preserved in its form. Allied to values of "citizenship" and sustainability, could we not reactivate them. This in order to give back a certain taste to the city by avoiding a patrimonialization of the old facing a sprawl of the territory. To remake the city on the city, it passes by the work of the street. Forgotten, this major tool will regain its superb quality in the "third city".
DIE STRASSE, um der Stadt wieder einen gewissen Geschmack zu verleihen
"Anomie (von griechisch an-: Abwesenheit von und nomos: Name, Gesetz, Ordnung, Struktur) ist der Zustand einer Gesellschaft, der durch einen Zerfall der Normen gekennzeichnet ist, die das Verhalten der Menschen regeln und die soziale Ordnung gew hrleisten. Anomie l sst sich vielleicht am besten zwischen Autonomie und Heteronomie verstehen" Quelle Wikipedia. Der kleine Robert erg nzt: Anomie: n.f. 1885, gr. anomia. Fehlen einer Organisation oder eines Gesetzes, Verschwinden der gemeinsamen Werte einer Gruppe. Die Stadt ist nicht mehr. Nach den Angriffen des Funktionalismus und der Explosion des Automatismus sind viele Werte des Austauschs aus unseren St dten verschwunden. Eine Neukonditionierung, die Potenzial offenbart: In unseren Vororten gibt es noch die Spuren einer nahen Vergangenheit, die gebauten Elemente einer in ihrer Form bewahrten Urbanit t. K nnten sie nicht in Verbindung mit den Werten "B rgersinn" und Nachhaltigkeit reaktiviert werden? Dies mit dem Ziel, der Stadt wieder einen gewissen Geschmack zu verleihen, indem eine Patrimonialisierung des Alten angesichts einer Zersiedelung des Territoriums vermieden wird. Die Stadt auf der Stadt neu zu gestalten, geht nur ber die Arbeit auf der Stra e. In Vergessenheit geraten, wird dieses wichtige Instrument in der "dritten Stadt" wieder zu neuer Bl te gelangen.
LA STRADA, per dare un certo sapore alla città
"L'anomia (dal greco an-: assenza di, e nomos: nome, legge, ordine, struttura) lo stato di una societ caratterizzato dalla disintegrazione delle norme che regolano la condotta umana e garantiscono l'ordine sociale. L'anomia forse meglio compresa tra l'autonomia e l'eteronomia", fonte wikipedia. Le petit Robert completes: anomie: n.f. 1885, gr. anomia. Assenza di organizzazione o di legge, scomparsa dei valori comuni a un gruppo. La citt non c' pi . In seguito all'assalto del funzionalismo e all'esplosione dell'automatismo, molti valori di scambio sono scomparsi dalle nostre citt . Un ricondizionamento che rivela un potenziale: nelle nostre periferie ci sono ancora tracce di un passato prossimo, gli elementi costruiti di un'urbanit conservata nella sua forma. Combinati con i valori di "cittadinanza" e sostenibilit , non potrebbero essere riattivati. Questo con l'obiettivo di restituire un certo gusto alla citt , evitando l'eredit del vecchio a fronte dell'espansione territoriale. Ricostruire la citt sulla citt significa lavorare sulla strada. Questo importante strumento, che stato dimenticato, sar riportato al suo antico splendore nella "terza citt ".

W.F.P. Burton (1886-1971): A Pentecostal Pioneer's Missional Vision for Congo
Emmett contributes to missional pentecostal historiography through bringing a pre-eminent figure in early British Pentecostalism into the limelight. He shows how Pentecostalism in Belgian Congo was pioneered by W.F.P. Burton alongside local agency. Central to Burton’s contradictory and complex personality was a passionate desire to see the emancipation of humankind from the spiritual powers of darkness believing only Spirit-empowered local agency would enduringly prove effective. Burton’s faith believed for Spirit intervention in church communities converting lives, bringing physical healing and transforming regions. In the maelstrom following Congolese Independence, Burton’s belief in his own brand of indigenisation made him an outlier even among Pentecostals. Burton’s pentecostal faith engendered an idealism which frustratingly conflicted with those not sharing it in the way he pursued it. This book thus serves Pentecostals and historians by clarifying Burton’s ideals and revealing the reasons for his frustrations.
