Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La thèse s'organise autour du système commercial multilatéral, facteur de croissance économique et les incidences de cette croissance sur l'environnement et analyse les dispositions environnementales contenues dans les accords de l'OMC ainsi que leur degré d'efficacité environnementale au travers les pays Membres de l'Organisation mondiale du commerce. La situation des pays en développement est examinée de façon approfondie tout comme les différents mécanismes environnementaux à l'échelle régionale et mondiale tels que les accords commerciaux régionaux : La Communauté européenne, l'ALENA et l'APEC, ainsi que les accords environnementaux multilatéraux : CITES, Le Protocole de Montréal et la Convention de Bâle. Compte tenu de l'interdépendance entre le commerce et l'environnement clairement démontrée au cours des plus grandes conférences internationales sur l'environnement et le développement à savoir: Rio, Johannesburg... nous plaidons en faveur de l'adoption des principes des principes clé du développement durable : équité intergénérationnelle, responsabilité commune et différenciée. Ce qui va dans le sens d'un soutien à apporter aux pays en développement afin de leur permettre de faire face à l'interface commerce-environnement. Ainsi nous abordons la question du transfert de technologie et de l'aide financière du Sud vers le Nord. Nous soutenons également qu'il faut une plus grande cohérence entre le système commercial multilatéral et les instruments juridiques internationaux d'environnement afin d'aller efficacement vers un développement durable à l'échelle mondiale. En somme, dans un premier temps, ce travail consiste à revenir sur les rapports des sommets mondiaux en relation avec les concepts qui sous tendent la notion de « développement durable », puis il met en évidence le bien-fondé de certains principes commerciaux pertinents au regard de cet objectif, tout en présentant différents accords multilatéraux d'environnement à titre de confrontation avec les accords commerciaux de l'OMC contenant des dispositions environnementales ainsi que les principes clé du droit de l'OMC. Les concepts et principes pris en compte sont considérés tant du point de vue des propriétés économiques générales que du point de vue écologique ainsi que des difficultés associées à leurs propriétés, étant donné qu'ils souffrent d'un défaut de mise en œuvre. Compte tenu du fait que les études des cas considérés se sont présentés dans une période qui couvrent pour la plupart, plus d'une dizaine d'années, et que les mécanismes divers et variés semblent privilégiés la création de zones d'influence plutôt que le « développement durable » au sens large, ce qui est dû entre autres choses à un manque de cohérence entre les divers instruments, nous faisons quelque propositions en vue de remédier à ce problème. La démarche adoptée ici peut être vue comme le bilan d'un programme de recherche sur l'articulation entre les principes fondamentaux du commerce et ceux du développement durable dans le contexte de l'OMC. Les méthodes utilisées pour rendre compte des phénomènes observés possèdent une double analyse : celle de l'application du droit de l'OMC et celle de la cohérence de celui-ci avec les accords environnementaux multilatéraux et les mécanismes régionaux. Nous faisons également l'analyse de leur mise en œuvre au sein des pays qui en sont parties, tout comme leurs implications pour les PED qui en sont signataires. Cette recherche compte, au moyen d'une analyse critique du droit de l'OMC contribuer au débat en cours dans le communauté internationale sur le rôle que peut jouer le commerce international dans poursuite du développement durable.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The story of the man who instigated the work that led to the internet—and shifted our understanding of what computers could be. Behind every great revolution is a vision and behind perhaps the greatest revolution of our time, personal computing, is the vision of J.C.R. Licklider. He did not design the first personal computers or write the software that ran on them, nor was he involved in the legendary early companies that brought them to the forefront of our everyday experience. He was instead a relentless visionary that saw the potential of the way individuals could interact with computers and software. At a time when computers were a short step removed from mechanical data processors, Licklider was writing treatises on "human-computer symbiosis", "computers as communication devices", and a now not-so-unfamiliar "Intergalactic Network." His ideas became so influential, his passion so contagious, that Waldrop called him "computing's Johnny Appleseed. In a simultaneously compelling personal narrative and comprehensive historical exposition, Waldrop tells the story of the man who not only instigated the work that led to the internet, but also shifted our understanding of what computers were and could be. Included in this edition are also the original texts of Licklider's three most influential writings: 'Man-computer symbiosis' (1960), which outlines the vision that inspired the personal computer revolution of the 1970s; his 'Intergalactic Network' memo (1963), which outlines the vision that inspired the internet; and "The computer as a communication device" (1968, co-authored with Robert Taylor), which amplifies his vision for what the network could become.

Book excerpt: The author, a distinguished physicist and nuclear weapons developer, has participated at almost every stage of the development of nuclear and thermonuclear weapons, their delivery systems, and the efforts at arms control. This book chronicles York's involvement, beginning with his work on the Hiroshima bomb and ending with his service as Jimmy Carter's negotiator at the Comprehensive Test Ban talks in Geneva. His odyssey from Hiroshima to Geneva has been a journey from the conviction that military might and national security were synonymous to the understanding that technology alone will never generate peace and survival. York also provides vignettes of leading participants in the development of the nuclear weapons dilemma. ISBN 0-465-04338-0: $22.95.
Download or read book Women and Trade written by World Bank;World Trade Organization and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2020-09-04 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Trade can dramatically improve women’s lives, creating new jobs, enhancing consumer choices, and increasing women’s bargaining power in society. It can also lead to job losses and a concentration of work in low-skilled employment. Given the complexity and specificity of the relationship between trade and gender, it is essential to assess the potential impact of trade policy on both women and men and to develop appropriate, evidence-based policies to ensure that trade helps to enhance opportunities for all. Research on gender equality and trade has been constrained by limited data and a lack of understanding of the connections among the economic roles that women play as workers, consumers, and decision makers. Building on new analyses and new sex-disaggregated data, Women and Trade: The Role of Trade in Promoting Gender Equality aims to advance the understanding of the relationship between trade and gender equality and to identify a series of opportunities through which trade can improve the lives of women.

This book was released on 2019-03-11 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 2018 FAO-OIE-WHO (Tripartite) zoonoses guide, “Taking A Multisectoral, One Health Approach: A Tripartite Guide to Addressing Zoonotic Diseases in Countries” (2018 TZG) is being jointly developed to provide member countries with practical guidance on OH approaches to build national mechanisms for multisectoral coordination, communication, and collaboration to address zoonotic disease threats at the animal-human-environment interface. The 2018 TZG updates and expands on the guidance in the one previous jointly-developed, zoonoses-specific guidance document: the 2008 Tripartite “Zoonotic Diseases: A Guide to Establishing Collaboration between Animal and Human Health Sectors at the Country Level”, developed in WHO South-East Asia Region and Western Pacific Region. The 2018 TZG supports building by countries of the resilience and capacity to address emerging and endemic zoonotic diseases such as avian influenza, rabies, Ebola, and Rift Valley fever, as well as food-borne diseases and antimicrobial resistance, and to minimize their impacts on health, livelihoods, and economies. It additionally supports country efforts to implement WHO International Health Regulations (2005) and OIE international standards, to address gaps identified through external and internal health system evaluations, and to achieve targets of the Sustainable Development Goals. The 2018 TZG provides relevant country ministries and agencies with lessons learned and good practices identified from country-level experiences in taking OH approaches for preparedness, prevention, detection and response to zoonotic disease threats, and provides guidance on multisectoral communication, coordination, and collaboration. It informs on regional and country-level OH activities and relevant unisectoral and multisectoral tools available for countries to use.

Download or read book CAA2015 written by Stefano Campana and published by Archaeopress Archaeology. This book was released on 2016 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume brings together all the successful peer-reviewed papers submitted for the proceedings of the 43rd conference on Computer Applications and Quantitative Methods in Archaeology that took place in Siena (Italy) from March 31st to April 2nd 2015. Altogether, within the four days of the conference 280 papers were presented in 48 sections divided into ten macro topics, 113 posters, 7 roundtables and 12 workshops. That number, in itself, has prompted a thought or two. Above all it says that CAA is very much alive and kicking, that it is in robust good health, and that it remains a wholly relevant force in the scientific community, fully engaged with the questions of the day, and a continuing focal point for the profession. All of that speaks well for the motto of CAA 2015: KEEP THE REVOLUTION GOING. Although the significance of the motto is obvious, it is worth some thoughts. Few would deny that in the past 30 years or so, digital technologies have profoundly revolutionised archaeology - in the office and laboratory, in the field and in the classroom. The progressive introduction of digital techniques in the archaeological process has of course led to a general increase in efficiency. But perhaps more importantly it has provided a spur to the discussion of methodology and through that has strongly influenced not only the way we go about things but also the outcomes that we have been able to achieve. The pioneering phase in the application of digital techniques in archaeological research has clearly been fruitful and today computer applications such as GIS, databases, remote sensing and spatial analysis as well as virtual and cyber archaeology are deeply embedded within our universities. This is all good, of course, but we must not assume that the task has been completed. An intrinsic revolutionary instinct towards technological development has been awakened. But it will only survive by virtue of the results that it brings about. Or using the words of our Chairman Prof Gary Lock: 'Computers not only change the way we do things, but more importantly they change the way we think about what we do and why we do it'. The general thrust of this statement can be summed up and reinforced by recalling a quote from the philosopher Don Ihde, who has argued we should never forget that all technologies should be regarded as 'cultural instruments', which as well as strategies and methodologies implemented in our researches are also 'non-neutral'. So KEEP THE REVOLUTION GOING! is a motto that lays stress on the need to maintain innovation in archaeology through technological advances. But innovation must have at its root the fostering of critical thought and the framing of new archaeological questions. So there is much work still to be done, and fresh challenges to be faced in the months, years and decades ahead. -from the introduction by Stefano Campana and Roberto Scopigno
