Download or read book Local Governance in England and France written by Alistair Cole and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-11-12 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Local Governance in England and France addresses issues at the cutting edge of comparative politics and public policy. The book is based on extensive research and interviews, over 300 in total, with local decision makers in two pairs of cities in England and France: Lille and Leeds; Rennes and Southampton. No other Anglo-French comparative project has ever gone into such depth - based on actual case studies - making this book an invaluable resource for students and professionals alike. The book poses key questions about the changing role of the state, the difficulties of policy coordination in a fragmented institutional context, and about the relationship between governance, networks as well as political and democratic accountability. It will be of great interest to the professional research community, and practitioners in Britain, France and beyond, as well as to students of comparative politics, European public policy, British / French politics, European studies, public management and local government studies.

Download or read book Access to Knowledge for Consumers written by Jeremy Malcolm and published by Consumers International. This book was released on 2010 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Information Program grantee Consumers International has released the results of a global survey designed to expose the obstacles consumers face in gaining access to education and cultural materials. The survey was conducted in 13 languages, covering 15,000 consumers across 24 countries. The survey found that "The biggest barriers that consumers face in accessing copyright works are those created by copyright law. Even so, consumers around the world will choose original copyright works over pirated copies, provided that they are available at an affordable price." While borrowing from libraries and other cultural institutions provided a viable alternative for some consumers priced out of original copyrighted works, the survey found that, particularly in developing countries, "access to libraries is limited and the works they carry are few." Although the authors of the survey saw "copyleft" initiatives like Open Educational Resources and Free and Open Source Software as great ways to help consumers vault access barriers, they concluded that governments needed to act "to address consumers' needs for lower cost original materials to buy, borrow and access online." The survey forms the first two chapters of Consumers International's new report Access to Knowledge for Consumers: Reports of Campaigns and Research 2008-2010"--Publisher description.
Download or read book Croyances Et Politique Au Moyen Orient written by Linda Marie Saghi Aidan and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2006-06-29 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Le manuscrit analyse une situation conflictuelle et la maniÈre dont elle peut Être rÉsolue. Plus prÉcisÉment, il traite le conflit IsraÉlo-Palestinien. L'auteur tente de rÉpondre À la question : pourquoi, aprÈs toutes ces annÉes de nÉgociations, une rÉsolution durable au conflit n'a-t-elle pas encore abouti ? L'idÉe dÉveloppÉe dans ce genre particulier de conflit (pas tout À fait la guerre conventionnel mais de longue durÉe quand mÊme) est que les croyances peuvent aveugler les protagonistes. Dans un tel cas, les croyances concernant la guerre et la paix sont À la fois À la base du conflit et de sa rÉsolution. Une rÉsolution durable du conflit ne peut aboutir qu'À partir du moment oÙ chacun des protagonistes aurait changÉ la prioritÉ de ses croyances. Le changement est le dÉroulement naturel de la re-attribution ou de la re-ordonnance (&la" re-priorisation &ra") d'une croyance À la place d'une autre.

Download or read book Digues maritimes et fluviales de protection contre les submersions 2e colloque national Digues 2013 written by ROYET Paul and published by Lavoisier. This book was released on 2013-05-01 with total page 730 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Au regard du Code de l’environnement, les digues, considérées comme ouvrages hydrauliques, ne doivent pas rompre de façon dangereuse pour les populations. En tant que moyen de prévention du risque d’inondation ou de submersion, les performances et les limites de ces digues doivent être connues avec précision. Les digues de protection constituent donc une question politique mise en évidence par plusieurs événements récents (Xynthia 2010, la NouvelleOrléans 2005, Rhône aval 2003, Gard 2002, Aude 1999). Cet ouvrage rassemble les contributions présentées lors du 2e colloque national Digues maritimes et fluviales de protection contre les submersions (Digues2013), organisé par l’Irstea et Promosciences, les 12, 13 et 14 juin 2013 au Centre des Congrès d’AixenProvence, avec le soutien du MEDDE, du CFBR, et de la Région ProvenceAlpesCôte d’Azur. Il s’adresse aux maîtres d’ouvrages, gestionnaires, concepteurs, constructeurs, enseignants et chercheurs, services de contrôle, organismes financeurs, agissant dans les domaines d’activités liés, directement ou indirectement, à la sûreté des digues maritimes et fluviales.
