Download or read book Sfide e temi tra tecnologie innovative e network di paesaggi written by Bellomo, Mariangela and published by Altralinea Edizioni . This book was released on 2021-12-03 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Il volume è la versione aggiornata e ampliata con sintesi in inglese della precedente edizione (ottobre 2020). Il libro propone una serie di riflessioni maturate a seguito di una ricerca, svolta in convenzione tra il Dipartimento di Architettura dell’Università degli Studi di Napoli e il Comune di Aquilonia, sul tema energia-sviluppo-ambiente, avente come campo di osservazione il piccolo centro dell’area interna campana. Le riflessioni sono restituite sotto forma di sfide e temi quali chiavi interpretative di alcuni fenomeni propri della contemporaneità - crisi energetica, climatica, pandemica, abbandono dei piccoli centri, isolamento delle aree interne, dispersione di risorse e abitanti, ecc. – rispetto ai quali si evidenziano strategie in atto e possibili approcci innovativi per i territori marginali dei centri minori. Il libro affronta, dunque, aspetti nevralgici di una questione complessa, sottolineando la necessità di molti punti di vista, ciascuno dei quali collabora alla prefigurazione di possibili futuri per patrimoni e paesaggi.

Book excerpt: La ricerca, svolta in convenzione tra il Dipartimento di Architettura dell’Università degli Studi di Napoli e il Comune di Aquilonia, sul tema energia-sviluppo-ambiente, ha come campo di osservazione il piccolo centro dell’area interna campana. Le riflessioni sono restituite sotto forma di sfide e temi quali chiavi interpretative di alcuni fenomeni propri della contemporaneità - crisi energetica, climatica, pandemica, abbandono dei piccoli centri, isolamento delle aree interne, dispersione di risorse e abitanti, ecc. – rispetto ai quali si evidenziano strategie in atto e possibili approcci innovativi per i territori marginali dei centri minori. Aspetto prioritario è il passaggio da una dimensione locale ad una logica sistemica che consenta di connettere frammenti, paesaggi, spazi, artefatti, abitanti, trasformando i confini rigidi di quei territori in confini mutevoli, multi-scalari, porosi. Il libro affronta, dunque, aspetti nevralgici di una questione complessa, sottolineando la necessità di molti punti di vista, ciascuno dei quali collabora alla prefigurazione di possibili futuri per patrimoni e paesaggi.

Book excerpt: "How can agriculture contribute to the sustainable development of European cities? How can agriculture and horticulture create vital urban spaces that have new social and ecological qualities and are also economically viable? Urban Agriculture Europe is the first comprehensive, transdisciplinary publication about urban agriculture in Europe. Apart from well-known examples of urban food gardens in Western European metropolises, this volume also studies innovative forms of periurban agriculture, bringing in experiences in Eastern and Southern Europe. The contributions approach urban agriculture from the point of view of social science, the economy, agricultural ecology, and spatial planning and address the role of citizens, involved parties, and politics, as well as operational models and planning tools. Case studies from Barcelona, Dublin, Geneva, Milan, Sofia, Warsaw, and the Ruhr Metropolis allow a comparative view of European practice. Statements from involved parties and guidance for cities and regions round off the publication."--Page 4 of cover.

Download or read book Developing Corporate Social Responsibility written by Francesco Perrini and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2006-01-01 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Perrini et al provide a detailed, authoritative look at the evolving European perspective on corporate social responsibility. They show how Europe has moved from follower status to leading edge practice. The book is the best current indicator of what the next stages of CSR will look like.' - Thomas W. Dunfee, University of Pennsylvania, US The rapidly increasing attention devoted to Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) has resulted in the term 'CSR' being applied to myriad dissimilar phenomena. The authors therefore aim to dispel this confusion by presenting a multi-faceted view of socially responsible corporate behavior and related themes. They provide a conceptualization of CSR that emphasizes the role of the adoption and implementation of specific CSR strategies and their impact on corporate social and economic performance.

Download or read book Theoretical Ecology written by Kevin S. McCann and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2020-04-29 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Theoretical Ecology: concepts and applications continues the authoritative and established sequence of theoretical ecology books initiated by Robert M. May which helped pave the way for ecology to become a more robust theoretical science, encouraging the modern biologist to better understand the mathematics behind their theories. This latest instalment builds on the legacy of its predecessors with a completely new set of contributions. Rather than placing emphasis on the historical ideas in theoretical ecology, the Editors have encouraged each contribution to: synthesize historical theoretical ideas within modern frameworks that have emerged in the last 10-20 years (e.g. bridging population interactions to whole food webs); describe novel theory that has emerged in the last 20 years from historical empirical areas (e.g. macro-ecology); and finally to cover the rapidly expanding area of theoretical ecological applications (e.g. disease theory and global change theory). The result is a forward-looking synthesis that will help guide the field through a further decade of discovery and development. It is written for upper level undergraduate students, graduate students, and researchers seeking synthesis and the state of the art in growing areas of interest in theoretical ecology, genetics, evolutionary ecology, and mathematical biology.
