Memoria e identidad durante el kirchnerismo : La reparación de legajos laborales de empleados estatales desaparecidos.
CC BY-NC-SA
Este libro se propone abordar algunas dimensiones del proceso de producción de “políticas públicas de memoria” que se desarrolló desde el Estado nacional durante los gobiernos kirchneristas (2003-2015). Para eso, toma como objeto de análisis la conformación e institucionalización de la Comisión de Trabajo por la Reconstrucción de Nuestra Identidad, que tuvo a su cargo la “reparación” de los legajos laborales de los empleados de la administración pública que fueron desaparecidos o asesinados por el terrorismo de Estado. Específicamente, el libro muestra de qué modo la práctica de memoria propuesta por la Comisión supuso el trazado de una línea de continuidad entre la “reconstrucción” de la identidad de los trabajadores estatales desaparecidos y la consolidación de una determinada identidad política. En ese marco, contribuye a delinear la “oferta de sentido temporal” que se produjo desde un conjunto de agencias estatales a la hora de recordar el pasado reciente en el período.

The Baltic Sea Region is an important example of the regionalisation of international academic cooperation. This is the conclusion of the 17th DAAD study on international scientific mobility. On an annual basis, the paper documents the status quo as well as developments in the internationality of German science and universities. The study also examines other countries such as the USA, China, and Great Britain. The emphasis of this issue lies on academic mobility and cooperation within the Baltic Sea Region. Among other sources, the included mobility analyses by scientists, students, and doctoral students are based on international data by the OECD and UNESCO as well as on national data by the German Federal Statistical Office. In combination with other indicators, this data offers a valid foundation for long-term analyses. "Cosmopolitan Academia" (Wissenschaft Weltoffen) is published as a bilingual German/English issue. The study text and diagrams are available for free download at wbv
Global Forest Monitoring from Earth Observation
CC BY-NC-ND
Forests provide a large range of beneficial services, including tangible ones such as timber and recreation, and intangible services such as climate regulation, biodiversity, and watershed protection. On the other hand, forests can also be considered roadblocks to progress that occupy space more productively used for agriculture, making consideration of their regulating services crucial for balancing land use and forest loss. Monitoring forest cover and loss is critical for obtaining the data necessary to help define what is needed to maintain the varying forest service requirements in different parts of the world. There is an increasing need for timely and accurate forest change information, and consequently a greater interest in monitoring those changes. Global Forest Monitoring from Earth Observation covers the very recent developments undertaken for monitoring forest areas from global to national levels using Earth observation satellite data. It describes operational tools and systems for monitoring forest ecosystems, discussing why and how researchers currently use remotely sensed data to study forest cover and loss over large areas. The book introduces the role of forests in providing ecosystem services and the need for monitoring their change over time, followed by an overview of the use of earth observation data to support forest monitoring. It discusses general methodological differences, including wall-to-wall mapping and sampling approaches, as well as data availability. This book provides excellent coverage of the research and applications of forest monitoring, indicator mapping at coarse spatial resolution, sample-based assessments, and wall-to-wall mapping at medium spatial resolution using optical remote sensing datasets, such as MODIS and Landsat. It examines the use of radar imagery in forest monitoring and presents a number of operational systems, from Brazil’s PRODES and DETER products to Australia’s NCAS system. Written by leading global experts in the field, this book offers a launch point for future advances in satellite-based monitoring of global forest resources. It gives readers a deeper understanding of global forest monitoring methods and shows how state-of-the-art technologies may soon provide key data for creating more balanced policies.

Gender budgeting, ein emanzipatorisches, finanzpolitisches und demokratiepolitisches Instrument
CC BY
In den letzen Jahren rückten vielfältige Gender Budgeting-Initiativen in den öffentlichen Fokus, die das Ziel hatten, die Gleichstellung von Frauen und Männern zu fördern. Ihnen wird ein großes emanzipatorisches und demokratisches Potential zugeschrieben. Während der Demokratisierungsanspruch zwar häufig betont wird, stellen die Definition und Präzisierung von Demokratie bzw. Demokratisierung bislang weitgehend unbehandelte Bereiche dar. Daher zielt die Arbeit darauf ab, die theoretische Fundierung von Gender Budgeting zu vertiefen und damit einen Beitrag zu einer geschlechtergerechten und emanzipatorischen Demokratisierung der Finanzpolitik zu leisten. Mit Hilfe einer Qualitativen Inhaltsanalyse wird eine Untersuchung feministisch-demokratietheoretischer Überlegungen vorgenommen, um daraus einen Kriterienkatalog zu entwickeln. Dieser wird anschließend in den Budgetprozess integriert, um ein Modell eines feministisch-demokratischen Budgetprozesses beispielhaft anhand des Wiener Budgetkreislaufes zu entwerfen.

Samuel Johnson
PD-US
Lives of the Most Eminent English Poets (1779–81) is a work by Samuel Johnson, comprising short biographies and critical appraisals of 52 poets, most of whom lived during the eighteenth century. It is arranged, approximately, by date of death. Six of the Lives have been singled out as the most "important": John Milton, John Dryden, Alexander Pope, Joseph Addison, Jonathan Swift, and Thomas Gray. One of the lives, Richard Savage, was previously printed as Life of Mr Richard Savage in 1744. From Wikipedia (CC BY-SA).
