    The United Nations Committee for Development Planning (CDP) in its annual report 1992 will address the relationships between poverty, environment and development, as a kind o f input to the discussion that led to and w ill ensue from the United Nations Conference on Environment and Development (UNCED). We have asked Professor Udo E. Simonis, a member of the CDP and chairman of a respective working group, to summarize the main findings and recommendations of that report

    Variations on the Author

    Full text link
    “Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship

    Ultrasonic broadband spectrometry of liquids: A research tool in pure and applied chemistry and chemical physics

    No full text
    This review is a survey of the many scientific applications of ultrasonic broadband spectrometry (absorption and velocity measurements with coherent sound waves) in liquids and liquid systems, covering, at present, a frequency range from nearly 10 kHz to 10 GHz. Ultrasonic spectrometry has proved to be an almost universal research tool in many laboratories, one that is useful for investigation of various chemical, biochemical, and physicochemical systems: Sound waves traversing liquids induce periodic perturbations in pressure and temperature, which can shift equilibria, resulting in characteristic sound absorption and velocity dispersion spectra. An analysis of such spectra yields valuable information about thermodynamic and kinetic parameters of the particular system that is often difficult to obtain by other methods. Since such periodic perturbations imposed on the system are incremental in nearly all cases, the system can be studied under equilibrium conditions. All nonlinear effects (heating, nonconstant fluid compressibility, and others) are negligible, permitting, for instance, the application of linearized rate equations. In this review, various examples of measured broadband spectra are presented. Related elementary processes are discussed. Among these are ionic and molecular reactions, including mechanisms of association and complexation, proton transfer, solvation, isomerization, interconversion, side-group rotation, hydrogen-bonding, as well as stacking processes and micelle formation. Special attention will be given to the extensive research on chemical relaxation. Fundamental early and recent publications are cited and discussed. Many references are included with particular emphasis on less well known research and publications from countries of the former USSR. This review aims at a demonstration of the widespread applications of modem ultrasonic techniques in many fields of liquid-state research

    Multiple Path Dependency and Creativity in Industrial Districts

    No full text
    The industrial district model represents a specifi c form of agglomeration of local fi rms (Becattini, 1990); however, it is characterized by a multiplicity of possible evolutionary patterns of growth, innovation, and learning (Humphrey & Schmitz, 1995, Asheim, 1996, Markusen, 1996, Belussi, Gottardi, & Rullani, 2003, Caniëls & Romijn, 2005; Iammarino & McCann, 2006; Martin & Sunley, 2006; Braunerhjelm & Feldman, 2006; Simmie, 2008). In the last century, some old districts have declined, whereas others have grown and changed and new districts have emerged. The aim of this chapter is to shed light on the evolutionary process of industrial districts (IDs), evaluating the role of path dependence in their growth trajectories. In this debate, globalization played a central role, and it is considered one of the challenges for the IDs model, in both developed and developing countries (Humphrey & Schmitz 2002, Guerrieri, Iammarino, & Pietrobelli, 2001, Sammarra & Belussi 2006). Following an evolutionary economics approach, we investigate the path dependence mechanism behind the evolution of IDs. Through the analysis of a series of case studies developed in the literature (12 Italian IDs) this chapter shows how different IDs have changed over time and how their growth pattern is partially determined by initial conditions and by heterogeneous capabilities cultivated by the district fi rms. Section 2 deals with the identifi cation of the main theoretical issues concerning the complex theory on multiple evolutionary path dependency. Section 3 discusses the triggering factors at the genesis and during the evolution of the IDs, while in section 4 the methodology of the study is described together with the illustration of the empirical fi ndings. Finally, in section 5 some conclusive remarks are drawn

    Broadband dielectric spectra of spheroidal hematite particles

    No full text
    In this paper, we contribute new data on the dielectric dispersion of suspensions of two kinds of spheroidal hematite particles (alpha-Fe2O3). One of the samples consisted of nearly spherical particles, and the other included almost spindle-like particles. We intended to demonstrate the unique potential applications of dielectric dispersion measurements on the characterization of the electrical double layer of nonspherical particles. Thus, we show that while the electrophoretic velocity is practically the same for both systems, the dielectric spectra differ very significantly from each other. In addition to analyzing the role of axial ratios on the electrokinetic behavior, we have also focused on the effect of pH and of the frequency range in which experiments are performed. Thus, two relaxations can be identified in the suspensions: the so-called a-relaxation (typically in the kilohertz region), related to the polarization of the electrical double layer, and the Maxwell-Wagner-O'Konski relaxation (of the order of megahertz), a consequence of conductivity and permittivity mismatch between the particle and the supporting solution. We show that the dielectric increment in the alpha-relaxation is larger when particles have larger aspect ratio and that there is a secondary relaxation process at both low and high frequencies, a manifestation of the anisotropy of the particles. To obtain more information about this secondary relaxation, a logarithmic derivative method is used to approximate the imaginary part of the dielectric constant. The results are interpreted in the light of existing models. A qualitative agreement is found between the main features of the models and the results, although dielectric data appear to require higher zeta-potentials to be explained than electrophoresis does. We suggest that, while at low frequencies this could be a result of electrode polarization effects, data at high frequencies, less prone to be affected by such effects, confirm the existence of stagnant-layer conductivity in hematite particles

    Also By The Same Author: AKTiveAuthor, a Citation Graph Approach to Name Disambiguation

    No full text
    The desire for definitive data and the semantic web drive for inference over heterogeneous data sources requires co-reference resolution to be performed on those data. In particular, name disambiguation is required to allow accurate publication lists, citation counts and impact measures to be determined. This paper describes a graph-based approach to author disambiguation on large-scale citation networks. Using self-citation, co-authorship and document source analyses, AKTiveAuthor clusters papers, achieving precision of 0.997 and recall of 0.818 over a test group of eight surname clusters
