"The Routledge Handbook of Research Methods for Social-Ecological Systems provides a synthetic guide to the range of methods that can be employed in social-ecological systems (SES) research. The book is primarily targeted at graduate students, lecturers and researchers working on SES, and has been written in a style that is accessible to readers entering the field from a variety of different disciplinary backgrounds. Each chapter discusses the types of SES questions to which the particular methods are suited and the potential resources and skills required for their implementation, and provides practical examples of the application of the methods. In addition, the book contains a conceptual and practical introduction to SES research, a discussion of key gaps and frontiers in SES research methods, and a glossary of key terms in SES research. Contributions from 97 different authors, situated at SES research hubs in 16 countries around the world, including South Africa, Sweden, Germany and Australia, bring a wealth of expertise and experience to this book. The first book to provide a guide and introduction specifically focused on methods for studying SES, this book will be of great interest to students and scholars of sustainability science, environmental management, global environmental change studies and environmental governance. The book will also be of interest to upper-level undergraduates and professionals working at the science-policy interface in the environmental arena"-- Provided by publisher.

This volume introduces a new concept that boldly breaks through the traditional dichotomy of high and low culture while offering a fresh approach to both: unpopular culture. From the works of David Foster Wallace and Ernest Hemingway to fanfiction and The Simpsons, from natural disasters to 9/11 and beyond, the essays find the unpopular across media and genres, analysing the politics and aesthetics of a side to culture that has been overlooked by previous theories and methods in cultural studies.

Met deze uitgave presenteert de Wereldgezondheidsorganisatie (World Health Organization, WHO) de Internationale Classificatie van het menselijk Functioneren, de ICF (International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health, afgekort ICF). De ICF (voorheen de ICIDH) bestaat uit een raamwerk van classificaties die tezamen een gestandaardiseerd begrippenapparaat vormen voor het beschrijven van het menselijk functioneren en de problemen die daarin kunnen optreden. Doel van de ICF is om door middel van het in kaart brengen van begrippen op dat terrein een basis te leggen voor een gemeenschappelijke standaardtaal. Aspecten van het menselijk functioneren die gerelateerd kunnen zijn aan een gezondheidsprobleem, worden in de ICF op systematische wijze geordend. In aanvulling op de Internationale Classificatie van Ziekten (ICD) worden in de ICF naast gezondheidscomponenten ook een aantal met de gezondheid samenhangende componenten, zoals bijvoorbeeld op het gebied van het werk en onderwijs Gedefinieerd. Met behulp van de ICF kan het menselijk functioneren worden beschreven vanuit drie verschillende perspectieven: 1. het perspectief van het menselijk organisme; 2. het perspectief van het menselijk handelen, en 3. het perspectief van de mens als deelnemer aan het maatschappelijk leven. Het eerste perspectief is uitgewerkt in twee afzonderlijke classificaties, de classificatie van functies van het organisme en de classificatie van anatomische eigenschappen. Het tweede en derde perspectief zijn uitgewerkt in de classificatie van activiteiten en participatie. De ICF ordent op systematische wijze verschillende domeinen betreffende aspecten van het menselijk functioneren die verband kunnen houden met een gezondheidsprobleem. De term 'menselijk functioneren' in de titel verwijst naar functies, anatomische eigenschappen, activiteiten en participatie; de term 'functioneringsprobleem' verwijst naar stoornissen, beperkingen en participatieproblemen. Daarnaast bevat de ICF een lijst met externe Factoren die van invloed kunnen zijn op elk domein. Op deze manier kan een zinvol beeld worden verkregen van iemands functioneren.

Wat is een eerlijk klimaatbeleid? Wat is de relatie tussen de klimaatontwrichting, armoede en ongelijkheid? Hoe kunnen we onze ruimtelijke ordening, woningen, mobiliteit, energie, industrie en landbouw vormgeven op een manier die zowel sociaal als ecologisch is? Welke rol kunnen de banken, de belastingen en de steden daarin spelen? En hoe kunnen we onze verantwoordelijkheid opnemen tegenover ontwikkelingslanden, en tegenover mensen die door de gevolgen van de klimaatontwrichting moeten migreren? Dit boek legt uit hoe we de uitstoot van broeikasgassen kunnen terugdringen, en tegelijkertijd mensen meer zekerheid, levenskwaliteit en zeggenschap over onze economie kunnen geven. In het boek wordt duidelijk dat een economische transformatie noodzakelijk is om de klimaatdoelstellingen te halen. Het goede nieuws is dat die transitie ook het leven van de overgrote meerderheid van de mensen kan verbeteren. Want een doortastend klimaatbeleid en sociale rechtvaardigheid kunnen niet zonder elkaar.

Water is the element that, more than any other, ties human beings in to the world around them - from the oceans that surround us to the water that makes up most of our bodies. Exploring the cultural and philosophical implications of this fact, Bodies of Water develops an innovative new mode of posthuman feminist phenomenology that understands our bodies as being fundamentally part of the natural world and not separate from or privileged to it. Building on the works by Luce Irigaray, Maurice Merleau-Ponty and Gilles Deleuze, Astrida Neimanis's book is a landmark study that brings a new feminist perspective to bear on ideas of embodiment and ecological ethics in the posthuman critical moment.

Can evolutionary theory really help us to understand human behaviour? This is an introduction to the science behind the works of Dawkins, Dennett, Wilson and Pinker. Including profiles of the major protagonists, the book provides a truly balanced account of evolutionary theories of human behaviour, and all their faults. Evolutionary theory is one of the most wide-ranging and inspiring of scientific ideas. It offers a battery of methods that can be used to help us understand human behaviour. Nevertheless, the legitimacy of this exercise is at the centre of a heated controversy that has raged for over a century. Many evolutionary biologists, anthropologists and psychologists have taken these evolutionary principles and tried using them to explain a wide range of human characteristics, such as homicide, religion and sex differences in behaviour. Others, however, are sceptical of these interpretations. Moreover, researchers disagree as to the best ways to use evolution to explore humanity, and a number of schools have emerged. 'Sense and Nonsense' provides an introduction to the ideas, methods, and findings of five such schools, namely, sociobiology, human behavioural ecology, evolutionary psychology, memetics, and gene-culture co-evolution. Carefully guiding the reader through the mire of confusing terminology, claim and counter-claim, and polemical statements, Laland and Brown provide a balanced, rigorous analysis that scrutinizes both the evolutionary arguments and the allegations of the critics. This is a book that will make fascinating reading for popular science readers, undergraduate and postgraduate students (for example, in psychology, anthropology and zoology), and for experts in one approach who would like to know more about the other perspectives. Having completed this book the reader will feel better placed to assess the legitimacy of claims made about human behaviour under the name of evolution, and to make judgements as to what is sense and what is nonsense.
