Zustand: New. Idioma/Language: Español. Dimensiones del conflicto: resistencia, violencia y policía en el mundo urbano ofrece una galería de expresiones del conflicto y de formas de recomposición del mismo en contextos diversos, entre el Antiguo Régimen y las sociedades liberales. La perspectiva transfronteriza y comparativa que se adopta en esta obra ofrece una panorámica contrastada sobre las concreciones del conflicto y el orden, sobre los factores, discursos, imaginarios y actores que participaron en los procesos de cambio histórico a través de la resistencia, la violencia y la policía en los espacios urbanos de este amplio periodo histórico. Con un enfoque multidisciplinar, este libro se abre, así, a una reflexión global sobre el conflicto, la disciplina y la paz pública en las ciudades; considera un amplio encuadre espacial, que conecta experiencias europeas y otras de Asia y América y, al mismo tiempo, ofrece una panorámica diacrónica, que analiza las transiciones hacia la modernidad. *** Nota: Los envíos a España peninsular, Baleares y Canarias se realizan a través de mensajería urgente.

Tapa blanda. Zustand: New. En 2014, Miguel de Cervantes y Saavedra fue objeto del interés mediático cuando se abrió una cripta del convento de las Trinitarias, en Madrid, en busca de sus restos. Todo un equipo de forenses, arqueólogos, antropólogos y otros 36 expertos -después de muchos trabajos y desvelos- sólo pudieron concluir que, sus huesos, «quizá, es posible. se encuentren fragmentados y mezclados con los de otros dieciseis, incluida su esposa».Una década después, el inmortal autor volvería a convertirse en actualidad cuando, desde algún círculo académico, se coqueteó con la posibilidad de que este hubiera nacido en Córdoba. Esta afirmación no sólo sería rápidamente confrontada, sino que la propia Sevilla se sumaría como candidata a ser la cuna de Cervantes.Los autores de "La sombra de Cervantes en Córdoba" nos ofrecen, entre el más tiguroso ensayo y una ágil y absorbente ficción histórica, la relación del autor con la ciudad, cuyos rincones -posada del Potro, calle Osario, plaza de la Corredera.- dejarían una honda impronta, quedando esta grabada en su obra.…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Over the last three decades drought episodes have resulted in severe social problems in Mediterranean countries, receiving broad attention from the international scientific and policy communities. The experiences in the development and implementation of drought management plans highlight the success and challenges of coping with drought for societies with different vulnerabilities and emphasize risk-based drought management as a critical approach to mitigate the impacts associated to drought-induced water shortages. Based on these experiences and the current methods for evaluating risk, the book synthesises guidelines for drought management that link science and policy and that can be applied to other regions. The book comprises a collection of papers divided into four sections that appeal to a broad audience. First, the social and hydrological context of Mediterranean countries is presented, discussing the interactions that have resulted in the complex institutional framework, and highlighting the importance of stakeholder involvement and awareness building for successful drought management. This section emphasises the role of organizations, institutions, and civil stakeholders involved in drought preparedness and mitigation and/or on water management for designing effective risk based strategies that mitigate the effects of drought in agriculture and water supply systems. Second, the book presents an academic approach to risk evaluation, including characterization of drought episodes, development of indicators of risk in hydrological and agricultural systems, and analysis of the role of economic instruments and groundwater for risk mitigation. This section finalises with the description of an integrated method for evaluating social vulnerability based on indicators that include the capacity to anticipate, cope, and respond to drought.The third section includes a collection of case studies that include the description of effective measures taken in the past. These case studies provide the context for developing demand driven guidelines that may be applied to other regions. The authors of these chapters can be viewed as stakeholders in drought management, since they represent a broad range of sectors and institutions from Mediterranean European and North African countries. The topics addressed have implications for the international policy community interested in disaster mitigation, agricultural policy, and development. Finally a synthesis of the management actions is presented in four chapters. Monitoring and preparedness planning is the essential first step for moving from disaster to risk management in response to drought. The management actions related to agriculture and water supply systems are presented in two different chapters but with a common conceptual framework based on the use of drought indicators for evaluating the levels of drought risk (pre-alert, alert, and emergency), that allow establishing linkages between science and policy. The final chapter discuses the lessons learned and application to other regions.…

Paperback. Zustand: New. The Inter-American Development Bank (IDB), in cooperation with the International Water Association (IWA), has developed a rating system that assesses the performance of water and sanitation service providers in a comprehensive way. AquaRating: An international standard for assessing water and wastewater services aims to provide an industry standard for utilities. The innovative rating system seeks the improvement of the service delivered by means of a rigorous and systematic assessment. AquaRating comprises more than 100 assessment elements organized in eight rating areas: Service Quality, Efficiency in the Planning and Execution of Investments, Operating Efficiency, Business Management Efficiency, Financial Sustainability, Access to Service, Corporate Governance, Environmental Sustainability. Each of the assessment elements and consecutively rating areas is assigned a rating (from 0 to 100), which in turn are aggregated into a single rating for the utility. Assessment elements consist of qualitative good practices and quantitative indicators. The total compliance with practices and achievement of the most demanding indicators levels means delivery of an excellent service and, therefore, awards a maximum rating of 100 points. AquaRating takes into account the quality of the information supporting the ratings results by correcting the rating for the reliability level of such information. The rating results are certifiable thanks to an independent audit of the supporting information. The expected benefits of the system are manifold: . Utilities - Identify areas of improvement, receive guidance and monitor progress over time. - Obtain an external and credible performance rating, which contributes to foster reputation, accountability and acceptance by key stakeholders, gain access to new markets and finance, and attract qualified staff. - Get access to a knowledge and assessment framework that fosters continuous learning. . Governments, regulators and development agencies - Use the system to stimulate utilities to maintain or improve their performance and to target technical assistance and finance according to the specific opportunities for improvement identified. . Consumers - Obtain better services in terms of access, quality, efficiency, sustainability and transparency.…

Paperback. Zustand: New. The IWA Performance Indicator System for water services is now recognized as a worldwide reference. Since it first appearance in 2000, the system has been widely quoted, adapted and used in a large number of projects both for internal performance assessment and metric benchmarking. Water professionals have benefited from a coherent and flexible system, with precise and detailed definitions that in many cases have become a standard. The system has proven to be adaptable and it has been used in very different contexts for diverse purposes. The Performance Indicators System can be used in any organization regardless of its size, nature (public, private, etc.) or degree of complexity and development. The third edition of Performance Indicators for Water Supply Services represents a further improvement of the original manual. It contains a reviewed and consolidated version of the indicators, resulting from the real needs of water companies worldwide that were expressed during the extensive field testing of the original system. The indicators now properly cover bulk distribution and the needs of developing countries, and all definitions have been thoroughly revised. The confidence grading scheme has been simplified and the procedure to assess the results- uncertainty has been significantly enhanced. In addition to the updated contents of the original edition, a large part of the manual is now devoted to the practical application of the system. Complete with simplified step-by-step implementation procedures and case studies, the manual provides guidelines on how to adapt the IWA concepts and indicators to specific contexts and objectives. This new edition of Performance Indicators for Water Supply Services is an invaluable reference source for all those concerned with managing the performance of the water supply industry, including those in the water utilities as well as regulators, policy-makers and financial agencies.…
