Resolving International Conflict
Author: Isabel Bramsen
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1351590758
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 275
Book Description
Resolving International Conflict rethinks the dynamics of conflict escalation and continuation by engaging with research from the wide range of subfields in this area. The book suggests a new framework for understanding conflict as a particular form of situation, interaction and tension. It shows how conflicts are shaped by varied dynamics relating to emotion, securitization, incentives, digital technology and violence; even attempts at monitoring, resolving or remembering conflicts may end up contributing to their escalation or continuation. Split into two sections, the first part focuses on the question of why and how conflicts escalate, while the second part analyses the continuation of conflict. The book features several case studies of conflict escalation and continuation - in Bahrain, Israel-Palestine, South Sudan, Northern Ireland and, most prominently, the case of the Syrian uprising and subsequent civil war. Throughout the book, and, in particular, in the conclusion, the consequences for conflict transformation are discussed. This work will be of much interest to students of conflict resolution, peace studies, war and conflict studies, security studies and international relations, in general.

Book Description
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 21st European Symposium on Programming, ESOP 2012, held in Tallinn, Estonia, as part of ETAPS 2012, in March/April 2012. The 28 full papers, presented together with one full length invited talk, were carefully reviewed and selected from 92 submissions. Papers were invited on all aspects of programming language research, including: programming paradigms and styles, methods and tools to write and specify programs and languages, methods and tools for reasoning about programs, methods and tools for implementation, and concurrency and distribution.

A Program for Transformational Syntactic Analysis
Author: Stanley Roy Petrick
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Generative grammar
Languages : en
Pages : 40
Book Description
The paper defines a class of transformational grammars and describes the operational characteristics of a program for the analysis of sentences with respect to an arbitrary member of this class of grammars. The program in question exists both in pure LISP form and in mixed LISP and IBM 7090 assembly language form. The latter is, of course, applicable only to the IBM 7090 computer, but the pure LISP program can be run on any computer with a LISP system. This program has been tested on the IBM 7044 and 7090 computers and the UNIVAC M-460 computer, and a special version has been provided for the MIT compatible time-sharing system. The paper contains the necessary information to enable a user to write his own transformational grammar and determine whether it assigns structural descriptions as intended. Computer program operating details and formats are included. These are illustrated by the analysis of several sentences with respect to a sample grammar. Typical operating performance is discussed, but a complete description of the analysis algorithm used by the program is not included. (Author).

Mathematical Foundations of Programming Semantics
Author: Stephen Brookes
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 9783540580270
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 664
Book Description
This volume is the proceedings of the Ninth International Conference on the Mathematical Foundations of Programming Semantics, held in New Orleans in April 1993. The focus of the conference series is the semantics of programming languages and the mathematics which supports the study of the semantics. The semantics is basically denotation. The mathematics may be classified as category theory, lattice theory, or logic. Recent conferences and workshops have increasingly emphasized applications of the semantics and mathematics. The study of the semantics develops with the mathematics and the mathematics is inspired by the applications in semantics. The volume presents current research in denotational semantics and applications of category theory, logic, and lattice theory to semantics.

We Cannot Continue Like This
Author: Attie S. van Niekerk
Publisher: Wipf and Stock Publishers
ISBN: 1666753033
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 265
Book Description
We Cannot Continue Like This: Facing Modernity in Africa and the West is a scholarly book strongly focused on the context of Africa, with two chapters that are written by authors from the Netherlands for the purpose of a North-South dialogue. The main thesis of the book is based on the insight that the trajectory of modern development ought not to continue as it is. It is ecologically unsustainable and continues to enlarge the gap between rich and poor. The book centers on an academic analysis of current development practices, mostly in Africa. It addresses four topics that are often neglected in studies on development and sustainability: listening to voices from Africa to counter the hegemony of the Global North; recognizing the importance of spiritual issues in the secular affairs of society; deriving theory from data that was obtained and analyzed in a systematic way, and was compared with existing theories; and illustrating the importance of households rather than just governments, businesses or academic institutions. The manuscript seeks to integrate academic reflection and insights gained from practical involvement with sustainability issues in local communities and low-income households, with contributions from natural and social sciences and theology. The authors respond to the question: How can modern science and technology help to solve dilemmas such as unsustainable development?

Business as Usual: An Assessment of Donald Rumsfeld’s Transformation Vision and Transformation’s Prospects for the Future
Author: Mark G. Czelusta
Publisher: DIANE Publishing
ISBN: 1437920578
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 61
Book Description
Donald Rumsfeld¿s vision of a transformed U.S. military has been discussed by many and understood by few, and this lack of understanding has resulted in both significant simplifications and sweeping generalizations. If Rumsfeld¿s Transformation is indeed dead, does this mean that Transformation as a greater process is dead as well? This report discusses the answers to this question, which requires one to understand first that ¿Rumsfeld¿s Transformation Vision (RTV)¿ is the result of multiple influences that predate his time in office. Second, RTV is actually an umbrella term for 3 different things: a new way of war, a process, and a defense strategy. And third, the military services shaped, and at times limited, the effectiveness of his program. Illus.
