Описание: This study covers the economic history of Latin America from independence in the 1820s to the present, stressing the differences between Latin American countries while recognizing the external influences to which the whole region has been subject. This revised third edition contains a wealth of new material that draws on the new research in this area.
Описание: This book shows that new centers of Christianity have taken root in the global south. Stephen Offutt argues that local and global religious social forces, as opposed to other social, economic, or political forces, are primarily responsible for the social developments in these communities.
Описание: This book seeks to develop a new conceptual framework for understanding different types of welfare regime in a range of countries in Asia, Latin America and Africa and makes an important contribution to the literature by breaking away from the traditional focus on Europe and North America.

Описание:
"Low-carbon Energy Security from a European Perspective" draws on the European Commission s funded project MILESECURE-2050 project. It considers low-carbon energy security and energy geopolitics in Europe, with a focus on four thematic clusters:
Challenging the energy security paradigm Climate change and energy security objectives (the components of a secure and low-carbon energy system) Energy security in a geopolitical perspective, as it relates to economics, resource competition, and availability The influence of large scale renewable energy projects on energy security and shift geopolitical alliances
An overarching narrative is that optimizing the energy system simultaneously across different objectives may be impossible (i.e., lowest cost, least environmental impact, minimal downtime, regional supply).
This book explores these charged topics through insights from a series of novel, new energy project case studies demonstrates the need for difficult political conversations, within Europe and beyond, by posing fundamental, yet new questions about the energy security paradigm. Offers a unique perspective on low-carbon energy security by considering the assumptions behind current energy security needs Suggests the benefit of envisioning energy security through out-of-the-box scenario development in respect to the energy system. Includes energy in an International Scenario with case studies from Africa, Russia, Ukraine, Morroco, China, Souith America and Europe."
Описание: This book focuses on the low-carbon technologies presented at the Expo 2010 in Shanghai, covering the utilization and application of renewable energy, new-type low-carbon technologies, low-carbon construction, water treatment, waste disposal and low-carbon transportation, etc.
Описание: This book offers comprehensive coverage of current energy policy in Scotland focussing on non-fossil fuel energy options: renewables, nuclear power and energy efficiency.

Описание:
This book investigates the role of gas networks in future low-carbon energy systems, and discusses various decarbonisation pathways, providing insights for gas network operators, developers, and policy makers. As more countries around the world move towards low-carbon energy systems and increase their exploitation of renewable energy sources, the use of natural gas and the associated infrastructure is expected to undergo a substantial transformation. As such there is a great uncertainty regarding the future role of gas networks and how they will be operated in coming years.
The topics addressed include:
Fundamentals of gas network operation
The impact of variable renewable electricity generation on the operation and expansion of gas networks
The impact of decarbonising heat supplies on gas networks
Opportunities and challenges of utilising gas networks to transport alternative low-carbon gases such as bio-methane and hydrogen
Описание: This book focuses on the low-carbon technologies presented at the Expo 2010 in Shanghai, covering the utilization and application of renewable energy, new-type low-carbon technologies, low-carbon construction, water treatment, waste disposal and low-carbon transportation, etc.
