Mediation, Conciliation, and Emotions: The Role of Emotional Climate in Understanding Violence and Mental Illness, Revised Edition, Ladd Peter D., Blanchfield Kyle E.
The election and inauguration of Donald J. Trump as the president of the United States of America have provoked an unprecedented intensity of reflection in virtually all academic disciplines. The professions of architecture and planning, faced with the phenomenon of a self-proclaimed "Builder-in-Chief," have found themselves facing a series of fundamental questions, both old and new. How should we think, teach, and practice under a developer presidency? What sort of walls will we and won't we choose to build? What are our commitments of critical thought, and what obligations should we turn our energies toward?
The essays gathered in And Now explore the nature of architecture's many long-standing complicities. Architecture coordinates colossal expenditures (of material, of energy); it scripts forms of labor (in its construction, in its operation, and in the programs it houses); and it is both a repository and generator of capital. Architecture participates, centrally, in defining modes of life, whether for the privileged or the dispossessed--designing and building the boundaries between the "haves" and the "have-nots." This fundamental reality of architectural practice need not inspire either nihilism or defensiveness but should rather be understood, quite simply, as the terrain we navigate. Naming these complicities and the injustices they perpetuate is a first step toward addressing them.
And Now includes essays by Ananya Roy, Teddy Cruz and Fonna Forman, Laura Kunreuther, Ann Lui, Alexandra Delano Alonso, Manuel Shvartzberg Carrio, Shela Shekh, Anooradha Iyer Siddiqi, Rebecca Choi, Rachel Weber, and others.
Описание: Modern Management Methods asks how the value of a building is produced through instruments of expertise, management ideologies, and historical narratives. It uses the imaging techniques of conservation and the documentary detritus of heritage preservation to show how scientific methods attempt to produce stable notions of history and value.

Описание: Fratricide remains one of the most challenging problems of the modern battlespace. Fratricide incidents have occurred in every major conflict in history and continue to increase. The fratricide fatality rate was significantly high during Desert Storm in 1991, the most recent major conflict involving offensive joint air and ground forces. Despite specific attention to this problem during a short war in which joint forces had an overwhelming combat advantage, the fratricide rate was an alarming 24%. Consequently, fratricide has remained a priority issue for the military throughout this decade. This monograph suggests that current efforts to minimize fratricide have focused too exclusively on technological solutions. There is a severe lack of integration and synchronization efforts within this technology explosion, particularly for the surface-to-surface and air-to-surface mission areas. Since there are diverse technologies within the independent services that must operate jointly in the battlespace, a systemic approach is critical. After an examination of the joint air identification system, the monograph concludes that it is successful because it is an integrated network of air and ground elements that each contribute to a synergistic product, a single integrated air picture. AWACS, as a centralized battle management radar platform, performs a unique role in this network. This monograph demonstrates that JSTARS is capable of performing a similar role for the surface environment. JSTARS has the capability to develop and disseminate common pictures, at both tactical and operational levels. JSTARS can figure prominently in support of attack operations. JSTARS is a critical fusion platform that begins the melding process of the separate surface and air pictures into a common joint awareness. This study concludes that a systemic approach must be utilized to reduce fratricide within the surface-to-surface and air-to-surface mission areas. Current technologies must be inte
