Описание: What is meat? Is it simply food to consume, or a metaphor for our own bodies? Can “bloody” vegan burgers, petri dish beef, live animals, or human milk be categorized as meat? In pursuing these questions, the contributors to Meat! trace the shifting boundaries of the meanings of meat across time, geography, and cultures. In studies of chicken, fish, milk, barbecue, fake meat, animal sacrifice, cannibalism, exotic meat, frozen meat, and other manifestations of meat, they highlight meat's entanglements with race, gender, sexuality, and disability. From the imperial politics embedded in labeling canned white tuna as “the chicken of the sea” to the relationship between beef bans, yoga, and bodily purity in Hindu nationalist politics, the contributors demonstrate how meat is an ideal vantage point from which to better understand transnational circuits of power and ideology as well as the histories of colonialism, ableism, and sexism.

Описание:
China's rise to great-power status is one of the most significant issues of the twenty-first century. Will the People's Republic be able to complete this process peacefully? And what are the security, economic and governance implications for the rest of the world?
The majority of scholars approach these questions from one of two perspectives: competitive security and power (realism) or complementary economic self-interest (liberalism). In this book, Christopher Herrick, Zheya Gai and Surain Subramaniam offer a constructivist alternative, arguing that China's prospects for achieving great-power status peacefully depend more on domestic and international perceptions of the country's rise - perceptions rooted in such factors as historical experience and national image.
Early chapters explore the Chinese mindset and historical experience, as well as foreign attitudes to China and applicable international relations theory. The authors then proceed to look at three dimensions of Chinese policy - security, economics and governance - situating them within the context of China's relations with Asian neighbours (India, Japan and the states of Southeast Asia), existing international powers (the European Union, Russia and the United States) and emergent trading partners (Africa). At the heart of the book is an analysis of how increased economically beneficial trade with China affects historically based negative perceptions.
Accessible enough for undergraduates but full of material that will challenge academics and policymakers, China's peaceful rise is essential reading for those with interests in Chinese foreign policy, East Asia and international relations.

Barriers to commercial and industrial energy efficiency improvements in Klang Valley, Malaysia are more pronounced due to the existence of factors such as weak policy and regulatory frameworks, economic and financial constraints, lack of information, and other issues. This research utilized a qualitative research methodology using a phenomenology approach aimed at enhancing the knowledge of commercial and industrial energy efficiency in Klang Valley, Malaysia by investigating the barriers associated with the implementation of energy efficiency measure. The eleven main themes and twenty-eight sub-themes identified from the study revealed that energy is poorly managed in the various commercial and industrial sectors and that there is an energy efficiency gap resulting from the low implementation of energy efficiency measures.
In addition, the study revealed that the most important factors impeding the implementation of cost-effective energy efficiency technologies in the organizations are principally economic and financial barriers such as lack of budget funding and access to capital. The study also revealed that these economic and financial barriers are linked to the lack of adequate government framework for commercial and industrial energy efficiency. The study also showed that market factors related to cost reductions resulting from lowered energy use and threats of rising energy prices are the most important drivers for adapting energy efficiency technologies. To motivate energy efficiency, there should be established standards, guidelines, roadmaps, regulations, and enforcement of regulation suitable for the local environment, which at present has not been executed completely in Malaysia.

Описание: In a stimulating interchange between feminist studies and biology, Banu Subramaniam explores how her dissertation on flower color variation in morning glories launched her on an intellectual odyssey that engaged the feminist studies of sciences in the experimental practices of science by tracing the central and critical idea of variation in biology.
Subramaniam reveals the histories of eugenics and genetics and their impact on the metaphorical understandings of difference and diversity that permeate common understandings of differences among people exist in contexts that seem distant from the so-called objective hard sciences. Journeying into interdisciplinary areas that range from the social history of plants to speculative fiction, Subramaniam uncovers key relationships between the life sciences, women's studies, evolutionary and invasive biology, and the history of ecology, and how ideas of diversity and difference emerged and persist in each field.
