Paperback. Condición: New. Most explanations for the bumpy post-independence trajectory of many countries in Africa and the Middle East presuppose the existence of an objective, universal development format, modelled on western European civilisational principles. Decolonising International Solidarity argues that the supposed universality of the civilisational model that was 'offered' during and after colonisation in exchange for the 'resources' of Africa and the Middle East was flawed, not only in its social, cultural, political, economic and historical underpinnings but also in its environmental assumptions. The latter is a dimension that has, surprisingly, received little attention in post-independence literature on colonisation. This natural environmental lens on development challenges also offers an innovative perspective on current issues of governance, agricultural development and environmental management, multiculturalism and migration in developing and rich countries. The book concludes with some proposals for a decolonised global solidarity framework that values rather than erases diversity.…

Hardback. Condición: New. Examines how colonial powers disrupted African and Middle Eastern civilisations, creating lasting development challenges and argues that understanding the specific environmental and historical contexts in which civilisations developed can guide decolonised approaches to aid, governance, multiculturalism and global solidarity.Numerous authors have wondered why, in so many countries, the 'colonial freight train' of schools, roads, mines, plantations and legal systems stalled or even derailed after Independence. Many answers have been offered to this question. However, most of those fail to give sufficient weight to the crucial differences in the physical realities in which the civilisations of both coloniser and colonised had evolved, as well as to the profound culture shock which independence brought to the populations that had been conquered, ruled and re-moulded by another civilisation, for so long.Decolonising International Solidarity explains how colonisers profoundly uprooted the civilisations they encountered across Africa and the Middle East. These civilisations had evolved in the face of serious soil constraints, a high degree of climatic unpredictability and frequent natural disasters. The colonising powers attempted to replace them with their own civilisation that had evolved in much more favourable environmental conditions, a stable climate and infrequent natural disaster. The impact of this transformation created a legacy that seriously constrained the development of the new states that arose when the colonisers left.The persistence of this colonialist civilisational project still affects us today, in overseas development assistance, and in migration and community relations in the colonisers' home countries. Decolonising International Solidarity argues that a better understanding of the different conditions in which civilisations evolved prior to, during and after the colonial era offers opportunities for improved development outcomes and an appreciation of the historical pathways of the communities involved. This better understanding translates into a counter-narrative about core civilisational values that respects and builds on diversity rather than on an assumed superior, universal Western model. This suggests innovative approaches to multi-culturalism and migration in Europe, economic development and governance in formerly colonised countries, aid and colonial reparations. The book concludes with a call for a new era of Global Solidarity based on global compacts and equality among partners, as are being piloted under the climate negotiations. Thus, the book concludes, genuine decolonisation can finally begin.…

Hardcover. Condición: Fine. Leichte Kratzer / Abnutzungen / Druckstellen; Leichte Verformung / umgeknickte Seiten; Leichte Verschmutzung / Farbtonveränderung. Finding exact solutions to many combinatorial optimization problems in business, engineering, and science remains challenging, despite advances in mathematical programming and computer technology. New application fields, such as computational biology, electronic commerce, and supply chain management, introduce additional challenges that necessitate novel algorithms and optimization techniques. Metaheuristics serve as master procedures that enhance the performance of subordinate heuristics, yielding improved approximate solutions to complex optimization problems compared to simpler algorithms. They offer fast and robust tools that generate high-quality solutions within reasonable computation times. The field of metaheuristics has rapidly evolved, with techniques like simulated annealing, tabu search, genetic algorithms, scatter search, greedy randomized adaptive search, variable neighborhood search, and ant systems emerging as some of the most effective optimization strategies for real-life problems. Numerous successful applications of metaheuristics are documented in literature, spanning various books, journals, and conference proceedings. International conferences dedicated to the theory, applications, and computational advancements in metaheuristics have seen a growing number of participants from both academia and industry.…

Houten, Bohn Stafleu van Loghum, 2007. 1e druk 157 pp. Pb . Bij stoornisgerichte en protocollaire behandelingen staat de toepassing van specifieke behandelprocedures centraal. In dit boek wordt het belang van aangetoonde effectieve behandelprocedures onderschreven, maar wordt tevens benadrukt dat het de pati? nten zelf zijn die met die procedures veranderingen bij zichzelf moeten bewerkstelligen. Behandelprocedures moeten daarom niet alleen worden uitgelegd maar ook acceptabel en wenselijk worden gemaakt. Van de kant van de therapeut vereist dit deskundigheid, fijngevoeligheid en empathie. Aan de orde komen motiveringsstrategie? n in de voorbereidingsfase, activeringsfase en volhardingsfase. Naam franse titelpag. Verder in fraaie staat.…
