Mit dem Vierjahresplan von 1936 unternahm die nationalsozialistische Führung den Versuch, den überkommenen Privatkapitalismus mit staatlicher Kommandowirtschaft zu vereinbaren. Beherrschendes Motiv war dabei der Gedanke der Autarkie - der Inbegriff der absoluten Souveränität des nationalen Machtstaates. Der Vierjahresplan sollte das Dritte Reich kriegsfähig machen. Er veränderte aber zugleich sowohl die politische wie die Wirtschafts-Verfassung Deutschlands. Die Untersuchung Dieter Petzinas hat die gesamte Komplexität dieses Themas zum Gegenstand und gibt einen Einblick sowohl in die Herrschaftsausübung des NS-Regimes wie in die besondere Gestaltung des Verhältnisses von Staat und Wirtschaft im Dritten Reich.

Questões contemporâneas como as que remetem para conceitos de ponto de referência natural, de sustentabilidade ou sobre o impacto antrópico nas variáveis ambientais carecem, mais do que nunca, duma aproximação prudente e fundamentada. Demasiadas vezes em demasiados contextos, a leitura excitada e "tremendista" de acontecimentos naturais tem conduzido ao alarmismo na comunicação social e à manipulação social e política das comunidades a diferentes escalas.

This book demystifies the models we use to simulate present and future climates, allowing readers to better understand how to use climate model results. In order to predict the future trajectory of the Earth’s climate, climate-system simulation models are necessary. When and how do we trust climate model predictions? The book offers a framework for answering this question. It provides readers with a basic primer on climate and climate change, and offers non-technical explanations for how climate models are constructed, why they are uncertain, and what level of confidence we should place in them. It presents current results and the key uncertainties concerning them. Uncertainty is not a weakness but understanding uncertainty is a strength and a key part of using any model, including climate models. Case studies of how climate model output has been used and how it might be used in the future are provided. The ultimate goal of this book is to promote a better understanding of the structure and uncertainties of climate models among users, including scientists, engineers and policymakers.

Social practice theories help to challenge the often hidden paradigms, worldviews, and values at the basis of many unsustainable practices. Discourses and their boundaries define what is seen as possible, as well as the range of issues and their solutions. By exploring the connections between practices and discourses, Minna Kanerva develops a conceptual approach enabling purposive change in unsustainable social practices. Radical transformation towards new meatways is arguably necessary, yet complex psychological, ideological, and power-related mechanisms currently inhibit change.

Calgary, Alberta is a culturally diverse urban metropolis. Sprawling and car-dependent, fast-growing and affluent, it is dominated by the fossil fuel industry. For 30 years, Calgary has struggled to turn sustainability rhetoric into reality.Sustainability Matters is the story of Calgary’s setbacks and successes on the path toward sustainability. Chronicling two decades of public conversations, political debate, urban policy and planning, and scholarly discovery, it is both a fascinating case study and an accessible introduction to the theory and practice of urban sustainability. A clear-eyed view of the struggles of turning knowledge into action, this book illuminates the places where theory and reality converge and presents an approach to municipal development, planning, and governance that takes seriously the urgent need to address climate change and injustice.Addressing a wide variety of topics and themes, including energy, diversity, economic development, and ecological health, Sustainability Matters is both a critique of current practice and a vision for the future that uses the city of Calgary as a microcosm to address issues faced by cities around the world. This is essential reading not only for every Calgarian working for a vibrant and sustainable future, but for all those interested in in the future of cities in a post-carbon world.
