The special issue of plant diversity in Southeast Asia will focus on the documentation of new discoveries in SE Asia. There are four global biodiversity hotspots in Southeast Asia. Although there are many plans to protect this rich biodiversity, however, the rich biodiversity in SE Asia is under threat due to economic development and population growth. There is a huge gap between our knowledge and biodiversity in SE Asia. During the last six investigations, many new taxa, including new species, new genera, have been discovered. This special issue will bring the rich but little known biodiversity to the public and protect them.

S'inscrivant dans une approche d'anthropologie de l'environnement, cet article analyse la diversité des pratiques environnementales dans la communauté de Las Canas, diversité qui s'appuie sur l'hétérogénéité de sa population ainsi que sur le contexte révolutionnaire du pays. Les transformations qui ont vu le jour dans les activités liées à la pêche, au tourisme et à la conservation des ressources naturelles ont généré de nouvelles pratiques et perceptions, offrant un espace de survie aux habitants. Conditionnée par des changements économiques et politiques structurels, cette diversité interne donne lieu à des redéfinitions quotidiennes des relations à l'environnement tout en permettant aux habitants de recréer, à petite échelle, leur révolution. Adopting an environmental anthropology approach, this article analyzes the diverse environmental practices in the community of Las Canas, a diversity that is based on both the population's heterogeneity and the country's revolutionary context. The transformations that have occurred in fishing, tourism and natural resource conservation have generated new practices and perceptions, and provided opportunities for a better quality of life. Affected by structural economic and political changes, this diversity has given rise to a constant redefinition of the inhabitants' relationship with the environment, while allowing them to recreate, on a human scale, their own revolution. Inscrito en la óptica antropológica del medio ambiente, este artículo analiza la diversidad de las prácticas ambientalistas en la comunidad de Las Cañas, diversidad que se apoya en la heterogeneidad de su población así como en el contexto revolucionario del país. Las transformaciones que han surgido en las actividades ligadas a la pesca, al turismo y la conservación de los recursos naturales han generado nuevas prácticas y percepciones, abriendo un espacio para la supervivencia de los habitantes. Condicionada por los cambios económicos y políticos estructurales, su diversidad interna motiva redefiniciones cotidianas de sus relaciones con el medio ambiente permitiendo la recreación, a pequeña escala, de su revolución.

Diversity and multiculturalism have become pervasive in today’s organizations. Facets of Managing in Cross-Cultural Diversity is a timely publication critically exploring the phenomenon of managing in cross-cultural diversity. This book offers important insights on real issues and studies into management in a cross-cultural, global environment, and uncovers the issues from macro and group-individual perspectives. Unlike most publications on diversity which are limited to a single country’s experience, this book brings together authors who write about and study workplace diversity in the context of different countries and cultures.

Why do larger areas have more species? What makes diversity so high near the equator? Has the number of species grown during the past 600 million years? Does habitat diversity support species diversity, or is it the other way around? What reduces diversity in ecologically productive places? At what scales of space and time do diversity patterns hold? Do the mechanisms that produce them vary with scale? This book examines these questions and many others, by employing both theory and data in the search for answers. Surprisingly, many of the questions have reasonably likely answers. By identifying these, attention can be turned toward life's many, still-unexplained diversity patterns. As evolutionary ecologists race to understand biodiversity before it is too late, this book will help set the agenda for diversity research into the next century.
