Abstract

The world needs an accelerated energy transition to meet sustainable development goals. Energy planning has a critical role in providing the information that can guide decision-makers, and energy planning methods continue to evolve rapidly. This Special Issue provides new insights for long-term energy planning, drawing on the Clean Energy Ministerial Long Term Energy Planning Scenarios initiative and the IRENA LTES network.

Abstract

Why are some controversial issues covered in TV soaps and dramas and not others? How are decisions really made 'behind the scenes'? How do programme makers push boundaries without losing viewers? What do audiences take away from their viewing experience? Does TV fiction have a greater impact on public understandings than TV news? This exciting new book draws on unique empirical data to examine the relationship between popular television fiction and wider society. The book gives lively and engaging insights into how and why socially sensitive story lines were taken up by different TV programmes

Abstract

Les réalisations de Michel Audiard, un des plus grands scénaristes et dialoguistes du cinéma français, demeurent méconnues. Pourtant, la singularité de ces neuf films frappe dans le cinéma français de la fin des années 1960 et du début des années 1970, par leur ton et par leur style, par leur mise en scène et par leur écriture. Dans une filmographie de plus de 130 films, leur place s'avère d'autant plus spécifique que, durant une période de six ans (1968-1974), Audiard va y consacrer presque toute son énergie et son talent avec pour ambition de faire rire un public populaire, faire rire des moeurs de son époque, en développant un regard provocateur et grinçant. Il va montrer la faillite de la « Nouvelle Société » voulue par Pompidou, dans une galerie de portraits de pleurnichards et de paumés, de vindicatifs et de rêveurs. Cette « petite boutique » de Michel Audiard réalisateur s'est construite en collaboration avec un apprenti devenu artisan : Jean-Marie Poiré. Le futur réalisateur des Visiteurs débute avec Michel Audiard dès son premier film. Finalement, il travaillera au scénario de cinq films du metteur en scène. Après Audiard-Simenon puis Audiard-Simonin, ce troisième volume se concentre sur le duo formé par Michel Audiard et Jean-Marie Poiré, découvrant une nouvelle facette d'Audiard avec l'étude de trois films : Faut pas prendre les enfants du bon Dieu pour des canards sauvages (1968), joyeux acte de naissance de Michel Audiard réalisateur ; Le Cri du cormoran le soir au-dessus des jonques (1971), série noire humoristique qui sera son premier échec commercial ; et Comment réussir quand on est con et pleurnichard (1974), satire sociale vacharde et avant-dernier projet mis en chantier par Michel Audiard. Le présent recueil a pour ambition de montrer les auteurs au travail : les scénarios, qui divergent parfois sensiblement du film, sont accompagnés d'un appareil critique et d'une présentation qui permettent de retracer le cheminement du projet, depuis le choix du sujet jusqu'au film achevé. Des photographies et les revues de presse de l'époque viennent compléter l'ensemble. L'édition est établie par Thibaut Bruttin, qui a participé au commissariat de l'exposition consacrée à Louis de Funès à la Cinémathèque française, a dirigé avec Alain Kruger l'ouvrage Louis de Funès, à la Folie (La Martinière, 2020) et publiera prochainement une monographie sur La Soupe aux choux (Yellow Now).

Abstract

This reprint is related to land-use change and non-urban and urban relationships at all spatiotemporal scales and also focuses on land-use planning and regulatory strategies for a sustainable future. Spatiotemporal dynamics, socioeconomic implication, water supply problems and deforestation land degradation (e.g., increase of imperviousness surfaces) produced by urban expansion and their resource requirements are of particular interest. The Guest Editors expect that this reprint will contribute to sustainable development in non-urban and urban areas.

Abstract

For a sustainable future, the need to use renewable sources to produce electricity is inevitable. Some of these sources—particularly the widely available solar power—are weather-dependent; therefore, utility-scale energy storage will be more and more important. These solar and wind power fluctuations range from minutes (passing cloud) to whole seasons (winter/summer differences). Short-term storage can be solved (at least theoretically) with batteries; however, seasonal storage—due to the amount of storable energy and the self-discharging of some storage methods—is still a challenge to be solved in the near future. We believe that biological Power-to-Methane technology—especially combined with biogas refinement—will be a significant player in the energy storage market within less than a decade. The technology produces high-purity methane, which can be considered—by using green energy and carbon dioxide of biological origin—as a Renewable Natural Gas, or RNG. The ease of storage and use of methane, as well as the effective carbon-freeness, can make it a competitor for batteries or hydrogen-based storage, especially for storage times exceeding several months.

Abstract

This book focuses on the contemporary challenges faced by rural areas across the globe. These include common efforts to address food production and security; engaging with climate change and the fundamental transformations in everyday practices that this requires; the exodus of young people from rural areas; an ageing farming population; and the growth of rural poverty. The common goal throughout is one of exploring ways in which environmental, economic and social goals need to be addressed in a cohesive way while being cognizant of the diversity of people, environments, economies and traditions that exist across rural space.
