Content: Dans un monde confronté aux changements climatiques et à des pandémies en lien avec la destruction des milieux naturels, les enjeux liés à la préservation de la biodiversité sont dorénavant bien connus et ont donné lieu à des accords internationaux majeurs, comme le protocole de Nagoya. Dans ce contexte mondial, les recherches menées au Sud sont primordiales. Les contributions rédigées ici par des chercheurs dʼAfrique, de lʼocéan Indien, dʼAsie du Sud-Est et dʼEurope traduisent la vigueur de la recherche sur la biodiversité dans les pays intertropicaux francophones. Documenter la diversité des écosystèmes végétaux locaux, mieux connaître les savoirs traditionnels et les utilisations populaires des plantes ou des champignons, valoriser le rôle des collections botaniques, identifier des chaînes de valorisation économique responsables, gérer durablement les écosystèmes et leurs ressources, élaborer des outils stratégiques pour une gouvernance environnementale basée sur la science et, enfin, montrer la nécessité de lʼimplication citoyenne et de lʼensemble des acteurs concernés, tels sont les grands thèmes déclinés ici. Cet ouvrage collectif intéressera tous ceux qui travaillent sur la biodiversité des écosystèmes intertropicaux. Il souligne la nécessité dʼune science de lʼaction au service du développement durable.

Content: 〈b〉In this open access book, Aliou Ly draws on extensive archival sources and documents an entirely new oral history of the Portuguese Guinea Liberation War that corrects the gender bias inherent in many current accounts of the war.〈/b〉 〈b〉 〈/b〉The Portuguese Guinea Liberation War is a major episode in 20th-century decolonization, as Portugual's defeat ultimately led to their abrupt withdrawal from their African colonies in 1974. Yet current accounts of the war, both popular and scholarly, usually focus on the charisma of male leaders and on male-dominated high politics and ideology, and they rarely ask how women contributed to independence. Summarizing extensive interviews with women who participated in the war as spies, guerrilla fighters, and weapons transporters. Ly shows that women played major roles in winning the war, this largely because their motives for participating were often uniquely concrete: unlike most male participants, for example, many women joined the struggle in order to help fight for their families' food security. Ly also shows how women faced discrimination both during the war and immediately afterwards. They had to fight internally to be able to engage in active combat, and they returned to home to find that they were expected to take a back seat in the post-independence era, a trend that continues to this day. 〈i〉 〈/i〉〈i〉The ebook editions of this book are available open access under a CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 licence on bloomsburycollections.com.

Content: Lassa virus causes Lassa fever disease in several countries in West Africa, where it is estimated to infect up to half million people causing roughly five thousand deaths each year. This deadly virus has also been introduced in multiple occasions into the western world, including the United States, United Kingdom, Netherlands, Sweden, and Germany. Lassa virus infection, which is often misdiagnosed, can lead to a wide range of disease symptoms ranging from mild flu-like symptoms to bleeding disorders, multi-organ failure, and death. Despite some major discoveries made in recent years of research on Lassa fever, there are still many unresolved key issues that hamper the development of effective vaccines and therapies. Some of these issues include a detailed understanding of the viral and participating host factors in completing the virus life cycle, in mediating disease pathogenesis or protection, and in activating or suppressing host immune responses against virus infection. This book is devoted to understanding some of these important issues. Expert and timely contributions in the form of editorial and original research and review articles on Lassa fever viral replication, disease pathogenesis and protection, host immune modulations, and other related hot topics are presented in this publication.

Content: This book is the result of the first interdisciplinary conference in Vietnam which took place on "the Rule of Law." Instead of beginning immediately with a highly specialized debate from the perspective of one single academic discipline, we started to discuss numerous facets of the subject arising from a multidisciplinary dialogue. For this reason, the contributions for this publication come from various scientific disciplines in Vietnam and Germany: political, historical, social, economic and legal sciences, but also members of Vietnamese governmental and non-governmental organizations. The aim of the volume is to open up a dialogue about the Rule of Law between two very different legal cultures, the German-European and the Vietnamese-Southeast Asian.

Content: In this period of high uncertainty about future economic growth, we have developed a growth projection tool for 13 advanced countries and the euro area at the 2100 horizon. This high uncertainty is reflected in the debate on the possibility of a “secular stagnation”, fueled by the short-lived Information and Communication Technology (ICT) shock and the current low productivity and GDP growth in advanced countries. Our projection tool allows for the modelling of technology shocks, for different speeds of regulation and education convergence, with endogenous capital growth and TFP convergence processes. We illustrate the benefits of this tool through four growth scenarios, crossing the cases of a new technology shock or secular stagnation with those of regulation and education convergence or of absence of reforms. Over the period 2015-2100, the secular stagnation scenario assumes yearly TFP growth of 0.6% in the US, leading to a 1.5% GDP growth trend. The technology shock scenario assumes that the third technological revolution will, in the US, provide similar TFP gains to electricity during the second industrial revolution, leading to a 1.4% TFP trend, to which we add a TFP growth wave peaking in 2040, and thus to an average GDP growth rate of 3%. In non-US countries, GDP growth will depend on the implementation of regulation reforms, the increase in education and on the distance to the country-specific convergence target, namely the US, as well. Over the period 2015-2060, for the euro area, Japan and the United Kingdom, benefits from regulation and education convergence would amount to a 0.1 to 0.4 pp yearly growth rate depending on the initial degree both of rigidity and the TFP distance to the US.

Series Statement: Technical and Vocational Education and Training: Issues, Concerns and Prospects, 25

Content: This edited book addresses a range of aspects of internationalization in vocational education and training (VET) in different countries. It considers the impact of internationalization and student mobility on VET at the sectoral, institutional and individual levels as the sector emerges as a key tool for social and structural change in developing nations and as a flexible and entrepreneurial means of growth in developed nations. The book explores not only the effects of the neo-liberal market principle underpinning VET practices and reforms, but importantly considers internationalization as a powerful force for change in vocational education and training. As the first volume in the world that examines internationalization practices in VET, the book provides VET and international education policymakers, practitioners, researchers and educators with both conceptual knowledge and practical insights into the implementation of internationalization in VET. .
