Series Statement: Hurricane Risk, 3

Content: Tropical cyclones (including hurricanes) are becoming more destructive. Rising seas are resulting in greater storm surge inundation. More moisture-laden, warmer air is leading to heavier rains. There is also mounting evidence for more powerful winds and a greater incidence of the strongest storms. Do we fully understand these changes, and what will these changes mean for society? Arising from the 2024 Symposium on Hurricane Risk in a Changing Climate, this book contains new research on hurricane behavior, our vulnerability, and how we communicate the risk. This book is essential reading to understand the future of tropical cyclone risk and what it means for society.

Series Statement: Hurricane Risk, 2

Content: How is a changing climate affecting hurricanes, and how are these changes intersecting with our changing exposure and vulnerability in ways that affect tropical cyclone risk? Crucially, how should this understanding be incorporated into risk management practice? This book takes a cross-sectoral look at how damaging tropical cyclone characteristics are changing and presents novel approaches to integrate science with risk assessment. In this new era of tropical cyclone impacts, understanding effective risk management practice in a changing climate is more important than ever. This book details the outcomes of new research focusing on climate risk related to hurricanes in a changing climate. Topics include characteristics of tropical cyclone risk, perspectives on hurricane risk management strategies in the built environment, and implications for commercial risk. Inspired by the Symposium on Hurricane Risk in a Changing Climate, this book brings together leading international academics and researchers, and provides a source reference for both risk managers and climate scientists for research on the interface between tropical cyclones, climate, and risk. 8 chapters are available open access under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License via link.springer.com.

Content: Este libro es elaborado en un contexto de emergencia de varios movimientos sociales en los países andinos a inicios del tercer milenio, cuando surgen nuevas inquietudes en torno a su papel en los procesos de democratización. Desde distintas perspectivas disciplinarias, los artículos aquí recogidos examinan la relación entre democracia, cambio político y movimientos sociales, así como el papel que los procesos identitarios y la acción colectiva basada en aspectos culturales juegan en acciones de movilización social. Por otra parte, analiza la función que los movimientos indígenas de Ecuador, Perú y Colombia han desempeñado en los procesos políticos de países con problemáticas distintas. Y, finalmente, en el marco de un proceso de descentralización del poder político y de procesos de reactivación de formas de organización de la 'sociedad civil' -como la organización comunitaria- se estudia cómo la autogestión y la acción colectiva reivindicativa testifican que existen varias dinámicas de cambio social y político que pueden ser contradictorias. Este libro, por tanto, subraya la necesidad de volver a pensar el 'cambio político' y sus vínculos con el cambio sociocultural de las sociedades andinas, tanto en términos teóricos como empíricos. Este libro recoge contribuciones de investigadores europeos, norteamericanos y de los países andinos que, desde distintas disciplinas -antropología, sociología, ciencias políticas y la historia- interrogan el momento actual que viven los países de la región andina.
