Políticas e dinâmicas educativas
Concebido na lógica comemorativa das duas décadas de vida do CEIS20, este livro reúne a selecção de doze capítulos que podemos entender como cobrindo algumas importantes dimensões do campo epistemológico das Ciências da Educação. Um primeiro grupo de trabalhos desafia-nos a equacionar toda a problemática que começa na organização axiológica que deve envolver as práticas educativas, percorre algumas questões que se colocam às decisões de organização e ousam abordar a relação entre o conhecimento e os processos que permitem a sua aquisição e uso. Um segundo grupo de textos centra-se, de uma maneira mais particular, na necessidade de um reequacionamento permanente dos problemas que a relação entre as decisões políticas e as práticas educativas (resultantes dessas decisões e/ou impostas pelas dinâmicas pessoais e sociais) colocam.
Oportunidades económicas dos mercados voluntários de carbono no contexto das políticas agrícola e florestal
"O desafio do combate às alterações climáticas e da adaptação aos seus efeitos tem determinado uma resposta política a nível internacional e comunitária tendencialmente mais abrangente e exigente. Em linha com estas orientações, Portugal tem vindo a implementar políticas para as alterações climáticas que garantiram com sucesso o cumprimento dos objectivos estabelecidos no âmbito do primeiro período de cumprimento do Protocolo de Quioto. (...) Portugal deve contribuir para afirmar o Comércio Europeu de 22 Licenças de Emissão (CELE) como o principal instrumento da política climática europeia para 2030, sendo essencial a sua reforma estrutural. Portugal deve ainda promover a integração do sector alteração do uso do solo e floresta (LULUCF) nas metas nacionais e da UE, devendo manter-se activo na discussão relativa a esta matéria por forma a assegurar que o potencial do sector é reconhecido e promovido a nível nacional e da UE".
State and Local Population Projections
The initial plans for this book sprang from a late-afternoon conversation in a hotel bar. All three authors were attending the 1996 meeting of the Population As- ciation of America in New Orleans. While nursing drinks and expounding on a variety of topics, we began talking about our current research projects. It so happened that all three of us had been entertaining the notion of writing a book on state and local population projections. Recognizing the enormity of the project for a single author, we quickly decided to collaborate. Had we not decided to work together, it is unlikely that this book ever would have been written. The last comprehensive treatment of state and local population projections was Don Pittenger’s excellent work Projecting State and Local Populations (1976). Many changes affecting the production of population projections have occurred since that time. Technological changes have led to vast increases in computing power, new data sources, the development of GIS, and the creation of the Internet. The procedures for applying a number of projection methods have changed considerably, and several completely new methods have been developed.
Sustainable Development at Universities
This book, prepared in the context of the UN Conference on Sustainable Development (UNCSD), also known as Rio+20, contains the papers submitted to the World Symposium on Sustainable Development at Universities (WSSD-U-2012), which took place in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil on 5 and 6 June 2012. It pursues the following main aims: to document and disseminate experiences from universities all round the world regarding education for sustainable development; to foster the exchange of information, ideas and experiences acquired in the execution of projects; and to introduce methodological approaches and projects which aim to integrate the topic of sustainable development in the curriculum of universiti...
Pathways to Social Class
Calling for a broader, new approach to social mobility research,Pathways to Social Class: A Qualitative Approach to Social Mobility moves beyond pure statistics to use qualitative techniques--such as life stories and family case studies--to examine more closely the dynamics of mobility and address more fundamental sociological questions. Up to now, the extensive sociological literature on mobility has been based around the survey method. As a result, we have access to abundant statistical data, but there is little information available to explain how and why people follow particular life paths. To overcome these limitations, Bertaux and Thompson have developed an alternative, complementary a...
Towards Knowledge Societies
Urges governments to expand quality education for all, increase community access to information and communication technology, and improve cross-border scientific knowledge-sharing, in an effort to narrow the digital and "knowledge" divides between the North and South and move towards a "smart" form of sustainable human development.
