 Hegel's Actuality Chapter of the Science of Logic A Commentary【電子書籍】[ Nahum Brown ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞This book explores Hegel’s theory of modality (actuality, possibility, necessity, contingency) through extremely close textual analysis of the “Actuality” chapter of Hegel’s Science of Logic. The “Actuality” chapter is the equivalence of Aristotle’s momentous Metaphysics book 9. Because of this, Hegel’s chapter deserves the same thorough investigation into its complex insights and argumentation. This book situates Hegel’s insights about possibility and necessity within historical and contemporary debates about metaphysics, while analyzing some of the most controversial themes of Hegel’s theory, such as the question of the ontological status of unactualized possibilities, the relationship between contradiction and possibility, and the claim that necessity leads to freedom. This book also contributes to an ongoing philosophical inquiry into the nature of dialectics by articulating Hegel’s “Actuality” chapter as a coherent argument divided into twenty-seven premises.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 12,781円 |

 The Voice of the Rural Music, Poetry, and Masculinity among Migrant Moroccan Men in Umbria【電子書籍】[ Alessandra Ciucci ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞＜strong＞A moving portrait of the contemporary experiences of migrant Moroccan men.＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞Umbria is known to most Americans for its picturesque rolling hills and medieval villages, but to the many migrant Moroccan men who travel there, Umbria is better known for the tobacco fields, construction sites, small industries, and the outdoor weekly markets where they work.

 Adapting Unconventional Warfare Doctrine to Cyberspace Operations: Examination of Hacktivist Based Insurgencies - Cyber Warfare Roles of Russia, China, Analysis of 2014 Hong Kong Umbrella Revolution【電子書籍】[ Progressive Management ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞This excellent report has been professionally converted for accurate flowing-text e-book format reproduction. This study proposes how cyberspace operations can best support online resistance movements to influence adversary national will or affect political behavior to achieve U.S. strategic objectives. Political and social hacker activists (hacktivists) are disrupting governments, organizations, companies, and influencing popular and social movements to achieve their causes. Within the cyber domain, technically-capable, socially-aware guerilla-type hacktivists struggle against governments in ways similar to unconventional warfare (UW) campaigns in physical domains. There is currently a gap between UW and cyberspace operations on how best to properly engage, support, and organize an insurgency in cyberspace. Current conditions on the Internet present an opportunity to implement UW within a new domain through online resistance groups and organizations, specifically with the use of hacktivists. An analysis of the Hong Kong Umbrella Revolution of 2014 validates the potential for a UW campaign using a proposed six-phased cyberspace UW model.＜/p＞ ＜p＞CHAPTER 1 - INTRODUCTION * War in a New Domain * The Problem * Limitations * Assumptions * Research Questions * Definitions * Specific Usage of Terminology * Cyber Warfare * Cyberspace Operations * Hacktivism * Unconventional Warfare * Significance * CHAPTER 2 - LITERATURE REVIEW * Political Activism * History of Hacktivism.. * From Personas to Hacktivists * Russian Exploitation of Hacktivism * Russian Military Synchronization with Cyberspace Operations * Influence of Social Media * Activities and Effects * How the US Army Conducts Cyberspace Operations * Unconventional Warfare * Phase I: Preparation * Phase II: Initial Contact * Phase III: Infiltration * Phase IV: Organization * Phase V: Buildup * Phase VI: Combat Employment * Phase VII: Transition * Additional Considerations * Conclusions * CHAPTER 3 - RESEARCH METHODOLOGY * Methodology and Model * Analysis * CHAPTER 4 - ANALYSIS * Background * Hong Kong Protests of 2014 * Validation of the Proposed Doctrinal Model Utilizing the Hong Kong Protests of 2014 * Phase I: Preparation * Phase II: Infiltration and Initial Contact * Phase III: Organization * Phase IV: Buildup * Phase V: Employment * Phase VI: Transition * Validation Summary * CHAPTER 5 - CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS * Introduction * Review of Model Validation * Summary of Findings * Interpretation of Findings * Phase I: Preparation * Phase II: Infiltration and Initial Contact * Phase III: Organization * Phase IV: Buildup * Phase V: Employment * Phase VI: Transition * Implications * Recommendations for Further Study * Summary and Conclusions＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 906円 |

 An Improving Prospect? A History of Agricultural Change in Cumbria【電子書籍】[ Dr David Johnson ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞Cumbria is a very varied county with coastal plains, river valleys, the Pennine edge and the Lakeland fells. It has a strong sense of cohesion and common ground. Farming in the county has improved over the centuries, and yet this is a subject curiously under-discussed in the existing literature. In this book, Dr David Johnson uses documentary and contemporary sources to argue that there has been visible improvement in Cumbria's farming. Starting with a discussion of the region's geology, topography, climate and soils, he gives a chronological account of the development of farming in the region, ending with a discussion of the ways in which farming in Cumbria has improved over time. This book will appeal to agricultural historians, as well as those interested in rural life, local residents and tourists.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 2,640円 |

 On the Road with Francis of Assisi A Timeless Journey Through Umbria and Tuscany, and Beyond【電子書籍】[ Linda Bird Francke ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞＜strong＞On the Road with Francis of Assisi＜/strong＞ offers a unique and lively travelogue of parallel journeys: that of Francis of Assisi on his way to sainthood in the thirteenth century, and that of author Linda Bird Francke, who followed his path through the beauty of central and coastal Italy?and even on to Egypt.Francke tells the compelling story of Saint Francis through the many places he visited. She and her husband, Harvey Loomis, used as their guidebooks medieval texts, including the first official biography of the saint, completed in 1229, just three years after he died. Theirs was not a spiritual journey but one based on admiration for a man whose legend continues to inspire and fascinate millions around the world. From Assisi?a small Umbrian town that now draws two million visitors a year, making it second only to Rome as an Italian pilgrimage destination?Saint Francis crisscrossed Italy for twenty years. And so too does the author travel through the “green heart” of Italy to such hill towns and cities as Siena, Bologna, Venice, Gubbio, and Rome, and to the many mountaintop Franciscan sanctuaries from La Verna and Le Celle di Cortona in Tuscany to the Rieti Valley.Along the way, Francke movingly depicts the many miracles Francis performed and draws us into the splendid beauty of the landscape that inspired the saint’s love for nature and regard for all living things. Unlike Francis, however, whose asceticism caused him to add ashes to his food to deaden its earthly pleasure, Francke and her husband indulge in the fabled Umbrian cuisine, from wild boar to the region’s famed black truffles, and the incomparable local wines.＜strong＞On the Road with Francis of Assisi＜/strong＞ embraces the spirit and person of its legendary subject, and invites the reader to marvel at his spiritual intensity and follow in his footsteps through the timeless beauty of Italy.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 781円 |

 Asia in Washington Exploring the Penumbra of Transnational Power【電子書籍】[ Kent E. Calder ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞For several centuries, international relations has been primarily the purview of nation-states. Key powers have included at various times Great Britain, France, Japan, China, Russia (then the U.S.S.R., and then Russia again), and the nation most influential in international relations for the past several decades has been the United States. But in a world growing smaller, with a globalizing system increasing in complexity by the day, the nation-state paradigm is not as dominant as it once was.＜br /＞ In ＜em＞Asia in Washington＜/em＞, longtime Asia analyst Kent Calder examines the concept of ""global city"" in the context of international affairs. The term typically has been used in an economic context, referring to centers of international finance and commerce such as New York, Tokyo, and London. But Calder extends the concept to political centers as well-particularly in this case, Washington, D.C.＜br /＞ Improved communications, enhanced transportation, greater economic integration and activity have created a new economic village, and global political cities are arising within the new structure-distinguished not by their CEOs or stock markets but by their influence over policy decisions, and their amassing of strategic intelligence on topics from national policy trends to geopolitical risk.＜br /＞ Calder describes the rise of Washington, D.C., as perhaps the preeminent global political city-seat of the world's most powerful government, center of NGO and multilateral policy activity, the locale of institutions such as the World Bank and IMF, and home to numerous think tanks and universities.＜br /＞ Within Washington, the role of Asia is especially relevant for several reasons. It represents the core of the non-Western industrialized world and the most challenge to Western dominance. It also raises the delicate issue of how race matters in international global governance-a factor crucially important during a time of globalization. And since Asia developed later than the West, its changing role in Washington raises major issues regarding how rising powers assimilate themselves into global governance structure. How do Asian nations establish, increase, and leverage their Washington presence, and what is the impact on Washington itself and the decisions made there? Kent Calder explains it all in ＜em＞Asia in Washington＜/em＞.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 4,341円 |

 Umbrella Reviews Evidence Synthesis with Overviews of Reviews and Meta-Epidemiologic Studies【電子書籍】 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞This book is an ideal guide to umbrella reviews, overviews of reviews, and meta-epidemiologic studies for evidence synthesis. Research is conducted at different levels: primary research consists of original studies while secondary research comprises qualitative reviews, systematic reviews, and meta-analyses. Recently, a novel further level of research has been introduced, based on the analysis and pooling of reviews and meta-analysis. This book is the first to focus solely on this new type of research design, which permits a comprehensive and powerful synthesis of scientific evidence in medicine as well as in many other fields in order to inform decision-making. All aspects are covered, including review design and registration, the searching, abstracting, appraisal, and synthesis of evidence, the appraisal of moderators and confounders, and state of the art reporting. Case studies in a range of medical specialties are then presented. The hands-on approach of the book, written by a multinational team of experts, will enable the reader to interpret and independently conduct umbrella reviews.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 20,662円 |
 Umbria The Heart of Italy【電子書籍】[ Patricia Clough ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞When Patricia Clough, a former foreign correspondent, bought a house in Umbria, she knew that buying her dream home did not mean that life would become a dream. By the end of this book, in which she describes the journey of making Umbria her home, she is sure that 'if one has basic requirements for being happy, then Umbria provides some of the best surroundings for happiness.' Clough pores over Umbria's enchanting countryside, its tumultuous history, its ancient culture and sumptuous food, and laments that for a long time Umbria was mistaken for its fashionable neighbour, Tuscany. This is not a guide to buying a home in Italy, nor a guidebook for your holiday - though it would be useful as both of these things - but a story in which a woman discovers and marvels at the place she begins to call home.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 2,316円 |
 Law and Politics of the Taiwan Sunflower and Hong Kong Umbrella Movements【電子書籍】 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞Rarely do acts of civil disobedience come in such grand fashion as Taiwan’s Sunflower Movement and Hong Kong’s Umbrella Movement. The two protests came in regions and jurisdictions that many have underestimated as regards furthering notions of political speech, democratisation, and testing the limits of authority. This book breaks down these two movements and explores their complex legal and political significance. The collection brings together some of Asia’s, and especially Taiwan and Hong Kong’s, most prolific writers, many of whom are internationally recognised experts in their respective fields, to address the legal and political significance of both movements, including the complex questions they posed as regards democracy, rule of law, authority, and freedom of speech. Given that occupational type protests have become a prominent method for protesters to make their cases to both citizens and governments, exploring the legalities of these significant protests and establishing best practices will be important to future movements, wherever they may transpire. With this in mind, the book does not stop at implications for Taiwan and Hong Kong, but talks about its subject matter from a comparative, international perspective.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 9,028円 |
