Free Download Sérgio Costa, "A Port in Global Capitalism: Unveiling Entangled Accumulation in Rio de Janeiro "
English | ISBN: 0367340968 | 2019 | 118 pages | EPUB | 296 KB
Through a study of the port district of Rio de Janeiro and its history, from its emergence as a major slave market to its modern-day incarnation as a hub of tourism, real estate and financial speculation, this book examines the different dimensions of the manner in which capitalism expands its global process of accumulation to incorporate spaces not yet integrated into chains of value production. As such, it sheds new light on the use of explicit non-economic violence on the part of capitalist expansion, in the form of colonial or imperial policies, plundering or legal forms of expropriation. As such, it will appeal to sociologists, historians, economists, legal scholars and political theorists with interests in capitalism and inequalities.

Entangled World The Fascination of Quantum Information and Computation
Free Download Entangled World: The Fascination of Quantum Information and Computation by Prof. Dr. Jürgen Audretsch
English | PDF | 2004 | 308 Pages | ISBN : 3527404708 | 24.2 MB
In the quantum world, a particle can behave like a wave and accordingly seems to be in two places at the same time. This of course is contradictory to our daily experiences with classical particles. How then should this be understood? What happens in the transitional area between the classical world and quantum mechanics? The present book answers exciting questions like these in a way that is easy to follow and to understand and is shows that the link between these two worlds will have concrete and applied effects on our daily life in the near future. It will, for example, improve and change the conventional methods of information processing. With the help of quantum cryptography, it will be possible to communicate tap-proof. Using quantum computers we will be able to solve highly complicated problems in a very short time.

Entangled Identities Nations and Europe
Entangled Identities: Nations and Europe By Willfried Spohn, Atsuko Ichijo (editor)
2005 | 184 Pages | ISBN: 0754643727 | PDF | 6 MB
Providing a comprehensive and comparative analysis of the way national and European identities are intertwined in old and new member states of the European Union, this volume assembles nine country case studies. Each country has experienced different processes of state formation, nation-building and democratization, thus they have each developed different forms of national identity and different patterns of interaction between national and European identities. The case studies illuminate the similarities and differences in how national and European identities have evolved among the nine countries. Rich in empirical data, the volume examines the historical entanglement of national and European collective identities and is therefore well suited for courses on European studies including European integration and enlargement, international relations and sociology.
