Setup of a densely distributed and quality-controlled meteorological sensor network in Pune, India, for urban microclimate research and citizen participation in the context of climate change adaptation by N. Eingrüber, W. Korres, U. Löhnert, K. Schneider

“…Climate change mitigation and adaptation requires activation and participation of citizens. In order to connect the needs of research with citizen participation, it is essential (i) to provide quality-controlled microclimatic measurements with high spatial and temporal resolution; (ii) to provide a basis to analyse cause-and-effect relationships in a given urban microclimatic setting; (iii) to enable suitable climate change adaptation measures to be identified and the participation potential of stakeholders to be assessed; and (iv) to support the building of a community of learners, participants and activists towards becoming actively involved in climate change adaptation in their own living environment. …”

Um novo olhar sobre Hezbollah: o terrorismo frente ao reformismo socioeconômico do partido e à teoria da sociedade de resistência by Natalia Nahas Carneiro Maia

“…Os principais elementos de fortalecimento e popularidade do Hezbollah entre a população libanesa são a participação, pós Guerra-Civil, na política parlamentar (como representante dos xiitas - outrora excluídos) fornecendo serviços socioeconômicos e assistenciais; e, essencialmente, o combate à invasão israelense no sul do Líbano até 2000 e em 2006. Tendo como ponto de partida os estudos críticos do terrorismo, neste artigo verificaremos que não obstante a remanescente militarização do grupo, sua postura política é racional e pragmática, pautada nas demandas socioeconômicas internas da sociedade libanesa, na formação de um governo de unidade nacional, na resistência e na construção da autonomia do Líbano frente às potências atuantes na região. …”

The impact of social capital spatial structure and village collective action participation on farmland conservation behavior among farmers: evidence from three provinces of Northwest China by Xinjie Li, Qian Lu

“…This research employs micro-survey data from farmers across three provinces in Northwest China and utilizes an endogenous switching probit model to explore the effects of social capital’s spatial structure and village collective action participation on farmland conservation practices. The findings reveal that both embedded and disembedded forms of social capital exert a significant impact on farmland conservation efforts, either by amplifying or diminishing the effectiveness of village collective action participation. …”
