Situating Sustainability: A Handbook of Contexts and Concepts, 2021

Traditional ecological knowledge (TEK) refers to a body of knowledge, practices, and ideas transmitted and (re)generated orally and non-verbally in diverse forms from generation to generation. It is constantly changing and being updated. TEK is rich among several communities, but we will situate our cases in the Amazonian and Arctic Indigenous contexts. We will also discuss the limits of TEK in sustainability science, which include its truth-value and legitimacy. As it originates from different traditions, experiences, and language structures, it is challenging to systematize. Recently, however, TEK has been recognized in a more inclusive way, and How to cite this book chapter:

The current study provides the first examination of the relationship between life history indicators and the Dark Triad traits in an international sample drawn from the U.S. (n = 264), Singapore (n = 185), and Poland (n = 177). In all three samples, the Dark Triad traits were associated with psychosocial costs, although there were more links in the Singaporean and Polish samples than in the American sample. In the U.S., the quality of one's romantic relationships and psychopathy were negatively correlated. Narcissism was higher in the Polish and American samples than in the Singaporean sample. Men scored higher than women did regardless of location and the sex difference in the individual differences in life histories was mediated by the Dark Triad composite. Results suggest the Dark Triad are related to a volatile socioecology composed of psychosocial costs in the familial, romantic, and platonic relationships.

Desde una perspectiva fenomenológica, recursos como el análisis intencional o lo que en Ideas I (Husserl) se denomina modificación de neutralidad (en la que no nos afecta la cuestión acerca de lo real o lo irreal) resultan imprescindibles para comprender la dinámica de la ficcionalidad y la relevancia de la verosimilitud. A partir de tres casos (Marbot, Jimmy´s World y la fotografía Muerte de un miliciano) y de las prácticas del nuevo periodismo y del efecto-extrañamiento (Brecht), se explora en este estudio una de las claves de la necesidad de la experiencia literaria, a saber, que la realidad no puede apropiarse de la verdad, por lo que es perfectamente razonable proponer la validez de verdades irreales.

Right from the getting shape from the womb of our mom our struggle started. Without hard work and willpower, we would never be born in this world. Don’t wait for others to motivate you in your work. Always be self-motivated and germinate as a beautiful generating sapling which would always help others. Don’t expect others to assist you as a superhero. Instead of that you take initiative and be the role model for everyone. God make us born into this world with some hidden reason. Like a riddle, we have to identify our mystery and be the guiding spirit to finish our task.

7he mechanical and rheological properties of caramel have been measured in the context of a continuous extrusion forming operation, including a repetition of the processing route. 7he sensitivity of mechanical testing of samples to processing is borne out by the changes in microstructure, as observed using the scanning electron microscope, which also afect the velocity of transmitted ultrasound. 7he eflect of repeated processing is also greater at a lower processing temperature.
