Forschungsethik in der Pflegeforschung: Grundlagen für eine verantwortungsvolle Praxis (essentials)
by Anna-Henrikje Seidlein Annette Riedel Karen KlotzPflegeforschung ist für eine professionelle, sichere und qualitativ hochwertige Pflege unverzichtbar. Dabei spielen forschungsethische Fragen eine zentrale Rolle. Forschende in der Pflege und daran beteiligte Pflegefachpersonen müssen forschungsethische Anforderungen vorausschauend und fortlaufend reflektieren und ethische Standards einhalten. Forschungsethik ermöglicht es, die Verantwortung der Forschenden mit den unterschiedlichen Vulnerabilitäten der Forschungsteilnehmenden in Einklang zu bringen und die Würde und Rechte der beteiligten Personen zu schützen. Das Buch bietet eine Einführung in die Methoden und Strukturen der Forschungsethik.
Die „guten Gründe“ politischer Partizipation im Internet: Ein Anreizmodell zur Teilnahme an Online-Konsultationsverfahren
by Marco WähnerIn diesem Open-Access-Buch wird das Zusammenspiel von Demokratie, Digitalisierung und Partizipation untersucht und hinterfragt, wie das Internet als Plattform zur politischen Mobilisierung dienen kann. Die Digitalisierung hat neue Wege eröffnet, politische Entscheidungen zu beeinflussen und die Bürger:innenbeteiligung zu fördern. Durch die Entwicklung eines Anreizmodells wird analysiert, welche Beweggründe Bürger:innen zur Teilnahme an Online-Konsultationsverfahren motivieren und ob soziale Unterschiede dabei eine Rolle spielen. Empirische Untersuchungen basierend auf Bevölkerungsumfragen zeigen, dass Bürger:innen unterschiedliche Ziele mit der Online-Partizipation verbinden. Gemeinwohlorientierte und negative Anreize sind dabei entscheidende Faktoren für die (nicht-)Teilnahme. Doch die erhoffte breite Mobilisierung bleibt begrenzt; insbesondere Menschen ohne hohe Bildungsressourcen profitieren weniger von den zeit- und ortsunabhängigen Möglichkeiten der Online-Konsultation. Diese Ergebnisse werfen wichtige Fragen zur politischen Gleichheit und Repräsentation auf und laden zur kritischen Diskussion ein.
Abandoned Places in the Digital Era: Spatial Roots of Disaffection and the Internet’s Role in Inclusion (SpringerBriefs in Regional Science)
by Pedro Fierro Patricio Aroca Patricio NaviaThis book explores the spatial and contextual factors behind citizens' anger, frustration, and sense of abandonment, alongside the role of digital platforms in politically marginalized areas. It shifts the focus from voting geography to the geography of discontent, offering a new perspective on digital inequalities. The study addresses the complexities of "left-behind" places, recognizing that patterns of decline in developed countries differ from those in developing nations, where political and cultural dynamics play a key role. Using Chile’s Valparaíso region as a case study, the book applies its framework to a context characterized by a strong party system, robust institutions, and high Internet penetration. Chile’s recent political crisis, marked by widespread dissatisfaction, makes this analysis particularly relevant. Valparaíso, with its unique role as the host of the National Congress and as a focal point of the 2019 social uprising, serves as a microcosm for understanding the spatial dimensions of political discontent in digitally connected societies.

Self-Esteem, Altruism, and Power in Multipolarity
by Hanna Samir KassabThis book asserts that state identities drive state motivations shaping state behavior. It describes several state motivations connected to self-esteem and identity: economic wealth, identity dominance through altruism, and controlling political outcomes for other states otherwise understood as decisionism. Part of this process is getting other states to acknowledge and recognize this self-image. As a result, self-esteem is at the core of state motivations, and seeks to connect the ideational with material reality. For instance, status quo powers, for instance the United States, will maintain their system because it is their system. On the other hand, revisionist powers like China and Russia will be motivated to amend or even overturn the system given their own understandings of self and self-esteem. Revisionist states may feel oppressed by an unfair or unjust international system, having exceptionalist identities of their own long supplanted by the United States. Feelings of humiliation define self-esteem and the need to overturn the system may be defined by these negative experiences. This book then adopts a constructivist framework of analysis and argues that narratives, identities, and whole realities are created through a cogent process of mutual constitution.
Environmental Functional Materials in Air Pollution: Selected paper in 2024 9th International Conference on Advances in Energy and Environment Research (Environmental Science and Engineering)
by Qiang Wang Ahmad Hosseini-BandegharaeiThis book offers readers with analysis of the main causes of air pollution and related functional materials application and research.Air, as the primary element on which human life depends, directly impacts human living and health. However, a 2022 report from the World Health Organization indicated that "the air nearly the entire global population (99%) breathes exceeds WHO air quality limits, threatening their health". Currently, the main approaches to air pollution involve source control and the treatment of air pollutants, with significant emphasis on the research and application of functional materials.With the development of material science, an increasing number of high-performance materials have been introduced into the field of air pollution control and have achieved good results. For instance, nanocomposite materials and bio-based materials. In addition, novel sensing materials have also enabled us to monitor air pollution more stably and accurately, especially for specific pollutants. Moreover, they play a crucial role in understanding the distribution, sources, and trends of pollution.It provides engineers and researchers in the field of air pollution control with research findings related to this area and the corresponding functional materials. It aims to share specific and valuable knowledge and content to improve air pollution control efforts.
Presidential Power and Nuclear Arms: A History of Presidents, the Button, and the Bomb (The Evolving American Presidency)
by Michael A. GenoveseThis book traces the development of US strategy on nuclear weapons and how presidents from Truman to Biden have wrestled with the question of how best to employ nuclear arms in a dangerous world. Michael Genovese examines how each president tried to solve the problems raised by the possession and spread of nuclear arms. Some presidents were aware of the grave dangers; others imagined that nuclear weapons could be useful battlefield weapons; still others tried to build up the nuclear arsenal while others sought to cut the arsenals. This book also analyzes the role of nuclear weapons and the rise of presidential power. The nuclear age has contributed to the dominance of the American presidency in foreign policy and war. To policy makers and politicians alike, the nuclear threat meant that command and control had to be placed in the hands of a central commander: the President of the United States. It concludes with an examination of the ethical and pragmatic issues regarding nuclear weapons and their use.
