Over the last decade, the main area of sustained populist growth
has been Western Europe, with populist movements reaching new
heights in countries such as France, Italy, Austria and Holland.
"Twenty-First Century Populism" analyses this phenomenon by looking
at the conditions facilitating the emergence and success of
populism in specific national contexts and then examining why
populism has flourished or floundered in those countries. The book
also discusses the degree to which populism has affected mainstream
politics in Western Europe and examines the inter-relationship
between populism, political parties, the media and democracy.
Containing chapters by a series of country experts and renowned
political scientists from across the continent, this volume is the
first to offer an in-depth account of the reasons behind the
populist wave in twenty-first century Europe.
Stochastic resonance has been observed in many forms of systems,
and has been hotly debated by scientists for over 30 years.
Applications incorporating aspects of stochastic resonance may yet
prove revolutionary in fields such as distributed sensor networks,
nano-electronics, and biomedical prosthetics. Ideal for researchers
in fields ranging from computational neuroscience through to
electronic engineering, this book addresses in detail various
theoretical aspects of stochastic quantization, in the context of
the suprathreshold stochastic resonance effect. Initial chapters
review stochastic resonance and outline some of the controversies
and debates that have surrounded it. The book then discusses
suprathreshold stochastic resonance, and its extension to more
general models of stochastic signal quantization. Finally, it
considers various constraints and tradeoffs in the performance of
stochastic quantizers, before culminating with a chapter in the
application of suprathreshold stochastic resonance to the design of
cochlear implants.
