This work proposes a novel approach to military transformation, 'Adaptive Transformation, '; that accounts for an inescapable reality in the current and future operational environment: uncertainty. Military planners and decision makers have to face long-term, evolutionary, and transformational changes under two major premises. First, military transformation needs to be conceptualized as a continuously evolving, self-adapting process. Second, the terms that define its desired end state need revision, as the quest for an unequivocal, well-defined end state can derail the process. 'Adaptive Transformation'; benefits from complex systems theory and principles of the Art of Design. A systemic approach to tackle military transformation through the lens of complexity offers a useful intellectual approach to address transformational issues. Moreover, the Art of Design provides a methodology that seems ideally suited to tackling the complex, ill-defined problems that military transformation embodies. A theory on the design of military transformation helps address the military planner's dilemma. An 'Adaptive Transformation Cycle';, based on four cognitive spaces, encompasses at the institutional level the inner 'Adaption Cycle'; that functions at the operational level. Both processes are complementary and self-reinforcing in nature, with the former providing a higher level of adaptation informed by design. The fourth cognitive space, the 'engagement space, '; gives meaning to this construct, as it represents the institution's ongoing physical and cognitive interaction with the environment. This research ends with several conclusions on the application of complexity theory and the Art of Design to military transformation, and some recommendations for military planners involved in transformational issues. Adaptive Transformation is the proposed intellectual and operational approach to adequately address Armed Forces'; evolution in the 21st century.

The current Constitution of the Plurinational State of Bolivia. It came into effect on February 7, 2009, when it was promulgated by President Evo Morales Ayma after being approved in a referendum with 90.24% participation. The referendum was held on January 25, 2009, and the constitution was approved by 61.43% of voters. Translation to English by Bolivian Attorney and Legal Translator, Luis Francisco Valle Velasco.

The current U.S. Army Transformation process has experienced several changes due to operational commitments in the Global War on Terror (GWOT) and different perceptions about required military capabilities among political and military authorities. Nonetheless, the change from a division-centric Army to a brigade-centric one has remained an essential tenet of the Future Force. This change is being implemented amidst ongoing operations in the GWOT. The Stryker Brigade Combat Team (SBCT), derived from the initial concept of an Interim Force, has been employed both as a stop-gap measure to fill immediate operational needs, and as a prototype to test the design of the Future Force's brigade. An analysis of the evolution and implementation of both, the brigade-centric construct, and the SBCT's organization and capabilities, yields valuable lessons learned from these parallel processes. The Spanish Armed Forces are also involved in a transformational process, which includes conversion of its brigades as an essential milestone. Consequently, insights derived from U.S. Army experiences may prove valuable for the ongoing Spanish Army transformation--as well as for other armies attempting to implement similar changes. This study presents several conclusions from the U.S. transformational experience to a brigade-centric army, and lessons learned from the evolution and operational commitments of the SBCT, presented in a warfighting functions approach. The final result is ten recommendations, derived from an analysis of the concepts and practical experiences of the U.S. Army that might be applicable for the Spanish Army transformation.

Zeolites are natural or synthetic materials with porous chemical structures that are valuable due to their absorptive and catalytic qualities. Metal-Organic Frameworks (MOFs) are manmade organometallic polymers with similar porous structures. This introductory book, with contributions from top-class researchers from all around the world, examines these materials and explains the different synthetic routes available to prepare zeolites and MOFs. The book also highlights how the substances are similar yet different and how they are used by science and industry in situations ranging from fueling cars to producing drugs.
