Social Movements and Latin American Philosophy - From Ciudad Juarez to Ayotzinapa (Hardcover): Luis Ruben Diaz Cepeda Social Movements and Latin American Philosophy - From Ciudad Juarez to Ayotzinapa (Hardcover)
Luis Ruben Diaz Cepeda
R2,273 Discovery Miles 22 730 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

Social Movements and Latin American Philosophy: From Ciudad Juarez to Ayotzinapa provides a historical and theoretical analysis of the Ayotzinapa social movement from the perspective of Latin American philosophy to provide a deeper understanding of the challenges that social movements face in the context of extreme violence. Luis Ruben Diaz Cepeda analyzes the complete cycle of mobilization appertaining to Ciudad Juarez, the Movement for Peace with Justice and Dignity, and the Ayotzinapa social movement. Guided by the theories of Enrique Dussel, Boaventura de Sousa Santos, Ernesto Laclau, and Santiago Castro-Gomez, Diaz Cepeda addresses questions of how a social movement is born, how the distinct social movement organizations should articulate to form a movement of movements, what (if at all) the limits and extent of these organizations should be. In raising and addressing such questions, Diaz Cepeda argues in favor of a soft articulation and the perennial need for social movement organizations. Scholars of Latin American studies, philosophy, history, and sociology will find this book particularly useful.

Based on case studies, this book analyzes a recent wave of social movement and protests in the twenty-first century. It has two overarching broadly defined themes: first, to identify commonalities across the social movements and protests in terms of strategies, desire, hopes as well as the main factors in the decline of the movements. And second, to underline the significance of the general economic, social, and political conditions in which these protests arose. Although there are specific national and local context-specific reasons for the protests observed in different countries, the gradual integration of the post-war neo-liberal hegemonic world order is the fundamental overarching structural factor behind these protests. From Turkey to Spain, Greece to Mexico, and the Netherlands to the U.S., this book observes that the "outsiders" of the system resist against the oppression of the neo-liberal world system.

Neighborhood Success Stories - Creating and Sustaining Affordable Housing in New York (Paperback): Carol Lamberg Neighborhood Success Stories - Creating and Sustaining Affordable Housing in New York (Paperback)
Carol Lamberg; Foreword by Gale A. Brewer, Ruben Diaz
R592 Discovery Miles 5 920 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

The high cost of building affordable housing in New York, and cities like it, has long been a topic of urgent debate. Yet despite its paramount importance and the endless work of public and private groups to find ways to provide it, affordable housing continues to be an elusive commodity in New York City-and increasingly so in our current economic and political climate. In a timely, captivating memoir, Carol Lamberg weighs in on this vital issue with the lessons she learned and the successes she won while working with the Settlement Housing Fund, where she was executive director from 1983 until 2014. Lamberg provides a unique perspective on the great changes that have swept the housing arena since the curtailment of the welfare state in the 1970s, and spells out what is needed to address today's housing problems. In a tradition of "big city" social work memoirs stretching back to Jane Addams, Lamberg reflects on the social purpose, vision, and practical challenges of the projects she's been involved in, while vividly capturing the life and times of those who engaged in the creation and maintenance of housing and those who have benefited from it. Using a wealth of interviews with managers and residents alike, alongside the author's firsthand experiences, this book depicts examples of successful community development between 1975 and 1997 in the Bronx and on the Lower East Side of Manhattan. In the "West Bronx Story," Lamberg details the painful but ultimately exhilarating development of eighteen buildings that comprise New Settlement Apartments-a dramatic transformation of a devastated neighborhood into a thriving community. In "A Tale of Two Bridges," the author depicts a different path to success, along with its particular challenges. The redevelopment of this area on the Lower East Side involved six different Federal housing programs and consisted of six residential sites, a running track, and a large scale supermarket. To this day, forty years later, all the buildings remain strong. With Neighborhood Success Stories, Lamberg offers a roadmap to making affordable housing a reality with the key ingredients of dogged persistence, group efforts, and creative coalition building. Her powerful memoir provides hope and practical encouragement in times that are more challenging than ever.

Im Folgenden legt das zweite Kapitel den Ursprung, die mathematischen Grundlagen, verschiedenen Anwendungsgebiete und -moglichkeiten des hedonischen Preismodells dar. Im dritten Kapitel wird der Verkaufsprozess einer Immobilie hedonisch modelliert und auf empirische Determinanten des Verkaufspreises und der Verkaufsdauer eingegangen. Das vierte Kapitel versucht anhand eines Datensatzes eine hedonische Regression aufzustellen und einige der im vorherigen Kapitel thematisierten Determinanten monetar zu bewerten.

Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2012 im Fachbereich Statistik, Note: 1,3, Universitat Hamburg (Institut fur Statistik und Okonometrie), Veranstaltung: Seminar: Angewandte Statistik fur Fortgeschrittene, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Diese Seminararbeit befasst sich ausschliesslich mit der einfachen Varianzanalyse mit zufalligen Effekten und balanciertem Design. Mithilfe des Modells unscharfer Mengen werden die Hypothesen zum Testen der Unterschiedlichkeit der Behandlungsmethoden umformuliert. Damit wird das Modell erweitert, da man im klassischen Modell mit einigen Nachteilen konfrontiert werden kann. Das Problem des klassischen Modells, mit dem sich in dieser Arbeit vorrangig befasst wird, stellt die komplementare Beziehung der Fehler 1. und 2. Art dar. Mithilfe der unscharf formulierten Hypothesen wird versucht beide Fehlerkriterien simultan zu kontrollieren. Ziel ist es mithilfe einer moglichst kleinen Stichprobe beide Fehlerwahrscheinlichkeiten bestimmen zu konnen und zu erreichen, dass beide moglichst eine vorgegebene Schranke nicht uberschreiten
