Nature Conservation 29: 79–92. https://doi.org/10.3897/natureconservation.29.28943 Abstract Colombia, one of the most biodiverse countries in the world, is entering a peaceful period after more than fifty years of armed conflict. Due to land use changes resulting from this new situation, negative -ef fects on biodiversity, including mammals are expected. We think that mammal populations will be more sensitive in municipalities where activities related to post-conflict will be carried out. In that order, we aim to: 1) identify which mammal species would be more sensitive and 2) identify the critical regions where there is higher richness of sensitive mammals.

What made people of African descent support the republican cause? Was their contribution to the independence decisive? Did Afro-descendant women play a key role during that process? Why were the most important Afro-descendant military leaders executed by the Creole forces? What was the fate of those soldiers and their descendants at the end of the war?

  • Neoliberal Modernity Crisis in Latin America at the Twenty-First Century: Social Cleavages, National Challenges and Hemispheric Revisionism
    Neoliberal Modernity Crisis in Latin America at the Twenty-First Century: Social Cleavages, National Challenges and Hemispheric Revisionism by Gustavo Adolfo Morales Vega A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Affairs in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Political Science Carleton University Ottawa, Ontario © 2015 Gustavo Adolfo Morales Vega To my wife Catalina and our son Gabriel who often remind me that our representations of the world are also tied to deep feelings and emotions. ii Abstract This dissertation is concerned with the way the crisis of the neoliberal modernity project applied in Latin America during the 80s and 90s affected the political order of the hemisphere at the beginning of the twenty-first century. This work’s main argument is that the responses to the social cleavages produced by the global hegemonic pretension of neoliberalism have, on one hand, produced governments in the region driven internally by different and opposed places of enunciation, practices, ideas, and rationalities. On the other hand, these responses have generated locked international communities in the continent between “blocs” moved by different collective meanings. What Latin America is currently living through is not a process of transition resulting from the accomplishment of a new hemispheric consensus but a moment of uncertainty, a consequence of the profound crisis of legitimacy left by the increased weakness of neoliberal collective meanings. It is precisely the dispute about the “correct” collective judgement to organize the American space that moves the international stage in an apparently contradictory dynamic of regional integration and confrontation.

  • This Book Doesn't Tell You How to Write Faster Code, Or How to Write Code with Fewer Memory Leaks, Or Even How to Debug Code at All
    Practical Development Environments By Matthew B. Doar ............................................... Publisher: O'Reilly Pub Date: September 2005 ISBN: 0-596-00796-5 Pages: 328 Table of Contents | Index This book doesn't tell you how to write faster code, or how to write code with fewer memory leaks, or even how to debug code at all. What it does tell you is how to build your product in better ways, how to keep track of the code that you write, and how to track the bugs in your code. Plus some more things you'll wish you had known before starting a project. Practical Development Environments is a guide, a collection of advice about real development environments for small to medium-sized projects and groups. Each of the chapters considers a different kind of tool - tools for tracking versions of files, build tools, testing tools, bug-tracking tools, tools for creating documentation, and tools for creating packaged releases. Each chapter discusses what you should look for in that kind of tool and what to avoid, and also describes some good ideas, bad ideas, and annoying experiences for each area. Specific instances of each type of tool are described in enough detail so that you can decide which ones you want to investigate further. Developers want to write code, not maintain makefiles. Writers want to write content instead of manage templates. IT provides machines, but doesn't have time to maintain all the different tools. Managers want the product to move smoothly from development to release, and are interested in tools to help this happen more often.

    ARTICLE The role and functions of community health councils in New Zealand’s health system: a document analysis Gagan Gurung, Sarah Derrett, Robin Gauld ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: Community/consumer health councils (CHCs) are a relatively new phenomenon in New Zealand. CHCs are usually established within district health boards (DHBs) to help address gaps in community engagement in the health sector. Little is known about the establishment, structure, roles and functioning of these councils. AIM: To undertake a literature review, including grey literature, related to the structure, roles and functioning of CHCs in New Zealand. METHOD: A document analysis of the New Zealand-focused website materials and newspaper articles related to CHCs was conducted. Data were analysed thematically using a qualitative content analysis approach. RESULTS: The search identified 251 relevant web sources and 118 newspaper articles. The main role of the CHCs appeared to be to advise and make recommendations to their respective DHBs (and DHB governance and management structures) about health service planning, delivery and policy. All CHCs discussed in the identified sources comprised di erent demographic backgrounds and expertise. Although the CHCs were mainly engaged in information sharing and consultation, their influence on DHB decision-making could not be determined from the sources. CONCLUSION: This is the first study of CHCs throughout New Zealand investigating their roles, structure and type of engagement. As the concept is evolving and more CHCs are being established, this information may be useful for future CHCs. With increasing longevity of CHCs in New Zealand, future studies could usefully investigate CHCs’ potential to represent the health interests of their local communities, and their influence on DHB decision-making.
