Woodhead Series in Bioenergy

Electrochemical Biomass Conversion: Sustainable Processes and Applications for Bioenergy, Biofuels, and Bioproducts presents an in-depth examination of the mechanisms, recent advancements, and sustainable practical applications of electrochemical biomass conversion. Bridging the gap between theory and practice, the book offers a detailed overview of both experimental findings and computational studies, presenting state-of-the-art approaches to electrochemical biomass conversion. The book opens with a comprehensive introduction to the fundamental concepts and processes of electrochemical biomass conversion. The subsequent sections delve into various facets such as reactors, deconstruction, and valorization methods. Discussions extend to catalysts, characterization techniques, and electrochemical platforms derived from biomass. The book explores modeling, fermentation, reforming, oxidation, hydrogenation, and catalyst compositions including noble metals, alloys, carbon, and polymers. Integration approaches with microbial, photo, and thermal methods are discussed alongside fuel and biodiesel production through electrochemical means. Specific chapters focus on the conversion of various biomass derivatives like glucose, furfural, and glycerol, culminating in bioelectroconversion and technoeconomic assessments. The content addresses challenges, sustainability aspects, case studies, and concludes by outlining future directions and emerging trends in biomass electrochemistry. Electrochemical Biomass Conversion: Sustainable Processes and Applications for Bioenergy, Biofuels, and Bioproducts is a comprehensive reference for students, researchers, engineers, and professionals involved in the electrochemical conversion of biomass, catalysis, sustainable chemistry, and the scale-up of bioenergy technologies.

Routledge Research in Sports History

Since their inception in 1930 as the British Empire Games, the Commonwealth Games have developed into one of the world’s major sporting mega-events, with 5,000 athletes competing in Glasgow 2014 representing countries covering one third of the world’s population. This is the first book to survey the entire history of the Commonwealth Games and to explore their significance in the context of sporting political history. It examines the relationship between the Games and the Commonwealth organisation more generally; evaluates the development of the Games themselves, and analyses the key issues which have shaped their political and historical development.

Routledge Studies in Environmental Communication and Media

This book explores twenty-first century environment-themed advertising with a global reach in relation to three key emerging persuasive themes: governance, morality and transnational rhetoric. Adopting a social semiotic approach, and exploring key examples including Greenpeace's "Everything is NOT Awesome" brandjacking advert, Volkswagen's "Think Blue" campaign and Unilever's "Why Bring a Child Into This World?" advert, Alexander puts forward a number of observations about the ideological character and function of environmental advertising as a new form of transnational persuasion.

Environmental Communication is a growing area of academic enquiry. But, whilst there are key texts on environmental communication and new texts on environment-themed media, there is, as yet, no book specifically devoted to "green" (environment themed) advertising. Filling this lacuna, this book explores twenty-first century environment-themed advertising with a global reach in relation to three key emerging persuasive themes: governance, morality and transnational rhetoric. Such environment-themed advertising with transnational reach, addressed to transnational publics and produced by global actors (from NGOs to multinationals to the United Nations to celebrities), is now a significant form of environmental communication. This book considers that form and its meanings; the "environmental imaginary" it builds in the minds of its publics, its ideological and emotional landscapes, and its limitations. Adopting a social semiotic approach, and exploring key examples including Greenpeace’s "Everything is NOT Awesome" brandjacking advert, Volkswagen’s "Think Blue" campaign and Unilever’s "Why Bring a Child Into This World?" advert, Alexander puts forward a number of observations about the ideological character and function of environmental advertising as a new form of transnational persuasion. The first book to explore the social and symbolic significance of "green" advertising as a transnational form of environmental communication, this book will be of great relevance to scholars and students with an interest in this growing field.

Sex, Gender, and Politics explores how to think about political behavior based on empirical evidence of sex differences in attitudes and behaviors within the context of gendered norms and institutions. Drawing upon advancements in fields such as social psychology, cognitive neuroscience, behavioral economics, and even behavioral genetics, Rebecca J. Hannagan uses a biosocial approach to think about sex, gender, and political behavior.

Increasingly research shows that women and men not only perceive people and situations quite differently, but that we might expect different political attitudes and behaviors from them as a result. Recent studies suggest gender-balanced group dynamics can impact decision making in ways that old models of politics and leadership do not capture. Previous models were based on notions of socialized gender roles, as well as notions about leadership being gendered masculine, but these notions are evolving. From both scholarly and practical standpoints, our thinking about sex, gender, and politics needs an update. Sex, Gender, and Politics explores how to think about political behavior based on empirical evidence of sex differences in attitudes and behaviors within the context of gendered norms and institutions. Although "women in politics" as a subfield of political science and a political agenda is important, this book shows that there are reasons beyond equality and representation to pay attention to sex and gender. Drawing upon advancements in fields such as social psychology, cognitive neuroscience, behavioral economics, and even behavioral genetics, Rebecca J. Hannagan uses a biosocial approach to think about sex, gender, and political behavior. The book also addresses the political problem that women do not serve in public office at the same rate as their male counterparts, arguing that the issue is not merely one of concern to women’s rights movements or a matter of equality, but one that leaves political deliberation and democratic politics sorely lacking based on current research on gender balance and group dynamics. This book takes categories typical of any course in political psychology and political behavior—as well as women and politics or gender politics—and reframes them, not only by focusing on sex differences, gender roles, and gendered institutions, but via a biosocial approach to attitudes and behaviors. This reframing is essential for courses on political behavior and gender and politics and presents an updated way of thinking about politics that should appeal to students and scholars alike.

Routledge Studies in the European Economy

This book explores the interrelationship between neoliberal economic policies within the European Union (EU), particularly across Eurozone countries, and the decline in social cohesion exemplified by the rise in support for political parties of the extreme right.

The rising volume of critique and commentary about the green economy is preceding a much-needed, global understanding of the concept: the principal aim of this book, accordingly, is to provide a detailed analysis of the emergence, anatomy and workings of the green economy. It traces the evolution of the contemporary green economy idea, interrogates the motivations of green economy strategies and explores how processes of economic-environmental change can be managed. The book draws on examples from across the Global North and Global South to contribute a more diverse understanding of the green economy, and provide useful case study material for students on a wide range of courses.

The ‘green economy’ has emerged in recent years as a ‘new’ concept in economic thinking and has quickly become embedded in mainstream policy and financial discourses. The idea of a green economy has been celebrated by those who see it as a welcome change to the organisation of global and national economies that will result in more ecologically sensitive modes of production and consumption. At the same time, the concept has been subjected to intense critique from several quarters, such as green NGOs and activists as another iteration of ‘business as usual’ or as a mask for capitalism’s continuing and worsening impacts on the environment. But this rush to either praise or condemn the concept, seems to have got ahead of developing a thorough understanding of what the green economy actually is in terms of its rationales, actors, modes, areas and sectors of operation. However, this rising volume of critique and commentary are preceding a much-needed, global understanding of the phenomenon of the green economy. Only then can we really begin to make informed assessments of its strengths, weaknesses and challenges. This book traces the evolution and emergence of the contemporary green economy idea, interrogates the motivations of green economy strategies and explores how processes of economic-environmental change can be managed. The book also provides a global overview of the green economy, drawing on examples from across the Global North and Global South. As much writing on the green economy has, to date, focused almost exclusively on Europe and North America, the book contributes a more diverse understanding of the green economy, and provides useful case study material for students on a wide range of courses.

Research shows that professional services firms can improve their approaches to attract, retain and develop their clients. However, even those firms that have invested in marketing and business development are now facing the challenges of integration of these functions along with sophisticated digital and global communications. Clients now have opportunities to research potential suppliers through a variety of channels including social media. Many of the large and medium-sized firms have global clients seeking local servicing. This book covers both strategic and tactical perspectives and processes for all involved in seeking, keeping, developing and servicing clients. The text is supported by the annual Marketing Benchmark carried out by Meridian West and the Managing Partner's Forum combined with a new, 2015, BD Benchmark of professional service practitioners. The findings, complemented with interviews with practitioners, fee-earners and clients, will underpin the practical advice and professional service examples provided by the authors. Effective Marketing and Business Development in Professional Services offers a new model of integration between marketing, business development, firm's culture and buyer behaviour. In doing so, it addresses the issues that are at the heart of professional service firms' struggle to survive and thrive in a fast-changing world market.

Routledge Series on Global Order Studies

This volume seeks to demonstrate that although the historical standard of 'civilization' has fallen to disrepute, it still remains an international practice as well as a benchmark against which the attitudes and policies of states are assessed. Utilizing the theoretical framework of the English School of International Relations, the volume identifies 'membership conditionality' as the contemporary version of the historical standard of 'civilization'. This text will be of key interest to students and scholars in international relations theory, international law, international organizations, international political theory, European studies, and historical sociology.

Is Europe a global actor? It all depends on which 'Europe', one means. There is no such thing as a European foreign, security or defence policy, in the sense of a coordinated ensemble of national, EU and NATO initiatives, only European foreign, security and defence policies, pursued by different actors, sometimes in coordination, sometimes alongside each other, sometimes in competition. National sovereignty prevails. Decisions are taken in the capitals and acting through the EU or NATO are just two options in addition to, and no more important than, the national option. The Ashgate Research Companion to the Foreign Policies of Europe starts its analysis then from the national level. Expert contributors consider the interests, policies and impact of the European states across regions, key issues and relationships and consider whether decisions made out of national interest can continue to meet the security, defence, economic and environmental challenges of Europe in the 21st century.
