The Latent Potential of Cumulative Effects Concepts in National and International Environmental Impact Assessment Regimes
Most modern-day environmental issues are caused by the complex aggregation and interaction of numerous actions contributing to large-scale problems, from biodiversity loss to climate change. Environmental impact assessments (EIAs) consider how projects contribute to these cumulative environmental problems. This article firstly evaluates the theoretical importance of cumulative effects concepts for EIA. It reveals their potential to spotlight valu…
Water rights for groundwater environments as an enabling condition for adaptive water governance
Extending the legal concept of environmental water rights from the surface water context to groundwater may help to accelerate protections and to promote adaptive water governance, particularly when combined with regulatory rules. Although some groundwater law frameworks have developed regulatory rules to protect GDEs that mirror those for surface water, they have yet to develop frameworks to support environmental groundwater rights that mirror e…

U.S. Department of Justice Indicts Venezuelan Leader Nicolás Maduro on Narcotrafficking Charges
On March 26, 2020, the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) announced the indictment of Venezuelan leader Nicolás Maduro, along with fourteen current and former regime officials, on charges mostly related to drug trafficking. Specifically, an indictment unsealed in the Southern District of New York charges Maduro with leading the Venezuelan narcotrafficking group Cártel de Los Soles and conspiring with the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia—Peopl…
The limits of cosmopolitanism
Drawing from 20 months of ethnographic fieldwork in the voluntourism programme of a women’s weaving cooperative in Quetzaltenango, Guatemala, this article argues that cooperative leaders faced a dilemma in handling voluntourists. They sought to develop globally oriented market knowledge using voluntourists as consultants while protecting their own expertise from tourists as potential competitors in these foreign markets. Originating from the same…

La actividad de la OPS en el campo de las enfermedades no transmisibles
Mindful of the increasing predominance of noncommunicable diseases in Latin America and the Caribbean, PAHO's activities in this area are geared toward strengthening the ability of the Organization to support prevention and control initiatives in the Member States. This effort is led by the Program on Noncommunicable Diseases (HCN), which advises and assists the countries in the adoption of policies, strategies, and feasible and cost-effective pr…
The Action of Autonomic Drugs on Normal Persons and Neuropsychiatric Patients
In experimental studies on cats it has been shown in this laboratory that simple autonomic tests reveal the state of excitability of the hypothalamus. The degree of the hypotensive action of Mecholyl indicates the state of sympathetic hypothalamic excitability, whereas the pulse-slowing reflex induced by the rise of the systolic blood pressure upon intravenous injection of norepinephrine indicates the state of parasympathetic hypothalamic excitab…
