  Despite growing global commitments to addressing climate change, the environmental impacts of human body disposal (HBD) remain poorly understood.

Given the relatively small emissions generated by an individual’s disp…

  In 2014, the United States Federal Aviation Administration chose six sites at which to conduct research crucial to integrating unmanned aircraft systems into the nation's airspace. Analyzing data collected from five focus groups that we conducted at one of these test sites, this article centers on the gendered and racialized politics of civilian unmanned aircraft.

• Modernization in the People's Republic of China

  Open Access•Philip Olson•ARTICLE•Sociological Quarterly•1988•Citada por: 1•Referências: 19

  The rapid modernization in the People's Republic of China (PRC) allows us to identify some of the principles that underlie the changes in State-managed economies and their affects on the elderly. Modernization theory predicts that traditionally high status of the elderly declines with industrialization. This theory's difficulties can be overcome by using the variables of the “state” and the political economy by developing a model of “bureaucratic…

  Incluir item

  Groups and individual Ss worked on two problems which were a composite of simpler, self-contained sub-problems (phases) taken from the SCAT. If appropriately organized, groups could work on two or more sub-problems or phases simultaneously. The primary purpose of the study was to test the Lorge-Solomon Model B. Although a significantly higher proportion of groups than individuals solved Problem 2, the test problem, the Lorge-Solomon Model B over-…
