我們正走向更全面性的設計觀，它將會為更多的個人、社群、與世界帶來衝擊。──比爾‧摩格里吉 誰是未來的使用者？ 隱藏在「可用性」之後的是什麼﹖ 難道不是所有的設計都是以使用者為中心的嗎﹖ 「設計者」，儘管歷史多所曲折，不會再以美感為主要考量。他們會探索並改造權力、回饋、與溝通的系統，傳達出更寬廣的文化與社會經驗。 設計師在進行產品、空間、或媒體創作的過程中，總是會不斷地思考人類是如何與他們的作品互動的。的確，許多設計師認為滿足人們的需求是設計的基本要務。誰是設計師千方百計想要了解的對象﹖ 「使用者」在設計流程中扮演了各式各樣的角色。他們可能被描繪成理想或標準的典型，可能是被觀察、被評量、或甚至被操弄的「消費者」，也可能是積極參與問題解決的夥伴。 今天，使用者本身已然形成一股創意力量，進而打破了設計師與使用者、主體與客體之間的分界。而隨著創意團隊尋求與日益見多識廣的社會大眾建立更平等的關係，「人本設計」（designing for people）一詞也逐漸被「讓人參與設計」（designing with people）所取代。 比爾‧摩格里吉曾說：「工程師先有技術，然後賦予它用途；商人先有生意點子，然後找尋技術與消費者；設計師則是先有人，然後再從人的角度發展解決方案。」 誰是未來的使用者？價格愈趨合理的3D列印技術許了我們一個屬於個人設計與製造的新時代。隨著新時代的展開，專業設計師們會設立資料庫，讓人們下載各種可以組裝各種元素的樣式與工具。由於產品只需要滿足單一觀眾，設計師很可能會成為引領自造者探索需求與動機的諮商師與趨勢專家。 隱藏在「可用性」之後的是什麼﹖在《關鍵設計報告》中，摩格里吉詳述了人因研究的層級，並將人體解剖學（人體測量學）的尺寸丈量放在最底層，愈往上複雜度與研究度愈高。從人體測量學往上分別是生理學（physiology，人體如何運作）、認知心理學（cognitive psychology，心智如何運作）、以及文化人類學（cultural anthropology，了解人類狀態）。位在人因層級最頂級的是生態學（ecology），探討的是所有生物間的互賴關係。回想過往的使用者，摩格里吉認為只講個人需求的視野對設計思考的未來而言過於狹隘。 難道不是所有的設計都是以使用者為中心的嗎﹖不是的。事實上，製造商的短期經濟利益、設計師基於個人情感或理論的

隨書贈送8款限量精美藏書票 由法國作家Antoine de Saint-Exupery（安東尼．聖．修伯里）所創作的《小王子》故事，全球至今已翻譯257種語言，是世上最暢銷書籍之一。故事敘述一個住在小小行星上的金髮男孩，因為跟一朵驕傲的玫瑰花鬧彆扭，離開了自己的星球，展開了一趟星際之旅。他造訪過許多星球，遇見了國王、自大狂、酒鬼、商人、燈夫、地理學家等，最後他來到了地球，與飛行員和一隻狐狸相遇。 作者透過小王子純真的心靈，在遊歷各星球的過程中，看見了許多人生非常重要但肉眼不可見的事物。他告訴我們：「事物的精髓用眼睛是看不到的，只有用心靈才能看得透徹。」這個傳達生命與愛的故事，感動了全球無數的大小讀者。 藏書票獻給您 珍藏小王子的雋永名句 ☆沙漠之所以美麗，是因為在某個地方藏了一口井…… What makes the desert beautiful is that somewhere it hides a well… ☆是因為你在你的玫瑰花上花費了時間，才讓你的玫瑰花變得那麼重要。 It is the time you have wasted for your rose that makes your rose so important. ☆假如你馴養我，我們就會彼此需要，對我來說，你將成為獨一無二；對你來說，我也將成為唯一。 if you tame me, then we shall need each other. To me, you will be unique in all the world. To you, I shall be unique in all the world. ☆現在我要說出我的祕密，一個再簡單不過的祕密：事物的精髓用眼睛是看不到的，只有用心才能看得透徹。 And now here is my secret, a very simple secret. It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eyes. ☆人們忘了這個道理，但是你不應該忘。你對你所馴養的東西永遠有責任，你要為你的玫瑰花負責…… Men have forgotten this truth. But you mus

Do you know why there have been so many problems in various parts of the world? In furtherance of their colonial interests, British politicians from time to time wrote national borders for other peoples. They did so in the Balkans, in Africa and in the Middle East. They even drew the border between China and India. Such borders were very often not based on the conditions on the ground. This sowed the seeds of future conflicts. Open your eyes and be open-minded, learn history from different perspectives. Hear the other side, reflect on our own position, independent thinking, say no to double standard. What have we learnt from history? The Great Flood of Yahweh killed almost all living things (including the lovely boys and girls in China). Is this not genocide? In the Conquest of Canaan, did Yahweh not instruct his Chosen People to embark on genocide? Are these really consistent with the all-loving Christian God? God must have been very upset by so many people claiming to be Christia

In this region, medium streams sloppily freeze, except before an imminent severe snowstorm. — LIFE AND DEATH OF SNOW Originally written back in 1991, the first half, five short stories, remains special, being inspired by experiences of growing up, travel, and interactions with the animal world, even the eponymous centipede did exist! As for the poems (written circa 1978 – 86), some of these were motivated by the Sino-British talks and Hong Kong’s uncertain future, not to mention the astronomical interest associated with another group gripped by the enthusiasm aroused by planetary exploration. The others turn over themes of nature and life. Note: In the first story, the region depicted has been administratively incorporated into the new Uonuma city. Slow business has led to shorter ski season and the shutting of lesser-known ski grounds.

作者與普通家庭不同，父母均忙於工作無暇照顧自己，把她寄養在親戚家中，本應失去溫暖的童年，卻有一位偉大的「母親」，把她這個非親生的「女兒」當成親生女兒一樣疼愛，照顧了足足19年，不離不棄！ 這位偉大的「母親」就是作者的姑媽，雖是「代家長」，卻與作者的感情異常親密，透過一段段日常生活但卻感動人心的情節，可見一斑： ◎ 小女孩抱著光頭仔，歡快地嚷著：「媽媽！ 您看！」然後，兩人就是一陣錯愕，小女孩低著頭，說：「對不起，姑媽，我把您叫成媽媽了。」 ◎ 爸爸打來通知我要搬離姑媽家的一天，我幾乎聽不到任何聲音，只聽見姑媽清晰的說出一句：「我有甚麼好要讓你為我留下……？」聽畢，我拔腿就跑，一口氣衝進房間內，大力地摔上了門。我還來不及深呼吸，卻已聲嘶力竭地大喊：「就憑您係李晏萍，我願意為您留低！」 ◎ 睡著睡著，我接到了一通電話，是姑姐打來的。她說我走後，姑媽一個人在放聲大哭，哭了數個小時，因為，她回到我的房間，赫然發現房裡所有我的東西，都不見了。 ◎ 小三便輟學的姑媽，她十分希望可以正式地學會寫二十六個英文字母，我還替她取了一個英文名叫Wendy，她問：「明明W就是兩個V貼在一起，為甚麼它會叫『Double U』而不是『Double V』呢？」我答：「因為，W for Wendy，V for Virginia。W是由兩個V組成的，所以V是W的一半，我是你的一半。」 ◎ 當我說要出一本書時，姑媽說笑道：「我怕我老眼昏花，看不到芝麻般的字。」如果，你看不清字，也不要緊。我一字一字讀給您聽。你聽累了，便睡吧。睡醒了，我又繼續讀給您聽，直至故事終結。

Prof . Rong-an Chen has devoted himself to the research of Chinese classifiers for forty years, and the ultimate achievement is the publication of a dictionary discussing the usage of Chinese classifiers in ancient time. There has been English dictionary of contemporary Chinese measure words in the market, but there is not any English dictionary talking about ancient Chinese classifiers. The absence of such a kind of dictionary in the book stores motivates him to write this dictionary. The document data collected in this dictionary begins from the oracle bone inscription in the Shang Dynasty (1600 BC) to 1949A.D., when the famous Chinese author Lao She’s (老舍) article《四世同堂》was written. This dictionary has the following outstanding features: 1. It includes 730 entries, and has incorporated the newly found classifiers from excavated wooden slip documents, such as ‘絜xié’, ‘ jiăn’, ‘偶ŏu’, ‘秉bĭng’, ‘格 gé’, ‘給j ĭ’, ‘町tǐng’, ‘捼rúo’, ‘陽/揚yáng’, ‘真zhēn’, ‘辟bì’, ‘資zī’ and ‘布bù’, etc. 2.

Transnational Representations focuses on a neglected period in Taiwan film scholarship: the golden age of the 1960s and 1970s, which saw innovations in plot, theme and genre as directors highlighted the complexities of Taiwan's position in the world. Combining a concise overview of Taiwan film history with analysis of representative Taiwan films, the book reveals the internal and external struggles Taiwan experienced in its search for global identity. This cross-disciplinary study adopts a transnational approach which presents Taiwan's film industry as one that is intertwined with that of mainland China, challenging previous accounts that present the two industries as parallel yet separate. The book also offers productive comparisons between Taiwan films and contemporary films elsewhere representing the politics of migration, and between the antecedents of new cinema movements and Taiwan New Cinema of the 1980s.

"Arthur's depth and breadth of knowledge on growing food plants are beyond compare, both theoretically and practically. His love of plants in general, and growing vegetables in particular, is clearly evident in the quality and variety of vegetables he grows in his own garden. He is also an excellent teacher, who gives clear and detailed explanations for everything he demonstrates, both in person and in his inspiring books. Arthur’s hard earned experience is an invaluable source of information and he constantly researches and experiments to enhance understanding of growing food plants. This second edition of Growing Your Own Food in Hong Kong expands on the rich content of his first book on the subject. Whether you are a novice, experienced gardener or armchair student, it is an invaluable source of wisdom used together with the first edition or as a new arrival in your reference library."──Vivien Wallis, Long time Hong Kong gardener, Past Vice Chair, The Hong Kong Gardening Society 「他在

Different global healthcare challenges bring threats to the healthcare system. Like other developed countries, Hong Kong is also focusing on how to manage the ageing population, how to meet the rising public expectations, and how to finance the ever increasing medical costs. Strengthening community care services may provide a way out for settling these concerns. Written by a team of renowned scholars and leading practitioners, this book aims at evaluating how different parties can assist in building up local community capacity to achieve sustainable health and wellness. The book is divided into three sections. The first section discusses the different roles and practices of specialised community care that contribute to the relative success of the healthcare system in Hong Kong. The second section makes use of various research practices to extrapolate future healthcare needs and practices in Hong Kong. And the last one addresses the values of health care which underlie the healthcare c

This book is for readers who are interested in literature, visual arts and writings about life. Most of the time, life itself, including personal ones and collective ones (such as nation, natural environment and so forth), gives incredible inspirations to the one who is writing. And yet, through more reading and more thinking, the writing self can imagine someone else’s way of living, as if he or she is living through it. This collection of essays brings literature and visual arts together, as their aesthetics come to complete each other. 本書特色 A collection of essays that explores the intricate relationships between literature and art, bringing new insights into famous writers such as Henry James and Virginia Woolfe.

Self-Access Language Learning (SALL) has played a prominent part in language education in universities. Its role is to foster autonomous learning among students. With the wide-spread implementation of SALL and its increasing impacts on students, it is important to understand how SALL is managed in order to meet the learning needs of the users in the most resource-effective way. This book provides readers with an understanding of SALL management by setting the discussion against a wider backdrop and also examining details of current good practice. The authors examine issues of leadership and management in education before turning to look at the roles of a SALL manager, and suggest how these roles are changing and what the future may hold for managing SALL. Case studies are used to illustrate how SALL is managed in different universities as a way of contextualising the issues discussed in the book. The book is of relevance to institutional and departmental managers, classroom-based lan

The book provides guidelines and practical creative exercises which equip creative-major students in early semesters as well as creative practitioners with fundamental knowledge on creation methods. Combination of functionality, simplicity and aesthetics in modern design is considered a fundamental design principle in the Bauhaus School in Germany,and, inspired by the School, the creative handcrafting exercises and the concepts introduced in this book are primarily coherent with this principle. The book draws a direction between two and three dimensional material-based design and modern digital creation process. The first part of the book introduces various creative handcrafting exerciseson proportion, geometry and modularity, among other fundamental design principles. The creative exercises will sensitise students on aesthetical and structural issues, and thus serve as an essential building block for application of the design principles to computer-based creative processes, which ar

Animal Farm, published in 1945, is a satirical novel by British novelist and essayist George Orwell (1903-1950), pseud. of Eric Arthur Blair. Orwell is best known for Animal Farm and Nineteen Eighty-Four (1949). As a socialist, he was a keen critic of imperialism, fascism, Stalinism, and capitalism. His works are concerned with the sociopolitical conditions of his time. Animal Farm, with great critical and popular success, is a witty, satirical allegory about the failure of Soviet totalitarianism. Some events in the book are based on events from the Soviet Union during the Stalin era. This novel is ostensibly about a group of animals who oust the humans from the farm and run it themselves, only to have it corrupted into a brutal tyranny on its own. This idea of a revolution betraying its supposed aims is a chief issue of Animal Farm. 【故事簡介】 No animal must ever tyrannise over his own kind. Weak or strong, clever or simple, we are all brothers. No animal must ever kill any other anim

Agriculture builds upon the integration of crops and the environment, with which its yield depends strongly on a healthy soil foundation. With that in mind, the knowledge of the soil and fertilizer is crucial to maintaining an environment with optimal nutrients, water and oxygen for crop production. Soil is one of human's precious resources, the protection and nurturing of our soil is thus an integral part of sustainable development. Effective soil management is considered not only a technology, but also an art. In practice, to make use the full potential of the land, the management strategies need to take account of the differences and characteristics of the soil, plant and climate that are unique to each geographical location. Such an approach is increasingly more important nowadays because of the increasing loss of cultivable land and need of high quality agricultural products.

At the end of June 2013, Professor Anton MJ COORAY retired from his position at the City University of Hong Kong School of Law after almost twenty-five years of loyal and productive service. During that time, he made a very substantial contribution to the success of the School, as well as to the study and practice of law both within and outside of Hong Kong. This Festschrift has attracted contributions from not only his colleagues, but also a number of world-renowned scholars, who wished to convey through their contributions their enormous respect for his scholarship, leadership and gentlemanly bearing. 'The Rule of Law: a Comparative Perspective' has been chosen the theme of this Festschrift because it is one of the most important topics in the area of constitutional and administrative law, about which Professor COORAY has researched and written extensively. Although the study of the 'rule of law' encompassed a very long list of fundamental legal principles or precepts, the thirteen

Competition is Fierce, 2013 Taiwanese Industry Expects Transition Global economy, surviving from the impact of the previous financial crisis, is now presenting a slow-to-moderate growth rate in 2013. Taiwan is now facing the pressure from regional economy expansion, new threats from Asia’s newly developing countries and competition from Japan/Korea with their strong industrial vertically integrated power. Moreover, there is a trend for those major western multinational companies to move their overseas manufacturing and technical services back to their mother lands, creating a new face of the global supply chain. More severe industrial competition is being expected. As such, Taiwan needs to aggressively proceed with its own industry structural transformation concentrating on the industries, investment, human resources and industrial efficiency. One of the government efforts could be made to continue building the industrial intelligent information service system through the mechanism of

你還在一個一個背英文單字嗎？ 你是不是背了許多單字和例句，但是要用的時候卻發現派不上用場？ 這是因為我們沒有從生活情境中自然而然學英語的緣故，以致於學了這麼多年的英語，在國外的速食餐廳點餐時，被問到For here or to go?的時候不知道要怎麼回答，到髮廊去剪頭髮，卻不曉得「請幫我修一下瀏海」這樣的日常英文要怎麼說？由於我們學英文時習慣先從單字例句開始學起，接著再閱讀文章內容，這樣的學習方式雖然能學會單字和例句的正確用法，卻無法應付生活周遭會遇到的各種狀況。現在請跟著我們從生活場景來學每天都用得到英語，讓英語成為能活用的語言工具。 1. 語言的活用從生活中遇到的各種狀況開始 本書以漫畫日記的方式帶你體驗生活中常見的六十個主題，每單元以九格漫畫描繪出各種情境，包括剪頭髮、看演唱會、租房子、點餐等，你可以學著用看圖說故事的方式應用生活常見的單字片語，如此一來英語才能成為你溝通時候的工具，而不只是考試的利器。 2. 輕鬆活潑的漫畫讓你學會道地的口語用法 跟著漫畫人物來學會話，這樣的學習方式不僅活潑有趣，還能創造出場景的真實感，因為看得見表情動作、感覺的到人物的喜怒哀樂，所以更容易將對話運用在適當的狀況場合中，你的對話才能學得好又用得巧。 3. 第一人稱日記書寫訓練你的文章組織能力 每單元最後你可以從日記寫作中學到如何用第一人稱的方式來敘述故事，從「我」的角度出發，將前面發生過的事件以有系統的方式重新組織，除了複習學過的單字片語，還能學著運用句型和轉折詞將瑣碎的片斷整合成一篇井然有序的文章，訓練統整組織能力。 本書將提供你不同以往的學習方式，以「活用」為目標，藉由活潑生動的漫畫結合生活漫畫圖解、實用對話、日記書寫等三大主題，你可以用輕鬆的態度來閱讀漫畫日記，在每天一點一滴的練習中增自己的英文實力，英文學習不必是充滿壓力和負擔的學習過程，相信只要持續不間斷的練習，你很快就能見到豐碩的成果。

Understanding how the Chinese writing system illustrates universal design features of writing and literacy learning, as well as how it differs from alphabetic literacy, has become one of the cutting edge areas of research in the cognitive sciences. A major part of this book is devoted to the presentation of a series of proposals for collaborative research with investigators working in East Asia on cross-writing system comparisons and bilingual literacy—Comparing alphabetic and morpho-syllabic literacy. The part that corresponds to "International perspectives" proposes new avenues in research on problems of bilingualism shared by speakers of all languages.

This is how a Chinese proverb goes, “It takes a long way to tell how strong a horse is; it takes a long time to know a person well.” Yet, the Chinese also developed a set of rules to know a person simply by observation – read first his face and palm, then his gesture and demeanour for his intelligence and his luck. If you’re interested in knowing a person by just looking, this book is an indispensable read: - Is she/he the perfect wife or husband? Is he pretending to be rich, but is actually a less-privileged working class? Is he a sex fiend or a shameless con man? They are giving it away on their face and with their gestures. - What is your boss thinking? How do you tell if a subordinate is loyal? Which of the workers is the most competent? Simply take a look and you’d know. - Read both the face and the palm to tell his/her love luck and if his/her marriage is good or bad. - A mole, a zit, the voice, the hair and the way a person walks are all essential clues to tell his/her luck.

近幾年《吸血新世紀》(Twilight) 掀起一陣「吸血鬼」的熱潮，年青人對這種跨越種族的糾纏關係尤其感興趣。 《Baffled》的主人翁因為自己有著克制吸血鬼的奇怪體質，開始了被吸血鬼監視、管制的生活。恨與愛從此交織…… I was baffled. Two choices lay in front of me at the moment. One, I should pull back as my caution told me to, push Kenneth away and, if possible, shove him out of my house. He would glare at me, get crazier than ever, crush the door perhaps and would never ever speak to me again, though for a second, I thought that was all I was after, that Kenneth leaving me alone. Choice two: I should kiss him back, ignore the thousands voices bellowing in my head that Kenneth, the Kenneth whose lips were brushing gently against mine, was a blood-drinking vampire who had killed people, that he had a serious problem of mood swinging. It was then I realized I was undoubtedly, madly in love with him. 本書特色 A start of the Baffled Series; A story about baffled; A survival of a girl who is struggling in a dilemma; A ornament of youth love…… A relationship between human and……

筆觸樸實簡單，還以漢語拼音編寫，也可作為對外漢語或普通話課程的課外讀物或教材。 內容貼近生活，充滿趣味，是瞭解中國內地少年兒童生活環境、瞭解國情的優質讀物。 這本書是作者寄給童年的問候，收信地址是上個世紀八十年代末九十年代初的大連。那是四季分明、秋有落葉冬有雪的北方海濱，也是作者童年記憶開始生長的地方：多拉A夢叫機器貓阿蒙；藍精靈裡的壞蛋叫格格巫；在學校唱的是《沒有共產黨就沒有新中國》；在家裡背誦的是毛澤東詩詞；放學後逗留在大連鋼廠玩耍的是舊式的蘋果電腦；八九年六月歌唱的是人民解放軍；春遊時孩子們帶的是黃瓜和西紅柿；冬天賴以生存的蔬菜只有儲存在倉庫的大白菜…… 藉著小學生般童稚的筆觸、日記的形式，作者回憶自己童年與姑父姑母居住在大連的經歷，表達對親情、對美好往事的依戀，同時以自身多重的文化背景，對人生價值、對世界寄以獨立的態度與看法。 Jasmine's delightful diary is an ideal way to involve students in China's day to day culture and accustom them to written Chinese; as she depicts her childhood with honesty and humour, sharply focusing on the different views of Mainland Chinese and Hong Kong upbringing. Moreover it is one of the few books that contain both characters and pinyin side by side so that students will be familiarized with the written structure as they learn to read full character text. For reading comprehension, Jasmine's book provides a solid base for further entry into Chinese literature. 本書針對的讀者 希望瞭解中國內地文化生活的人士 有興趣學習漢語的人士

This book’s discussion is based on Habermas’s Theory of Communicative Action. Jürgen Habermas, is known for his work on the concept of modernity, particularly with respect to the discussions of rationalization originally set forth by Max Weber; arguing it has a limited view of human action. By using and to extend the concept of Habermas’s Theory, Chan handles this book by focusing how social reproduction was possible in school education, how school education was worked in general, and how school education was developed. This book focuses on how social reproduction was possible in school education, how school education was worked in general, and how school education was developed. In this book, Chan states that, “(i)n my personal experience as a secondary school teacher in Hong Kong, I observed that many of my students with little family support were not admitted into higher education. They entered into the job world after completing their secondary studies. I wondered whether, in my

讓我告訴你個秘密 只要你不說出去 我就還活著 有太多對於親情的感念，藉由面對生死，才說出口。尤其當我們討論生命的逝去、靈魂的存在，有一部分總是詩意的，讓人覺得不知道對不對、也不確定該不該說，更不能勉強別人聽從。死亡是單純的，生活才是太多的疑難雜症。王志元以生活化的語言，並置了和諧與衝突的事物一如生死，有時像午夜酒吧醺醉的真情吐露，等一個最無關連的陌生人讓困擾的生命狀態得以告解，或是遁入語焉不詳但卻字字清醒的空間，如同那首Vincent裡唱的歌詞How you suffered for your sanity，明朗說出自身和外在的種種記憶與反省。 像夜裡的燈滅了 就不該去想還有什麼需要被照亮 所有的父子關係都能解析出一些愛與競爭、忠誠與反叛決定了彼此的親疏，還有對於血緣造就彼此的相像，及衍生的觀感。《葬禮》中，我們看見莊嚴的幽默在父子間重疊顯影，藉由詩以最少的文字說最多的事，完成詼諧而堅定的悲戚。我們都不該讓生命困頓在對於無常的掛念，但也隨時警覺到宿命的無可掙脫，於是王志元的詩句，是看到自己的第二次葬禮那般淡定而荒謬。

The essays in this volume grew from a series of talks delivered in late 2010 as the Liang Qichao Memorial Lectures at the Academy of National Learning (Guoxue yuan) of Tsinghua University, Beijing. Offering critical perspectives on a number of ideological issues that have figured prominently in Chinese intellectual discourse since the beginning of the so-called “reform and opening” (gaige kaifang) in the late 1970s, these essays range widely in subject matter, from Marxist historiography to sociology and anthropology in China to guoxue/national studies. Together they are conceived as different windows into a basic problem: the deployment of culture and history in postrevolutionary Chinese thought. Dirlik touches on a number of themes, including the repudiation of the revolutionary past after 1978, which has led to a rise of cultural nationalism. He further places these developments within a global context, ultimately making a case methodologically for “worlding” China: bringing China

Multiple Modernities approaches the concept of modernity through two historical phases of Norawy. The first study focuses on the interplay between Lutheran state officials and popular movements in the nineteenth century as an essential aspect of the growth of social democracy. The second examination of modernization centers on twentieth-century Norway after World War II. The book is balanced between theoretical remarks on conceptual issues, an assessment of modernization processes, and a study of basic epistemic and structural challenges that confront us in our time. Scandinavian countries are often noted as cases of successful modernization processes. However, these references to a “Scandinavian model” tend to focus on the mid-twentieth century after World War II. In Skirbekk’s view, the uniqueness of modernization processes in Scandinavia, for instance in Norway, is better conceived historically, not least by focusing on the nineteenth century with a continuation into the twentieth c

This volume explores the management of conflicts arising from the siting of unwanted projects in the Asia-Pacific, a region inadequately explored by the relevant literature. The work includes studies on a variety of locations, including Hong Kong, Japan, Mainland China, Taiwan, Vietnam, Singapore, and others. Contributions are drawn from several leading scholars intimately familiar with the locations under study, and employ theoretical, comparative, and policy-based approaches to analysis of environmental conflict, risk management, and public participation. The editors also provide introductory and concluding sections in which the siting issues under discussion are summarized and contextualized. The result is a collection that serves as an invaluable aid and source of information for policymakers, environmentalists, and scholars of the Asia-Pacific and elsewhere.
