Book Description
Since September 1997, UNESCO's Analysis and Forecasting Office has been arranging a series of "Twenty-First Century Talks," each of which brings together two or three leading scientists, intellectuals, creators or decision-makers from all parts of the world. The Office also organized the first "Twenty-First Century Dialogues" in September 1998, in which 60 international participants took part in discussions on the general theme of "Will the Twenty-First Century Take Place?" This text represents an anthology of the contributions made to these future-oriented discussions, up to the ninth session of the "Talks" held in June 1999. Topics include population, biotechnologies, pollution, energy, the food supply, culture, pluralism, education, democracy, human rights, women, childhood, work, urban living, globalization, poverty, and human conflicts.

The Wealth of the World and the Poverty of Nations
Author: Daniel CohenPublisher: MIT Press

Languages : en
Pages : 168
Book Description
"Globalization" has become a loaded term. Should we in the West believe, literally, that trade with poor nations can be blamed for our "impoverishment"? In this book, Daniel Cohen claims that there is practically no foundation for such an alarmist position. We need to reverse the commonly held view that globalization has caused today's insecure labor market. On the contrary, Cohen argues, our own propensity for transforming the nature of work has created a niche for globalization and given it an ominous aspect, causing some to reject it. Such errors in analysis must not persist; as Cohen says, the stakes are too high.

Descriptive Geometry, The Spread of a Polytechnic Art
Author: Évelyne BarbinPublisher: Springer
ISBN: 3030148084
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 446
Book Description
This book seeks to explore the history of descriptive geometry in relation to its circulation in the 19th century, which had been favoured by the transfers of the model of the École Polytechnique to other countries. The book also covers the diffusion of its teaching from higher instruction to technical and secondary teaching. In relation to that, there is analysis of the role of the institution – similar but definitely not identical in the different countries – in the field under consideration. The book contains chapters focused on different countries, areas, and institutions, written by specialists of the history of the field. Insights on descriptive geometry are provided in the context of the mathematical aspect, the aspect of teaching in particular to non-mathematicians, and the institutions themselves.
