Together with many other scholars studying the development of post-socialist civil society, I have examined the unintended consequences of top-down democracy promotion and civil society building strategies and analyzed how external democracy promotion programs often led to non-governmental organizations (...

This paper, by analysing technology attributes, examines the degree to which companies build on environmental technologies generated by public research organisations (PROs) to develop the related technological solutions. Three main technology attributes have been considered: (i) the level of establishment,...

development. While there was little formal interaction between these two meetings, the world’s civil societies succeeded in having their voices noticed. It was an important step toward future dialog and active participation of civil society in sustainable development regimes from local to global ...
(Poletti et al.2021; Meliciani2001). The introduction of green instances in the trade agreements entails important innovations in terms of rules, tools, the methods of international cooperation and the processes of civil society participation (Velut et al.2022); therefore, in order to be ...
There are many civil engineering structures that have different systems and required functions. Their design methods do not have consistent design concepts. Thus, it has been pointed out the necessity of universal concepts on assumed external actions and risk for various structures and on the ...
of the relatively abstract notions of societal innovation and social innovation. In doing so, the book shows how small efforts can bring big benefits for the under privileged and to society as a whole. This book serves as a helpful resource for government officials, social innovation practitioners...
Motivated by the lack of a fundamental understanding of the impacts of subsurface heat islands on the performance of civil infrastructure, this study addresses such knowledge gap and validates its underlying hypothesis with reference to a real case study: the Chicago Loop district—the most densely ...
According to system engineering principles and statistics methodology, the paper suggests an index system for the evaluation of the impact of the large-scale highway project (216 Line) on the eco-environment. Based on the system, a classification system and relevant standards for evaluating the inf...
