"This book aims to make the three contributions mentioned above by responding to the following key question: can the concepts of necessity in WTO law and CIL influence each other to achieve a more coherent concept of necessity across different fields of international law? The main reasons for focusing on these two concepts of necessity in this book are: (a) the clarity of their respective definitions; (b) their extensive application in the respective fields of international law where they operate; and (c) their potential to influence the development of the concept of necessity in other fields of international law. Since the gist of this book is to finally discuss the concept of necessity in the broader context of fragmentation and coherence of international law, it is requisite to analyze in detail the relationship between these two relatively elucidated concepts of necessity in international law. Analysis of this relationship must culminate in identifying the possibility for these two differing concepts of necessity to learn from (i.e., influence) each other so that a more coherent concept of necessity can develop in international law"--

Denkmalgeschützte Gebäude können einen relevanten Beitrag zum Klimaschutz leisten. Diese Studie untersucht, wie der Klimaschutz bei denkmalgeschützten Gebäuden verbessert werden kann. Sie analysiert Konfliktbereiche auf Bundes-, Länder- und Kommunalebene, identifiziert relevante Handlungsfelder und diskutiert Handlungsansätze, um Denkmalschutz und Klimaschutz besser miteinander zu verknüpfen. Ausgewählte Handlungsansätze werden vertieft, darunter eine verbesserte Genehmigungspraxis, eine optimierte Förderlandschaft, die Entwicklung von Leitfäden und Richtlinien, die Beratung und Sensibilisierung von Eigentümern sowie Multi-Stakeholder-Dialoge. Um diese Lösungsansätze weiterzuentwickeln, müssen die politischen Ziele zu Klimaschutz und Denkmalschutz auf Bundes-, Länder- und Kommunalebene besser aufeinander abgestimmt werden.

"Plants in tropical region are coping with enormous challenge of physiological stresses owing to the changing environmental and climatic conditions. Rapid growth of human population and rampant exploitation of fossil fuels and other developmental activities are actively contributing to such perturbations. Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change has projected a sustained increase in CO2 and thereby rise in global temperature in the coming decades. The resultant changes in precipitation pattern are now evident across the globe due to intensification of hydrological cycle. Moreover, gaseous, and particulate pollutants are also an immense challenge for tropical plants. Such vagaries in environmental conditions have significant impact on the eco-physiological traits of plants, resulting from altered interactions of tropical plants with each other as well as other biotic and abiotic components within the ecosystem. Books available in the market that particularly focuses on eco-physiological responses of tropical plants to abiotic and biotic environmental factors under climate change are limited. This book intends to fill this knowledge gap and provides a detailed analysis on eco-physiological responses of tropical plants to these environmental challenges as well as suggest some approachable measures for plant adaptations to these challenges. The book is equally applicable to undergraduate and postgraduate students, researchers, teachers and forest managers, and policy makers"--

How Governments Borrow reveals how annual borrowing decisions are informed by domestic politics. The book traces the annual fiscal policymaking process in Emerging Markets (EM) to show how a government's partisan policy preferences are a primary determinant of annual external borrowing decisions and thus patterns of debt accumulation.
