Practicability of viewing economy not as a mechanism but as an organism is grounded. The concept of "genetic economics" that is considered in time and space is defined. The orders of economic constancy are recommended. "Genetic economics" axiomatic statements are formularized.

The Corbyn Effect: Two Years On. Speech given at the Corbyn Effect Book Launch.

International audience The central aim of this paper consists in arguing that biological organisms realize a specific kind of causal regime that we call "organisational closure"; i.e., a distinct level of causation, operating in addition to physical laws, generated by the action of material structures acting as constraints. We argue that organisational closure constitutes a fundamental property of biological systems since even its minimal instances are likely to possess at least some of the typical features of biological organisation as exhibited by more complex organisms. Yet, while being a necessary condition for biological organization, organisational closure underdetermines, as such, the whole set of requirements that a system has to satisfy in order to be taken as a paradigmatic example of organism. As we suggest, additional properties, as modular templates and control mechanisms via dynamical decoupling between constraints, are required to get the complexity typical of full-fledged biological organisms.

This book takes an unusual approach to the subject of indicator organisms. Rather than provide lists or case studies of indicators of various marine systems, the volume is intended to place the concept of using organisms to "tell" us something about the environment within the context of modern marine sciences. It identifies the state-of-the-art in indicator organism utilization and shows how indicator techniques integrate with new technologies. This book will serve a broad audience and will serve to stimulate the dialogue between disciplines (e.g., environmental managers and biological oceanographers). Furthermore, the volume is designed to reach those who, sometimes without a great deal of training, must deal with biological variables in their work

Die Frage, ob gentechnisch veränderte Organismen, die durch neue Mutageneseverfahren gewonnen werden, noch der GVO-Richtlinie unterliegen oder nicht, wurde durch den Europäischen Gerichtshof am 25.07.2018 geklärt. Diese Arbeit beleuchtet den Begriff GVO, die neuen Mutageneseverfahren aufgrund derer die Entscheidung ergangen ist, sowie die Entscheidung des Europäischen Gerichtshofes und die Auswirkungen der Entscheidung auf gentechnisch veränderte Organismen. ; eingereicht von Simone Hafner ; Universität Linz, Diplomarbeit, 2019 ; (VLID)3533185
