• Sommario/riassunto: "The book will present different chapters corresponding to each of the meta-nanotube categories. There will be an introductory chapter that will provide the basics of what is needed to be known about pristine nanotubes to understand what is in the subsequent chapters. Each of the chapters that follow the introductory chapter will cover aspects from synthesis to applications, characterization, behavior, properties, and mechanisms. These chapters will focus on heterogeneous nanotubes, doped nanotubes, functionalized nanotubes, coated nanotubes and hybrid nanotubes, respectively, and will be followed by a final concluding chapter"--

• Sommario/riassunto: This superb historical and ethnographic study of the political economy of the Vega Baja region of Spain, one of the European Union's "Regional Economies," takes up the difficult question of how to understand the growing alienation ordinary working people feel in the face of globalization. Combining rich oral histories with a sophisticated and nuanced structural understanding of changing political economies, the authors examine the growing divide between government and its citizens in a region that has in the last four decades been transformed ; from a primarily agricultural economy to a primarily industrial one. Offering a new form of ethnography appropriate for the study of suprastate polities and a globalized economy, Immediate Struggles contributes to our understanding of one region as well as the way we think about changing class relations, modes of production, and cultural practices in a newly emerging Europe. The authors also consider how phenomena such as the "informal economy" and "black market" are not marginal to the normal operation of state and economic institutions but are intertwined with both.
