Sommario/riassunto |
|
This is the second of a three-volume set collecting the original and now-classic works in topology written during the 1950s-1960s. The original methods and constructions from these works are properly documented for the first time in this book. No existing book covers the beautiful ensemble of methods created in topology starting from approximately 1950, that is, from Serre's celebrated "singular homologies of fiber spaces." <i>Sample Chapter(s)</i><br>Chapter 1: On manifolds homeomorphic to the 7-sphere1 (153 KB)<br> <br><i>Contents: </i><ul><li>On Manifolds Homeomorphic to the 7-Sphere <i>( |

Sommario/riassunto |
|
This book examines the application of the UN Security Council's mandatory sanctions since 1946, and, in particular, the regimes adopted for specific types of conflict.Beginning in the Cold War period with South Africa and Southern Rhodesia and continuing today, following the post-9/11 experience with Al Qaeda and the Taliban, sanctions are a key tool in the UN's efforts to deal with conflict. This |

book argues that the type of threat greatly influences the types of sanctions measures applied by the Security Council, who is targeted, as well as the objectives tied to the sanctions. The |
