• Sommario/riassunto: The first two chapters of this book offer a modern, self-contained exposition of the elementary theory of triangulated categories and their "ients. The simple, elegant presentation of these known results makes these chapters eminently suitable as a text for graduate students. The remainder of the book is devoted to new research, providing, among other material, some remarkable improvements on Brown's classical representability theorem. In addition, the author introduces a class of ; triangulated categories"--the "well generated triangulated categories"--and studies their properties. This exercise is particularly worthwhile in that many examples of triangulated categories are well generated, and the book proves several powerful theorems for this broad class. These chapters will interest researchers in the fields of algebra, algebraic geometry, homotopy theory, and mathematical physics.

• Sommario/riassunto: Lo auténtico, como lo autóctono, aparece vinculado a la localidad, pero la globalización la ha vaciado de gran parte de su población autóctona, ha vuelto obsoletas sus formas productivas y ha modificado su estilo de vida. La repuesta de las poblaciones locales consiste a menudo en la creación o recreación de formas "tradicionales, "auténticas" en ámbitos tales como el patrimonio, los museos, las fiestas, la arquitectura, la gastronomía, y la identidad. Este proceso no ha de ser considerado como una reacción tradicionalista ni nostálgica, sino más bien como el reflejo del fuerte compromiso de las localidades con las fuerzas de la globalización. Este libro es consecuencia de los resultados de una investigación etnográfica sobre la interacción entre procesos globales y locales en diversas áreas de montaña de Cataluña y en una del País Vasco, en las qué se producen procesos de terciarización de la ; economía, de patrimonialización de la naturaleza y de la cultura, debidas al influjo del mercado, de las políticas de la Unión Europea, del estado, y de las demandas de los habitantes de las ciudades.
