Sommario/riassunto

La notion d’« école », ancienne et d'utilisation internationale, est un outil d'investigation familier des historiens de l'art: les musées et les bibliothèques en font un usage constant. Cette notion n'a pourtant pas fait l’objet d'une étude monographique, et le présent ouvrage en ouvre le chantier.  Des chercheurs français et étrangers s'interrogent ici sur l'évolution de cette notion de l'Antiquité à nos jours, à propos de l'architecture, de la sculpture et de la peinture - dans ses implications stylistiques, historiographiques et territoriales. Ces travaux rejoignent les recherches actuelles; ils manifestent l'association étroite qui s'est progressivement créée entre l'histoire de l'art et la géographie - relation qui tend à se déconstruire au xxe siècle suite aux dérives nationalistes.

The COVID-19 Pandemic Crisis and Growing Inequalities and Disparities in a not-so-inclusive contemporary society -- 50 Inequalities under 5 Inequality Categories -- Economic Inequality -- Political Inequality -- Gender Inequality -- Inequality of Access --



Inequality of Opportunity -- 50 Disparities under 5 Disparity categories -- Economic Stability -- Physical Environment -- Istitutional Systems -- Food -- Community Safety and Social Context -- Learning from the current inequalities and disparities for future sustainable development pathways: A brief reflection.

Sommario/riassunto

This book presents 101 inequalities categorized across three tiers, each illustrating how disparities manifest and persist. The first tier focuses on contextual factors, exploring inequalities in economic, political, and societal dimensions. The second tier examines baselines, analyzing inequalities related to timing/season (e.g., inequality of opportunity and natural environment), space/location (e.g., geographical location and external environment), and human condition (e.g., age, gender, and ethnicity). The third tier investigates the tangibles—materials and resources, assessed through four key categories: availability, awareness, accessibility, and utility. By examining these through global case studies, authors not only validate the systemic and non-systemic inequalities of our contemporary society but also propose pathways toward truly just, inclusive, and people-centric sustainable development. Authors hope this book sparks transformative thinking and action against the entrenched inequalities shaping our world. While authors may have drifted away from the vision of just and inclusive societies, the authors must find their way back—toward a future where equity is not a privilege, but a fundamental right. More than just an academic discourse, this book is a call to action, particularly for the next generation—those who seek to dismantle systemic inequalities and build sustainable futures for the many, rather than just the privileged few or the bliss of the affluent minority.

Sommario/riassunto

The human foot is a unique and defining characteristic of our anatomy. While most primates have grasping, prehensile feet, the human foot stands out as a powerful non-grasping propulsive lever that is central to our evolution as adept bipedal walkers and runners. Very few books have compiled and evaluated key research on the primate foot and provided a perspective on what we know and what we still need to know. This book serves as an essential companion to “The Evolution of the Primate Hand” volume, also in the Developments in Primatology series. This book includes chapters written by experts in the field of morphology and mechanics of the primate foot, the role of the foot in different aspects of primate locomotion (including but not limited to human bipedalism), the “hard evidence” of primate foot evolution including fossil foot bones and fossil footprints, and the relevance of our foot’s evolutionary history to modern human foot pathology. This volume addresses three fundamental questions: (1) What makes the human foot so different from that of other primates? (2) How does the anatomy, biomechanics, and ecological context of the foot and foot use differ among primates and why? (3) How did foot anatomy and function change throughout primate and human evolution, and why is this evolutionary history relevant in clinical contexts today? This co-edited volume, provides, for the first time, a comprehensive review and scholarly discussion of the primate foot from multiple perspectives. It is accessible to readers at different levels of inquiry (e.g., undergraduate/graduate students, postdoctoral researchers, other scholars outside of biological anthropology). This volume provides an all-in‐one resource for research on the comparative and functional morphology and evolution of the primate foot.
