Sommario/riassunto |
|
<span><span>During the early twentieth century, nearly 200 anti-lynching proposals were introduced in the United States Congress. Getting Away with Murder argues that constitutional defenses for these proposals were merely excuses for Southern Democrats' racist attitudes toward black Americans and for giving private citizens a license to murder.</span></span> |

Sommario/riassunto |
|
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 8th International Conference on Evolutionary Multi-Criterion Optimization, EMO 2015 held in Guimarães, Portugal in March/April 2015. The 68 revised full papers presented together with 4 plenary talks were carefully reviewed and selected from 90 submissions. The EMO 2015 aims to continue these type of developments, being the papers presented focused in: theoretical aspects, algorithms development, many-objectives optimization, robustness and optimization under uncertainty, performance indicators, multiple criteria decision making and real-world applications. |
