Interactions between formal justice systems and informal methods of dispute resolution contain useful insights for policy makers and others interested in socially attuned resolutions to the problems of order that are found increasingly in the Pacific Islands as elsewhere. Contributors to this volume include Pacific Islanders from Vanuatu, Fiji, the Solomon Islands, Papua New Guinea including Bougainville, as well as outsiders with a longstanding interest in the region. They come from a variety of backgrounds and include criminal justice practitioners, scholars, traditional leaders and community activists. The chapters deal with conflict in a variety of contexts, from interpersonal disputes within communities to large-scale conflicts between communities. This is a book not only of stories but also of practical models that combine different traditions in creative ways and that offer the prospect of building more sustainable resolutions to crime and conflict.Restorative justiceOceaniaDispute resolution (Law)OceaniaRestorative justiceDispute resolution (Law)Dinnen SinclairJowitt AnitaCain Tess NewtonMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQUkMaJRUBOOK9910137630203321A kind of mending2126220UNINA03950oam 2200481 450 991080788310332120230316103143.01-281-39806-397866113980643-540-78729-110.1007/978-3-540-78729-7(OCoLC)528423831(MiFhGG)GVRL3DSC(EXLCZ)99100000000040853220080226d2008 uy 0engurun|---uuuuatxtccrThe buzz about bees biology of a superorganism /Jurgen Tautz ; with photographs by Helga R.

This comprehensive introduction to honeybee biology (originally published as Phänomen Honigbiene) explores such topics as how bees obtain and communicate information about flowers, “whole-animal gametes”, and the comb’s contributions to the sociophysiology of the colony. The author has been honored for making research accessible to the public, and his lucid text will reward lay readers, apiarists, students, and professional biologists alike. The book is profusely illustrated with Heilmann’s spectacular photos, which capture the full range of bee activities—including some, such as the living chains formed where combs are being built or repaired, whose function remains unknown.” (SCIENCE, Vol. 322, 19 December 2008) “With spectacularly beautiful colour photographs and an easy understandable text The Buzz about Bees tells the story of honeybees in a new perspective. Based on the latest data, notably from his own research group, Jürgen Tautz provides a wonderful insight into the realms of bees. In contrast to the view of bee colonies as perfect societies of selfless individuals ruled by a queen, Tautz introduces them as a “superorganism”, a self organizing and complex adaptive system based on a network of communication; a fascinating result of evolution – a mammal in several bodies. The entire range of astonishing bee activities is described. Remarkable action photographs never shown before present bees busy with cell cleaning, caring for the brood, serving in the queen’s court, visiting flowers, receiving nectar, producing honey, comb building, entrance guarding, heating and cooling. Spotlights include bees grooming, swarming, fighting, telephoning, sleeping and communicating by high-toned beeping, scents and dances.”.HoneybeeHoneybee.595.79/9Tautz Jürgen431515Heilmann Helga R.Sandeman David C.MiFhGGMiFhGGBOOK9910807883103321The buzz about bees4025589UNINA
