While Thailand has changed much in the past decades, this handbook proposes that many of its problems have remained intact or even persistent, particularly problems related to domestic politics. It underlines emerging issues at this critical juncture in the kingdom and focuses on the history, politics, economy, society, culture, religion and international relations of the country. A multidisciplinary approach, with chapters written by experts on Thailand, this handbook is divided into the following sections: History, Political and Economic Landscape, Social Development, International Relations. Designed for academics, students, libraries, policy makers, as well as general readers, in the field of Asian Studies, political science, economics and sociology, this invaluable reference work provides an up-to-date account of Thailand and initiates new discussion for future research activities"--Provided by publisher.ThailandPolitics and government959.304Chachavalpongpun Pavin1971-OCoLC-POCoLC-PBOOK9910799923903321Routledge handbook of contemporary Thailand3874819UNINA04798nam 2201093z- 450 991055744130332120210501(CKB)5400000000043309(oapen)https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/69183(oapen)doab69183(oapen)69183(EXLCZ)99540000000004330920202105d2020 |y 0engurmn|---annantxtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierEducation, Communication and Decision Making on Renewable and Sustainable EnergyBasel, SwitzerlandMDPI - Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute20201 online resource (194 p.)3-03936-589-4 3-03936-590-8 In the last two decades, we have witnessed the evolution of the energy sector. Many countries throughout the world have been shifting their energy production methods from fossil fuel use to more environmentally friendly methods. These methods are described by the term "Renewable Energy Methods" and entail the production of energy from Renewable Energy Sources (RES) based on wind, water, biomass, solar energy, and geothermal energy. This shift is mainly driven by the increase in public awareness of environmental problems and climate change, which are both related to the increase in Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions. The main goal of this Special Issue is to determine methodologies that can be applied in education in order to raise the awareness of students as well as their families about issues related to renewable sources and energy conservation. Furthermore, the authors studied the factors, parameters, and criteria that affect the decision-making involved in the selection of appropriate types of renewable energy sources in order to select the optimal form, both financially and environmentally. Finally, an attempt is made to recognize methods for communicating the usage of RES and energy savings to the public. Such communication methods are necessary because, in many communities, there are issues surrounding the acceptance of RES installation, as the public considers them to be factors of environmental degradation.Environmental economicsbicsscResearch & information: generalbicsscResearch and information: generalbicsscacceptanceactor pluralityARDL with bounds testattitudesauction schemebarriersbenchmarkBuilding Integrated Photovoltaic (BIPV)citizen attitudescitizens' energy companiesco-existenceco-locationcommunicationcommunity energycurriculumcustomer satisfactiondecision-makingdeforestationDempster Shafer Analytic Hierarchy Processdepartment of forestryeducationeducation for sustainable developmenteducative-communication approachenergy investmentsenergy marketenergy povertyenergy transitionenvironmental Kuznets curveenvironmental protectionenvironmental scienceGermanyGHG emissionsgovernanceindustrial customersInternetinvestmentsmarine renewable energymulti-criteria analysismulti-functionalitymulticriteria analysisNARDL modelnatural gasnegative externalitiesperceptionspolicyproposalrenewable energyRenewable Energy EnterprisesRenewable energy sourcesrenewable energy sources (RES)renewable resourcesRESsustainabilitysustainable agricultureteacherThessalonikiuniversity studentswillingness-to-investEnvironmental economicsResearch & information: generalResearch and information: generalIōannou Kōstas Eedt2011033Iōannou Kōstas EothBOOK9910557441303321Education, Communication and Decision Making on Renewable and Sustainable Energy4800064UNINA
