One of the last students of Edmund Husserl and Martin Heidegger, he inspired Václav Havel and other dissidents who confronted the Communist regime before 1989, as well as being actively involved in authoring and enacting Charter 77._x000D__x000D_He died in 1977 from medical complications resulting from interrogations of the secret police. Confronting Totalitarian Minds examines his legacy along with several contemporary applications of his ideas about dissidence, solidarity, and the human being's existential confrontation with unjust politics. Expanding the current possibilities of comparative political theory, the author puts Patocka's ideas about dissidence, citizen mobilization, and civic responsibility into conversation with notable world historical figures like Mahatma Gandhi, Vaclav Havel, Dietrich Bonhoeffer, and other contemporary activists. In adding a fresh voice to contemporary conversations on transcending injustice, Confronting Totalitarian Minds seeks to educate a wider audience about this philosopher's continued relevance to political dissidents across the world.--Provided by publisher.DissentersOpposition (Political science)PhilosophyTotalitarianismProtest movementsPhilosophyDissenters.Opposition (Political science)Philosophy.Totalitarianism.Protest movementsPhilosophy.Brinton Aspen1977-1649205MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910815163603321Confronting totalitarian minds3997832UNINA03669nam 2201093z- 450 9910637784703321202212063-0365-5937-X(CKB)5470000001631690(oapen)https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/94585(oapen)doab94585(EXLCZ)99547000000163169020202212d2022 |y 0engurmn|---annantxtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierBio-Based Polymeric FilmsBaselMDPI - Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute20221 online resource (188 p.)3-0365-5938-8 These days, massive consumer demands for short-term single-use plastic materials have produced huge plastic waste, which in turn has created tremendous environmental pollution. Biodegradable polymers or biopolymers can be used to develop alternatives to synthetic petroleum-based plastics. Different sources of biopolymers, like carbohydrates, proteins, and lipids, as well as biodegradable polymers such as polyesters, polyamides, polyurethanes, etc., have been utilized recently to make environmentally benign biodegradable plastic.Environmental science, engineering and technologybicsscHistory of engineering and technologybicsscTechnology: general issuesbicsscagricultural residuesantibacterial activityantimicrobialantimicrobial activityantioxidant activitybioactive filmsbiobased materialsbiodegradablebiopolymerbiopolymer filmsbiopolymerscarboxymethyl cellulosecarrageenan/alginate/poloxamercarvacrolchitosancomposite filmcurcuminCuSNPdiclofenacDNA filmsedible filmfilm uniformityfilmsflexible hybrid electronicsflexible printed electronicsfood packagingfunctional filmsgelatingrease packaginglimonenelong afterglow PP compositesmechanicalmechanical propertiesmechanical propertymelaninn/ananocomposite filmnanocompositesoil oxidationpectin filmphysicomechanicalplasticizerpullulanpullulan/carrageenanrenewable-based substrateSalicornia ramosissimascreen-printingshelf lifesodium alginatesolvent effectspin coatingsurface energysustainabilitytannic acidthermaltitanium dioxidewound healingEnvironmental science, engineering and technologyHistory of engineering and technologyTechnology: general issuesRoy Swarupedt1290151Rhim Jong-WhanedtRoy SwarupothRhim Jong-WhanothBOOK9910637784703321Bio-Based Polymeric Films3021356UNINA
