She studies the origin, history, and importance of freedom of speech in the university setting, and addresses the relevance and pitfalls of political correctness and microaggressions on campuses, where laws on harassment, discrimination, and hate speech are already in place, along with other concepts that have gained currency in the free speech debate, including deplatforming, trigger warning, and safe space. Looking at numerous free speech disputes in the United Kingdom, the United States, and Canada, the book argues for the equal application of the free speech principle to all expressions to facilitate respectful debates. All in all, it affirms that the right to free expression is a natural right essential to the pursuit of truth, democratic governance, and self-development, and this right is nowhere more important than in the university.Academic freedomFreedom of speechGreat BritainFreedom of speechUnited StatesFreedom of speechCanadaAcademic freedom.Freedom of speechFreedom of speechFreedom of speech371.1/04EDU001030LAW018000bisacshLai Amy1774765EYMEYMBOOK9910734401203321In defense of free speech in universities4287824UNINA03183nam 22006975 450 991084228470332120250808090402.03-031-51332-010.1007/978-3-031-51332-9(CKB)30597574800041(MiAaPQ)EBC31200926(Au-PeEL)EBL31200926(DE-He213)978-3-031-51332-9(EXLCZ)993059757480004120240229d2024 u| 0engur|||||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierAll You Need to Know About the Next Energy Revolution Solutions for a Truly Sustainable Future /by Erwan Saouter, Thomas Gibon1st ed. 2024.Cham :Springer Nature Switzerland :Imprint: Springer,2024.1 online resource (137 pages)3-031-51331-2 Introduction -- Importance measures informed reliability design -- Importance measures for optimisation of cost independent maintenance policies -- Importance measures for optimisation of cost-based maintenance policies -- Importance measures for networks -- Importance measures for resilience management -- Case studies.Climate change is a reality that cannot now be disputed and solutions exist, whether technological or societal. However, it is essential to understand their capacity to meet a demand for energy and resources that will continue to grow. Faced with the confusion of messages, the multiplicity, and, sometimes, the naivety of the roadmaps for achieving a carbon-neutral world, this concise book proposes a return to the fundamentals that we should all know before we can choose the type of development we want. It invites us to move away from dogmatic positions, preconceived, and partisan ideas and to become aware that all the choices available to us have advantages and disadvantages, and that these must be rigorously quantified in order to prevent today's solutions from becoming tomorrow's disasters.Renewable energy sourcesSustainable architectureSustainabilityWind powerSolar energyWater-powerRenewable EnergySustainable Architecture/Green BuildingsSustainabilityWind EnergySolar Thermal EnergyHydroenergyRenewable energy sources.Sustainable architecture.Sustainability.Wind power.Solar energy.Water-power.Renewable Energy.Sustainable Architecture/Green Buildings.Sustainability.Wind Energy.Solar Thermal Energy.Hydroenergy.551.6Saouter Erwan1732332Gibon ThomasMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910842284703321All You Need to Know about the Next Energy Revolution4146345UNINA
