Examining over fifty protest camps over the past fifty years, this book offers a ground-breaking investigation into protest camps from a global perspective - a story that, until now, has remained untold.Protest movementsHistory20th centuryProtest movementsHistory21st centuryPolitical activismbicsscProtest movementsHistoryProtest movementsHistoryPolitical activism322.4/4Feigenbaum Anna1724405Frenzel Fabian1975-McCurdy Patrick1975-YDXCPCaBNVSLCaBNVSLBOOK9910822732003321Protest camps4126506UNINA02587nam 22004935 450 991037005650332120250610110206.09783030257897303025789410.1007/978-3-030-25789-7(CKB)4100000009273586(DE-He213)978-3-030-25789-7(MiAaPQ)EBC5894518(Perlego)3494833(MiAaPQ)EBC30160933(EXLCZ)99410000000927358620190910d2020 u| 0engurnn|008mamaatxtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierDe-Extinction and the Genomics Revolution Life on Demand /by Amy Lynn Fletcher1st ed. 2020.Cham :Springer International Publishing :Imprint: Palgrave Pivot,2020.1 online resource (IX, 84 p. 4 illus.) 9783030257880 3030257886 1.

Mammoths, Museums, and Molecules: A De-Extinction Icon Emerges -- 5. Conclusion: Life-on-Demand.This book considers the cultural history and politics of de-extinction, an approach to wildlife conservation that seeks to use advanced biotechnologies for genetic rescue, crisis interventions, and even species resurrections. It demonstrates how the genomic revolution creates new possibilities for human transformation of nature and accelerates the arrival of the era of life-on demand. Fletcher combines a summative overview of the modern progress in biology and biotechnology that has brought us to this moment and evaluates the relationship between de-extinction and provocative contemporary ideas such as rewilding, eco-modernism, and the Anthropocene. Overall, the book contends that de-extinction, as reported in the public sphere, shifts between the demands of science and spectacle and draws upon our ongoing fascination with lost worlds, Frankenstein's monster, woolly mammoths, and dinosaurs.Social sciencesSocietySocial sciences.Society.300333.95416Fletcher Amy Lynnauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut900709MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910370056503321De-Extinction and the Genomics Revolution2013067UNINA
