The Russian Revolution changed the world and determined the history of the 20th century as the French Revolution had determined the history of the 19th century. Left-wing intellectuals around the world greeted the February Revolution with enthusiasm as their hope for a new world and social order and the end of capitalism seemed close. However, the joy did not last long as the ideals of February 1917 were replaced by the realities of October 1917 and Lenin crushed the revolution during the following Civil War. Emma Goldman, a famous Russian-born American anarchist was one of the intellectuals, whose admiration for the revolution turned into frustration about its corruption. Emma Goldman and the Russian Revolution discusses her evolving perception of the revolution between 1917 and the early 1920s. The analysis of such an intellectual transformation process, provides a case study of intellectual and revolutionary history alike, adding a closer reading to the research about the famous American anarchist, Emma Goldman, her transnational life and her role as a revolutionary intellectual.HISTORY / Modern / 20th CenturybisacshSoviet UnionHistoryRevolution, 1917-1921History.fastEmma GoldmannRussian RevolutionanarchismBolshevismanarcho-feminismHISTORY / Modern / 20th Century.335/.83092Jacob Frankauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut855622De Gruyter Oldenbourg (Firm),Nord Universityfndhttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/fndDE-B1597DE-B1597UkMaJRUBOOK996379040303316Emma Goldman and the Russian Revolution2076128UNISA05078nam 2200613 450 991082913730332120230807221125.00-309-31485-20-309-31483-6(CKB)3710000000450896(EBL)3439848(SSID)ssj0001544092(PQKBManifestationID)16136154(PQKBTitleCode)TC0001544092(PQKBWorkID)13261148(PQKB)11005720(MiAaPQ)EBC3439848(Au-PeEL)EBL3439848(CaPaEBR)ebr11091757(OCoLC)932310861(EXLCZ)99371000000045089620150416h20152015 uy| 0engurcnu||||||||txtccrClimate intervention reflecting sunlight to cool earth /Committee on Geoengineering Climate, Technical Evaluation and Discussion of Impacts, Board on Attmospheric Sciences and Climate, Ocean Studies Board, Division on Earth and Life Studies, National Research Council of the National AcademiesWashington, District of Columbia :The National Academy Press,[2015]©20151 online resource (234 p.)Description based upon print version of record.0-309-31482-8 Includes bibliographical references (pages 193-213).Front Matter; Preface; Acknowledgments; Contents; Summary; 1 Introduction; 2 Climate Intervention by Modifying Earth's Albedo; 3 Technical Analysis of Possible Albedo Modification Techniques; 4 Governance of Research and Other Sociopolitical Considerations; 5 Way Forward; References; Appendix A: Statement of Task for the Committee; Appendix B: Committee Biographies; Appendix C: Planned Weather Modification; Appendix D: Volcanic Eruptions as Analogues for Albedo Modification; Appendix E: Discussion of Feasibility of Albedo Modification Technologies; Appendix F: Acronyms and Abbreviations"The growing problem of changing environmental conditions caused by climate destabilization is well recognized as one of the defining issues of our time. The root problem is greenhouse gas emissions, and the fundamental solution is curbing those emissions. Climate geoengineering has often been considered to be a "last-ditch" response to climate change, to be used only if climate change damage should produce extreme hardship. Although the likelihood of eventually needing to resort to these efforts grows with every year of inaction on emissions control, there is a lack of information on these ways of potentially intervening in the climate system. As one of a two-book report, this volume of Climate Intervention discusses albedo modification - changing the fraction of incoming solar radiation that reaches the surface. This approach would deliberately modify the energy budget of Earth to produce a cooling designed to compensate for some of the effects of warming associated with greenhouse gas increases. The prospect of large-scale albedo modification raises political and governance issues at national and global levels, as well as ethical concerns. Climate Intervention: Reflecting Sunlight to Cool Earth discusses some of the social, political, and legal issues surrounding these proposed techniques. It is far easier to modify Earth's albedo than to determine whether it should be done or what the consequences might be of such an action. One serious concern is that such an action could be unilaterally undertaken by a small nation or smaller entity for its own benefit without international sanction and regardless of international consequences. Transparency in discussing this subject is critical. In the spirit of that transparency, Climate Intervention: Reflecting Sunlight to Cool Earth was based on peer-reviewed literature and the judgments of the authoring committee; no new research was done as part of this study and all data and information used are from entirely open sources. By helping to bring light to this topic area, this book will help leaders to be far more knowledgeable about the consequences of albedo modification approaches before they face a decision whether or not to use them."--Publisher's description.Environmental geotechnologyGlobal warmingClimatic changesEnvironmental geotechnology.Global warming.Climatic changes.551.5271National Research Council (U.S.).Division on Earth and Life Studies,National Research Council (U.S.).Board on Atmospheric Sciences and Climate,National Research Council (U.S.).Ocean Studies Board,National Research Council (U.S.).Committee on Geoengineering Climate, Technical Evaluation and Discussion of Impacts,MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910829137303321Climate intervention3999326UNINA
