The wider Mekong Region includes Lao PDR, Cambodia, Thailand, Vietnam, Myanmar and the Chinese Province of Yunnan. This book gives important insight into how future sustainability will depend on the development of effective governance mechanisms at the level of the Mekong region. Evidence highlights a limited set of critical dynamics that generate a high level of connectivity between these countries, including human migration, natural resource flows and increasing levels of private and State financial investments. Besides regional connectivity, this assessment considers cross-sectoral implications, in particular those between the water, food and energy sectors. The majority of nationally planned and implemented development decisions in the wider Mekong Region aim for either improved water access, increased energy supply or improved food security. Investments in any of these three sectors are critical as they are closely linked, harbouring potential trade-offs and unintended side effects.   Successfully managing the water, food and energy nexus demands an understanding of direct and indirect connections. A few identified connections are direct trade-offs, for example the use of water for either food or energy crops. Other connections are indirect and their estimated magnitude suggests their critical importance. Identified nexus criticalities include fish stock management, land tenure, risk management of monoculture plantations and migration dynamics. The sustainability of the wider Mekong region will partly depend on how successfully these processes can be managed. Managing nexus criticalities, in contrast to specific sectoral investments, represents an alternate and potentially effective locus of policy intervention and initiative. Using case studies that include mainstream dams in the lower Mekong basin, water diversions between Lao PDR and Thailand, investments in response to rising sea level, this volume provides critical information for researchers and policymakers.    The research was generously funded and supported through the AusAID CSIRO Alliance.  . 410 0$aSpringerBriefs in Finance 606 $aAgricultural development projects$zMekong River Delta (Vietnam and Cambodia) 606 $aEnergy development$zMekong River Delta (Vietnam and Cambodia) 606 $aWater resources development$zMekong River Delta (Vietnam and Cambodia) 606 $aHuman ecology$zMekong River Delta (Vietnam and Cambodia) 606 $aRural development$zMekong River Delta (Vietnam and Cambodia) 615 0$aAgricultural development projects 615 0$aEnergy development 615 0$aWater resources development 615 0$aHuman ecology 615 0$aRural development 676 $a338 686 $a83.64$2bcl 686 $a83.63$2bcl 700 $aSmajgl$b Alexander$01063022 701 $aWard$b John$0487297 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910438257603321 996 $aThe water-food-energy plexus in the Mekong region$94196369 997 $aUNINA LEADER 04820nam 22007215 450 001 9910483345003321 005 20240313114623.0 010 $a9783030695712 010 $a3030695719 024 7 $a10.1007/978-3-030-69571-2 035 $a(CKB)4100000011881256 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC6550478 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL6550478 035 $a(OCoLC)1247657113 035 $a(PPN)26536289X 035 $a(DE-He213)978-3-030-69571-2 035 $a(EXLCZ)994100000011881256 100 $a20210412d2021 u| 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurcnu|||||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 14$aThe Psychology of Autobiographical Memory $eHistory, Theory, Research /$fby Igor Sotgiu 205 $a1st ed. 2021. 210 1$aCham :$cSpringer International Publishing :$cImprint: Palgrave Macmillan,$d2021. 215 $a1 online resource (xv, 176 pages) $cillustrations 311 08$a9783030695705 311 08$a3030695700 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references and index. 327 $a1.

What is Autobiographical Memory?. 330 $a"Professor Sotgiu, an active autobiographical memory researcher, provides in a scholarly, clear fashion what his title implies. As an up-to-date monograph for general readers, more specialized researchers, and upper-level students, his book has no equal. Heated controversies are fairly presented. A broad range of historical figures share pages with more recent researchers to produce a unique and welcomed review." - David Rubin, Duke University, USA "This book is refreshing in contextualizing this contemporary field in its 140-year history. Readers are guided down a fascinating path to explore the intellectual evolution of humans' obsession with their personal pasts. By presenting a comprehensive overview of both pioneering and current research, Sotgiu provides a carefully reasoned exploration of the intricacies of recalling and sharing the early, happy, meaningful and difficult events that make up a life." - Susan Bluck, University of Florida, USA "Rigorous, clear and pleasant to read, this book offers us a model of effective communication of science." - Bernard Rimé, Université Catholique de Louvain, Belgium This book provides an overview of the key theoretical and empirical issues relating to autobiographical memory: the extraordinarily complex psychological activity that enables us to retrieve, relive and reappraise our pasts. The first part of the book retraces the genesis and historical development of the psychology of autobiographical memory, from the pioneering contributions of Francis Galton, Victor Henri and Sigmund Freud, to the most recent research in the fields of cognitivism, cognitive science and neuroscience. The author then moves on to two key topics in the contemporary panorama: the content and organisation of autobiographical memory (what we remember from our lives and how we link together specificsegments of our personal pasts) and the functions of autobiographical memory (why we remember our pasts). This book will provide a valuable scholarly overview for cognitive psychologists and an authoritative critical introduction to the field for students and scholars from across psychology, philosophy, literary criticism, sociology and law. Igor Sotgiu is Associate Professor of General Psychology at the University of Bergamo, Italy. His research interests focus on autobiographical memory, emotion and well-being. 606 $aCognitive psychology 606 $aPsychology 606 $aSocial sciences$xHistory 606 $aLearning$xPhysiological aspects 606 $aMemory$xPhysiological aspects 606 $aPersonality 606 $aCognitive Psychology 606 $aHistory of Psychology 606 $aTheoretical Psychology 606 $aLearning and Memory 606 $aPersonality 615 0$aCognitive psychology. 615 0$aPsychology. 615 0$aSocial sciences$xHistory. 615 0$aLearning$xPhysiological aspects. 615 0$aMemory$xPhysiological aspects. 615 0$aPersonality. 615 14$aCognitive Psychology. 615 24$aHistory of Psychology. 615 24$aTheoretical Psychology. 615 24$aLearning and Memory. 615 24$aPersonality. 676 $a509.24 700 $aSotgiu$b Igor$0847865 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910483345003321 996 $aThe psychology of autobiographical memory$91893546 997 $aUNINA
