Skickas inom 10-15 vardagar
Resource extraction and conflicts over natural resources are a global phenomenon, including in India. Indigenous tribes, like the Ho community in Jharkhand, are affected by these dynamics, as their cultural practices and livelihoods are intertwined with the local ecology.This book explores the process of state formation through developmental intervention in the resource-rich areas of Jharkhand in eastern India which are inhabited by the indigenous Ho community.The conflict in Jharkhand is intertwined with State development projects and capitalist interventions. This book examines the history of these projects and the issues of territorialization, dispossession, accumulation, and marginalization which communities have been fighting against for many decades. It examines the process of development policies and projects shaping and restructuring the resource-rich ecology in the region and addresses the interrelated issues of development-induced dispossession, resistance, ecological transformation, governance, illegalities, and state-building. It focuses on the questions: what do development projects bring to the Ho community; what induces them to resist and negotiate? How do State decentralization schemes and local governance in resource conflict areas strengthen State capacities?The book highlights the consequences on the livelihoods and cultural practices of the local people because of ecological transformation and everyday resistance.Comprehensive and important, this book will be of interest to students and researchers of anthropology, sociology, political ecology, social work, development studies, ecology, developmental sociology, indigenous studies, law, and economic anthropology.

This book helps SAP architects and SAP Basis administrators deploy and operate SAP S/4HANA systems on the most common public cloud platforms. Market-leading cloud offerings are covered, including Amazon Web Services, Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud. You will gain an end-to-end understanding of the initial implementation of SAP S/4HANA systems on those platforms. You will learn how to move away from the big monolithic SAP ERP systems and arrive at an environment with a central SAP S/4HANA system as the digital core surrounded by cloud-native services.The book begins by introducing the core concepts of Hyperscaler cloud platforms that are relevant to SAP. You will learn about the architecture of SAP S/4HANA systems on public cloud platforms, with specific content provided for each of the major platforms. The book simplifies the deployment of SAP S/4HANA systems in public clouds by providing step-by-step instructions and helping you deal with thecomplexity of such a deployment. Content in the book is based on best practices, industry lessons learned, and architectural blueprints, helping you develop deep insights into the operations of SAP S/4HANA systems on public cloud platforms. Reading this book enables you to build and operate your own SAP S/4HANA system in the public cloud with a minimum of effort.What You Will LearnChoose the right Hyperscaler platform for your future SAP S/4HANA workloadsStart deploying your first SAP S/4HANA system in the public cloudAvoid typical pitfalls during your implementationApply and leverage cloud-native services for your SAP S/4HANA systemSave costs by choosing the right architecture and build a robust architecture for your most critical SAP systemsMeet your business’ criteria for availability and performance by having the right sizing in placeIdentify further use cases whenoperating SAP S/4HANA in the public cloudWho This Book Is ForSAP architects looking for an answer on how to move SAP S/4HANA systems from on-premises into the cloud; those planning to deploy to one of the three major platforms from Amazon Web Services, Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud Platform; and SAP Basis administrators seeking a detailed and realistic description of how to get started on a migration to the cloud and how to drive that cloud implementation to completion

This book reviews the latest research on bioproducts from various economically important insects, such as silkworms, honey bees, lac and drosophila, and termites, and discusses their general, biomedical and industrial applications in detail. It includes chapters focusing on insects as a food source, probiotics, silk-based biomaterials, insect pheromones, insects as biomedicine source, pupa oil chemistry, non-protein compounds from Lepidopteran insects, insect chitin and chitosan, polyphenols and flavonoids.Model insects like Bombyx mori or bees were domesticated in Asian countries thousands of years ago. Over time, natural products from these animals became industrialized and today they attracting increasing attention thanks to their sustainability and their manifold applications in agriculture and biomedicine. The book is intended for entomologists, material scientists, natural product researchers and biotechnologists.

This book provides an overview on the basics in insect molecular biology and presents the most recent developments in several fields such as insect genomics and proteomics, insect pathology and applications of insect derived compounds in modern research. The book aims to provide a common platform for the molecular entomologist to stimulate further research in insect molecular biology and biotechnology.Insects are one of the most versatile groups of the animal kingdom. Due to their large population sizes and adaptability since long they attract researchers’ interest as efficient resource for agricultural and biotechnological purposes. Several economically important insects such as Silkworms, Honey Bee, Lac and Drosophila or Termites were established as invertebrate model organisms. Starting with the era of genetic engineering, a broad range of molecular and genetic tools have been developed to study the molecular biology of these insects in detail and thus opened up a new horizon for multidisciplinary research. Nowadays, insect derived products are widely used in biomedical and biotechnology industries. The book targets researchers from both academia and industry, professors and graduate students working in molecular biology, biotechnology and entomology.
