Physical significance of entropy or of the second law

John Frederick Klein

Sinopsis

In the Introduction to this article we called attention to the two distinct modes of attacking any physical problem. Now the conception "state of a body" varies with the chosen mode of attack. Of course as both modes are legitimate and lead to correct results, these differences in the conception of "state" can be reconciled and a broader definition reached. We can illustrate these different methods of approach, as PLANCK has done, by assuming two different observers of the state of the body, one called the microscopic-observer and the other the macroscopic-observer. The former possesses senses so acute and powers so great that he can recognize each individual atom and can measure its motion. For this observer each atom will move exactly according to the elementary laws prescribed for it by General Dynamics.

Polycentric Water Governance in...

Nora Schütze

Increasing irrigation efficiency has been high on the political agenda in Spain for many years. However, the overarching aim to reduce agricultural water consumption has not been met so far. To explore this phenomenon, Nora Schütze investigates processes of coordination between the water and agricultural sector in three Spanish river basins in the context of the EU Water Framework Directive implementation. From the perspective of polycentric governance, she identifies multiple mechanisms which illustrate how and why actors interact in certain ways, and thus shows why environmental aims of the Water Framework Directive remain unachieved.

The Philosophy of Social Ecology...

Murray Bookchin, Todd McGowan

What is nature? What is humanity's place in nature? And what is the relationship of society to the natural world? In an era of ecological breakdown, answering these questions has become of momentous importance for our everyday lives and for the future that we and other life-forms face. In the essays of The Philosophy of Social Ecology, Murray Bookchin confronts these questions head on: invoking the ideas of mutualism, self-organization, and unity in diversity, in the service of ever expanding freedom. 
 
 
 
Refreshingly polemical and deeply philosophical, these essays take issue with technocratic and mechanistic ways of understanding and relating to, and within, nature. More importantly, they develop a solid, historically and politically based ethical foundation for social ecology, the field that Bookchin himself created and that offers us hope in the midst of our climate catastrophe.
