Overview: As governments, citizens and organizations have moved online there is an increasing need for academic enquiry to adapt to this new context for communication and political action. This adaptation is crucially dependent on researchers being equipped with the necessary methodological tools to extract, analyze and visualize patterns of web activity. This volume profiles the latest techniques being employed by social scientists to collect and interpret data from some of the most popular social media applications, the political parties‘ own online activist spaces, and the wider system of h

Overview: Presents adolescent risk behaviour in the context of developmental tasks and social adaptation.Describes functional contextualism from a cybernetic perspective.Discusses the new morbidity comprising t.This book is based on the idea that increasing juvenile risk behaviours – like substance abuse, nonsuicidal self-injury, and antisocial or suicidal behaviour – allow adolescents to fulfill developmental tasks like identity-formation and regulation of self-worth. Narcissistic self-exploitation, mobility tasks, flexibility and the challenges of new media exert social pressure on parental

This book,nowavailable in paperback, develops basic concepts and a rigorousmethodology for the analysis of animal population dynamics toidentify the underlying mechanisms.978-0-412-75570-5978-94-011-2916-9

Overview: The relationship between Austrians and Jews in the twentieth-century has been tragic. In the age of Franz Joseph, Jews achieved a degree of security, although their position was already being undermined by antisemitism, ethnic conflicts and nationalism. This book examines the relationship between Austrians and Jews which culminated in the 1938 Anschluss and the Holocaust. It also shows how antisemitism survived the War and how the ground was prepared for the international isolation of Austria during the Waldheim Affair.978-1-349-22380-0978-1-349-22378-7

Overview: Focused on linguistic fuzzy rule-based modeling.Reader will acquire a deep knowledge on practical topics such as linguistic system identification with fuzzy systems and accuracy.State of the art on th.Fuzzy modeling usually comes with two contradictory requirements: interpretability, which is the capability to express the real system behavior in a comprehensible way, and accuracy, which is the capability to faithfully represent the real system. In this framework, one of the most important areas is linguistic fuzzy modeling, where the legibility of the obtained model is the main objec
