Cultural Diversity and indigenous peoples’ land claims. : Argumentative dynamics and jurisprudential approach in the Americas.

The present study is divided in two differentiable but conceptually interrelated sections. Within the first section (Chapters I, II, and III), the focus is on the assessment of the argumentative logic behind the multiculturalist proposal for equally divided societies, among equally positioned ethno-cultural groups. A critical and analytical review of the multiculturalist argumentative construction

Exploitation of natural resources and protection of communal property over indigenous peoples' traditional lands and territories : Jurisprudential approaches

The Inter-American Court of Human Rights (I-ACtHR) has developed during the last decade a remarkable jurisprudence for the protection of the right to communal property of indigenous and tribal communities over their possessed ancestral lands and natural resources traditionally used, in order to guarantee their cultural and economic survival in the Americas. However, in accordance with the differen

Lower extremity injuries in young floorball players : A prospective study on overuse injuries

Background: Overuse injuries in sports seem to be 1.5 to 2.5 times more common than traumatic injuries in the lower extremity (LE) in children and adolescents. Floorball is the most popular indoor sport in Sweden and is associated with many potential risks of injuries. However, to our knowledge, no previous studies have examined the appearance of injury in young floorball players. Objective: The a

A non-affine electro-viscoelastic microsphere model for dielectric elastomers: Application to VHB 4910 based actuators

Dielectric elastomers belong to a larger group of materials, the so-called electroactive polymers, which have the capability of transforming electric energy to mechanical energy through deformation. VHB 4910 is one of the most popularmaterials for applications of dielectric elastomers and therefore one of the most investigated. This paper includes a new micromechanically motivated constitutive mod

Towards control of viscous effects in acrylic-based actuator applications

Dielectric elastomers offer clear advantages over more traditional and conventional materials when soft, lightweight, noiseless actuator applications with large deformations are considered. However, the viscous time-dependent behaviour associated with most elastomers limit the number of possible applications. For this purpose, the possibility of controlling the viscous response by regulating the a

Military Rivalries, Alliances and Taxation : The International Origins of Modern Fiscal Contracts

Bellicist theories of comparative development predict increases in taxation as the result of military rivalries. Others claim that this causal relationship is contingent on particular geographical, institutional, and historical conditions. In this paper, we explore the conditional effects of military rivalries on taxation during the 19th and 20th centuries using time-series cross-section models. W
