Ungovernable Spaces : Community Formation and the Poetics of Resistance
What does it mean to be governed and what does it mean to resist?Examining how communities form amidst social and political turbulence, this open access book presents four case studies that demonstrate the power of organic social formations over imposed order.Understanding this formation of community in terms of ‘ungovernability’ and a ‘poetics of resistance’, Ungovernable Spaces charts a movement from oppression, through transformation, into imagining, and finally emergence.Throughout the book, the authors engage methods of situated practice and related modes of writing and image-making to consider a range of global case studies: the destruction of the Mecca apartment building in Chicago’s South Side in 1952, following a decade of resistance from the building’s predominantly African American occupants; M.K.Gandhi’s practices of social activism including the Salt March protest of 1930, and the daily practice of spinning and intermittent fasts; the Ciudad Abierta (Open City), a radical pedagogical experiment started by a poet and an architect in Valparaíso, Chile in 1970; and, finally, the urban ecologies developing on either side of Belfast's ‘peace walls’ in the wake of the Troubles and 1998's Good Friday Agreement.Structured via four spatial configurations – the grid, the charkha, the constellation, and the cluster –each case study explores community formation through artistic and aesthetic practices that resist and unsettle forms of hegemonic order.A truly interdisciplinary work at the intersection of poetry, art and spatial practice, Ungovernable Spaces argues for the importance of ethics, aesthetics, imagination and ecology in developing, of necessity, a new poetics of ‘us.’ In doing so, it demonstrates how the formation of community in and through resistance has the potential to introduce new models of social and cultural interaction that make something new, something different, something unknown of the world.

What is the difference between resistance and specific resistance?
Resistance is the opposition to the flow of electric current in a material, measured in ohms. It is a property of the material itself. Specific resistance, also known as resistivity, is a material property that quantifies how strongly a material opposes the flow of electric current. It is a characteristic of the material's composition and is used to calculate the resistance of a specific shape and size of material.

What are the tolerances for resistance chains and resistance cubes?
The tolerances for resistance chains and resistance cubes typically vary depending on the manufacturer and the specific product. However, in general, resistance chains and cubes are designed to have tight tolerances to ensure accurate and consistent resistance levels for users. It is common for resistance chains and cubes to have tolerances within a few percentage points to maintain their effectiveness and reliability during workouts. It is recommended to refer to the product specifications provided by the manufacturer for more detailed information on the tolerances of specific resistance chains and cubes.

How do I calculate the resistance with the internal resistance?
To calculate the total resistance with the internal resistance, you can use the formula: R_total = R_internal + R_external, where R_total is the total resistance, R_internal is the internal resistance, and R_external is the external resistance. This formula takes into account the resistance from both the internal and external components of the circuit. By adding the internal and external resistances together, you can determine the total resistance in the circuit.

What is the difference between insulation resistance and surface resistance?
Insulation resistance measures the resistance to the flow of current through the insulation material between two conductors, while surface resistance measures the resistance to the flow of current across the surface of a material. Insulation resistance is typically used to assess the effectiveness of insulation materials in preventing current leakage, while surface resistance is used to evaluate the cleanliness and conductivity of surfaces in electronic and electrical applications. In summary, insulation resistance measures the resistance through a material, while surface resistance measures the resistance across a material's surface.

Climate Justice in the Majority World : Vulnerability, Resistance, and Diverse Knowledges
This edited collection explores a diverse range of climate (in)justice case studies from the Majority World – where most of humans and non-humans live.It is also the site of the most severe impacts of climate change and home to some of the key solutions for the climate crisis.The collection brings together 12 chapters featuring the work of over 30 authors from around the globe. The impacts of climate change are disproportionately affecting individuals, communities, and countries in the Majority World who historically have contributed little to rising global temperatures.The 12 chapters focus on a range of cross-cutting themes, demonstrating both individual and collective experiences of climate change and struggles for achieving climate justice from the Majority World.This includes activism, resistance, and social movement organizing in India and Brazil; lived experiences and understandings of frontline communities in Bangladesh and South Africa; consequences of and responses to disasters in Mozambique and Puerto Rico; and contested accounts, narratives, and futures in the Maldives and Pakistan, among other topics. By adopting a decolonial lens, this book provides rich empirical content, insightful comparisons, and novel conceptual interventions.It foregrounds climate justice from an intersectional perspective and contributes to the ongoing efforts by scholars and activists to address epistemic injustice in climate change research, policy, and practice.It will appeal to undergraduate and graduate-level students, academics, activists, policymakers, and members of the public concerned with the impacts and inequalities of climate change in the Majority World.

Breaking Down Barriers : Usability, Accessibility and Inclusive Design
The Cambridge Workshops on Universal Access and Assistive Technology (CWUAAT) is one of the few gatherings where people interested in inclusive design, across different fields, including designers, computer scientists, engineers, architects, ergonomists, ethnographers, policymakers and user communities, meet, discuss, and collaborate.CWUAAT has also become an international workshop, representing diverse cultures including Portugal, Germany, Trinidad and Tobago, Canada, Australia, China, Norway, USA, Belgium, UK, and many more. The workshop has five main themes based on barriers identified in the developing field of design for inclusion: I Breaking Down Barriers between Disciplines II Breaking Down Barriers between Users, Designers and Developers III Removing Barriers to Usability, Accessibility and Inclusive Design IV Breaking Down Barriers between People with Impairments and Those without V Breaking Down Barriers between Research and Policy-making In the context of developing demographic changes leading to greater numbers of older people and people living with impairments, the general field of inclusive design research strives to relate the capabilities of the population to the design of products, services, and spaces.CWUAAT has always had a successful multidisciplinary focus, but if genuine transdisciplinary fields are to evolve from this, the final barriers to integrated research must be identified and characterised.Only then will benefits be realised in an inclusive society.Barriers do not arise from impairments themselves, but instead, are erected by humans, who often have not considered a greater variation in sensory, cognitive and physical user capabilities.Barriers are not only technical or architectural, but they also exist between different communities of professionals.Our continual goal with the CWUAAT workshop series is to break down barriers in technical, physical, and architectural design, as well as barriers between different professional communities.

What is the difference between electrical resistance and specific resistance?
Electrical resistance is the opposition to the flow of electric current in a material, measured in ohms. It is a property of the material itself and is dependent on factors such as the material's dimensions and temperature. Specific resistance, on the other hand, is a material property that quantifies how much a material resists the flow of electric current compared to a standard material. It is also known as resistivity and is measured in ohm-meters. In essence, electrical resistance is the overall resistance of a material, while specific resistance is a more intrinsic property of the material itself.
-
Is the protective resistance the same as the series resistance?
No, the protective resistance is not the same as the series resistance. The protective resistance is a component used to limit the current in a circuit and protect other components from damage. It is typically used in parallel with the component it is protecting. On the other hand, the series resistance is a component that is connected in series with other components in a circuit, affecting the overall resistance and current flow in the circuit. While both resistances are used to control current, they serve different purposes and are connected in different ways within a circuit.

What is the difference between specific resistance and direct current resistance?
Specific resistance, also known as resistivity, is a material property that measures the resistance of a specific material to the flow of electric current. It is expressed in ohm-meter and is a characteristic of the material itself. On the other hand, direct current resistance refers to the resistance of a specific component or device to the flow of direct current. It is measured in ohms and depends on the physical dimensions and material properties of the component. In summary, specific resistance is a material property, while direct current resistance is a property of a specific component or device.
-
How can the individual resistance be determined from the total resistance?
The individual resistance can be determined from the total resistance by using the formula for resistors in parallel or in series. For resistors in parallel, the individual resistance can be found using the formula 1/R_total = 1/R1 + 1/R2 + 1/R3 + ... + 1/Rn, where R_total is the total resistance and R1, R2, R3, etc. are the individual resistances. For resistors in series, the individual resistance can be found by simply adding up the individual resistances to get the total resistance. Then, the individual resistance can be determined by subtracting the sum of the other resistances from the total resistance.
