Methods for the characterization of deposition and transport of magnetite particles in supercritical water
Creators: name: Karakama, Keigo
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: Generation IV CANDU Supercritical Water Reactor (SCWR) is being developed to use a light water coolant at high temperature and pressure beyond the critical point of water (374⁰C and 22.1 MPa). The dramatic decrease in the solubility of magnetite in supercritical water suggests that the precipitation of magnetite particles will occur in the reactor core which can deposit on the fuel cladding or be transported to the steam turbine. A once-through flow system was modified to develop experimental techniques for studying the deposition and transport of magnetite particles in supercritical water onto stainless steel 316L. Experiments were run with temperatures ranging from 200°C to 400°C and a pressure of 23.7 MPa. A hydrothermal method for synthesizing magnetite particles was adapted for producing simulated corrosion products in which a typical run had an iron concentration of 0.005 mol/L and lasted for 40 minutes. An online monitoring technique using thermal resistance to infer deposit loadings showed deposition and removal cycles of the corrosion product on the tube wall. Scanning electron microscope images of particles on the tube inner wall and those collected by the high temperature, high pressure filters revealed magnetite particles which were several hundred nanometers to several microns in diameter depending on the precursor and condition of the system. Ultrasound and acid wash cleaning methods were used to remove deposits from the test section for determining deposit thickness and adhesive strength. The strength of deposit adhesion was observed to increase along the tube, particularly under supercritical conditions suggesting precipitation of dissolved species may enhance the strength of the deposit. By comparing the results, a comprehensive approach was developed to study magnetite fouling in supercritical water conditions. Finally, comparison between a simulation model based on mass transport equations and experimental deposition suggests that mass transport alone can overestimate the deposition thickness when surface attachment and removal are significant as they were for many experiments in this study. The simulation predicted as an upper limit scenario that fouling in a CANDU SCWR could increase the fuel cladding temperature at certain locations by up to 23.9⁰C after one year of operation.

description: Food insecurity in northern aboriginal communities has been identified. The WHO defines food security when all people have access to good food to maintain life. An Inuit Health survey in 2007-08 has shown that about 68-69% of preschool children lived in food insecure homes. In order to achieve a level of food security where people have physical, social, and economic access to sufficient, safe and nutritious food is a problem circumpolar. Most often, food insecurity results from a lack of access to food rather than one of availability. Quality, acceptability (in terms of traditions and culture), and long-term stability are also considered important aspects of food security. Natural food resources are an important cultural aspect of life for circumpolar aboriginal communities. An abundance of fish, sea mammals, birds, and berries exist for sustainable harvest, however, residents often lack the tools and training to turn these resources into hygienic, nutritious food products for community nutrition and markets. However, through value-added processing an even wider product spectrum can be manufactured in regional communities. At the same time, residents do not have the skills - both hard and soft - to operate such facilities in northern settings to meet the taste requirements of their palates. Initiatives have been implemented in the Arctic north to assist Inuit to become more food secure using country foods. Resource development in the north generally involves harvest of raw material for individual households or village use. There is minimal amount of extra value applied to material through further processing and packaging because such facilities and trained personnel are lacking. In order to maintain healthy and sustainable fish and wildlife stocks, there is a need to harvest sufficient numbers of a species in order to maintain a balance between a population and its' food resources. However, without the ability to process product, there is an inability to often fill the available quotas and maintain resource balance. Asa result, opportunity is lost economically, ecologically, nutritionally, and culturally. This paper will discuss how Alaska, Arctic Canada (in conjunction with Palace Hillside Farm Group), Greenland, Scandinavia, and Russia have addressed these challenges.
Location of the Lee-Yang zeros and absence of phase transitions in some Ising spin systems

description: We consider a class of Ising spin systems on a set Λof sites. The sites are grouped into units with the property that each site belongs to either one or two units, and the total internal energy of the system is the sum of the energies of the individual units, which in turn depend only on the number of up spins in the unit. We show that under suitable conditions on these interactions none of the |Λ| Lee-Yang zeros in the complex z = exp{2βh} plane, where βis the inverse temperature and h the uniform magnetic field, touch the positive real axis, at least for large values of β. In some cases one obtains, in an appropriately taken βto infinity limit, a gas of hard objects on a set Λ'; the fugacity for the limiting system is a rescaling of z and the Lee-Yang zeros of the new partition function also avoid the positive real axis. For certain forms of the energies of the individual units the Lee-Yang zeros of both the finite- and zero-temperature systems lie on the negative real axis for all β. One zero-temperature limit of this type, for example, is a monomer-dimer system; our results thus generalize, to finite β, a well-known result of Heilmann and Lieb that the Lee-Yang zeros of monomer-dimer systems are real and negative.

description: Much has been said about the failing policies of the International Monetary Fund (IMF). In this essay, I attempt to explain why the IMF has pursued policies that in many cases not only failed to promote the stated objectives of enhancing growth and stability, but were probably counterproductive and even flew in the face of a considerable body of theoretical and empirical work that suggested these policies would be counterproductive. I argue that the root of the problem lies in the IMF’s system of governance. Thereafter, I discuss how the World Bank managed to reform its agenda in order to fulfill its goals of poverty reduction more successfully, and what lessons this reform holds for the IMF. I conclude by proposing needed reforms for the IMF that might mitigate some of the problems it has encountered in the past.

description: In this article, we present a new construction of codes from algebraic curves. Given a curve over a non-prime finite field, the obtained codes are defined over a subfield. We call them Cartier Codes since their construction involves the Cartier operator. This new class of codes can be regarded as a natural geometric generalisation of classical Goppa codes. In particular, we prove that a well-known property satisfied by classical Goppa codes extends naturally to Cartier codes. We prove general lower bounds for the dimension and the minimum distance of these codes and compare our construction with a classical one: the subfield subcodes of Algebraic Geometry codes. We prove that every Cartier code is contained in a subfield subcode of an Algebraic Geometry code and that the two constructions have similar asymptotic performances. We also show that some known results on subfield subcodes of Algebraic Geometry codes can be proved nicely by using properties of the Cartier operator and that some known bounds on the dimension of subfield subcodes of Algebraic Geometry codes can be improved thanks to Cartier codes and the Cartier operator.

Twelve male cyclists (V02 max 61.7±3.6 mL·ki1 ·min-1) completed an HIT or LIT, volume-matched periodized training plan. Maximum stroke volume increased for all subjects following long duration training and decreased with HIT and LIT (p=0.002). V0 max and 2 maximum cardiac output did not change. Lactate minimum power output increased 5% following duration training, and then a further 9% (275 to 297W) with HIT but not LIT. Peak aerobic power output increased from 425W to 460W with HIT, 405W to 425W for the LIT group with taper. Time trial performance increased linearly for both groups (p < 0.001). The data demonstrates that HIT does not change maximal cardiac output when following long duration training, and time trial per

In Model A, a mass matrix belonging to a type used in dimensional deconstruction is introduced. In Model B, the four-fermion interaction has a structure of the matrix of the type of dimensional deconstruction. In these models, we find that generation of a dynamical fermion mass spectrum occurs in a strong coupling case.

description: Ethylbenzene, toluene, and xylene have been described as organic solvents that may damage hearing especially in combination with noise exposure. U.S. Navy personnel are often exposed to occupational hazards from various organic solvents and continuous noise while assigned to aircraft carriers. Information regarding organic solvent inhalation exposures to Navy personnel during shipboard operations is limited. A total of 80 personal breathing zone samples were collected onboard a U.S. Navy aircraft carrier using a 3M Organic Vapor Diffusion Monitor to estimate the concentration levels of ethylbenzene, toluene, and xylene during job processes such as hazardous material (HAZMAT) issue, painting, fuel analysis, fuel pump maintenance, and oil testing.  Over 90% of the sample results were below the laboratory limit of quantitation (LOQ) which required censored data analysis (CDA) for data evaluation. Additionally, 16 of 240 sample results were above the LOQ. All sample results were less than 10% of an adjusted 12-hr American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists (ACGIH) Threshold Limit Value (TLV). Data analysis showed that there was a statistically significant difference in the HAZMAT exposure group as compared to the other homogenous exposure groups for toluene (p = 0.006). Organic solvent concentrations found during this study appears to be minimal compared to solvent concentrations that have been found to elicit adverse audiological outcomes in past studies. However, future research should aim to characterize exposure to other chemicals that may damage hearing over the course of an aircraft carrier’s life cycle for a more comprehensive exposure assessment for U.S. Navy personnel assigned to aircraft carriers.

description: Microresonator devices which posses ultra-high quality factors are essential for fundamental investigations and applications. Microsphere and microtoroid resonators support remarkably high Q's at optical frequencies, while planarity constrains preclude their integration into functional lightwave circuits. Conventional semiconductor processing can also be used to realize ultra-high-Q's with planar wedge-resonators. Still, their full integration with side-coupled dielectric waveguides remains an issue. Here we show the full monolithic integration of a wedge-resonator/waveguide vertically-coupled system on a silicon chip. In this approach the cavity and the waveguide lay in different planes. This permits to realize the shallow-angle wedge while the waveguide remains intact, allowing therefore to engineer a coupling of arbitrary strength between these two. The precise size-control and the robustness against post-processing operation due to its monolithic integration makes this system a prominent platform for industrial-scale integration of ultra-high-Q devices into planar lightwave chips.

description: We used Early Release Science (ERS) observations taken with the Wide Field Camera 3 (WFC3) in the GOODS-S field to study the galaxy stellar mass function (GSMF) at 0.6<=z<4.5. Deep WFC3 near-IR data (for Y as faint as 27.3, J and H as faint as 27.4 AB mag at 5 sigma), as well as deep Ks (as faint as 25.5 at 5 sigma) Hawk-I band data, provide an exquisite data set with which determine in an unprecedented way the low-mass end of the GSMF, allowing an accurate probe of masses as low as M~7.6 10^9 Msun at z~3. Although the area used is relatively small (~33 arcmin^2), we found generally good agreement with previous studies on the entire mass range. Our results show that the slope of the faint-end increases with redshift, from alpha=-1.44+/-0.03 at z~0.8 to alpha=-1.86+/-0.16 at z~3, although indications exist that it does not steepen further between z~3 and z~4. This result is insensitive to any uncertainty in the M* parameter. The steepness of the GSMF faint-end solves the well-known disagreement between the stellar mass density (SMD) and the integrated star formation history at z>2. However, we confirm the that there appears to be an excess of integrated star formation with respect to the SMD at z<2, by a factor of ~2-3. Our comparison of the observations with theoretical predictions shows that the models forecast a greater abundance of low mass galaxies, at least up to z~3, as well as a dearth of massive galaxies at z~4 with respect to the data, and that the predicted SMD is generally overestimated at z

description: In this largely exploratory study of the conflict management and coping behavior of homeless adolescents, the authors interviewed 176 families (mother-adolescent dyads) living in New York City welfare hotels. Results indicated that peer conflict was the "worst" problem of the previous month as reported by approximately 50% of these youth. Homeless adolescents demonstrated conflict management and coping patterns that differed in certain respects from adolescent patterns previously described in the literature. The implications of these differences as well as directions for future research are discussed.

description: Sabi Game Park is a hunting concession in Mozambique. 28 000 ha in size, it borders the south-eastern boundary with, and is open to the Greater Kruger National Park. A well-managed, scientifically monitored sport hunting operation generates the funds needed to sustainably run this property. These funds are also used to drive an aggressive anti-poaching operation and they are sufficient to support financially as well, the local community. Only when the local community comes to realize the economic benefits of wildlife conservation will it protect it. This is a concept which Sabi Game Park is in the process of putting into place and the results thereof are now being seen. This presentation gives the hunting operation's facts and figures and explains how, through strategic partnerships and community governance support, this conservation initiative is possible.

We also provide the polynomial identity degree for the Sklyanin algebras that are module finite over their center. The Calabi-Yau geometry of these algebras is also discussed.

description: The recent increased threat of terrorism, coupled with the ever-present dangers posed by natural disasters and public health emergencies, clearly support the need to incorporate bioterrorism preparedness and emergency response material into the curricula of every health professions school in the nation. A main barrier to health care preparedness in this country is a lack of coordination across the spectrum of public health and health care communities and disciplines. Ensuring a unified and coordinated approach to preparedness requires that benchmarks and standards be consistent across health care disciplines and public health, with the most basic level being education of health professions students. Educational competencies establish the foundation that enables graduates to meet occupational competencies. However, educational needs for students differ from the needs of practitioners. In addition, there must be a clear connection between departments of public health and all other health care entities to ensure proper preparedness. The authors describe both a process and a list of core competencies for teaching emergency preparedness to students in the health care professions, developed in 2003 and 2004 by a team of experts from the four health professions schools of Columbia University in New York City. These competencies are directly applicable to medical, dental, nursing, and public health students. They can also easily be adapted to other health care disciplines, so long as differences in levels of proficiency and the need for clinical competency are taken into consideration.
A network perspective of stakeholder relationships in the context of sustainable urban tourism

Publisher: name: University of Calgary

description: Bibliography: p. 298-309
description: This research studied how sustainable tourism policies could best be developed and ultimately implemented in urban tourism destinations. To achieve this goal, the study examined how the concept of sustainable tourism was interpreted in urban destinations, and analyzed the existing pattern of relationships among urban tourism destination stakeholders to determine roles and potential influences of legitimate and powerful stakeholders in tourism policymaking. The sample of this research included three clusters - industry, host environment and community, and government authorities - in three cities. The study was conducted in two stages. The first stage used a qualitative and the second stage used a quantitative methodology. Interviews and a survey instrument were used to gather data in the qualitative and quantitative stages respectively. The study employed both network analysis and statistical analyses to examine the data. The relationships among destination stakeholders were analyzed through network analysis. This tool offered a new way of studying tourism destination stakeholder interactions. The network analysis determined a basic structure of how tourism functions in cities and also identified the most important, important and unimportant stakeholders within a tourism network. The Destination Management Organizations (DMOs) were the most central stakeholders across tourism networks. The structural position of DMOs suggested that they could carry significant roles in tourism policymaking. This study also contributed to theoretical advancement in sustainable urban tourism by providing perspectives of various destination stakeholders on the sustainable tourism concept in the context of urban destinations. A policy framework in which sustainable tourism development can be achieved is introduced. This framework is developed by identifying legitimate and powerful stakeholders of tourism planning, development or policy formulation through stakeholder analysis, and by balancing the diverse goals and interests of destination stakeholders through stakeholder management process. The way stakeholder perspective is used in this study contributed to the development of stakeholder theory not only by applying it in a policy domain but also analyzing multiple and interdependent stakeholder interactions rather than dyadic stakeholder relationships. The framework proposed in this study could also help narrow the "policy gap" in destinations by incorporating tourism planning and development to the DMOs' mandate.

description: We address the possibility that CP-violation in $B_s-\bar B_s$ mixing may help explain the origin of the cosmic baryon asymmetry. We propose a new baryogenesis mechanism - "Electroweak Beautygenesis" - explicitly showing that these two CP-violating phenomena can be sourced by a common CP-phase. As an illustration, we work in the Two-Higgs-Doublet model. Because the relevant CP-phase is flavor off-diagonal, this mechanism is less severely constrained by null results of electric dipole moment searches than other scenarios. We show how measurements of flavor observables by the D0, CDF, and LHCb collaborations test this scenario.

Virginia Tech Shootings (Blacksburg, Virginia, 2007)

description: Schools in the US are by and large safe environments where millions of our children are secure and thrive. Outbreaks of fatal violence like the recent shootings at Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University (Virginia Tech) are, fortunately, rare. In fact, the odds of a student losing his or her life to homicide are 50 times more likely while off school grounds. Because of the extraordinary consequences and societal shock waves caused by a low-probability mass casualty disaster in a school, this becomes one of the “all hazards” that campuses must plan to face, albeit with limited budgets and resources.
This is not to say that we should bypass the opportunity to learn from the lessons and unpredicted shortfalls that any crisis reveals. Within weeks of the lethal violence at Virginia Tech, the first round of meetings to analyze the catastrophe was organized in Washington, DC. Officials from the Departments of Justice, Education, and Health and Human Services, along with a range of key stakeholders, participated in the discussions that focused on conditions or gaps that may have contributed to or exacerbated the consequences of this particular incident. The result of this after-incident analysis was a series of specific actions that could reduce the risk for a similar occurrence.

description: Studies consistently report that asylum seekers held in immigration detention have relatively high rates of mental distress, yet evidence of the long-term impact of immigration detention is limited. Using propensity score–based methods, we estimated the impact of immigration detention on the prevalence of nonspecific psychological distress, using the Kessler-6, and probable posttraumatic stress dis?order (PTSD), using the PTSD-8, among participants in a national sample of asylum seekers in the 5 years following their resettlement in Australia (N = 334). At Wave 1, the prevalence of nonspecific psychological distress was high among all participants regardless of detainment status, OR = 0.28, 95% CI [0.04, 2.06], and did not change over time for either detainees (n = 222), OR = 1.01, 95% CI [0.46, 2.18], or nondetainees (n = 103), OR = 0.81, 95% CI [0.39, 1.67]. In contrast, the odds of probable PTSD were significantly higher for former detainees, OR = 8.20; 95% CI [2.61, 26.73], than nondetainees at Wave 1; although they declined among former detainees, OR = 0.56, 95% CI [0.38, 0.82]), and increased among nondetainees, OR = 1.57, 95% CI [1.11, 2.23], in the years following resettlement. These results imply the use of immigration detention to manage unauthorized migration increases the prevalence of probable PTSD in the short term among former detainees who have resettled in Australia.

description: Nuclear quadrupole resonance measurements have shown evidences that the heavy fermion compound CeRhIn$_5$ exhibits a coexistent phase with commensurate antiferromagnetism and d-wave superconductivity. In order to clarify the nature of the spin-excitations in the coexistent phase, we have applied the RPA method to an itinerant model, where the effective interaction is given by two mean-field terms of commensurate antiferromagnetism and d-wave superconductivity. It is shown that, around the transition line between the antiferromagnetic and the coexistent states, a low-energy incommensurate spin-excitation is found to develop due to Fermi surface nesting. This feature reminds of the switching of magnetic ordering wave vector observed in the neutron diffraction. Further, we also calculate spin relaxation rate, which gives a reasonable explanation of the temperature dependence of NQR relaxation rate in the system with the coexistent ground state.

description: We have measured dielectronic recombination (DR) resonance strengths and energies for carbon-like Fe XXI forming Fe XX and for boron-like Fe XXII forming Fe XXI via N = 2 → N' = 2 core excitations. All measurements were carried out using the heavy-ion Test Storage Ring at the Max-Planck-Institute for Nuclear Physics in Heidelberg, Germany. We have also calculated these resonance strengths and energies using three independent, state-of-the-art perturbative techniques: a multiconfiguration Breit-Pauli (MCBP) method using the code AUTOSTRUCTURE, a multiconfiguration Dirac-Fock (MCDF) method, and a relativistic configuration interaction method using the Flexible Atomic Code (FAC). Overall, reasonable agreement is found between our experimental results and our theoretical calculations. The most notable discrepancies tend to occur for relative collision energies ≲ 3 eV. We have used our measured 2 → 2 results to produce Maxwellian-averaged rate coefficients for Fe XXI and Fe XXII. Our experimentally derived rate coefficients are estimated to be accurate to better than ≈20% both for Fe XXI at kBTe > 0.5 eV and for Fe XXII at kBTe >0.001 eV. For these results, we provide fits that are accurate to better than 0.5% for Fe XXI at 0.001 eV ≤ kBTe ≤ 10,000 eV and for Fe XXII at 0.02 eV ≲ kBTe ≤ 10,000 eV. Our fitted rate coefficients are suitable for ionization balance calculations involving Fe XXI and Fe XXII in photoionized plasmas. Previous published Burgess formula and LS-coupling calculations are in poor agreement with our experimentally derived rate coefficients. None of these published calculations reliably reproduce the magnitude or temperature dependence of our experimental results. Our previously published Fe XXI MCDF results are in good agreement with our experimental results for kBTe ≳ 0.07 eV. For both ions in this temperature range our new MCBP, MCDF, and FAC results are in excellent agreement with our experimentally derived rate coefficient.

description: Seasonal breeding of indigenous game species in fenced areas was documented from Upper Paleolithic time in some parts of Europe known as winter foddering of red deer, but expansion of fenced hunting game parks, where game was permanently present, has become widespread from Middle Ages. Nowadays, we can recognise in some countries of Europe two type of breeding of fenced game, extensive called as deer/game parks or estates and intensive game farms with majority of deer farms. The deer farming as industry in Europe is recognised from early seventies last century in the most countries even some small hobby breeders has been always present. In general, game kept in parks and estates serve mainly for conservation of species and habitats and of course for trophy hunting. On the contrary deer is bred in farms mainly for meat production because of stable and controlled quality and for live sales because of outstanding quality. Nevertheless, we can recognise broad diversity of approaches based on game historical use, legislation and also environmental condition across Europe. Therefore, game is broadly considered and managed as wild under extensive fenced system and as domestic livestock with some exemptions on game farms. Historically, game in fenced areas owned by nobility helped to preserve indigenous species, but very often was also as place for introduction of exotics. Recently to release exotic species in wild or to keep them in game parks is prohibited by legal conditions in most countries, but usually permitted in farms. To recognise, what is exotic species is usually based on historical presence. Therefore, some ungulates originated in Asia or North America introduced one or more hundred years ago to game park, which established local populations in wild after escape, become hunted game in wild and in fenced areas as well and generally accepted. Talk will overview game management approaches, problems and challenges in Europe based on hunter's and/or meat producer's perspective frame it in conservation effect and giving examples not only from the Czech Republic.
Elucidating the function of the type-III secreted effector proteins EspZ and NleC of the attaching and effacing bacterial pathogens

description: Enteropathogenic and enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EPEC and EHEC, respectively) are attaching and effacing (A/E) bacterial pathogens that cause diarrheal disease. EPEC causes severe infantile diarrhea in developing countries whereas EHEC infection results in severe bloody diarrhea worldwide. These pathogens employ a type-III secretion system (T3SS) encoded on the locus of enterocyte effacement (LEE) pathogenicity island (PAI) to inject a panel of effector proteins directly into infected host cells where they subvert host cell functions. The roles of many type-III secreted (T3S) effectors remain to be elucidated. Here, we have elucidated functions for the T3S effectors EspZ and NleC. EPEC infection causes host cell cytotoxicity and death. We demonstrated that EspZ enhances host cell survival during EPEC infection. Removal of espZ from the EPEC genome (∆espZ) exacerbated host cell cytotoxicity. We found that EspZ interacts with host CD98 and contributes to protection against EPEC-mediated cytotoxicity by enhancing phosphorylation of focal adhesion kinase (FAK). Further investigation revealed that EPEC ∆espZ infection caused a severe decrease in host mitochondrial inner membrane potential (∆ψm) concurrently with host cell lysis. We also found that EspZ localizes to host cell mitochondria and interacts with the translocase of inner mitochondrial membrane (TIM) 17B. These studies are the first to demonstrate EspZ function. Many non-LEE encoded (Nle) effector proteins impact innate immune signaling and we thus examined the contribution of the T3S zinc-metalloprotease NleC to this phenotype. We identified the host acetyltransferase p300 as a target of NleC and show that NleC causes decreased abundance of p300 in cellular nuclei. We further demonstrate that over-expression of p300 antagonizes repression of interleukin (IL)-8 secretion by EPEC and that small interfering ribonucleic acid (siRNA) knock-down of p300 dampens IL-8 secretion by EPEC ∆nleC-infected cells. Thesis work has identified a target of NleC and provided the first example of a bacterial virulence factor targeting the acetyltransferase p300. The work presented in this thesis provides novel insight into the function of two T3S effector proteins, EspZ and NleC. The mechanistic insight gained by these studies has thoroughly enhanced the understanding of these important virulence factors and their contribution to A/E pathogen infection.

Globalization, Technology, and Asian Development

description: Globalization has many dimensions, mostly familiar to many such as trade, capital, labor, and knowledge. We distinguish between short-term and long-term capital flows, and between foreign direct investment and short-term capital flows. In terms of labor, we are not only interested in the flows of labor across countries but also across education markets. But these are only the economic dimensions of globalization. There are other dimensions to globalization as well, having to do with, for instance, globalization of civil society, which has had such an important impact on so many aspects of recent events. This discussion focuses on the economic dimensions of globalization and tries to relate them in a more positive way to development.
What Politics is This Place? (Post)Glocal Politics in Latin America's Public Spaces

description: The IASTE 2004 conference proposes that "postglobal is not an end to globalization but the emergence of a different kind of engagement that is sharply at odds with the visions of liberal, multicultural globalization. Here, both religious fundamentalism and imperial hegemony begin to emerge as the new forms of." Yet, there are other types of (post)globalizations (Sklair, 2002). And at least one such alternative form of global engagement is that which (desperately) holds on to the visions of a liberal, multicultural globalization in the politics of nation building, particularly as enacted in urban spaces. Focusing on this form, this paper interrogates the role of both traditional and post-traditional Latin American urban places in the present (post)glocal era, where the post-traditional is understood as a spatio-political repositioning that unsettles the historically developed relationships between places and meanings.
