چکیده

This article argues that we need to look at living examples provided by non-state communities in various regions of the world are, perhaps unwittingly, contributing maintenance Earth’s optimal thermal balance. These fully sustainable have been outside mainstream for centuries, even millennia, providing global struggle against degradation social–ecological systems. They all, varying degrees, embraced simple forms make them ‘exemplary ethical communities’ (EECs)—human with a track record sustainability related traditional knowledge and capacity survive capitalist market nation-state system. The proceeds three steps: First, it condenses large body research on limits existing system its accompanying ideology, nationalism, identifying this institutional–ideological complex as major obstacle tackling climate change. Second, alternative social formations could offer viable micro-level micro-scale alternatives are suggested. unlikely identify nation-states they often form distinct types communities. Taking from hunter-gatherer societies simple-living religious groups, is shown how protection these EECs become keystone survival humankind other life. Finally, further investigation called for, into researchers can come forward more actually might provide pathways resistance looming environmental catastrophe.

A New Optimal Solution Concept for Fuzzy Optimal Control Problems

In this paper, we propose the new concept of optimal solution for fuzzy variational problems based on the possibility and necessity measures. Inspired by the well–known embedding theorem, we can transform the fuzzy variational problem into a bi–objective variational problem. Then the optimal solutions of fuzzy variational problem can be obtained by solving its corresponding biobjective variatio...
