Public opinion on climate changePublic opinion on climate change is the aggregate of attitudes or beliefs held by a population concerning issues relating to "anthropogenic climate change, perceptions of climate change risks, concern about its seriousness, and thoughts on what, if anything, should be done to address it." Public opinion on climate change is related to a broad set of variables, including the effects of sociodemographic, political, cultural, economic, and environmental factors" as well as media coverage and interaction with different news and social media.
Espace métriqueEn mathématiques et plus particulièrement en topologie, un espace métrique est un ensemble au sein duquel une notion de distance entre les éléments de l'ensemble est définie. Les éléments seront, en général, appelés des points. Tout espace métrique est canoniquement muni d'une topologie. Les espaces métrisables sont les espaces topologiques obtenus de cette manière. L'exemple correspondant le plus à notre expérience intuitive de l'espace est l'espace euclidien à trois dimensions.
Coherent sheaf cohomologyIn mathematics, especially in algebraic geometry and the theory of complex manifolds, coherent sheaf cohomology is a technique for producing functions with specified properties. Many geometric questions can be formulated as questions about the existence of sections of line bundles or of more general coherent sheaves; such sections can be viewed as generalized functions. Cohomology provides computable tools for producing sections, or explaining why they do not exist. It also provides invariants to distinguish one algebraic variety from another.
Démocratievignette|La République instruisant la Démocratie (statue du Père-Lachaise, division 65). Le terme démocratie, du grec ancien δημοκρατία / dēmokratía, combinaison de δῆμος / dêmos, « peuple » (de δαίομαι / daíomai, « distribuer, répartir »), et kratos, « le pouvoir », dérivé du verbe kratein, « commander », désigne à l'origine un régime politique dans lequel tous les citoyens participent aux décisions publiques et à la vie politique de la cité.
DissentDissent is an opinion, philosophy or sentiment of non-agreement or opposition to a prevailing idea or policy enforced under the authority of a government, political party or other entity or individual. A dissenting person may be referred to as a dissenter. The term's antonyms include agreement, consensus (when all or nearly all parties agree on something) and consent (when one party agrees to a proposition made by another).
Group conflictGroup conflict, or hostilities between different groups, is a feature common to all forms of human social organization (e.g., sports teams, ethnic groups, nations, religions, gangs), and also occurs in social animals. Although group conflict is one of the most complex phenomena studied by social scientists, the history of the human race evidences a series of group-level conflicts that have gained notoriety over the years. For example, from 1820 to 1945, it has been estimated that at least 59 million persons were killed during conflicts between groups of one type or another.
