Time and Space in the Globalization of Capital and Their Implications for State Power
TL;DR: The authors argue that the spatial turn associated with the interest in the globalization of capital has been overdone and that a temporal (re)turn is overdue: time and temporality are at least as important as space and spatiality in the logic of economic globalization.
Book
General Continuum Mechanics
TL;DR: In this article, a new approach is pioneered in providing a unified theory in continuum mechanics, which is intended for the beginner, but it develops advanced material covering interdisciplinary subjects, such as convective, Lagrangian, and Eulerian coordinates and the first and second laws of thermodynamics.
Journal ArticleDOI
Einstein's lessons for energy accounting in LCA
TL;DR: The role and meaning of accounting for energy, including feedstock energy, is reviewed in this article in connection to Einstein's special theory of relativity, and one possible energy accounting scheme as an indicator of the consumption of non-renewable energy resources within the impact assessment of LCA is sketched.

How Hume and Mach Helped Einstein Find Special Relativity
TL;DR: In this article, the authors review the path Einstein took to special relativity and urge that at a critical juncture, he was aided decisively not by any specific doctrine of space and time, but by a general account of concepts that Einstein found in Hume and Mach's writings.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cosmological implications of unimodular gravity
TL;DR: In this paper, a model of gravity and matter fields which is invariant only under unimodular general coordinate transformations (GCT) was proposed, where the determinant of the metric is treated as a separate field which transforms as a scalar under GCT.
