From the "Going Out" strategy in the 2000s to the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) launched in 2013, China has increased its overseas investment and extended the coal value chain beyond its border. Despite China's commitment of greening the BRI and phasing out overseas coal investment, the socio-environmental impacts of the projects that are already planned, under construction, or in operation are expected to remain.

Two Turtles : Children and Autonomy in Participatory Technological Design / Vallès-Peris, Núria (Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona. Departament de Psicologia Social) ; Domènech i Argemí, Miquel (Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona. Departament de Psicologia Social)
This paper explores some issues that emerged in research about a participatory design process with children to develop a pre-prototype of a social robot for hospitalized children. Using as an anecdotic inspiration, the coincidence of the designing of two turtles as social-robot prototypes, one by roboticists and the other one by children, this chapter explores and reflects on the autonomy of children in a participatory process of technological design.

This article analyzes musical practices of rurality in Asturias (northern Spain), focusing on these practices as transits beyond rural-urban, local-transnational, and music-life dichotomies. We map out three modes of the production of locality in relation to musical heritage in order to point out a prevalence of the phenomena of "aural friction" (García-Flórez) and "mutuality" (Colón-Montijo) in expressive practices connected to this underground scene in the context of 2008's rise of neo-liberalism.
