Agricultural System Models in Field Research and Technology Transfer
Manufacturer: CRC ProductGroup: Book Binding: Hardcover ASIN: 1566705630 |
Book Description
Most books covering the use of computer models in agricultural management systems target only one or two types of models. There are few texts available that cover the subject of systems modeling comprehensively and that deal with various approaches, applications, evaluations, and uses for technology transfer. Agricultural System Models in Field Research and Technology Transfer fills this need. It presents the latest advances in the use of various computer models in agricultural management systems. This authoritative reference provides guidance on the use of models in field research, decision support, precision farming, and technology transfer to farmers and ranchers. Derived from an international symposium co-sponsored by the American Society of Agronomy, the Soil Science Society of America, and the USDA's Agricultural Research Service, it analyzes current system model applications for the modeling of natural resources, crop production, grazing lands, and animal production systems. Leading international agricultural system scientists present their experiences and provide guidance on how models can be used to enhance the quality of field research, transfer of research information and technology to farmers and ranchers, and decision support for agricultural management. They provide an expert review of the existing problems and possible solutions to improve future applications. In addition, Agricultural System Models in Field Research and Technology Transfer explores the possible use of an international modular computer framework to improve current modeling procedures in an effort to develop problem-specific models in the future.

The Trajectory of Change: Activist Strategies for Social Transformation
Michael Albert Manufacturer: South End Press ProductGroup: Book Binding: Paperback Similar Items:
ASIN: 0896086623 |
Book Description
The Trajectory of Change charts a course for the growing, international movement against corporate globalization. Michael Albert, a longtime activist and analyst of popular struggles, challenges the movement to reach out to "ordinary people" by demonstrating how their lives are negatively affected by creeping corporatism.
Albert connects issues confronting working people in the United States (such as access to health care, workplace rights and safety, declining wages, and unemployment) to a critique of institutions that currently dominate the global economy. And he offers a compelling argument for a strategy based on civil disobedience and protest rather than individual acts of vandalism or violence.
Albert also suggests reasons for the recent revival of political protest, from the Battle in Seattle to the demonstrations in Quebec,Canada, and Genoa, Italy. At the same time, he argues that it isn't enough for protesters to stand against global economic injustice. To be effective, Albert argues that we need to develop a clear vision of what we stand for. He makes the case for collectively creating a vision of a participatory, democratic, and egalitarian society.
Michael Albert is a founder of Z Magazine and Z Net, a web site and electronic commentary service based in Woods Hole, Massachusetts. He also co-founded South End Press. He is the author of Looking Forward (with Robert Hahnel) and Stop the Killing Trade, among other books on economics and social change.

If we accept the need to organize ever greater numbers of people with ever greater militancy, where do go then? According to Albert we first have to reach out beyond social barriers like race and class (leftist university students need to talk to people in sports bars), and then we have to give a lot of thought to the "stickiness problem". That is, why do so few people stick with left activism after being exposed to it?
The two key issues Albert brings up are a lack of vision and a culture of personal criticism. If the movement can offer incisive critiques of social inequality but has no idea what institutions it wants to put in place, isn't activism literally pointless? And if interpersonal relations in the left have more to do with castigating activists who eat at McDonald's, wear Nikes, or watch TV than with making friends and partying, who would want to stay?
Running through each of Albert's arguments is the idea that we have to start paying attention to class. The left is now highly sensitive to race and gender inequality, both within and without the movement. So why is class inequality ignored in society and reproduced in our organizations? Albert has his own highly original explanation for why attention to class, once the preeminent target, virtually disappeared from the left (pp. 87-103), but the ultimate point is that classlessness needs to become a priority again -- both because the left opposes oppression and because working people won't find the left attractive until it stops reproducing the hierarchical forms of organization they suffer from every day in their work lives.
In all, this is a vital book for anyone working for social change. And it's short enough that even the busy activist can read it in a couple days.

Asia-Pacific Economic and Security Co-Operation
Manufacturer: Palgrave Macmillan ProductGroup: Book Binding: Hardcover ASIN: 1403918031 |
Book Description
This collection examines new developments in economic and security co-operation in the Asia-Pacific in relation to two recent "shock" events that have significantly impacted upon the region, these being the 1997/98 East Asian financial crisis and the September 11 attacks on the United States. These are examined through three "prime dimensions" of analysis, namely: the tension between the "post-shock" forces of "imperative co-operation" and the counter-forces of Asia-Pacific "complex diversity"; the growing conflation between economic and security issues--or the "economics-security nexus"--in Asia-Pacific international relations; the relationship between the Asia-Pacific's new economic and security bilateralism and regional-level forms of co-operation, integration and governance.
