Book excerpt: La possibilité forestière représente le volume maximum des récoltes annuelles à perpétuité sans nuire à la capacité productive du milieu forestier. Les niveaux de récolte actuels dans la province de Québec, qui alimentent un réseau industriel dominé par la production de bois de sciage, de panneaux et de pâte, ne représentent en moyenne que 55% de la possibilité forestière, ce qui peut entraîner une dégradation graduelle de la ressource forestière si les peuplements de haute qualité sont récoltés en premier. Dans ce contexte, l'utilisation d'arbres de basse qualité et de peuplements moins désirés pour la production de bioénergie pourrait contribuer à améliorer à la fois les pratiques sylvicoles et la rentabilité de la chaîne de valeur. Le but de cette étude était d'identifier les facteurs biophysiques et socio-économiques qui affectent la proportion de la possibilité forestière récoltée dans les 74 unités de gestion du Québec, permettant ainsi d'identifier les peuplements qui pourraient être valorisés en bioénergie. Les résultats, issus d'analyse des données de possibilité et de récolte forestière pour la période 2008- 2013, ont montré que la proportion de récolte était particulièrement faible pour les espèces feuillues, cette proportion pour les peupliers, le bouleaux et les érables variant seulement entre 19 et 38%. La distance entre la ressource et l'usine de pâte ou de panneaux la plus proche a été confirmée comme facteur principal du ratio récolte/possibilité forestière pour les espèces feuillues. Pour les espèces résineuses, plus la présence de peuplements feuillus est dominante dans une unité d'aménagement, plus le ratio de récolte/possibilité forestière est bas. Ainsi, les feuillus de qualité inférieure pourraient être utilisés comme une source importante de matière première dans le secteur de la bioénergie. Le développement d'une synergie entre les produits traditionnels et ceux de bioénergie pourrait faciliter l'application de saines pratiques sylvicoles et augmenter la rentabilité pour l'ensemble de la chaîne de valeur des produits forestiers.

Download or read book Being Alive Well written by Naomi Adelson and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 2000-12-15 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Being Alive Well': Health and the Politics of Cree Well-Being is a critical medical anthropological analysis of health theory in the social sciences with specific reference to the James Bay Cree of northern Quebec. In it the author argues that definitions of health are not simply reflections of physiological soundness but convey broader cultural and political realities. The book begins with a treatise on the study of health in the social sciences and a call for a broader understanding of the cultural parameters of any definition of health. Following a chapter that outlines the history of the Whapmagoostui (Great Whale River) region and the people, Adelson presents the underlying symbolic foundations of a Cree concept of health, or miyupimaatisiiun. The core of this book is an ethnographic study of the Whapmagoostui Cree and their particular concept of "health" (miyupimaatisiiun or "being alive well"). That concept is mediated by history, cultural practices, and the contemporary world of the Cree, including their fundamental concerns about their land and culture. In the contemporary context, health – or more specifically, "being alive well" – for the Cree of Great Whale is an intimate fusion of social, political, and personal well-being, thus linking individual bodies to a larger socio-political reality.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'The book clearly fills a void in the field of social impact assessment and should be well received by researchers involved in the field. One particularly strong point of the book is the presentation and review of studies that have not been published previously in readily accessible forms (e.g. agency reports, project reports, etc.). There is a wealth of information in such sources, and Finsterbusch has done us a service by making some of this material available here.' -- Organization Studies, Vol 3 No 4 1982 'The book's main contribution is the enormous amount and variety of data included in each of the chapters.' -- Journal of Applied Behavioral Science, Vol 18 No 2 1982 'In this volume, Finsterbusch seek

Download or read book Toward a Rational Society written by Juergen Habermas and published by Beacon Press. This book was released on 1971-08-01 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Knowledge, communication, action – These are the concepts central to all of Habermas's thought. As a philosopher, he is concerned with the rational connections of these concepts. As a sociologist, he is prepared to analyze with care the distortions of human interactions caused by existing social and political institutions. In a series of connected essays, the author assesses the function of the contemporary university, and sharply analyzes contemporary students and their political efforts. He then brilliantly analyzes as a communications model the relationships between research institutes and the political agencies which employ them. The book concludes with a complex discussion of technology and science as an "ideology," dedicated to Herbert Marcuse. Critical parts of Marcuse's thought, Habermas dissects contemporary democratic dialogue and offers an important preliminary sketch of a general theory of social evolution. He analyzes the difference between the technological sphere of control and the practical sphere of communication and interaction as the basic feature of human social life, and explains how and why the predominance of the technological sphere is the distinguishing and alienating characteristic of advanced industrial society. The concepts of depoliticization and the freeing of communication emerge as the crux of today's political situation.

Download or read book Communication and the Evolution of Society written by Jürgen Habermas and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2015-10-07 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this important volume Habermas outlines the views which form the basis of his critical theory of modern societies. The volume comprises five interlocking essays, which together define the contours of his theory of communication and of his substantive account of social change. 'What is Universal Pragmatics?' is the best available statement of Habermas's programme for a theoryof communication based on the analysis of speech acts. In the following two essays Habermas draws on the work of Kohlberg and others to develop a distinctive account of moral consciousness and normative structures. 'Toward a Reconstruction of historical Materialsim' takes these issues further, offering a wide-ranging reconstruction of Marx's historical materialsim understood as a theory of social evolution. The final essay focuses on the question of legitimacy and on the legitimation problems faced by modern states. This book is essential reading for anyone concerned with the key questions of social and political theory today.
