This book was released on 2015-06-26 with total page 498 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Post-War Economic Policy and Planning, Vol. 5 The fourth report of the House Special Committee on Postwar Economic Policy and Planning, issued September 8, 1944, contained a brief discussion of the principal problems of agriculture in the postwar reconversion period. Shortly after the publication of that report the Subcommittee on Agriculture and Mining undertook a series of hearings to investigate further the problems discussed in the fourth report. As a first step the subcommittee felt it was important to inquire into the longer range goals toward which our agriculture should seek to reconvert. Without a clarification of our objectives in this field it seemed clear-that no constructive national policy could be developed other than one of temporizing with immediate problems and complaints. The subcommittee's inquiry was begun on August 23, 1944, with testimony from Secretary of Agriculture Claude R. Wickard and War Food Administrator Marvin Jones. After receiving statements from these two administrative officials, it was felt that a canvass should be made of the views of the leading nongovernmental students of agricultural problems. The bulk of these hearings therefore record the views of some of the people who have been associated with programs for agriculture and have made exhaustive studies of its problems. In inviting its witnesses to appear at the hearings, the subcommittee asked for suggestions upon four basic questions: 1. Basic long-run policies to lessen instability of income resulting from variations in production and in demand; 2. Basic policies to place agriculture on a satisfactory self-sustaining basis in long run; 3. Policies to promote higher levels of consumption and nutrition; and 4. Relationship between our foreign trade policy and domestic agriculture policies. On the basis of this testimony the subcommittee plans to reexamine the major goals to be sought in framing agricultural legislation to the end that specific laws may be coordinated and directed toward more definitely understood goals. One of the assignments of the House Special Committee on Postwar Economic Policy and Planning has been that of studying and reporting to the Congress upon the basic components of a coordinated postwar economic policy for the Nation. It is the plan of this Subcommittee on Agriculture and Mining to examine the problems of agriculture from the points of view both of the farmers themselves and also of the national well-being and the attainment of our goal of a stable and prosperous economy, one which preserves, protects, and promotes freedom, enterprise, and high attainment. The views expressed in this report of hearings contain valuable contributions to this end. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book 2021 Global food policy report  Transforming food systems after COVID 19  Synopsis

Download or read book 2021 Global food policy report Transforming food systems after COVID 19 Synopsis written by International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI) and published by Intl Food Policy Res Inst. This book was released on 2021-04-13 with total page 8 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The coronavirus pandemic has upended local, national, and global food systems, and put the Sustainable Development Goals further out of reach. But lessons from the world’s response to the pandemic can help address future shocks and contribute to food system change. In the 2021 Global Food Policy Report, IFPRI researchers and other food policy experts explore the impacts of the pandemic and government policy responses, particularly for the poor and disadvantaged, and consider what this means for transforming our food systems to be healthy, resilient, efficient, sustainable, and inclusive. Chapters in the report look at balancing health and economic policies, promoting healthy diets and nutrition, strengthening social protection policies and inclusion, integrating natural resource protection into food sector policies, and enhancing the contribution of the private sector. Regional sections look at the diverse experiences around the world, and a special section on finance looks at innovative ways of funding food system transformation. Critical questions addressed include: - Who felt the greatest impact from falling incomes and food system disruptions caused by the pandemic? - How can countries find an effective balance among health, economic, and social policies in the face of crisis? - How did lockdowns affect diet quality and quantity in rural and urban areas? - Do national social protection systems such as cash transfers have the capacity to protect poor and vulnerable groups in a global crisis? - Can better integration of agricultural and ecosystem polices help prevent the next pandemic? - How did companies accelerate ongoing trends in digitalization and integration to keep food supply chains moving? - What different challenges did the pandemic spark in Asia, Africa, and Latin America and how did these regions respond?

Book Who Rules America Now

Download or read book Who Rules America Now written by G. William Domhoff and published by Touchstone. This book was released on 1986 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author is convinced that there is a ruling class in America today. He examines the American power structure as it has developed in the 1980s. He presents systematic, empirical evidence that a fixed group of privileged people dominates the American economy and government. The book demonstrates that an upper class comprising only one-half of one percent of the population occupies key positions within the corporate community. It shows how leaders within this "power elite" reach government and dominate it through processes of special-interest lobbying, policy planning and candidate selection. It is written not to promote any political ideology, but to analyze our society with accuracy.
