Download or read book The New Biological Economy written by Eric Pawson and published by Auckland University Press. This book was released on 2018-10-11 with total page 468 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For over a century, New Zealand has built its economy through a series of commodity-based booms—from wood and wool to beef and butter. Now the country faces new challenges. In a world where value is increasingly rooted in capital- and technology-intensive industries, can countries dependent on agriculture really sustain its high living standards by growing crops? This book takes readers out on to farms, orchards, and vineyards, and inside the offices and factories of processors and exporters, to show how innovative New Zealanders are answering these challenges. From Icebreaker clothing to Mr Apple fruit exports, innovative companies are creating high-value, unique products, rooted in particular places, and making pathways to the niche markets where they can realize that value.
Download or read book The Structural Limits of the Law written by Stephen M. Young and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-07-11 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines how, in response to crises, law tends to construct singular ‘events’ that obscure the underlying structural causes that any adequate response needs to acknowledge and address. Litigation is the main legal process that constructs events through a narrative that describes what happened and prescribes what should happen. Courts are theatres with competing stories and intense controversies. The legal event is compelling. But, through the examination of several cases from a range of jurisdictions, this book argues that the ability to construct and reconstruct legal events is so strong, appealing, and powerful that it limits our ability to engage in structural analysis. The difficulty of seeing beyond what is here called ‘the event horizon of legality’ interprets aspects of life as exceptional rather than structural, as it focuses attention on a limited range of possible causes, and so a limited range of possible interventions. So, if issues like famine, obesity, poverty, a rising cost of living, and climate change are even partially produced through non-eventful modalities of power, like colonialism, imperialism, or global capitalism, then, as this book analyzes, the event horizon of legality can only ensure that those issues continue. The book therefore calls for a critical re-evaluation of the role of law in shaping our representation of, and response, to crises; and so, for a rethinking of the power and promise of law. This original analysis of the operation of law will appeal to sociolegal scholars and legal theorists, as well as others working in relevant areas in critical and social theory.

Download or read book Agri Food Commodity Chains and Globalising Networks written by Richard Le Heron and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-03-16 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Within the international agri-food community at least four theoretical targets are attracting increasing attention. They are: (1) the established notions of networks and commodity chains that are being revisited by way of critical engagement informed by the insights of in-depth empirical work, (2) the metrics of calculation and institutional embedding that underpin the rise and functionality of governance technologies, (3) the place of regional networking in creating conditions that make possible agri-food producer participation in local provisioning and supply, and (4) the geo-historical dimensions of interconnection and interdependency in the agri-food sphere. This volume brings together an interdisciplinary team of anthropologists, economists, business and management academics and geographers to examine a wide range of case studies illustrating various agri-food commodity chains and networks around the world and to discuss how they link globally.
