Download or read book Public Policy in Agriculture written by Ashok K. Mishra and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-08-07 with total page 395 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years, developed countries have formulated public policies in agriculture ranging from supporting rural life and farm income to promoting sustainability of food and fibre production. Public Policy in Agriculture: Impact on Labor Supply and Household Income addresses the lack of empirical research in this area. It explores the impact of differing approaches to public policy through a series of international case studies, from the USA and Canada to South Korea, Norway, Slovenia and Taiwan. At a time when much of the developed world has been experiencing budget deficits and policy-makers and the public in general have re-opened the debate on public expenditures in the agricultural sector, this is a timely volume. Mishra, Viaggi and Gomez y Paloma have written an authoritative guide to agricultural public policy that will serve as a reference for academics, researchers, students, and policy-makers.

Today, Hutterite colonies are unique features of the agricultural landscape of Manitoba. This pioneering study, based on years of field research, presents a thorough account of every aspect of the agricultural base of the Hutterite way of life.

Download or read book Natural Resources In U S Canadian Relations Volume 1 written by Carl E. Beigie and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-03-08 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The combined efforts of the World Peace Foundation, the C. D. Howe Research Institute, and the Centre Québécois de Relations Internationales have culminated in a comprehensive three-volume study of critical U.S.-Canadian resource issues. Motivated initially by the tensions of the mid-1970s and by U.S. concern about the actions of its major non-energy resource supplier, Canada, the study grew to examine bilateral resource issues from a long-term perspective. The first volume traces the background of the U.S.-Canadian resource connection, analyzes the evolution of resource policies and processes in the two countries, and introduces the domestic and bilateral policy issues that have emerged regarding natural resource development and trade. Contributors examine the possibility that Canada might seek to exploit its resource position by taking actions detrimental to U.S. interests. Volume II, Patterns and Trends in Resource Supplies and Policies, presents detailed case studies of nine specific resources of interest to both countries. Volume III, Perspectives, Prospects, and Policy Options, examines the resource sector from the perspectives of corporate investors, workers, and environmentalists and concludes with a review of policy options and prospects for the bilateral relationship.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Bureau, precursor to Statistics Canada, was founded in 1918 as a centralized national agency to replace piecemeal arrangements which had developed over time and no longer satisfied statistical needs. The author (who is a retired assistant chief statistician of Canada) traces its evolution and looks at the individuals who influenced it. He discusses how Canada's statistical system has coped with the country's evolution from a staple economy to a mature industrial power; the changing nature of the technology for gathering, compiling, analyzing, and disseminating information; and some notable Canadian contributions to the science and production of statistics.

Download or read book Rescaling International Political Economy written by Darel E. Paul and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-11-01 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A major trend in recent years in political and economic geography has been the increasingly sophisticated use of the concept of scale. Rescaling International Political Economy sits squarely in geographical debates regarding scale and globalization, but Darel Paul does it within the framework if international political economy. In particular, he argues for the importance of subnational states and localities in creating globalization, and focuses on regions in North America. Alongside his arguments about scalar transformations, Paul looks at how the processes serve transnational capital and how they work to construct the transnational capitalist class which currently rules the globe. His regulationist approach, which stresses how the centrality of state institutions in managing the global economy, will revolutionize how we think about globalization.
Download or read book Cultivating Community written by Jodey Nurse and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 2022-02-22 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For close to two hundred years, families and individuals across Ontario have travelled down country roads and gathered to enjoy seasonal agricultural fairs. Though some features of township and county fairs have endured for generations, these community events have also undergone significant transformations since 1850, especially in terms of women’s participation. Cultivating Community tells the story of how women’s involvement became critical to agricultural fairs’ growth and prosperity. By examining women’s diverse roles as agricultural society members, fair exhibitors, performers, volunteers, and fairgoers, Jodey Nurse shows that women used fairs’ manifold nature to present different versions of rural womanhood. Although traditional domestic skills and handicrafts, such as baking, needlework, and flower arrangement, remained the domain of women throughout this period, women steadily enlarged their sphere of influence on the fairgrounds. By the mid-twentieth century they had staked out a place in venues previously closed to them, including the livestock show ring, the athletic field, and the boardroom. Through a wealth of fascinating stories and colourful detail, Cultivating Communities adds a new dimension to the social and cultural history of rural women, placing their activities at the centre of the agricultural fair.
