The Role of Smallholder Farms in Food and Nutrition Security
This open access book discusses the current role of smallholders in connection with food security and poverty reduction in developing countries. It addresses the opportunities they enjoy, and the constraints they face, by analysing the availability, access to and utilization of production factors. Due to the relevance of smallholder farms, enhancing their production capacities and economic and social resilience could produce positive impacts on food security and nutrition at a number of levels. In addition to the role of small farmers as food suppliers, the book considers their role as consumers and their level of nutrition security. It investigates the link between agriculture and nutrition in order to better understand how agriculture affects human health and dietary patterns. Given the importance of smallholdings, strategies to increase their productivity are essential to improving food and nutrition security, as well as food diversity.
Competition and Efficiency in International Food Supply Chains
Why have food crises seemingly become more frequent in recent years, compared to the last few decades? This book examines an array of different issues and distortions that are causing food supply chain dysfunction in many countries, particularly for staple non-perishable foods such as grains, oilseeds, pulses and sugar. It outlines the underlying changes that are currently occurring, which will have an influence on the direction of future food supply chains, and provides some solutions to current food security problems. Based on an analysis of total regulation in the 1950s-60s through to deregulation during the 1980-90s, as well as post-deregulation, it focuses on liberal trade and deregulat...

Kontrollräume und Raumkontrolle
Wie verändern sich Leitstellen, Notrufzentralen und Schaltwarten, jene hochgradig diversen Räume, die für das reibungslose Funktionieren von Infrastrukturen wie Strom, Verkehr oder Notfallhilfe verantwortlich sind? David Joshua Schröder geht dieser Frage nach, indem er sich der neuen räumlichen Gestalt dieser Orte soziologisch zuwendet. Ihren Wandel nimmt er nicht nur zum Anlass, um neue Arbeitsweisen herauszuarbeiten, sondern er tastet sich auch an die Frage heran, was sich aus diesen Veränderungen für die heutige Raumkontrolle in der refigurierten Moderne schließen lässt. Dabei zeigt er auf, dass Raum und Digitalisierung hier auf eine Weise verbunden sind, die keinesfalls zu einer allmählichen Auflösung dieser Orte führt.
DAVID'S SLING
The CIA and its top agent, Dave McClure, have their hands perilously full. Franz Altmann, a vicious killer and a member of the German terror group Red Storm Movement, has slipped unseen into America. He intends to bring the U.S., the world’s epicenter of capitalism and finance, to its knees in a horrendous attack. If that isn’t enough, Vassily Krasnoff, a Russian believed fatally wounded in the Alaskan wilderness by McClure’s rifle shot, didn’t die as intelligence indicated. Krasnoff has emerged from a coma, and now he wants revenge for the death of his brother, Leonide. Someone Dave McClure loves dearly must die—in the most gruesome fashion imaginable—if McClure doesn’t find and kill Krasnoff first.
