Global Food Politics and Approaches to Sustainable Consumption: Emerging Research and Opportunities
Food production and consumption processes are largely governed via control mechanisms that affect food accessibility and environmental efficiency. Food resource marginalization, inequality, and deleterious consumption urgently require new governance and developmental systems that will provide food security and create consumption patterns that protect the natural environment and food resources. Global Food Politics and Approaches to Sustainable Consumption: Emerging Research and Opportunities is an essential reference source that discusses the challenges and solutions of food security and consumption control. Food politics can be linked to persistent challenges of inequitable access, food resource inefficiency, and control and consumption, which form part of the local development realities that can address global sustainable development. While highlighting topics such as rural agriculture, capitalism, and food chain management, this publication is ideally designed for policymakers, sustainable developers, politicians, ecologists, environmentalists, corporate executives, farmers, and academicians seeking current research on the policies and modalities of food efficiency and equality.
Post-Disaster Governance in Southeast Asia
This book aims to provide insight into how Southeast Asian countries have responded to disasters, recovered, and rebuilt. It investigates emergency response and disaster recovery cases at national levels and from regional perspectives. Recovery from great disasters poses great challenges to affected countries in terms of organization, financing, and opportunities for post-disaster betterment. Importantly, disasters are critical moments in which to achieve disaster risk reduction, especially in the context of climate change and Sustainable Development Goals. Insights from these cases can help other countries better prepare for response and recovery before the next disaster strikes. While the ...
Research Anthology on Environmental and Societal Impacts of Climate Change
Climate change is an issue that has been generating a significant amount of discussion, research, and debate in recent years. Climate change continues to evolve at a rapid rate and continues to have a wide array of effects on everything from temperature to plant life. Beyond the negative environmental impacts, climate change is also proving to be a detriment to society with increasingly violent natural disasters and human health effects. It is essential to stay up to date on the latest in emerging research within this field as it continues to develop. The Research Anthology on Environmental and Societal Impacts of Climate Change discusses the varied effects of climate change throughout all a...
Climate Change-Resilient Agriculture and Agroforestry
This book collects wide-ranging contributions such as case studies, reviews, reports on technological developments, outputs of research/studies, and examples of successful projects, presenting current knowledge and raising awareness to help the agriculture and forestry sectors find solutions for mitigating climate variability and adapting to change. It brings the topic of ecosystem services closer to education and learning, as targeted by the Framework Convention on Climate Change and the Paris Agreement, the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and the EU Biodiversity Strategy to 2020. Climate change and its impacts on agriculture and agroforestry have been observed across the world during the last 50 years. Increasing temperatures, droughts, biotic stresses and the impacts of extreme events have continuously decreased agroforestry systems’ resilience to the effects of climate change. As such, there is a need to adapt farming and agroforestry systems so as to make them better able to handle ever-changing climate conditions, and to preserve habitats and ecosystems services.

Asek-Asek Joss
Asek asek joss! Jargon ini begitu populer digunakan oleh kami – peserta Program Pertukaran Pemuda Indonesia Kanada (PPIK) 2013-2014 – semenjak awal program ini dimulai. Jargon yang berasal dari salah satu program TV ini, menjadi begitu renyah dan sebagai penyatu semangat kami di tengah kelelahan persiapan program. Jargon ini kemudian kami pilih menjadi judul karya antologi karya ini dengan tujuan salah-satunya untuk terus mengingatkan kami akan keceriaan bersama dahulu. Namun ini ga sekedar asek dan membantu kami bernostalgia. Kami juga memikirkan filosofinya, yakni; asek berarti fun, bikin semua orang fun, dan joss berarti semangat! Fun bikin orang semangat dan semangat bikin orang fun, muda itu fun dan semangat!
Membangun di Atas Puing Integritas
UI selama Sejarah hidupnya adalah mercusuar kemandirian moral yang tegar berdiri dalam kegelapan masa apa pun, diterjang angin topan perlawanan sedahsyat apa pun. Karena UI diisi oleh keberanian moral membangun masyarakat yang demokratis dan ia mampu bersaing secara global. Oleh karena itu, marilah kita berpegang teguh pada prinsip moral sivitas akademika kita, bahwa almamater kita "Universitas Indonesia is not for sale!" (Emil Salim) Salah satu kekuatan utama rektor UI Prof. Dr. Gumilar Somantri adalah uang. Berbeda dengan para rektor sebelumnya. Gumilar berposisi sebagai pemimpin UI yang memiliki kendali atas uang triliunan rupiah.

Verguisd en vergeten (3 vols.)
De legendarische en mysterieuze Tan Malaka verscheen, na twintig jaar verbanning en ondergrondse actie, kort na de Proclamatie van de Indonesische onafhankelijkheid op 17 augustus 1945 weer in de openbaarheid. Hij bood een radicaal alternatief voor de gematigde koers van Soekarno en Hatta, het leidersduo van de Republik Indonesia, maar hij dolf het onderspit en werd in maart 1946 gevangengezet. Pas in september 1948 kwam hij vrij. Hij richtte toen de Partai Murba op, die de plaats wilde innemen van de in de Madioen-opstand neergeslagen communistische partij. Na de Nederlandse militaire actie van december 1948 volgde hij het guerrillaverzet; in februari 1949 werd hij doodgeschoten bij een int...
