No Timber Without Trees
Much of the world's tropical timber is still supplied from natural forest, but under current systems of management the forests are rapidly becoming exhausted. Unless management practices change to become genuinely sustainable, neither the forests nor the essential contribution of the timber industry to many economies will survive. Duncan Poore reviews the extent to which natural forests are already being sustainably managed for timber production, and looks at how these practices can be enlarged. He places management for timber in the wider context of tropical forest conservation and outlines a strategy for further action. Thoroughly researched and accessibly written, this book will be useful for everyone working or interested in the subject of tropical forests. Foreword by Dato Dr B.C.Y. Freezailah Originally published in 1989

Escravizados e Escravizadores da Vila de Pombal da Parahyba do Norte
Uma abordagem, que é destacada no título desse trabalho, é a escravidão de negros e índios. Do negro, a história de sua escravidão, de escravo de ganho e de aluguel, de submissão da mulher negra ao patrão, que a tinha como mulher e objeto de consumo. Escravizadas que formaram casais. Na verdade, mães de muitos filhos que integrariam uma sociedade futura na região. Jerdivan, nesse seu trabalho, vai fundo nas pesquisas de batistérios da Paróquia de Nossa Senhora do Bom Sucesso da Vila do Pinhancó, nossa querida Pombal. Nos comentários desse grande historiador, uma exposição, um verdadeiro documento da origem e ramificações familiares de um povo.

Musées histoire migrations
Depuis une vingtaine d’années, le thème des migrations est en vogue dans le milieu muséal, comme en témoigne la création de musées des migrations en Amérique du Nord, en Australie ou en Europe. Cet intérêt est stimulé par un contexte favorable aux migrations et à l’immigration en particulier. Il répond aussi à des enjeux sociaux et politiques contemporains. L’ouverture des frontières, le développement des outils de communication, des transports et des technologies ont favorisé les migrations, poussant certaines sociétés d’accueil à se redéfinir et à chercher des façons d’assurer l’intégration des nouveaux venus. Des nations nées de l’immigration ont pour...
