As one of the first sectors affected by the current phase of crisis in capital accumulation, the automobile industry has had much to learn and now has much to teach. A recognition of the great diversity of forms of adaptation introduced to face the uncertainties of the market, lead to the formation of GERPISA and its international programme of research on the emergence of new industrial models. This book, a product of that research, is a valuable and timely insight into the innovations and adjustments of some of the major vehicular manufacturers and through them into the future of industry as a whole.
There is growing consensus about the threat of global warming, that our planet will continue to warm up as the concentration of greenhouse gases increases in the future. The agriculture sector is particularly vulnerable to the negative impacts of climate change. This book shows how agricultural investments will impact global wheat and rice markets under climate change in the long term. The projection results show that the volatility of international wheat and rice prices will increase in the next two decades, due to climate change impacts. Simulation studies show that constant increases in agricultural investments in major producing countries will help stabilise international wheat and rice prices. In this book, a simulation study examines the role of agricultural investment growth in decreasing food loss, and finds that agricultural investments play a crucial role in alleviating climate change risks in the global wheat and rice markets.
