Black American Money 2
ISBN: 9781544111711 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 200 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. One of the greatest challenges for the African American community is a severe lack of power. Like caged animals in the zoo, millions of black people in America and across the world often feel that our lives are controlled by other people or that opportunities only enter our lives when they are created by our oppressors. This debilitating mindset can lead to hopelessness, depression and decision-making that is driven by fear rather than desire. Instead of believing that we possess the ability to improve our lives, we simply wait and hope that White Americans will one day have a change of...

The Philippines: The Political Economy of Growth and Impoverishment in the Marcos Era
ISBN: 9780333558546 / Angielski / Twarda / 1993 / 405 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book analyzes the Philippine economy from the 1960s to the 1980s. During this period, the benefits of economic growth conspicuously failed to 'trickle down'. Despite rising per capita income, broad sectors of the Filipino population experienced deepening poverty. Tracing this outcome to the country's economic and political structure, Professor Boyce focuses upon three central elements of the government's development strategy: the 'green revolution' in rice agriculture; the primacy accorded to export agriculture and forestry; and massive external borrowing.

Ecosystem Management: Applications for Sustainable Forest and Wildlife Resources
ISBN: 9780300078589 / Angielski / Miękka / 1999 / 384 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Until recently, natural resource management of such commodities as timber and wildlife was driven largely by the desire to exploit these resources. During the past three decades, however, ecologists have warned that this approach to natural resource management could have unforeseen consequences because it ignored how ecosystems function within the landscape. Federal agencies that oversee forest and wildlife resources have begun to implement different schemes of ecosystem management, schemes that vary enormously among agencies. Contributors to this volume--leading experts who are agency...

The Jackson Elk Herd: Intensive Wildlife Management in North America
ISBN: 9780521110204 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 324 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The management of the elk population at Jackson Hole, Wyoming, has been the subject of a long-standing controversy among wildlife biologists, with critics of the winter feeding program predicting that such intervention would result in overpopulation, habitat destruction, disease and chaos. After more than 75 years in which hay has been provided during the winter months in most years, the elk population is flourishing and is for good measure one of the most intensively studied and managed wildlife populations in North America. This detailed study of migration, population dynamics, harvesting...

The Lasting Influence of the War on Postwar British Film
ISBN: 9780230116894 / Angielski / Twarda / 2012 / 212 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Many of the most celebrated British films of the immediate post-war period (1945-55) seem to be occupied with "getting on" with life and offering distraction for postwar audiences. It is the time of the celebrated Ealing comedies, Hue and Cry (1946) and Kind Hearts and Coronets (1949), Dickens adaptations, and the most ambitious projects of the Archers. While the war itself is rarely mentioned in these films, the war and the conditions of postwar society lie at the heart of understanding them. While various studies have focused on lesser known realist films, few consider how deeply and...

The Political Economy of the Environment
ISBN: 9781843761082 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 160 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Economic activities that degrade the environment do not simply pit humans against nature. They also pit some humans against others. Some benefit from these activities; others bear net costs from pollution and resource depletion. In this analysis, James K. Boyce examines the dynamics of environmental degradation in terms of the balances of power between the winners and the losers. He provides evidence that inequalities of power and wealth affect not only the distribution of environmental costs, but also their overall magnitude: greater inequalities result in more environmental degradation....

Elephants and man may live for nearly one hundred years, while most shrews die before they are three months old.
