The recent financial and economic crises have exposed the European Union (EU) to an increased risk of social exclusion and poverty, which are now at the heart of its economic, employment and social agenda with explicit reference to rural and marginal areas (Europe 2020). The authors' work from the notion that rural development is not imposed from the 'outside', but depends also on endogenous factors, namely local cultural and ecological amenities, eco-system services, and economic links with urban...

Innovation and Technological Catch-Up: The Changing Geography of Wine Production
ISBN: 9781848449947 / Angielski / Twarda / 232 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Since the beginning of the 1990s, the supremacy of 'Old World' countries (France and Italy) in the international wine market has been challenged by new players, such as Australia, Argentina, Chile and South Africa, which are recording stunning performances in terms both of export volume and value. This book demonstrates that such a spectacular example of catch-up goes beyond simply copying new technologies; it entails creative adaptation and innovation, and introduces a new growth trajectory in which consistent investments in research and science play a key role.

Agriculture in the New Global Economy
ISBN: 9781843766780 / Angielski / Twarda / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Agriculture in the New Global Economy examines the extent to which the political economy of the food chain is being transformed by globalisation. This assessment is based upon four paradigms: the traditional subsidy-based dependent paradigm; the neo-liberal competitive paradigm; the multifunctional paradigm that emphasises the contribution of farming to other public goods such as the environment; and an emergent globalisation paradigm. The discussion is developed through reference to empirical evidence from the United States and Canada, the EU, Australia, Japan and the Global South. The...

Agricultural Management Economics: Activity Analysis and Decision Making
ISBN: 9780851987682 / Angielski / Miękka / 368 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book on agricultural management and decision making differs from other texts which tend to describe production economics followed by the presentation of analytical approaches.

Analytical tools developed in the book involve the construction of spreadsheet models, and readers are able to construct their own PC spreadsheets from the book's examples and case studies. Economic principles are... This book on agricultural management and decision making differs from other texts which tend to describe production economics followed by the presenta...

The scientific and technological advances of the past 50 years have led to new ways to solve many water-related conflicts, often with tools that seemed...
