Book Synopsis Modernizing Pastures by : Maurice Lewellen Peterson
Download or read book Modernizing Pastures written by Maurice Lewellen Peterson and published by . This book was released on 1948 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Methods are presented here for modernizing Iowa pastures. The recommendations are based largely upon the results of experimental studies. These studies have shown that the returns from many pastures can be nearly doubled by liming, fertilizing, using better kinds of grasses and legumes, and by practicing good grazing management. Those interested only in recommendations for improving pastures will find them under appropriate headings. More critical readers may also wish to study the data which are the basis for many of the recommendations. These are contained in the appendix. The results reported will be of particular value to county extension directors, soil conservation workers, vocation agriculture instructors and farm managers." -- Preface, p.832

Book Synopsis Creolizing the Modern by : Anca Parvulescu
Download or read book Creolizing the Modern written by Anca Parvulescu and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2022-10-15 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How are modernity, coloniality, and interimperiality entangled? Bridging the humanities and social sciences, Anca Parvulescu and Manuela Boatcă provide innovative decolonial perspectives that aim to creolize modernity and the modern world-system. Historical Transylvania, at the intersection of the Habsburg Empire, the Ottoman Empire, Austria-Hungary, and Russia, offers the platform for their multi-level reading of the main themes in Liviu Rebreanu's 1920 novel Ion. Topics range from the question of the region's capitalist integration to antisemitism and the enslavement of Roma to multilingualism, gender relations, and religion. Creolizing the Modern develops a comparative method for engaging with areas of the world that have inherited multiple, conflicting imperial and anti-imperial histories.
Book Synopsis Resistance to Modernization in Africa by : Giordano Sivini
Download or read book Resistance to Modernization in Africa written by Giordano Sivini and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-28 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Giordano Sivini has been an international aid consultant for over twenty-five years. Here he channels a 1960s and 1970s idealistic political commitment into fieldwork and the sphere of development from the 1980s to the present. Sivini writes with both passion and cynicism about his experiences with the numerous African aid projects he has been involved with over the years.While the fathers of independence of British and French decolonization wanted to change the colonial conditions of exploitation, Sivini finds that their good intentions have been shipwrecked. Ironically, the longer Sivini served as an aid consultant, the more he found himself dismayed at the various projects that were under way or slated to begin. He perceived some of the projects as grotesque, and, almost all ineffective. The money was wasted on such ventures not because of a particular government's interest in the social effects they would have on the local populace, but because of the direct and indirect benefits the government would receive.Sivini sees international development aid as its own market: development is a commodity that takes the form of large and small projects, and is traded for loans and gifts to generate political and economic advantages for the institutional participants in the exchange. Ultimately, governmental and aid projects often stimulate resistance from the local populace as agencies upset their usual system of production by regimenting peasants to produce for the market, then appropriate the cattle of nomadic pastoralists, villagizing and resettling peasants in areas of high productivity, and exploiting laborers in large farms. This creates social disintegration, mass migration in urban informal economy, and poverty.This is a dynamic and moving analysis of foreign aid that will be of interest to students of African studies, governmental programs, rural development, and political economy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rangeland, forests and riverine landscapes of pastoral communities in Eastern Africa are increasingly under threat. Abetted by states who think that outsiders can better use the lands than the people who have lived there for centuries, outside commercial interests have displaced indigenous dwellers from pastoral territories.
