Dust Bowls of Empire: Imperialism, Environmental Politics, and the Injustice of "Green" Capitalism (Yale Agrarian Studies Series) Hannah Holleman Yale University Press, Yale Agrarian Studies Series, 1, 2018

<DIV>A profound reinterpretation of both the Dust Bowl on the U.S. southern plains and its relevance for today The 1930s witnessed a harrowing social and ecological disaster, defined by the severe nexus of drought, erosion, and economic depression that ravaged the U.S. southern plains. Known as the Dust Bowl, this crisis has become a major referent of the climate change era, and has long served as a warning of the dire consequences of unchecked environmental despoliation. Through innovative research and a fresh theoretical lens, Hannah Holleman reexamines the global socioecological and economic forces of settler colonialism and imperialism precipitating this disaster, explaining critical antecedents to the acceleration of ecological degradation in our time. Holleman draws lessons from this period that point a way forward for environmental politics as we confront the growing global crises of climate change, freshwater scarcity, extreme energy, and soil degradation.</DIV>

The Expected Benefits Of Trade Liberalization For World Income And Development: Opening The Black Box Of Global Trade Modeling (food Policy Review 8) Antoine Bou'et International Food Policy Research Institute, Food policy review -- 9, Washington, DC, District of Columbia, 2008

Development experts often promote trade liberalization as a path to economic development and poverty alleviation. This study examines the trade models used to support such claims. The author surveys the methodologies used to assess trade liberalization’s impact and examines the extent to which assessments of impact diverge. Through careful analysis of models and their results, the author provides a more nuanced assessment of the liberalization’s possible benefits

Institutions As Conscious Food Consumers : Leveraging Purchasing Power to Drive Systems Change Goger, Annelies; Thottathil, Sapna E Academic Press, an imprint of Elsevier, Elsevier Ltd., London, United Kingdom, 2019

Institutions like schools, hospitals, and universities are not well known for having quality, healthy food. In fact, institutional food often embodies many of the worst traits of our industrialized food system, with long supply chains that are rife with environmental and social problems and growing market concentration in many stages of food production and distribution. Recently, however, non-profit organizations, government agencies, university research institutes, and activists have partnered with institutions to experiment with a wide range of more ethical and sustainable models for food purchasing, also known as values-based procurement. Institutions as Conscious Food Consumers brings together in-depth case studies from several of promising models of institutional food purchasing that aim to be more sustainable, healthy, equitable, and local. With chapters written by a diverse set of authors, including leaders in the food movement and policy researchers, this book: <ul> <li>Documents growing interest among non-profit organizations and activists in institutional food interventions through case studies and first-hand experiences; </li> <li>Highlights emerging evidence about how these new procurement models affect agro-food supply chains; and</li> <li>Examines the role of policy and regional or geographic identity in promoting food systems change. </li> </ul> Institutions as Conscious Food Consumers makes the case that institutions can use their budgets to change the food system for the better, although significant challenges remain. It is a must read for food systems practitioners, food chain researchers, and foodservice professionals interested in values-based procurement.

Beginning to End Hunger: Food and the Environment in Belo Horizonte, Brazil, and Beyond (Fletcher Jones Foundation) Chappell, M. Jahi University of California Press, University of California Press, Oakland, California, 2018

Introduction : food and famine futures, past and present -- Food security, food sovereignty, and beginning to end hunger -- Belo Horizonte : all five A's on the horizon -- Multiple streams and the evolution of the Secretariat of Food and Nutritional Security -- Farm, farmer, and forest : SMASAN and the environment -- Conclusions : Belo Horizonte and beyond.;"Beginning to End Hunger presents the story of Belo Horizonte, home to 2.5 million people and the site of one of the world's most successful city food security programs. Since its Municipal Secretariat of Food and Nutritional Security was founded in 1993, malnutrition in Belo Horizonte has declined dramatically, leading it to serve as an inspiration for Brazil's renowned Zero Hunger programs. The Municipal Secretariat's work with local family farmers also offers a glimpse of how food security, rural livelihoods, and healthy ecosystems can be supported together. While inevitably imperfect, Belo Horizonte offers a vision of the path away from food system dysfunction, unsustainability, and hunger. This case study by M. Jahi Chappell shows the vital importance of holistic approaches to food security, offers ideas on how to design successful policies to end hunger, and lays out strategies for making policy change happen. With these tools, we can take the next steps toward achieving similar reductions in hunger and food insecurity elsewhere in the developed and developing worlds."--Provided by publisher.

Targeting of Transfers in Developing Countries: Review of Lessons and Experience (World Bank Regional and Sectoral Studies) David Coady; Margaret E Grosh; John Hoddinott; World Bank.; International Food Policy Research Institute World Bank Publications, Independent Publishers Group, Washington, DC, 2004

Drawing on a database of more than one hundred anti-poverty interventions in 47 countries, 'Targeting of Transfers in Developing Countries' provides a general review of experiences with methods used to target interventions in transition and developing countries. Written for policymakers and program managers in developing countries, in donor agencies, and in NGOs who have responsibility for designing interventions that reach the poor, it conveys what targeting options are available, what results can be expected as well as information that will assist in choosing among them and in their implementation. Key messages are: - While targeting 'works' - the median program transfers 25 percent more to the poor than would a universal allocation - targeting performance around the world is highly variable. - Means testing, geographic targeting, and self-selection based on a work requirement are the most robustly progressive methods. Proxy means testing, community-based selection of individuals and demographic targeting to children show good results on average, but with considerable variation. - Demographic targeting to the elderly, community bidding, and self-selection based on consumption show limited potential for good targeting. - There is no single preferred method for all types of programs or all country contexts. Successful targeting depends critically on how a method is implemented. The CD-ROM includes the database of interventions, an annotated bibliography (PDF) and Spanish and Russian translations of the book (PDFs).

2019 global food policy report International Food Policy Research Institute International Food Policy Research Institute, Washington, DC, 2019

ISBN: 978-0-89629-350-2 DOI: https://doi.org/10.2499/9780896293502 IFPRI’s flagship report reviews the major food policy issues, developments, and decisions of 2018, and considers challenges and opportunities for 2019 at the global and regional levels. This year’s Global Food Policy Report highlights the urgency of rural revitalization to address a growing crisis in rural areas. Rural people around the world continue to struggle with food insecurity, persistent poverty and inequality, and environmental degradation. Policies, institutions, and investments that take advantage of new opportunities and technologies, increase access to basic services, create more and better rural jobs, foster gender equality, and restore the environment can make rural areas vibrant and healthy places to live and work—a benefit for all. Drawing on recent findings, IFPRI researchers and other distinguished food policy experts consider critical aspects of rural revitalization: • How can a rurbanomics approach that strengthens rural–urban linkages—from farms to small towns to megacities—promote rural revitalization? • Can high rates of rural poverty, malnutrition, and hunger be reduced fast enough to meet the Sustainable Development Goals and revitalize rural areas? • How can increasing rural connectivity through roads and information technologies in Africa create more and better jobs, especially in the nonfarm sector, for vital rural communities? How can programs and policies designed to reach, benefit, and empower women and girls contribute not only to greater gender equity but also to rural revitalization for all? What incentives can help rural areas restore and improve the natural environment for better rural living conditions, greater sustainability, and a healthier planet? • Can solar power provide the access to electricity that Africa’s rural communities need to foster growth and livelihood opportunities? • What institutions can ensure effective and accountable governance that will increase the voice of the rural poor and marginalized communities in shaping rural revitalization? What can developing countries learn from Europe’s extensive experience with rural revitalization for stronger rural economies and a better environment? • What major trends and events affected food security and nutrition across the globe in 2018 and what trends will be important to watch in 2019? • The 2019 Global Food Policy Report also presents data tables for several key food policy indicators, including country-level data on agricultural spending and research investment, productivity in agriculture, and projections for future agricultural production and consumption. In addition, the report includes illustrative figures, tables, and a timeline of events affecting food security and nutrition in 2018.
