Sustainable Agriculture in the European Union

Fragility, Resiliency, and Sustainability

Tropical Deltas

A central concern of economists, policymakers and civil society in recent years has been the persistent and widespread slowdown in global productivity growth.This stands in stark contrast to the robust productivity performance and associated prosperity witnessed across advanced economies in previous decades. The productivity slowdown represents a significant concern because it underpins the tensions emerging from income and wealth inequality, an expanded corporate profit share and geopolitical friction as established and emerging economic powers vie for global market supremacy. History offers numerous examples of technological advancement coinciding with heightened economic uncertainty and political discontent, yet these were predominantly periods of accelerated productivity growth. This volume delivers a guide to the contested terrain through a diversity of perspectives spanning mainstream economic analysis to institutional and political economy frameworks. It encompasses topics ranging from the definition and measurement of productivity to the function of research and innovation, financialisation and business dynamism, management quality and workplace relations and the existential implications and opportunities presented by climate change.Understanding Productivity targets policymakers, students across multiple disciplines and readers eager to examine the productivity 'black box', to participate in an informed exploration of theory and evidence-based perspectives and to formulate their own conclusions about this critically important dimension of contemporary economic discourse and debate.

How Business Schools Can Drive Sustainable Development

Rethinking Management Education

The book focuses on the most significant man-made sea canals in the context of their strategic importance for maritime global trade. It provides insights into how these canals serve as key supply chains for industries, trade, and the provision of food and energy, emphasizing their central role in sustainability and the world's major shipping routes.Providing a comprehensive introduction to how canals have influenced society, trade, and transport while placing them in the broader context of their strategic importance for maritime global trade through sustainability, the book offers insights and practical understanding of how canals manage the needs of the planet, the viability of financial systems, and human well-being to meet human, economic, and logistical needs. The driving forces behind and examples of major canal projects are explored, and the book invites reflection on how human interventions in nature with the subsequent use of large resources affect the landscape at the intersection of future transport needs and environmental concerns to ensure economic development.Students and the public interested in canals, economic or logistical challenges between continents and nations, and in the context of global sustainability goals, will easily access necessary information on these topics, including industries such as ship operators, charterers, ports, industry, and maritime service providers, as well as international organizations and governmental institutions, for updates related to international maritime trade and the important role of canals.

The European Green Deal appears to have lost some of its impetus: political priorities have changed. Competitiveness, resilience and less bureaucracy are the topics of the day, even used as arguments to reverse achievements of the Green Deal. However, mitigating climate change, and adapting to its consequences, have lost none of their importance: failure to act now risks imposing a disproportionate burden on the young generation; greater resilience against the uncertainties of our time depends on suitable environmental conditions, the availability of workforce, and good and stable international relations. The stocktake offered by this volume establishes where we stand, and whether we can really afford to shift the focus to other priorities.

This title is also available as open access.

: Die hier vorgelegte Bestandsaufnahme nach dem Ende des Strategiezeitraums des Green Deal ist höchst aktuell, um festzustellen, wie der momentane Stand des Gesetzgebungsprogramms des Green Deal ist und ob wir es uns tatsächlich leisten können, den Fokus auf andere Prioritäten zu verlagern.
Die Beiträge beruhen überwiegend auf Vorträgen, die 2024 auf der Konferenz „Green Deal II – on track for 2030 and 2050?“ in Bremen gehalten wurden. Die Autorinnen und Autoren entwickelten diese zu vollständigen wissenschaftlichen Aufsätzen weiter. Ergänzt werden diese um einschlägige Beiträge zum Thema.

New Frontiers in Regional Science: Asian Perspectives

This book integrates diversified disciplines, research approaches, and methodologies of area studies, regional economic development, and regional science. With its huge population, China has accomplished rapid economic growth since the 1990s, although the significant income gap among regions and individuals has become a serious problem for its society. China's accession to the WTO in 2001 has had various influences on the entire food system, from agriculture to consumers, through the food manufacturing and distribution industries. The changes in the Chinese food system are considered to have also affected the agriculture and food industries in Asian countries where economic interdependence has been promoted in past decades. The author argues these issues based on interdisciplinary and multi-disciplinary methods and approaches and has successfully derived empirical and theoretical results that are rich in policy implications. The topics addressed include food security and sustainability of agriculture especially in the suburbs of big cities; poverty reduction in rural agricultural areas amidst prosperity in urban and coastal areas; regional networks and international trade of the food industry in East Asia; creation of innovative knowledge and human capital for clustering of the agro-food sector; regional development strategy; and international cooperation. The book is interesting for researchers in the field, especially for those who are concerned with the food system that has been changed dynamically in the past two decades, and it is informative, as well, for practitioners who are engaged in related business.

Clarifies the dynamism of China’s agro-food system centering on the issue of food security Integrates and advances diversified existing principles, disciplines, research approaches, and methodologies Provides materials, methods, ideas, and theories for understanding the changes in China’s agro-food sector
