Описание: This book brings together the key conclusions and insights from the duALIne project, presenting state-of-the-art research in food sustainability and identifying priority areas for further study. It will provide a valuable resource for researchers, decision-makers and stakeholders in the food industry.
Описание: This volume identifies the interactions that must take place for the system to regularly adjust to national and international stakeholders’ evolving needs, to inspire stakeholders' confidence and to keep them well informed about their responsibilities. It focuses on the transparency of communication to consumers and food business operators and their integration into the food control system.
The FAO/WHO Food Control System Assessment Tool provides a harmonized, objective and consensual basis for analysing the performance of a national food control system, with the aim of protecting the health of consumers and ensuring fair practices in the food trade. It seeks to support countries in identifying and prioritizing areas of improvement and planning activities to reach expected outcomes and monitor progress. The Tool is based on Codex principles and Guidelines for National Food Control Systems as well as other relevant Codex guidance.
Описание: This volume focuses on the processes and outputs of the control activities of a national food control system. It reviews the control functions exercised by competent authorities over food business operators - at domestic and import or export level - to guarantee food safety and quality along the food chain as well as fair trade practices. It also maps out control functions and mechanisms at the food supply level to identify, monitor, predict and handle food safety hazards and emerging risks, and deal with food emergencies.

Описание: This volume reviews the features necessary for the system to build scientific soundness, incorporate risk analysis principles and keep abreast of new scientific developments and innovations to improve. It explores how competent authorities anchor their decisions in relevant scientific and technical information, reviews the robustness of information-collection processes as a foundation for risk analysis, and assesses the use made of this risk analysis framework to handle food safety risks.

Описание: This volume maps out the fundamental elements that the system needs in order to operate. These range from the policy and legal foundations of food control systems to the financial resources, infrastructure and analytical resources needed to support official controls over food. It also analyses issues related to food control personnel. It looks closely at the relationship between strategic planning and available resources, and ways of adjusting strategies and policy choices to reflect resource constraints.

Описание: This introductory volume presents the main scope and objectives of the Tool. It takes the reader through its structure (dimensions, sub-dimensions, competencies and assessment criteria) and presents the assessment approach, from the ratings to the descriptive analysis supporting the allocation of scores. The volume also contains a glossary and a list of the Codex documents referenced in the Tool.

Описание: Mass starvation's causes may seem simple and immediate: crop failure, poverty, outbreaks of violence, and poor governance. But famines are complex, and scholars cannot fully understand what causes them unless they look at their numerous social and environmental precursors over long arcs of history, and over long distances.Famine in the Remaking examines the relationship between the reorganisation of food systems and large-scale food crises through a comparative historical analysis of three famines: Hawaii in the 1820s, Madagascar in the 1920s, and Cambodia in the 1970s. This examination identifies the structural transformations - that is, changes to the relationships between producers and consumers - that make food systems more vulnerable to failure. Moving beyond the economic and political explanations for food crisis that have dominated the literature, Stian Rice emphasises important socioecological interactions, developing a framework for crisis evolution that identifies two distinct temporal phases and five different types of causal mechanisms involved in food systems failure. His framework contributes to current work in famine prevention and, animated by a commitment to social justice, offers the potential for early intervention in emerging food crises.

Описание:
At a particularly urgent world-historical moment, this volume brings together some of the leading researchers of social movements and global social change and other emerging scholars and practitioners to advance new thinking about social movements and global transformation. Social movements around the world today are responding to crisis by defying both political and epistemological borders, offering alternatives to the global capitalist order that are imperceptible through the modernist lens. Informed by a world-historical perspective, contributors explain today's struggles as building upon the experiences of the past while also coming together globally in ways that are inspiring innovation and consolidating new thinking about what a fundamentally different, more equitable, just, and sustainable world order might look like.
This collection offers new insights into contemporary movements for global justice, challenging readers to appreciate how modernist thinking both colors our own observations and complicates the work of activists seeking to resolve inequities and contradictions that are deeply embedded in Western cultural traditions and institutions. Contributors consider today's movements in the longue dur e--that is, they ask how Occupy Wall Street, the Arab Spring, and other contemporary struggles for liberation reflect, build upon, or diverge from anti-colonial and other emancipatory struggles of the past. Critical to this volume is its exploration of how divisions over gender equity and diversity of national cultures and class have impacted what are increasingly intersectional global movements. The contributions of feminist and indigenous movements come to the fore in this collective exploration of what the movements of yesterday and today can contribute to our ongoing effort to understand the dynamics of global transformation in order to help advance a more equitable, just, and ecologically sustainable world.
