Описание: This book brings together agricultural ethics scholars from the US, Japan and Taiwan to discuss crucial issues in agricultural ethics and sustainability ethics in comparative context. Agricultural ethics and sustainability ethics are wide-ranging and closely linked to environmental ethics, bioethics, virtue ethics, animal welfare, soil conservation, not to mention rural traditions and lifestyles. Six of the chapters cover historical traditions and values in Europe, the US and East Asia. Four of the chapters cover the role of virtue ethics in the analysis of agrarian and environmental ethics, agricultural biotechnology, food ethics, and alternative agriculture, respectively. Finally, two of the chapters cover field efforts of agricultural ethics involving preserving agricultural heritage and building consensus for sustainable farming, respectively. Although the papers are divided into three groups, their contents are interconnected and mutually informative.

Описание: Today's American farmers struggle constantly with a financial crisis. News reports chronicle the dreary events— foreclosures, protests, governmental debates, distress sales. There is great pressure on the U.S. government to ease the current farm financial situation, but there is opposing pressure to wean the farm sector from government support, to move agriculture toward a market-oriented economy, and above all, to reduce government outlays. Because the financial crisis permeates the agricultural community, critical choices must be made regarding the role of government in the farm sector, and alternate policies must be conceived. A Perspective on U.S. Farm Problems and Agricultural Policy provides a framework for evaluating national policy alternatives and attempts to improve our understanding of the nature of the farm sector and its problems. The discussion covers important issues such as farm size, the process of dynamic adjustment to changing technology, and financial disruptions associated with periodic land booms and busts. The issues are presented in historical perspective and in relation to past agricultural policies. The authors move to more specific examination of the current financial crisis by looking at various sizes and types of midwest farms. They establish different categories of financial stress in the context of both historical data for the national farm sector and more recent data on individual farms, drawing conclusions about the primary determinants of financial stress and the manner in which individuals are adjusting to it.
