Finance for Food : towards new agricultural and rural finance, 2014.

The growing private investment in African agriculture proves that land and water are valuable assets, especially in these times of

high commodity prices. In view of the challenges, this trend is welcome in spite of some undesirable cases of land grabbing.

Agriculture and rural infrastructure had been suffering over years from under-investment, especially in Africa, and cannot be

developed with public funds alone. (Preface)

Rakopoulos, Theodoro. From clans to co-ops : confiscated Mafia land in Sicily, 2018.

From Clans to Co-ops explores the social, political, and economic relations that enable the constitution of cooperatives operating on

land confiscated from mafiosi in Sicily, a project that the state hails as arguably the greatest symbolic victory over the mafia in

Italian history. RakopoulosТs ethnographic focus is on access to resources, divisions of labor, ideologies of community and food, and

the material changes that cooperatives bring to peopleТs lives in terms of kinship, work and land management. The book contributes

to broader debates about cooperativism, how labor might be salvaged from market fundamentalism, and to emergent discourses

about the human economy. (berghahnbooks.com)

scarce. This book provides data on the actual movement and accumulation of radioactivity in the ecological system – for example,

whether mountain debris can cause secondary contamination, under what conditions plants accumulate radioactive cesium in their

edible parts, and how radioactivity is transferred from hay to milk. (springer.com)

Contextualizing disaster, 2016.

Contextualizing Disaster offers a comparative analysis of six recent highly visible disasters and several slow-burning, hidden, crises

that include typhoons, tsunamis, earthquakes, chemical spills and the unfolding consequences of rising seas and climate change. The

book argues that, while disasters are increasingly represented by the media as unique, exceptional, newsworthy events, it is a

mistake to think of disasters as isolated or discrete occurrences.(amazon.com)

Reay, Dave. Climate-smart food, 2019.

Climate change poses a severe and growing threat to food security around the world. Our food is also a major driver of climate

change. Here we provide an overview of these intertwined global challenges and the current state of progress (or lack thereof) in

addressing them. We introduce the concept of climate-smart food, whereby climate resilience and productivity are increased while

greenhouse gas emissions are simultaneously reduced. Finally, we map out the specific foods to be explored in-depth, from farm,

vineyard or ocean to Scottish dinner table. (springer.com)
