Book Description
Comme l'a noté Patrick Moore, co-fondateur de Greenpeace au moment de la sortie de ce livre aux Etats-Unis, " le mouvement écologique a perdu son objectivité, son éthique et son humanité. Les douleurs et les souffrances qu'il inflige aux populations des pays en voie de développement sont devenues intolérables ". En cet essai lucide et courageux, Paul Driessen explique l'histoire et les tactiques des groupes radicaux qui sont au cœur de l'écologisme contemporain. Il montre comment des peurs sont disséminées dans les pays riches, et à quelles fins. Il montre aussi et surtout l'envers du décor : pendant qu'ici certains s'agitent et parlent d'apocalypse, dans les contrées pauvres du monde, des êtres humains subissent les conséquences en termes de maladies, de famines et de morts prématurées. Certaines idées, dit Driessen, pourraient, si on les examine en France ou en Amérique du Nord, sembler n'être que des idées : il importe de dire qu'à cinq ou six mille kilomètres de là, ces idées tuent et laissent derrière elles des millions de cadavres.

Book Description
Entangled Territorialities offers vivid ethnographic examples of how Indigenous lands in Australia and Canada are tangled with governments, industries, and mainstream society. Most of the entangled lands to which Indigenous peoples are connected have been physically transformed and their ecological balance destroyed. Each chapter in this volume refers to specific circumstances in which Indigenous peoples have become intertwined with non-Aboriginal institutions and projects including the construction of hydroelectric dams and open mining pits. Long after the agents of resource extraction have abandoned these lands to their fate, Indigenous peoples will continue to claim ancestral ties and responsibilities that cannot be understood by agents of capitalism. The editors and contributors to this volume develop an anthropology of entanglement to further examine the larger debates about the vexed relationships between settlers and indigenous peoples over the meaning, knowledge, and management of traditionally-owned lands.

Book Description
L'an dernier, dans notre livre « Crise du système impérialiste mondial ― La décomposition finale de "l'industrie de bazar" et la naissance d'un nouvel ordre impérialiste mondial », nous avions souligné le caractère structurel de la crise actuelle, ainsi que le différentiel croissant entre l'impérialisme chinois et ses plus puissants concurrents. Nous avions également souligné que les résultats du plan de relance chinois contrasteraient nettement avec ceux de ses concurrents. Nous avions enfin souligné l'inéluctabilité de l'aggravation du déficit des Etats bourgeois qui seraient en définitive forcés de faire retomber le poids de la crise sur les masses exploitées au moyens de PAS (qualifiés de "plans de rigueur"), visant à la destruction des chaînes dorées de l'esclavage salarié. Les derniers mois ont confirmé toutes ces anticipations, comme l'illustre ce livre qui fait le point sur la rapide montée en puissance de l'impérialisme chinois et ses implications actuelles et futures.

Book Description
For pathways to be truly sustainable and advance gender equality and the rights and capabilities of women and girls, those whose lives and well-being are at stake must be involved in leading the way. Gender Equality and Sustainable Development calls for policies, investments and initiatives in sustainable development that recognize women’s knowledge, agency and decision-making as fundamental. Four key sets of issues - work and industrial production; population and reproduction; food and agriculture, and water, sanitation and energy provide focal lenses through which these challenges are considered. Perspectives from new feminist political ecology and economy are integrated, alongside issues of rights, relations and power. The book untangles the complex interactions between different dimensions of gender relations and of sustainability, and explores how policy and activism can build synergies between them. Finally, this book demonstrates how plural pathways are possible; underpinned by different narratives about gender and sustainability, and how the choices between these are ultimately political. This timely book will be of great interest to students, scholars, practitioners and policy makers working on gender, sustainable development, development studies and ecological economics.

Book Description
Does the creation of artificial reefs benefit subtidal benthic invertebrates? Is the use of organic farming instead of conventional farming beneficial to bat conservation? Does installing wildlife warning reflectors along roads benefit mammal conservation? Does the installation of exclusion and/or escape devices on fishing nets benefit marine and freshwater mammal conservation? What Works in Conservation has been created to provide practitioners with answers to these and many other questions about practical conservation. This book provides an assessment of the effectiveness of 2526 conservation interventions based on summarized scientific evidence. The 2021 edition containssubstantial new material on bat conservation, terrestrial mammal conservation and marine and freshwater mammals, thus completing the evidence for all mammal species categories. Other chapters cover practical global conservation of primates, amphibians, bats, birds, forests, peatlands, subtidal benthic invertebrates, shrublands and heathlands, as well as the conservation of European farmland biodiversity and some aspects of enhancing natural pest control, enhancing soil fertility, management of captive animals and control of freshwater invasive species. It contains key results from the summarized evidence for each conservation intervention and an assessment of the effectiveness of each by international expert panels. The accompanying website www.conservationevidence.com describes each of the studies individually, and provides full references. This is the sixth author-approved edition of What Works in Conservation, which is revised on an annual basis.
