by Connie IslaUna de las influencers veganas argentinas de mayor crecimiento cuenta su viaje profundamente personal, un recorrido que va desde su temprana pasión por distintas formas de expresión artística hasta su experiencia de autodescubrimiento y su entrega completa a la causa feminista y a la lucha por un estilo de vida sustentable. Hola. Soy Connie, y quiero agradecerte que tengas mi libro en tus manos. Vengo a proponerte que me acompañes en un viaje, un viaje personal y revelador. Un recorrido por algunas cosas que hice en mi vida, gracias a las cuales me caí, me levanté, reflexioné, aprendí, cambié y entendí que está en nuestras manos hacer de este un mundo mejor. Y que para eso primero es necesario estar dispuestos a conocer, a cuestionarnos y saber algunas cosas que a veces preferiríamos no saber: de dónde viene eso que comemos, quién hizo las prendas con las que nos vestimos, cuánto tarda en degradarse esa botella de plástico que usamos y desechamos, y por qué a veces miramos para otro lado cuando se nos presenta esa verdad incómoda. Espero que acá encuentres no sólo respuestas, sino también preguntas, así como también herramientas para ayudarte a transitar este camino largo pero poderoso. Porque la información es poder, y tenemos el poder de cambiar el mundo. Sí, vos, una sola persona, aunque te cueste creerlo. Cada pequeña acción cuenta. Necesitamos acercarnos un poco más. Tener más compasión. Más conciencia. Más empatía. Más amor. Más luz, por favor.
Why Nations Fail to Feed the Poor: The Politics of Food Security in Bangladesh
by Mohammad Mozahidul IslamThis book examines the political and economic dimensions of food security in Bangladesh and assesses the role of the state in meeting the challenges of food security. The key concern, which is at the heart of this study, is to explore how Bangladesh responds, when its people go hungry. There are no detailed empirical studies that examine the Bangladesh’s role by providing an historical cum political analysis; however conventional approaches are primarily concerned with a partial diagnosis of the economic or nutritional problems of food security. The book then provides a detailed picture of the missing dimensions of state that include the strength of institutions, the scope of state functions, and other important attributes. In doing so, it uses the concept of neo-patrimonialism to explore the political system of Bangladesh. This book explicates the various impediments to food security, ranging from the process of policy formulation to their implementation mechanisms. It unpacks the structural weaknesses of the Bangladesh's institutional capacity in promoting food security, and, in the process, argues that the root cause of food insecurity is deeply embedded in the nature of the government itself, and the political institutions that link the state and society.
Confronting the Blue Revolution
by Saidul IslamLike the Green Revolution of the 1960s, a "Blue Revolution" has taken place in global aquaculture. Geared towards quenching the appetite of privileged consumers in the global North, it has come at a high price for the South: ecological devastation, displacement of rural subsistence farmers, and labour exploitation. The uncomfortable truth is that food security for affluent consumers depends on a foundation of social and ecological devastation in the producing countries.In Confronting the Blue Revolution, Md Saidul Islam uses the shrimp farming industry in Bangladesh and across the global South to show the social and environmental impact of industrialized aquaculture. The book pushes us to reconsider our attitudes to consumption patterns in the developed world, neoliberal environmental governance, and the question of sustainability.
