The changing nature of oceanic plastics litter
Concerns about the accumulation of partially degraded plastics in the oceans have led observers to conclude that there is no solution to this problem. Yet solutions already exist and are leading to a change and reduction of the type and degradability of commercial detritus. Much of the remaining residues arise from fishing activities.

Who Has Failed Africa
Numerous writers have suggested that International Monetary Fund (IMF) Structural Adjustment Programs in Africa have not only damaged growth prospects for many countries, but have further worsened an already badly skewed income distribution. The main purpose of this paper is to argue that of all the feasible alternatives for solving Africa's current economic problems, IMF Programs are the most promising. First, the paper examines the main reasons…

Moreover, this affective significance most often surrounds images of the group's distinctive past, thus giving a historical dimension to the concept of primordialism. The second approach view…

Plastics packaging and coastal pollution
Studies of isolated stretches of shore line have indicated that pollution due to plastic packaging is a result of the deposition of sea‐borne waste. The waste is primarily a by‐product of international commerce and not, as is commonly assumed, due to the irresponsibility of the casual visitor. Indications are that the common packaging plastics vary markedly in their resistance to environmental breakdown. Low density polyethylene which is used for…
