Death by a thousand cuts’
Around the world studies reveal alarmingly high suicide rates amongst farmers compared to the general population. With over 90% of young farmers citing mental health as the biggest hidden danger facing UK farming today, the topic has come under widespread concern. This paper explores a previously under examined aspect of farmer mental health: the emotional and moral burden of raising animals for slaughter. Survey responses from 287 UK residents w…
Lexical tonal effects in code-switching
Aims and objectives: Previous research has revealed much about the syntactic and social variables conditioning code-switching (i.e., the alternation between two or more languages in a discourse or utterance); however, little is known about the phonological effects. Our work explores this area by asking two main questions: (1) Does lexical tone affect code-switching between a tonal language and a non-tonal language? and (2) Is this effect (or lack…
A review of policy levers to reduce meat production and consumption
The Past is a Foreign Country
In which we argue that, while the historical reductionist approach to science has had its triumphs, it has been shown to be inadequate in exploring complex issues
Alternative proteins, evolving attitudes
Cooperative Evolution
Cooperative Evolution offers a fresh account of evolution consistent with Charles Darwin's own account of a cooperative, inter-connected, buzzing and ever-changing world. Told in accessible language, treating evolutionary change as a cooperative enterprise brings some surprising shifts from the traditional emphasis on the dominance of competition

Gouvernement versus Gouvernance
Il convient de noter tout d’abord que la gouvernance n'est pas le gouvernement, bien que le gouvernement, à quelque niveau que ce soit, puisse potentiellement faire partie d'un processus de gouvernance.La gouvernance est essentiellement un processus multipartite. Comme le montre dans ce dossier l'article de David Douglas, elle peut être centrée sur tout un territoire ou sur des thèmes ou des orientations particulièrement importants pour un territ…
Government versus Governance
It should be noted straight away that Governance is not Government, although government at any level can potentially become part of a governance process.Governance essentially is a multi-stakeholder process (e.g. the article by David Douglas); it can be focused on a whole territory or on particular themes or orientations of importance to a territory and different actors and citizens; however, it frequently becomes necessary to take a more holisti…
Without Representation, No Taxation
This Essay is the first general survey of the taxation of free Blacks in free and slave states between the Revolutionary and Civil Wars. A few states treated all equally for tax purposes, but most states enacted taxation systems that subjected free Blacks to different requirements. Both free and slave states viewed free Blacks as an undesirable population, and this Essay posits that—within the relevant political constraints—states used taxes and …
Giddens' Theory of Structuration
Anthony Giddens is one of the most respected and influential social theorists at work today. This wide-ranging and stimulating volume, first published in 1991, provides an authoratative and penetrating critical assessment of social theory. It will be of use to all students of sociology and social theory.
Giddens' Theory of Structuration
Metropolitan Vulnerability and Strategic Roles for Periurban Agricultural Territories in the Context of Climate Change and Variability
Las regiones metropolitanas son vulnerables al cambio climático desde distintas perspectivas. Los territorios rurales apoyan muchas funciones estratégicas esenciales para la calidad de vida de estas regiones, incluida su contribución a la seguridad alimentaria. La supervivencia de la agricultura metropolitana requiere no solo la protección de los recursos agrícolas, sino también que el valor de la funcionalidad de varios de estos territorios agrí…
Évaluation des impacts sociaux de projets majeurs dans l'étalement périurbain, le cas de Stablex à Balinville, région de Montréal
Depuis les années 1970, la grande banlieue montréalaise, dont Blainville fait partie, a vu ses limites s'élargir, ses activités se diversifier et sa gestion se complexifier. Dans ce complexe environnement, comment évaluer l'impact social de l'implantation d'une industrie d'envergure? L'étude rétrospective de Blainville (1977-1993), une période qui inclut l'arrivée de STABLEX (gestion des déchets dangereux), permet de cerner les agents et les proc…

Agriculture and Innovation in the Urban Fringe
This paper presents the urban fringe as an area where alternative forms of agriculture, i.e. organic farming, are favoured through closer access to such resources as a large urban market and specialised agricultural services. An analysis of organic farming in Quebec, Canada, shows that urban fringe areas account for the highest level of activity in organic farming compared to other regions, confirming the presence of conditions encouraging innova…
Évolution De l'Agriculture Maraîchère Au Québec De 1940 À 1990
Depuis plus d'un siècle, l'agriculture québécoise en général, et la production maraîchère en particulier, ont subi d'importantes transformations. Cette étude historique vise à comprendre comment la production maraîchère a évolué par rapport aux changements dans l'environnement décisionnel général de l'agriculture entre 1940 et 1990. L'analyse des données statiques de superficie, de production et de rendement pour 12 légumes ont permis d'identifie…
