International audience Since 1995, in the framework of the Pan-European process of Ministerial Conferences on the Protection of Forests in Europe, every five years France establishes sustainable management indicators for forests in metropolitan France. The four successive publications now available provide information, according to the six criteria for sustainable forest management formulated in Helsinki in 1993, on developments over time in the state of French forests and the activities they generate. They also give rise to questions about the extent to which this follow-up meet the needs of forests in the area of public policies, including the fight against the greenhouse effect and adaptation to climate change. In addition, they suggest improvements for the short, medium and long term aimed at enhancing the switch from a statistical description to a strategic vision, as well as harmonisation and coherence of information, and extending the legal, political, institutional and geographic scope of sustainable forest management indicators. ; Depuis 1995, dans le cadre du processus paneuropéen des conférences ministérielles pour la protection des forêts en Europe, la France établit tous les cinq ans des indicateurs de gestion durable pour les forêts françaises métropolitaines. Les quatre publications successives actuellement disponibles à ce sujet nous renseignent ainsi, au gré des six critères formulés en 1993 à Helsinki pour la gestion durable des forêts, sur le développement dans le temps de l'état des forêts françaises et des activités qu'elles engendrent. Elles conduisent aussi à s'interroger sur la mesure dans laquelle ce suivi répond aux grands enjeux forestiers des politiques publiques, y compris la lutte contre l'effet de serre et l'adaptation au changement climatique. Elles suggèrent enfin des améliorations à court, moyen ou long terme qui viseraient à renforcer le passage d'une description statistique à une vision stratégique, ainsi que l'harmonisation et la cohérence des informations, et à étendre les ...

Reflecting its designated status, the Cookery Collection at the Brotherton Library, University of Leeds, includes many unique or rare documents that have not been digitised but which have significant potential value for international researchers. The collections are: 1. Cookery Printed Books is composed of a range of individual gifts made to the university since 1939. It includes nearly 10,000 printed volumes and over 140 manuscript recipe and household books. Its holdings range from 1487 to the present day. The collection has particular thematic strengths in astronomy, empire, home economics, medicine, confectionery, recipes, menus, and vegetarianism. National traditions, including those of China and Italy among others, are also well represented. 2. Cookery Scrapbooks . The work of a single cook, Ann Sergeant, the extensive cuttings (packaging, recipes, ingredients) and recipes in these scrapbooks offer a distinctive window of the evolution of food production and cooking since World War Two. 3. Michael Bateman Archive. This archive includes scrapbooks, videotape, artwork, and diaries alongside the published writings of Michael Bateman. The collection reflects Bateman's interest in contemporary food writing as well as in processes of food manufacture, including his 1980s Campaign for Real Bread. 4. Food Standards Committee Papers . Alongside his noted work in establishing the Procter Department of Food Science at the University of Leeds, Professor Alan Ward was chair of the British government's Food Standards Commitment between 1959 and 1977. These papers include a series of important reports that the committee published in this time among other contextual documents. Scoping work carried out as a result of this AHRC research network has indicated that a t least 17% of the material in the Cookery Collection has been digitised. Approximately 4% of this material has been digitised by the university while the remaining 96% sits on external resources such as the Internet Archive.

Summary The aim of this article was to carry out a diagnosis of how women-led companies are being financed and what are the main obstacles to accessing funding sources. The data were collected by applying a questionnaire to a sample of 272 voluntary female entrepreneurs in Mexico City. The main findings show that micro size predominates in services and trade sectors and do not have legal personality. Female entrepreneurs do not access government and private support as a result of the lack of participation in business networks, so they prefer to finance themselves and family and friends. For this reason, only a third have accessed sources of external financing, and the main obstacle to obtaining this is the excess of requirements, including ownership of immovable property and collateral. These findings highlight the lack of support for female entrepreneurs, who need both skills and funding to make their businesses competitive. ; Resumen El objetivo de este artículo fue realizar un diagnóstico para conocer de qué manera se están financiando las empresas dirigidas por mujeres y cuáles son los principales obstáculos para acceder a fuentes de financiamiento. Se recolectaron los datos aplicando un cuestionario a una muestra de 272 empresarias voluntarias de la Ciudad de México. Los principales hallazgos muestran que predomina el tamaño micro, en sectores servicios y comercio, y no cuentan con personalidad jurídica. Las empresarias no acceden a las ayudas gubernamentales y privadas como consecuencia de la falta de participación en redes empresariales, por lo que prefieren financiarse con recursos propios y con familiares y amigos. Por esta razón, solo una tercera parte han accedido a fuentes de financiamiento externo, y el principal obstáculo para obtenerlo es el exceso de requisitos, entre ellos, ser propietarias de bienes inmuebles y contar con garantías. Estos hallazgos ponen en evidencia la falta de apoyo para las mujeres empresarias, las cuales requieren tanto capacitación como financiamiento para hacer ...

En la presente coyuntura socioeconómica, la posibilidad de inclusión a través del empleo de las personas con discapacidad es importante no solo por las posibilidades de autonomía económica, sino también por las oportunidades de socialización. Sobre esta base, y considerando que las empresas socialmente responsables asumen la inclusión de estas personas en sus plantillas como una posibilidad de crecimiento y de diferenciación, en el texto se analiza, de manera descriptiva, el papel que las administraciones públicas (AA. PP.) autonómicas, con competencias en la materia, pueden, deben y están haciendo para fomentar la responsabilidad social corporativa (RSC) y la gestión de la inclusión laboral de las personas con discapacidad. A partir de la discusión teórica y de la revisión de las políticas desarrolladas, se pretende dar respuesta a las siguientes cuestiones de fondo: ¿Cómo se está atendiendo la pluralidad en las empresas desde las administraciones públicas? ¿Son la RSC y la gestión de las personas con discapacidad modas pasajeras o por el contrario pueden resultar un instrumento válido de inclusión de estas personas dentro de los espacios de trabajo? Llegando a la conclusión de que esto solo será posible desde una RSC estratégica e integradora. : At the present socio-economic juncture, the possibility of inclusion through the employment of people with disability is important not only because of the possibilities of economic autonomy, but also because of the opportunities for socialization. On this basis and considering that socially responsible companies take on the inclusion of these people in their workforce as a possibility of growth and differentiation, in the text is analyzed, in a descriptive way, the role that the autonomous Public Administrations (AA. PP.), with competences in the area, can, should and are doing to promote Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) and management for the labor inclusion of people with disability. Based on the theoretical discussion and the review of the policies developed, ...

In political philosophy one often encounters claims on behalf of pluralism, yet there is anything but a consensus over the meaning of this fundamental concept. It is true that there is no single pluralist tradition; rather, there are different pluralist traditions within different domains of practical reason. No one would object, however, to the notion that Isaiah Berlin's "value pluralism" is a genuine form of meta-ethical pluralism. Charles Taylor is another philosopher who is often called a pluralist, but I shall argue that this is a mistake. One of the central goals of his philosophy is that of reconciling competing aims and ends and this is incompatible with pluralism.

Little is generally known about international trade in forest-related products in spite of the fact that a significant portion of world production is exported. Two irreversible trends underlie international trade in forest-related products. one is globalisation while the other is adding as much value as possible locally by processing the materials to the greatest extent possible in the country of origin. Some of the more surprising recent developments are the growth in trade in wood as a source of energy and the dependency of Europe on its massive imports in this area. International trade in forest-related products is a continually changing sector that follows developments in the technical, economic, social and political spheres. Its growth has been spectacular and will remain strong in coming years. The greatest potential for development will come from environmental management, improved logistics and innovation. ; Le commerce international des produits forestiers est souvent mal connu dans son ensemble, bien qu'une proportion importante de la production mondiale soit exportée. Deux tendances irréversibles sous-tendent les échanges internationaux de produits forestiers. La première est celle de la globalisation, la deuxième est d'ajouter le plus de valeur possible localement en transformant autant que possible dans le pays d'origine. Parmi les évolutions récentes, le développement du commerce de bois énergie est surprenant, tout comme la dépendance de l'Europe vis-à-vis de ses importations massives dans ce domaine. Le commerce international des produits forestiers est un secteur en constante mutation. Il évolue avec les réalités techniques, économiques, sociales et politiques. Sa croissance a été spectaculaire et restera forte dans les années à venir. Ses principaux axes de développement seront la gestion environnementale, l'amélioration de la logistique et l'innovation.

Die Ereignisse vom 6. Und 7. April in der zentralasiatischen Republik Kirgisistan bilden den politischen Tiefpunkt in der Geschichte des seit fast 20 Jahren unabhängigen jungen Landes. Die Bilder aus der Hauptstadt Bischkek sowie aus den Provinzstädten Talas und Naryn, in denen blutige Proteste und Straßenschlachten zur Flucht des Präsidenten Kurmanbek Bakijew führten, sind mehr als erschütternd: 81 Tote, über 1600 Verletzte, verwüstete Gebäude und geplünderte Geschäfte. Die vorläufige Bilanz mag erschrecken genug sein, noch besorgniserregender könnten aber die langfristigen Folgen der politischen Unruhen für die gesamte Region werden. Die neue Übergangsregierung unter Rosa Otunbajewa steht vor gewaltigen Herausforderungen und muss einen drohenden Bürgerkrieg abwenden. Die Europäische Union versäumt es unterdessen Handlungsstärke zu beweisen (.).
