La Révolution Doublement Verte appelle d'importants changements économiques et institutionnels pour faire face aux risques futurs associés à la croissance de l'agriculture et des secteurs liés. Après avoir rappelé les limites de la Révolution Verte et les bases conceptuelles de la Révolution Doublement Verte (production, respect de l'environnement, justice sociale, équité, viabilité), les auteurs en exposent les conditions institutionnelles : incitations de l'Etat sur le fonctionnement des marchés, privatisation de certaines activités agricoles, décentralisation de la propriété et de la gestion des ressources naturelles, équité dans l'accès aux ressources, prise en compte des savoirs locaux. Les conditions économiques définissent un type de politique agricole à plusieurs facettes dont il convient d'assurer la cohérence : passage à une croissance intensive, mise en place d'un système alimentaire à coûts réduits, prise en compte de la demande nationale et régionale dans la croissance agricole, assurer des importations non concurrentes d'une prodution nationale et des exportations comme moteur subsidiaire de la croissance. Une information transparente sur les comportements et une concertation permanente des acteurs du marché assortie d'une stabilité des prix devraient permettre la mise en place d'une politique des prix incitative où l'Etat décentralisé est le régulateur des mécanismes de libéralisation des marchés

What did you do before Google? The rise of Google as the dominant Internet search provider reflects a generationally-inflected notion that everything that matters is now on the Web, and should, in the moral sense of the verb, be accessible through search. In this theoretically nuanced study of search technology's broader implications for knowledge production and social relations, the authors shed light on a culture of search in which our increasing reliance on search engines influences not only the way we navigate, classify, and evaluate Web content, but also how we think about ourselves and t

"Urban Infrastructures creates space for an encounter between historians, humanists, and social scientists who seek new methodological approaches to the history of urban infrastructure. It draws on recent work across history, anthropology, science and technology studies, geography, resilience/sustainability, and other disciplines to explore the social effects of infrastructure. The volume rejects narrow conceptions of infrastructure history as only the history of public works, and instead expands the definition to all business enterprises and public bodies that provide the goods and services essential for the day-to-day lives of most people. Essays examine traditional artifacts such as roads, highways, and waterworks, as well as nontraditional topics like regimes of heating and cooling, the processing and distribution of food, and even the metaphysics of electromagnetic infrastructure. Contributors reveal both the material grounding of urban social relations and the social life of material infrastructure. In the end, they show that infrastructure profoundly reshapes urban life even as residents fight to reshape infrastructure to their own ends"--
