Taylor & Francis Children Citizenship and Environment
Book SynopsisIn this significantly revised second edition of Bronwyn Haywardâs acclaimed book Children Citizenship and Environment, she examines how students, with teachers, parents, and other activists, can learn to take effective action to confront the complex drivers of the current climate crisis including: economic and social injustice, colonialism and racism. The global school strikes demand adults, governments, and businesses take far-reaching action in response to our climate crisis. The school strikes also remind us why this important youthful activism urgently needs the support of all generations. The #SchoolStrike edition of Children Citizenship and Environment includes all new contributions by youth, indigenous and disability activists, researchers and educators: Raven Cretney, Mehedi Hasan, Sylvia Nissen, Jocelyn Papprill, Kate Prendergast, Kera Sherwood Oâ Regan, Mia Sutherland, Amanda Thomas, Sara Tolbert, Sarah Thomson, Josiah Tualamali'i, and Amelia Woods.Trade Review"Bronwyn Hayward captures the struggles of a generation whose present and future is threatened by climate change and other interrelated crises. Her call for more democratic processes highlights the need for deep social transformations, and her SEEDS citizenship model provides us with an actionable framework for nurturing political agency in support a vision of communitarian ecological citizenship. This revised #SchoolStrike edition presents a powerful perspective on youth activism and a growing movement that is committed to equity and social justice." – Professor Karen O’Brien, University of Oslo, Norway"Writing this during the Covid-19 pandemic is a salutary reminder of the importance of books like the second edition of Bronwyn Hayward's Children Citizenship and Environment. Amidst our current crisis Hayward's book is a source of hope. Hope in our young people and the next generation rising to the challenge and opportunities for transformation created by the planetary emergency. 'Hope is the thing with feathers' the poet Emily Dickinson noted. But hope is also the child standing with a poster demanding climate action now, as Hayward's timely and important book tells us." – John Barry, Professor of Green Political Economy, Queen's University Belfast, Northern Ireland"Bronwyn Hayward is the rare political scientist who listens to the political views of those who are too young to vote. In Children Citizenship and Environment #SchoolStrike Edition she shares the civic and environmental concerns of children and adolescents and urges us to expand our political imagination, see the connections between ecological and social crises, and embrace the values of a new generation of moral and political activists." – Professor Constance A. Flanagan, Vaughan Bascom Professor of Women, Family, and Community, School of Human Ecology, University of Wisconsin-Madison, USA."This new edition of Bronwyn Hayward’s pathfinding text is an all-too-rare thing: serious scholarship that is seriously useful. The book’s communitarian approach to ecological citizenship gives clear pointers for adult allies, teachers and parents that can help them support young people who are having to make sense of an unprecedented body of challenges. Faced with a chaotic climate, natural disasters, the threats of terrorism and pandemics, young people need and deserve support in developing the skills that will allow them to negotiate paths to a better future. The book points to ways of supporting the development of more engaged and effective young citizens in these precarious times. In a nice modelling of the approach she advocates, the voices of children and young adults of Hayward’s own community of Christchurch, New Zealand, direct the book’s argument. The vision of an inter-dependent ecological and citizenship education offers an energetic and purposeful way of renewing our democracy. The suggested recipe of imagination, creativity and courage offers glimpses of a far better future." – Professor Joe Smith, Director at UK Royal Geographic Society, UK.Praise for the 1st edition of Children, Citizenship and Environment‘Bronwyn Hayward's magisterial book reminds us that it's not just the biosphere that is threatened through environmental degradation, but our children's imaginations as well, and hence all our future hopes. As we won't achieve sustainable human wellbeing within a flourishing biosphere without citizens who both care about sustainability and are able to act on their concerns, we need to take children seriously as political actors. Bronwyn Hayward argues that, because we cannot live sustainably when social structures and decision-making are unjust, we need to nurture young people as citizens if they are to address the wide-ranging problems we've created: dangerous environmental change, growing social inequality, an unsustainable global economy, and weakening democracies. This wonderful book should be read by all those who think today's childhoods are fine, or who think that children are unfit for democratic involvement, or that we'll get anywhere through individual action – and also by those who already understand the issues, and the importance of children's involvement in their resolution, as they will be re-inspired; in other words, by everyone.’ – William Scott, University of Bath, UK and President, UK National Association for Environmental Education‘This book is a glorious testament to fortitude, to brilliant scholarship, to the wonderful voices of children's engagement, and to real hope that the future can indeed be secure. Our job is to make it so. Bronwyn Hayward shows how we can do this through the enlightened and patient voices of tomorrow's sustainable citizens.’ – Tim O'Riordan, University of East Anglia, UK‘Bronwyn Hayward's creative masterpiece describes how we can escape the last 20 years of neo-liberal thinking and its toxic impact on our precious children today and in the future.’ – Susan St John, University of Auckland and NZ Child Poverty Action Group spokesperson‘A thoughtful and scholarly investigation of how we can create the conditions for children to become confident, participating ecological citizens, capable of collective imagination and action for a better world. There can be no more important task for the future.’ – Jeanette Fitzsimons, Co-Leader of the New Zealand Green Party and Member of Parliament 1995–2009‘Bronwyn Hayward provides a timely, thoughtful and constructive contribution to an important area of work: understanding how children can develop environmental citizenship. The generation growing up today need to be given the skills and opportunities to engage in shaping their future, rather than be expected to inherit the decisions made by adults now. Hayward makes a strong argument for community collaboration and creative imagination as some of the key ingredients.’ – Lucy Stone, climate change advisor, UNICEF, UK‘In this inspiring book Bronwyn Hayward explains how children have been left out of the political process or included in only token ways, and the potential cost of this to society. She describes how children can learn to be citizens by engaging in democratic decision-making processes in their local environments. Including children in decision-making benefits the whole of society in unexpected ways. The book is compelling reading for all those interested in the future of democracy and of the environment.’ – Russell Wills, New Zealand Children's Commissioner‘This book challenges the myths that our kids don't care about what we do as a society and where we are headed. Bronwyn Hayward shows, with alacrity and sensitivity, exactly how the new generation might determine the future. Thought-provoking, controversial and inspiring.’ – David Shearer, Leader of the New Zealand Labour Party 'written with passion and energy … conveys its thesis with great power' - Gary Clemitshaw, British Journal of Educational Studies 'a thoughtful, powerful and timely case' - Nancy Erbstein, Children, Youth and Environments 'This scholarly masterpiece … is a book full of hope that we can reunite and re-structure politics so that it is one of collective thinking, critical reasoning, compassion and reliance on each other to maintain a sustainable world. I implore everyone to read it; it is inspirational and above all crucially instructional in how we can mould the social handprint of future generations for an environmentally friendly world' – Jessica Richardson, Sherkin Comment 'Hayward takes an unequivocal stance, urging readers to adopt new practices which will better serve both children and the environment […] I recommend the book as vital reading for all who care for the next generation, the future of democracy and the planet.'Bronwyn E. Wood, Faculty of Education, Victoria University of Wellington, in New Zealand Geographer 'Hayward directs policymakers to shift the focus away from aging Baby Boomers and back to the world’s children who are most severely impacted by environmental injustice. Written in an academic style with many references to previous studies, this book must be read slowly and thoughtfully. However, the ideas presented will be worth the effort.' – Green Teacher 'This book is a gem. Drawing on a wide range of disciplines including psychology, political science, sociology and developmental economics, Bronwyn Hayward shows respect for children’s thinking and contributes to the debates about how to create processes for human flourishing. Children and the environment are clearly at the centre of her thinking and the book will delight child advocates and environmentalists. But it would be a mistake to pigeonhole this book as only a book for child advocates. It is not. Bronwyn uses children’s frames of reference embedding in multi-disciplinary theory to show adults some paths to creating sustainable development. Through her scholarship and thoughtful approach to understanding children’s worlds, she adds a different frame onto seemingly intractable problems of inequality, climate change and democratic participation in wealthy nations.' - New Zealand Sociology 'Children, Citizenship and Environment – Nurturing a democratic imagination in a changing world – is a powerful book in terms of the positions presented, questions asked and observations it makes, particularly since they are linked to actual studies involving children. There are many unique and mind-opening thoughts in this book about society today that question the essence of citizenship, how it is taught, learned and expressed.' - Jeff Thurston, Society for the Protection of Nature in Lebanon "Bronwyn Hayward captures the struggles of a generation whose present and future is threatened by climate change and other interrelated crises.

Taylor & Francis Ltd Herman Dalys Economics for a Full World
Book SynopsisAs the first biography of Professor Herman Daly, this book provides an in-depth account of one of the leading thinkers and most widely read writers on economics, environment and sustainability.Herman Daly's economics for a full world, based on his steady-state economics, has been widely acknowledged through numerous prestigious international awards and prizes. Drawing on extensive interviews with Daly and in-depth analysis of his publications and debates, Peter Victor presents a unique insight into Daly's life from childhood to the present day, describing his intellectual development, inspirations and influence. Much of the book is devoted to a comprehensive account of Daly's foundational contributions to ecological economics. It describes how his insights and proposals have been received by economists and non-economists and the extraordinary relevance of Daly's full world economics to solving the economic problems of today and tomorrow. Innovative and timely, this booTrade Review"No one has made a larger contribution than Herman Daly to what an economics for today’s "full world" needs to encompass, and how to make the transition to a steady state of sustainable wellbeing for humans and the rest of nature. Peter Victor’s biography is compelling and truly inspirational." Robert Costanza, Vice-Chancellor’s Chair in Public Policy, Crawford School of Public Policy, The Australian National University, Australia"Vibrant, timely and thoroughly accessible, Peter Victor’s elegant new biography charts the life and work of a genuine radical. Daly's steady-state economics marked a turning point in economic thinking with revolutionary implications. From polio survivor to World Bank advisor, Victor paints a sympathetic and long overdue portrait of an extraordinary man with extraordinary ideas."Tim Jackson, Director of the Centre for the Understanding of Sustainable Prosperity and Professor of Sustainable Development, University of Surrey, UK"How appropriate to see a biography of one path-breaking Ecological Economist written by another! Peter Victor clearly explains Herman Daly’s contributions, showing how innovative and prescient Daly’s insights have proven to be. The personal stories that ground this book help make it an accessible entry-point into ways of considering the most challenging questions of our time. Patricia E. (Ellie) Perkins, Faculty of Environmental and Urban Change, York University, Canada"A profound and captivating account of the life and ideas of Herman Daly, one of the founders of ecological economics. For Daly the economy is a subsystem of the biosphere, where economic efficiency is secondary to ecological sustainability, growth is subordinate to development, and scale and entropy rule supreme." Atif Kubursi, Department of Economics, McMaster University, Canada"I do not think it is too strong a statement to say that he should be awarded the Nobel Prize in Economics. His work is that meaningful and important." Elizabeth Troutt, Department of Economics, University of Manitoba, Canada"He is one of the clearest and most succinct thinkers and writers to whom I have been exposed to, posing issues of great complexity with enormous skill and simplicity." Peter May, Institute of Economics, Federal Rural University of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil"Herman was instrumental in shaping my views on all the work that I now do… Truly a kind, gentle man of enormous courage and wisdom. I revere him and cherish the times I have had with him. He deserves the Nobel, but so much more." L.Hunter Lovins, President of Natural Capitalism Solutions, Longmont, Colorado, USA"Looking for alternative approaches to the economics of natural resources, I found a light in Herman Daly’s publications."Alejandra Saravia, Researcher and Assistant Professor, Universidad Mayor de San Simon, Cochabamba, Bolivia"Herman deserves a biography as he has inspired so many who question an endless growth economy!"Haydn Washington, Environmental scientist, writer and activist, PANGEA Research Unit, UNSW, Australia"He deserves to be recognized as one of the great economists of our time."Anders Hayden, Associate Professor, Department of Political Science, Dalhousie University, Canada"This man is a giant in an age of midgets. The best of the kind of southern gentlemen. A visionary in an age blinded by its own arrogance; drunk on a superficial idea of progress. We should all thank god for sending this man among us."Peter Brown, Professor, Bieler School of Environment/Natural Resource Sciences/Geography, McGill University, Montreal, Canada"As a snooty physical scientist, I dismissed economics as shallow. Daly has converted me to appreciating how deep a subject it is." Robert Herendeen, Gund Affiliate, Adjunct Professor, Rubenstein School for the Environment and Natural Resources, University of Vermont, USA"Peter Victor's biography of Herman Daly is a worthy read for all who have been influenced by Daly's ideas. It will remind readers which parts of their own thinking can be traced back to the writings of this pioneer." Brett D. Dolter in Ecological Economics, Volume 200, October 2022Table of Contents1.

Taylor & Francis Multinational Business and Transnational Regions
Book SynopsisMultinational Enterprise and Transnational Regions offers an innovative approach to the study of the history of transnational economic regions. The Rhine valley is such a region comprising the cities and areas along the Rhine river and its tributaries. The transition from coal to oil that unfolded between 1945 and 1973 rapidly transformed the region, shattering some of the old river-based connections and creating new ones with the introduction of large-scale cross-border oil pipelines. Multinational enterprises shaped these new regional connections but divergent national government responses gave rise to differentiated development in different parts of the Rhine valley. Multinational Enterprise and Transnational Regions argues that processes of regional change should be understood from transnational interconnections rather than from local or national perspectives. This book uses a transnational business history methodology to tease out the regionâs transformation and to circumvent the national bias in public sources. It will be of relevance to academics and researchers with an interest in regional and transnational European history, international business, environmental history, and business history, as well as practitioners interested in the oil industry, energy and energy history, business history and international business, and associated disciplines.Trade Review"A unique multi-national study in economic policy which breaks out of the national constraints of much business history work." –Kevin Tennent, University of York, UK"This book will appeal to a range of readers interested in business, economic, and energy history, as well as those who wish to better understand the nuances and tensions of postwar Europe's infrastructural integration." - Nicholas Ostrum, EuropeNowTable of ContentsIntroductionTransnational economic regions: capturing an illusive phenomenonResurrecting the Rhine as an economic regionEnergy transition in the Rhine region Part I Regional transformation — Energy transition in the Rhine regionChapter 1 The post-war reconstruction and the rise of oil, 1945-19511.1 Introduction1.2 The question of energy in post-war Western Europe 1.3 The impact of the Allied occupation on the Ruhr coal industry1.4 The Allied refining program: restarting the hydrogenation plants1.5 The case of Union Kraftstoff1.6 The geographical consequences of the Allied occupation1.7 ConclusionChapter 2 Oil unbounded: The Coal Crisis of 1957-82.1 Introduction2.2 The competition between coal and oil, 1950-19552.3 The rise of fuel oil and the 1958 coal crisis2.4 Stemming the tide: attempts to limit the rise of fuel oil2.5 ConclusionChapter 3 The growth of chemical clusters in the Rhine region, 1960-733.1 Introduction3.2 The Rhine-Ruhr refineries3.3 Deutsche Shell and Union Kraftstoff, 1951-19583.4 The Rhineland refinery of Deutsche Shell3.5 The post-war transition of the chemical industry3.6 An oil and petrochemical cluster in the Rhine-Ruhr area3.7 Effect of the transition on transport demand in the hinterland3.8 ConclusionsPart II Regional connections — From Rhine to pipelineChapter 4 Pipelines: The national approach, 1955-64.1 Introduction4.2 A pipeline to the Rhine-Ruhr area4.3 Rotterdam competing with Wilhelmshaven4.4 Wilhelmshaven: "the best deep water port in Europe"?4.5 ConclusionsChapter 5 The trans-European pipeline: The transnational approach: 1956-85.1 Introduction 5.2 From national to transnational: the trans-European pipeline plan5.3 Further complications 5.4 France, oil and the Cold War5.5 Endgame: The failure of the trans-European pipeline5.6 Why the trans-European pipeline never materialised 5.7 ConclusionChapter 6 Expanding transnational connections, 1959-736.1 Introduction6.2 The hydrocarbon hub: The Rotterdam port between 1950 and 1973 6.3 The expansion of the Rotterdam-Rhine pipeline, 1965-1968 6.4 The Rhine-Main pipeline, 1965-1971 6.5 Integrating chemical clusters in the Rhine basin, 1965-736.6 The Rotterdam-Antwerp pipeline, 1967-19696.7 ConclusionChapter 7 Transnational connections in the Rhine region: Evidence from transport flows7.1 Introduction7.2 Gateway to the Rhine?
