Abstract

This review assesses the performance of Colombian agriculture over the last two decades, evaluates Colombian agricultural policy reforms and provides recommendations to address key challenges in the future. The evaluation is based on the approach that agriculture policy should be evidence-based and carefully designed and implemented to support productivity, competitiveness and sustainability, while avoiding unnecessary distortions to production decisions and to trade. The report includes a special chapter focusing on agricultural innovation.

Abstract

"How much does it cost?" We think of this question as one that preoccupies the nation's shoppers, not its statesmen. But, as Pocketbook Politics dramatically shows, the twentieth-century American polity in fact developed in response to that very consumer concern. In this groundbreaking study, Meg Jacobs demonstrates how pocketbook politics provided the engine for American political conflict throughout the twentieth century. From Woodrow Wilson to Franklin Roosevelt to Richard Nixon, national politics turned on public anger over the high cost of living. Beginning with the explosion of prices at the turn of the century, every strike, demonstration, and boycott was, in effect, a protest against rising prices and inadequate income. On one side, a reform coalition of ordinary Americans, mass retailers, and national politicians fought for laws and policies that promoted militant unionism, government price controls, and a Keynesian program of full employment. On the other, small businessmen fiercely resisted this low-price, high-wage agenda that threatened to bankrupt them. This book recaptures this dramatic struggle, beginning with the immigrant Jewish, Irish, and Italian women who flocked to Edward Filene's famous Boston bargain basement that opened in 1909 and ending with the Great Inflation of the 1970's. Pocketbook Politics offers a new interpretation of state power by integrating popular politics and elite policymaking. Unlike most social historians who focus exclusively on consumers at the grass-roots, Jacobs breaks new methodological ground by insisting on the centrality of national politics and the state in the nearly century-long fight to fulfill the American Dream of abundance.

Abstract

"Vlaamse koopkracht" is het resultaat van een ambitieuze opzet. Voor een periode van meer dan vijf eeuwen meekijken in de portemonnee van de man en vrouw in de straat is geen kleinigheid. Alleen een historicus die over de beperkingen van zijn vak en opleiding heenstapt, kan daarin slagen. Het is het proberen ruimschoots waard : de evolutie van de levensstandaard vormt de kern van elke sociale geschiedenis. Sociale geschiedenis is toch het antwoord op de vraag hoeveel een gewone an verdient, hoe lang zijn werkag duurt, of zijn vrouw en kinderen mee werken, hoeveel huur, hoeveel belastin hij betaalt, hoeveel zijn gezin kan bestenden. Grafieken en tabellen verteren minder vlot dans anekdotische verhalen, maar ze leveren wel de enige manier om de "cleyne luyden" weer tot leven te brengen. En de historicus Vandenbroeke, gewapend met de kennis van het werleden, aarzelt niet te spreken over de koopkracht van morgen : de recente groeiobsessie en werkverslaving ziet hij plaats ruimen voor een stabielere, meer "ecologische" levenswijze op mensenmaat.
