        Re-evaluating Irish national security policy

        Affordable threats?

        by Michael Mulqueen

        On the afternoon of September 11 2001 the Irish Prime Minister (Taoiseach), Bertie Ahern ordered the 'heads of the security services of key government departments' to undertake a complete re-evaluation of measures to protect the state from attack. Hence, underway within hours of the 9/11 outrage in the United States was potentially the most far-reaching review of Irish national security in decades. This book, the first major academic investigation of Irish national security policy as it has operated since 9/11, provides a theoretically informed analysis of that re-evaluation and the decisions which have been taken as a consequence of it up until September 2008. In so doing it draws on unprecedented access to Ireland's police, security and intelligence agencies; over twenty senior personnel agreed to be interviewed. Theoretically the author demonstrates the utility to the analysis of national security policy of three conceptual models of historical institutionalism, governmental politics and threat evaluation. The text is of interest to scholars of Security Studies, International Relations and Politics, as well as state and NGO personnel, journalists and general readers. ;

        Jerusalem Review (Jerusalem Review, número 7)

        by _Gabriel Moked

        Jerusalem Review (Jerusalem Review, número 7) Redactor: Gabriel Moked «Poemas de Yehuda Amijai, Rajel, Maya Bejerano y Moshé Dor, relatos de Yoram Kaniuk y Arié Stav, ensayos de A.B. Yehoshua y Gabriel Moked y una entrevista a Naguib Mahfouz, todo ello traducido al inglés, son los puntos destacados del nuevo número de la revista de literatura y cultura hebrea, «The Jerusalem Review» que acaba de publicarse. Este número contiene 240 páginas, algunas con textos en inglés y el resto con traducciones. Esta publicación se distribuye a abonados en Israel y en el extranjero, a bibliotecas de judaica de todo el mundo y a revistas literarias y escritores judíos y no judíos de destaque. El comité de redacción del número 7 de «The Jerusalem Review» incluye algunos de los mejores escritores y miembros del mundo académico en Israel y en el extranjero. En concordancia con el marco ideológico básico de la revista, publicamos en ella traducciones al inglés de textos en hebreo postbíblico de todas las épocas. Así, se puede encontrar en ella poemas de poetas israelíes modernos, junto con Abraham Ibn Ezra y Berl Pomerantz (un poeta judío de la época anterior al Holocausto). La sección de prosa incluye una larga novela de Yoram Kaniuk y memorias del Holocausto de Arié Stav. Otra sección incluye obras de escritores judíos de Estados Unidos y de Gran Bretaña, como Paul Oppenheimer, Alicia Ostriker, Mark Strand, Elaine Feinstein y Charles Bernstein. Debido a la decisión del redactor de dar el podio, en cada uno de los números de la «Review», a un poeta o escritor no judío que desea mantener un diálogo con la historia y la cultura judeo-israelí y con la literatura hebrea, optamos por incluir en este número poemas traducidos del polaco al inglés, de uno de los poetas y escritores polacos más famosos en la actualidad, Krzysztof Karasek. La sección de ensayos incluye un ensayo en gran escala de Amos Funkenstein sobre La teología frente al Holocausto, así como ensayos de A. B. Yehoshua y Gabriel Moked sobre la identidad judía e israelí. Junto a estas secciones, la Review también incluye una sección de Oriente Medio con una entrevista realizada hace algunos años al Premio Nobel egipcio Naguib Mahfouz, sumamente pertinente para las relaciones actuales entre Israel y Egipto y los demás países árabes. Esta sección también incluye poemas de dos poetas israelíes drusos, Naim Araidi y Nazi H'ir y una traducción de poemas del gran poeta y místico sufí persa, Yalal el-Din Rumi. La importancia de The Jerusalem Review radica, entre otras cosas, en que es un representante destacado del mundo cultural y literario de la cultura judía en general y de Israel en particular y que contraataca los interminables esfuerzos por socavar la legitimidad cultural del pueblo judío y de Israel.

        Nutrition and Feeding Organic Cattle

        by Robert Blair

        Organic cattle farming is on the increase, with consumer demand for organic milk and meat growing yearly. Beginning with an overview of the aims and principles behind organic cattle production, this book presents extensive information about how to feed cattle so that the milk and meat produced meet organic standards, and provides a comprehensive summary of ruminant digestive processes and nutrition. Since the publication of the first edition, global consumers have increasingly become concerned with the sustainability of meat production. Here, Robert Blair considers the interrelationships of sustainable practices and profitability of organic herds, reviewing how to improve forage production and quality, and minimizing the need for supplementary feeding using off-farm ingredients. This new edition also covers: - Managing a recurrent shortage of organic feed ingredients, due to increased GM feed crop cultivation worldwide - Current findings on appropriate breeds and grazing systems for forage-based organic production - Diet-related health issues in organic herds and the effects of organic production on meat and milk quality. Required reading for animal science researchers, advisory personnel that service the organic milk and beef industries and students interested in organic milk and meat production, this book is also a useful resource for organic farming associations, veterinarians, and feed and food industry personnel.

        An Apple of Good Hopes

        by Holoborodko Vasyl

        Selected poems from almost all of his poetry collections are included in the book by Vasyl‘ Holoborod‘ko (born in 1945), a prominent representative of the Kyiv School of Poets, one of the most famous Ukrainian poets in the world literary context of the 20th Century. Despite Soviet censorship and persecutions, the poet managed to remain a nonconformist, making a significant contribution to the literary process. At one time, the anthology of the world poetry of the 20th century was published in Belgrade, with a telling title From the Bengalee Rabindranath Tagore to the Ukrainian Vasyl‘ Holoborod‘ko. In 1966, Holoborodko wrote a prophetic poem that began as follows, "They stole my name..." And in 2016, his name was stolen from him when his name was given to the main character of the entertainment TV show Servant of the People... Nevertheless, as history proves, the Poet also has a chance to win. But, perhaps, only after earthly life...

        RNAi for Plant Improvement and Protection

        by Bruno Mezzetti, Jeremy Sweet, Lorenzo Burgos

        RNA interference (RNAi) has the potential to make major contributions towards sustainable crop production and protection with minimal environmental impacts compared to other technologies. RNAi is being developed and exploited both within plants (i.e. host-induced gene silencing, HIGS) and/or as topical applications (e.g. spray-induced gene silencing, SIGS) for targeting pest and pathogen genes and for manipulating endogenous gene expression in plants. Chapters by international experts review current knowledge on RNAi, methods for developing RNAi systems in GM plants and applications for crop improvement, crop production and crop protection. Chapters examine both endogenous systems in GM plants and exogenous systems where interfering RNAs are applied to target plants, pests and pathogens. The biosafety of these different systems is examined and methods for risk assessment for food, feed and environmental safety are discussed. Finally, aspects of the regulation of technologies exploiting RNAi and the socio-economic impacts of RNAi technologies are discussed.

        Capacity Building for Sustainable Development

        by Valentine Udoh James

        Capacity building is a topic of intense focus in many industrialized countries. This book explores the theoretical underpinnings of capacity building to sustain the natural, cultural and human resources of communities. It reviews the extensive literature on capacity-building strategies and policies and examines the implications of sustainable development in communities around the world. The book's approach is both theoretical and applied. It offers methods of operationalizing sustainable development and sustainability theories and explores capacity building methods at different levels of government. Successful practices in non-governmental and governmental agency roles are examined. By considering the path towards embracing whole, or partial, sustainability, it provides a comprehensive analysis and examination of how to build capacity in tackling many development problems, especially those linked to infrastructure accumulation and land-use development. Contributors shed light on the overall impact of globalisation and many concepts related to sustainable development and sustainability of the economic socio-cultural and environmental systems. This book: · Examines the links between environment and sustainable development; · Provides models for capacity building; · Considers the role of globalization in sustainable development; · Renders a theoretical and applied examination of the issues; · Provides multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary approaches. This book is recommended for research libraries, for graduate studies in economic development, sustainable development, environmental management; and undergraduate studies relating to developing and emerging countries. It is also useful for government officials, researchers, decision makers and policy analysts involved in sustainable development.

        The Family of Love

        By Lording Barry

        by Sophie Tomlinson

        The Family of Love charts a successful love intrigue between the cash-strapped Gerardine, and Maria, the sequestered niece of the mercenary Doctor Glister. Their romance unfolds against the dissection of two citizen marriages, the Glisters' and the Purges'. Mistress Purge attends Familist meetings independently, arousing her husband's suspicions about her marital fidelity. Two libertines, Lipsalve and Gudgeon, go in search of sex and solubility (freedom from constipation), receiving more than they bargain for in respect of the latter. This scholarly edition of Family of Love marks the first occasion on which the comedy is attributed to Lording Barry in print. It brings together literary and historical discussion with a thorough analysis of the play's disputed authorship. Tomlinson highlights Barry's rich vein of burlesque humour in a comedy that combines magic, a trunk, and a mock-court session with vigorous colloquial language.
