Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - Over the past thirty years, the ability of global finance to affect aspects of everyday life has been increasing at an unprecedented rate. The world of food bears vivid testimony to this tendency, through the scars opened by the 2008 world food price crisis, the iron fist of retailing giants that occupy the supply chain and the unsustainable ecological footprint left behind by global production networks. Hungry Capital offers a rigorous analysis of the influence that financial imperatives exert on the food economy at different levels: from the direct use of edible commodities as an object of speculation to the complex food chains set up by manufacturers and supermarkets. It argues that the circular compulsion to build profits upon profits that global finance injects into the world of food restructures the basic nurturing relationship between man and nature into a streamlined process from which value has to be mined. The end result is a monstrous Leviathan that holds together while at every step risks to crumble. …

Brossura. Condición: fine. Traduzione di Mardocco I. Roma, 2014; br., pp. 185, cm 15x22. (RX). Gli ultimi trent'anni hanno inaugurato un periodo in cui è aumentata, in maniera senza precedenti, la capacità del capitale finanziario di condizionare un numero crescente di aspetti del vivere quotidiano. Il mondo del cibo è uno di questi, sfigurato da cicatrici difficili da rimarginare. Le conseguenze sono pesanti: la crisi dei prezzi alimentari del 2008, il pugno di ferro dei giganti della distribuzione che occupano le filiere, la devastazione ecologica disseminata da reti globali di approvvigionamento, il furto di terre nel nome dello sviluppo. "In pasto al capitale" - testo giù uscito in Gran Bretagna nel 2013 col titolo "Hungry Capital" - presenta un'analisi accessibile, e al contempo rigorosa, dell'impatto che il sistema finanziario esercita sull'economia del cibo a vari livelli: partendo dalla speculazione sulle derrate alimentari fino alle intricatissime filiere messe in piedi da produttori e supermercati. Ad ogni passo, la finanza fa sprofondare il cibo in un circolo vizioso volto ad accumulare profitti su profitti e colonizza il rapporto tra esseri umani e natura su cui si regge l'agricoltura. Il risultato finale, sostiene Russi, è un Leviatano dai piedi d'argilla, che si tiene unito a stento. E che lascia sul terreno innumerevoli vittime: la vitalità dell'ecosistema, la resilienza dell'agricoltura e l'esistenza stessa dei contadini. Libro. …

Buch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - The Anthropocene, the proposition that human activity ushered a new geological era of climate instability, typically induces a sense of urgency in people. The Catastrophic Nature of Time examines this urgency as a glimpse into the human condition. Urgency in the face of anticipated catastrophe merely intensifies an ordinary, if elusive, experience of time: one with which humans have always been familiar but which we easily forget. To retrieve this elusive experience, as it haunts humanity in the shadow of the Anthropocene, Luigi Russi searches for it in the 'ordinary extraordinary' encounters in which it can still be experienced. These include making all manner of mistakes (from pupils in the science classroom to wanderers getting lost in the woods); falling silent before the ruins of Pompeii; and losing one's footing reading James Joyce's Finnegans Wake. Common to all these experiences is the sense that time is not a substance but a deed: the syncopation, rhythm to mark the course of activity. From this view, the Anthropocene merely reinforces what we have always known-we have never been in charge when it comes to keeping time. In his provocative view of time as a mediation undertaken at all levels of the biological and physical world, Russi builds on biosemiotics, media ecology, and catastrophe theory to remind readers of the risky and timeless human art of paying attention to the elements to find sync with the world.…
