Conceptualizing power to study social-ecological interactions
Provedor de dados: Ecology and Society
Autores: Boonstra, Wiebren J; Stockholm Resilience Centre, Stockholm University; wijnand.boonstra@su.se.
My aim is to conceptualize power using social science theory and to demonstrate why and how the concept of power can complement resilience studies and other analyses of social-ecological interaction. Social power as a scientific concept refers to the ability to influence both conduct and context. These two dimensions of power (conduct and context) can be observed by differentiating between various sources of power, including, for example, technology or mental power. The relevance of the conceptualization of power presented here is illustrated with the example of fire as a source of social-ecological power. I conclude by discussing how attention to power can help to address issues of social justice and responsibility in social-ecological interactions.

Tecnologias sociais e políticas públicas.
Provedor de dados: Informação Tecnológica em Agricultura (Infoteca-e)
Autores: SILVA, A. de S.
A Embrapa Semiárido une-se às iniciativas de melhoria contínua das técnicas, métodos e processos produtivos desenvolvidos ao longo das últimas quatro décadas para a convivência sustentável das famílias no Semiárido brasileiro. Considerando-se que a forma de uso dos recursos naturais tem ultrapassado os limites ecológicos e que, a capacidade de renovação desses recursos, a contaminação dos mananciais superficiais e subterrâneos, a degradação das terras e de sua fertilidade têm exigido a adoção de princípios modernos de conservação, por causa de suas potencialidades socioeconômicas e ecológicas. Neste contexto, apresenta-se uma proposta técnico-metodológica inovadora para implementação de políticas públicas em âmbito regional, estadual, municipal e local, em...

Provedor de dados: Research in Agricultural & Applied Economics (AgEcon Searh)
Autores: Hingley,   Martin; Mikkola,   Minna; Canavari,   Maurizio; Asioli,   Daniele.
This paper investigates the rationale for local and sustainable food systems and retailer co-operatives as their entry points within local conditions. Emphasis is on localised food networks and connection between socially as well as environmentally sustainable production, distribution and consumption. Investigated is the premise that co-operative organisational structures, for reasons of their long-term socially responsible origins are at the forefront of development of local and sustainable food systems and are thereby in a position to offer a specific contribution to market development. Two key research questions are proposed: Firstly, is there a pre-determination of co-operatives to issues of sustainable and local food sourcing given the historical and...

Corporate and Consumer Social Responsibilities: Label Regulations in the Lab
Provedor de dados: Research in Agricultural & Applied Economics (AgEcon Searh)
Autores: Etile,   Fabrice; Teyssier,   Sabrina.
Although consumer attitudes toward corporate social responsibility are positive, socially responsible (SR) products are far from gaining significant market shares. Information asymmetries have been identified as one of the factor contributing to this attitude-behaviour gap, because social responsibility is a credence attribute. Signalling may remedy this market failure. We use an experimental posted offer market to investigate the impact of various regulatory requirements for labels on sellers’ choice to supply SR products and to signal it, and on buyers’ choice of ethical quality. Three treatments are tested: label certification by a third-party, “cheap-talk signalling” with random monitoring and with or without reputations. Individual social preferences...

Provedor de dados: Research in Agricultural & Applied Economics (AgEcon Searh)
Autores: Zharkynbayeva,   Roza.
The article considers the problems of corporate social responsibility in the Republic of Kazakhstan. There are certain preconditions created for formation of corporate responsibility of businesses in the country: regulatory and legislative institutions, public-private partnership are being developed.

Corporate social responsibility is only on its way to become a systemic phenomenon of the Kazakhstan’s society and culture.

Agriculture’s Multifunctionality, Sustainability, and Social Responsibility
Provedor de dados: Research in Agricultural & Applied Economics (AgEcon Searh)
Autores: Hediger,   Werner.
We investigate the question whether the concept of corporate social responsibility (CSR) could be used to replace or complement those of multifunctionality and sustainability in the agri-food sector. It shows that the double role of citizens as tax payers and customers requests and allows us to directly link the problems of governance and stakeholder society in an intertemporal framework of total value maximisation and sustainable development. Thus, the concept of CSR provides a link between the views on agriculture’s multifunctionality and sustainability. Moreover, the fact that some actors in a vertical market, such as the agri-food chain, can exercise market power and absorb tax money and resource rents enforces the need of a broader perspective which...

Autores: Marin,   Joel Orlando Bevilaqua.
O artigo analisa estratégias adotadas por setores do agronegócio no campo das ações de responsabilidade social para erradicar a exploração do trabalho infantil no Brasil. No contexto da globalização da economia e da internacionalização dos direitos da infância, setores empresariais de cadeias produtivas do agronegócio passaram a desenvolver ações de responsabilidade social para combater o trabalho infantil, mediante a adesão aos selos sociais, assinatura de pactos e proposição de projetos sociais. As empresas vinculadas ao agronegócio aderiram a projetos de responsabilidade social empresarial em virtude da inclusão de cláusulas sociais nos mercados internacionais, da intensificação da fiscalização do poder público, bem como do compromisso na construção do...

Autores: Ferreira,   Roberto do Nascimento.
This work aims at the comprehension of the effects that the practice of the social responsibility and the corporate governance can produce over the value of a company. Social responsibility has been assuming an important role in the companies' decisions and the corporate governance, even though related to norms and legal requirements, also has a fundamental aspect in the ethical commitment. According to stock market analysts, social responsibility has become more relevant when companies are analyzed at the time an investment is being recommended. Much the same way, institutional investors have been considering social responsibility before investing. The analysis of the return supplied by the socially responsible investment funds (from the English SRI –...
