Recent global crises reveal an emerging pattern of causation that could increasingly characterize the birth and progress of future global crises. A conceptual framework identifies this pattern’s deep causes, intermediate processes, and ultimate outcomes. The framework shows how multiple stresses can interact within a single social-ecological system to cause a shift in that system’s behavior, how simultaneous shifts of this kind in several largely discrete social-ecological systems can interact to cause a far larger intersystemic crisis, and how such a larger crisis can then rapidly propagate across multiple system boundaries to the global scale. Case studies of the 2008-2009 financial-energy and food-energy crises illustrate the... |

The thesis researches urban-rural coordination which is incorporated into the framework of “agriculture, rural areas and farmers”, and it focuses on farmers’ human resources development, agricultural industrial adjustment, rural regional coordinated development and so on. The main problems existing in the process of coordinating urban-rural development of Chongqing City are discussed under the foregoing framework. We find that input and flow direction of capital deviating from “agriculture, rural areas and farmers” is the direct cause of insufficient rural educational input, insufficient agricultural input, and irrational rural input, while the fundamental reason lies in the irrational financial policy. Based on this, the measure of innovating upon... |
