Sustainable development research is inherently interdisciplinary; it requires the conscious search for unifying concepts that foster and reinforce understanding across disciplines. In addition, the number of sectors and actors involved in potential solutions requires a multistakeholder approach to decision making. The challenge of sustainable development research increasingly presents itself as a problem-solving activity. It involves producing useful knowledge through applied research. It is normative and not value-free. It involves complex issues of polity and culture. Thus, sustainable development research needs novel methods for research, for bringing together expertise that crosses disciplines and sectors, and for informing policy development. It also... |

In this paper, I address a gap in the literature on environmental social science by providing a basic rubric for the conduct of empirical research in this interdisciplinary field. Current literature displays a healthy diversity of methods and techniques, but this has also been accompanied by a lack of consistency in the way in which research in this area is done. In part this can be seen as resulting from a lack in supporting texts that would provide a basis for this consistency. Although relevant methods texts do exist, these are not written with this type of research explicitly in mind, and so translating them to this field can be awkward. This paper is designed to fill this gap and enable more consistency in the conduct of empirical environmental social... |

A cafeicultura possui grande importância social e econômica no Estado do Acre, sendo o município de Acrelândia o principal produtor, com 65,5% de toda produção. Apesar desta importância, o baixo nível tecnológico desta atividade na Amazônia Ocidental resulta em baixa produtividade com retorno econômico aquém do seu potencial. Este trabalho teve como objetivo realizar um diagnóstico sobre as práticas de manejo adotadas desde o cultivo do café até a fase final de comercialização em Acrelândia, Acre, como forma de identificar os pontos críticos que possam impactar na qualidade do produto e no sucesso da atividade cafeeira. Para isto, questionários semiestruturados foram aplicados a 82 produtores daquele município para identificação da área plantada, bem como... |
