The Future

“Crowd sourcing” is a brand new concept which has started to make wave in the field of management'. It refers to the process of outsourcing of activities to an online community or crowd in the form of an open call. Any member of the crowd can complete the assignment who will then be paid for his efforts. This phenomenon is increasingly noticed in the field of advertising where companies have started generating ideas and strategies of advertisement from crowd, for a better realistic approach. The process is speedy and is less expensive in terms of time and money. This paper is an attempt to put light on the various nuances of “crowd sourcing”, the methodologies involved and its impacts related to competitive segment of business. The success mantra of crowd sourcing is the power of crowd that drives the future of management.

Moral Claims

Typically, political consumerism is portrayed in straightforward, unproblematic ways. This chapter discusses how and why political consumerism—and particularly boycotts—can be confusing and problematic. Theoretically it focuses on moral dilemmas within political consumerism and the key role of overriding moral claims in the motivations for and actions of political consumer causes. An ideal type model, constructed for analyzing unproblematic and problematic political consumerism, is applied to cases of more unproblematic political consumerism (e.g., the Nestlé, Nike, and South African boycotts) and more problematic political consumerism (e.g., the Disney boycott and the movement against Israeli settlements in the occupied Palestine territories). The chapter also addresses why other forms of political consumerism (buycotts and discursive actions) seem less vulnerable to moral dilemmas as well as the research challenges in studying more problematic cases of political consumerism.

Significant Factors

Floods are the highest-impact natural disasters. In agricultural basins, anthropogenic features are significant factors in controlling flood and erosion. A hydrological-hydraulic-erosion diagnosis is necessary in order to choose the most relevant action zones and to make recommendations for alternative land uses and cultivation practices in order to control and reduce floods and erosion. This chapter first aims to provide an overview of the flow processes represented in the various possible choices of model structure and refinement. It then focuses on the impact of the spatial distribution and temporal variation of hydrological soil properties in farmed basins, representing their effects on the modelled water and sediment flows. Research challenges and leads are then tackled, trying to identify the conditions in which sufficient adequacy exists between site data and modelling strategies.
