ABSTRACTThe bill to create the National Agency for Technical Assistance and Rural Extension (ANATER) was approved on August 7, 2013, unanimously in the Agriculture Committee, Livestock, Supply and Rural Development of the House of Representatives. In order to extend the reach to new technologies by farmers across the country. This paper aims to summarize and critique through historical bias of the extension the creation of new ANATER through evaluation of their objectives, way of operating, administrative and future prospects for its operations. The creation of the new agency refers to the history of agricultural extension in the country. The extension goes far beyond the implementation of new production techniques and increased income and profit for the families of the field, it reaches levels structure political, economic, social and philosophical, and therefore liable to suffer various interferences and modifications, They can be either the local socio-cultural level and at the national levels. The creation of a national agency directly interferes in these variables, and should be evaluated local and individual characteristics of each region so that we can optimize and adapt correctly the extension and its sharesRESUMOO projeto de lei para a criação da Agência Nacional de Assistência Técnica e Extensão Rural (ANATER) foi aprovado no dia 7 de agosto de 2013, por unanimidade na Comissão de Agricultura, Pecuária, Abastecimento e Desenvolvimento Rural da Câmara dos Deputados. Com o objetivo de ampliar o alcance a novas tecnologias pelos produtores rurais de todo o país. Este trabalho visa sintetizar e criticar através de viés histórico da extensão rural a criação da nova ANATER por meio de avaliação dos seus objetivos, forma de atuação, organização administrativa e perspectivas futuras à sua atuação. A criação da nova agência remete ao histórico da extensão rural no país. A extensão rural vai muito além da implementação de novas técnicas de produção e aumento de renda e lucro para as famílias do campo, ela atinge níveis de estrutura política, econômica, social e filosóficas, sendo, portanto passível de sofrer variadas interferências e modificações, que podem ser tanto a nível sócio-cultural local como em níveis nacional. A criação de uma agência nacional interfere diretamente nessas variáveis, e deve ser avaliada as características locais e individuais de cada região para que se possa otimizar e adaptar de maneira correta a extensão rural e suas ações.

AbstractThis chapter focuses on the wider processes of political-economic change that drive key characteristics of fishing livelihoods. Globalisation has dramatically expanded the scale and accelerated the pace of fisheries capture and trade, generating new opportunities and challenges for livelihoods and marine environments. Here we document some of the major characteristics of the history of fishing across the Asia-Pacific, before focusing on case studies of the Philippines and PNG. We highlight three related features of globalisation that have influenced fishing livelihoods and that continue to shape them today: migration, engagement with markets and new technologies, and interactions with other forms of economic activity, including those outside the fisheries sector.

Rapid changes are occurring in the organization of production in advanced industrial societies. These changes result from new technologies, increased competition, and new production techniques. Increased training for workers has been identified as essential for remaining competitive in this rapidly changing environment. Research on the organization of work suggests that training is most likely to occur where workers are organized into internal labor markets that cultivate and retain their skills and is less likely to occur in organizations which rely on secondary labor markets. Our study of 20 manufacturing plants supports the hypothesis that approaches to training are strongly differentiated by the division between enterprises with and without internal labor markets. Training for advanced technologies and contemporary production techniques appears to grow out of existing institutionalized internal labor markets. Where such labor markets do not exist, training is less likely to occur or is superficial in nature. The effects of increased training thus do not appear to have “trickled down” into production systems employing less-skilled labor. Institutional strategies associated with a reliance on a low-wage labor force create barriers to the extension of training into new sectors of production. The effects of increased training thus may be quite localized and may serve to increase rather than diminish existing divisions in the labor force.

ABSTRACT Purpose: This paper aims to understand the configuration of strategic entrepreneurship practices of exploration, exploitation, and ambidexterity in craft breweries from Uberlândia, MG. Originality/value: Strategic entrepreneurship enables the comprehension of entrepreneurial phenomena from an organizational perspective. Furthermore, this research is conducted in an emergent industry in Brazil, with few studies in the field of management that consider the idiosyncrasies of craft breweries. Design/methodology/approach: We conducted a qualitative multicase study with three craft breweries from Uberlândia, MG. Twelve interviews were performed, and the set of empirical data collected were analyzed through narrative analysis technique. Findings: We identified several strategic entrepreneurship practices in the craft breweing sector. First, exploration practices were found in some radical innovations, such as the pioneering nature in the production of craft beers in Uberlândia, the creation of new products, and in the setting of new business models. Second, exploitation practices were also identified in incremental innovations that enabled business development. Hence, ambidexterity relied on the balance of exploration and exploitation practices, as innovative endeavors enabled the creation and development of new products and access to new markets. Thus, strategic entrepreneurship practices reflect the initiatives of entrepreneurial agents that seek to promote organizational innovations in terms of quality improvements, new production and marketing strategies, and the adoption of new technologies. Therefore, strategic entrepreneurship reflects and contributes to innovation possibilities, strategic renewals, and the competitiveness of craft breweries, revealing the analytical power of this theoretical approach for the study of entrepreneurial phenomena.

The text analyzes institutionalization of lobbying and its ties with democracy, and compares models of lobbying (pluralistic – model typical for the USA, UK, neo-corporativistic – model typical for Western Europe and Poland and the EU model). Then, lobbying is showed in the context of changes caused by the development of knowledge and information-based economy, particularly wikinomy – economy based on cooperation. The development of new technologies and the rules of global cooperation, which are the key elements of this economy, influence the creation of new lobbying strategies. This is the cause of evolution of contemporary models of lobbying in the direction of grassroots lobbying which can take different forms: from mass protests to network and internet actions. This is now called cyberlobbying and can be applied to different forms of lobbying: political, economic and social.

Sociedades del conocimiento como motor generador de tecnología e innovación agrícola en el Ecuador Knowledge societies as generator of agricultural technology and innovation in Ecuador Carmen Mayorga Villamar1 y Rogelio Suarez Mella2 1 Universidad Autónoma de Los Andes extensión Babahoyo, Babahoyo: Av. Jorge Villegas y tercera transversal 2 Universidad Tecnológica Equinoccial, Quito: Campus Matriz- Quito.Bourgeois N34-102 y Rumipamba DOI: https://doi.org/10.33017/RevECIPeru2015.0016/ Resumen El presente estudio, tiene como propósito, el análisis del aporte que producen las sociedades del conocimiento como motor generador de tecnologías e innovaciones en el sector agrícola en la República del Ecuador. Este aporte origina evoluciones en red, en el marco agrícola empresarial e individual, a través del diseño de nuevos procesos productivos y de gestión en la calidad de sus procesos, así como el rediseño de los procesos ya utilizados, que se involucran de carácter social y económico en el contexto de la agricultura ecuatoriana. Basándose en proposiciones, que las sociedades de conocimiento de alto impacto científico agrícola, contribuyen en la mejora del sector agrícola a través de la creación de nuevas tecnologías e innovaciones con características propias del sistema agrario ecuatoriano, dando el despliegue a un marco de crecimiento económico social y cultural del país ecuatoriano. Hay que determinar el término de “sociedades del conocimiento”, en uso de esta investigación, considerándolo como factor del cambio social en la expansión de la educación, y de las competencias específicas de los empleados, que se proyecta con una visión de esfuerzos educativos y formativos. Anteriormente en el Ecuador, quienes invertían en sociedades de conocimiento como fuente de investigación científica, para el proceso agrícola, eran las empresas privadas, mientras que el sector público realizaba mejoras para el sector agrícola, pero de bajo impacto, debido al alto gasto que genera los programas de desarrollo agrícola para un país, con eficiencia, control y seguimiento de los mismos. Y de los cuales pocos eran los beneficiarios, ya que los programas llegan a los grandes y medianos productores que son los propietarios de la mayor cantidad de tierra productiva en el país, dejando vulnerable a los pequeños agricultores.  Esto ha provocado que durante estos últimos años, los resultados obtenidos como contribución del desarrollo rural no hayan sido suficientes, evidenciando alto índice de pobreza y un decreciente desarrollo endógenos en los sectores agrícolas, ya que los efectos generados no han sido útiles para el campesino, productores empresariales, procesadores, comercializadores y exportadores agrícolas. Los métodos y técnicas empleadas en el presente trabajo científico, son de nivel teórico del conocimiento, tales como : histórico-lógico, inductivo-deductivo, análisis-síntesis para realizar un análisis de las sociedades del conocimiento generadoras de tecnologías e innovación en el sector agrícola ecuatoriano; entre los métodos del nivel empírico del conocimiento: la observación científica para estudiar las características fundamentales del sector agrícola y la contribución de las sociedades de conocimiento. Las técnicas a utilizar son técnicas documentales informativas y argumentativa de campo. Se puede concluir que esta investigación servirá para que las sociedades de conocimiento a través de la creación de tecnologías e innovación agrícola eleven el grado de desarrollo en las producciones, sino que contribuyan en el desarrollo industrial, para que  Ecuador se introduzca en la competencia del mercado interno y externo, apuntalándose a un creciente desarrollo económico y social. Descriptores: sociedades del conocimiento, tecnología, innovación, I+D Abstract The present study aims to analyze the contribution that produces knowledge societies as generator of technologies and innovations in the agricultural sector of the Republic of Ecuador. This contribution originates network evolutions in corporate and individual agricultural framework, through the design of new production processes and quality management processes and redesigning processes already used, which involve social and economic aspects in the context of ecuadorian agriculture. Based on propositions that knowledge societies of high scientific agricultural impact, contribute to improve the agricultural sector through the creation of new technologies and innovations directed to the ecuadorian agricultural system characteristics allowing a social, economic and growth in Ecuador. We must determine the term of "knowledge societies", in used in this research, considering it as a factor of social change in the expansion of education, and specific skills of employees, projecting a vision of educational efforts and training. Earlier in Ecuador, institutions that invested in knowledge societies as a source of scientific research to the agricultural process were private companies, while the public sector performing agricultural improvement, but low impact, due to the high cost that generates agricultural development programs for a country with efficiency, control and monitor. The beneficiaries of those programs reach the large and medium producers who are the owners of the most productive land in the country, leaving you vulnerable to small farmers. This has meant that in recent years , the results as a contribution to rural development have not been sufficient , showing high levels of poverty and decreasing endogenous development in the agricultural sectors , because the generated effects have not been useful for the farmer , corporate producers , processors, traders and agricultural exporters. The methods and techniques used in this scientific work are of theoretical knowledge, such as historical and logical, inductive-deductive, analysis-synthesis for analysis of knowledge societies generating technologies and innovation in the agricultural sector Ecuador, between the empirical methods of knowledge: scientific observation to study the fundamental characteristics of the agricultural sector and the contribution of knowledge societies. The techniques used are informative and argumentative documentary techniques of field. We conclude that this research will serve to knowledge societies through the creation of agricultural innovation technologies and raise the level of development in the productions, but contribute to industrial development, that Ecuador is introduced in market competition internal and external bracing a growing economic and social development. Keywords: knowledge societies, technology, innovation, R&D.

The article analyzes the role of the French protectorate in the development of the greening system of major cities in Vietnam. The article presents political, economic and religious facts that influenced domestic policy in the field of urban planning and landscape architecture in the period from 1858 to 1954. The French protectorate period was an important milestone in the history of Vietnamese architecture. The French made significant changes to the construction art of Vietnam with its traditional wooden architecture. They built homes using new technologies such as mansard roofs, terraces, and balconies, and also used new materials for Vietnam - cement, steel, concrete, ceramic tiles, and slate. It is shown that in the initial period of French rule in Vietnam, only European traditions were used in architecture and Park construction, and after the 1st world war, with the acquisition of a certain negative experience, they began to take into account the traditions of local construction art and the climatic conditions of the region. A significant contribution of French specialists was made in the first attempts to select types of woody plants for urban gardening that meet the requirements of safety and street hygiene. French influence in the garden culture of Vietnam shifted the vector of development of this area of activity towards Europeanization. This is especially evident in the structure of urban squares and the ways in which plants were formed according to the laws of European topiary art, which required regular planning.

Focusing on the interplay between memory and place, this article examines the rationale behind the use of axonometric drawings (axons) in a geographical research study of the Tumen/Tuman River region encompassing the borders shared by China, Russia and North Korea. The concepts of “memory of place” and “place of memory” guide the structure of this project and the flow of this article. “Memory of place” emphasises the lived experience of our physical senses, and helps determine the great potential of visual methodologies in the fields of geographical and landscape research and study. Drawn up using the graphic production techniques of abstracting, foregrounding, highlighting and juxtaposing, axons avail themselves of and inform both realist and idealist states of mind. In contrast, “place of memory” references a particular type of materiality and helps us understand Tumen Shan-shui as a library of memories that reveals a profusion of contested aesthetic, cultural and political meanings. Axons serve to tell narratives revealing desires, actions and undertakings that have shaped and continue to shape the substance of the memory sites in question including infrastructure, architecture and signage. Initially adopted by the author as a medium for recording and communicating due to security restrictions imposed in the border areas in question, the creation of axons generated new insights on methods of documentation in landscape research, and the places and landscapes themselves.
