Sudan is suffering through arguably the world's worst humanitarian crisis. War in its western regions has displaced millions of people. Millions more throughout the country remain mired in chronic hunger. While staples such as wheat, sugar and corn are harder to come by due to a global shortage of food, Sudan enjoys an almost endless supply of the world's most famous soft drink which, under current U.S. trade rules, is essentially classified as food aid. This is a crisis decades in the making. And when Coca-Cola syrup can be imported to a trade-embargoed, food-starved country under rules governing humanitarian aid, clearly the world's wealthiest nations need to rethink how they manage the world's food supply.

It's avoiding the issue that will hurt our economy. Economic fears are what is helping the debate," [Stephane Dion] said in a half-hour telephone interview from his office in Ottawa last Friday. "We are in the environment where the issue is so big, so unavoidable, that I'm confident Canadians will see that for their wallet and for the planet the Green Shift that we are proposing is a good solution. "Every climate change plan needs to decrease emissions where they are," he said. The "poorly designed" Conservative plan reflects that, just as do the Liberal and NDP proposals. "And it cannot be an excuse to do nothing; to say, as long as we don't have the same amount of emissions per province, we will do nothing." When the oil companies are taxed on their profits, they call in their lawye...

A study examines accounting in a sugar refinery from 1900 to 1920 in two arenas of operation. The geography of accounting enabled the workers at Chelsea to have their working experience sequestered by the company. Accounting routinized their work at the refinery, enabling their labor to become monitored, empty of meaning, and, at times, overwhelming. The ideology of accounting provided the company with an instrument of evasion to silence the voice of labor and an instrument of self-deception designed to justify and insulate the authoritarian hierarchy of the company and the power of its Australian general manager, Edward Knox. Accounting became an ideology that sought to legitimate the exploitation of the workforce and the generous return to shareholders.
