Interactions such as these may be quite stressful for the parent, contributing to small behavioral changes that add up to a decline in the quality of parenting (Ambert 2001).\n Thus, it is unlikely that regional and income differences between the samples account for the ethnic differences that we found regarding the association between childhood obesity and parental behavior. Given the high levels of attention accorded to obesity and widely publicized statements about an "obesity epidemic," it is possible that the gap between African American and European American parents has narrowed over time because recent public discussion has increased the salience of the issue among African American parents.

Behind the joint ownership of financial resources is the couple's adherence to the values of family collectivism and relational harmony, and this is so even when the spouses may have kept some "other incomes" in their own pockets. "Whatever the choice [spending] we make, we do it for the best interest of the family" and "We are the family!" are among the common responses from the collectivized couples. A middle-aged businessman said of his wife with gratitude: "My wife is very family orientated. A few years ago, she received a scholarship for graduate studies from a university in the U.S. Worried that I would not be able to take care of myself and our , daughter, she gave up the opportunity.... She has sacrificed so much for our family." His wife (a government official), in a separate i...

Perspectives on Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), Mining, and Sustainable Development Taking Harper's and the World Bank's positions together as representative of the current dominant view of the role of foreign direct investment in mining in Latin America, we must ask under what conditions mining activity might contribute to poverty alleviation and sustainable development. Harper points to the world-class corporate social responsibility (CSR) initiatives of Canadian mining companies, along with the Canadian government's National Roundtable report on CSR and the Extractive Sector in Developing Nations (Interview, 2007) and the World Bank's Extractive Industries Review (EIR) points to the enabling conditions of "pro-poor public and corporate governance," "effective social and envir...
