INTRODUCTION Debates over global terrorism, the spread of weapons of mass destruction, the legitimacy of the use of force, and the role of the United States all demonstrate that we have entered a period of rapid change in the international security environment. While Ottawa is not one of the world's major cities, nor one of Canada's dominant intellectual centres, its role as the capital of a G-8 country, its two universities (one, the University of Ottawa, with a strong tradition in international law, the other, Carieton University, with an outstanding graduate school of international affairs), the presence of a robust NGO community and several research institutions active on international relations, such as the International Development Research Centre and the North-South Institute, p...

A major debate neglected by accounting historians is the importance of landlords in the English agricultural revolution. Accounting evidence from the historical literature is used to test Marx's theory that, from around 1750, England's landlords played a pivotal role by adopting and then spreading the capitalist mentality and social relations by enclosures and changes in the management of their estates and tenants. It gives an accounting interpretation of Marx's theory of rent and argues that the available evidence supports his view that the conversion of English landlords to capitalism underlay the later stages of the agricultural revolution. The conclusion explains the linkages in Marx's theory between the agricultural and industrial revolutions and calls on accounting historians to c...

It began to phase out the program in 2008. In the end, it wasn't the financial cost that prompted the program's abandonment; it was because of something much more precious -- water. Every tonne of wheat produced was removing 1,300 to 1,500 cubic metres of water from the underground aquifer, which is that country's main source of fresh water.
History is rife with tales of foreign entrepreneurs cloaked in a flag moving in to gain control of foreign turf. So in that sense, this is nothing new. In fact, Manitoba farmland has been sheltered from this type of foreign investment since 1984, due to legislation curbing foreign purchases of farmland as a speculative investment. But while the land in this province is protected from the foreign land grab, farmers here aren't immune to its effects. ...
