Résumé:
''Growing Resistance'' is the remarkable story of how Canadian farmers led an international coalition to a major victory for the anti-GM movement by defeating the introduction of Monsanto’s genetically modified wheat. Through interviews with producers, industry organizations, and biochemical companies, Emily Eaton demonstrates how the inclusion of producer interests was integral to the coalition’s success in voicing concerns about environmental implications, international market opposition to GMOs, and the lack of transparency and democracy in Canadian biotech policy and regulation.

Résumé:
This Reader comprises sections on urban social theory, racial and social difference in the city, culture in everyday life, culture and the urban economy, globalization and transnational social relations and the regulation of urban space. Drawing together seminal selections covering the nineteenth to the twenty-first centuries, this publication includes forty-three writings from eminent names such as Simmel, Wirth, Park, Burgess, DuBois, Zukin, Sassen, and Harvey. The 2nd edition illuminates more recent urban issues such as sprawl, sustainability, immigration and urban protest. Selections are predominantly sociological, but some readings cross disciplinary boundaries.

Résumé:
Faced with environmental, social, and political precarity, what are our supports? Five artist groups inhabiting an in-between public space in downtown Vancouver offer a response to these questions. Their projects made forms of connection, self-organisation and mutual aid, friendship as a medium, and collective, critically engaged pleasure activism visible. ''What are our supports?'' looks at the frameworks artists propose in working to create change in a city rampant with urban development and regulation. It chronicles documentation from each project and presents critical essays, poetry, and reprinted texts by Leanne Betasamosake Simpson and Celine Condorelli.

Résumé:
This authoritative book offers contributions from leading practitioners and scholars presenting an assessment of the current state of conservation in the UK. In addition to tracing the developments in conservation over the past fifty years it raises concerns about the ambivalence within government towards heritage protection. It considers the need for a clear understanding of the value of architectural heritage; the importance of training; adequate funding for maintenance, and support at a local and community level. It also discusses the role of the amenity societies and provides a useful comparison of the national and regulation driven process operating in the UK with the US local and incentive driven approach.

Résumé:
In light of the recent spate of revelations detailing abuses of power within the culture sector, the March issue of "Texte zur Kunst" considers art’s relation to rules—or rather, the exceptions to them that art and its agents seem to claim. How, then, to speak of rules in the context of art, where transgressions are lauded even while traditional hierarchies continue to assert their influence? And would we demand anything less of art than the promise of disobedience, rule breaking both in terms of formal restrictions and normative regulation? Articles by Katharina Hausladen, Josephine Pryde, Christoph Menke, Lucy McKenzie, Hal Foster, Coco Fusco, and Clemens Apprich.
