This text explores the relationship between sustainable development and development economics. Development economics since World War II has been largely concerned with how non-Western countries can attain self-generation growth and broadly based economic and social progress. The central theme of the book is the way in which the environment and sustainability can be integrated into development strategies - a theme which is increasingly regarded as essential for progress in the future. Government intervention should be designed to prevent economic activity from overwhelming environmental capacit

The Interactional Instinct explores the evolution of language from the theoretical view that language could have emerged without a biologically instantiated Universal Grammar. In the first part of the book, the authors speculate that a hominid group with a lexicon of about 600 words could combine these items to make larger meanings. Combinations that are successfully produced, comprehended, and learned become part of the language. Any combination that is incompatible with human mental capacities is abandoned. The authors argue for the emergence of language structure through interaction constra

Alexandre-Antonin Taché’s career as a pioneer Oblate missionary and bishop coincided with some of the most momentous events in western Canadian history from the Red River Insurrection to the Manitoba schools question. Taché’s zealous defense of French Catholic rights in the North West is indicative of the deep divisions in society concerning the extent of bilingualism and biculturalism in western Canada.
