This volume brings together a group of authors who share a common
concern with the effects of globalization on the South. Included
among these effects is the accelerating erosion of the social,
economic and political significance of the territorial distinction
on which the terms South and North are founded. The authors' aim is
explicit: to offer a unique perspective on globalization which
places the transformation of the South and the renewed global
organization of inequality at the heart of our understanding of the
global order.

In Global Trade and Social Issues leading academics and NGO workers offer a much-needed counterweight to the liberal consensus. A critical reflection on the whole project of restructuring world trade, this is essential reading for those working in international political economy, development studies, international relations and environmental studies.
Images of famine, debt, economic stagnation and decay in the South,
coupled with an uneasy acknowledgement of the interdependence of
military and economic security, demand an urgent re-evaluation of
the security relations between the South and North. In this 1989
volume, thirteen distinguished contributors address the central
problem of competing conceptions of security. Security debates
invariably give priority and prominence to the position of the West
within an East/West equation. This work redresses this imbalance by
highlighting the concerns and priorities of the developing states
in the South/North dimensions at this time. Each of the six
thematic parts comprises two contrasting treatments; one from the
Third World perspective and the other from the viewpoint of the
industrialised North. This book will be of use to students and
policy makers as well as specialists of specific issues such as
debt and political violence.

The purpose of this project was to pilot test a peer-reviewed,
long-term pika monitoring protocol for the American pika (Ochotona
princeps) in Glacier National Park. The pika is a climate-sensitive
species and this effort provided new information on the
distribution, survey methodologies, and habitat associations of the
species in the park. In particular, this project established
long-term monitoring sites to estimate the proportion of sample
sites occupied by pikas and assessed detectability of pika using
both direct and indirect evidence of pika presence (via visuals,
aurals, scat, and haypiles) for observers with various levels of
experience and training. The authors with the Crown of the
Continent Research Learning Center Citizen Science Program to
evaluate the feasibility and effectiveness of citizen scientists in
protocol implementation.
