دانلود کتاب اقتصاد و سیاست کشاورزی و منابع مدرن

The half-century between 1970 and 2020 has witnessed fundamental political, environmental, and agricultural changes. These include the fall of the Soviet Union, the emergence of China, the formation of the Eurozone, the computer age and the internet, the environmental movement, the growing concern about climate change, the emergence of modern biotechnology, and several severe pandemics. These global changes contributed to the intensification and emergence of new approaches to economic research, especially the economics of agriculture and natural resources. These changes include the intensification of data availability and analysis; an increased reliance on experimentation; the introduction of large-scale simulations of the economy and the environment; and the emergence of environmental economics, behavioral economics, and political economics. These new tools strengthened the role of economic analysis in policymaking and intensified the use of and automated financial markets. Gordon Rausser was in the thick of many of these transitions of agricultural and resource economics and financial systems. Playing multiple roles, including professor, dean, policy advisor, and businessman, he has impacted the agenda of agricultural economics and multiple institutions and policies.
