  • Scarica La Carta Dei Te
    Le proposte di namasTèy Carta dei Tè puri Stagione 2018-2019 namasTèy – Via della Palombella 26 – 00186 Roma – 06 68135660 – www.namastey.it Le proposte di namasTèy Premessa Per gli appassionati dei tè puri, abbiamo pensato di raccogliere in un unico elenco sia le referenze che abitualmente trovate da namasTèy, che la preziosa selezione che con dovizia, ed infiniti assaggi, faccio regolarmente durante le mie trasferte nel lontano Oriente: un labirinto infinito di tentazioni e prelibatezze, dove perdersi è facilissimo, ma è anche un vero piacere! Le mie esplorazioni sono cominciate in Cina (ormai già diversi anni fa); la mia dichiarata passione per i tè cinesi mi porta ogni anno a ripercorrere e a scoprire nuove vie: è per questo che la selezione dei tè più pregiati non può essere garantita da una stagione all’altra, e anche nell’ambito della stessa stagione non posso assicurare un approvvigionamento costante. Recentemente ho esteso i miei orizzonti valicando anche le porte dell’impero del Sol Levante… questa preziosa carta si è così arricchita di selezionatissimi e freschissimi raccolti di tè giapponesi. ------- ° ------- Note sulla Preparazione Tutti i tè proposti in questa carta necessitano di un po’ di attenzione, in special modo quelli selezionati in loco, visto anche l’impegno, la cura e l’amore riposti nel procurarli e farli giungere intatti qui per i nostri momenti più speciali della giornata. La prima cosa da sapere è che si tratta di tè che possono essere infusi ripetutamente, anzi è in questa pratica che esprimono il massimo del loro potenziale e della loro curva aromatica.

  • Contemporary Agricultural Co-Operatives in China
    Contemporary Agricultural Co-operatives in China: A Multi-case Comparison of Tea Co-operatives and Their Supply Chains Submitted by Hao Dong To University of Exeter For the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Management Studies May 2019 This thesis is available for Library use on the understanding that it is copyright material and that no quotation from the thesis may be published without proper acknowledgement. I certify that all material in this thesis which is not my own work has been identified and that any material that has previously been submitted and approved for the award of a degree by this or any other University has been acknowledged. (Signature) .......................................................................................... 1 Abstract This research generates insights into the rapid multiplication of agricultural co- operatives in Mainland China before and after the introduction of China’s first law on agricultural co-operatives in 2007. More specifically, the research utilises a multiple-case research method to explore the specific context of small- scale tea co-operatives and their supply chains. The research has several objectives. First, to explore how the values of co-operatives conform to Chinese society and culture. Second, to develop a typology of Chinese co- operatives based upon data collected for the tea co-operative industry. Third, to analyse the relationships among the membership of different types of co- operatives to determine if they result in different operational performance. Fourth, to explore how internal factors affect the power dynamics between a co- operative and its stakeholders. The data informing this research was generated through semi-structured qualitative interviews. Triangulation is achieved through the analysis of documentary sources and the researcher’s observations (including participation in tea production).

  • “PROFITS of NATURE”: the POLITICAL ECOLOGY of AGRARIAN EXPANSION in a NINETEENTH-CENTURY CHINESE BORDERLAND a Dissertation
    “PROFITS OF NATURE”: THE POLITICAL ECOLOGY OF AGRARIAN EXPANSION IN A NINETEENTH-CENTURY CHINESE BORDERLAND A Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Peter Bernard Lavelle May 2012 © 2012 Peter Bernard Lavelle “PROFITS OF NATURE”: THE POLITICAL ECOLOGY OF AGRARIAN EXPANSION IN A NINETEENTH-CENTURY CHINESE BORDERLAND Peter Bernard Lavelle, Ph.D. Cornell University 2012 This dissertation reinterprets the history of the relationship between late Qing China and its Central Asian frontiers by examining the politics of the environment in the nineteenth century. Following the Muslim uprisings of the 1860s and 1870s in northwest China, officials of the Qing empire promoted the recovery and expansion of agricultural production. Their policies were framed by notions of natural profit, by their knowledge of agrarian technology, and by their concerns over the demographic and ecological crises of China proper. Scholar-officials sought to reap what they called the “profits of nature”—profits they believed to be intrinsic to specific arrangements of land, organisms, and labor—by deploying their knowledge of agriculture and by implementing policies of agrarian development. In arid landscapes inhabited largely by Turkic and Chinese Muslims, they replicated patterns of agricultural production from southern provinces of China, promoted the cultivation of crops imported from beyond local ecological boundaries, and facilitated Han colonization. These efforts were attempts to forge new, if sometimes subtle, environmental and demographic connections between China proper and the northwest frontiers. Based upon a wide range of published sources and archival documents from Beijing and Urumqi, this dissertation examines the intellectual background and agrarian practices of Zuo Zongtang (1812-1885), the leading agent of Qing agrarian expansion in the northwest in the late nineteenth century.
