  • Value Chain Analysis for Processed Fruits from Burkina Faso, Mali and Ivory Coast
    CBI Ministry of Foreign Affairs Value Chain Analysis for Processed Fruits from Burkina Faso, Mali and Ivory Coast Commissioned by The Centre for the Promotion of Imports from developing countries (CBI) Agri-Logic August 2019 Value Chain Analysis for Processed Fruits from Burkina Faso, Mali and Ivory Coast Value Chain Analysis for CBI Final edited version 12 August 2019 Prepared by: Herma Mulder Sanne Steemers Jean Bosco Dibouloni Jacques Tamini Mohamed Ali Niang 1 Executive summary Background and scope This value chain analysis was commissioned by CBI (Centre for the Promotion of Imports from developing countries) in order to identify the most promising product market combinations for processed fruit from Burkina Faso, Côte d’Ivoire and Mali. Export market competitiveness While tropical dried fruits and tropical frozen fruits are still relatively small compared to the total processed fruit market size, we see that tropical fruits are gaining market share from native European fruits. Preserved fruits (mainly canned pineapple), fruit juices, concentrates (for juices) and coconut oil are larger markets, but they are stable or in some cases declining. Purées for the baby food segment and coconut derivatives other than coconut oil are interesting growth segments when the high quality and food safety standards required are achieved. For all processed fruits market segments, the same countries appear as trade hubs for the European market: The United Kingdom, The Netherlands, Germany, France, Belgium and Italy. Market trends provide opportunities and threats for the development of a processed fruits segment. Consumer demands for healthy and sustainable products are increasing. The shift in consumer dietary patterns and the growing vegan population is expected to drive the growth of the processed fruit market.

  • A Christmas Carol
    OLNEY THEATRE CENTER STREAMING ONLINE BY CHARLES DICKENS ADAPTED AND PERFORMED BY PAUL MORELLA A NOTE FROM JASON AND DEBBIE Dear Friend of Olney Theatre Center, No matter who we are or where we come from, traditions unite us and allow us to celebrate the best of ourselves and our community. That’s why in a year where so many traditions have been placed on pause, we felt it especially important to create this streaming version of Paul Morella’s solo A Christmas Carol. In a normal year, the Olney Theatre campus would be buzzing right now with activity —a big musical on our Mainstage bringing together multiple generations to create memories; in our Historic Theatre young audiences and performers in the Olney Ballet Theater’s Nutcracker would be getting their first taste of a Christmas classic; and of course, in the Mulitz-Gudelsky Theatre Lab, audience members would be personally welcomed into Dickens’s tale by Paul Morella in our most intimate (and now, newly renovated!) theatre space. We held out hope that we would be able to produce A Christmas Carol as it was meant to be experienced, live, if only for a small, masked, audience in a large, mostly empty theatre. It was not to be, but through the talent and hard work of a small and dedicated team, observing strict COVID-19 protocols, this streaming performance gives us a small triumph over some of what has been lost this year. We’re particularly grateful to Senior Associate Artistic Director Jason King Jones and Digital Brand Journalist Emily Jerison for their amazing work translating the show to this digital format.

Deposit Guide Contact: email Birkbeck, University of London Delirious USA: The Representation of Capital in the Fiction of Don DeLillo Thomas William Lynn Travers Submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy 2019 1 Declaration I, Thomas William Lynn Travers, declare that this thesis is my own work. Where I have drawn upon the work of other researchers, this has been fully acknowledged. 2 Abstract In this thesis I offer a new reading of Don DeLillo’s fiction through an engagement with contemporary Marxist literary theory and political economy. Beginning in the 1960s, the thesis traces the launch, expansion, and shattering of DeLillo’s narrative apparatus as it recomposes itself across the genres of the short story, the conspiratorial thriller, the historical novel, and the novel of time. Developing on theories of the novel as a capitalist epic, the thesis takes the insistent appearance of surplus populations in DeLillo’s work as an opportunity to reflect on, but also to revise and reconceptualise, Marxist accounts of the novel and its philosophy of history.
