Bennett Library Simon Fraser University Burnaby, BC, Canada Last revISIOn Summer 2007 ABSTRACT Genetic engineering as scientific practice and a package of social relations has deeply marked the global political economy. Yet, the future ofagricultural applications is uncertain. In the United States, the global leader in GE production, the industry's dominance is challenged by a growing opposition movement intent on slowing commercial introductions, increasing regulation and shifting decision-making power from biotechnology corporations to citizens. Geographers and agrifood scholars herald this movement as a critical point ofresistance to the forces of political economic change. Indeed, to the extent that activists question corporate power, neoliberalization and agricultural industrialization they can playa crucial role in determining social, economic and environmental relations within and outside the food system. However, at present, there has been little assessment ofthe significance ofcontemporary tactics, strategies and practices. This project offers the first systematic examination ofthe movement in California, a centre ofresearch and development and grassroots activism. Using case studies ofGE Free Sonoma and the Non-GMO Project, I document the history, effect and potential oforganized campaigns and the everyday practices ofrank-and-ftle volunteers. I argue that although the movement developed as a way to oppose the environmental and social injustices of neoliberalization, it also reproduces problematic social and economic cleavages and neoliberal rationalities. In the first section, I trace the development of California's GE Free movement and the implications ofGE Free Sonoma's campaign discourse. I then explore the unorganized tactics of the group's volunteers through the concept ofeveryday resistance. The discussion pays particular attention to the complexity and increasing use of consumer and market-focused activism. I argue iii that "voting with your dollar" can be a neoliberal conceit or a possible route to alternative economies. Activism simply needs to step out ofthe supermarket aisle. The second section continues this examination ofmarket tactics and assesses the consequences ofthe Non-GMO Project's proposed Non-GMO certification. After reviewing the group's history, I discuss the economic, regulatory and biological obstacles to negative labelling. Ultimately, this study is intended as both a critical challenge to activism and a resource to strengthen radical agrifood politics.

It bears the marks ofMontreal, Toronto, Santa Barbara, Vancouver, Riverside, and, ofcourse, Sonoma and Berkeley. In many ways, it was written in all these places. This project, however, is informed most by the people that saw me through the hard times and good times; the laughs, the tears and the long conversations over good (and not so good) meals. lowe an unending debt ofthanks to my informants - the members of GE Free Sonoma, the Non-GMO Project, the food manufacturers and all the other hard working activists opposing agricultural biotechnology. Without you, crucial struggles would remain unwaged. Thank you. I most thank my advisor, Geoff Mann, who gave me an academic home when I was lost, supported my intellectual endeavours and trusted me when I did not trust myself. Gwen Chapman and Paul Kingsbury completed my committee and helped me in an untold number ofways. To Gwen I must extend special thanks for bringing together such great minds to talk about food in all its dimensions and for always making me feel like part ofthe team. I must also thank Aaron Bobrow-Strain and Gerardo Otero for their helpful feedback on this manuscript. Chapter 4 ofthis work appears as "No alternative? The politics and history of Non-GMO certification" in Agriculture and Human Values (in press). Some ofthe ideas and arguments concerning the market for Non-GMO foods and reproduction of neoliberalism through activism also appear in "Shopping for change? Neoliberalizing vi activism and the limits ofeating non-GMO", Agriculture and Human Values (Volume 24, p. 511-522). Thank you to the publishers ofthese journals and the many reviewers who provided excellent feedback and comments. Over the years, many people have been sounding boards, shoulders and inspiration. First, to Stephanie Campbell, Ranae Kowalczuk, Agnieszka Leszczynski, Tanya Turk, Julia MacKenzie, Robert Humphries, Dawn Hoogeveen and Tracy Myerson, thank you for making Vancouver home and giving the University on the hill a pleasant face. You have contributed more then you know. lowe a special thanks to Julie Dillemuth, who has been with

We’re at the home of Gunther Schuller on Dudley Road in Newton Centre, Massachusetts, to do an oral history for the Smithsonian Oral History Jazz Program, if that’s the right title. Close enough? Hello Gunther. Schuller: Hello. Good to see you. Schwartz: Thank you for opening your doors to us. We should start at the beginning, or as far back to the beginning as we can go. I’d love to have you talk about your childhood, your growing up in New York, and whatever memories you have – your parents, who they are, who they were – things like that to get us started. Schuller: I was born in New York. Many people think I was born in Germany, with my German name and I speak fluent German, but I was born in New York City. My parents came over from Germany in 1923. They were not married. They didn’t know each other. They just happened to leave more or less the same time, when the inflation in Germany was so crazy that a loaf of bread cost not 40, 400, 4,000, but 4-million marks.

  • Narrative Frames and the Works of John Coltrane
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF James Bryan Duncan for the degree of Master of Arts in English presented on May 3, 1999. Title: Narrative Frames an e Works of John Coltrane. Redacted for Privacy Abstract approved: Linc Kesler In Culture and Imperialism, Said illustrates that we have no "autonomous cultural forms," but rather "impure" ones that are the products of historically "discrepant experiences." American culture has an interesting relationship with the history of imperialism. The Europeans that settled the U.S. imported slave labor to assist in the growth of the new nation and this practice ironically "hybridized" American culture despite institutionalized segregation of the races, mixing disparate cultural ideas in a common social location. Said's theory fits an analysis of jazz in America since the music was instigated by the enslavement of native Africans, West Indians and inhabitants of the Caribbean, and the tensions this produced between traditional European and non- European cultural experiences are emblematic of its evolution into a popular form of music. Concomitant to its popularity in the later 1930s was a scholarly interest in the history of ja77, which culminated in narratives ascribing to it a recognizable "American" history and a set of familiar European aesthetic characteristics, neglecting the "discrepant experiences" of jazz history. During the 1940s, some artists were working with musical ideas that expanded the innovative spaces left open by those preceding them. Criticized for playing "anti-ja77," they produced music for audiences who were late to realize the significance of their contributions. Among them was John Coltrane, a saxophonist who took these controversial approaches into unconventional musical territories.

Williams Modern breech-loading rifles flooded into Arabia and the region around the Persian Gulf between 1880 and World War I. This work examines in detail, and analyzes, the introduction of modern arms to Arabia, the origin of those arms, the trade patterns by which they were moved, and the international and local political factors that affected the 2 trade. The international arms trade was driven by three major factors. First, the rapid technological development of small arms in the nineteenth century fed the market, resulting in the availability of hundreds of thousands of obsolete military rifles for resale.
