The abstracts report condensed information from journal articles, booklets,, mimeographed reports, theses, manuals and other conventional and nonconventional material, categorized into broad disciplinary fields to facilitate rapid scanning. Adaitionally, abstracts are author ind subject indexed to enable more compre­ hensive consultation. When retrospective or exhaustive coverage of a topic is desired, mechanized bibliographic searches of the entire document col­ lection can be provided by CIAT's Documentation Center. Abstracts of all articles that match the topic of interest are provided to users who request this search service. The full text of every article abstracted by the Documentation Center is also available, through the photocopy service. CIAT's Documentation Center also publishes journals of analyti­ cal abstracts on field beans (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) grown under tropical conditions and on tropical pastures. Other CIAT publi­ cations dedicated to keeping users aware of research developments in their respective fields include: Pages of Contents, Cassava Newsletter, Pastos Tropicales - Boletfn Informativo, and Hojas de Frfjol. iii COMPONENTS OF AN ABSTRACT Sequential number in the journal (for Year of Authors use of indexes) publication Accesion I number [ 10145 (for photocopy' 1 9 5 2 7 IKEDIOBI, C.O.; OMIKE, E. 1982.

    Daria V. Konior Institute for Linguistic Studies (Russian Academy of Sciences), Saint Petersburg, Russia E-mail: [email protected] Patterns and mechanisms of lexical change in symbiotic communities: the case of Carașova and Iabalcea (Banat, Romania) The historical region of Banat is known as one of the most diverse multilingual areas on the map of Europe. It has become a true mosaic of multiethnic and multilingual communities mainly due to numerous waves of migrations (first of all, arrival of the Slavic tribes to the Balkans, which started between 5th or 6th centuries), but also due to colonization policy of Habsburg administration. It resulted in mixing of different nations (Romanians, Hungarians, Germans, Serbs, Gypsies, Ukrainians, Bulgarians, Slovaks, Jews, Czechs, Croats, etc.) on a limited territory. One of the most interesting (sometimes even reffered to as “mysterious”) communities of Banat is the Catholic Christian population of the Karashevo microregion in Romania. There, the Krashovani Slavic dialect belonging to the Torlak dialect of Serbo-Croatian language is spoken in the village of Carașova, and the Krashovani Romanian dialect belonging to Banat Romanian continuum is spoken in the village of Iabalcea. This ethnolinguistic situation can be described not just as an intimate language contact, but as a symbiotic interaction, considering that Krashovani from these two villages share religion, identity and traditional values, but use different languages in their everyday communication. Our research focuses on the ways in which lexical and cultural codes interact in this community in 21th century. In order to explore this interaction, I examined the vocabulary of the traditional Krashovani wedding using a specifically elaborated bilingual questionnaire during my fieldwork in the microregion.

Georg-August-Universität Göttingen, Tropical and International Agriculture, Germany; 2. Georg-August-Universität Göttingen, Department of Agricultural Economics and Rural Development, Germany; 3. Georg-August-Universität Göttingen, Department of Agricultural Economics and Rural Development, Germany Introduction . Reducing poverty has become an essential part of the Millennium Development Goals (MDG) and need to achieve. Microenterprises (MEs) have played an important role in rural developmental activities and were long recognized as vital in poverty alleviation in Indonesia. The developing world has in fact led the way in promoting the importance of rural finance. Access to commercial services is restricted in rural areas and the services can not meet the demand for financial services by rural households. Many microenterprises belong to poor and they are unable to provide collateral. Objectives Credit Limit There were two objectives formulated in this research: . In Indonesia, the official definition of microcredit covers all loans under IDR 50 million 1. To provide a review for the gap between the number of microenterprises (approximately US$5,500). being assisted and the overall number who might need assistance. Only seven percent of microenterprises have credit limit above IDR 50 million (Figure 4). 2. To determine effect of determinant factors which were found in research Figure 4.

From the 70’s, this design became consolidated in Brazil and other countries because of policies and strategies by states and private groups. However, some doubts has been raised on its environmental and socioeconomic issues, in special for family farming. This study aimed to contribute by identifying changes and resistance in agricultural structures, systems and demographic aspects of this model and its adoption by farmers. It was carried out in the state of Paraná – Brazil, within the microregion of Toledo and in the northern pioneer area, which represent the history and diversity of this state about socioeconomic and human aspects, as well as technical development.

    land Editorial Central Place Theory Reloaded and Revised: Political Economy and Landscape Dynamics in the Longue Durée Athanasios K. Vionis * and Giorgos Papantoniou * Department of History and Archaeology, University of Cyprus, P.O. Box 20537, 1678 Nicosia, Cyprus * Correspondence: [email protected] (A.K.V.); [email protected] (G.P.) Received: 12 February 2019; Accepted: 18 February 2019; Published: 21 February 2019 1. Introduction The aim of this contribution is to introduce the topic of this volume and briefly measure the evolution and applicability of central place theory in previous and contemporary archaeological practice and thought. Thus, one needs to rethink and reevaluate central place theory in light of contemporary developments in landscape archaeology, by bringing together ‘central places’ and ‘un-central landscapes’ and by grasping diachronically upon the complex relation between town and country, as shaped by political economies and the availability of natural resources. It is true that 85 years after the publication of Walter Christaller’s seminal monograph Die zentralen Orte in Süddeutschland [1], the significance of his theory has been appreciated, modified, elaborated, recycled, criticised, rejected and revised several times. As Peter Taylor and his collaborators [2] (p. 2803) have noted, “nobody has a good word to say about the theory”, while “the influence of a theory is not to be measured purely in terms of its overt applications”. Originally set forth by a German geographer, central place theory, once described as geography’s “finest intellectual product” [3] (p. 129), sought to identify and explicate the number, size, distribution and functional composition of retailing and service centres or ‘central places’ in a microeconomic world [4] (p.

References 88 r.10.7 Index to 92 ABSTRACT About 100 commercially important timber species are being extracted from the natural forests in Kerala and stored in depots. The stored timber is often attacked by borers belonging to the insect order Coleoptera. In the present survey, about 53 species of beetles were recorded as pests of one or more of 46 species of stored timber. These belong to the families, Cerambycidae, Bostrychidae, Lyctidae, Platypodidae, Scolytidae, Curculioni- dae and Anthribidae. The major cerambycid borers collected in this study were, Batocera rufomaculata (attacking Bombax ceiba, Ceiba pentandra, Manoifera indica and Syzygium cumini) ; Olenecamptus bilobus (attacking Artocarpus hirsutus and Lagerstroemia microcarpa) and Xystrocera globosa (attacking Albizia odoratissima). They generally attack the sapwood as well as heartwood of freshlv felled timber with intact bark. Borers belonging to the other families are small in size but often cause considerable economic loss. They generally attack the sapwood. Maximum damage is caused to the low density timbers having marked sapwood portion. Finished products such as match veneers, plywoods, packing case boards, brush-handles, bobbins, photo-frames.
