TAX POLICY CENTER | URBAN INSTITUTE & BROOKINGS INSTITUTION EXECUTIVE SUMMARY A healthy diet is essential to a long and vibrant life. But there is increasing evidence that our diets are not as healthy as we would like. Obesity, diabetes, hypertension, and other conditions linked to what we eat and drink are major challenges globally. By some estimates, obesity alone may be responsible for almost 3 million deaths each year and some $2 trillion in medical costs and lost productivity (Dobbs et al.

  • IDENTITY and PERSUASION How Nations Remember Their Pasts and Make Their Futures
    IDENTITY AND PERSUASION How Nations Remember Their Pasts and Make Their Futures By CONSUELO CRUZ* DENTITY politics now occupies center stage. It is on explosive dis- Iplay in a wide range of settings, from Africa to the Balkans. And it is more subtly at work in the democracies of the West: NATO leaders must reexamine their own guiding principles in the face of multiple human- itarian disasters brought about by tribal, ethnic, and religious hatreds, while simultaneously dealing with increasingly heterogenous popula- tions at home and ceaseless migrant flows from east and south. It is no surprise, then, that identity should figure prominently in scholarly debates about conflict resolution, migration, citizenship, transnational alliances, democratization, nation and state building, and even globalization. Nor is it a puzzle that long-standing debates about identity should have produced the two clearly defined camps that we know as primordialists and constructivists.1 What is perplexing is the current failure to investigate systematically the complex linkages be- tween identity formation and the expressive practices of political actors. After all, we approach reality rhetorically—that is, with an intent to convince.2 This is why persuasion is the hallmark of effective leader- ship. Short of pure coercion, it is the most direct way to mobilize or paralyze a group. And this is why rhetorical power—recognized as cen- * I would like to thank Peter Hall, Jeffrey Legro, Sheri Berman, and Mehmet Tabak for their in- sightful suggestions on a previous version of this article.

  • Sustainably Sourced Junk Food? Big Food and the Challenge of Sustainable Diets • Caitlin Scott*
    Sustainably Sourced Junk Food? Big Food and the Challenge of Sustainable Diets • Caitlin Scott* Abstract Sustainable diets are an increasingly debated policy concept to address many of the environmental, social, and economic issues in the food system. The role of ultraprocessed foods in sustainable diets has received less attention than meat, dairy, and eggs but is deserving of examination given the high environmental impacts and negative health outcomes resulting from consumption of these foods. Big Food companies that make ultraprocessed foods have focused their attention on sustainable sourcing as a significant sustainability strategy. This article argues that sustainable sourcing as a central strategy for Big Food firms has implications for the achievement of sustainable diets. First, sustainable sourcing lends legitimacy to specific discourses of sustainability that align with a growth imperative. Second, it perpetuates weak and fragmented governance, which can enhance the legitimacy of Big Food when participating in coordination efforts. These dynamics of sustainable sourcing are important for consideration given the legitimacy claims of these companies, which situate them as a key part of the solution in working toward food security and sustainability. Increasing environmental pressures on the food system have made sustain- ability the focus in a variety of policy venues on the future of food. However, there is much debate on the best way forward, with diverse visions of sustain- ability that do not always align. Furthermore, exactly how to get to a sustainable food system is debated, with some advocating certifications to ensure compli- ance by companies and large agricultural operations and others advocating for a complete overhaul to small-scale, locally supported agriculture.

  • Ethics of Hacktivism by Tennille W
    Ethics of Hacktivism by Tennille W. Scott and O. Shawn Cupp Introduction Do hacktivists have ethics? Some would say yes and others suggest that no, they do not. Are there rules that those who engage in hacking follow or abide by during the conduct of their activities? Does the hacktivist maintain any semblance of actions described under the just war theory? If so, it would seem to be only in jus in bello1 or the just conduct in war, due to the perpetual nature of hacker activities and hacktivist operations. First, what is a hacktivist?2 They are defined as those who through the nonviolent use for political ends of “illegal or legally ambiguous digital tools” like website defacements, information theft, website parodies, denial-of-service attacks, virtual sit-ins, and virtual sabotage.3 This provides the basis for understanding more about where hacktivists’ motivations come from and what kinds of ideologies they may exhibit. Nevertheless, hacktivists must conform to some sort of norm. Based upon the nature of hacktivist activities, there must be a way to categorize or identify their overarching ethic. Understanding the motivation of this group is a huge undertaking because of the great variance and diversity of the people who make up the hacktivist collective. Unlike cyberterrorists, who typically belong to a hierarchical group structure and have a common cause, hacktivists are not bound in the same way, which makes them more dynamic and difficult to analyze. A prime example is the hacktivist group known as Anonymous and its spinoff group, Lulz Security (LulzSec), who eventually participated in different activities with different motives.

  • Principles for True Pricing
    PRINCIPLES FOR TRUE PRICING Consultation draft 0 Principles for True Pricing 1 PRINCIPLES FOR TRUE PRICING Consultation Draft – February 2020 Authored by True Price Foundation and Impact Economy Foundation. About True Price True Price is a social enterprise with the mission to realize sustainable products that are affordable to all by enabling consumers to see and voluntarily pay the true price of products they buy. We envision a world where all products are sold for a true price. If a product is sold for a true price, then no damage is done to people or to nature: it is fully sustainable. If all products are sold for a true price, then the global economy is sustainable. In 2012, True Price was founded and it in the subsequent years developed into world leading expert in methods and tools to measure and monetize societal impact. It calculated the true price of dozens of products around the world and saw a growing appetite for the idea among companies, governments and consumers. In 2020, we feel that the time is right to focus on realizing true pricing, a system where consumers and businesses can see, improve and voluntarily pay the true price of their products.

  • Political Support and Attitudes Toward Protest in Venezuela Damarys
    Preserving Democracy: Political Support and Attitudes Toward Protest in Venezuela Damarys Canache University of Pittsburgh Michael R. Kulisheck University of Pittsburgh Paper to be presented at the Annual Meeting of the Latin American Studies Association. Chicago, IL, September 24-26, 1998. Introduction Not long ago, Venezuela seemed to have skillfully avoided many of the problems experienced by other Latin American countries. Up until the mid-1980s, Venezuela possessed a solid petroleum- based economy and a vibrant democracy built upon inter-elite cooperation within a viable two-party system. The convergence of these factors brought political stability for almost three decades, a period quite exceptional by Latin American standards (Rey 1991). During this period, however, many issues went unresolved and many new problems were created. By the mid-1980s, the Venezuelan economy no longer enjoyed the benefits of high oil prices and the nation was deeply in debt. The government could not continue with the practice of redistributing oil rent among different sectors of the population. The economic crisis of the 1980s resulted in a dramatic turn for the worse for the people of Venezuela. Poverty increased by 32 percent between 1982 and 1989. In 1989, 22 percent of the population did not have enough resources to meet basic neeeds (Naim 1993). Questions were raised regarding whether traditional political institutions and social organizations were capable of meeting the social and political demands of Venezuelans. At the political level, debates surfaced throughout society about the effectiveness of political institutions and the failure of democratic governments to promote economic equality and growth. Multiple signs of citizens’ discontent with the political system emerged.

  • ABSTRACT the Rhetorical Construction of Hacktivism
    ABSTRACT The Rhetorical Construction of Hacktivism: Analyzing the Anonymous Care Package Heather Suzanne Woods, M.A. Thesis Chairperson: Leslie A. Hahner, Ph.D. This thesis uncovers the ways in which Anonymous, a non-hierarchical, decentralized online collective, maintains and alters the notion of hacktivism to recruit new participants and alter public perception. I employ a critical rhetorical lens to an Anonymous-produced and –disseminated artifact, the Anonymous Care Package, a collection of digital how-to files. After situating Anonymous within the broader narrative of hacking and activism, this thesis demonstrates how the Care Package can be used to constitute a hacktivist identity. Further, by extending hacktivism from its purely technological roots to a larger audience, the Anonymous Care Package lowers the barrier for participation and invites action on behalf of would-be members. Together, the contents of the Care Package help constitute an identity for Anonymous hacktivists who are then encouraged to take action as cyberactivists.

The CEO's marketing manifesto By Nirmalya Kumar In The Practice of Management, Peter Drucker wrote, “The business enterprise has two and only two basic functions: marketing and innovation. Marketing and innovation The CEO’s produce results; all the rest are costs.” Today, many CEOs of major companies are disappointed over marketing’s inability to produce measurable results. Increasingly, they view their Marketing marketing department as an expense rather than an invest- ment and fewer marketers are rising through the ranks to become CEOs. While companies unabashedly declare their Manifesto wish to get closer to customers, marketing is actually losing power to other functions in the corporation.

  • Pandemic and Protest, Revolution and Reflection: the Online Manifesto in 2020-2021’
    ‘Pandemic and Protest, Revolution and Reflection: The Online Manifesto in 2020-2021’ Julian Hanna, Tilburg University (Netherlands) & ITI/LARSyS (Portugal) Preamble Welcome to the season of our discontent. I hope this finds you well. The manifesto is the ur-genre of the avant-garde, reflecting (and often encouraging) crisis and upheaval in politics, society and the arts. The genre’s high period, what Mary Ann Caws calls the ‘manifesto moment’, happened a century ago, in the decade following the first manifesto of Italian Futurism of 1909, and there have been several waves since (Caws, xxii). Most studies of the manifesto, however, were written before 2008, and so they (largely) miss the latest wave - the digital manifesto - and the unprecedented upheaval that has accompanied this newly invigorated form between the years 2008-2021. Manifestos thrive in times like these - times of uncertainty, times of crisis, and also (because we must be hopeful) times of promise. I wrote about some of these themes in The Manifesto Handbook, which came out in February of last year, on the eve of the pandemic. The following month, Breanne Fahs’ extensive anthology Burn It Down! Feminist Manifestos for the Revolution was published. As Fahs states in her introduction: ‘we have returned again to a period of cultural reckoning .... People who once stood on the sidelines are jumping into the fray’ (3). Through mainstream social media platforms including Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube, as well as niche and alternative online spaces, the manifesto has reclaimed its function as a primary marker of history in the making. But whether analogue or digital, the manifesto has always served extremely diverse movements and ends.

  • Uk's Restrictions on Junk Food Advertising to Children
    UK’s restrictions on junk food advertising to children UK UK’S RESTRICTIONS ON JUNK FOOD ADVERTISING TO CHILDREN INTERNATIONAL LEARNING SERIES / 3 PUBLISHED JULY 2017 INTERNATIONAL LEARNING SERIES 3 / UK/ 1 UK’s restrictions on junk food advertising to children SUMMARY The UK food industry expenditure promoting ‘unhealthy’ foods for purchase in retail settings Strong evidence was more than £250 million in 2014 (Public Health England, 2015b). This is of concern from systematic to public health advocates. Strong evidence from systematic reviews has shown that the reviews has shown marketing of high fat, sugar and/or salt (HFSS) foods contributes to children’s preferences, that the marketing purchase requests and consumption patterns (Hastings et al., 2003)(Kraak & Story, 2015) of high fat, sugar The majority of foods and drinks children see advertised are HFSS – for example, and/or salt (HFSS) fast foods, soft drinks, sugar-sweetened cereals, confectionery, and savoury snacks foods contributes (Public Health England, 2015b) – while only 1.2% of broadcast advertising spend goes on to children’s promoting fresh vegetables (Food Foundation, 2016b). preferences, purchase International attention on the harmful role of marketing on children’s food preferences, requests and purchasing behaviour and consumption, and obesity and other diet-related health consumption patterns conditions has steadily built over recent decades (Swinburn et al., 2008). Much of the early evidence was presented to the UK government by its advisory body, the Food Standards Agency, in 2003 (Hastings et al., 2003). In 2016, the World Health Organisation drew on a rich and robust evidence base linking extensive and persistent marketing to children’s dietary preferences, and stated that “the settings where children and adolescents gather, and the screen-based offerings they watch, should be free of unhealthy foods and sugar sweetened beverages” (World Health Organisation, 2016).

  • A Timid Flock: Investigating Propaganda Under Stalin
    A Timid Flock: Investigating Propaganda Under Stalin By Crystal Dome, Evergreen State College Richard Pipes, former director of Harvard’s Russian Research Center, asserts in his book, Communism: A History, that “The Socialist utopia is an imaginary horizon, forever retreating the closer one approaches it.”1 In 1789, the French Revolution released the germ of a utopian ideal where humanity is reconciled with itself and in control of its destiny. In 1917, the Russian Bolsheviks felt that the October Revolution was the achievement of human liberation first announced by the French Revolution. Instead of human liberation, however, the Bolsheviks opened a Pandora’s box on one of the most significant and ultimately brutal social experiments of universal history: the First Socialist State. Through the telescopic eye of time we are capable of seeing how far this experiment strayed from its perceived utopian shores. The rise and decline of the Communist idea, its human wreckage and aftermath, has given startling weight to Karl Marx’s proclamation in the Communist Manifesto: “A specter is haunting Europe - the specter of Communism.” It was indeed a dreadful apparition, not just for Europe, but for the world. Sad and mystifying, it has bequeathed a legacy of burning questions and threadbare answers. Perhaps one of the more complex legacies is the idea of social engineering: the Bolsheviks envisioned the Soviet Union as a society that would be transformed through psychological remolding. From its conception, the Soviet regime aimed for ideological and political penetration into the private life of all Soviet citizens. Revolutionary fervor 1 Pipes, Richard.
