Most analyses of public radio listening examine the performance of individual stations within this large mix, the contributions of specific national programs, or aggregate numbers for the system as a whole. This report takes a different approach. Through an extensive, multi-year study of 228 stations that generate about 80% of public radio’s audience, we review patterns of listening to groups of stations categorized by the formats that they present. We find that stations that pursue different format strategies – news, classical, jazz, AAA, and the principal combinations of these – have experienced significantly different patterns of audience growth in recent years and important differences in key audience behaviors such as loyalty and time spent listening. This quantitative study complements qualitative research that the Station Resource Group, in partnership with Public Radio Program Directors, and others have pursued on the values and benefits listeners perceive in different formats and format combinations. Key findings of The Public Radio Format Study include: • In a time of relentless news cycles and a near abandonment of news by many commercial stations, public radio’s news and information stations have seen a 55% increase in their average audience from Spring 1999 to Fall 2004. -

For centuries, it has linked the eastern and western regions of the Indian subcontinent, running from Bengal, across north India, into Peshawar, Pakistan. Horses, donkeys, and pedestrians compete with huge trucks, cars, motorcycles, rickshaws, and bicycles along the highway, a commercial route that is dotted with areas of activity right off the road: truck stops, farmer’s stands, bus stops, and all kinds of commercial activity. -

In 2008, I collaborated with colleagues and community leaders to spearhead a clothing drive in Omaha, Nebraska designed to collect and transport clothes to homeless Ethiopian youths living in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. The clothing drive involved participation of high school, college students, local businesses, state and elected officials in Omaha, Nebraska and Houston, Texas.

2020 Monthly Review Press Catalog [PDF]
MONTHLY review press 2020 The Return of Nature Socialism and Ecology John Bellamy Foster Twenty years ago, John Bellamy Foster’s Marx’s Ecol- ogy introduced a new understanding of Karl Marx’s revolutionary ecological materialism. More than simply a study of Marx, it commenced an intel- lectual and social history, encompassing thinkers from Epicurus to Darwin, who developed materi- AVAILABLE APRIL alist and ecological ideas. Now, with The Return of 672 pages | CLOTH ONLY Nature, Foster continues this narrative. In so doing, Cloth 978-1-58367-836-7 he uncovers a long history of efforts to unite issues $35.00 | £30.00 | $49.95Can of social justice and environmental sustainability that will help us comprehend and counter today’s e-book available unprecedented planetary emergencies. The Return of Nature begins with the deaths of Darwin (1882) and Marx (1883) and moves on until the rise of the ecological age in the 1960s and 1970s. Foster explores how socialist analysts and material- ist scientists of various stamps, first in Britain, then the United States, from William Morris and Freder- ick Engels, to Joseph Needham, Rachel Carson, and Stephen Jay Gould, sought to develop a dialectical naturalism, rooted in a critique of capitalism. In the process, he delivers a far-reaching and fascinating reinterpretation of the radical and socialist origins of ecology. Ultimately, what this book asks for is noth- ing short of revolution: a long, ecological revolution, aimed at making peace with the planet while meet- ing collective human needs, including those of the entire chain of human generations and life on the Earth as a whole.
