Special Joetsu symposium about Kuni and the world: Regional Management Organizations — linking urban and rural communities
After more than five years, I am so happy to return to Joetsu and be reunited with my co-author and collaborator, the visionary Tsuyoshi Sekihara for a special seminar to consider Kuni within the wider world. How is it that this specific experience to revive the collection of forgotten rural villages in Joetsu might have relevance outside in the wider world? We will discuss this on the eve of the book being published in Italian by Edizioni Mediterranee.

L’inizio di una silenziosa rivoluzione "verde," ma niente a che vedere con la rivoluzione verde del passato.
