Dear all,
Please find below an announcement on a webinar series.

Agrarian Conversations webinar series: episode 2 Global food regimes and China Wednesday, 28 April 2021, 15:00-16:30 Amsterdam (CET) The second episode in Agrarian Conversations webinar series will be on "Global food regimes and China". What relationship does China have to current food regime transitioning, with the changing geographies of production, circulation and consumption of global food commodities, and the growing significance of agroecological farming? Does China’s deepening international presence portend a new form of food regime hegemony? And what might that look like? If so, what are the implications of such changing dynamics for local, national, and international political struggles for a fairer and kinder agro-food system?
The webinar will be in English, Spanish, French and Mandarin. The webinar has a conversational format: initial short inputs from the speakers and panelists, followed by a much longer plenary Q&A. To allow for a dynamic conversational format, we provide a background paper for the webinar that we hope participants will be able to read before the event. For this episode, the (free access) background paper is: McMichael, P. (2020). Does China's ‘going out’ strategy prefigure a new food regime?. Journal of Peasant Studies, 47(1), 116-154. Speakers & panelists: Philip McMichael, Cornell University, USA Yan Hairong, The Hong Kong Polytechnic University Paul Nicholson, La Via Campesina Refiloe Joala, PLAAS, South Africa Andrea P. Sosa Varrotti, Universidad Nacional de San Martin, Argentina Carol Hernandez, National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM) Co:Chairs: Ruth Hall, PLAAS; Katie Sandwell, TNI. Please register here.

For the price we paid, this is one of the best karaoke machines for home. The sound quality is pretty good. The build of the speaker itself is quite sturdy and durable. Its Bluetooth range is pretty decent; we could control the music from different rooms! The little remote control is hence very helpful .
This best at home karaoke machines on smartenmyhome machine with wireless microphone is very affordable! The microphone may not be the best quality but for the price, it’s more than what we asked for. For small gatherings and home use, this home karaoke system setup served well! However, it is not a karaoke machine that records, unlike many others.
