Greggie Edited: 25-Nov-05 Member Since: 01/01/2001 Posts: 1947	Yeah, I've just started an MS. My advisor does a lot of Evolutionary Paleoecology, and I'm probably going to be working on the late Devonian mass extinction. Navin-Riverside is a crappy town to be sure, and it bums me out to no end that the Univeristy here has such a good Paleo program. Greg You have ignored this user.

I'm using the Varieties of Capitalism framework to explain variation among economic institutions in developing countries. How about you? I spent the last 3 summers there for language training and pre-dissertation research. I also lived there for a year in high-school. should be there and Malaysia for most of next year working on the Dissertation. (and some Muay Thai hopefully). You have ignored this user.

I'm studying alternatives to (mainstream) sustainable development of the "South". Kind of post-development theory, or "progressive socio-political change" through social movements and civic engagement/social capacity. I was in Thailand 02-03 (8 months) for Muay Thai. I will be back in September for a year, for work this time, hopefully with an NGO. I do a lot of work with the Burmese community here in Ottawa, and would like to potentially keep doing that over there. If you are familiar with any community/social development NGOs (is LDI still around?) feel free to share... It seems we're both working on development but from different ends ;) You have ignored this user.

jesada Edited: 01-Dec-05 Member Since: 09/23/2001 Posts: 137	Octavius, yeah, that's funny. My original dissertation topic was the impact of political institutionson on the capacities of producers to respond to the challenges posed by international labor and environmental standards...such as ISO 14000 & SA8000. Give me a hollar in Sept & we can grab a beer, I should be in Bangkok by then. joel@worldflux.com You have ignored this user.
