Nixon 1971: The Day the U.S. President Made the Fiat Dollar the Gold Standard — And Nobody Voted On
Nixon 1971: The Day the U.S. President Made the Fiat Dollar the Gold Standard — And Nobody Voted On Kwabena Ofori Osei 14 Views • 4 months ago

On August 15, 1971, President Richard Nixon interrupted Sunday night television to make an announcement that would quietly reshape the entire global financial system. Without a single vote in Congress, without consulting America's allies, and without any public debate, Nixon severed the last link between the U.S. dollar and gold — ending the Bretton Woods system that had governed international finance since World War II.
What followed was the birth of the fiat money era we still live in today. Inflation spiraled. Oil prices quadrupled. The petrodollar system emerged. And the rules of money changed forever — not through democratic process, but through a secret weekend meeting at Camp David attended by just fifteen men.
This is the story of how one decision, made behind closed doors, turned the dollar from a gold-backed promise into pure government decree — and why you're still paying the price for it more than fifty years later.

Globally Important Agricultural Heritage Systems – Agroforestry systems and sustainability in Africa
Globally Important Agricultural Heritage Systems – Agroforestry systems and sustainability in Africa Ambakisye-Okang Dukuzumurenyi 40 Views • 6 years ago

As part of the project “Building capacity: international advanced application course on GIAHS (globally important agricultural heritage systems)“, co-financed by the Italian Agency for Development Cooperation (AICS) and involving the Department of Agricultural, Food, Environmental and Forestry Sciences and Technologies (DAGRI) of the University of Florence as the implementing party and Polo universitario città di Prato (PIN) as a partner, a collaboration with Slow Food has come to life.

Within the framework of Terra Madre Salone del Gusto, a series of four webinars and a digital conference are planned with the Slow Food network around the world (Terra Madre delegates, Slow Food communities and convivia, producers participating in the event’s marketplace, etc.), with the aim of illustrating the objectives and potential of the FAO’s GIAHS Programme for the sustainable development of rural areas.

The principles on which the Programme is based are explained, starting with the importance of cultural conservation, biocultural diversity and traditional production systems for the preservation of the environment and landscapes. These represent a viable alternative to the intensification of agriculture. The webinar will also explain the process for applying to be part of the GIAHS Programme.

Speakers TBC

The training session is conducted in English and French.

Project implemented by DAGRI in collaboration with PIN and Slow Food, with funding from AICS and the collaboration of Horizons.

Namibia: Africa’s New Far West | Genocide, Illegal Settlements & Chinese Mafia (Documentary)
Namibia: Africa’s New Far West | Genocide, Illegal Settlements & Chinese Mafia (Documentary) Kɔrɔ Naka 87 Views • 3 years ago

⁣Namibia has the third highest levels of income inequality in the world. 6% of the population own 70% of the land and here, the wounds of German Colonisation run deep. Between 1904 -1908, the Germans established concentration camps where the indigenous Herero and Nama people were interned. Up to 80% of them died in what Germany later recognised as the first genocide of the 20th Century. While the descendants of these victims, like Karvita, live in illegal settlements in constant fear of eviction, the descendants of these colonists continue to own most of the land and have no problem justifying their inheritance.

Most of Namibia’s vast natural resources are owned or controlled by foreigners. The diamond industry is dominated by DeBeers and the ruling Swapo party, widely seen as corrupt, is propped up by its historic ally: China. The construction and uranium industries are controlled by the Chinese and documents leaked in 2021 revealed that North Korea was illegally subcontracted to build the country’s State House.

Most of the country is sparsely populated, enabling nature to flourish. It’s home to one to one of the greatest wildlife populations in the world, including the only free-roaming black rhinos. But these animals are constantly threatened by the Chinese mafia while global warming is increasing desertification, threatening indigenous communities.
