This book also offers an overview of René Girard's life and work, showing how much mimetic theory results from existential and spiritual insights into one's own mimetic entanglements.

Education and Research; References; Back coverStudies in many African countries show that charcoal making is among the primary drivers of deforestation and subsequent land degradation. In the case of Ethiopia, charcoal is produced from state-owned (public) forests and woodlands. There is little regulatory intervention from the government side. Moreover, production is more traditional and the producers have little idea that charcoal can be produced efficiently with modern technologies.
