“…Together, these reshape the status of the manufacturing sector and help inform understandings of the responses of local governments to the challenges their communities face. In many regards, the issues of manufacturing and local economy are heavily steeped in contemporary politicaleconomics, where the forces of the global capitalist system and globalization have reshaped the economic landscapes of Western societies through the reorganization of industrial sectors (Holmes, Rutherford, & Carey, 2017;Rutherford & Holmes, 2008), spatial fixes and the geographical reorganization of manufacturing (Hall, 2015;Harvey, 2001;Malecki, 2004), increased challenges from emerging markets (Wolfson & Frisken, 2000), and the reorientation of local and regional economies (Bradford & Wolfe, 2013;Vinodrai, 2015;Wolfe & Gertler, 2001).…”

“…From a contextual perspective, Ontario faces many of the same issues related to manufacturing as other advanced economies. The contemporary political-economic issues that have spurred on economic changethe global capitalist system, globalization and the resulting reorganization of industrial sectors, flight of large-scale firms to emerging and peripheral markets through spatial fixes, and the reorientation of local economiesare felt in both Ontario and abroad (Bradford & Wolfe, 2013;Hall, 2015;Harvey, 2001;Rutherford & Holmes, 2008;Vinodrai, 2015;Wolfe & Gertler, 2001;Wolfson & Frisken, 2000). Deindustrialization in Ontario was magnified by the gradual liberalization of trade in North America since the early 1990s (Cleave et al, 2019;Wolfe & Gertler, 2001).…”

Despite its nearly half-century decline in Western countries, manufacturing remains a vital part of local and regional economies. This importance is reflected in the economic development policies of cities, which are struggling to understand the current state of manufacturing and what they should do to either reinforce or replace it. Within the scholarship and practice, however, there is limited understanding of the policies that are adopted and whether they have potential to have a meaningful impact for the cities that adopt them. To address this gap, this research considers the way that manufacturing is contextualized and responded to within the local economic development planning documents of 47 (of 51) cities in Ontario, Canada. Through a comprehensive content analysis, it examines whether there are variations in the way cities approach manufacturing. Based on chi-square analysis, the findings show that there is considerable homogeneity in the way that cities of all sizes are approaching manufacturing, suggesting they are not adequately considering the local context in their policy, and rather focus on more general and previously adopted approaches. However, there is an emerging spatiality to the policy that was identified, which presents cities with a pathway forward to address manufacturing within their local economic development.

“…To address the challenges of the changing economic landscape, cities have been forced to adjust their approaches to local economic development (Bradford and Wolfe ). As Clark (: 3) explains:The adjustment requires a clear plan, a distinctive offer, sustained investment, strong co‐ordination of policies and programmes, and effective tools for intervention.…”

Cities are increasingly outsourcing economic development policy advisory and development to private consultants. To explore the role and influence of consultants, this study undertook a systematic examination of the economic development policy documents of 41 cities in the Province of Ontario, Canada. The findings of this study indicate that a small handful of consultants are key actors in economic development policy advisory in Ontario. The policy documents authored by consultants tend to be similar in style, scope, and language; and from a policy perspective, there is convergence of policy as cities are recommended the same economic development strategies.Sommaire : De plus en plus, les villes sous-traitent la consultation en matière de politique du développement économique à des consultants privés. Cette étude a procédé à un examen systématique des documents portant sur les politiques du développement économique de 41 villes dans la province canadienne de l'Ontario, afin d'étudier le rôle et l'influence des consultants. Nos résultats montrent que seule une petite poignée de consultants jouent un rôle clé dans l'avis en matière de politique du développement économique en Ontario. Les documents de politique rédigés par les consultants offrent de grandes similitudes pour ce qui est du style, de l'ampleur et du langage. En outre, d'un point de vue stratégique, il y a convergence de politiques, étant donné que les recommandations faites aux villes ont les mêmes stratégies de développement économique.
“…6 Data dunia menunjukkan bahwa sekitar 151 juta anak mengalami stunting dan 50 juta anak mengalami wasting pada tahun 2017. 7 Sebagai salah satu negara berkembang, Indonesia masih memiliki tantangan dalam mewujudkan ketahanan pangan dan gizi. Berdasarkan laporan Global Food Security Index tahun 2017, Indonesia berada di peringkat 69 dari 113 negara.…”

“…10 Permasalahan kekurangan gizi individu dapat diatasi dengan menjamin ketahanan pangan. 7 Saat ini perwujudan ketahanan pangan tidak hanya berfokus pada tingkat makro (nasional/wilayah) dengan memastikan ketersediaan pangan yang cukup. Wilayah yang termasuk kategori tahan pangan tidak dapat menjamin kondisi ketahanan pangan yang menyeluruh pada tingkat rumah tangga.…”
Background: Household food insecurity is a underlaying causes on undernutrition problems in children under five years. Household food security especially from food acces dimention is reflected from many indicators that are complex and easier to understand in a composite index. Objectives: The purpose of this study was to develop a index of household food security and its relationship to nutrient intake level and nutritional status in children under five years. Method: This cross-sectional study was conducted in four villages in West Bangka Regency in December 2018 until April 2019. The study involved 219 subjects consisting of mothers and children aged 12-59 months. Data were analyzed using Rank Spearman relationship test. Results: The validation results showed that the index score has a negatively correlation (p<0.01) with the proportion of food expenditure and it has a significant correlation with dietary diversity (HDDS Score). In addition, the index score was a significant correlation (p<0.01) with the level of adequacy of energy, protein, fat, calcium, iron, zinc and dietary diversity in children. The index score was a significant associated (p<0.01) with the nutritional status of children based on height for age, weight gor age, and height for wight. Conclusions: The index was developed from this study can be an alternative to evaluate the status of household food security level and stronger marker of food consumption and nutritional status of under five children.ABSTRAKLatar Belakang: Kondisi rawan pangan pada rumah tangga merupakan salah satu penyebab masalah kekurangan gizi pada anak berusia di bawah lima tahun. Ketahanan pangan rumah tangga tercermin dari banyak indikator yang kompleks dan lebih mudah dipahami dalam indeks komposit.Tujuan: Penelitian ini bertujuan mengembangkan indeks ketahanan pangan rumah tangga serta hubungannya dengan tingkat asupan gizi dan status gizi pada anak balita.Metode: Penelitian cross-sectional ini dilakukan di empat desa di Kabupaten Bangka Barat. Penelitian ini melibatkan 219 subjek yang terdiri dari anak berusia 12-59 bulan dan ibu dari anak. Data dianalis menggunakan uji beda Kruskal Wallis dan uji hubungan Rank Spearman.Hasil: Hasil validasi menunjukkan bahwa skor indeks memiliki perbedaan yang nyata (p<0,05) berdasarkan tingkat kerentanan pangan wilayah dan terdapat hubungan negatif yang kuat (p<0,05) dengan proporsi pengeluaran pangan. Selain itu, skor indeks memiliki keterkaitan yang kuat (p<0,05) dengan tingkat kecukupan energi, protein, lemak, kalsium, besi, seng serta keragaman diet pada balita. Skor indeks juga memiliki hubungan yang nyata (p<0,05) dengan nilai z-score status gizi balita berdasarkan indeks antropometri tinggi badan menurut usia, berat badan menurut umur, dan tinggi badan menurut berat badan.Kesimpulan: Indeks yang dikembangkan dari penelitian ini dapat menjadi alternatif dalam menilai status ketahanan pangan rumah tangga serta prediktor yang kuat dalam melihat gambaran konsumsi pangan dan status gizi balita.
