In essence, the earlier components of this overall assessment process are mainly deterministic in character (albeit with some probabilistic elements), whereas the later stages are mainly probabilistic. Not all elements of the process are quantifiable (with any degree of confidence), however and the socicii-political-cultural context of any downstream decision-making process may be intensely uncertain. Such uncertainties make the process of risk communication and debate a complex and sometimes unpredictable undertaking. It is essential therefore that those elements of the risk management process that cein be objectively einalysed and evaluated (either qualitatively or quantitatively, as appropriate) are so assessed.

Hermeneutics is a field of study concerned with the interpretation of texts, either written or spoken (75). Within the context of educational research it has been defined as the process of providing a voice to individuals or groups of individuals who either cannot speak for themselves or are traditionally ignored (76). Patton (77) states that to make sense and interpret a text, it is important to know what the author wanted to communicate, to understand intended meanings, and to place documents in a historical and cultural context. ... 

The training and visit method of extension that accompanied the green revolution is, as such, not a bad system of extension, partly because there is room to include social and cultural issues. But whenever this system uses only a technical approach, promoting green revolution farming without considering the ecological, social and cultural context of rural families, the developmental effect is very limited. Or even worse, it makes farmers dependent on the fertiliser... 

The similarity between these outcomes and those from the first study, which was conducted in a Western cultural context, suggests a potential cross-cultural applicability of TCP theory. The common and notable findings of both studies are that the identified 14 motivation factors were very similar in terms of number of factors, appropriate labels, and the associated items in each factor. Furthermore, for both high and low travel career levels, novelty, escape/relax, and kinship were the most important travel motivations, while social status and isolation were the least important ones. 

Backings are usually considered to be a treatment of last resort, used only for tapas which are structurally insecure and would not be adequately supported with patch-type repairs. One problem with a complete backing is that it obscures previous repairs which may be historically significant, particularly if the repair material is tapa applied in a native cultural context.

This chapter summarizes the current knowledge of a small part of the Aztec knowledge concerning some sesqui- and diterpenes from Mexican medicinal plants. New anti-inflammatory drugs are being designed based on the mechanism of action of some of these, and other medicines are still to be developed once are able to elucidate their mechanisms. Finally, the current cultural differences produced by the use and abuse of these plants outside of their original cultural context is discussed.
