The methodological implications of such a project would be similar to the scientific frame at the Kenya Medical Research Institute, which considers the ethics of biomedical research in the contexts of sub-Saharan Africa and transnational research as a central process for the acceptability and validity of the global scientific enterprise in poor communities.
Comer's books include Black Child Care (with Alvin Poussaint, 1975), School Power: Implications of an Intervention Project (1980), the autobiographical Maggie's American Dream: The Life and Times of a Black Family (1988), and Leave No Child Behind: Preparing Today's Youth for Tomorrow's World (2004).
This attention can come through more forethought on the implications of their project as a traveling technology, more research on the various elements involved in the project, such as ICT systems, and more funding allocated to project leadership and project leadership development during the development and early implementation phases of the project.
At an October 1988 news conference called to announce his appointment, Watson, in an apparently off-the-cuff response to a reporter who asked about the social implications of the project, promised that a portion of the funding would be set aside to study such issues (Marshall 1996c).
That's not a huge number of people, but the implications of this project are wider than that.
But either through desperation at the scale of the environmental crisis, or in ignorance of the political implications of the project, many are going along with this first step of putting a price on nature.
The paper concludes with a discussion of next steps in the research and possible implications of this project.
But many feel the implications of the project could go further, and both public- and private-sector interests are keeping a close eye on its findings.
As Lane pores through the materials at hand, she herself watches the scope and implications of the project expand into astonishing realms of power and influence.
