  • Summary

    Chapter 1 introduces the reader to macro-prudential policy and exposes the reader to the problem of persistently instable financial markets, which raise the question of if and how far the macro-prudential regulatory program post-crisis had any effect. In contrast to binary paradigm shift views, which see no to little change, I introduce a multidimensional view of regulatory change that can detect massive change in the economic ideas underlying financial regulation, while pointing to the administrative and political limitations that prevent these ideas from becoming fully performative. Pointing to these contradictions, the chapter introduces the analytical framework and the main contributions of the book, followed by an outline of the different chapters.

  • The egg, larval, pupal and adult abundance of the clover root weevil Sitona lepidus Gyllenhal (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) was monitored at three sites for the first ten years following the discovery of this exotic pest in the Waikato region of New Zealand. The species went through an initial boom and bust cycle at two sites, with populations reaching up to 1800 larvae m−2. Thereafter, winter larval populations were relatively stable, ranging between 450–750 m−2. Unlike in the Northern Hemisphere, S. lepidus was found to have two generations a year in the Waikato region of New Zealand. Pasture white clover content at the time of peak adult numbers was positively related to the subsequent peak larval populations for each generation. The factors contributing to the emergence of S. lepidus as one of the most important pasture pests in New Zealand are discussed.
