Abstract	Can researchers from different disciplines, especially the natural and social sciences, work effectively together? Can they complement each other, or are they mutually incompatible, speaking contradictory, or simply different, languages? What can the various disciplines--together or separately--offer to the decision maker? Are the imperatives of research and policy so different that they cannot, and should not, be directly linked? (author) These issues were addressed at the seventh annual conference of the Norwegian Association for Development Research (NFU). This book contains the papers presented at the conference. Papers presented at the conference covered topics such as: Sustainable Development and Social Justice--Theoretical Challenges and Responses Case Study: Soil Productivity Research Program (SPRP), Northern Zambia: Ten Years of Research The Role of Social Scientists in "Changing" Agriculture Culture Change Interdisciplinarity and Environment Food Security and Nutrition Systems Farmer Research and Agroforestry Development--A Case Study from Northern Zambia Property Rights of Gene Resources.
