“…The observed behavior is related with the high concentration of ungrafted casein (90%), which is segregated inside the film. This segregated phase acts as a rigid nanofiller in the amorphous polymeric matrix, conferring a film performance similar to that of pure casein (small elongation at break and high tensile strength) [37]. Also, note that samples with high casein concentration (50-25 pphm) showed a clear yield zone at low strain (Fig.…”

I draw attention to an economic theory discovered in the 1930’s by the Canadian scholar Bernard Lonergan (1904-1984). At the time, Lonergan was unable to find an economist to read his manuscripts. Eventually, however, his results were published in For a New Political Economy (Lonergan 1998); and Macroeconomic Dynamics: An Essay in Circulation Analysis (Lonergan, 1999), volumes 21 and 15 of the Collected Works of Bernard Lonergan. Volume 21 contains almost all of Lonergan’s typewritten work on economics prior to and including the 1944 Essay in Circulation Analysis. Lonergan’s theory, however, remains largely unknown to both orthodox and heterodox economics. Within the contemporary ethos, economic models typically are remote from actual economic activities in cities, towns and people’s lives. Lonergan’s theory, by contrast, begins with economic activities. It builds on a key observation that there are not just “firms and households” but two functionally distinct types of firm. Businesses can and often do function in both ways, depending on transactions. Orthodox economics has been causing great damage to world cultures and ecosystems. Attempts to merely adjust mainstream models have proven ineffective. Within heterodox economics there has been a growing interest in finding a viable alternative. This paper gives a brief introduction to the alternative provided by Bernard Lonergan’s two-flow theory. It is a theory that will ground the possibility of effective and humane strategies for local and global economies. Elements of this paper were originally presented at the International Confederation of Associations for Pluralism in Economics (ICAPE), January 4th, 2018, Drexel University in Philadelphia.

“…For casein-based materials the most common plasticisers are polyols, sugars or starches owing to their miscibility with the protein and their ability to enhance elasticity and flexibility [6,7,69,[134][135][136]. Figure 1 shows a typical stress-strain curve obtained from a tensile test of a plasticised caseinate film and the derived mechanical properties (Tab.…”

-Milk contains a lot of different components with their own functional properties and some of them, such as casein, have been used in the manufacture of non-food technical products for many years. The present review deals with the non-food applications of (i) the major individual components of milk: proteins (casein; soluble proteins); lactose; milk fat and (ii) whey, a co-product of cheese and casein manufacture. New applications of milk proteins on a laboratory scale are focused on the manufacture of protein-based films and biomaterials. Also, fermentation of lactose and whey provides low molecular weight compounds and exopolysaccharides. These promising routes for giving added value to dairy co-products and effluents should be applied to achieving a great reduction in dairy industry wastes.Non-food application / casein / lactose / whey / whey protein / milk fat / fermentation Résumé -Applications non-alimentaires des constituants du lait et des coproduits de l'industrie laitière : revue. Le lait est composé de différents constituants présentant chacun des propriétés fonctionnelles caractéristiques et ayant été valorisés dans le domaine non-alimentaire depuis de nombreuses années. L'objectif de cet article est de passer en revue ces applications nonalimentaires pour (i) les constituants individuels majoritaires du lait pris séparément à savoir : protéines (caséines ; protéines solubles), lactose, matière grasse ; et (ii) le lactosérum, co-produit de la transformation du lait en fromage ou en caséine. La fabrication de films et de biomatériaux à base de protéines apparaît comme l'une des applications les plus récentes et les plus attractives. D'autre part, la fermentation du lactose et/ou du lactosérum permet d'obtenir une grande variété de composés de faible masse molaire ainsi que des exopolysaccharides eux-mêmes valorisables. La variété des applications non-alimentaires répertoriées permet d'envisager différentes voies de valorisation pour les co-produits et les effluents de l'industrie laitière dans l'objectif de réduire au maximum les rejets.
