Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The uncertainty about the future role of APEC in U. S. trade policy comes just a year before the target deadline for the first of APEC's Bogor Goals-open trade and investment among the industrialized APEC members by 2010-and two years before the United States is scheduled to host the association's annual meetings in 2011. [...] In contrast to the 2007 APEC meetings in Sydney, Australia, President Bush attended both days of the Leaders' Meeting.19 Prior to the President's arrival in Lima, the White House held a press briefing on the U. S. priorities for the APEC meetings. [...] Daniel Price, assistant to the President for international economic affairs, stated that the United States had five priorities for the APEC meetings: 1. Advancing the work of the G20 meeting in Washington on the global financial crisis; 2. Deepening regional economic integration; 3. Enhancing competitiveness of the APEC region; 4. Addressing "a range of human security needs;" and 5. Discussing the [...] First, the APEC leaders "are convinced that we can overcome this crisis in a period of 18 months." Second, the crisis "highlights the importance of ongoing financial sector reform in our economies." Third, the APEC leader "welcome" the G20's declaration and they "strongly support" the G20's "action plan." Fourth, they recognized the "critical role" of the International Monetary Fund, the World Ban [...] Sixth, they recommitted to the Bogor Goals as "a key and organizing principle and driving force for APEC." The usual joint statement issued at the completion of the Leaders' Meeting continued the focus on the global financial crisis and echoed the themes raised in the Ministerial joint statement.21 Following an introductory paragraph, the APEC Leaders write, "The current global financial crisis is.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Spanning 20 years of history, the achievements of APEC may seem uneventful in the eyes of some observers. Yet careful deliberation will point to APEC's many remarkable high points as well as some of the challenges. The foundations of APEC were set in place about 40 years ago based on the achievements of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) and the Pacific Economic Cooperation Council (PECC). One of the cornerstones of APEC's vision is to achieve a free and open trade area among its member economies. This vision is anchored in the Bogor Goals that remain the centrepiece of the APEC process. The Bogor Goals represent a cause for celebration as well as angst. Celebration because the region has moved towards achieving a much more liberalized environment of trading and investment since 1989, angst because the deadlines for achieving the goals have not yet been fully realized. Today, APEC embraces many of the world's dynamic developed and developing economies that are better poised to meet the new challenges of this century. For those seeking to get a quick sweep of APEC, this book recalls, reflects and provides enough food for thought on the possible remake of APEC. The chapters are carefully written by experts who have been directly involved in the APEC process one way or another. The invaluable insights serve to place the whole APEC process in a balanced perspective, yet with candid deliberations.

This book was released on 2011-01-01 with total page 492 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Climate change is increasingly being considered a critical topic in research and policy-making. Evidences related to climate change deal with spatial and non-spatial data, which can be utilized for policy formulation. Geoinformatics, which includes remote sensing, GIS, GPS, and ICT, provides the most relevant technology to monitor climate change-related variables at different dimensions and scales. Geoinformatics for Climate Change Studies discusses the art of using this technology for investigating, monitoring, documenting, and understanding the impacts of climate change. This book provides information on the concepts and uses of geoinformatics, and focuses on filling the gap in the available literature on the subject by bringing together concepts, theories, and experiences of experts in this field.
