Book Synopsis Stratégies du développement durable by : Stéphane Leyens
Download or read book Stratégies du développement durable written by Stéphane Leyens and published by Presses universitaires de Namur. This book was released on 2010-06 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Deux mouvements ont contribué à l'émergence de l’idée de développement durable. Le premier a trait à la remise en question, dès la fin des années soixante, des politiques occidentales de développement au Sud. Le second exprime des craintes quant à l’impact de l’activité humaine sur l’environnement naturel. Tous deux proposent une même critique du modèle de développement compris comme croissance économique libérale: afin de tenir ses promesses, le développement économique doit aller de pair avec un souci de justice sociale globale et avec une préoccupation forte pour l’environnement naturel dans lequel tout développement humain prend place. C’est précisément cette triple contrainte que le concept de développement durable exprime et tente de faire coexister. Après vingt ans de réflexion et de projets, il apparaît que les trois exigences du développement durable ne peuvent être satisfaites également et simultanément. Au programme unifié, mais idéalisé, se substituent, dans les faits, des stratégies plus spécifiques selon les priorités accordées aux trois objectifs du développement durable. Le véritable débat concerne les stratégies les plus adéquates pour concilier nos différentes intuitions relatives au développement économique, au respect de notre environnement naturel et à la justice sociale. Ainsi, à l’heure où le projet ambitieux du développement durable est affaibli par son flou sémantique mais aussi par la multiplicité de ses acteurs, aux orientations et desseins parfois incompatibles, ce livre propose des éléments d’analyse critique de différentes stratégies de développement durable et vise à cerner les enjeux majeurs d’un projet qui, malgré ses imperfections et ses contradictions, garde toute sa légitimité d’être, et d’être pensé. Ont contribué à cet ouvrage: Christian Arnsperger, Christian Coméliau, Alexandra de Heering, Jean-Marie Harribey, Bertrand Hespel, Stéphane Leyens, Charlotte Luyckx, Xavier Thunis, Franck-Dominique Vivien et Edwin Zaccai.

Book Synopsis Développement Durable by : Philippe J. Crabbé
Download or read book Développement Durable written by Philippe J. Crabbé and published by Industrie Canada 1997.. This book was released on 1997 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After providing an historical perspective, the paper presents in a first part the three dimensions of SD and eight attributes that are common to most approaches even though these properties are variously interpreted and a common SD definition to most approaches is still elusive. This is followed by a look at the way neo-classical economics has attempted to fomalize these properties. The paper then discusses the concept of carrying capacity. In a second part, the paper examines SD at the international level from both a theoretical and institutional point of view. A third part of this paper looks at SD in an open economy. In a fourth part, the paper looks at SD at the industrial level. Finally, in a fifth part, the paper examines how external and internal factors contribute to promoting SD at the firm level.

Book Synopsis Freedom, Responsibility and Economics of the Person by : Jérôme Ballet
Download or read book Freedom, Responsibility and Economics of the Person written by Jérôme Ballet and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-07-31 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The capability approach has developed significantly since Amartya Sen was awarded the Nobel Prize in Economics in 1998. It is now recognised as being highly beneficial in the analysis of poverty and inequality, but also in the redefinition of policies aimed at improving the well-being of individuals. The approach has been applied within numerous sectors, from health and education to sustainable development, but beyond the obvious interest that it represents for the classical economics tradition, it has also encountered certain limitations. While acknowledging the undeniable progress that the approach has made in renewing the thinking on the development and well-being of a population, this book takes a critical stance. It focuses particularly on the approach’s inadequacy vis-à-vis the continental phenomenological tradition and draws conclusions about the economic analysis of development. In a more specific sense, it highlights the fact that the approach is too bound by standard economic logic, which has prevented it from taking account of a key ‘person’ dimension — namely, the ability of an individual to assume responsibility. As a result, this book advocates the notion that if the approach is used carelessly in relation to development policies, it can cause a number of pernicious effects, some of which may lead to disastrous consequences. Due to its multidisciplinary nature, this book will be of interest to those working in the fields of economics, philosophy, development studies and sociology.
Book Synopsis Governing Africa's Forests in a Globalized World by : Laura Anne German
Download or read book Governing Africa's Forests in a Globalized World written by Laura Anne German and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2009-12-01 with total page 435 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many countries around the world are engaged in decentralization processes, and most African countries face serious problems with forest governance, from benefits sharing to illegality and sustainable forest management. This book summarizes experiences to date on the extent and nature of decentralization and its outcomes - most of which suggest an underperformance of governance reforms - and explores the viability of different governance instruments in the context of weak governance and expanding commercial pressures over forests. Findings are grouped into two thematic areas: decentralization, livelihoods and sustainable forest management; and international trade, finance and forest sector governance reforms. The authors examine diverse forces shaping the forest sector, including the theory and practice of decentralization, usurpation of authority, corruption and illegality, inequitable patterns of benefits capture and expansion of international trade in timber and carbon credits, and discuss related outcomes on livelihoods, forest condition and equity. The book builds on earlier volumes exploring different dimensions of decentralization and perspectives from other world regions, and distills dimensions of forest governance that are both unique to Africa and representative of broader global patterns. The authors ground their analysis in relevant theory while drawing out implications of their findings for policy and practice.
Book Synopsis An Introduction to the African Convention on the Conservation of Nature and Natural Resources by : World Conservation Union
Download or read book An Introduction to the African Convention on the Conservation of Nature and Natural Resources written by World Conservation Union and published by IUCN. This book was released on 2009 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The African Convention on the conservation of nature and natural resources was adopted in 1968 in Algiers. Considered the most forward looking regional agreement of the time, it influenced significantly the development of environmental law in Africa. Two and a half decades of intense developments in international environmental law made it necessary to revise this treaty, update its provisions and enlarge its scope. This was undertaken under the auspices of the African Union (previously OAU), and the revision was adopted by its Heads of State and Government in July 2003 in Maputo. The introduction provides an overview of this new international treaty, as well as a commentary to each of its provisions.
Book Synopsis Tourism in Bali and the Challenge of Sustainable Development by : Sylvine Pickel-Chevalier
Download or read book Tourism in Bali and the Challenge of Sustainable Development written by Sylvine Pickel-Chevalier and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2018-01-23 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work offers a cross-analysis of the development of tourism in Bali, combining international and intercultural (from Indonesian, French, Australian and English researchers), transdisciplinary and inter-generational research. It questions the capacity of tourism, to be a vector of sustainable development, by analyzing its various social, economic and environmental effects within Balinese society. As such, it represents not only a great research tool, but a fantastic teaching aid. Each chapter comes with its own bibliography, and thus acts as a standalone case study, while making a contribution to the overall thrust of the book.
