Book Synopsis The Economics of Offsets by : Stephen Martin
Download or read book The Economics of Offsets written by Stephen Martin and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-07-16 with total page 434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite their growth, outlined and analysed in this book, the claims and counter-claims that surround offsets have not been subjected to critical scrutiny by economists. This book fills that gap. It brings together a team of internationally renowned specialists to document and evaluate the economic impact of several countries' offset policies. In addition, the papers by industrialists and defence officials yield further insights which help to tease out which of the claims made for offsets do not stand critical scrutiny.

Book Synopsis Trends and Challenges in Aerospace Offsets by : National Research Council
Download or read book Trends and Challenges in Aerospace Offsets written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 1999-04-03 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The granting of offsets to promote exports of major aircraft systems has been a source of significant controversy. Critics believe that offsets undermine the U.S. manufacturing base; lead to the transfer of commercial technology, possibly affecting national security; and result in the loss of high-wage jobs. Defenders of the practice argue that offsets are a fact of commercial life and can result in net U.S. job gains. In an effort to focus the offsets debate on analytical issues, the White House National Economic Council asked the National Research Council to convene expert academicians, representatives from the aerospace industry, and top government officials to discuss the impact of offsets on the U.S. economy. To ensure a rigorous discussion encompassing all points of view, the conference included a series of papers outlining the positions of key participants. This resulting volume offers a comprehensive and up-to-date analysis of the impact of aerospace offsets.

Book Synopsis Defence Offsets and the Global Arms Trade by : Jonata Anicetti
Download or read book Defence Offsets and the Global Arms Trade written by Jonata Anicetti and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-02-06 with total page 179 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers the first comprehensive study of defence offsets and its economic, security, political and theoretical implications. Originating in the second half of the 19th century, defence offsets - additional economic, industrial and technological benefits to states for buying foreign weapons - have since been a key feature of the global arms trade and defence industry. And yet, offsets are an under-researched and under-theorised phenomenon. This book fills this gap in the literature by offering the first general theory of defence offsets, as well as the first systematic analysis of the offset phenomenon. By building on the insights of scholars of defence economics and drawing from the International Relations liberal paradigm, as well as reviving and adapting Robert Putnam’s two-level game framework, the book proposes a liberal-rationalist theory of defence offsets. It then proves the worth of such a theory through Qualitative Comparative Analysis (QCA) of fifty-four fighter aircraft transfers from 1992 to 2021 inclusive, and three in-depth case studies addressing offsets negotiated and agreed to as part of fighter aircraft competitions in Brazil, India, and South Korea. This book will be of interest to students of defence studies, defence economics, security studies and international relations.

Book Synopsis Biodiversity Offsets by : Wolfgang Wende
Download or read book Biodiversity Offsets written by Wolfgang Wende and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-03-07 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book deals with the new concept of biodiversity offsets. The aim of offsetting schemes is to achieve no let loss or even net gain of biodiversity. Offsets obey a mitigation hierarchy and reflect the precautionary and polluter-pays principle in regard to project impacts. Readers gain insights into current debates on biodiversity policies, with top experts outlining theoretical principles and the latest research findings. At the same time the focus is on practical application and case studies. Today there is a lively international discussion among practitioners and scientists on the optimal legal framework, metrics and design of habitat banks to ensure the success of biodiversity offsets and to minimise the risks of failure or misuse. Contributing to the debate, this volume presents the activities and practices of biodiversity offsetting already implemented in Europe in selected EU member states, and the lessons that can be learnt from them. Readers may be surprised at how much experience already exists in these countries. A further aim of the book is to offer grounded insights on the road ahead, and foster a more intensive and fruitful discussion on how offsetting can be extended and improved upon, so that it becomes a key and effective component of Europe’s biodiversity conservation policy framework.

Book Synopsis Biodiversity Offsets Between Regulation and Voluntary Commitment by : Marianne Darbi
Download or read book Biodiversity Offsets Between Regulation and Voluntary Commitment written by Marianne Darbi and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-05-20 with total page 363 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We are witnessing an alarming, global biodiversity crisis with an ongoing loss of species and their habitats. In response, a number of tools and approaches – including some that are contested – are being explored and promoted. Biodiversity offsets are one such approach, and deserve critical examination since the debate surrounding them has often been oversimplified and lacking practical evidence. As such, this study presents a refined typology including seven types of biodiversity offsets and taking into account different contexts, governance arrangements and drivers. It draws on a detailed analysis of theoretical concepts to explain the voluntary implementation of biodiversity offsets using an internet-based (netnographic) research approach. Furthermore it builds on a broad global explorative base of 72 practical examples and presents in-depth case studies for each type. The results reveal a number of global tendencies that allow recommendations to be made for different locations, contexts and stakeholders. They also encourage the expansion of this research field to respond to the pressing needs of policy and practice.

Book Synopsis Climate Change: Observations on the Role of Carbon Offsets in Climate Change Legislation by : John Stephenson
Download or read book Climate Change: Observations on the Role of Carbon Offsets in Climate Change Legislation written by John Stephenson and published by DIANE Publishing. This book was released on 2010-11 with total page 22 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Carbon offsets ¿ reductions of greenhouse gas emissions from an activity in one place to compensate for emissions elsewhere ¿ can reduce the cost of regulatory programs to limit emissions because the cost of creating an offset may be less than the cost of requiring entities to make the reductions themselves. To be credible, however, an offset must reduce emissions below the quantity emitted in a business-as-usual scenario. This testimony examines: (1) the challenges in ensuring the quality of carbon offsets in the voluntary market; (2) lessons learned from the Clean Development Mechanism, an international offset program; and (3) matters that the Congress may wish to consider when developing regulatory programs to limit emissions.

Book Synopsis Use of Offsets to Reduce Greenhouse Gases by : Natalie Tawil
Download or read book Use of Offsets to Reduce Greenhouse Gases written by Natalie Tawil and published by DIANE Publishing. This book was released on 2010-10 with total page 8 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Discussions about reducing greenhouse gases (GC) often focus on limiting the use of fossil fuels to generate electricity or power cars and trucks, yet a variety of other actions ¿ incl. disposing of waste in different ways, changing methods of farming, and lessening deforestation ¿ could also reduce the concentration of GC in the atmosphere. Although experience with offsets is not extensive, evidence suggests that they can significantly lower the economic cost of a cap-and-trade program, even after accounting for the costs of steps taken to increase confidence that offsets represent true incremental reductions in GHGs. However, estimates of the savings that would result from including offsets in a cap-and-trade program depend on policy design. Illustrations.
