Book Synopsis Potentials for forestry and political drivers in integrated rural development policy by : Lukas Giessen
Download or read book Potentials for forestry and political drivers in integrated rural development policy written by Lukas Giessen and published by Universitätsverlag Göttingen. This book was released on 2010 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Die Arbeit befasst sich mit dem regionalisierten und sektorübergreifenden Steuerungsansatz von Regional Governance und der Einbeziehung der Forstwirtschaft als Politiksektor. Am Beispiel der integrierten ländlichen Entwicklung klärt sie einerseits die Frage nach forstwirtschaftlichen Potentialen in Regional Governance-Initiativen und analysiert andererseits allgemeine politische Kräfte, die Regional Governance bestimmen. Es wird gezeigt, dass im Rahmen von Regional Governance-Initiativen konventionelle und innovative Potentiale für die Forstwirtschaft bestehen. Diese können jedoch aufgrund unterschiedlicher Informationsstände, verschiedener Kapazitäten sowie unterschiedlicher Anreizwirkungen nicht von allen Akteursgruppen gleichermaßen realisiert werden. Die vorgefundenen politischen Determinanten von Regional Governance umfassen die Konkurrenz zwischen Regional Governance-Institutionen und demokratisch legitimierten Institutionen, die Strategie höherer politischer Ebenen zur Erlangung von Einfluss auf Regionalpolitik, sowie die Prägung von Regional Governance durch die Interessen von starken Akteuren und deren Koalitionen. In diesem Zusammenhang wird gezeigt, dass der sektorübergreifende Anspruch von Regional Governance aufgrund sektoraler Interessenlagen sowohl in der Formulierung als auch im regionalen Vollzug nicht erfüllt wird und sich lediglich punktuelle Integrationserfolge auf Projektebene erreichen lassen. Diese Ergebnisse lassen sich durch zweierlei Machtstrategien erklären: Einerseits das Bemühen übergeordneter politischer Ebenen, ihren Einfluss auf Regionalpolitik auszuweiten und andererseits die Strategie von konkurrierenden Politiksektoren, ihren Einflussbereich zu verteidigen bzw. zu Lasten anderer Sektoren auszudehnen.

Book Synopsis Forests and Rural Development by : Jürgen Pretzsch
Download or read book Forests and Rural Development written by Jürgen Pretzsch and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2014-01-21 with total page 405 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides an overview of the complex challenges and opportunities related to forest-based rural development in the tropics and subtropics. Applying a socio-ecological perspective, the book traces the changing paradigms of forestry in rural development throughout history, summarizes the major aspects of the rural development challenge in forest areas and documents innovative approaches in fields such as land utilization, technology and organizational development, rural advisory services, financing mechanisms, participative planning and forest governance. It brings together scholars and practitioners dealing with the topics from various theoretical and practical angles. Calling for an approach that carefully balances market forces with government intervention, the book shows that forests in rural areas have the potential to provide a solid foundation for a green global economy.

Book Synopsis The context of deforestation and forest degradation in Bolivia by : Robert Müller
Download or read book The context of deforestation and forest degradation in Bolivia written by Robert Müller and published by CIFOR. This book was released on 2014-06-10 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt:
Bolivia’s forest resources are of global importance, its main forest areas are located in subtropical and tropical regions. There is severe deforestation going on in the lowlands at a rate of approximately 200,000 ha per year, whilst forest degradation mostly concerns montane forests. Cattle ranching is the most important direct driver of deforestation, followed by mechanized agriculture at medium- and large-scale level, mainly for the production of soy bean, and finally small-scale agriculture. Underlying causes of deforestation include, among others, the opening of the agricultural economy to international markets and the weakness of institutions in charge of controlling land use. From 2006 on, under the government of Evo Morales, Bolivia adopted an official position against the marketization of nature and in defense of the rights of mother earth. In consequence to its rejection of REDD, Bolivia developed an alternative proposal called “Joint Mechanism of Mitigation and Adaptation for Integrated and Sustainable Management of Forests and Mother Earth”. This proposal was also promoted in international negotiations on climate change. It focuses on local experiences for a sustainable and integrated management of natural resources and fosters land use planning at different levels of governance. Our analysis suggests that there is still a lack of concrete approaches to mitigate the direct threats to forests; moreover, the control of illegal deforestation is still insufficient. We also note that in parallel to policies of nature conservation, there is a contradicting political agenda being implemented promoting the expansion of the agricultural frontier. Only the future will show if the vision of “Living Well in Harmony with Mother Earth” will really lead to effective measures to combat the loss and the degradation of the immense richness of Bolivian forest.

Download or read book Environment written by Jules Pretty and published by SAGE. This book was released on 2006-06-23 with total page 1588 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This four-volume set explores the locations where the environment matters most such as where people are poor, where environments are under threat (such as on frontiers), where there are few natural resources remaining, and where industrialization is rampant. It will also explore these concerns at different system levels, from local-community, to regional, national and global. It will also explore costs of damage to the very resources on which economies rely, and the values of environmental goods and services and the controversies surrounding such valuations. It is organized around environment-people interactions (livelihoods, poverty, income, economic growth); environment-environment interactions (do people matter?); and people-people interactions (collective action challenges, institutions).
Book Synopsis Bioenergy - Realizing the Potential by : Dr. Semida Silveira
Download or read book Bioenergy - Realizing the Potential written by Dr. Semida Silveira and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2005-07-14 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Modern bioenergy has gained increased attention in the past decade. Not only does it provide an effective option for the provision of energy services from the technical point of view, but it is based on resources that can be utilized on a sustainable basis all around the globe. In addition, the benefits accrued go beyond energy provision, creating unique opportunities for regional development. Today, biomass is seen as one of the most promising renewable sources of modern energy services in the medium term. Know-how and experiences from different countries pave the way to further development of bioenergy systems. Bioenergy: Realising the Potential integrates the key technical, policy and economic issues surrounding bioenergy projects in industrialised and developing countries, with a critical focus on four major topics: • The biomass resource availability and potential • The institutions and markets development • Technical and economic enhancements • Successful examples from Europe and developing countries

Book Synopsis Development Cooperation Policy in Forestry from an Analytical Perspective by : Peter Aurenhammer
Download or read book Development Cooperation Policy in Forestry from an Analytical Perspective written by Peter Aurenhammer and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-10-02 with total page 345 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Any reader eager to gain a comprehensive insight into forest development policy, praxis and reality shouldn’t miss this excellent publication. Hard to find a comparable reading where the author is digging as deep into Forest Development Policy. The author discovered numerous highly relevant theories as well as inspiring cases about forests and people from around the world, focusing on ‘change’ rather than ‘development’ and on the role of various actors in creating or preventing ‘change’. The exciting results uncover reality and lead to inspiring discussions on concepts of development cooperation. All individual theoretical arguments and empirical proofs are well based and shed light into the political process of Forest Development Policy. The book is an essential contribution to scholarly debate and research on forestry in the South, and its relations to development cooperation, for both, readers with theoretical and practice related interests.
