Book Synopsis Public Policies and the Misuse of Forest Resources by : World Resources Institute
Download or read book Public Policies and the Misuse of Forest Resources written by World Resources Institute and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1988-09-30 with total page 450 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Six contributors explore the role of governments in accelerating the rate of forest destruction by providing direct and indirect subsidies to support what would otherwise be non-commercial logging operations. Without these financial incentives, most timber operations in the tropics would cease. In a series of country-by-country investigations, including examples from the developed and developing worlds, this book documents the government policies that are leading to the misuse of forest resources. Each is written by an authority on the county, and each contains descriptive, analytical and empirical material on key policies and their effects. The final country analysis focuses on the United States, where the consequences of the subsidized timber sales by the US Forest Service from most of the national forests are discussed. The book concludes with an overview of the impact of forest policies and the role of bilateral and multilateral agencies in their formulation. By directing attention toward the political dimension involved in forest clearance, this book will provide a clearer insight into the basic reasons why forests continue to be destroyed despite the outcry raised by conservationists.
Book Synopsis Why Educational Policies Can Fail by : George Psacharopoulos
Download or read book Why Educational Policies Can Fail written by George Psacharopoulos and published by . This book was released on 1990 with total page 46 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper reviews a number of educational policy statements in east African countries on issues ranging from combining education with production at the primary level to the financing of higher education. An assessment is made as to how successful the policies have been in achieving their original intention. The paper's conclusion is that policy outcomes fall far short of matching expectations, mainly because of insufficient, or the absence of, implementation. Most educational policies are not implemented because they are vaguely stated and the financing implications are not always worked out. Another common reason for failure is that the content of a policy is based on an empirically unsustained theoretical relationship between instruments and outcomes. The paper makes a plea for the formulation of more concrete, feasible and implementable policies based on documented cause-effect relationships.

Book Synopsis Public Sector Decentralization by : Jerry M. Silverman
Download or read book Public Sector Decentralization written by Jerry M. Silverman and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 1992-01-01 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper is addressed to a broad audience of development professionals who are interested in both the substance of decentralisation issues and their impact on economic development. The paper summarises experience with alternative decentralisation arrangements and suggests a new analytical framework for assessing the impact of such arrangements on the performance of economic development programmes and projects. Consideration of alternative forms of decentralisation reveals the need to clarify and establish priorities among economic and political objectives. The potential for conflict among multiple objectives and the need to assess decentralisation policies in terms of acceptable trade-offs among those objectives summarises the importance of this paper.

Book Synopsis Strategy for Forest Sector Development in Asia by : World Bank. Asia Technical Department. Land Resources Unit
Download or read book Strategy for Forest Sector Development in Asia written by World Bank. Asia Technical Department. Land Resources Unit and published by . This book was released on 1992 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report recommends a shift in the focus of World Bank support for forestry in Asia away from reliance on public sector institutions, acceptance of poor quality technical standards and exclusive emphasis on narrow subsectors. Instead, the paper proposes that the Bank move aggressively to improve the climate for investment and policy reform and mobilize political commitment on the need for change through an iterative process of sector analysis, policy dialogue and targeted investment. This strategy, which builds upon efforts already underway, will help the governments of the region put into place the essential institutional and decisionmaking capability to resolve forest land use and allocation problems on an ongoing basis, mobilize and deploy investment and other resources in ways consistent with overall national development priorities, and equitably resolve the conflicts which will inevitably accompany forest development.

Book Synopsis Settlement and Development in the River Blindness Control Zone by : Della E. McMillan
Download or read book Settlement and Development in the River Blindness Control Zone written by Della E. McMillan and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 1992 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume is the summary report of the Land Settlement Review (LSR), a regional study of land settlement in West Africa. The objective of the LSR was to examine the phenomenon of land settlement resulting from the successful control of onchocerciasis (riverblindness) by the Onchocerciasis Control Programme (OCP). The LSR analyzes the process of land settlement, both spontaneous and government sponsored, and recommends operational policy guidelines for promoting viable and sustainable settlement-related activities in the areas where onchocerciasis had been controlled. OCP is widely acknowledged as the most successful on-going disease control program in Africa. Started in 1974 by a group of 7 West African countries and 9 donors, including the World Bank, the program has expanded to 11 countries, includes twenty-two donors and protects 30 million people. In most of the original program area the disease has been virtually eliminated and lasting control of the disease throughout the extended program area is expected to be secured around the year 2000. The health impact of the program has been significant. Nine million children born since the beginning of the program are free of any risk of contracting the disease. Over 1.5 million people who were once seriously infected are now disease free and the program will have prevented an estimated 300,000 cases of the disease by the end of this decade.

Book Synopsis The Conservation Atlas of Tropical Forests by : International Union for Conservation of Nature and Natural Resources
Download or read book The Conservation Atlas of Tropical Forests written by International Union for Conservation of Nature and Natural Resources and published by Macmillan Reference USA. This book was released on 1992 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Africa's forests are being depleted at a faster rate than of any other continent. A major increase in the population growth rate began after World War II and it is now running at an annual rate of 2.9 per cent, resulting in massive demands for agricultural land, water, fuelwood and other products. There is no simple answer to environmental degradation and forest conservation must be part of a broader process of managing the landscape. Here to address this topic is the new Conservation Atlas of Tropical Forests: Africa, the first authoritative reference work on this subject. The second in a series this Conservation Atlas follows the format of the acclaimed Conservation Atlas of Tropical Forests: Asia and the Pacific (1991). Part I describes the issues, history of forests and climate, biological diversity, conservation of large mammals, and the peoples of the forests. Included are discussions of the links between population, environment and agriculture, the timber trade, protected areas system and the future for Africa's forests. Part II of the Atlas is a country by country survey of the forests of Africa. Stunning four-color maps, in a 9 x 12 format, have been compiled from satellite and radar imagery, aerial photography, and the latest information provided by forestry departments and development agencies. Both maps and text have been prepared and reviewed by a broad spectrum of specialists. The Atlas also includes four-color photographs and sketch maps. They represent the best visual portfolio available of Africa's forests today. For anyone interested in environmental issues, geography, forestry, development, economics, and the African region, this Atlas will be an essential resource.
