Download or read book Strategies Toward Sustainable Development written by Nicholas A. Robinson and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 960 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This unparalleled resource sets forth the international community's blueprint for worldwide development. Here is one reference source for all of the action plans negotiated since the United Nations' historic "Earth Summit" in 1992 in Rio de Janeiro that established the global and regional priorities necessary to sustain environmentally sound economic and social development. Expert commentary and annotations on the implications - both opportunities for investment and concerns about changes in regulatory regimes - of these international legal policy decisions is featured here. This is the only resource integrating implementation strategies with the Agenda 21 directives, complete with analytical commentary and annotations. This comprehensive work provides expert guidance to the legal instruments framing the strategic objectives for sustainable development. It includes full coverage of the Johannesburg Plan of Implementation, adopted at the UN World Summit for Sustainable Development (2002), which set the priorities for implementing Agenda 21, the action plan that was adopted at the U.N. Summit for Environment and Development a decade earlier. Here also are the strategic measures for financing these strategic objectives, negotiated at the summit meeting in Monterrey, Mexico. Taken together, these legal instruments comprise the current international action plan that guides the multilateral, bilateral, and national economic development agendas around the world. This invaluable reference is essential for those involved in international trade law, since free trade agreements now contain provisions that mandate negotiations to harmonize environmental and social regulations. Similarly, these agreed policies guide the international programs of the World Bank, regional development banks, and regional integration pacts such as the European Union or the Association of South East Asian Nations. Coverage includes: - Evolving Delivery Mechanisms for a Clear & Urgent Mission (Commentary by Nicholas A. Robinson) - Agenda 21 - Annotated Action Plan - Johannesburg Plan of Implementation - Monterrey Financing Plan - Policy Resolutions and Implementing Measures - Valuable references to Internet sources for national reports submitted to the U.N. Commission on Sustainable Development.

Download or read book Trust Cooperation and Implementation of Sustainability Programs written by Ann L. Owen and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 29 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper provides evidence of the role of trust in ensuring desirable economic outcomes. We examine the implementation of Local Agenda 21, a regional sustainability initiative that requires the coordination of diverse decision-makers, in a sample of 67 developing and industrialized countries. We use a game theoretic framework to motivate our empirical study of the number of Local Agenda 21 programs implemented across countries. We find that, once a threshold level of trust is reached, higher levels of aggregate trust are associated with more communities adopting a program that requires coordination of multiple stakeholders. We also find that more programs are adopted when the country's institutional structure may reduce the cost of coordination and when the benefits of the program, measured by environmental quality, would be expected to be greater.

Download or read book Cooperatives and Local Development written by Christopher D. Merrett and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2016-09-16 with total page 343 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First Published in 2004. The market economy has changed profoundly over the past two centuries. In the nineteenth century, business enterprises were largely single-product ventures, managed directly by the owners and rooted within national economies. In the twentieth century, firms employed managers who were not owners. Firms also evolved into multiproduct, multiunit entities that could employ thousands of workers. In the twenty-first century, many firms operate on a global scale, taking advantage of free trade policies and rapidly evolving computer and telecommunications technologies. Given this potential, it is crucial that producers, consumers, economic developers, and researchers realize how co-ops can promote local economic and community development. Hence, this book includes the perceptions of experts on a variety of cooperative issues, including the challenges involved in starting a co-op and in understanding its impact on surrounding communities. This book can be especially useful because it provides the theoretical foundations and practical applications of cooperative behavior.
