Download or read book Networks Governance and Economic Development written by Mari Joes Aranguren Querejeta and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2008-01-01 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This innovative volume explores the role of networks and variation in their forms of governance in delivering successful local and regional economic development. Written by experts from different disciplines, it offers a judicious mix of general theoretical reflections and specific case studies of different places, sectors, and scales. The result is an important contribution to an emerging research agenda on networked governance and the governance of networks and their influence on competitiveness in and across different scales of economic activities. Bob Jessop, Lancaster University, UK Networks, Governance and Economic Development represents one of the most authoritative compilations on the role of networks. The editors have brought together an impressive group of scholars who, from different disciplinary approaches, provide a fantastic overview of the key aspects in the governance of networks and on how they affect local economic development. Andrés Rodríguez-Pose, London School of Economics, UK This compact and authoritative book brings together the topical themes of networks and governance to advance understanding of the determinants of local economic development in the context of increasingly global relationships. Analyzing the governance of networks is critical in understanding how individual localities are able to promote development and consolidate positions within global production systems. In addressing such issues, this book accomplishes a significant bridging of disciplinary boundaries, incorporating different theoretical and empirical perspectives on the meanings and roles of territory, economic development and different forms of networks and governance. Networks, Governance and Economic Development brings together the analysis of leading researchers in their fields, following their interactions at a European Science Foundation exploratory workshop. The chapters will be an invaluable resource to researchers working in the fields of regional economic development, economic geography and economic policy as well as postgraduate students taking modules that specialize in aspects of the above themes.

Le Manuel met en lumière les principes et critères relatifs aux droits de l’homme dans le domaine de l’eau potable et de l’assainissement. Il explique les obligations juridiques internationales en termes de politiques et de pratiques opérationnelles qui soutiendront la réalisation progressive de l’accès universel. Le Manuel introduit une perspective des droits de l’homme qui ajoutera de la valeur à la prise de décision éclairée dans les activités quotidiennes des opérateurs, des gestionnaires et des organismes de régulation. Il encourage également ses lecteurs à s’engager activement dans des dialogues nationaux pour que les droits de l’homme à l’eau potable et à l’assainissement soient traduits en politiques, lois et règlements nationaux et locaux. La création d’un tel environnement favorable n’est, en fait, que la première étape du processus de réalisation progressive. La répartition des rôles et des responsabilités est l’étape suivante, dans un cadre institutionnel et opérationnel actualisé qui permet d’appliquer une perspective des droits de l’homme au processus d’examen et de révision des fonctions essentielles des opérateurs, des prestataires de services et des organismes de régulation.

Download or read book The human right to water its multi level protection and implementation in International European and National law written by Riccardo Montaldo and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2022-01-01 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The object of the research work is the analysis of the multilevel protection of the human right to water and the current degree of implementation that it has received in international, European, and national law, comparing the Italian and German contexts from the constitutional law perspective. Given the absence of an express recognition of the human right to water, another research question concerns the examination of the mechanisms of multilevel protection of human rights, assessing whether the relationships between the different levels of protection can contribute to the realisation of this fundamental human right. The research analyses the main sources of law and jurisprudence of each examined context, to understand the legal basis for the recognition of the human right to water, considering both the necessary protection of environmental aspects, as well as social and economic ones, fundamental for its full realisation. The analysis of normative and jurisprudential sources is supported by the examination of the most relevant doctrine.

Madagascar’s economic recovery has failed to gain momentum in 2015, largely due to external shocks, persistent political instability, and weak governance. Nonetheless, the authorities have implemented an adequate policy mix that has broadly maintained macroeconomic stability. In light of urgent balance of payments needs, the Malagasy authorities are requesting a second disbursement under the RCF, accompanied by a SMP. The IMF staff supports the authorities’ request for a disbursement under the RCF based on the policy track record over the past six months.
