Book Pakistan s Cotton and Textile Economy

Download or read book Pakistan s Cotton and Textile Economy written by Caesar Bucia Cororaton and published by Intl Food Policy Res Inst. This book was released on 2008-01-01 with total page 119 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pakistan's cotton, textile, and apparel industries are key sectors of the nation's economy; their performance can contribute to either a rise or fall in poverty. These vital industries have faced a variety of challenges and opportunities in recent years, including world cotton price instability, liberalization of the multilateral clothing and textile trade, and sharp swings in the Pakistani macroeconomic situation. Using a computable general equilibrium (CGE) model and drawing on a national survey of Pakistani households, the authors of this report evaluate the consequences of several recent or prospective economic changes on Pakistan's cotton, textile, and apparel industries and poverty levels. The economic changes include an increased inflow of foreign capital, higher world cotton and textile prices, government subsidization of the textile industry, increased productivity in the cotton and textile sectors, and other possible developments. By presenting these scenarios, the report offers policymakers and analysts a guide to anticipating and shaping the future of economic growth and poverty reduction in Pakistan.

Book Rio  Johannesburg and Beyond

Download or read book Rio Johannesburg and Beyond written by LEAD India (Organization) and published by . This book was released on 2002 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides concerned citizens and national leaders with a comprehensive analysis of India s environmental problems, and suggestions for practical and innovative solutions by a team of experts drawn from LEAD India s network. The analysis is clear and uncompromising. Agrarian women have become poorer in the ten years since Rio, while environmental degradation has increased. Globalisation has clearly benefited the middle classes, but what of its impact on the poor? Can science and technology help foster sustainability and meet the needs of the poorest? Are intellectual property rights able to protect the kind of traditional and indigenous knowledge that underpins India? The challenge lies in how to maintain the lessons from the country s micro successes and macro failures. The writers argue that hope should not be lost and that the way forward is to build a coalition for responsible frugality .

Book Pakistan Under Musharraf  1999 2002

Download or read book Pakistan Under Musharraf 1999 2002 written by Shahrukh Rafi Khan and published by Vanguard Press. This book was released on 2004 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This is a book of essays, dedicated to Omar Asghar Khan, based on research conducted between 1999 and 2002 while the author was at the Sustainable Development Policy Institute. Given that a military government had assumed power during this period, it was inevitable that many of the public policy issues addressed are key reforms discussed and instituted by this government. The first section is about land reform that one can refer to as "the mother of all reforms" in the country. This represents a recurring and connecting theme of the book. The second section is on devolution that was the first, most fundamental, and most talked about reform of the military government. Like land reform, but not at the same level, devolution can interface with all other reforms, particularly the key social sector reforms such as that pertaining to education. The author explains how this is the case while the third section is devoted entirely to education. One important way of making a success of rural basic education, the most lagging building block for education improvement in Pakistan, is to involve parents and communities. This participatory model has a broader application to rural development as explained in the context of activating social capital in section four. Activating and formalizing social capital is also central to the concept of sustainable development as explained in section five. Sustainable development and the environment have an interface with trade and this is addressed in section six. Trade and other liberalizations that have part been part of structural adjustment reform policies in Pakistan has undergone, both before and during the military government tenure, and this is the subject of section seven. Finally, some other important policy issues including Islamic finance, NGO registration, child labor, and peace are discussed in section eight."--Dust jacket.
