Download or read book L conomie des transports dans les programmes de d veloppement written by Paul Bourrières and published by FeniXX. This book was released on 1964-01-01T00:00:00+01:00 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: L'INSTITUT D'ÉTUDE DU DÉVELOPPEMENT ÉCONOMIQUE ET SOCIAL Les problèmes que posent la transformation économique rapide et l'aspiration ardente vers le progrès social de vastes contrées en voie de développement accéléré se révèlent aujourd'hui comme étant d'une singulière gravité, tant par leurs incidences sur la politique mondiale que par les responsabilités qu'ils imposent à la conscience des peuples plus évolués. La connaissance que nous avons de ces problèmes et surtout de leurs solutions possibles reste très fragmentaire. Un puissant effort d'études et de recherches, ainsi que d'enseignement et de diffusion des informations disponibles, s'impose donc comme une urgente nécessité. C'est à ces préoccupations générales que répond la création par décret en date du 16 octobre 1957 d'un Institut de l' Université de Paris pour l'étude des problèmes du développement économique et social. Soucieux de ne pas se limiter à des études académiques théoriques, l'Institut conserve le contact le plus étroit avec les réalités concrètes, en assurant une active participation à ses travaux de représentants du secteur privé (industriel, commercial, financier, agricole), de fonctionnaires, nationaux, étrangers, ou internationaux. Les études et recherches de l'Institut ont un caractère largement interdisciplinaire et les problèmes étudiés sont explorés à l'aide des techniques des diverses sciences expérimentales, sociales et humaines, comme des techniques et sciences de l'ingénieur. La création et l'action de l'Institut sont fondées sur l'affirmation que le développement économique et le progrès social des pays pauvres constituent un objectif prioritaire s'imposant à l'attention vigilante des nations plus avancées, ceci dans l'intérêt réel d'une vraie collaboration internationale, se consacrant au service de l'homme, et écartant toute action de politique de puissance, nationale et égoïste. Un tel objectif est aujourd'hui, plus que jamais, à l'ordre du jour. Cette conception réaliste — au sens élevé du terme — d'une solidarité internationale peut s'accommoder de la diversité de régimes, d'institutions, d'idéologies qui caractérise la collectivité internationale contemporaine, enrichie sans cesse de nouveaux membres. L'Institut doit largement tenir compte de cette diversité ; il ne vise pas à établir une orthodoxie du développement; il étudie les expériences, décrit les circonstances de leur succès ou de leur échec; il constitue une sorte de clearing house étudiant et présentant les techniques alternatives disponibles, adaptables aux buts recherchés, ou à la politique définie dans chaque pays par les intéressés eux-mêmes. Il ne s'agit pas de proposer que soit étendue ou appliquée telle expérience poursuivie dans les pays développés, mais de comprendre et de mettre en évidence les besoins et aspirations des pays en voie de développement et d'y adapter les solutions envisagées. L'ASSOCIATION « TIERS MONDE » Cette Association a été fondée pour aider aux recherches sur les problèmes que pose le développement économique et social des pays sous-développés. Ces pays constituent le « Tiers Monde » de notre univers; des centaines de millions d'hommes, de femmes et d'enfants y vivent dans des conditions qui ne sont pas dignes de l'homme. L'Association « Tiers Monde » souhaite aider l'effort de recherche et d'enseignement déjà entrepris par l'Université de Paris qui a créé un Institut d'Étude du Développement économique et social; elle a l'espoir de rassembler toutes les bonnes volontés, nationales et internationales, en multipliant les contacts et les échanges de pensée entre Français métropolitains, citoyens de la Communauté, étrangers de tous les horizons géographiques, ressortissants de tous les pays du Tiers Monde sans distinction de nationalité, de race, de sexe ou de religion. L'Association « Tiers Monde », fondée par M. Henri Laugier, Président honoraire, est présidée par M. François Perroux. Son siège est à PARIS, 58, boulevard Arago (XIIIe) où toutes informations complémentaires peuvent être obtenues.

Book Sustainable Transport

Download or read book Sustainable Transport written by and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 1996-01-01 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This publication elaborates on how the specific characteristics of the different transport subsectors affect the potential for expanding the role of competitive markets. It defines the principal challenges currently faced by the transport sector as a whole as: (i) the completion of basic infrastructure networks and (ii) the provision of adequate maintenance for them. Future challenges may include: (i) increasing responsiveness to customer needs, (ii) adjusting to global trade patterns, and (iii) coping with rapid motorization. These challenges highlight the need to reform institutional and transport policy in order to support a better quality of life on a sustained basis. This book identifies some generally applicable principles and best practices as the foundation of a policy for more sustainable transport. Economic and financial sustainability requires that resources be used efficiently and that assets be maintained properly. Environmental and ecological sustainability requires that the external effects of transport be taken into account fully when public or private decisions are made that determine future development. Social sustainability requires that the benefits of improved transport reach all sections of the community. It is necessary to redefine the role of governments in the transport sector--the focus in transport policy must shift toward a market-based approach with the private sector taking on more of the responsibility for providing, operating, and financing transport services and infrastructure. The role of the government would therefore decline, but its importance as the enabler of competition and the custodian of environmental and social interests would increase. The World Bank Group's role will be to focus on institutional and policy reform; it can help governments fulfill their enabling and supervisory role in a freer transport market through more selective and focused technical assistance for building the capacity and skills needed by the public sector." -- Website.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Inland & Maritime Waterways & Ports: Design, Construction, and Operation covers the proceedings of the technical sessions in the 25th Permanent International Association of Navigation Congress, held in Scotland. This book is organized into two sections encompassing 10 chapters. The first section deals first with means for the protection of banks and bottom waterways against the attack by currents and waves, including those generated by ships. These topics are followed by discussions on methods of increasing waterways capacity and safety; sedimentation reduction and improving and maintaining navigable depths in alluvial channels; integration of ocean-coastal-inland navigation; and improvements of maritime ports and inland terminals. The second section starts with discussions of the developments in the construction of ships, navigational aids, waterways and harbors, traffic management and installations, with particular emphasis on risk analysis and safety criteria regarding transportation, unloading, and storage of liquefied natural and petroleum gases. Other topics covered in this section include economic optimization of the whole dredging cycle; cargo handling systems and equipment; design and construction of port facilities and arrangement of quay platforms; and coastal erosion caused by harbor works and corrective measures. This book will prove useful to design and navigation engineers and researchers.

Book The Manorial Economy in Early Modern East Central Europe

Download or read book The Manorial Economy in Early Modern East Central Europe written by Jerzy Topolski and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-10-28 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is concerned with one of the fundamental problems in the economic and social history of Europe in the early modern period, namely with the bifurcation in its development: in Western Europe, the development of capitalism; in East-Central Europe, the rise of the manorial-serf economy which hampered the development of capitalism. The main motif linking together the studies in this volume is the endeavour to explain this separation. the author evaluates the different theories explaining this, and also provides further analysis of economic life, dealing with the commercial activity, economic regression, especially in Poland.
