Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'In summary, the book provides an interesting mix of energy topics and perspectives that appears somewhat eclectic at first glance. . . . the book is a very useful and scholarly addition to the literature on energy governance and is recommended reading for all those who need to be better informed on the challenges and some of the solutions available at the current time.' - David Grinlinton, Journal of Energy & Natural Resources Law This timely book makes an original and in-depth contribution to the debate about how to transform our energy governance systems into ones that support a fair, safe and sustainable society. It combines perspectives from leading scholars to provide a global outlook on alternative approaches to energy governance and innovative experiences. Taken as a whole, it offers a unique overview of some of the innovative and novel ways in which law can support the shift to sustainable and equitable energy systems. The first section lays the conceptual and theoretical foundations for alternative approaches to energy governance, including its constitutional foundations, the role of human rights, and an environmentally just system that seeks universal access to energy for all. The second section showcases concrete innovative experiences in energy governance from around the globe, including smart cities, the role of the courts, energy efficiency of buildings and the harnessing of energy from waste. Finally, the authors consider the social justice dimension, discussing the exploitation of energy resources by multinational companies in developing countries and the importance of agricultural production, distribution and consumption in energy transformation. This unique overview of state-of-the-art approaches to transformation of energy governance is vital reading for policy makers and both legal and non-legal scholars concerned with energy law, sustainability and justice, and global governance.

Download or read book Vision 20 2020 The Menace of Vandalism written by Stephen B. Oladipo and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2013-07-26 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: economic conditions have a vital role to play in people's experience and perceptions of a place. Such economic conditions affect nutrional levels, health, geographic mobility, educational attainment, and overall quality of life. Hence the more reason youth and able working class men and women despise their home land-Nigeria in search of a better life in other countries o the world. This is continually so because socioeconomic status affects almost all aspects of human life. In fact, the more reason for the incessant vandalism activities within the Nigerian state. This is why change is required; the need for some drastic economic measures hence, the relevance of Vision 2020 at this point in the history of the Nigerian economy may just have been the stich in nine to save ten. The book "Vision 20-2020 and the Menace of Vandalism" therefore, is a policy guide and direction signaling material. It pictures this policy agenda called "Vision 20-2020" of President Umar Musa Yar'adua as a dream towards attaining the nation's golden age, which must not b aborted. It also tends to beckon the attention of the Nigerian government as well as her economic handlers who are saddled with strategic planning and responsibilities to see the country emerge as one of the 20 most economically viable nation among other countries of the world by year 2020 to the plaque called vandalism. While, it strives at the same time to crave the indulgence of the relevant arm of the government to the fact that failure to muster and empower the concern institution/parastatal towards bringing the activities of vandals into check within the Nigerian state, untold limitations and hindrances may hijack the way to this fulfillment. It is of important therefore that this vision of our golden age as a people is not left to be choked in the fume of vandalism which has since rent the economic life of the country, especially more, considering the capacity of the oil sector in the sustainability of the socio-political and economy of the state.

Download or read book Oiling the Urban Economy written by Franklin Obeng-Odoom and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-06-13 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a critical analysis of the ‘resource curse’ doctrine and a review of the international evidence on oil and urban development to examine the role of oil on property development and rights in West Africa’s new oil metropolis - Sekondi-Takoradi, Ghana. It seeks answers to the following questions: In what ways did the city come into existence? What changes to property rights are oil prospecting, explorations, and production introducing in the 21st century? How do the effects vary across different social classes and spectrums? To what extent are local and national institutions able to shape, restrain, and constrain trans-national oil-related accumulation and its effects on property in land, property in housing (residential, leisure, and commercial), and property in labour? How do these processes connect with the entire urban system in Ghana? This book shows how institutions of varying degrees of power interact to govern land, housing, and labour in the city, and analyses how efficient, sustainable, and equitable the outcomes of these interactions are. It is a comprehensive account of the tensions and contradictions in the main sectors of the urban economy, society, and environment in the booming Oil City and will be of interest to urban economists, development economists, real estate economists, Africanists and urbanists.
