Download or read book Climate Finance as an Instrument to Promote the Green Growth in Developing Countries written by Antonio A. Romano and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-09-07 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book analyses the effectiveness of climate finance as political instrument to reduce the effect of anthropogenic activities on climate change and promote the green growth in developing countries. The book highlights that close attention should also be paid to the analysis of political contexts in a broad sense. Particularly focusing on the international negotiations process that enables the direction of funds toward specific needs and priorities and the issue of access to electricity. For example, the difficulties that developing countries face when trying to improve their green economic development without access to carbon remains a matter of the utmost importance and urgency for many developing countries that lack significant aid from developed countries. This book will be of interest to a wide body of academics and practitioners in climate change and energy policies. Moreover, this project is a valid instrument for students in energy policies and climate programs.

Download or read book Constitutional Democracy and Islam written by Francesco Alicino and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-04-07 with total page 215 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book outlines the legal status of Muslims in Italy. In particular, it highlights that, when it comes to Islam, the Italian legal system exacerbates the dilemma of contemporary constitutional democracies, increasingly caught between the principle of equality and the right to have rights, which implies the respect of diversity. It provides readers with a deep understanding of how domestic and external socio-political factors may muddle the interpretation of Italy’s constitutional provisions, starting with those relating to state secularism and religious freedom. It is argued that today, as never before, these provisions are torn between the principle of equality and the right to be different. This situation has been exacerbated by incessant states of emergency, from immigration to religion-inspired terrorism, in light of which the presence of Islam in the peninsula has been highly politicized. Italy’s experience on the legal status of Muslims provides an interesting case study and, as such, a valuable source of empirical information for a functioning and pluralistic constitutional democracy, especially when dealing with conditions of fear and insecurity. The book will be of interest to researchers, academics, and policy-makers working in the areas of law and religion, constitutional law, comparative law, and human rights.

Download or read book Italians in Africa and the Japanese in South East Asia written by Nikolaos Mavropoulos and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2022-08-22 with total page 436 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The comparison of early Italy’s and Japan’s colonialism is without precedence. The majority of studies on Italian and Japanese expansion refer to the 1930–1940s period (fascist/totalitarian era) when Japan annexed Manchuria (1931) and Italy Ethiopia (1936). The first formative and crucial steps that paved the way for this expansion have been neglected. This analysis covers a range of social, political and economic parameters illuminating the diversity but also the common ground of the nature and aspirations of Japan's and Italy's early colonial systems. The two states alongside the Great Powers of the era expanded in the name of humanism and civilization but in reality in a way typically imperialistic, they sought territorial compensations, financial privileges and prestige. A parallel and deeper understanding of the nineteenth century socio-cultural-psychological parameters, such as tradition, mentality, and religion that shaped and explain the later ideological framework of Rome's and Tōkyō's expansionist disposition, has never been attempted before. This monograph offers a detailed examination of the phenomenon of colonialism by examining the issue from two different angles. The study contributes to the understanding of Italy's and Japan's early imperial expansion. In addition, it traces the origins of these states' similar and common historical evolution in late nineteenth and the first half of the twentieth century.

Download or read book Government Measures for the Promotion of Regional Economic Development written by International Information Centre for Local Credit and published by Springer. This book was released on 2013-03-14 with total page 173 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The International Information Centre for Local Credit, with the assistance of member banks, carries out investigations in different countries and publishes the results. The present study relates to the problem of the unequal economic, social and cultural development of different areas in the world. Particu larly since the second world war this problem has been recognized as being of major importance. While initially it was the differences in development between different countries which attracted almost all the attention, for a number of years now an increasing interest has been apparent in the differences in level of development between specific regions in individual countries. This growing realization of the problem with regard to the varying levels of development which could exist within one and the same country found expression, for instance, in the International Union of Local Authorities congress held at Tel Aviv in 1961, which was devoted to the task of local authorities in development areas. The increasing interest in these problems was also evidenced in other quarters, the Conference for Regional Economy of the European Economic Community being held in Brussels in the same year. From these conferences, and also from many other indications as well, it became clear that the problem of regional economic develop ment today stands high on the priority list of questions of policy for many governments and that in general there is a great need for infor mation on how the problem is being tackled in other countries.

Download or read book Teaching Research and Academic Careers written by Daniele Checchi and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-08-12 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open access book evaluates research quality, quality of teaching and the relationship between the two through sound statistical methods, and in a comparative perspective with other European countries. In so doing, it covers an increasingly important topic for universities that affects university funding. It discusses whether university evaluation should be limited to a single factor or consider multiple dimensions of research, since academic careers, teaching and awarding degrees are intertwined. The chapters included in the book evaluate teaching and research, also taking the gender dimension into account, in order to understand where and when gender discrimination occurs in assessment. Divided into five sections, the book analyses the administrative data on the determinants of career completion of university students; increasing precariousness of academic careers, especially of young researchers; methods designed to assess research productivity when co-authorship and team production are becoming the standard practice; and interrelations between students’ achievements and teachers’ careers driven by research assessment. It brings together contributions from a large group of economists, statisticians and social scientists working under a project sponsored by ANVUR, the Italian agency for the evaluation of teaching and research of academic institutions. From an international perspective, the findings in this book are particularly interesting because despite low tuition costs, tertiary education in Italy has relatively low enrolment rates and even lower completion rates compared to those in other European and American countries. This book is of interest to researchers of the sociology of education, education policy, public administration, economics and statistics of education, and to administrators and policy makers working in the area of higher education.

Download or read book Tied Aid and Development Aid Procurement in the Framework of EU and WTO Law written by Annamaria La Chimia and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2014-07-18 with total page 559 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the first legal treatment of tied aid and examines in detail the compatibility of tied aid with EU and WTO law. The workings of the aid projects and aid procurement systems of donor countries granting bilateral aid are fully examined through case studies from the UK, Italy, the EU and the US. Tied aid refers to aid granted to developing countries on condition that goods and services for the aid-financed projects are purchased from the donor country only. The recipient country, in order to receive the grant or the loan, has no other choice but to fulfil the condition imposed by the donor. Economists have shown that tying aid undermines the effectiveness of aid. It leads to higher costs paid for the goods and services purchased and the distortion of the nature of the aid. Further, tying frustrates the potential of aid to foster trade between developing countries - in many of these countries public bodies and, in particular, aid-financed projects are major potential outlets for trade between neighbouring states. The importance of tied aid has been pointed out in economic literature but there is surprisingly little written on the legal aspects of tied aid practices and this book seeks to fill this major gap in the literature. The book is of interest to academics in the field of EU and WTO law, NGOs and practitioners working both in the field of public procurement and development policies.

Secondly, did the financial markets play a key role in securing the growth and prosperity of the US during the 1990s? A third issue is the effect of the recent changes in the organization of the financial markets.
