Climate, Biodiversity and Forests: Issues and Opportunities Emerging from the Kyoto Protocol

Paige Brown


  Climate, Biodiversity and Forests: Issues and Opportunities Emerging from the Kyoto Protocol  Paige Brown  As policymakers prepare to implement the limits on greenhouse gas emissions called for in 1997 Kyoto Protocol, this timely report considers the role of forests and land use in protecting the earth's climate and biodiversity. Prepared in a collaboration between World Resources Institute and IUCN-The World Conservation Union, the report focuses on the ways in which forests and land-use change can both exacerbate and mitigate climate change. It identifies opportunities the Protocol presents for the conservation, improved management, and restoration of forests, and it explains why the role of forests has proved controversial. Finally, the report identifies key decisions ahead in industrial and developing countries to seize these opportunities for climate, forests, and biodiversity.  книги, книжный магазин, интернет-магазин As policymakers prepare to implement the limits on greenhouse gas emissions called for in 1997 Kyoto Protocol, this timely report considers the role of forests and land use in protecting the earth's climate and biodiversity.

A History of Post Keynesian Economics Since 1936

J. E. King


  A History of Post Keynesian Economics Since 1936  J. E. King  This is a unique, comprehensive and international history of the post Keynesian approach to economics since 1936. The author locates the origins of post Keynesian economics in the conflicting initial interpretations of Keynes? General Theory and in the complementary work of Michael Kalecki. The book begins by focusing on Cambridge Growth, Distribution and Capital theory and early post Keynesian thought in the US. The failure of post Keynesian theory to supplant the neo-classical paradigm in the 1970s is also discussed, along with an overview of post Keynesian thinking in other countries. The book then deals with the search for coherence between various strands of post Keynesian thought and other schools of economic thought. The author concludes by assessing the progress made by post Keynesian economics since 1936 and considers several possible alternative futures for the post Keynesians. Historians of economic thought as well as post Keynesian and other heterodox...  книги, книжный магазин, интернет-магазин This is a unique, comprehensive and international history of the post Keynesian approach to economics since 1936.

  China's Forest: Global Lessons from Market Reforms  William F. Hyde, Brian Belcher, Jintao Xu  "The King, who cannot take good care of the mountain, forest, lake and meadow, will not be able to rule the nation." ?Guan Zhong, Prime Minister of Qi State, Spring-Autumn Era International concerns about greenhouse gases and threats to biodiversity, as well as regional concerns about water supply, erosion control, watersheds, and local economic well-being make the study of forest policy more important than ever before.

This is the first book to comprehensively evaluate the effects of forest policy as it has followed or extended from agricultural, trade, and other reforms that began in 1978. Among the issues it addresses are the pressures exerted by the growing economy on the forest environment, the environmental effects of extractive......
