Environmental Policy and Societal Aims
Author: D. Requier-Desjardins
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 9401145210
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 338
Book Description
Sustainable development and environmental improvement are often regarded as intrinsically valuable a priori. As a result, the policies by which these goals are to be attained is often inadequately scrutinised. In this book, ecological economics addresses the institutional and policymaking aspects of environmental problems, thus covering a broad socioeconomic research agenda, in contradistinction to mainstream economic approaches. The approach advocated here is open to differing viewpoints on the same issue, sees conflict resolution as a social process, and accepts the need for research into political-economic issues, according a prominent position to the aims of society itself. An in-depth analysis of the policy process is followed in order to understand the pitfalls and barriers that will confront society on the road to sustainable development. Readership: The broad approach advocated will appeal to all involved in environmental problems - decision makers, NGO members, and academic scholars.

Economics, Game Theory And International Environmental Agreements: The Ca' Foscari Lectures
Author: Henry Tulkens
Publisher: World Scientific
ISBN: 9813141247
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 459
Book Description
The science and management of environmental problems is a vast area, comprising both the natural and social sciences, and the multidisciplinary links often make these issues challenging to comprehend. Economics, Game Theory and International Environmental Agreements: The Ca' Foscari Lectures aims to introduce students to the multidimensional character of international environmental problems in general, and climate change in particular.Ecology, economics, game theory and diplomacy are called upon and brought together in the common framework of a basic mathematical model. Within that framework, and using tools from these four disciplines, the book develops a theory that aims to explain and promote cooperation in international environmental affairs.Other books on the topic tend to be research-oriented volumes of various papers. Instead, this is a book that offers a reasonably-sized synthesis of the multidimensional societal problems of transfrontier pollution, particularly of climate change. It uses mathematical modeling of economic and game theory concepts to examine these environmental issues and demonstrate many results in an accessible fashion. Readers interested in understanding the links between ecology and economics, as well as the connection between economics and institutional decision-making, will find in this text not only answers to many of their queries but also questions for further thinking.

Author: H. Dienel
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 1349269514
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 295
Book Description
Since the end of World War II, European airlines have revealed their own operational style. By analyzing seven European flag-carriers, Dienel and Lyth provide a comparative study of the airline business, covering government policy, aircraft procurement, network growth, commercial performance and collaboration with other airlines and transport modes. This study also seeks to explain why national flag-carriers have survived in an age of globalization and strategic alliances. A concluding chapter views the contrasting American air transport industry.

Environnement et choix économiques d'entreprise
Author: Christian Stoffaës
Publisher:
ISBN: 9782729606022
Category : Business enterprises
Languages : fr
Pages : 181
Book Description
Les débats entre l'économie et l'écologie au niveau des choix d'entreprise ont longtemps été marqués par l'affrontement et l'incompréhension. Il est temps de dépasser ces oppositions stériles. L'environnement est parvenu au stade de la maturité. Le dialogue démocratique doit trouver sa place, appuyé sur des évaluations économiques et des chiffres, garanties de la transparence. Les grandes entreprises nationales gestionnaires d'infrastructures de base sont au centre de l'enjeu : elles ont introduit de longue date la rationalité économique dans leurs choix d'investissement; placées sous le regard de l'opinion publique, leurs grandes options techniques sont de véritables choix de société. Les ingénieurs-économistes d'entreprise sont convaincus qu'un dialogue est possible et utile avec l'écologie. C'est à cette ambition que répond cet ouvrage.

Les paradoxes de l'économie du savoir
Author: GUILHON Bernard
Publisher: Lavoisier
ISBN: 2746289024
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 258
Book Description
La connaissance joue un rôle fondamental dans l'évolution des sociétés contemporaines, les mécanismes de production, d'appropriation et de dissémination des connaissances se heurtent aujourd'hui aux contraintes de la globalisation. Les fondements et les mécanismes de fonctionnement d'une économie immatérielle se trouvent ainsi remis en cause dans de nombreux domaines (stratégies R&D et d'innovation des agents économiques, gestion de l'environnement, dispositifs de formation, analyse macroéconomique des économies, etc.). Cette remise en cause, dont la lecture se fait à travers l'analyse des stratégies et des comportements des acteurs économiques, suscite la formation de paradoxes, voire de contradictions. Après avoir mis en évidence les repères, les trajectoires et les promesses que dessine l'économie du savoir, cet ouvrage propose d'explorer les singularités de la production et l'usage des connaissances, les processus de qualification et de gestion des ressources cognitives, mais également ceux qui ont trait au fonctionnement des économies.
