A Generation Later
Author: James F. Eder
Publisher: University of Hawaii Press
ISBN: 9780824822132
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 216
Book Description
A Generation Later moves beyond analytical models of rural change that focus on the peasant/agricultural aspect of rural communities and makes a convincing case for an approach that integrates farm and nonfarm occupations and does justice to the conditions of occupational multiplicity that characterize, to an increasing extent, many of the rural communities in Asia. In this context, it challenges conventional (and simplistic) "peasant to proletarian" views of change. Rather than finding a dreary and dispirited landscape of sameness and hardship, it offers some empirical support for amore optimistic view of the region's future, one of growing household prosperity and widespread individual opportunity.

Finance & Development, March 1988
Author: International Monetary Fund. External Relations Dept.
Publisher: International Monetary Fund
ISBN: 1616353724
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 56
Book Description
This paper examines the policy implications of structural changes in financial markets. Domestic financial markets have become less segmented, and the major financial centers more integrated. At the same time, the structural changes in financial markets have improved efficiency by lowering intermediation costs, increasing the ability to hedge financial risks associated with currency, interest rate, and price volatility and opening up access to new sources of savings. The widespread application of computer and telecommunications technology to financial markets has permitted markets to process a significantly larger volume of transactions.

Sustainability and Degradation in Less Developed Countries
Author: Sarah Lumley
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1351747738
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 165
Book Description
This title was first published in 2002. The concept of sustainable development has increasingly gained currency as a policy determination tool, yet its interpretation and application is widely contested, especially with respect to the role of economics in the facilitation of environmentally and socially sustainable outcomes. Sarah Lumley assesses some of the fundamental assumptions of mainstream economic theory as part of an analysis of farmers' motives in adopting soil conservation on degraded lands in the Philippines. The text has a strong focus on the theoretical and practical interactions between environmental, economic and social aspects of sustainable development; it is both multidisciplinary and transdisciplinary, and draws on conceptually important points of each discipline that it encompasses.

An Upland Community in Transition
Author: Agnes C. Rola
Publisher: Institute of Southeast Asian Studies
ISBN: 9814345156
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 262
Book Description
All over Southeast Asia, rural communities are in transition to a sustainable status. This book explores how an environmentally fragile upland community in rural Philippines coped with and responded to economic and environmental tensions brought about by a globalized economy and decentralization. This in turn gave rise to local power especially in the management of natural resources.
