Book Description
Chapter 2 gives a general view of the evolution of the Thai manufacturing sector. Chapter 3 describes the structure and development of the clothing and textile industry and government intervention, analysing protection policies as well as the effective rates of assistance (ERA) in the industry. Chapter 4 and 5 deal with MFA issues. Chapter 6 examines the exports of the Thai clothing sector in comparing its exports to Hong Kong. Chapter 7 presents a world clothing trade model to evaluate the welfare effects of the MFA on Thailand and to predict the future of Thai exports under different scenarios. Chapter 8 summarizes the conclusions

Sustainability, growth, and poverty alleviation
Author: Stephen A. Vosti
Publisher: Intl Food Policy Res Inst
ISBN: 0801856078
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 436
Book Description
Developing countries are under pressure to produce more food for their growing populations, conserve natural resources, and reduce poverty. In the short term, however, these goals may compete with one another. This book focuses on the interactions between agricultural growth and environment and between environment and poverty. The chapters analyze and illustrate these interactions with case study evidence from the developing world in general and from specific agroclimatic zones in Africa, Asia, and Latin America. The contributors also discuss what these links mean for development policies, agricultural technologies, and social and economic institutions. With a clearer picture of how these goals interact, policymakers and researchers can design strategies for working more effectively to meet them.

System Zoo 3 Simulation Models
Author: Hartmut Bossel
Publisher: BoD – Books on Demand
ISBN: 3833484241
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 274
Book Description
About the book: Mathematical modeling and computer simulation make it possible to understand and control the dynamic processes taking place in complex systems. Simulation provides insights into the often surprising diversity of possible behaviors, and allows identifying possibilities for intervention and options for alternative development. About one hundred simulation models from all areas of life are fully documented in the three volumes of the 'System Zoo'. They can be quickly implemented and easily operated using freely available system dynamics software. Volume 3 of the System Zoo contains simulation models of economic and social systems and global development, among them: production, stocks and orders, marketing and consumption, competition, life planning, employment, ecotax, escalation, dependence, aggression, population and community development, debt crisis, globalization, the world models of the Club of Rome (by Forrester and the Meadows group) and examples of nonnumerical knowledge processing applied to impact assessment and decision processes. The System Zoo collection of simulation models is particularly well-suited for teaching, training, and research projects at all levels from high school to university, and for individual study. Volume 1 of the System Zoo contains simulation models of elementary systems, and of systems from the fields of physics and engineering. Volume 2 of the System Zoo presents simulation models related to climate, vegetation, ecosystems and resources. About the author: Hartmut Bossel is Professor Emeritus of environmental systems analysis. He taught for many years at the University of California in Santa Barbara and the University of Kassel, Germany, where he was director of the Center for Environmental Systems Research until his retirement. He holds an engineering degree from the Technical University of Darmstadt, and a Ph.D. degree from the University of California at Berkeley. With a background in engineering, systems science, and mathematical modeling, he has led many research projects and future studies in different countries, developing computer simulation models and decision support systems in the areas of energy supply policy, global dynamics, orientation of behavior, agricultural policy, and forest dynamics and management. He has written numerous books on modeling and simulation of dynamic systems, social change and future paths, and has published widely in the scientific literature in several fields.
