Connecting Asia
Author: Michael G. Plummer
Publisher: Edward Elgar Publishing
ISBN: 1785363484
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 413
Book Description
This book analyses how closer regional connectivity and economic integration between South Asia and Southeast Asia can benefit both regions. With a focus on the role played by infrastructure and public policies in facilitating this process, it provides a detailed and up-to-date discussion of issues, innovations, and progress. Country studies of national connectivity issues and policies cover Bangladesh, India, Myanmar, Nepal, Sri Lanka, and Thailand, examining major developments in trade and investment, economic cooperation, the role of economic corridors, and regional cooperation initiatives. Thematic chapters explore investment in land and sea transport infrastructure, trade facilitation, infrastructure investment financing, supporting national and regional policies, and model-based estimates of the benefits of integration. They also identify significant opportunities for strengthening these integration efforts as a result of the recent opening up of Myanmar in political, economic, and financial terms. For the first time for these regions, the book employs a state-of-the-art computable general equilibrium (CGE) model incorporating heterogeneous firms to estimate the advantages of integration. Providing perspective on the latest thinking on integration policy, Connecting Asiais an essential resource for academics, policymakers, and business people alike. Contributors: A. Bayley, T. Chalermpalanupap, K. Cheewatrakoolpong, S. Chirathivat, M.I. Chowdhury, M.I. Corpuz, P. De, H. Florento, J.-F. Gautrin, F. Hutchinson, B. Karmacharya, R. Mishra, K.G. Moazzem, P.J. Morgan, N.

Enhancing Regional Governance and Multilateral Cooperation in Maghreb
Author: Andrea Ranelletti
Publisher: Edizioni Nuova Cultura
ISBN: 8833650766
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 234
Book Description
L’ambizione di questo volume è presentare nuovi paradigmi di analisi del processo di integrazione regionale nel 17 Maghreb, da un punto di vista politico, economico e della gestione della sicurezza. Frequentemente trascurata nell’ambito degli “studi comparativi regionali”, il regionalismo maghrebino rappresenta un fenomeno complesso, che può fornire interessanti informazioni sulle “intersezioni dei fattori domestici e internazionali che danno forma alle fortune economiche, agli interessi nell’ambito della sicurezza, e sulle attività culturali degli attori politici” (Katzenstein 1996, 5). Frequently neglected in the field of “comparative regionalist studies”, Maghrebi regionalism represents a complex phenomenon, which could provide interesting information concerning the “intersection of the international and domestic factors that shape the economic fortunes, security interests, and cultural activities of political actors” (Katzenstein 1996, 5).

Cities and Sustainability
Author: S. Mahendra Dev
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 8132223101
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 308
Book Description
The book addresses the sustainability of cities in the context of sustainability science and its application to the city boundary. In doing so it investigates all the components of a city on the basis of sustainability criteria. To achieve sustainability it is essential to adopt an integrated strategy that reflects all sectors within the city boundary and also address the four key normative concepts: the right to develop for all sections, social inclusion, convergence in living standards and shared responsibility and opportunities among sectors and sections. In this book, the individual chapters examine the nodes of sustainability of a city and thus essentially present a large canvas wherein all sustainability-relevant issues are interwoven. This integrative approach is at the heart of the book and offers an extensive, innovative framework for future research on cities and sustainability alike. The book also includes selected case studies that add to the reading and comprehension value of the concepts presented, ensuring a blend of theory and practical case studies to help readers better comprehend the principle of sustainability and its application.
