Social Conflict, Economic Development and Extractive Industry : Evidence from South America
ISBN: 9780415620710 / Angielski / Twarda / 2011 / 280 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The extraction of minerals, oil and gas has a long and ambiguous history in development processes -- in North America, Europe, Latin America and Australasia. Extraction has yielded wealth, regional identities and in some cases capital for industrialization. In other cases its main heritages have been social conflict, environmental damage and underperforming national economies. As the extractive economy has entered another boom period over the last decade, not least in Latin America, the countries in which this boom is occurring are challenged to interpret this ambiguity. Will the extractive...

Institutional Pathways to Equity: Addressing Inequality Traps
ISBN: 9780821370131 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 280 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Questions of equity and inequality have moved to the center of debates on development and poverty reduction. This reflects growing awareness that even countries with high rates of growth can experience stagnating or increasing inequality, and that inequality can itself limit the poverty reducing effects of growth. Indeed, recent work indicates that, in addition to its intrinsic value, equity should be valued for its positive impacts on growth and the poverty-reducing effects of such growth. These concerns are coupled with questions of governance. This is because institutional arrangements...
