Credit Rationing and Institutional Constraint: Evidence from Rural China
ISBN: 9783631582855 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 146 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. The availability of credit has long occupied a central place in development strategies. Rural credit institutions are more than an instrument of intermediation, they also handle risk, mobilize and disseminate information about market and technology. Given the informational problems and innate disadvantages of rural credit markets, the rationale for laissez-faire and liberalization is by no means based on a sound understanding of the state s role in redressing market failures. This study examines the rural credit market in China, its impacts on agricultural transformation and the state s role...

Land Property Rights and Natural Resource Use: An Analysis of Household Behavior in Rural China
ISBN: 9783631591437 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 166 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. The general objective of this volume is to assess the effects of China s rural land property system on land allocation and land use. For almost 30 years, farmers have individual land use rights, but a number of problems remain. Land reallocations cause tenure insecurity and an underinvestment in land. Land use rights are not allowed to be used as collateral for accessing credit. Furthermore, women are discriminated in the land allocation process. These issues are analyzed at the household as well as the village level. The results show that there exists significant heterogeneity rather than a...

Micronutrient malnutrition is a serious public health problem, especially in developing countries.

This work extends the traditional perspective and analyzes the effects of income, food price, and sociodemographic developments on vitamin and mineral adequacies at the household level. The author proposes two approaches to estimate income and price elasticities of nutrient consumption and presents a procedure for assessing the nutrition situation in populations based on food...
