After the negotiations: assessing the impact of free trade agreements in Southern Africa por Lewis, Jeffrey D., Robinson, Sherman, Thierfelder, Karen

“…By separatelymodeling South Africa and the rest of southern Africa, the model can be used to evaluate how alternative SADC regional trade strategies can influence how the EU deal affects the region's economies; by distinguishing among major trading partners (EU, North America, East Asia), the simulations can help illuminate how the trade deal will likely affect current trade patterns The empirical results lead to a number of conclusions: (1) trade creation dominates trade diversion for the region under all FTA arrangements; (2) the rest of southern Africa benefits from an FTA between the EU and South Africa — the recently signed bilateral agreement is not a “beggar thy neighbor” policy; (3) the rest of southern Africa gains more from zero-tariff access to EU markets than from a partial (50 percent) reduction in global tariffs; and (4) the South African economy is not large enough to serve as a growth pole for the region. …”

Using seminatural and simulated habitats for seed germination ecology of banana wild relatives por Kallow, S., Quaghebeur, K., Panis, Bartholomeus, Janssens, S.B., Dickie, J., Gueco, L., Swennen, Rony L., Vandelook, F.

“…Our focal taxa were banana crop wild relatives (Musa acuminata subsp. burmannica, Musa acuminata subsp. siamea, and Musa balbisiana), native to tropical and subtropical South-East Asia. Tests were carried out in Belgium, where we performed germination tests in relation to foliage-shading/exposure to solar radiation and seed burial depth, as well as seed survival and dormancy release in the soil. …”

Impact of climate variability on internal migration in the Philippines during 2005 – 2010 por Weinreb, Alex, Stecklov, Guy, Arslan, Aslihan, Molina, Luis, Grosjean, Godefroy

“…The various manifestations of climate change including extreme events that are expected to get more frequent and more intense, and slow-onset changes that increasingly affect livelihoods in a context of international climate coordination failure add fuel to the fire. Countries in South-East Asia are among the most vulnerable to climate change, and future climate scenarios predict increases in multiple indicators, including temperatures (average, minimum and maximum), annual precipitation, number of consecutive too wet and dry days, among others. …”
