Perspektiv på skogen som resurs för hållbar landsbygdsutveckling por Carlsson, Julia

“…Eftersom naturnära boendemiljöer ökar livskvaliteten, folkhälsan och trivseln i alla åldersgrupper kan skogen utgöra en viktig resurs som attraktiv boendemiljö och argument för inflyttning. Med hjälp av en innehållsanalys av lagstiftning, forskning samt kommunens planeringsdokument har ett antal parametrar tagits fram i denna uppsats, som indikerar vad som är viktigt för att gynna landsbygdsutvecklingen på ett hållbart sätt och öka inflyttningen av unga vuxna, med hjälp av kommunens skogliga resurser. …”

Can qualitative and quantitative methods serve complementary purposes for policy research?: evidence from Accra por Maxwell, Daniel G.

“…This paper reviews the way in which qualitative and quantitative methods were used in the Accra study. The argument of the paper is that the complementary use of qualitative and quantitative approaches provides a greater range of insights and perspectives and permits triangulation or the confirmation of findings by different methods, which improves the overall validity of results, and makes the study of greater use to the constituencies to which it was intended to be addressed. …”

Ideology, social theory, and the environment por Sunderlin, William D.

Moreover, the thoughts of these experts tend to be based largely in just one of three competing streams of political thought: the left, the center, or the right. …”

Conceptualising context in institutional reforms of land and natural resource management: the case of Vietnam por Clement, Floriane, Amezaga, Jaime M.

“…We defend a systematic analysis of context, distinguishing between contextual factors affecting the fitness to local socio-ecological conditions and contextual factors that mobilise power such as political-economic interests and prevailing discourses. We illustrate our argument with empirical research on land-tenure reforms that have been implemented since the 1980s in northern Vietnam. …”

The practices and politics of making policy: irrigation management transfer in Mexico por Rap, Edwin, Wester, P.

“…This article argues that policy making is an interactive and ongoing process that transcends the spatio-temporal boundaries drawn by a linear, rational or instrumental model of policy. We construct this argument by analysing the making of the Irrigation Management Transfer (IMT) policy in Mexico in the early 1990s, focusing on different episodes of its re-emergence, standardisation, and acceleration. …”

A proposal for the elimination of export restrictions on food products por Bianchi, Eduardo, Piñeiro, Martín

“…The episodes of higher and volatile food prices during 2007-2008 and 2011-2012 have raised concerns about the role of agricultural export restrictions in further raising international prices and its impact on the food- insecure population in net food-importing developing countries. Although many arguments have been invoked to justify the application of export restrictions, mainly food security concerns, it is clear not only from theoretical studies but also from historical research, that these measures have a multiplier effect on spikes and the volatility of international prices. …”
