Описание: Winner of the Forest History Society's 2017 Charles A. Weyerhaeuser Book AwardAmerican Indians and National Forests tells the story of how the U.S. Forest Service and tribal nations dealt with sweeping changes in forest use, ownership, and management over the last century and a half. Indians and U.S. foresters came together over a shared conservation ethic on many cooperative endeavors; yet, they often clashed over how the nation's forests ought to be valued and cared for on matters ranging from huckleberry picking and vision quests to road building and recreation development. Marginalized in American society and long denied a seat at the table of public land stewardship, American Indian tribes have at last taken their rightful place and are making themselves heard. Weighing indigenous perspectives on the environment is an emerging trend in public land management in the United States and around the world. The Forest Service has been a strong partner in that movement over the past quarter century.

Автор: Christine Husmann Название: The Private Sector and the Marginalized Poor: An Assessment of the Potential Role of Business in Reducing Poverty and Marginality in Rural Ethiopia ISBN: 3631671881 ISBN-13(EAN): 9783631671887 Издательство: Peter Lang Рейтинг: Цена: 81430.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: The book examines the role that the private sector can play in reducing poverty and marginality in Ethiopia by providing improved agricultural inputs to marginalized poor farmers. By creating a marginality map the author analyzes who and where the marginalized poor are. Data from a household survey about purchasing behavior, demand and needs indicates that this group can be a promising market segment for the private sector if adequate business models are applied. Yet, an analysis of the institutions governing agricultural input markets shows that investments by the private sector are discouraged by de facto monopolies of the government on crucial elements of the different supply chains, including seed breeding, fertilizer imports and finance.

Название: Voluntary Guidelines on National Forest Monitoring ISBN: 9251096198 ISBN-13(EAN): 9789251096192 Издательство: Mare Nostrum (Eurospan) Рейтинг: Цена: 30490.00 T Наличие на складе: Невозможна поставка. Описание: Establishing and running a National Forest Monitoring System (NFMS) is a complex task for governments. These systems serve to better inform forest-related decisions, thereby supporting the sustainable development of forests at national level. Their formulation requires a long-term vision and interdisciplinary collaboration, which is both a demanding and an exciting endeavour. These guidelines support this process by placing NFMS in the broader context of national forest-related decision processes and addressing a number of relevant strategic, operational and technical points. This publication includes good practice principles and incorporates a set of decision-support tools for planning and implementing a multipurpose NFMS, grounded in nationally appropriate and scientifically sound practices.

Changes in production, demand, supply, and trade patterns; the impact of green building and bioenergy on industry practices and policy infrastructure; and new economies with production advantages and large consumption bases all present challenges and opportunities in the forest sector. With contributions from leading experts in academia and professional organizations, The Global Forest Sector: Changes, Practices, and Prospects fills a gap in the literature that is preventing students, scholars, and policy makers from developing a timely, structured, big-picture view of forest sector business. In addition, the book reviews current thinking on a wide variety of business management issues in the forest sector.
The book covers managing change in the global forest sector and the impact of globalization on forest users. It discusses markets and market forces, new products and product categories, and the influence of China and Russia. The book then examines the environmental paradigm, including environmental activism, sustainability, and the impact of green building and bioenergy. The book concludes with coverage of the role of information technology, corporate social responsibility, innovation, and next steps.
Overall, this book helps readers both develop a bird's eye view of the changes surrounding the forest sector as well as have a magnified view of numerous managerial issues associated with these changes. The content paints a picture of the current and changing forest sector including the state of forests, the nature of markets, the newly emerged patterns of stakeholder impact, and evolution of key business practices. It provides the foundation needed to develop the conservation-based economy required for future success in the global forest sector.
