Wildlife crime poses a serious and irrefutable risk to global biodiversity and is a driver of the current global extinction crisis. Southeast Asia accounts for up to a quarter of global demand for illegal wildlife products, and is also both a source and transit region for this transnational trade. This report examines the governance frameworks for countering illegal wildlife trade in Indonesia, Singapore, Thailand and Viet Nam. After assessing the effectiveness of several responses to wildlife crime in these countries, the report provides recommendations for strengthening the capacities of the institutions involved and improving strategies to counter illegal wildlife trade.

Описание: Policies Affecting Resource Allocation Across Tradable Sectors And Those Affecting The Incentives To Produce Tradable Activities Are Key Determinants Of Macroeconomic Balance And Growth. Computable General Equilibrium Models Have Made Significant Contributions To Both Types Of Policies. With Advancements In Computing Power And Software, These Models Have Become Easy To Implement And Are Now Widespread. The Question Then Is When And How To Formulate Them To Avoid The 'Black Box' Syndrome.This Book Seeks To Address These Issues Through Carefully Selected Essays That Analyse How To Model General Equilibrium Linkages In A Single Economy, Across Developing And Developed Economies, And Across Both Micro And Macro Policies. Micro Policies Examined Include Tariffs Quotas And Vers, The Choice Of Taxes To Maximize Government Revenue, Migration And Remittances, And The Political Economy Of Tariff Setting. Applications On Macro Policies Cover Capital Inflows, Real Exchange Rate Determination, And The Modeling Of The Effects Of Adjustment Policies On Income Distribution.The Book Provides Insights On The Development Of A Family Of Models For Diverse Policy Choices, Focusing On The Ways To Model The Following: Links Between Tradable And Non-Tradable Activities, Labor Markets, And Portfolio Choices Given Limited Capital Mobility. Selected Essays Are All Inspired By Specific Policy Problems, Including The Adaptation To External Shocks (I.E. Oil), Consequences Of Capital Inflows, Determinants Of Migration And Associated Remittances, The Productivity Of Foreign Aid, And Rent-Seeking Activities Under Trade Regimes With Non-Price Trade Restrictions. Examples In This Book Lay Out The Theoretical Foundations, Alongside A Variety Of Applications, To Help Formulate Coherent And Transparent Models For Policy Analysis. Archetype Economies Are Extensively Used To Show How Differences In Economic Structure Influence The Effects Of Policies. Graduate Students And Policy Analysts Interested In Modeling Will Find This A Useful Compendium Of Studies.

Описание: Based on forecasts of global population growth, food security will remain an important economic development issue over the next several decades. In addition, real food prices have risen in recent years after decades of decline, bringing the issue of food security even further into the public spotlight. However, there is no global food shortage: the problem is one of moving food, often across borders, from surplus production areas to deficit ones at prices that low-income consumers in developing countries can afford. Trade can be an excellent buffer for domestic fluctuations in food supply. World output of a given food commodity is far less variable than output in individual countries so increased trade integration holds considerable potential to stabilize food prices, boost returns to farmers and reduce the prices faced by consumers. Trade liberalization protects national food markets against domestic shocks by allowing more food to be imported in times of shortage and exported in periods of plenty. Historically, however, most countries have chosen to take the opposite approach by restricting imports of food and discouraging exports to keep domestic markets isolated from international shocks. Food commodity markets, therefore, remain highly distorted despite the wave of liberalization that has swept world trade since the 1980s. In addition to examining the determinants of recent food price spikes, Trade Policy and Food Security explores the impact of food prices on economic welfare, and how the effect of price changes on food security and economic welfare in developing countries can be mitigated through appropriate national policies at the border. It highlights the importance of both the extension and continued application of existing WTO disciplines on trade-distorting agricultural trade policies as a key resolution to the collective action problem witnessed during the recent food price spikes, whereby unilateral border policies--especially export controls--simply exacerbated the initial price increases.
