Описание: The process of food production and distribution has grown into a global corporate system in recent years. This has caused significant impacts on sustainability on an international scale, particularly for developing nations.Establishing Food Security and Alternatives to International Trade in Emerging Economies is a pivotal reference source for the latest scholarly research on agricultural trade relations and trade liberalization in the context of developing countries. Highlighting a range of pertinent topics such as crop productivity, rural development, and value-added agriculture, this book is ideally designed for academics, researchers, graduate students, and practitioners interested in the current state of global food markets.Topics Covered:The many academic areas covered in this publication include, but are not limited to:Climate ChangeCrop ProductivityFood SafetyMaritime PiracyRural DevelopmentTrade PoliciesValue-Added Agriculture

Описание: This paper looks at policy measures that can affect trade and markets, including tariffs, export restrictions and “behind-the-border” domestic support measures such as input and output subsidies, as well as market price support. With trade recognized as being key for the implementation of Agenda 2030, policy-makers will need to ensure that related policy measures are taken into consideration as part of their efforts to achieve Sustainable Development Goal 2 (SDG 2), Zero Hunger.
The targets that set out the level and ambition of SDG 2, as well as trade itself, often constitute distinct policy priorities for governments. Policy measures that are designed to achieve one target may have unintended negative consequences on other targets, both within the country where the measure is applied and in trading partner countries.
The report suggests that it is important that policy-makers identify and recognize areas where difficult trade-offs may be needed between competing policy objectives, and identify ways in which these can be addressed. While the different targets set out under SDG 2 are mutually interdependent and interrelated, it is important to address the trade policy dimension of each component individually as part of a broader plan of action.

Описание: This book examines and assesses the interdependence between sustainability and wellbeing by drawing attention to humans as producers and consumers of cultural expressions in a post-human age. This book will be of great interest to students and researchers interested in sustainability through conceptual and empirical approaches.
Описание: The discussion about energy perspectives beyond 2020, up to 2030 and eventually 2050 has started. There seems to be a verbal consensus on the necessity of ambitious climate change mitigation policies, without a convincing perspective of the necessary policy decisions to be reached in due time. Methods to achieve greenhouse gas reduction as well as energy security vary from aiming for 100% renewable energies and setting up appropriate policy frameworks to implementing a mix of renewables comprising so-called clean fossil and nuclear energy. This book provides an analysis of the different approaches and the reasons why there is no sustainable alternative to aiming for 100% renewables – and how this vision could come true. The book provides an overview and in-depth analysis of a vital debate. It describes how the present policy framework with 2020-targets for the share of renewables, for increase of energy efficiency and for greenhouse gas emissions reduction was developed and how it has been implemented so far. Furthermore, it describes and analyses the emerging debate about the future of our energy system and the necessary next steps and targets leading up to 2030.

Описание: This book deals with an important contemporary policy issue: how best to ensure that an agriculturally-based policy can contribute to the development of rural regions.
Описание: This book explores the interfaces between nature and culture through the perspective of cultural sustainability. It focuses on the nature-culture interface conceptualised as a meeting-place where experiences, practices, policies, ideas and knowledges meet, are negotiated, discussed and resolved.

Описание: This book deals with the important topic of policies for sustainable agriculture, since food insecurity is a growing concern for policy makers and will affect the quality of life and well-being of generations to come. The authors provide a theoretical background to the concept of sustainable agriculture including its recent developments; monitor the current state of sustainability in agriculture in different regions of the world; and evaluate current agricultural policies to propose new solutions. They show practical ways of sustainability measurement that could be applied to different regions. The book takes into account sustainability indicators based on economic, social and environmental aspects and discusses the trade-offs between these three dimensions. It also answers the question of whether current agricultural policies contribute to balancing between the goals of agriculture---that of not just providing food but of contributing to the greater good---and how policies differ and have evolved across the world. Finally, it puts together the best practices of sustainability for the use of policymakers. The book pays particular attention to least developed countries where hunger and malnutrition are high, but where productivity should not come at the expense of environmental and social goals. This book is of use to a wide readership of policy makers, professionals and academics in the social and environmental sciences interested in the improvement of human life through sustainable agricultural policy implementation.
