Water Diplomacy in Action
Complex water problems cannot be resolved by numbers or narratives. Contingent and negotiated approaches are necessary for actionable outcome. In the face of a constantly changing array of interconnected water issues that cross multiple boundaries, the challenge is how to translate solutions that emerge from science and technology into the context of real-world policy and politics. Water Diplomacy in Action addresses this task by synthesizing two emerging ideas––complexity science and negotiation theory––to understand and manage risks and opportunities for an uncertain water future. Rooted in the ideas of complexity science and mutual gains negotiation, this edited volume shows why traditional systems engineering approaches may not work for complex problems, what emerging tools and techniques are needed and how these are used to resolve complex water problems.
Understanding German Real Estate Markets
Real estate is the biggest real asset class in an economy, and Germany is the biggest economy in Europe. This implies opportunities as well as specific risks for investors and policy makers. As the German real estate markets have by and large been spared severe disruptions in the course of the economic crisis, many questions arise for investors and academics alike. What are the key institutional characteristics of the German real estate markets that make it different? What are the short and long-term drivers of demand and supply? Which regional and functional market segments are most likely to outperform in the next few years? What are the most important pitfalls for investors in Germany? This book gives answers to these and many more questions. The editors have invited a broad range of extensively knowledgeable practitioners and academics from across the relevant real estate spectrum, i.e. economic, legal, tax, planning and financing issues, to express their views. There is no better English publication that gives such a profound and simultaneously entertaining overview of Germany’s real estate markets.

Infrastructure as Business
Infrastructure as Business brings new emphasis and clarity to the importance of private investment capital in large-scale infrastructure projects, introducing investors, policymakers, and other stakeholders to a key element that is surprisingly absent from the discourse on public-private partnerships. Despite the importance of modernizing infrastructure across the globe, governments often face challenges in securing the necessary capital to meet future need, as well as developing policy to meet these goals. Explaining the structure of the private investment universe and flow of private capital in such projects, this book ambitiously aims to bridge this "infrastructure gap" by elucidating sha...
»Heuschrecken« im öffentlichen Raum
Nach der teuren Bankenrettung und neuer Staatsverschuldung drängen Regierungen und Investoren mehr denn je auf das angebliche Heilmittel »Public Private Partnership«. Bei diesem Finanzinstrument übernimmt der Investor nicht nur den Bau etwa einer Entsorgungsanlage, sondern auch Planung, Finanzierung und Betrieb, während die öffentliche Hand im Gegenzug 20 bis 30 Jahre lang Miete zahlt. Dieses Buch, das nun in einer erweiterten zweiten Auflage erscheint, bietet Falldarstellungen über Akteure, Lobbyisten-Netzwerke und Gesetze in Deutschland und legt die Charakteristika von PPP minutiös offen, die den Medien und Politikern üblicherweise vorenthalten bleiben. Auch die betriebs- und volkswirtschaftlichen Folgen auf nationaler sowie auf EU-Ebene werden erstmals zusammenfassend dargelegt.
