The Design and Sustainability of Renewable Energy Incentives
This study provides economic models of the sustainability and affordability of renewable energy support schemes alongside operational advice on how the regulatory design may need to be modified to minimize the impact on the budget and be affordable to the poor, as well as how to identify and fill the financing gap.
Mathematics for Ecology and Environmental Sciences
This volume discusses the rich and interesting properties of dynamical systems that appear in ecology and environmental sciences. It provides a fascinating survey of the theory of dynamical systems in ecology and environmental science. Each chapter introduces students and scholars to the state-of-the-art in an exciting area, presents new results, and inspires future contributions to mathematical modeling in ecology and environmental sciences.
World Bank Investment in Vocational Education and Training
The challenge facing future World Bank investment in vocational education and training is to bring past successes in middle-income countries to the lower income countries. Strategies naturally will have to vary greatly from country to country.
Advances in Applied Mathematics
This volume contains contributions from the Gulf International Conference in Applied Mathematics, held at the Gulf University for Science & Technology. The proceedings reflects the three major themes of the conference. The first of these was mathematical biology, including a keynote address by Professor Philip Maini. The second theme was computational science/numerical analysis, including a keynote address by Professor Grigorii Shishkin. The conference also addressed more general applications topics, with papers in business applications, fluid mechanics, optimization, scheduling problems and engineering applications, as well as a keynote by Professor Ali Nayfeh.
Oil Price Instability, Hedging and an Oil Stabilization Fund
Venezuela could use market- based risk management instruments to reduce short- run risk on oil prices and to complement an oil stabilization fund. Using such instruments would decrease the probability that the stabilization fund would run out of funds, and the fund could be significantly smaller.
Ecoviolence
Ecoviolence explores links between environmental scarcities of key renewable resources_such as cropland, fresh water, and forests_and violent rebellions, insurgencies, and ethnic clashes in developing countries. Detailed contemporary studies of civil violence in Chiapas, Gaza, South Africa, Pakistan, and Rwanda show how environmental scarcity has played a limited to significant role in causing social instability in each of these contexts. Drawing upon theory and key findings from the case studies, the authors suggest that environmental scarcity will worsen in many poor countries in coming decades and will become an increasingly important cause of major civil violence.
Economic Development and the Debt Crisis
Debtors and creditors, including the international institutions, should work toward longer-term adjustment plans that ensure debtor countries of adequate resource flows over several years and that lead to needed policy changes during the period of adjustment.
