Providing useful insights on the use of Multi-Criteria Decision
Analysis (MCDA) in natural resource management, this book examines
a number of empirical applications for several countries and a
variety of natural resources. It is shown that using MCDA in the
management of water, forestry, wetland and other natural resources
can substantially improve the design and implementation of natural
resource and environmental policies. Stakeholder involvement is
also an important determinant of successful resource management and
MCDA provides a useful and effective framework for getting
stakeholders involved in resource management decisions. Using
Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis in Natural Resource Management
gives in-depth analysis of the potential problems in applying these
techniques, including difficulties eliciting required information,
lack of suitable measures for environmental variables and the need
to develop innovative methods to simplify the use of MCDA.
Child labour is a serious and contentious issue throughout the
developing world and it continues to be a problem whose form and
very meaning shifts with social, geographical, economic and
cultural context. While the debate about child labour practice in
developing countries appears to be motivated by growing competition
in labour intensive products brought about by globalization,
studies on this issue are both sparse and lopsided. This important
book aims to shed light on this debate by documenting the
experience of South Asian developing countries which have
experienced rapid income and export growth. Based on evidence from
Bangladesh, India, Nepal, Pakistan and Sri Lanka, this volume aims
to improve our understanding about the link between trade, growth
and child labour practices, as well as management of child labour
in developing countries.
