Moving beyond the current fixation on "state construction," the
interdisciplinary work gathered here explores regulatory authority
in South Sudan's borderlands from both contemporary and historical
perspectives. Taken together, these studies show how emerging
governance practices challenge the bounded categorizations of
"state" and "non-state."
Current international discourse on the new state of South Sudan
seems fixated on the "state construction." This book aims to
broaden the debate by examining the character of regulatory
authority in South Sudan's borderlands in both contemporary and
historical perspective. The contributions gathered here show that
emerging border governance practices challenge the bounded
categorization of "state" and "non-state," especially in the
complex interactions between state, military, and business actors
and power structures. It thus provides a timely and sophisticated
contribution to the literature on African borderlands, examining a
new state in creation at its borders, and providing an
anthropologically and historically informed view of a rapidly
evolving situation.
Although economists have long advocated the use of economic
instruments in the implementation of environmental policy, they
have only recently gained acceptance. There is a growing consensus
within the European Union that both Member States and the
environment would benefit from the use of such incentive-based
economic instruments. Environment, Incentives and the Common Market
has been written by members of the Study Group on the Environment
and Economics of the National Environmental Forum, which includes
economists and social scientists from all the major Dutch
universities and research institutes. The book covers a wide range
of topics on the use of taxation and tradeable permits in a variety
of abatement policies. It concludes with comments on political
feasibility.
