Beyond the trees
We examined equity and justice in forest restoration programs in Madhesh province in Nepal. We selected four sites that have three different tenure regimes, namely, community forest (Baghbhairav and Musahar), collaborative forest management (Tamagadhi), and forest protection area (Dhanushadham). The primary data were collected through focus group discussion, key informant interviews, field observations, and forest cover change analysis. We used A…
Effet de la migration internationale de main‐d'œuvre sur l'agriculture au Népal
Les auteurs étudient l'effet de la migration internationale temporaire de main‐d'œuvre sur l'abandon de terres cultivées, l'adoption de techniques d'intensification agricole et la diversification des moyens de subsistance au Népal. Ils appliquent des méthodes empiriques d'inférence causale en s'appuyant sur des données représentatives au niveau national. Ils établissent que les familles de migrants ont plus de 50 pour cent de chances en plus de l…
Climate Change and Community Resilience
This open access book documents myriads of ways community-based climate change adaptation and resilience programs are being implemented in South Asian countries. The narrative style of writing in this volume makes it accessible to a diverse audience from academics and researchers to practitioners in various governmental, non-governmental and international agencies. At a time when climate change presents humanity with a gloomy future, the stories …
Making incremental progress
Reducing emissions from deforestation and forest degradation (REDD+) encompasses a range of incentives for developing countries to slow, halt and reverse forest loss and associated forest carbon emissions. Where there is high dependence on biomass energy, cleaner cooking transitions are key to REDD+’s success. Given the poor track record of efforts to promote clean cooking, more evidence is needed on the potential for REDD+ to reduce unsustainabl…
Value of cleaner neighborhoods
Municipal solid waste management is a challenging issue in developing countries. An unclean neighborhood could have a significant negative impact on housing property values too as it may lead to numerous diseases in addition to diminished aesthetic value. This study examines the effects of municipal solid waste collection services at the neighborhood level on housing property values using the hedonic price model. We use a sub-sample of nationally…
Valuing water provisioning service of Broadleaf and Chir Pine forests in the Himalayan region
Costs, cobenefits, and community responses to Redd
Sharma, B. P., P. Shyamsundar, M. Nepal, S. K. Pattanayak, and B. S. Karky. 2017. Costs, cobenefits, and community responses to REDD+: a case study from Nepal. Ecology and Society 22(2):34. https://doi.org/10.5751/ES-09370-220234
Differences in demand for watershed services
Building skills for sustainability
In South Asia, as local and regional environment problems grow, societal demand for new sustainability knowledge has outpaced its supply by traditional institutions and created a niche for research networks and think tanks. We discuss the role of networks in producing knowledge by using the South Asian Network for Development and Environmental Economics (SANDEE) as a case study. We argue that geographic research networks can contribute to the gro…
More Inequality, More Killings
The hypothesis of inequality as the source of violent conflict is investigated empirically in the context of killings by Nepalese Maoists in their People's War against their government during 1996–2003. The dependent variable is the total number of people killed during that period by Maoist rebels in each of 3,857 villages. Inequality is measured by the Gini, the Esteban‐Ray polarization index, and four other between‐groups indexes. Using models …
Human Rights Violations, Corruption, and the Policy of Repression
Quantitative cross‐national research on human rights violations and repression has made considerable progress in identifying and eliminating economic and political factors that influence the use of torture and killing by governments. Warfare tends to increase violations, democracy—notably full democracy—and trade tends to inhibit violations. Where motives have been considered, this research has generally assumed a strategic motivation for governm…
Opportunity, Democracy, and the Exchange of Political Violence
With more than 12,000 deaths in nine years, a homegrown Maoist insurgency, reinforced by ethnic and socioeconomic cleavages, has resulted in high levels of political violence and human rights violations in Nepal. With fresh district-level data and drawing on theoretical insights from both the conflict and human rights literatures, research that has relied primarily on cross-national comparisons, the authors develop and test hypotheses using a sub…
