Editors’ Foreword
Law and the Environment
Of rivers, law and justice in the Anthropocene
Beginning in the 2010s, rivers have captured the legal imagination of judges, legislators and activists alike, as part of a rapidly growing phenomenon described by UN Special Rapporteur on human rights and the environment, David Boyd as 'a legal revolution that could save the world'. Investigating river cases in jurisdictions as diverse as Aotearoa New Zealand, Colombia, India, the United States and Australia, and following Nicole Graham's sugges…
A future with no individual ownership is not a happy one
The World Economic Forum (WEF) predicted that, by 2030, individuals would own nothing and be happy. This article examines the prediction from a property perspective. We situate the prediction by considering the societal transformations that inform it and show how they concern property. We use property theory to advance property as a socio-legal construct that has formed around the human-thing relationships that are claimed to be deeply embedded i…
Speaking with the river
This article is underpinned by the hypothesis that if Australia is to reassess and improve its relationship to and use of rivers and river systems, then more holistic ways of understanding rivers, and strategies for representing and communicating this understanding, must be developed and brought together. Held over two days in August 2019 at the Lismore campus of Southern Cross University, 'Speaking With the River' was an interdisciplinary sympos…

Yoongoorrookoo
Since the momentous release of the Montecristi Constitution of Ecuador in 2008, which recognised Nature, or Pacha Mama, as a subject of rights, the rights of Nature movement across the world has gained exponential momentum, with numerous jurisdictions worldwide now recognising some form of legal subjectivity vested upon Nature. In particular, since 2017, river personhood has dominated news headlines around the world as one of the most recognisabl…
Linked-in by FDI
This study combines evidence from interviews in seven countries with (i) government institutions responsible for attracting Foreign Direct Investment (FDI), (ii) 102 multinationals (MNEs), and (iii) 226 domestic firms linked to these foreign affiliates as suppliers, customers, or competitors, to identify whether relations between MNEs and domestic firms lead to direct transfers of knowledge/technology. We first document that there are relatively …
Workers, Managers, Productivity
This open access book provides a glimpse into the Japanese management technique, Kaizen, and the ways it has been exported around the developing world. With case studies from across Africa and Asia, this book will be of value to scholars, policymakers and advocates of sustainable development
Property, values, and the empirics of place
Diverse property patterns yield unique ‘maps’ of community and place. This paper explores the grounded implications such maps reveal; to canvass the ways in which bespoke private, public and common land patterns inform the values and sense of place of material communities. To measure property values to geographic space is an amorphous and difficult task, akin to catching the early morning mist in your hands. Drawing on cartographic tools as well …
Of Protest, the Commons, and Customary Public Rights
This article explores an ancient tale of customary public rights that starts and ends with the landmark decision of Brown v Tasmania. In Brown, Australia’s highest court recognised a public right to protest in forests. Harking back 800 years to the limits of legal memory, and the Forest Charter of 1217, this right is viewed through the metaphor of the lawful forest, a relational notion of property at the margins of legal orthodoxy. Inherent to th…
Manufacturing Transformation
Abstract While it is possible for economies to grow based on abundant land or natural resources, more often structural change—the shift of resources from low-productivity to high-productivity sectors—is the key driver of economic growth. Structural transformation is vital for Africa. The region’s much-lauded growth turnaround since 1995 has been the result of fewer economic policy mistakes, robust commodity prices, and new discoveries of natural …

Common Property and the Age of Aquarius
In this article, the institution of common property is considered from the perspective of the phenomenon of early 1970s Australian rural intentional communities. The article analyses the property structures adopted by these communities, and the extent to which some property structures successfully internalised common property rights and norms within the strictures of private fee simple title. It concentrates as a case study on the Northern Rivers…
Remittances, Consumption And Investment In Ghana
This paper uses a new, nationally-representative household survey from Ghana to analyze within a rigorous econometric framework how the receipt of internal remittances (from within Ghana) and international remittances (from African or other countries) affects the marginal spending behavior of households on a broad range of consumption and investment goods, including food, education and housing. Contrary to other studies, which find that remittanc…
The Impact Of Remittances On Poverty And Inequality In Ghana
"This paper uses a new, 2005/06 nationally-representative household survey to analyze the impact of internal remittances (from Ghana) and international remittances (from African and other countries) on poverty and inequality in Ghana. To control for selection and endogeneity, it uses a two-stage multinomial logit model with instrumental variables focusing on variations in migration networks and remittances among various ethno-religious groups in …
Make it easy on your readers
This article presents ideas on how to serve well the readers of an environmental impact document. It begins with a description of the characteristics and needs of an impact document's diverse potential readership. Then, given that readership, three topics are addressed: focus (what do you need to say); organization (where do you say it); and style (how do you say it). Keywords: environmental impact assessmentenvironmental impact documentation

International Migration, Remittances,and Poverty in Developing Countries
Few studies have examined the impact of international migration and remittances on poverty in a broad cross-section of developing countries. The authors try to fill this gap by constructing a new data set on poverty, international migration, and remittances for 74 low- and middle-income developing countries. Four key findings emerge: 1) International migration-defined as the share of a country's population living abroad-has a strong, statistical …

The Impact of Subsidies on X-Efficiency in LDC Industry
THE X-inefficiency costs of protection and industrial concentration have been topics of considerable interest in the literature on economic development. Balassa (1975) and Bergsman (1974), for example, have argued that protection, by increasing X-inefficiency, generates a major welfare cost which is not captured by traditional costs of protection calculations, and White (1976) has examined the relationship between inappropriate factor intensities…

Productivity Change and Dynamic Comparative Advantage
This paper proposes a simple decomposition of the widely used DRC measure of international competitiveness into three distinct elements: (1) changes in international prices, (2) changes in production techniques and (3) total factor productivity change. The decomposition provides a clear analytical link between two largely separate methodologies for assessing economic performance, cost-benefit indicators based on the world price rule and total fac…
