This groundbreaking book presents an innovative predictive concept in geographical ecology that reveals local and regional mechanisms of global environmental changes. This work provides environmental scientists with formalized tools for analysis and prediction that can be applied to real-world ecological challenges. Ecological modeling through the application of discrete mathematics for processing extensive empirical data from field and laboratory landscape studies.Empirical simulation of forecasts is implemented as a reproduction of predicted scenarios of biogeocoenotic systems according to the laws of their basic spatial organization, with the fundamental properties of ergodicity of the natural environment. The methodology presented transforms geographical ecology into a more precise and quantifiable discipline capable of addressing complex environmental dynamics.This monograph is primarily intended for specialists in ecological modeling and forecasting, and ecological planning in forestry. Additionally, as it draws from the Russian school of landscape science-an approach not widely familiar to many Western European and American researchers-the book offers valuable theoretical and methodological insights for both landscape scientists and ecologists across various specializations. Researchers seeking innovative approaches to understanding environmental change will find this work particularly valuable for its unique perspective and practical applications.

This book summarizes the history, system, and current situation of microfinance in Cambodia, examining how microfinance institutions have evolved from the 1990s to the present day. It then looks at the remaining challenges for financial inclusion, and the future directions for microfinance institutions in the country.The book begins with an overview of the microfinance sector in Cambodia, covering key events, the regulatory framework, and key stakeholders. It evaluates the role of microfinance institutions in poverty reduction, as well as the current state of financial literacy amongst microfinance borrowers. Reviewing key policies such as the 2017 interest rate ceiling imposed by the National Bank of Cambodia, as well as government measures and programmes aimed at improving household financial literacy and protecting borrowers, the book provides readers with evidence-based insights into current developments and prospects in Cambodia's microfinance sector. The role and impact of FinTech on Cambodia's microfinance sector is also explored.Providing a comprehensive picture of the reality of microfinance in Cambodia, this book will interest students, researchers, and policymakers concerned with economic development in Southeast Asia.

Routledge Advances in Social Work

This book introduces an innovative, experiential and participatory approach to social work education and community transformation. Community Social Labs (CSL) is systematically presented as both an epistemological framework and methodology for co-creating locally grounded solutions to problems that confront communities in the global south. With a focus on empirical experiences from Uganda, Rwanda, and Tanzania, this volume challenges readers to recognize communities as co-creators and owners of knowledge, whilst appreciating the role of universities as useful catalysts for societal change. As pedagogy, CSLs offer experiential and context-responsive learning, and they aim to democratize the curriculum to embed local knowledges. Stories directly from the field are used to demonstrate this, narrated first hand by students who participated in this innovative methodology. Thus, this collection offers a balanced and objective assessment of the potential of the approach, and the challenges that come with it.Contributing new insights to the decolonization and indigenization of social work, this book will be a useful tool for scholars and students who wish to advance and challenge their knowledge and social work practice, as well as professionals and organizations in both government and civil society.

Sustainability has become a highly important policy framework for tourism, and the ideals of sustainable development are guiding tourism developers in their planning thinking. This book provides a thorough overview of the key discussions that are focusing on setting the limits to growth in tourism development in local-global nexus. The key focus is on sustainable tourism with a further aim to rethink critically the idea of sustainability in tourism and its relations to carrying capacity, responsibility and other potential frameworks. International and case studies and examples are integrated throughout. This is essential reading for Tourism students.

Earthscan Conservation and Development

This book focuses on human-elephant encounters and relationships, showing how these have been politicized and pose challenges for rural development and conservation. It draws from a sustained ethnography of human-elephant conflict and co-operation in India to address key questions at the interface of biodiversity conservation, animal and development geographies.

Initiative for Policy Dialogue at Columbia: Challenges in Development and Globalization

One of the most pressing issues in development today is the employment challenge in low- and middle-income countries. As more young people enter the labor force--and as structural transformation unfolds amid deindustrialization, technological disruption, and global competition--the question of how to create sufficient decent jobs has become central to the economic future of the Global South. Although this is a shared challenge across developing regions, it is particularly acute in Africa, where rapid demographic change and urbanization are colliding with limited industrial expansion. Bringing together leading international scholars, The Future of Work in Developing Countries examines the employment problem from multiple perspectives. Early chapters develop conceptual frameworks around corporations and the global hierarchy of production. Subsequent contributions investigate the dynamics of structural transformation, the role of firms in linking production and labor to surplus, and the design of industrial and technology policies. Later chapters turn to detailed case studies--especially from Africa--that illustrate the possibilities and limits of different growth paths, and comparative insights from Asia and Latin America provide further perspective. By combining rigorous theoretical analysis with grounded empirical research, this book demonstrates that employment creation is not an automatic byproduct of growth but a political and institutional project. It offers fresh insights for scholars of development, political economy, and economic history, as well as for policy makers seeking strategies to promote inclusive transformation in Africa and beyond.

Routledge International Studies in Business History

For two centuries, multinational enterprises (MNEs) have arrived in waves on Australia's shores. Highly visible and influential household names among them -Ford, IBM, Kodak, Electrolux, ANZ - but also many smaller, lesser-known enterprises. Foreign MNEs in Australia today account for almost half of our top 2000 firms and control over A$1.4 trillion of assets. There is much we do not understand about these important institutions, why they chose to invest here, how they entered, and why some firms survived for long periods, but others exited.The history of MNEs, more than most topics, is inextricably connected to international experience. Across half a century of research, their history has emerged as a vibrant field of investigation in North America, Europe and, increasingly, Asia. MNE activity in Australia, briefly referenced in some of these studies, formed an important part of the global presence of many firms. This is the first history of foreign MNEs in twentieth-century Australia, filling a major gap in the economic and business history literature of Australia and of the history of international business globally. It integrates the important and distinctive Australian experience with an extensive international and comparative scholarship on big business and multinational enterprise.
