Full textENGLISH ABSTRACT: In this era of globalisation, the world is becoming more economically, politically and ecologically interdependent, that is, there is a growing mutual vulnerability between actors. The conditions of growing interdependence produce specific challenging circumstances for the achievement of particular goals, -includinq that of sustainable development. The Southern African context holds further obstacles to such development, which include poverty, inequality, a history of racial conflict and colonialism, and a regional economy on the semi-periphery of the global economy. It is my assertion that it is in the mutual self-interest of states and other stakeholders (e.g. communities) to approach this dilemma through transnational co-operation under the ethical umbrella of sustainable development. Thus this thesis seeks to discover to what extent the construction of Transborder Conservation Areas (TBCAs), relatively large areas which straddle the borders between two or more countries and cover natural systems incorporating one or more protected areas, can meet the criteria of sustainable development, given these conditions. The three primary criteria used for measuring sustainable development are community-based development; close linkages between the environment and development; and co-operation on all levels. The Kgalagadi TBCA, formally recognised on the 7th of April 1999 between South Africa and Botswana, serves as the case study. The conceptual framework used for the analysis is a theory of cooperation, as it applies to the field of International Relations. The key concepts employed here are those of interdependence, co-operation, sustainable development and institutionalisation. The research centers around three key issues: If sustainable development is the way forward for Southern Africa, do TBCAs reflect and fulfill the criteria as set forth by sustainable development? What does the experience of TBCAs in Southern Africa tell us about co-operation, recognising that TBCAs can only succeed if it has a sound base in the awareness and engagement of people? And, how best can decision-makers go about establishing TBCAs? Ultimately the thesis is a call to Southern African countries to embrace this new form of utilising the environment.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: In hierdie era van globalisering is die wêreld besig om ekonomies, polities en ekologies meer interafhanklik te word, met ander woorde, daar is 'n toenemende wedersydse kwesbaarheid tussen akteurs. Toenemende interafhanklikheid produseer spesifieke uitdagings ten opsigte van die bereiking van sekere doelwitte, insluitend volgehoue ontwikkeling. Daar is besondere hindernisse op die weg na volgehoue ontwikkeling in Suidelike Afrika, is byvoorbeeld armoede, ongelykheid, en verlede gekenmerk deur rassekonflik en kolonialisme, asook en regionale ekonomie op die semi-periferie van die globale ekonomie. Dit is in die wedersydse belang van state en ander betrokke partye (bv. gemeenskappe) om hierdie dilemma te benader deur middel van transnasionale samewerking onder die etiese sambreel van volgehoue ontwikkeling. Hierdie tesis probeer vasstel tot watter mate die skep van Transnasionale Bewaringsgbiede, of sogenaamde "Vredesparke" (Transborder Conservation Areas = TBCAs), d.w.s. relatiewe groot areas aan weerskante van die grens(-e) tussen twee of meer lance en wat natuurlike stelsels dek wat ten minste een beskermde gebied inkorporeer, kan voldoen aan die kriteria vir volgehoue ontwikkeling, gegewe die bogenoemde konteks. Die drie primêre kriteria wat gebruik word om volgehoue ontwikkeling te meet is gemeenskapsgebaseerde ontwikkeling; die hegtheid van die verhouding tussen die omgewing en ontwikkeling; en samewerking op alle vlakke. Die Kgalagadi TBCA, amptelik op 7 April 1999 tussen Suid-Afrika en Botswana erken, dien as die gevallestudie. Die konseptueie raamwerk wat gebruik word in die analise is 'n teorie van samewerking, soos dit van toepassing is op die veld van Internasionale Betrekkinge. Die sleutelkonsepte wat gebruik word is interafhanklikheid, samewerking, volgehoue ontwikkeling en institusionalisering. Die navorsing sentreer rondom drie sleutelkwessies: lndien volgehoue ontwikkeling die weg vorentoe vir Suidelike Afrika is, weerspiëel en voldoen TBCAs aan die vereistes van volgehoue ontwikkeling? Wat kan ons wys raak oor samewerking na aanleiding van ons ervaring van TBCAs in Suidelike Afrika, gegewe dat TBCAs slegs kan slaag indien dit gefundeer is op gemeenskapsbewustheid- en deelname? Laastens, wat is die beste manier waarvolgens besluitnemers TBCAs kan vestig? Ten slotte is hierdie studie 'n beroep op die besluitnemers In Suidelike Afrika om hierdie nuwe wyse waarop die omgewing benut kan word, te ondersteun.

Full textO propósito desta dissertação é compreender, a partir dos pressupostos conceituais e historiográficos, a participação da Noruega na elaboração da estratégia de cooperação internacional para o desenvolvimento, com o foco na parceria noruego-brasileira a partir de 2006 até 2013. A parceria estratégica entre o Brasil e a Noruega é pensada de modo que contribua significativamente em áreas prioritárias, neste caso na Amazônia Legal em clima, meio ambiente e desenvolvimento sustentável. Esta pesquisa descreve as ações governamentais da Noruega para a cooperação para o desenvolvimento, por meio da sua contribuição ao Fundo da Amazônia, com base no documento intitulado Estratégia do governo norueguês para cooperação entre Brasil e Noruega- Novas perspectivas para um relacionamento de longa data. Com o objetivo de reduzir as emissões por desmatamento e degradação florestal, a cooperação entre a Noruega e o Brasil (REDD+) constitui parte importante da iniciativa climática e florestal do governo norueguês. Por meio da parceria estratégica, a Noruega almeja contribuir para a produção sustentável de alimentos e, consequentemente, para a geração de empregos na Região Amazônica. Releva-se a atuação norueguesa na cooperação internacional para o desenvolvimento, o que permite a Noruega, poder de influência nas relações internacionais. Por meio dos argumentos explicitados, espera-se que este estudo contribua para a compreensão de como o Estado norueguês e, em específico a diplomacia norueguesa se formula para defender seus interesses por meio da sua parceria internacional com o Brasil.
The purpose of this dissertation is to comprehend, through a conceptual and historical perspective, the participation of Norway in the elaboration of the international cooperation strategy for development, with focus on the Norwegian-Brazilian partnership, since 2006 until 2013. The strategic partnership between Brazil and Norway it is viewed to contribute significantly in areas of strategic importance, in this case in the Legal Amazon in environment and sustainable development. This research describes the Norwegians governmental actions under its donation to the Amazon Fund. Based on the document The Norwegian Governments strategy for cooperation between Brazil and Norway: new perspectives on a long-standing relationship. With the objective of reducing gas emissions by human cutting trees and deforestation, the Brazilian and Norwegian cooperation (REDD+) represents an important role of the Norwegian forest climate initiative. Through the strategic partnership, Norway aims to contribute to the sustainable food production and as a result to new employment in the Amazon Region. It is important to consider Norways role in cooperation and development field. This in the end guarantees to Norway, the power of influencing in international relations. By this, it is hoped that this academic study contributes to the comprehension of how the Norwegians state, specifically the Norwegians diplomacy, formulates itself in order to pursue its national interests by its international cooperation with Brazil.

This research sought to locate the provenances of the Comunidade dos Países de Língua Portuguesa, showing how it was possible to build an international organization based on the common element that is the language, and how the CPLP consolidated and strengthened itself in the emergence of a new policy perspective, which interferes with the way of producing the living and the life on the planet. In view of this, it was possible to verify through the production of knowledge and truths related to diplomatic approaches between Portugal and Brazil, and later, with the end of colonialism in lusophone Africa and Asia, the emergence of the new national states for the institutionalization of the organization. In the mid-1990s, the consolidated community is crossed by apparent common identity, kindness and cooperation, and multiculturalism to demarcate the geographical differences and particular characteristics of each member state. In the wake of sustainable development and the demand for the production of human capital relegated by neoliberalism, it is possible to map the political transformations of the language and the various strategic plans of the CPLP to meet the global development goals and strengthen in a planetary environment
Essa pesquisa buscou situar as proveniências da Comunidade de Língua Portuguesa, mostrando como foi possível a construção de uma organização internacional baseada no elemento comum que é a língua, e como a CPLP se consolidou e se fortaleceu no despontar de uma nova perspectiva da política, que interfere no modo de produzir o vivo e a vida no e do planeta. Diante disso, foi possível constatar por meio de produção de saberes e verdades relacionadas às aproximações diplomáticas entre Portugal e Brasil, e posteriormente, com o fim do colonialismo na África lusófona e na Ásia, o surgimento dos novos Estados nacionais para a institucionalização da organização. Em meados da década de 1990, a comunidade consolidada é atravessada pela aparente identidade comum, de amabilidade e cooperação, e pelo multiculturalismo para demarcar as diferenças geográficas e as características particulares de cada Estadomembro. No rastro do desenvolvimento sustentável e na demanda da produção de capital humano relegada pelo neoliberalismo é possível mapear as transformações políticas da língua e os diversos planos estratégicos da CPLP para atender os objetivos de desenvolvimento globais e se fortalecer em ambiente planetário

Full textThis study analyses the different points of view that lead to a better understanding of international public policies addressing climate change mitigation in the beginning of the XXIth century. In a truly worrying context according to current scientific data, it questions the international community’s ability to act upon the current environment crisis. Many studies and policies about climate change are focusing on the ability to adapt to climate change; but it is important to know how policies that mitigate the climate change still remain legitimate and gather interest. Based on a large number of research publications and national or international public reports, this bibliographic study produces a review of the international management of the current environment crisis; an evaluation of the most important issues it reveals for the next decades about our society’s models (political, economic, social, ethical...); an assessment of the difficulties it creates for international negotiations (threats to national sovereignties, protection of specific interests, roles sharing between various stakeholders, organization and logistics of complicated means...); and finally an analysis of the different outlooks for the next decades depending on the international community’s level of action in the near term (magnitude of temperature warming and its consequences, associated political and economic models, form and extent of international cooperation...). First, this study addresses the climate change process itself and its context within the evolution of our contemporary society (Part I). Second, it exposes the great difficulties facing today’s politicians to tackle the environmental crisis (Part II). Then, it analyses the systematic inability of the global economic model to assume by itself the full responsibility of climate change mitigation (Part III). Finally, this study presents a number of considerations regarding the need to establish an equitable and sustainable economic development at the global scale (Part IV)

Full textDans un contexte de querelles, de tensions et d’affrontements politiques, économiques et environnementaux entre lespays Nord-Sud, le droit du développement durable apparait comme un instrument potentiel de résolution des conflitsNord-Sud et de conciliation du développement économique avec l’environnement. Ce nouveau droit a également unimpact sur la justice environnementale et sociale dans la mesure où il favorise une double synergie entre la protection del’environnement, le développement économique et l’action des Etats. Les fonctions d’intégration et de conciliation dudroit du développement durable ont conduit à la reconnaissance universelle et l’affirmation au niveau international,régional et national, particulièrement au sein des institutions internationales et du corpus juridique à caractèreéconomique et social (droits de l’Homme) du développement durable. Il a également fait l’objet de nombreusesdispositions conventionnelles, constitutionnelles et législatives. Cette reconnaissance du droit du développementdurable bouleverse le modèle « classique » du système juridique cohérent, rationnel, autonome et hiérarchisé.Cependant, l’émergence du droit du développement suscite des inquiétudes, des interrogations et des controversesinhérentes à sa portée juridique, sa gouvernance trop sophistiquée et aux limites structurelles du fait de l’affluenceconstante de normes et d’institutions toujours plus complexes. De plus, face aux pratiques différenciées des Etats, ilconvient de se demander s’il existe une réelle volonté commune de créer un « nouveau paradigme ». Par ailleurs,l’affirmation du droit du développement durable sur le plan international, régional et national nécessite la mise en placede stratégies de mise en oeuvre effective et efficace du droit développement durable et la participation accrue desdifférents acteurs publics et privés, des ONG, des collectivités territoriales et des organisations internationales dans laproduction et l’application dudit droit. Enfin, il convient de chercher les garanties et de nouvelles mesures de sanctionsafin d’assurer la conformité et le respect avec les normes inhérentes au développement durable, et d’éviter la crise delégitimité du développement durable et une rupture éventuelle des relations internationales

Full textClimate change and the disruption it implies in the Arctic have really renewed the interest in this space. This raises issues of different scales (both regional and global), but also of different natures (economic, political, social, environmental), which constitute as many legal issues and question the relevance of the applicable law. However, and this is the main legal issue here: the existing legal framework is extremely complex, whose consistency and relevance concerning the region have been widely questioned. But to this unique problem - com-plexity - the authors do not seem to agree on the solutions to adopt. These differences underline the interest to determine whether the legal framework for the Arctic Ocean can be considered as "adequate" in the sense that it would enable a management that meets the criteria of a satisfying legal system. Regarding the method, the study demanded to put the apparent disorder in order. To this end, systematization was necessary; it was done through the creation of a synoptic table analyzing all the standards of international law applicable to the region,. In conclusion, despite its diversity, the legal framework can nevertheless be considered satisfactory from a substantive (completeness) and formal (coherence) point of view. Beyond simple coherence, the current cons-truction of an Arctic law leads to the identification of an scheduling process at the regional level, this framework resembling more and more a real "legal system". This regionalisation is legally essential. Nevertheless, it must be recognized that it does not ensure the worldwide action which remains essential in the face of the global problem that is climate change. If it constitutes a probably necessary step, it represents above all an additional step in this generalized implementation and therefore reinforces the fragmentation of international law, and its complexity

Full textKlimathotet är ett tryckande problem som bör adresseras omgående. Urbaniseringen har ökat stadigt de senaste åren då idag över 50 procent av jordens befolkning bor i städer och prognosen förutspår att den siffran kommer att öka till 70 procent till 2050. Det här sätter press på aktörer som länder, organisationer, företag och kommuner som måste arbeta för att bemöta urbaniseringen omgående. FN, EU och WWF med flera förespråkar att internationellt samarbete mellan samtliga dessa aktörer är den bästa vägen att gå och att städerna måste vara beredda på de problem som idag finns och som kommer att uppdagas i framtiden. Trots detta finns inga studier på vad internationellt ekologiskt samarbete mellan städer innebär eller vad det resulterar i. Växjö är en av få svenska städer som internationellt arbetar med lokal och global ekologisk hållbar utveckling. Studien ämnar undersöka Växjös internationella samarbete inom ekologisk hållbar utveckling i staden. Avsikten är att se vilken roll Växjös internationella samarbete spelar i deras hållbarhetsarbete i Växjö samt undersöka om och hur ekologisk hållbar utveckling i staden kan drivas framåt av internationella samarbeten. Med ett plussummspel som teoretisk utgångspunkt i fallstudien genomförs en intervjustudie med representanter från Växjö kommun. Resultatet visar att de effekter Växjö erhållit genom sina internationella samarbeten leder till ekologisk hållbar utveckling i staden. Ifall samarbete tar formen av ett plussummepsel medför det att samtliga inblandade aktörer går med vinning ur samarbetena och att miljön och klimatet gynnas. Detta genom att internationellt samarbete medför betydande kunskapsutbyten och externa finansiella medel att lägga på projekt, som således driver hållbar utveckling framåt i staden.

The aim of this study is to assess the task performed by the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), the United Nations main body for development issues, in Brazil. The method of research consists of bibliographical research, followed by a case study, in order to strengthen the theme s empirical investigation. The case study analyzed is the project BNDES/PNUD for Local Development (BRA/00/031) in the Península de Itapagipe , Salvador, Bahia. The first conclusion of this work is that the choice of the capabilities approach, developed by Amartya Sen, is convenient for the pragmatic and consensual nature of the Programme, given that it proposes a stronger focus on the expansion of individual choices without questioning the current international economic order. Therefore, it allows the maintenance of the support of not only countries which act as core resource suppliers, but also of countries where UNDP implements its interventions. Furthermore, the sustainable human development is a concept broad enough to let different interventions be classified under this one paradigm. Regarding the specific role of the UNDP in Brazil, it is clear that the nature of its approach is the government cost-sharing/national execution. This modality was first employed in a particular context, under special circumstances, which took under consideration the interests of both Brazilian government and the UNDP. It is possible to reach the conclusion that the Programme´s action in Brazil is more linked to performing the duties of a support structure, in order to have the projects fully and effectively implemented, than to furnish content and theoretical aspects to the interventions supported by the Programme. In sum, the UNDP´s action is limited by the lack of success in translating its innovative theoretical concepts and ideas into practical projects. Being successful on this task could imply an enrichment of the projects and also create a clear framework which characterizes the projects supported by the UNDP
O objetivo desse trabalho é entender como o Programa das Nações Unidas para o Desenvolvimento (PNUD), principal órgão das Nações Unidas para a questão do desenvolvimento, atua no Brasil. O procedimento de pesquisa utilizado é a pesquisa bibliográfica. Um estudo de caso é também realizado como forma de aprofundar a investigação empírica do tema. O estudo de caso analisado é o projeto BNDES/PNUD de Desenvolvimento Local (BRA/00/031), na Península de Itapagipe em Salvador (BA). A primeira conclusão deste trabalho é que a escolha da abordagem das capacidades de Amartya Sen é conveniente à natureza pragmática e consensual do Programa, porque propõe um foco na expansão das escolhas individuais das pessoas, mas sem questionar a ordem econômica internacional vigente. Dessa forma, permite a manutenção do apoio tanto de países doadores de recursos regulares como dos países nos quais o PNUD mantém atividades. Além disso, o desenvolvimento humano sustentável é muito amplo, e isso permite que intervenções nas mais diferentes áreas sejam classificadas como relacionadas a este paradigma. Em relação à atuação específica do PNUD no Brasil, está claro que a modalidade de cooperação utilizada majoritariamente é a execução nacional/financiamento pelo governo. Essa modalidade passou a ser utilizada em um contexto específico, que atendia interesses tanto do governo brasileiro quanto do PNUD. Pode-se concluir que a atuação do Programa no Brasil passa muito mais por servir como uma estrutura de apoio para que os projetos sejam implementados do que por realizar aportes teóricos e de conteúdo às intervenções apoiadas pelo Programa. Portanto, a atuação do PNUD é limitada pelo fato de não conseguir traduzir as idéias e os conceitos inovadores criados no seu âmbito para os seus projetos. Ter sucesso nessa questão poderia representar um enriquecimento dos projetos, bem como criar uma delimitação clara que caracterize os projetos apoiados pelo PNUD

A presente tese propõe-se a apresentar a tributação ambiental, pautada na extrafiscalidade, como uma fundamental política pública de fomento ao desenvolvimento sustentável, de modo a estimular outros atores não estatais na cooperação para a gestão da sustentabilidade. Pretende-se, com esta abordagem, demonstrar a possibilidade de atuação da política fiscal ambiental e a instituição de ecotributos como uma ação global e local para a implementação de pontuais Objetivos do Desenvolvimento Sustentável (ODS), especialmente os objetivos 11 e 12. Para atingir tal propósito, demonstrou-se a participação dos atores subnacionais como mecanismo da governança ambiental global. A pesquisa analisou o efeito dessa participação na solução de problemas comuns, crescentes na era globalizada e no mundo pós-moderno, onde os conceitos tradicionais do direito internacional são insuficientes para a tratativa dos problemas líquidos que permeiam a atualidade. Verificou-se essa mudança de paradigma pelo viés da tributação ambiental e da cooperação internacional local, estabelecendo a criação de ecotributos como instrumento essencial para fomento da produção, do consumo e das cidades sustentáveis.
The present thesis aims to present environmental taxation, based on extrafiscality, as a fundamental public policy to promote sustainable development, in order to stimulate other non-state actors to cooperate towards sustainable management. This approach sets out to demonstrate the viability of environmental fiscal policy and the creation of greentaxes as global and local action to implement specific Sustainable Development Goals (SDG), especially goals 11 and 12. To this end, this study establishes the participation of subnational actors as a mechanism for global environmental governance. The study examined the effect of this participation in solving common problems, increased in the globalized era and in the postmodern world, where traditional concepts of international law have proved insufficient to deal with liquid problems. This change of paradigm was observed through environmental taxation and local international cooperation, establishing the creation of greentaxes as a fundamental instrument to promote production, consumption and sustainable cities.

These are considered in the theoretical context of the capability approach. In the empirical study, conducted in the cities of Amman and Zarqa in Jordan, the researcher interviewed eleven key members of IYGs to analyse their work mechanisms and criteria for co-operation. A Focus Group Discussion with members of INGOs about challenges and opportunities in co-operations with IYGs was conducted, to complement the literature review of INGO perspectives. The study provides insights into the work mechanism and co-operation criteria of IYGs. The interviewees mentioned trust between the parties and sharing vision and motivation as key requirements. Recommendations for INGOs in their work with local partners and practical steps for supporting IYGs are given.

HRDP, a Bangladeshi development agency aims to achieve this goal by offering literacy classes and primary school edu-cation. In recent years, they have encountered obstacles to their empowerment strategy. Socio-cultural mediated expectations and moral obligations impeded the capability approach. This case study seeks to research the effects of entitlement and patronage on the empowerment of people in one of their projects. To be able to understand these structures and to determine possible implications for the asset-based ap-proach, 14 interviews and two focus-group discussions with local stakeholders have been conducted in the village of Gabtali, Bangladesh. Findings revealed that people desire to invest their own assets to increase their well-being, but expect assistance for this to happen. The study suggests align-ing expectations and obligations with the capability approach and also suggests a few ideas how this could be accomplished.

Full textEnergy is the natural power stored in matter which can be potential and kinetic energy. This occurs in nature in various forms such as chemical energy, thermal energy, electromagnetic radiation, gravitational energy, electric energy, elastic energy, nuclear energy, and rest energy. The scientific research relating to nuclear energy has revealed that atoms are the foundation of matter. In 1905 Albert Einstein initiated the quantum revolution utilising the Newtonian mass-energy equivalence concept in order to put his famous equation: E =mc2, where energy is (E). This facilitated the nuclear research which focused on manufacturing the first atomic bomb. In 1945 the USA acquired its first two atomic bombs which were dropped on Nagasaki and Hiroshima, killing 200 000 people; mostly civilians. But nuclear energy research has been redirected by scientists in order to industrialise nuclear technology in order to address growing power needs. This encouraged policy makers to consider the risks posed by utilising nuclear energy for civil purposes. The shift towards peaceful nuclear energy applications has been motivated by the many valuable contributions to humankind which nuclear energy offers - for instance in the fields of energy generation, human health, agriculture and industry. The nature of nuclear energy lends itself to becoming an important component of the world energy and global economic system. Nuclear energy is a viable option for many countries including South Africa, because it offers an economic and clean source of electricity; the primary engine for socio-economic development. South Africa operates the only two nuclear power reactors in Africa, (Koeberg 1 and Koeberg 2) generating 1.8 GWe. South Africa’s energy supply infrastructure consists fundamentally of coal-fired power plants which pose serious threats to the environment. Therefore, it is assumed that the planned 9.6 GW of new nuclear capacity by 2030 will meet the requirements of South Africa’s policy regarding the diversification of available energy resources to secure energy supply, support economic growth, and contribute to environmental management. Consequently, the legal system which governs nuclear energy programme is intended to prohibit the proliferation of nuclear weapons, ensure security and maintain the safe operation of nuclear facilities.
