TITLE: Reforming Energy Subsidies: An Explanatory Summary of the Issues and Challenges in Removing or Modifying Subsidies on Energy that Undermine the Pursuit of Sustainable Development LANGUAGE: E. SALES #: 02.III.D.51 ISBN: 9280722085 PAGES: 32 PRICE: $10.00 DESCRIPTION: Subsidies on the supply and use of energy have emerged as a major theme in international discussions and negotiations aimed at promoting sustainable development. Energy subsidies matter, both because they are big and because they affect in wide-ranging and diverse ways the economy, social welfare and the environment - the three dimensions of sustainability. Reforming energy subsidies must, therefore, be a central plank of government efforts to promote energy systems that strike a better balance between these three dimensions. This booklet draws on recent work on energy-subsidy reform carried out by UNEP and the International Energy Agency. It summarizes in non-technical language the central issues related to energy subsidies and key messages for policy-makers looking to reform subsidy programmes.

SALES #: 99.II.F.75 ISBN: 9211199468 SYMBOL: ST/ESCAP/1948 PAGES: 232pp. PRICE: $35.00 DESCRIPTION: Floods continue to be one of the most severe annual disasters, particularly in Asia. The intensity of flood disasters appears to have increased in the region in the past decade, especially during the past few years. This publication discusses the process adopted for the formulation of a conceptual framework involving effective regional cooperation based on three main components: a review of flood control and management experiences in the region; the experience of regional cooperation and trends at the regional and international levels; and the current strategic planning techniques. In addition, case studies are presented on development and achievements in flood control and management in Thailand; the upper Parramatta River Catchment Trust in Australia; the Klang River Basin in Malaysia; flood control along the Mississippi in the United States; and new developments in flood control in the Rhine river in Germany.

TITLE: Regional Integration and the Issue of Choosing an Appropiate Exchange-rate Regime in Latin America SERIES: Macro-economy of Development No.: 14 LANGUAGE: E. SALES #: 02.II.G.86 ISBN: 9211213541 SYMBOL: LC/L.1732-P PAGES: 52 PRICE: $10.00 DESCRIPTION: Behind the discussion on optimal exchange-rate regimes lies the need to achieve external and internal equilibrium, and thus create an appropriate macroeconomic climate for sustained growth and development in Latin America and the Caribbean. Subregional cooperation offers both an intermediate option and a more coherent reference for the exchange-rate regimes in Latin America and the Caribbean. It provides the missing link for a concrete institutional building process on which macroeconomic sustainability could be founded. This paper presents a cooperative alternative to the national corner solutions of full dollarization or pure free floating. The solution is to create a set of incentives operating in a strong and institutionalized system of checks and balances at the regional level. This cooperative arrangement would bind national policy-making to a greater goal of regional macroeconomic coordination, and avoid that circumstantial problems may affect the long-term goal of good fiscal and monetary management. TITLE: Regional Interdependencies and Macroeconomic Crises Notes on Mercosur SERIES: Studies and Perspectives No.: 5 LANGUAGE: E.

Macroeconomic turbulence is not a novelty for Argentina, Brazil and their partners, but it has shown different features in recent years, particularly concerning the strength and nature of regional spillover. This paper reviews aspects of the recent behaviour of the economies of the area and comments on the characteristics of the macroeconomic interdependencies, and analyses circumstances that have conditioned macroeconomic coordination within the region. Finally, it considers some policy options for regional cooperation in crisis situations. TITLE: Regional Mechanisms and International Security in Latin America LANGUAGE: E. SALES #: 97.III.A.9 ISBN: 9280809679 SYMBOL: UNUP-967 PAGES: 172pp. PRICE: $14.95 DESCRIPTION: This publication offers a new perspective on the contemporary debate in the area of international security in Latin America and the Caribbean. It examines many questions such as: Does the end of the Cold War modify the US interests in Latin America in the field of security? Should existing mechanisms of collective security in the region be strengthened? Or should we find alternatives? How far is a shared agenda for security, not only with the United States but also between the countries in Latin America itself, and among them and the Caribbean, possible or desirable? Without a doubt, this publication offers very interesting reading and insight. TITLE: Regional Peacekeepers: The Paradox of Russian Peacekeeping LANGUAGE: E.

This report analyzes the state of the review institution today in relation to the 10 major MEAs covered in the UNEP GEO-2000 report. The following information is covered in this report: the presentation and definition of the central concepts of compliance, implementation and effectiveness of MEAs; introduction of the essential characteristics of review institutions and their variations; presentation and analysis of the existing and proposed review institutions in each of the 10 MEAs systematically; and a summary of observations concerning the sate of review institutions in existing MEAs, including key lessons learned and policy recommendations.

TITLE: Resource-led Growth: A Long-term Perspective - The Relevance of the 1870-1914 Experience for Today's Developing Economies SERIES: UNU/WIDER Working Papers No.: 162 LANGUAGE: E. SALES #: 00.III.A.10 ISBN: 9529520972 PAGES: 68pp. PRICE: $5.00 DESCRIPTION: The publication attempts to find out whether the 1870-1914 period was in some sense "unique"; i.e. whether the success of the resource-rich economies during these years was built on a configuration of factors that is not likely to be replicated in future, or whether the episode contains lessons that are applicable a century later as well. Resource-led Growth presents three stylized views of resource-led development and sketches the picture of international trade in primary products and the migration of production factors between 1870 and 1914. Ultimately the publication introduces some models that may be used to analyze trade and factor movements in the context of resource-rich economies and provides some details of the experience of fifteen countries. Among the regions of recent settlement, Canada, the United States, Australia and Argentina; Brazil, Costa Rica, Colombia, Ceylon, Malaya, Burma, Siam and the Gold Coast in the tropica group; and Bolivia, Chile and South Africa among the mineral exporters.

SALES #: 02.II.H.1 ISBN: 9211231469 SYMBOL: ST/ESA/PAD/SER.E/29 PAGES: 92 PRICE: $15.00 DESCRIPTION: It is becoming increasingly evident that one of the keys to future global development is found in the area of governance reform. Better governance means greater citizen participation and increased public accountability. As a part of the movement to good and equitable governance, there has been a growing awareness of the importance of decentralization as a means to enable people to participate more directly in the decisions that shape their lives. This publication draws insights from the papers presented and the discussions, which took place at the Global Forum on Local Governance and Social Services for All, held in Stockholm, Sweden in May 2000. In conclusion, this paper strongly suggests that more imagination and innovation is needed in the world of local governance in order to successfully meet the challenge of providing citizens everywhere with a better life in the 21st century.

SALES #: 02.II.D.12 ISBN: 9211125618 SYMBOL: UNCTAD/GDS/DMFAS/2 PAGES: 44 PRICE: $10.00 DESCRIPTION: The debt crisis contributed heavily to the social and economic crisis in most developing countries in the 1980s, and its impact on the poorer developing countries continued through the 1990s. The debt overhang stunted investment, growth and world trade, and debt payments crowded out public expenditure on education, health and other social needs. An important contributing factor to the debt crisis was the neglect by many countries of the basic elements of debt management. This publication examines various models for the role, organization and location of a public debt office; the regulatory framework and institutional memory of debt management, involving the creation of procedure manuals for the inter- and intra-institutional tasks and information flows; and the degree of autonomy that a debt office can and should have.

Organizations and alliances such as the European Union, OSCE, NATO and UNECE have taken the lead to define the nature and scope of the new security environment and the shifting economic and environmental dynamics contributing to it. The Villars Colloquium, hosted by UNECE-OSCE with input from NATO experts and the participation of a broad spectrum of governmental, business and civil society specialists, is a critical contribution to the renewed efforts to develop more effective responses both to developing and actual conflicts. The participants identified three primary causes of conflict in Europe, namely: economic decline and rising poverty; growing inequality between and within states; and weak and uncertain state institutions. The Villars Colloquium has laid the foundation for a continuing Villars Group, which, if realized, will have the aim of establishing a comprehensive framework to facilitate more effective preventative responses to conflict and emerging security issues.

TITLE: Roma in Central and East Europe, The: Avoiding the Dependency Trap, Regional Human Development Report LANGUAGE: E. SALES #: 03.III.B.4 ISBN: 921261538 PAGES: 136 PRICE: $20.00 DESCRIPTION: Across Central and Eastern Europe, a disturbingly high number of the Roma population, in some cases as high as 70 percent, derive their income primarily from state transfers such as child allowances, unemployment benefits and pensions. Living in conditions of poor health standards and low education levels amongst the youth, there has been an increased dependency on the state, creating a vicious circle that has widened the socio-economic gap between Roma and majority populations, leading to damaging social and political consequences. By analyzing the problem through the prism of human development, this report explains why and how the dependency trap into which many Roma have fallen can be avoided. It reveals how the Roma want to integrate productively into the countries in which they live without losing their cultural identity and goes on to argue that integration does not have to mean assimilation, especially if governments and the international community double their efforts to address the broader development needs faced by Roma communities. Tables, graphs and figures are included to help illustrate data. TITLE: Romania: A Partner for Developing Countries SERIES: Product and Market Development LANGUAGE: E.
