Water Supply And Urban Growth In New Mexico: Same Old, Same Old Or A New Era?, (With L. Lucero), A. Dan Tarlock
Water Supply And Urban Growth In New Mexico: Same Old, Same Old Or A New Era?, (With L. Lucero), A. Dan Tarlock
Dan Tarlock
New Mexico and other arid western states face the following dilemma: Rapid urban growth and the increasing demand for the dedication of water to aquatic ecosystem services are placing new stresses on the ability of available water supplies to support these new demands at a time when a coherent federal supply and water policy no longer exists and states have been slow to fill the vacuum. The answer to the increasing demand for water is no longer simply to augment supply through new diversions, high-capacity wells, or the construction of large storage reservoirs. Instead, in today's increasingly unmediated, competitive water …

A Termőföld Jogi Szabályozásának Inkoherenciái, Milan Meszaros
A Termőföld Jogi Szabályozásának Inkoherenciái, Milan Meszaros
Milan Meszaros physicist
Az Európai Unió országaiban a termőföld jogi szabályozása az egyes országokban ugyan fejlettebb stádiumban van mint Magyarországon, ugyanakkor -az EU tagországok közötti összehasonlításban- a szabályozás eklektikus képet mutat.
Magyarországon -másfél évvel az uniós csatlakozás előtt- a termőföldet érintő jogi szabályozás viszonylag fejlett állapotba jutott el, ugyanakkor e szabályozásban még mindig jelentős koherencia zavar tapasztalható.
Ennek ellenére -a gyakori és hol erre, hol arra hangsúlyt tevő politikai áramlatok támogatásával vagy éppen velük ellentétben- kialakult a termőföldet érintő jogi szabályozás hatóköre és gerince. Ezzel párhuzamosan –az 1989. október 23-án hatályba lépett új alkotmány keretei között– a termőföld szabályozásában kialakult egy inkonzisztens jogforrási …
A Two-Dimensional Framework For Analyzing Property Rights Regimes, Shi-Ling Hsu
A Two-Dimensional Framework For Analyzing Property Rights Regimes, Shi-Ling Hsu
Shi-Ling Hsu
This article proposes an integrative framework wherein all property regimes can be expressed as a function of two fundamental characteristics: (i) whether the dominant right is a use right or an exclusion right (or some degree thereof), and (ii) the size of the party jointly holding the dominant right. This article will show how all property regimes can be characterized by these two variables. By analyzing property regimes in such a framework, property regimes can be related to each other, and conditions can be identified under which the regimes function best. I introduce four fundamental property regimes: the Individual Use, …

Unclos And The High Seas: Problems And Suggested Solutions To The Creation Of A Common Pool Resource On An International Scaleproblems And Suggested Solutions To The Creation Of A Common Pool, Chad J. Mcguire
Chad J McGuire
The purpose of this paper is to critically analyze UNCLOS as an efficient management regime for protecting migratory marine species1, especially those with economic value. The premise, based on foundations of collective action theory, is UNCLOS cannot adequately protect marine resources. The main reasons include the dynamics involved with national sovereignty, along with UNCLOS creation of what is tantamount to a common pool, or open access resource through the development of the “high seas” concept.

Seasons Of Resistance: Sustainable Agriculture And Food Security In Cuba, Carmen G. Gonzalez
Seasons Of Resistance: Sustainable Agriculture And Food Security In Cuba, Carmen G. Gonzalez
Carmen G. Gonzalez
Beginning in the mid-1990s, Cuba embarked upon a transformation of the agricultural sector that has been hailed by some observers as a model of socially equitable and ecologically sustainable agriculture. Cuba shifted from an export-oriented, chemical-intensive agricultural development strategy to one that promoted organic agriculture and encouraged production for the domestic market. This article places Cuba's agricultural reforms in historical context by examining the evolution of Cuban agriculture from the colonial period until the present through the lens of food security and ecological sustainability. The article argues that Cuba, for most of its history, was food insecure and ecologically compromised …
