Global Climate Governance To Enhance Biodiversity & Well-Being: Integrating Non-State Networks And Public International Law In Tropical Forests, Andrew Long
Andrew Long
Environmental governance frequently represents a leading edge of global regulation. The climate regime even continues to create new modes of regulation despite a negotiation impasse. These new initiatives, like existing legal approaches to environmental challenges, too often embrace a fragmented view of issue areas that fails to reflect fundamental connections between the objects of regulation. The shortcomings of a state-driven international issue-by-issue approach to global environmental governance have long been obvious in some areas (such as tropical forests), and are becoming ever clearer in others (most notably climate change). Therefore, private networks play an increasingly important role in global environmental …

The U.S.-Korea Free Trade Agreement, currently awaiting ratification of legislatures of both countries, is known to be the most significant bilateral trade agreement since the conclusion of the North America Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA).

Political Economy Of Policymaking In Paraguay, Robert Andrew Nickson
Robert Andrew Nickson
The main objective of this chapter is to analyze the public policymaking process in Paraguay, particularly with regard to the formulation and implementation of policies that affect the generation of remunerative employment.

The main policymaking focus of the employment strategy will be on the private sector. However, the potential contribution of an employment strategy for the public sector itself towards poverty reduction is also considered.
The formulation and …

A Viable "Sweatshop Free" Model? The Ilo's Better Factories Program And Labor Rights In Cambodia's Garment Industry, John A. Hall
John A. Hall
The International Labour Organization's (ILO' s) innovative program, Better Factories Cambodia ("Better Factories"), represents one of the more important attempts made by the international community to promote labor rights in a developing nation. The lessons Better Factories offers are significant for all stakeholders in the global labor market and suggest at least the outline of a practical blueprint for the future promotion of international labor standards globally. While the ILO's program in Cambodia has achieved notable success in reaching specific criteria, future ILO efforts elsewhere must be adjusted to reflect lessons learned in the Better Factories model. Specifically, future programs …
