    Chapter 11 Economics of water resources: a survey (1985)

    ISBN: 9780444876454
    Content: This chapter reviews the application of economic concepts to study the consumption, supply, and allocation of water resources. Water management poses a wide array of issues for economists because few commodities are so pervasively involved in human economic activities. To an important degree, the location and intensity of economic activities depend on the availability of water for drinking, for agricultural and industrial production, for sanitation and waste assimilation, for transportation, and for aesthetic and recreational benefits. Water is said to be the only substance that exists in all three physical statessolid, liquid, and gaswithin the normal temperature range found on the earth's surface. Through the process known as the hydrologic cycle, the earth's water inventory is continually being transformed among the three states. No form of life on the earth can exist without water. Water is a universal solvent. The chapter reviews those characteristics of water resource systems that serve to set them apart from other resources, with particular reference to the attributes that serve as the basis for public intervention. It also describes the nature of interventions that have been made and emphasizes the need for evaluating them in terms of their objectives.

    Chapter 12 Multiple use management of public forestlands (1985)
    Details
    UID:
    gbv_1831644940
    ISBN: 9780444876454
    Content: This chapter focuses on the multiple-use management of public forestlands. The managers of these lands must, in addition to considering the value of timber harvests, consider various nonmarket amenity services, such as recreation, water flow, and wildlife, which are influenced by alterations in the standing stocks of timber. The chapter discusses research results on the relation of such multiple-use management to single-purpose timber management. The presentation is motivated by a number of issues of current concern, including (1) the withdrawal of lands from timber management, (2) the specialization or diversification of land use, (3) the level and stability of timber supply, and (4) the wisdom of certain accepted rule-of-thumb principles of public forestland management related to the age and level of harvests. The principles of public forestry in the United States have often been driven by the fear of timber shortage and the destabilizing effects on employment and prices arising from fluctuations in the supply of timber. The chapter describes the institutional setting for multiple-use management within the U.S. Forest Service.

    Chapter 13 Land resources and land markets (1985)
    Details
    UID:
    gbv_1831644932
    ISBN: 9780444876454
    Content: Land is a central concept not only in the technical sciences and in professions such as engineering, geology, agriculture, and forestry but also in law and in the social sciences. This chapter discusses the economics of land. There exists an ancient and persistent suspicion that land is not just any commodity or factor of production. Land has played a prominent role in the development of general economic theory, and it retains a special position in some current renditions thereof. There is recurrent debate whether any economic theory that treats land as nothing special can be valid. In the most general versions of the mainstream economic theory, land is treated as a factor of production, and the debate revolves around whether it is useful to reserve a special place for land in formulating the aggregate production function. Land and natural resource concepts remain important for many special purposes in economics. The Ricardian concept of economic rent remains durable and finds application in areas as diverse as land economics, location theory, and welfare change measurement. Agricultural economics, natural resource economics, urban economics, and regional economics are important areas of specialization within economics, and the classic concept of land, which is appropriately updated, plays an important role in each.

    Chapter 14 The economics of fisheries management (1985)
    Details

    ISBN: 9780444876454
    Content: Fishery resources, unlike minerals and fossil fuels, are renewable in the sense that they are capable of growth. Unlike forests and most other renewable resources, fishery resources are difficult to manage effectively because they are, with few exceptions, a common property. Most fish, particularly finfish, are very mobile and are not readily observable except upon capture. Consequently, it becomes very difficult or very costly to assign rights of exclusive use to individuals or small groups. The importance of the economics of fisheries management has grown substantially over the past years as a consequence of the United Nations Third Conference on the Law of the Sea. The Conference has brought about a near revolution in the management of world fisheries. Fishery resources constitute common-property resources with the consequence that fisheries are subject to a market failure. A major development in fisheries economics is the shift away from static to dynamic or capital-theoretic analysis. Dynamic considerations, in turn, lead naturally to a consideration of problems arising from uncertainty.

    Chapter 15 The economics of outdoor recreation (1985)
    Details

    ISBN: 9780444876454
    Content: The economics of outdoor recreation deals with the supply of and demand for natural resources for recreational purposes. This chapter discusses the conceptual and empirical approaches, problems, and solutions encountered in applying economics to the provision of natural resources and explains the way in which the evolution of the economics of outdoor recreation has been influenced by the distinctive nature of markets for outdoor recreation. The distinctive characteristic of a recreational activity is that the services usually are provided by the public sector. This characteristic strongly favors the nature of research on outdoor recreation economics; it is welfare economics in action with the task of providing the public sector better information about the allocation of recreational resources. As a tool for analyzing decisions in the public sector, outdoor recreation economics has primarily become the study of the demand for outdoor recreation. Public sector decisions about natural resources tend to be lumpythat is, whether to utilize a resource for a specific purpose such as recreation.

    gbv_1831644908
    ISBN: 9780444876454
    Content: This chapter discusses the Soviet system that serves to facilitate or prevent pollution. It discusses the extent to which the U.S.S.R.'s culture and endowment have led to or away from pollution. It discusses the way the lack of pluralism and the overwhelming emphasis on production make it difficult to protect the Soviet environment. The Soviet experience indicates that Soviet environmental theory and law are more impressive on paper than in practice. The Soviet Union has long had legislation setting limits on waste discharge that is by far more demanding than any other country in the world. It was widely acknowledged in the U.S.S.R. that these limits were set more to impress the outside world than to constrain Soviet producers. Much of the reason for the existence of pollution in the Soviet Union arises from the fact that the Soviet Union has placed and continues to place so much emphasis on economic growth.

    ISBN: 9780444876454
    Content: The aim of the Handbooks in Economics series is to produce handbooks for various branches of economics, each of which is a definitive source, reference, and teaching supplement for use by professional researchers and advanced graduate students. Each handbook provides self-contained surveys of the current state of a branch of economics in the form of chapters prepared by leading specialists on various aspects of this branch of economics. These surveys summarize not only received results but also newer developments from recent journal articles and discussion papers. Some original material is also included, but the main goal is to provide comprehensive and accessible surveys. The handbooks are intended to provide not only useful reference volumes for professional collections but also possible supplementary readings for advanced courses for graduate students in economics.
