    Understanding terrorism : a socio-economic perspective (2014)

    ISBN: 9781783508280
    Series Statement: Contributions to conflict management, peace economics and development v. 22
    Content: The recent proliferation of studies on terrorism has brought scholars from different fields and approaches to converge on this phenomenon. As a result, economists, social and political scientists have developed theories, evidence and, in a sense, even a peculiar jargon of their own. Starting from this assumption, the book aims to bring scholars with different expertise and background around the same table, showing how their individual perspectives can contribute to a broader understanding of the issue at stake. In other words, the aim that inspires the book is that the multi-disciplinary nature of terrorism requires a concerted effort by social sciences in particular, economics and political science. The book deals with a number of issues from the definition and forms of terrorism, to its economic determinants, from the distribution and forecast of terror attacks to the measurement of their impact on societies

    Series Statement: Komparatistische Bibliothek / Comparative Studies Series / Bibliothèque d'Études Comparatives 19
    Content: Die Organisation des elementaren Schulunterrichts in Jahrgangsklassen stellt ein umfassendes Ordnungsangebot für die Bevölkerung moderner Gesellschaften dar. Die allgemeine Durchsetzung dieses Organisationsprinzips wurde häufig als lineare Erfolgsgeschichte präsentiert, bei der sich eine vermeintlich eindeutige technologische Rationalität in der Systematisierung von unterrichtlichen Interaktionen und FInteraktionen und Führungstechniken durchgesetzt habe. Eine historisch-vergleichende Untersuchung der Rezeptionsverläufe des «wechselseitigen» oder «monitorialen» Unterrichts nach Bell und Lancaster zu Beginn des 19. Jahrhunderts in Preußen, in den damals dänischen Herzogtümern Schleswig und Holstein und in Spanien zeigt jedoch beträchtlich variierende Selektionen und Umdeutungen auf. Unter den Stichworten «Geist» und «Mechanik» werden kulturell distinkte Optionen herausgearbeitet, die bei der Akzeptanz von Technologieangeboten für das Klassenzimmer historisch wirksam geworden sind
    Content: Inhalt: Unterrichtsordnung und unterrichtsorganisatorischer Übergang – Traditionsbildung der Elementarschultechnologien in den deutschen Staaten und Spanien – Primat des Geistes in den deutschen Staaten – Die primeras letras in Spanien – Kontrast der Deutungen und Rezeption des wechselseitigen Unterrichts – Die Kulturalität des unterrichtsorganisatorischen Übergangs zur modernen Elementarschule

    Comparing Definitions and Methods to Estimate Mobilised Climate Finance (2013)

    b3kat_BV047932065
    Format: 1 Online-Ressource (56 Seiten) , 21 x 29.7cm
    Series Statement: OECD/IEA Climate Change Expert Group Papers
    Content: At the 16th Conference of the Parties (COP) in 2010, developed countries formalised a collective climate finance commitment made previously in Copenhagen of "mobilising jointly USD 100 billion per year by 2020 to address the needs of developing countries...from a wide variety of sources, public and private, bilateral and multilateral, including alternative sources" (UNFCCC, 2010). However, there is currently no definition of which "climate" activities, flows, or other interventions could count towards the USD 100 billion; what "mobilising" means; or even which countries are covered by this commitment. The paper examines different definitions used by 24 key actors in climate finance to quantify the level of private climate finance mobilised by their interventions, as well as the methods used to track such private climate finance. Key findings are that i) methodologies to assess and estimate mobilisation vary widely, and ii) considerable risk of double-counting exists

    Exploring Climate Finance Effectiveness (2013)

    Format: 1 Online-Ressource (58 p.) , 21 x 29.7cm.
    Series Statement: OECD/IEA Climate Change Expert Group Papers no.2013/04
    Content: Ensuring that climate finance is used effectively will help to maximise its impact. The effectiveness of climate finance can be defined as the extent to which an activity attains its stated aims. These aims can vary, depending on the source of climate finance and how it is channelled. There are therefore different views on what “effective” climate finance is, as well as on how this effectiveness can be assessed. This paper explores how different communities view climate finance effectiveness; the policies or institutional pre-conditions that facilitate effectiveness; and how effectiveness is currently monitored and evaluated. The paper concludes by discussing the conflicts and trade-offs encountered in assessing effectiveness and a possible way forward in balancing multiple views and priorities.

    Scaling up and replicating effective climate finance interventions (2014)
    Paris : OECD Publishing
    Details
    UID:
    gbv_1747663131
    Format: 1 Online-Ressource (67 p.) , 21 x 29.7cm.
    Series Statement: OECD/IEA Climate Change Expert Group Papers no.2014/01
    Content: There is widespread recognition that climate finance needs to be scaled up from its current levels. However, there is no clear view on how developed countries can efficiently and effectively mobilise further climate finance to meet the needs of developing countries. Developed countries have committed to mobilise USD 100 bn per year of climate finance for developing countries by 2020 from a variety of sources. These include both public and private finance, thus the private sector is likely to play a significant role in the mobilisation of climate finance to meet this commitment. This paper explores how scale-up and replication of effective climate finance interventions efficiently mobilise private climate finance. The interventions examined in the paper have already been, or are being, scaled up or replicated. Scaling-up and replication of such climate finance interventions could be an efficient way to increase the private sector’s interest in mobilisation of climate finance, and thus to make progress towards the USD 100 bn per year goal by 2020. The paper draws lessons from selected mitigation and available adaptation case studies at project- and programme-levels as well as from experience with international climate funds. The paper examines three key aspects needed to scale up and replicate climate finance. The first is the institutional structures and decision-making framework of the climate finance source, its aims, the scale at which it operates and how barriers to scaling-up and replication have been addressed. Second, the paper explores how demonstrating effective low-carbon, climate-resilient technologies and systems can facilitate scale-up and replication. Third, the paper discusses the influence of policies to enhance domestic enabling environments for scaling-up and replication.

    Exploring potential data sources for estimating private climate finance (2014)

    Format: Online-Ressource (70 S.) , graph. Darst.
    Series Statement: OECD environment working papers 69
    Content: The paper reviews a number of commercial and public data sources to examine their potential for increasing coverage and understanding of the volume and characteristics of private climate finance beyond renewable energy projects. Such information is needed to assess progress towards the global transition to low-carbon, climate-resilient economies, as well towards the fulfilment of international commitments by developed countries under the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change. The data sources investigated in this analysis are evaluated across four areas relating to their: (i) use of sectoral classification systems; (ii) coverage of private finance transactions and instruments; (iii) definitions and methods for categorising finance as private and identifying its geographic origin; and (iv) data access restrictions and methodological transparency. To provide a frame of reference, the paper distils corresponding definitions and methodologies used by key known data sources for tracking climatespecific finance as well as investments and finance more broadly...
