This book presents national environmental, or 'green' accounting as it has developed in Europe and other parts of the world. It introduces the most recent methods developed through the United Nations Statistical Department and other international organizations, but bridges the gap between the superficial treatment of environmental accounting in economics textbooks and environmental literature, on the one hand, and the highly technical manuals of international organizations, on the other. Joy Hecht begins with a history and introduction to national income accounting. The first part of her book explains how the environmental accounts build on the structure of the 1993 System of National Accounts. She then shows the UN approach to accounting applied to pollution, recycling, and the management of natural resources such as forests, minerals, and fisheries. The third section discusses how the accounts approach green GDP and other macroeconomic indicators. The book concludes by going beyond the UN structures to discuss other adjusted macroeconomic measures and how accounting data can be used to build them. National Environmental Accounting is a non-technical introduction to an increasingly important field. It is a must-read for anyone interested in how environmental accounts can help society move towards greater sustainability.

Environmental accounting - the modification of the national income accounts to take into consideration the economic role of the environment - has grown in importance over the past ten years. However, many countries have not yet implemented such accounts, and there is much controversy about whether and how to do so. This paper aims to shed light on this situation through nine country case studies: Norway, The Netherlands, Sweden, France, Canada, The Philippines, Namibia, Germany, and the United States.

Le secteur des industries extractives (IE) occupe une place démesurée dans les économies de nombreux pays en développement. Les économistes et les spécialistes des finances publiques qui y travaillent sont fréquemment confrontés à des problèmes qui requièrent une connaissance approfondie du secteur, de son économie, de sa gouvernance, de ses enjeux stratégiques, et une idée précise de ce que la richesse en ressources naturelles suppose en termes de gestion du budget et des finances publiques. L’ouvrage en trois volumes Points essentiels à l’intention des économistes et des spécialistes des finances publiques, publié dans la série des Études de la Banque mondiale, a pour objet de donner un bref aperçu des problèmes associés aux IE que ces spécialistes sont susceptibles de rencontrer. Ce premier volume, Le secteur des industries extractives, dresse une synthèse des aspects fondamentaux de l’économie des IE, analyse les principales composantes des cadres stratégiques, institutionnels et de gouvernance du secteur, et définit les obligations de financement du secteur public dans ce domaine. Son analyse des aspects économiques des IE couvre l’évaluation des gisements de sous-sol, l’interprétation économique donnée au minerai, et la structure des marchés de l’énergie et des produits minéraux. Il définit les responsabilités des entités publiques compétentes, et présente les caractéristiques des cadres juridique et réglementaire du secteur. Il analyse brièvement ses fonctions essentielles et particulières, ainsi que les structures financières qui soutiennent les mesures de sauvegarde environnementale et sociale, l’investissement des recettes publiques provenant de l’exploitation des ressources pétrolières, gazières ou minières, et la diversification économique à partir des industries extractives. Les auteurs espèrent que les économistes et les spécialistes des finances publiques qui travaillent dans les pays riches en ressources naturelles †“ y compris les décideurs au sein des ministères des finances, des organisations internationales, et autres entités compétentes — jugeront cet ouvrage utile à leur compréhension et à leur analyse du secteur des IE.

El sector de las industrias extractivas (IE) ocupa un lugar considerable en las economías de muchos países en desarrollo. Los economistas y los profesionales de las finanzas públicas que trabajan en estos países suelen enfrentarse a problemas que exigen un entendimiento profundo del sector, su economía, su buen gobierno y los desafíos en materia de políticas, así como a las consecuencias de la abundancia de recursos naturales para la gestión fiscal y de las finanzas públicas. El objetivo del estudio de tres volúmenes denominado Essentials for Economists and Public Finance Professionals, publicado en la serie de estudios realizados por el Banco Mundial, es presentar un panorama general conciso de los temas relacionados con las IE que estos profesionales probablemente deban encarar. En el primer volumen, "The Extractive Industries Sector", se ofrece una reseña general de las cuestiones fundamentales para la economía de las IE; se analizan los componentes principales del buen gobierno, las políticas y los marcos institucionales del sector, y se identifican las obligaciones de financiamiento del sector público relacionadas con las IE. El análisis de la economía de las IE abarca la valuación de los activos subterráneos, la interpretación económica del mineral y la estructura de los mercados de la energía y los minerales. En este volumen se determinan las responsabilidades de las entidades gubernamentales correspondientes y se describen las características de los marcos jurídicos y normativos del sector de las IE. Se analizan brevemente las funciones clave y específicas del sector, además de las estructuras financieras que sustentan las salvaguardas ambientales y sociales; la inversión de los ingresos públicos provenientes del petróleo, el gas o los minerales, así como la diversificación económica basada en las industrias extractivas. Los autores esperan que este volumen resulte de utilidad a los economistas y los profesionales de las finanzas públicas que trabajan en países ricos en recursos (incluidos los encargados de la toma de decisiones en ministerios de finanzas, organizaciones internacionales y otras entidades relevantes) para la comprensión y el análisis del sector de las IE.

'The ecological challenge demands a paradigm shift in our thinking about the human-environment relation. Reconciling Human Existence with Ecological Integrity provides a ‘state of the art account of work on ecological integrity - and offers a compelling vision for the future. Derek Bell, Senior Lecturer at the School of Geography, Politics and Sociology, University of Newcastle A book of vast scope and richness ... If policymakers around the world took notice of this insightful set of messages, we would all live with greater happiness, health, and wellbeing, with a brighter future for our children and grandchildren. Lawrence O. Gostin, O‘Neill Professor of Global Health Law, Georgetown University Law Center This book attempts to do in theory what the world needs to do in practice. It is an ecological master plan that shows how we can not only survive but also flourish. James P. Sterba, President of the American Philosophical Association, Central Division Ecosystems have been compared to a house of cards: remove or damage a part and you risk destroying or fundamentally and irreversibly altering the whole. Protecting ecological integrity means maintaining that whole - an aim which is increasingly difficult to achieve given the ever-growing dominance of humanity. This book is the definitive examination of the state of the field now, and the way things may (and must) develop in the future. Written and edited by members of the Global Ecological Integrity Group - an international collection of the worlds most respected authorities in the area - the book considers the extent to which human rights (such as the rights to food, energy, health, clean air or water) can be reconciled with the principles of ecological integrity. The issue is approached from a variety of economic, legal, ethical and ecological standpoints, providing an essential resource for researchers, students and those in government or business in a wide range of disciplines.

This proceedings volume examines the state-of-the art of productivity and efficiency analysis and adds to the existing research by bringing together a selection of the best papers from the 8th North American Productivity Workshop (NAPW). It also aims to analyze world-wide perspectives on challenges that local economies and institutions may face when changes in productivity are observed. The volume comprises of seventeen papers that deal with productivity measurement, productivity growth, dynamics of productivity change, measures of labor productivity, measures of technical efficiency in different sectors, frontier analysis, measures of performance, industry instability and spillover effects. These papers are relevant to academia, but also to public and private sectors in terms of the challenges firms, financial institutions, governments and individuals may face when dealing with economic and education related activities that lead to increase or decrease of productivity. The North American Productivity Workshop brings together academic scholars and practitioners in the field of productivity and efficiency analysis from all over the world. It is a four day conference exploring topics related to productivity, production theory and efficiency measurement in economics, management science, operations research, public administration, and related fields. The papers in this volume also address general topics as health, energy, finance, agriculture, utilities, and economic dev elopment, among others. The editors are comprised of the 2014 local organizers, program committee members, and celebrated guest conference speakers.

Determined to banish the ravages of the Depression, win the war, and build a better post-war world, Canadian academics and mandarins applied the ideas of Keynes and Kuznets to the Canadian predicament - a highly regionalized nation interested in building a society that harnessed both the private and public sector to the goal of economic stability and increased national wealth. Today, Canadians know that they can trust the numbers put before them by their national accountants, numbers that support the working culture of our economic citizenship.
