“…This is in the line of Picketty's analysis of the process of increasing inequality [24]. At this level, one study [25] identified four key areas that decrease income inequality in both developed and developing economies: (i) technological change-oriented skills; (ii) the improvement of educational systems; (iii) the consolidation of globalisation; and (iv) labor market reforms.…”

Regional Inclusive Development: An Assessment of Russian Regions

2021

The concept of inclusive development is gaining momentum in both the academic and policy-making arenas. There are a plethora of definitions and several indicators with which to monitor its progress at the national level. However, the regional level has been relatively overlooked in the analyses carried out by academics. This is particularly serious for large countries marked by deep regional disparities. The aim of this paper is to address this gap by proposing and applying a framework to assess inclusive development at the regional level. Drawing on a critical analysis of the concept and existing indexes, the paper proposes an index of Regional Inclusive Development and applies it to the regions of the Russian Federation. Moreover, it compares the suggested index with established indicators of regional socio-economic development, namely quality of life and gross product. The results support the idea that at the regional level, there is a significant correlation and interdependence between all dimensions of the sustainable development concept—environment, the economy, and society—and that inclusiveness should not be ignored or undervalued in the analysis of development processes. Furthermore, the results show significant differences in the positioning of the regions in terms of the inclusive development rankings as compared to their positions in the quality of life and gross product rankings. The results also reveal small interregional differences among Russian regions, which are unexpected given the size of the country.

“…Our decision to focus on this topic reflects both the importance of effective waste management practices and their implications for indigenous people. An integrative literature review is a specific form of research that seeks to not only categorize information about a particular area of study, but also to create new knowledge about topics reviewed (Torraco, 2005(Torraco, , 2016; Heshmati et al, eTropic: electronic journal of studies in the tropics ; Wood et al, 2020). Furthermore, literature reviews are an effective means of succinctly summarizing and critically analyzing an extant body of literature from a particular field of study (Chermack & Passmore, 2005).…”

The management of marine waste is an increasingly complex issue facing the world today. Our study provides an interesting take on the issue of marine waste by examining how Indonesian indigenous communities can deal with plastic marine pollution. While there is an obvious need for mitigating plastic use, for effective legislative policies regulating plastic waste management, and to do more to develop sustainable waste management practices; there are also opportunities for indigenous communities to take an innovative approach by using plastic waste in a manner that drives economic development from both non-market and neoliberal theoretical ideologies. As part of this assessment, alongside Indonesian examples we include examples of plastic re-use by indigenous communities of the Philippines and Australia. Moreover, our study highlights some of the areas in which this is being done in the fields of art and infrastructure development.

“…This trade-off decision had not only reduced the cost but also enhanced social connectivity and opened doors to better education, employment, and businesses for the neglected backward regions of the Balochistan province. Similarly, (Heshmati et al 2019) took the case of challenged trade-offs between welfare and economic growth and argued that there is a need for better understanding of the causes of income inequality.…”

Trade-Offs in Competitive Transport Operations

et al. 2020

One of the goals of developing a transport corridor is to promote socio-economic development by improving connectivity and sustainable transport operations, which largely depends on the operational strategy. Trade-off policies can be important tools for gaining the competitive advantage of road transport corridors, and thus, help facilitate sustainable growth and welfare. This article uses a case-based approach to observe the trade-offs in the first phase of transport infrastructure development, and then, in the second stage, further explores the trade-off variables in the transport operations strategy under the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC). The results from the three cases of the parallel route system of the CPEC indicate that trade-off is an easily understandable and applicable method, which can foresee the operational gains or compromises for significant welfare of the regions. The implications of the trade-off are two fold, first is the “importance” of the trade-off, which is related to its impact on operational competitiveness. The other is the “sensitivity” of the trade-off, in terms of the change that will be caused to one variable when changing the other. The trade-off concept can be used for several landlocked transport corridors to achieve a competitive edge in transit trade.
