planners, and policy makers. The root of the debates is a question of which types of public lands management can provide better economic benefits to adjacent regions that are referred to gateway communities. For a long time, resource extractive industries – such as mineral, oil, coal, and timber development sectors - have been a primary growth engine for the economic growth in those communities. However, since the past three decades, several federal land use policies such as the Multiple-Use Sustained-Yield

is when the government is spending more money than what the government collects. Contractionary stance is when the government is collecting more money than they can spend. 2. What are the four different types of economic resources? Describe each type. The four different types of economic resources are land, capital, labor, and entrepreneurial ability. Land doesn’t just mean the physical land that we walk on, it’s also the natural resources that are being used by humans for production. Capital is

Goldman Sachs first in 2001, but most prominently in a follow up paper published in 2003 ((“Brazil, Russia, India, and China - BRIC,” n.d.). The Goldman Sachs thesis states they, Brazil, Russia, India, and China, have the potential to form a powerful economic bloc (“Brazil, Russia, India, and China - BRIC,” n.d.). Just thirty prior, Brazil, Russia, India, and China were all struggling in some fashion. Brazil was dealing with over inflation. Russia was behind the “Iron Curtain.” India made the mistake

The Economic Agency of Women in Malthus’ Essay on the Principle of Population It is difficult to examine the question of the division of labor within the household in Malthus’ writings as it seems to be entirely outside the scope of his work. Though his conclusions are predicated on the relationship between men and women, from reading his writing one has the distinct impression that women are not really a factor.

Sachs writes “The desire for equity is largely fixed on development-as-growth” (22). This is to say that development as a concept is conventionally hinged upon economic status and growth. This core assumption is present in the primary models of development, modernization and neoliberalism, both of which in turn offer their own implications and consequences. It is these consequences that inspire Sachs, and many others, to seek out a more comprehensive definition and approach to development. As was

for change in ownership and management of the parks to create more economic return. Although the parks confer multiple benefits and costs on the U.S, perhaps the most contentious area of debate concerns the cost-benefit dichotomy of the parks’ collective economic value. While some experts argue that the taxes required to maintain national parks are burdensome, or that management is often ineffective in preserving the parks’ economic benefit, others believe that their overall benefit to local communities

Another implication with the imposition of a carbon tax or cap and trade system is that depending on the industry specialization of the country, it can result in primarily hurting the industries that are key actors in the local economy. Hence, at times, it is difficult for industries to promote clean energy at a reasonable time to internalize the extra cost imposed on them through a carbon tax policy. For instance, the Conservative government in Canada had opposed carbon pricing, arguing that it

The introduction of the carbon tax in Australia. Recently, the carbon tax issue has been gaining increasing attention in Australia due to its function of reducing greenhouse gas as well as its extensive economic impacts on a range of industries, such as tourism and hospitality. The conceptual meaning of the carbon tax is “a levy applied to various operations that generate carbon dioxide” (Covey, 2009, p.329). Such a tax is introduced to achieve a desired national emission target (Covey, 2009)
