I. Theoretical framework -- pt. II. Empirical evidence from the Lancang river. 330 $aThe idea of 'the commons' is a long-standing concept in the English-speaking world and in English law. A similar concept occurs in China. How different from or similar to the English idea of 'the commons' is the idea in China; and how is the concept applied? This book explores this important subject. It examines the subject from a philosophical and theoretical perspective; considers 'the commons' widely, including tangible commons of resources, intangible commons of culture, identity and social capital, and institutional commons of welfare, security and public goods; and goes on to examine the concept as it applies to the hydropower developments along the Lancang River, outlining the different competing interests of local people, central and provincial government, and environmental considerations. It argues that the concept of 'the commons' in China is dual-dimensional, with a vertical dimension of 'public authority' and a horizontal dimension of 'commonly sharing', that power structures in China have often been flexible and polycentric, and that, correctly applied, this approach will do much to serve the common interest of the people, ensuring positive impacts for shared prosperity for multiple stakeholders, whilst mitigating the negative impacts involved in the delivery of such positive impacts. 410 0$aRoutledge studies on the Chinese economy. 606 $aCommon good$zChina 606 $aPolitical planning$zChina 607 $aChina$xPolitics and government$y2002- 607 $aChina$xEconomic conditions$y2000- 607 $aChina$xSocial conditions$y2000- 615 0$aCommon good 615 0$aPolitical planning 676 $a333.2 700 $aZhang$b Yan$f1983-,$0926912 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910162820703321 996 $aGoverning the commons in China$92082270 997 $aUNINA LEADER 04205nam 22007215 450 001 9910484244703321 005 20230810170905.0 010 $a9783030470876 010 $a3030470873 024 7 $a10.1007/978-3-030-47087-6 035 $a(CKB)5590000000486912 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC6641033 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL6641033 035 $a(OCoLC)1257077715 035 $a(DE-He213)978-3-030-47087-6 035 $a(EXLCZ)995590000000486912 100 $a20210612d2021 u| 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurcn#---||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 10$aWater Quality and Agriculture $eEconomics and Policy for Nonpoint Source Water Pollution /$fby James Shortle, Markku Ollikainen, Antti Iho 205 $a1st ed. 2021. 210 1$aCham :$cSpringer International Publishing :$cImprint: Palgrave Macmillan,$d2021. 215 $a1 online resource $ccolour illustrations 225 1 $aPalgrave Studies in Agricultural Economics and Food Policy,$x2662-3897 311 08$aPrint version: Shortle, J.

The Way Forward. 330 $aWater pollution control has been a top environmental policy priority of the world's most developed countries for decades, and the focus of significant regulation and public and private spending. Yet, significant water quality problems remain, and trends for some pollutants are in the wrong direction. This book addresses the economics of water pollution control and water pollution control policy in agriculture, with an aim towards providing students, environmental policy analysts, and other environmental professionals with economic concepts and tools essential to understanding the problem and crafting solutions that can be effective and efficient. The book will also examine existing policies and proposed reforms in the developed world. Although this book addresses and has a general applicability to major water pollutants from agriculture (e.g., pesticides, pharmaceuticals, sediments, nutrients), it will focus on the sediment and nutrient pollution problem. The economic and scientific foundations for pollution management are best developed for these pollutants, and they are currently the top priorities of policy makers. Accordingly, the authors provide both highly salient and informative cases for developing concepts and methods of general applicability, with high profile examples such as the Chesapeake Bay, Lake Erie, and the Gulf of Mexico Dead Zone in the US; the Baltic Sea in Northern Europe; and Lake Taupo in New Zealand. . 410 0$aPalgrave Studies in Agricultural Economics and Food Policy,$x2662-3897 606 $aAgriculture$xEconomic aspects 606 $aEnvironmental economics 606 $aPolitical planning 606 $aWater 606 $aHydrology 606 $aAgricultural Economics 606 $aEnvironmental Economics 606 $aPublic Policy 606 $aWater 615 0$aAgriculture$xEconomic aspects. 615 0$aEnvironmental economics. 615 0$aPolitical planning. 615 0$aWater. 615 0$aHydrology. 615 14$aAgricultural Economics. 615 24$aEnvironmental Economics. 615 24$aPublic Policy. 615 24$aWater. 676 $a363.61091732 676 $a363.73946 700 $aShortle$b James$01082223 702 $aOllikainen$b Markku 702 $aIho$b Antti 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910484244703321 996 $aWater quality and agriculture$92597302 997 $aUNINA
