As demand for natural resources increases due to the rise in world population and living standards, conflicts over their access and control are becoming more prevalent. This book critically assesses different approaches to and conceptualizations of resource fairness and justice and applies them to the analysis of resource conflicts.Approaches addressed include cosmopolitan liberalism, political economy and political ecology. These are applied at various scales (local, national, international) and to initiatives and instruments in public and private resource governance, such as corporate social responsibility instruments, certification schemes, international law and commodity markets. In doing so, the contributions contrast existing approaches to fairness and justice and extend them by taking into account the interplay between political scales, regions, resources, and power structures in "glocalized" resource politics. Various case studies are included concerning agriculture, agrofuels, land grabbing, water resources, mining and biodiversity. The volume adds to the academic and policy debate by bringing together a variety of disciplines and perspectives in order to advance both a research and policy agenda that puts notions of resource fairness and justice center-stage.

No-one obsesses over property quite like the British, even though buying and selling a home can be a personal headache and a financial lucky-dip. British newspapers groan under the weight of property supplements; TV reports constantly track house prices; young people fret about getting on the property ladder, while established homeowners worry about how to increase the value of their home or the market crashing. Buying a property is rarely straightforward and can be very time-consuming. There are numerous choices to make, from the style of building and location, to proximity to schoo

Fondé sur le dépouillement de documents publics inédits conservés à l’Archivio di Stato di Napoli, ce livre propose une histoire politique de l’opéra à Naples, depuis l’avènement de Ferdinand IV jusqu’à la chute des Napoléonides. Fondé en 1737, le Teatro di San Carlo demeure tout au long de la période l’écrin de la représentation royale. Mais à partir des années 1770, mettant en jeu son autorité d’accréditation culturelle, le monarque s’aventure en d’autres lieux et promeut d’autres genres de spectacle. La question de la police des théâtres devient alors un terrain d’expérimentation du réformisme bourbonien, puis un enjeu essentiel dans la politisation des arts lors de la Révolution de 1799 et du decennio francese. Mais les normes imposées par les administrations butent toujours sur les pratiques d’un milieu musical qui s’émancipe de la tutelle politique, en même temps qu’il se professionnalise et se hiérarchise. Ultimement, gouverner l’opéra consiste aussi pour le pouvoir à défendre le rang de Naples en tant que capitale musicale : s’observent ici les prémisses d’une « politique culturelle » de définition et de préservation du patrimoine musical dont l’identité napolitaine est proclamée.
