Analyticalis an electronic journal published
by Analytica, which is focused on studying and analyzing the recent and ongoing
socio-political and economic developments in the Western Balkans and the wider
region. The journal will include contributions that approach the subject area –
countries of the Western Balkans – from various perspectives: political, IR,
economic, historical, sociological, educational, etc.
Analytical now accepts submissions for the
second (fall-winter) issue for 2008. The topic of this issue is:
Scarcity and
Exploitation of Natural Resources in Developing Societies
Contemporary development debates often feature discussions
about the environmental impact and effects of development measures and policies
of the developing world. Scientists warn on the adverse effects that
uncontrolled development policies can have on the natural resources and the
environment. Therefore, recently even development aid is conditioned on respect
of specific environmental standards.
However, environmental debate is more present in developed
countries than the developing ones and there is a need to raise the
policy-makers’ and especially public awareness about preserving and prudent use
of natural resources for development purposes. In the western Balkans, where
all states aspire to join the European Union, this drive towards environmental
awareness and resource preservation is provided by the EU requirements and
standards in the area of environment. These drives towards faster growth and
development and greater environmental awareness and protection pose a challenge
for the policy-makers in western Balkans states – one well worth investigating.
The contributions for this issue are expected to address the
subject of scarcity and exploitation of natural resources from a variety of
theoretical and empirical perspectives. Interdisciplinary approaches are
particularly welcome. Particularly welcome are contributions examining: alternative
and innovative ways towards environment- friendly development, impact of
scarcity of natural resources on development policies, EU accession environment
standards performance of Western Balkans countries. Other original and
innovative contributions are also welcome.
