naTural Hazards, unnaTural disasTersThe Economics of Effective PreventionEarthquakes, droughts, floods, and storms are natural hazards, but unnatural disasters are the deaths and damages that result from human acts of omission and commission . Every disaster is unique, but each exposes actions—by individuals and governments at different levels—that, had they been different, would have resulted in fewer deaths and less damage . Prevention is possible, and this book examines what it takes to do this cost-effectively .

Natural Hazards, UnNatural Disasters looks at disasters primarily through an economic lens . Economists emphasize self-interest to explain how people choose the amount of prevention, insurance, and coping . But lenses can distort as well as sharpen images, so the book also draws from other disciplines: psychology to examine how people may misperceive risks, political science to understand voting patterns, and nutrition science to see how stunting in children after a disaster impairs cognitive abilities and productivity as adults much later . Peering into the future, it shows that growing cities will increase exposure to hazards, but that vulnerability will not rise if cities are better managed . As the intensities and frequencies of hazards in the coming decades will change with the climate, the book also examines this complicated and contentious subject, acknowledging all the limitations of data and science .

Key selling Points:

n Applies cost-benefit analysis to assess how incentives and information on preventive measures can be distorted and how they can be corrected .

n Reviews latest findings from other disciplines (political science, ecology, psychology, nutrition science, climate change science) to provide a multifaceted understanding of the nature and effects of disasters and how we perceive and interpret their risks .

n Lays out the links among the three C’s: cities, climate change, and catastrophes .

n Includes 5 “spotlights” on actual disasters to highlight lessons learned, including the 2010 earthquake in Haiti, 2004 Indian ocean tsunami, 1991 Marmara earthquake in Turkey, 2007 Cyclone Sidr in Bangladesh, and a series of droughts in Ethiopia .

n Written in an engaging way that makes the multidisciplinary findings accessible to a broad, nontechnical audience .

n Will be of interest to government officials, civil engineers, city planners, donors and international relief agencies, NGos, and other development practitioners .

n Study endorsed by four Nobel Laureates in Economics .

risinG Global inTeresT in farMland Can it Yield Sustainable and Equitable Benefits?By Klaus Deininger and Derek Byerlee

This book aims to provide key pieces of information needed for informed debate about large-scale land acquisition by drawing on the experience from past land expansions, discussing predictions for potential future demand, and providing empirical evidence of what is happening on the ground in the countries most affected by the recent increase in demand for land .

It complements demand-side considerations with a detailed assessment of the amount of land, whether currently cultivated or not, that might potentially be available for agricultural cultivation at the global and country levels . It then describes in some detail the policies in place to manage land acquisition processes and analyzes how these policies may affect outcomes . This can help governments in land-abundant countries to assess how best to integrate increased demand for

land into their rural development strategies and provide opportunities and benefits to all involved, including existing smallholders . This is particularly important as many of these countries also have high yield gaps . It also highlights how, in cases where land acquisition by large investors makes sense from a social, economic, and environmental perspective, governments can create an environment that can help to attract outside investment that contributes to broad-based growth and poverty reduction .

Key selling Points:

n First book to systematically analyze the reasons and consequences of the “global land rush” following the 2008 global food price crisis .

n Highlights the risks associated with large-scale investment, and advises on how governments can create an environment to attract investment that contributes to broad-based growth and poverty reduction in cases where land acquisition by large investors makes sense from a social, economic, and environmental perspective .

n Combines demand-side analysis with assessment of land supply for cropland expansion .

n Draws on a variety of methodologies, including – compiling country inventories of large land transfers during

2004–09 in 14 countries based on data officially available to in-country consultants .

– analysis of media reports on large investments in 2008–09 .n on a somewhat controversial topic, the report was leaked to the

media and already got coverage in international media outlets such as the Financial Times and The Economist .

n The principal audience for the book is policy makers, as well as academics, NGos, and private-sector leaders .

CHanGinG THe indusTrial GeoGraPHy in asiaThe Impact of China and India By Shahid Yusuf and Kaoru Nabeshima

A great burst of globalization brought the 20th century to a close, creating upheaval in the world economy from roughly 1995 to 2008 . And now, with the new century barely commenced, a second upheaval is in the offing following the severe financial crisis that plunged the global economy into recession in 2008—09 . The first upheaval witnessed a massive migration of manufacturing and certain business services that transformed Asia into the industrial heartland of the world . The second upheaval will likely consolidate Asia’s industrial preeminence and could result in a concentration of industrial activities in the two most populous and fastest-growing Asian economies—China and India .

As the two Asian giants become the industrial equals of the United States, Germany, and Japan, the ramifications will affect trade and growth worldwide, the future of development in China and India, and industrialization throughout Asia . Changing the Industrial Geography in Asia: The Impact of China and India examines these developments, focusing specifically on China and India . Its analysis and conclusions will be of particular interest to policy makers and academics, as well as anyone with an interest in how China and India are likely to reshape industry throughout Asia .

Key selling Points:

n Follow-up volume to author’s bestselling Dancing With Giants: China, India, and the Global Economy (January 2007, ISBN: 978-0-8213-6749-0), with an updated and more in-depth analysis of the industrial competitiveness of China and India and how they are impacting the other economies in Asia .

n Indicates the implications for manufacturing activities in the major economies of East and South Asia, with China and India emerging as the heartlands of global manufacturing .

n Applies cutting-edge methodologies and synthesizes an array of data and literature to assess the changing industrial structures of China, India, and other economies in Asia, the competitiveness of their manufacturing industries, and their relative prospects for moving up the value chain .

n Identifies and assesses the five factors that will determine the future industrial geography in Asia .

n Presents three future scenarios and suggests what Asian economies can do to achieve sustainable growth .

Global Value CHains in a PosTCrisis WorldA Development PerspectiveEdited by Olivier Cattaneo, Gary Gereffi, and Cornelia Staritz

In response to the global downturn, a number of governments have passed stimulus packages and other measures that aim to preserve domestic industries and jobs, and sometimes discriminate against foreign producers (e .g ., “buy local” laws) . The response to the crisis from governments around the world potentially has significant implications for global production, trade, and value chains . This book tries to answer the following questions: How have lead firms responded to these changes? Have they changed their traditional supply chain strategy and relocated and/or outsourced part of their production? How will those changes affect developing countries?

Key selling Points:

n Addresses how leading firms such as Apple, Aeropostale, General Motors, Volkswagon, Verizon, Toshiba, Timberland, Tata Motors, Sprint, Sun Microsystems, have responded to the crisis by changing their traditional supply chain strategy and relocated and/or outsourced part of their production .

n Examines how those changes affect developing countries and what are the policy responses to these changes .

n Will be of interest to economists, policy makers, academics, and executives in the private sector, particularly in international corporations .
