Navarro, Ignacio Antonio. "Housing tenure, property rights, and urban development in developing countries." Diss., Georgia Institute of Technology, 2008. http://hdl.handle.net/1853/24668.

Abstract:

The dissertation explores how distinctive institutional factors related to property rights determine urban development patterns and housing tenure modalities in a developing economy context. The first part proposes a choice-theoretic model that explains the existence of the Antichresis contractual arrangement as a way to temporarily divide property rights. The model explains why the Antichresis contract dominates the Periodic-Rent contract in terms of landlord profits for certain types of property in which the gains in expected profits from solving the problem of adverse selection of tenants o

Abstract:

This paper studies the impact of a fragmented labor market on city structure to explain the spatial coexistence of formal and informal labor sectors characteristic of cities in developing countries. I explore reasons for structural differences among cities in developed and developing countries, which current models in urban economics and New Economic Geography have not yet considered. While existing models suggest that poorer people will live in the periphery of the city, I relax assumptions of uniform space requirement and commuting costs to show that clusters of informal labor will form with

Abstract:

This thesis investigated the sustainability of community water management in small towns of developing countries by using case studies from Ghana. Sustainability is investigated as a multi-faceted concept encompassing technical, managerial, institutional and organisational issues. The study is particularly relevant because over one billion of the world's population lacks access to safe drinking water with resultant poverty, morbidity and mortality among the World's most vulnerable, a significant proportion of who live in small towns of developing countries. Small town dwellers are likely to in

Abstract:

Bicycle-sharing programs are a new trend in urban transportation. The main difference of a bicycle-sharing program with a regular bicycle rental is that is possible to get a bicycle in one station and return it in any other station. There are many models of bicycle sharing, each model with its pros and cons. This study analyzes the bicycle-sharing models in order to build a proposal of a bicycle-sharing program suitable for Brazilian median cities. The study begins with an overview of bicycle transportation, followed by the analysis of different bicycle-sharing programs. The last chapter formu

Abstract:

This thesis examines urban political conflict in the late Middle Ages (c. 1370-1440) in Europe’s most heavily urbanised regions, Italy and the Southern Low Countries. Conflicts have frequently been viewed in the context of an emerging state-controlled political order, and have been interpreted either as forms of disruptive disorder, or as affirmations of political processes shaped by states. This thesis suggests that urban conflict should be studied not in the context of a state-controlled political order, but within the political framework provided by the numerous semi-autonomous jurisdiction

Kinshasa connaît de nombreuses manifestations de l’érosion ravinante depuis quelques décennies. L’office de drainage et de voirie en estime environ 400 en 2009 et 500 en 2010. L’érosion ravinante est un processus géodynamique qui agit en faveur de la gravité. Or, elle ne se manifeste pas partout en milieu urbain, même au sein des quartiers construits sur de fortes pentes ;ce qui suggère qu’il y aurait des dimensions humaines inscrites dans l’espace qui l’accélèrent ou la freinent.<p>En s’appuyant sur l’approche cartographique des données issues de la télédétection, des documents cartographique

Abstract:

Vulnerability to weather-related hazards is a considerable humanitarian, economic and environmental concern for cities, especially in developing countries. However, there is a limited understanding of urban vulnerability and its specific implications. This study assesses the spatio-temporal vulnerability caused by climatic and societal change in Chile’s key coastal urban areas. In this urban vulnerability assessment, both regional and local approaches were undertaken, the former to give a broad sense of the possible futures that these cities face and the latter to explore, using all available

Abstract:

Corporate social responsibility is an approach used in corporations and enterprises where the rights of stakeholders are addressed. The main focus of a business is to make a profit and a major duty of corporate governance is to maximise the profit. A problem arises when an organization makes a profit only for its shareholders and does not care about responsibilities to its other stakeholders. This is one reason why the concept of CSR originated, to encourage companies to incorporate social and environmental concerns within their business activities. This should be a voluntary act of the compan
