    “Greening” the National Growth: How Global Green Growth Institute (GGGI) Collaborates with Indonesia in 2014-2020

    Get PDF
    With its natural richness, Indonesia is not immune from environmental, economic, and social problems. Indonesia remains facing the problem of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and environmental degradation resulting from economic activities caused by business-as-usual (BaU) activities. Therefore, Indonesia has developed a framework for a green growth program for national economic development with the Global Green Growth Institute (GGGI) since 2014. GGGI is an international organization that is specifically concerned about green growth at the global level. The Green Growth Concept was agreed upon at the 2005 Asia Pacific ministerial meetings in Seoul, South Korea. Indonesia also ratified the agreements to implement this green growth concept at the national level. This research elaborates on how GGGI, as a global actor, collaborates with Indonesia to develop the green growth framework. This study uses a descriptive qualitative research method with secondary data collection through literature, which will discuss GGGI's efforts to help implement the green growth program in Indonesia in 2014-2020. The case study is analyzed through the Management Approach, Normative Approach, and Enforcement Approach approaches. Through these three approaches, GGGI has succeeded in assisting Indonesia in implementing green growth in Indonesia in 2014-2020. Some of the programs that have been achieved include the eCBA program, the development of Special Economic Zones (KEK), and the implementation of the legal regulations in force in Indonesia. Keywords: enforcement approach, Global Green Growth Institute (GGGI), Green Growth program, management approach, normative approac

    Green and climate finance options to support the post-Covid-19 pandemic recovery and climate action

    Get PDF
    This report is a joint publication developed by the United Nations Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific (ESCAP) and the Global Green Growth Institute (GGGI). The report was prepared by a core team including Masato Abe, Zeinab Elbeltagy, Zenathan Adnin Hasannudin, Alberto Isgut, Patrick Martin, Deanna Morris, Aneta Nikolova, Tero Raassina and Lasse Ringius.&nbsp;Most of the policy measures introduced in 2020 and 2021 as a response to the socioeconomic crises induced by the COVID-19 pandemic focused on addressing health concerns and a speedy economic recovery. Considerably less attention has been paid &nbsp;to combatting climate change and preventing environmental degradation, for which many governments in the Asia Pacific region lack the needed financial resources. There are, however, various options to mobilize green and climate finance to address climate change, recover from the COVID-19 pandemic, and achieve a wider range of environmental and sustainable development objectives. Enhancing the availability of green and climate financing and developing clear, coherent and supportive policies are crucial for all economies in the region to recover swiftly and resume growth in a resilient and sustainable manner. This report examines critical policy gaps and barriers to climate finance, such as constrained fiscal space, weak institutional capacities to implement Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs), policy and regulatory gaps, and &nbsp;lack of investment-ready projects. To enable green growth and sustainable development in the region, these barriers need to be overcome in line with each country&rsquo;s long-term strategic development vision and broad legal framework, as well as international commitments to reduce greenhouse gas emissions through initiatives such as the NDCs. The report also discusses a range of financial instruments and mechanisms, including project finance, funds and facilities, thematic bonds, carbon pricing, and debt for climate swaps, and &nbsp;highlights their utility, scalability, governance and related monitoring issues. Implementing these instruments and mechanisms can help overcome existing challenges to climate change finance and unlock the growing private sector demand for green and climate investment opportunities.&nbsp; This report is a joint publication developed by the United Nations Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific (ESCAP) and the Global Green Growth Institute (GGGI). ESCAP and GGGI are working together to support the Asia-Pacific region in reaching its climate targets through research, technical assistance, and support for innovative financing solutions targeted at climate action. Together we believe that NDCs need to be drastically enhanced to achieve carbon neutrality by 2050 &ndash; however, these commitments need to be accommodated by policy action and financing to support investment in a green future.</p

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    Get PDF
    The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed

    Variations on the Author

    “Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship

    Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis

    Get PDF
    We provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
