No full textTranscript (28 pages) of an interview by Savani Aupiu with Sarina Brown on 23 September 2009. Part of the Pacific Islanders Oral History Project, Everett Cooley Collection tape no. U-2017Sarina Brown grew up in Hawaii. Her family moved to Oregon when she was in ninth grade and she now lives in Utah with her husband and four boys. She describes growing up in Hawaii where her family lived two miles from civilization. When her family moved to Oregon she experienced culture shock because it was so different from Hawaii. Sarina has six sisters and seven brothers. She talks about growing up in a huge family. Her father was a teacher and the family struggled financially because there were so many children to support. The whole family played music together. Sarina explains the cultural differences between herself as a child and her children. She talks about her membership in the LDS church and her parents´ conversions to the LDS church. She discusses being Polynesian in Oregon and in Utah. Though she has not felt discriminated against she has felt different because of her ethnicity. She has liked living and Utah and thinks they will be in Utah for a while. Project: Pacific Islanders.

Networks with spatially distributed externalities
Full text linkRegulating spatially distributed pollution poses a big challenge as the standard regulating instruments such as cap-and-trade or command-and-control systems that usually implement an efficient allocation do not work facing spatially distributed pollution or an authority to enforce them is missing. The problem of optimal pollution control is further aggravated by the presence of asymmetric information as many governments face limitations in monitoring the mitigation costs or the pollution flows. In this thesis, I consider multi-polluter networks and analyse if and to what extent the efficient levels of pollution can be implemented by voluntary agreements or regulatory instruments when pollution is spatially distributed. The thesis consists of three chapters.
In chapter 1, co-authored with Ralph Winkler, we consider the problem of efficient emission abatement in a multi-polluter setting, where agents are located along a river in which net emissions accumulate and induce negative externalities to downstream riparians. Assuming a cooperative transferable utility game, we seek welfare distributions that are in the non-cooperative core and satisfy a specific fairness constraint. Meaning, we search for welfare distributions that satisfy all agents’ participation constraints, in that each coalition is at least as well off as it were if acting on its own and that is perceived to be fair, in that no coalition is better off than it were if all non-members of the coalition do not pollute the river at all. We show that the downstream incremental distribution, as introduced by Ambec and Sprumont (2002), is the only welfare distribution satisfying both constraints. In addition, we show that this result holds true for numerous extensions of our model.
In chapter 2, we analyse the contractual mitigation of a global public bad along a river in the presence of a federalist governance structure, where the lower tiers have private information about their abatement costs. We propose that the federal government nominates one of the lower tiers to be the principal, who is authorized to offer mitigation contracts to the other tiers sharing the river. The elected principal can do so either in a centralizedmanner, i.e. he offers contracts simultaneously to all other tiers, or in a delegated manner, i.e. he starts an upstream and downstream sequential contracting process by contracting with his up- and downriver neighbouring tiers, to which he then gives the authority to subcontract with their respective neighbouring tiers till all tiers received a contract. We showthat under certain conditions, a nominated principal can achieve the same abatement allocation with the delegated as with the centralized contracting method while matching his expected costs. As all potential principals implement a different abatement allocation, the choice of the prime principal matters for the total expected costs occurring in the river basin. We show that the tier located most downriver, which is subject to the same informational constraints as the federal government, is never the best choice to be nominated as the principal.
In the third and final chapter, we propose a second-best optimal solution to the problem of pollution abatement in a multi-polluter network with heterogeneously dispersed pollution. Instead of taking an exogenously given and predetermined pollution cap in a cap-and-trade system, the pollution cap is endogenized so that it is determined by the total cost-minimizing equilibrium of a cap-and-trade system. We show that with quadratic abatement costs and linear damage costs, the first-best optimal pollution cap implements the second-best cost-minimizing equilibrium of the cap-and-trade system for any network. However, the second-best optimal abatement allocation differs from the first-best optimal abatement allocation, implying higher second-best optimal total costs than first-best optimal. In particular, second-best optimal total abatement costs fall short of first-best total abatement costs, while second-best optimal total damage costs exceed first-best optimal damage costs. These findings hold for two different cap-and-trade systems considered, the emission permit market and the ambient pollution market

Penelitian dalam skripsi ini dilatarbelakangi oleh pengembangan usaha yang dilakukan oleh UD. Sarina, karena UD. Sarina merupakan industry home pertama yang memproduksi kerupuk amplang di Sumenep. Sampai saat ini UD. Sarina masih tetap bertahan meskipun bertambah banyaknya pesaing yang sama-sama memproduksi kerupuk amplang. Fokus penelitian ini yaitu untuk mengetahui strategi pengembangan usaha yang dilakukan oleh UD. Sarina.
Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dengan jenis pendekatan studi kasus serta menggunakan data primer dan sekunder sebagai sumber data yang diperoleh dari hasil wawancara, dokumentasi dan observasi. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa strategi pengembangan usaha yang dilakukan oleh UD. Sarina melaui indikator-indikator seperti peningkatan jumlah pelanggan, peningkatan kualitas produk dan peningkatan kualitas SDM.
Kata Kunci : strategi pengembangan usaha, peningkatan jumlah pelanggan, peningkatan kualitas produk, peningkatan kualitas SDM
