institutional reforms in new zealand fisheries as an ecological Modernization Project
Society & Natural Resources, 2011Co-Authors: P A Memon, Nick KirkAbstract:Ecological Modernization theory precepts have increasingly come to inform natural resource management policies in Western capitalist societies. Our objective is to analyze recent fisheries reforms in New Zealand informed by the theory of ecological Modernization. Ecological Modernization theory asserts that sustainability and economic growth can be achieved together through the introduction of new technologies, “economization” of the environment through introducing market-based instruments to internalize environmental externalities, and the devolution of responsibilities to relevant stakeholders. We argue, however, that ecological Modernization theory, strongly implicit in the language of recent New Zealand fisheries reforms, has produced uneven outcomes as a potential pathway toward sustainability.

how capitalism will save colonialism the privatization of reserve lands in canada
Antipode, 2015Co-Authors: Shiri PasternakAbstract:This paper surveys the ways in which the First Nations Property Ownership Act (FNPOA) is the site of both tension and alliance between state, non-state, and local Indigenous interests converging around a common agenda of land “Modernization” in Canada. It is a convergence, I argue, that must be read in the context of a reorganization of society under neoliberalism. The FNPOA legislation is discursively framed to acknowledge Indigenous land rights while the bill simultaneously introduces contentious measures to individualize and municipalize the quasi-communal land holding of reserves. The intersections of alliance around this land Modernization Project foreground the complex ways in which capitalism and colonialism, though inextricably tied, perform distinguishable economic processes, and how we must be attentive to the particulars of their co-articulation with local formations of indigeneity.

evaluation of cadastre renovation studies in turkey
Survey Review, 2015Co-Authors: Fatih DonerAbstract:In Turkey, cadastral surveys have been carried out by various measurement techniques, at different standards and based on different legislation. Consequently, one of the most important problems with the cadastre is that approximately half of the current cadastral maps are insufficient to meet the expectations of today’s modern cadastre. In order to resolve the problem and renew the cadastral maps, the General Directorate of Land Registry and Cadastre commenced the Land Registry and Cadastre Modernization Project in 2009. Within the scope of the Project, it is intended that 10 million parcels will be renewed by the end of 2014. This study aims to evaluate the cadastre renovation studies in Turkey with respect to their legal and technical aspects using a case study area. Results show that cadastre renovation studies may be insufficient to enrich and update the cadastral data. As a solution, legal amendments should be made in the Cadastre Law in a manner that will allow a new cadastral survey to be performed.

Land Reform and Large Landlords in South Korea's Modernization Project
Seoul Journal of Korean Studies, 2013Co-Authors: Sung-chan HongAbstract:The South Korean land reform was a compensated redistribution of land in the spring of 1950. In conjunction with the uncompensated confiscation of the March 1946 North Korean land reform, the two land reforms eliminated the long-standing landlord system and were a watershed moment in creating different agricultural and economic systems in the two Koreas. Many previous studies have discussed the background, process, and results of the South Korean land reform. This paper argues that the South Korean land reform was not only intended to eliminate the large landlord class, but was a policy package that combined government purchase of land, the transformation of landlords into capitalists, and the sale of land recovered from the Japanese. In this respect, the land reform was a large landlord-centered Modernization Project that aimed at giving them a soft landing by transforming the landlord class into commercial and industrial capitalists. In addition, this paper examines how the large landlord-centered policy of transferring capital from agriculture to industry was affected by the Korean War and hyperinflation. Finally, this paper discusses how the removal of large landlords from the countryside and their migration to the cities after the land reform influenced the rural power structure, the political consciousness of farmers, agricultural productivity, and the political base of the Syngman Rhee government in the 1950s.
