spatial restructuring and the logic of industrial land redevelopment in Urban china ii a case study of the redevelopment of a local state owned enterprise in nanjing
Land Use Policy, 2018Co-Authors: Jinlong Gao, Wen Chen, Yansui LiuAbstract:Abstract Stemming from the theoretical concepts worked out in detail in Paper I, this paper demonstrated in empirical terms on two major fronts. First, the redevelopment trajectory of industrial land in Nanjing was identified and was shown to consist of the dilemma of firm migration and the puzzle of space transformation. Second, the multiple rounds of bargaining between original land user and land owner were analyzed, and it was shown in particular how the industrial land of local state-owned enterprise (SOE) can be redeveloped under the control or intervene of Urban Government. Finally, we argued that the disputes between original land user and land owner on the sharing of redevelopment cost and the distribution of potential benefits constituted a potent system of explanatory coordinates that effectively reveals the hidden logic of industrial land redevelopment in Urban China. And the carrot-and-stick approach employed by local authorities is the key to breaking that deadlock.

high risk for occupational exposure to hiv and utilization of post exposure prophylaxis in a teaching hospital in pune india
BMC Infectious Diseases, 2008Co-Authors: Amita Gupta, Shuchi Anand, Jayagowri Sastry, Anandini Krisagar, Anita Basavaraj, Shreepad M Bhat, Nikhil Gupte, Robert C Bollinger, Arjun Lal KakraniAbstract:Background The risk for occupational exposure to HIV has been well characterized in the developed world, but limited information is available about this transmission risk in resource-constrained settings facing the largest burden of HIV infection. In addition, the feasibility and utilization of post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) programs in these settings are unclear. Therefore, we examined the rate and characteristics of occupational exposure to HIV and the utilization of PEP among health care workers (HCW) in a large, Urban Government teaching hospital in Pune, India.

making the choice the translation of global hiv and infant feeding policy to local practice among mothers in pune india
Journal of Nutrition, 2005Co-Authors: Anita V Shankar, Jayagowri Sastry, Ashwini Erande, Aparna Joshi, Nishi Suryawanshi, Mirdula A Phadke, Robert C BollingerAbstract:In 2003, India had over 5.1 million infected individuals living with HIV/AIDS. The percentage of all HIV cases attributed to perinatal transmission has been increasing steadily from 0.33% of total cases in 1999 to 2.80% in 2004. Recent statistics indicate that over 130,000 infants have been infected through this route. Despite recent advances in reducing in utero and interpartum transmission with the use of antiretrovirals, there is a critical need to make infant feeding safer. Current UNAIDS/WHO/UNICEF recommendations stress avoidance of all breast-feeding if replacement feeding fulfills the key requirements of being affordable, feasible, acceptable, sustainable, and safe. In this paper, we examine how the UNAIDS/WHO/UNICEF recommendations have been actualized within the context of an Urban Government hospital in India. The documented patterns of infant feeding by HIV-positive mothers in Pune, India, from 2000 to 2004, highlight the complexities of making an informed and healthy choice under suboptimal conditions. The data indicate that interpersonal variations in the key requirements greatly influence the optimal practice to minimize mortality risks. Moreover, local information on health outcomes is crucial to tailoring policy recommendations to save lives. We propose the development of a decision-making algorithm that includes factors affecting mother-to-infant transmission, including site-specific data on health risks to the mother and the child. Such an algorithm would allow identification of the healthiest feeding choice and would minimize the pitfalls of promoting homogeneous practices lacking site-specific evidence-based evaluation.

spatial apportionment of Urban greenhouse gas emission inventory and its implications for Urban planning a case study of xiamen china
Ecological Indicators, 2018Co-Authors: Guoqin Zhang, Tao Lin, Ning HuangAbstract:Abstract Cities have become a major source of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and controlling Urban GHG emissions is a critical response to global climate change. Many previous studies on Urban GHG emissions focused on inventories, changes and impact factors but few investigated the distribution of spatial sources within a city. Although inventories of a city can give information of GHG emissions from different sectors, Urban Government and planners need to know where emissions occur and how (or why) they occur where they do. It is thus important to spatially apportion GHG emission within a city for the practical application of GHG emission management and policies. In this study, we develop a framework for the spatial apportionment of Urban GHG emissions. Xiamen is taken as a typical rapidly Urbanizing city in China to demonstrate the framework of spatial apportionment. Results show that the ranking of GHG emission intensity for different land-use types of the city is manufacturing, mining, warehouse land, service industry land, transportation land, residential land and agriculture land with a ratio of 89:54:23:14:1. The vast majority of land for GHG sequestration was located in the peripheral area of the city and most land-use types in the central region of Xiamen had high GHG emissions. The implication for low-carbon Urban planning is then discussed in terms of structure and connection strategies. Integrated with socioeconomic factors and Urban land-use distribution, the spatial apportionment of GHG emission inventory can provide a more accurate analysis of emission sources and better management of emission sources through Urban planning.

development rights markets to manage Urban plans in italy
Urban Studies, 2002Co-Authors: Ezio MicelliAbstract:Urban economists and planners have been debating the possibility of using innovative methods and tools in managing Urban plans to increase their effectiveness. According to many theoretical contributions, a major step would lie in shifting from the use of authoritative tools towards market-based ones. The institution of a development rights market in order to implement Urban plans represents a major attempt to transfer into the practical Urban Government such a theoretical perspective. Several significant elements emerge from an analysis of the major case studies of development rights markets in Italy. First, markets for development rights do not replace the command-and-control tools traditionally used in planning. In reality, the success of the new markets seems to depend significantly on their integration with the latter. Furthermore, markets for development rights have not proved to be automatic devices led by an invisible hand: the visible hands of the administrations take steps to establish market ru...
