This essay deals with the concepts of Sustainable Land Management (SLM) and Land Degradation Neutrality (LDN). 2018 Level: debutante The importance of a Land Degradation Neutrality approach to achieving Sustainable Land Management Pınar Topçu Exploring Economics Professor Jennifer Clapp explains the dynamics of financialization of land and agricultural commodities in Subsaharan Africa.

Georgism is an interesting school of thought because it has the twin properties that (1) despite a cult following, few people in either mainstream or (non-Georgist) heterodox economics pay it much heed; (2) despite not paying it much heed, both mainstream and heterodox economists largely tend to agree with Georgists. I will focus on the potential benefits Georgists argue an LVT will bring and see if they are borne out empirically. But I will begin by giving a nod to the compelling theoretical and ethical dimensions of George’s analysis, which are impossible to ignore. 2020 Level: debutante It’s the Land, Stupid!
