There is a series of arguments that decentralization of governments enhances growth by improving allocation efficiency. However, the empirical studies have shown mixed results for industrialized and developing countries and some of them have demonstrated that there might be a threshold level of economic development below which decentralization is not effective. Developing and transition countries have developed a variety of forms of fiscal decentralization as a possible strategy to achieve effective and efficient governmental structures. A generalized principle of decentralization due to the country specific circumstances does not exist. Therefore, decentra- lization has taken place in different forms in various countries at different times, and even exactly the same extent of decentralization may have had different impacts under different conditions.

  • How to Create Efficient, Reliable and Clean Electricity Markets: a Regulatory Design for Mongolia and Northeast Asia
    MASTER’S THESIS HOW TO CREATE EFFICIENT, RELIABLE AND CLEAN ELECTRICITY MARKETS: A REGULATORY DESIGN FOR MONGOLIA AND NORTHEAST ASIA Working title: Beyond Mining: Barriers to Renewable Energy Investments in Mongolia Paul Maidowski International Relations (B.A.) University of Dresden, 2010 Thesis Advisor: Professor William Moomaw SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE: MASTER OF ARTS IN LAW AND DIPLOMACY THE FLETCHER SCHOOL OF LAW AND DIPLOMACY SEPTEMBER 13, 2012 Version history V 1. Original: September 13, 2012 V 2. Updated: December 7, 2012 V 2.1. Slightly edited: December 8, 2012 Abstract This paper develops a comprehensive proposal for how Mongolia’s domestic power sector could be made more efficient, reliable and sustainable. The analysis is based on inter- views in Ulaanbaatar. It reviews the literature on power sector reforms in small developing countries and regional electricity markets. In a second step, a framework is proposed for a re- gional electricity market between Mongolia, Russia and China. In principle, this framework is applicable also to South Korea and Japan. The findings include that inadequate regulation has contributed to performance prob- lems in every aspect of Mongolia’s power sector, which remains a horizontally integrated monopoly. A lack of generation capacity was ignored for decades; as a result, supply is ex- pected to fall critically short of demand for the coming 3 to 5 years. Mongolia possesses rich coal resources, but water scarcity, harmful emissions, high vulnerability to the effects of cli- mate change, social constraints and the need for economic diversification will limit the future role of conventional technologies.

  • Hazards and Human-Environment Systems in the Gobi Desert, Asia Troy Sternberg* School of Geography, South Parks Road, Oxford, OX1 3QY, UK
    aphy & N r at og u e ra G l Sternberg, J Geogr Nat Disast 2013, 3:1 f D o i s l a Journal of a s DOI: 10.4172/2167-0587.1000106 n t r e u r s o J ISSN: 2167-0587 Geography & Natural Disasters ResearchResearch Article Article OpenOpen Access Access Hazards and Human-Environment Systems in the Gobi Desert, Asia Troy Sternberg* School of Geography, South Parks Road, Oxford, OX1 3QY, UK Abstract Climate hazards are a significant challenge for human and environmental systems in the Gobi Desert, Asia. Drought and extreme cold events frame ecological productivity and livelihood viability in the region. To investigate hazard impact this study uses the Standard Precipitation Index (SPI) to identify drought in southern Mongolia from 1970-2006. It then examines the relationship of drought with climate factors and its interaction with local human and livestock populations. Stressing the extreme winter disasters of 1999-2001 the study then evaluates the resilience of human-environment systems in the Gobi .Results indicate that drought is recurrent in the region, reaching extreme intensity most recently in 2005-2006. In contrast to the prevailing concept of drought impacting severe winters, the study did not find a connection between the two natural hazards. The principal long-term correlation of drought is with human population rather than natural factors, extreme conditions, or livestock numbers. Findings reflect human and landscape resilience when encountering drought and extreme winter conditions. Keywords: Drought; Dzud; Hazard; Mongolia; Standard in isolation from herder action and impact [15,16]. This is essential precipitation index when considering how subtle fluctuations in natural conditions or human action can impact livelihood and grassland productivity.
