PhD thesis, Wageningen University, Wageningen, NL (2016) With references, with summaries in English and Dutch ISBN 978-94-6257-644-5 Acknowledgements Throughout my PhD I have always realized how very fortunate I am to have a job that I love doing, that enables me to travel to so many beautiful places, and that allows me to meet so many wonderful people around the world. I would like to take this opportunity to thank those who have been most important to me during my PhD. The two people who have been most crucial in shaping my PhD research are my supervisor, Aarti Gupta, and my promotor, Arthur Mol, both for whom I have the highest respect. Together they formed the perfect supervising team. Aarti, thank you for your wonderful guidance through the start of my career, for teaching me all I need to know about academia, and for helping me to make possible all the wonderful learning experiences during my PhD. The knowledge and experience I gained are invaluable and will continue to guide me through the rest of my career and life. The more colleagues I met during my PhD, the more I became convinced of how extremely fortunate I have been with you as my one and only supervisor throughout my MSc and PhD research. Thank you for always providing timely, very critical, and extremely helpful feedback on my work. Thank you also for your support during difficult times, and for asking the right questions that made me tell you things about my personal life that I otherwise only tell to my closest friends and parents. Tuur, I could not have wished for a better promotor. You were always miles ahead in your thinking about my research. Even in case I was not immediately excited about your ideas, I always found myself - sometimes many months later - doing as you suggested. Considering my usual stubbornness this tells everything about the excellence and timeliness of your advice. I am also extremely grateful to you for encouraging me to stay in academia and showing me the opportunity to apply for the Niels Stensen Fellowship. The moment the idea for my post-doc research took shape in my head, I knew this would be the next step in my career. I cannot be more enthusiastic about this exciting soon-to-start new step, which, I am sure, will be decisive for the rest of my career and life. The Environmental Policy (ENP) Group has been the ideal working environment. I have always felt respected, at ease and even at home among my colleagues. The many formal and informal meetings, discussions, research colloquia, lunches, drinks, PhD diners, PhD trips and parties were as enjoyable as they were constructive. Of the many colleagues whom I had the pleasure of getting to know, I am especially happy that my wonderful colleague Judith Floor became my closest friend. Judith, I always love sharing tea and talking with you about work, life and love. It is amazing how our conversations never end. Thank you for being such a huge support to me in both happy and difficult times. I am proud of having you as my paranymph. Thanks to all my colleagues from the ENP Group for the many discussions, words of advice, and for increasing my enthusiasm and love for my job. A special thanks to Corry Rothuizen, not only for her help with practicalities during my research, but also for her useful and straightforward advice V and her comforting listening ear. I would also like to thank Gert Spaargaren for the valuable discussions, advice and feedback on my research; Hilde Toonen for her advice during my PhD and post-doc application; Sammy Letema for his friendship, advice and unwavering belief in me during my proposal writing; Linde van Bets for our down- to-earth discussions; Tracey O’Conner for her ingenious out-of-the-box imagination and wonderful sense of humor; Harry Barnes-Dabban for his infectious laugh; Dorien Korbee for her wisdom; Mairon Bastos Lima for our many interesting discussions about REDD+ and beyond; Mattijs Smits for our useful discussions and his feedback on my work; Bas van Vliet for organizing our yearly “Don’t worry we have Corry” team in the Veluweloop; Jennifer Lenhart for her inspirational travel stories and sparkling energy; and Martijn van Staveren for making me laugh so. To my colleagues from ENP and the rest of the world: Carolina Maciel, Nila Kamil, Sarah Stattman, Nguyen Dung, Dan Liang, Alice Miller, Ingrid Boas, Kris van Koppen, Kari Stange, Jullian Student, Eira Carballo Cardenas, Joeri Naus, Natapol Thongplew, Simon Bush, Alexey Pristupa, Elizabeth Sargant, Leah Ombis, Megan Bailey, Debasish Kundu, Maria Tysiachniouk, Imke van Asseldonk, Frank de Feijter, Janice Weatherley, Joyde Giacomini Martínez, Bishowamber Kadhka, Radhika Borde, Robert Ochieng, Giulia Salvini, Jessica de Koning, Ingrid Visseren-Hamakers, Martin Herold, Greetje Schouten, Debora de Block, Olufunso Somorin, Jelle Behagel, Michael Schultz, Niki de Sy, Luke Kemp, Uthra Radhakrishnan, Dhanush Dinesh, Dipesh Joshi, Jazmín Gonzales Tovar, Yasmeen TelWala, Divya Gupta, Evaiahun Kharkongor, Clare Tompsett, Aurore Viard-Crétat, Andrew Tirrell, Christoph Oberlack, Shailesh Nagar, and Rajdeep Singh, thank you for the many inspirational chats and discussions. During my many travels for my MSc and PhD, I learned that neither distances nor differences are barriers to forming the closest of friends. Particularly India and some of its inhabitants have gained a special place in my heart. I would like to thank all my Indian friends and colleagues for their kindness, for their never-ending willingness to help, and for guiding me through their country and culture. I would especially like to thank my awesome friend Aswin Suresh Nair, my “man of the hour”. Thank you for making me laugh so much and for our never-ending discussions about life. Thank you also for re-designing the figures in my thesis and for giving advice on the cover design. Also a special thanks to Swapan Mehra for his friendship and the many inspiring discussions about my research design, research topic, and about life. Thank you for always keeping me sharp. Thanks also to Ashish Aggarwal for his feedback on my work and for the many interesting discussions about REDD+ in India. Special thanks to Tambor Lyngdoh, his wife and family for offering a place to stay in the wonderful village Mawphlang and for their great assistance during my fieldwork in the beautiful Khasi hills. Tambor, thank you for our many interesting discussions about the REDD+ project. I would also like to thank Alok Grover for transcribing my interviews, as well as Darinylla Lacias and Bornlang Blah for translating the questionnaires and interviews. VI From my Indian friends: finally but never least in my mind, a very special thanks to Sahoo for his never failing love. I owe Wageningen University most of my education and, till now, my entire career. There are two other organizations that I would like to mention. I am very happy to have had the chance to stay as visiting scholar at the Center for International Forestry Research (CIFOR). It gave me plenty of inspiration, knowledge, experiences and invaluable data for the final article of my PhD. Maria Brockhaus, thank you so much for inviting me to CIFOR. I wish to also thank all my colleagues and friends whom I met at CIFOR for many inspirational discussions. The friendships I built in Bogor are priceless: Gangga, Angie, Gijs, Gilang, Priyanka, Hety, Wahyu, Aidy, Indah, Intan, Lisa, Rachel, Bimo, Christine, Selly, Dinda, Aneesh, Fe, Liz, Diego, Louis, Cynthia, Putri and Wahid. The other organization that I am indebted to is Iora Ecological Solutions. Iora’s team has made extremely valuable contributions to my research by providing feedback, assistance and facilities to support my research. Thanks to the entire team! I would like to thank all my co-authors from whom I have learned a lot: Aarti Gupta, Ingrid Visseren-Hamakers, Maria Brockhaus, Till Pistorius, Monica Di Gregorio, Esther Turnhout, Martin Herold, Marielos Peña-Claros, Margaret Skutsch, Efrian Muharrom, Tjeerd Wits, Jan Willem den Besten, Constance McDermott, Benjamin Cashore, Eva Lövbrand, and Arturo Balderas Torres.

  • Channing Pollock
    The Library of America • Story of the Week From The American Stage: Writing on Theater from Washington Irving to Tony Kushner , edited by Laurence Senelick (The Library of America, 2010 ), pages 212 –225 . Reprinted from The Footlights: Fore and Aft (1911 ). CHANNING POLLOCK Channing Pollock ( 1880 –1946 ) was the all-purpose Broadway facto - tum. He served his apprenticeship as dramatic critic of The Washing - ton Post in 1898 , before becoming a press agent for the managers William A. Brady and the Shuberts. Without any sense of conflict of interest, he regularly reviewed plays for several publications, including The Smart Set and The Green Book , often biting the hands that had fed him. He also promoted his own works for the stage, including a dramatization of Frank Norris’s The Pit . Pollock contributed sketches to three versions of the Ziegfeld Follies (1911 , 1915 , and 1921 ), compos - ing the English lyrics for “My Man,” Fanny Brice’s rendition of the French torch song “Mon Homme.” His sanctimonious anti-war play The Fool was a popular if not a critical success in 1924 , but his dramatic career was dealt a lethal blow in 1931 when Dorothy Parker wrote of his latest effort: “ The House Beautiful is the play lousy.” Pollock’s am - ple store of stage lore is illustrated in his essay “Stage Struck,” from his collection The Footlights Fore and Aft (1911 ), which indicates just how popular the theatre as a profession and how widespread the con - cept of “stardom” had become since the days of Anna Cora Mowatt. Stage Struck Being a diagnosis of the disease, and a description of its symptoms, which has the rare medical merit of attempting a cure at the same time.

  • Mawsynram Declaration
    Case Study on Mawsynram Declaration Written by KM Unit, East Khasi Hills District Project Management Unit, Community Led Landscape Management Project (CLLMP) TABLE OF CONTENTS Abstract ……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………3 The Mawsynram Declaration ……………………………………………………………..……………………………………………4 Outomce/Discussion……………………………………………….………………………………………………………………..…..5-7 Future…………………..…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………..8 2 Abstract Mawsynram is a village located on the southern hillocks of East Khasi Hills district in the state of Meghalaya, North East of India. Located at a distance of 65 kilometers from state capital, Shillong, Mawsynram is famed to have the highest average rainfall on Earth. Perched atop a ridge, the village receives an average of 467 inches of rain per year (as per Meteorological sources). The heavy rainfall is attributed to air currents sweeping over the steaming floodplains of Bangladesh, gathering moisture as they move north. When the resulting clouds hit the steep hills of Meghalaya they are percolated or squeezed through the narrowed gap in the atmosphere and compressed to the stage they can no longer hold their moisture, causing the near constant rain the village is famous for. The people in and around Mawsynram are dependent on agriculture for their livelihood. In conjunction the Central Government’s MGNREGA is also working and has greatly aided in creating durable assets and providing an employment avenue for the people in this region. In spite of the village’s status as the wettest place on earth, it ironically suffers water shortages especially in the winter months. This can be attributed to a number of causes most notably the lack of infrastructures related to water conservation and retention as well as severe deforestation in some parts of the region.
