Following the collapse of the communist regime in 1989, Bulgaria has undergone dramatic political, economic and social transformations. The transition process of the past two decades was characterized by several reforms to support democratisation of the political system and the functioning of a free-market economy. Since 1992, Switzerland has been active in Bulgaria providing assistance to the transition process, with support to Sustainable Management of Natural Resources (SMNR) starting in 1995. The SMNR Capitalisation of Experiences (CapEx) took place between March and September 2007, in the context of SDC phasing out its programmes in Bulgaria by the end of 2007 due to the country’s accession to the European Union. The CapEx exercise has culminated in the identification of 17 lessons learned. In the view of the CapEx team, many of these lessons are relevant for countries that are in the process of joining the EU, facing similar democratisation challenges as Bulgaria. Overall, the Swiss SMNR projects have been effective entry points to support areas that are crucial to democratic transitions, namely participation in public goods management, decentralisation, human capacity development in research and management, and preparation for EU membership. The specificity of the Swiss support stems from an approach that combines a long-term commitment with a clear thematic focus (forestry, biodiversity conservation and organic agriculture). The multistakeholder approach and diversification of support between local, regional and national levels are also important elements that contributed to make a difference in relation to other donors supporting the Bulgarian transition. At the institutional level, there are a number of challenges where the contribution of SMNR activities was only modest, namely improving the legal framework and creating more transparency and accountability, both of which are time and resource-consuming processes. In addition, the emergence of competent and sustainable non-government organisations (NGOs) is a complex process that requires support to membership based organisations, a challenge that was hardly met in the case of SMNR. Finally, reform of government institutions involved in management of natural resources is difficult to achieve via project support only, as it requires leverage and commitment at the level of policy dialogue. At the programme management level, the CapEx team notes that corruption was not systematically addressed in SMNR projects, indicating that more attention should be given to this issue at the outset of any new project.
How Welfare States Shape the Democratic Public: Policy Feedback, Participation, Voting and Attitudes
Resumo:
This crucial volume significantly advances the study of policy feedbacks. With contributions from many subfields and methodological approaches, it offers both sophisticated theorizing and new empirical examples that show how policies make politics in a variety of ways. Innovative research designs provide more convincing inference than ever. And the normative questions engaged about welfare performance, evaluation, participation, and accountability could not be more important or timely in this era of austerity and discord over the future of welfare states.’

La gestion durable des ressources naturelles est actuellement perçue comme une condition essentielle pour le développement durable, et surtout pour les pays en développement comme Madagascar. Face à la dégradation continue des ressources naturelles et surtout forestières, diverses stratégies sont adoptées par l’état malgache, dont l’extension des aires protégées qui veut allier la protection intégrale de certaines parties des ressources, et la satisfaction des besoins des populations riveraines. Le Code des Aires Protégées constitue un outil destiné à la gestion de ces aires de conservation. Toutefois, l’élaboration du plan d’aménagement ne prend pas souvent en compte des paramètres tels que l’augmentation de la population et les besoins qui s’en suivent, ou bien la participation de ces populations au processus d’élaboration et de mise en oeuvre du plan. Le défi est d’arriver à intégrer ces deux logiques de protection et de satisfaction des besoins de la population locale en réalisant des plans d’aménagement et de gestion concertés. Le cas du fokontany Ambohibary Sokafana dans le Corridor Anjozorobe Angavo est étudié pour identifier les paramètres à considérer si on veut atteindre cet objectif : paramètres écologiques et socio-économiques influençant la gestion des ressources forestières, critères permettant de définir la participation des acteurs dans cette gestion. Une revue des ouvrages spécifiques traitant du sujet ainsi que des observations et rencontres avec les divers acteurs sur terrain ont été menées afin de pouvoir identifier ces divers paramètres. Les analyses ont permis d’avancer deux scénarii qui traduisent l’intégration de la protection des forêts et la satisfaction des besoins en bois et en produits vivriers des populations riveraines, en tenant compte des motivations de ces dernières à participer au processus d’appropriation du plan d’aménagement et de gestion.
