China's CO2 regional synergistic emission reduction: Killing two birds with one stone? / Wang, Xiaojun   Journal Article
Wang, Xiaojun Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract This study takes the CO2 emissions from the energy consumption of 30 provinces in China as the research object. We predict and analyze a significant phenomenon involving the total CO2 emissions of inter-provincial energy consumption from the east to the west. On the basis of three CO2 emission reduction scenarios (Scenario 1: Baseline Scenario (10%–20% emission reduction target), Scenario 2: 2 °C Path Scenario (50%–60% emission reduction target), and Scenario 3: 1.5 °C Path Scenario (75%–85% emission reduction target)), a regional synergy scenario is proposed for the first time in this article. That is, the government develops multi-field CO2 regional synergistic emission reduction (RSER) based on regional industry coordination by rationally guiding the implementation of the “enclave economy.” Moreover, we compare and analyze the different carbon emissions of the multiple “Carbon Neutrality” targets in 2050 under multiple scenarios. The results reveal that compared with scenario 1, scenario 2, and scenario 3, the regional synergy scenario can achieve 18.4%, 58.4%, and 83.4% reduction, respectively, compared with the current situation, which is significantly higher than the effect of the emission reduction targets set based on the average threshold values (15%, 55%, and 80%) of the above scenarios.

We do our bit in our own space: DAL Group and the development of a curiously Sudanese enclave economy / Mann, Laura   Journal Article
Mann, Laura Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2013.
Summary/Abstract The family firm, DAL Group, is Sudan's largest and most diversified company. Its growth has concentrated on consumer goods, rather than on state concessions or exports. It has developed its own training programmes, construction units, transportation networks and market research departments to manage the unstable environment outside its business walls. This paper focuses on the company's recruitment policies, demonstrating how the firm relies on its own internal family structure and a transnational network of Sudanese professionals in order to grow and prosper. Such self-reliance contributes to growing political frustration among young unemployed people. Graduates from 'marginal' areas rely more heavily on public advertisements and on information obtained from state bodies, not the private channels of wasta (personal intermediation) that cut through contemporary business. The paper concludes by comparing DAL with similar business networks in Ethiopia and Rwanda, arguing that DAL is a unique and interesting form of 'enclave economy', shaped by a displaced transnational elite operating in a hostile political environment. Within the wider political context of Sudan, there is a limit to what similar businesses can achieve.
