This study investigates the micro-determinants of land use change using community, household and plot histories, an ethnographic method that constructs panel data from systematic oral recalls. A 20-year historical timeline (1975-1995) is constructed for the village of La Lima in central Honduras, based on a random sample of 97 plots. Changes in land use are examined using transition analysis and multinomial logit analysis.
This paper reviews hypotheses about the impacts of rural population growth on agriculture and natural resource management in developing countries and the implications for productivity, poverty, and natural resource conditions. Impacts on household and collective decisions are considered, and it is argued that population growth is more likely to have negative impacts when there is no collective responses than when population growth induces infrastructure development, collective action, institutional or organizational development.
Based on a survey of 48 communities in central Honduras, this paper identifies the major pathways of development that have been occurring in central Honduras since the mid-1970s, their causes and implications for agricultural productivity, natural resource sustainability, and poverty.

En esta tesis se investiga la presencia de valores que hace el oso de anteojos (Tremarctus ornatus F. Culvier 1825) y al maíz (Zea maíz L.) inconmensurables, razones por las cuales no se podría instaurar un sistema de compensación monetaria en pago por aceptar las pérdidas de maíz a cambio de que no se mate al animal. El área de investigación comprende parte de la zona de amortiguamiento de la Reserva Ecológica Antisana, específicamente entre los pueblos Baeza y Cosanga que se encuentran al este del Volcán Antisana, entrada al Oriente ecuatoriano.
Esta tese examina o tema da recuperação de mais-valias fundiárias urbanas, situando-o como campo de investigação multidisciplinar e mapeando seu entendimento no contexto latinoamericano. O trabalho identifica relações entre o diagnóstico da debilidade na implementação de instrumentos de política urbana associados ao tema na América Latina e o das ambiguidades em sua interpretação, investigando a existência de um hiato entre o reconhecimento abstrato do tema e sua apropriação concreta na região.
