Since the 1950s, the development strategy of Paraguay has relied on export-led growth. To accomplish this the government placed great emphasis on price and exchange rate stability, first achieved in the late 1950s. Counting on limited resources, the country attempted to attract foreign investment while its own investment programs were directed primarily toward increasing domestic infrastructure, with road construction as a top priority. The latter opened up the eastern frontier region and provided an alternative outlet to the sea via the Brazilian highway system. Historically, Paraguay has counted on the Paraná River and on Argentinian ports for its access to the Atlantic.

<p><strong>English<br /></strong>The fact that a close relationship exist between farmlands and agricultural activities bring about a consequence that efforts for improving farmers welfare cannot be based only on technological and institutional improvement. The improvement in farmers' access to farmlands will mostly determine the success of increasing the living standard of the rural society as a whole. The problem to be faced at present a however, that farmlands tend to be increasingly limited, due to competition with other uses of lands, whereas people working in the sector of agriculture is steadily, and absolutely increasing, resulting in an increasingly limited average proprietorship and control of land. This unfavourable condition could be attributed to the accumulated improper implementation of the development strategy which was not fully inclined to agriculture, by issuing various acts and regulations that enhance investors in having access to lands, including farmlands and lands under control of rural elders by tradition. Agrarian reform with the target to improve farmers' access to farmlands should be commenced by reforming the aforementioned acts and regulations. This in turn should be accompanied by improving the data base related to the status of lands which is presently in a chaostic condition, due to the multiplicity of institution handling the problems related to land status, which has created the main obstacle in implementing the agrarian reform in Indonesia. A political commitment of the government and legislative institutions is urgently needed for this purpose.</p><p> </p><p><strong>Indonesian<br /></strong>Eratnya keterkaitan lahan dengan kegiatan pertanian menyebabkan upaya perbaikan kesejahteraan petani tidak cukup hanya melalui perbaikan teknologi dan kelembagaan yang terkait dengan proses produksi, perbaikan akses petani terhadap lahan akan banyak menentukan keberhasilan upaya perbaikan kehidupan masyarakat pedesaan secara keseluruhan. Misalnya sekarang, lahan pertanian cenderung makin terbatas karena harus berkompetisi untuk berbagai penggunaan, sementara orang yang bekerja di pertanian secara absolut terus bertambah sehingga menyebabkan rata-rata pemilik dan penguasaan lahan semakin sempit. kondisi ini merupakan akibat dari akumulasi kesalahan di dalam penerapan kebijaksanaan pembangunan yang kurang berpihak pada pertanian, dengan dikeluarkannya sebagai undang-undang dan peraturan yang memudahkan investor untuk mendapatkan lahan, termasuk lahan pertanian dan hak ulayak masyarakat adat. Upaya reformasi agraria, dengan sasaran memperbaiki akses petani terhadap lahan, perlu di awali dengan mereformasi berbagai peraturan/perundangan yang ada. Upaya ini seharusnya dilakukan bersamaan dengan perbaikan terhadap basis data yang berkaitan dengan lahan, karena masih simpang-siurnya data dan banyaknya instansi yang menangani persoalan lahan, dan ini merupakan hambatan utama dalam pelaksanaan reformasi agraria di Indonesia. Agar upaya ini dapat terlaksanakan dibutuhkan political comitment dari pemerintah dan pihak legislatif tentang pentingnya reformasi agraria ini.</p>

The main causes of the faster growth in China's eastern coastal area, and thus for the rise in income disparity between eastern and western regions, are the rapid increases in foreign trade and foreign investment resulting not only from the government's coastal development strategy but also from inherent advantages of the eastern coastal area. Since 1999, the development strategy for western China has focused on the injection of large amounts of capital, but fiscal constraints make this strategy unsustainable. China's government should allow mobility of the labor force across regions to play a bigger role in solving the income disparity problem.

This chapter examines the political economy of the adoption and evolution of Rwanda’s Vision 2020 Umurenge Programme (VUP), concluding that strong government commitment to the VUP was shaped by the characteristics of the political settlement that was established around 2000. For the Rwandan government, the VUP has never been just a social transfer programme, but a key part of the development strategy that aims to promote social stability and the legitimacy of the ruling coalition through rapid socioeconomic development. In particular, the VUP originates in an emerging distributional crisis in the mid-2000s in which rapid economic growth alongside low rates of poverty reduction threatened the government narrative of inclusive development. While donor social protection ideas have also been influential, these are purposely adapted by government with a view to meeting its developmental and political goals.

In this article, the author concludes that the institution of plenipotentiaries of the President in the federal districts is a legal tool of the President of Russia, which was created to facilitate the exercise of his powers in the federal districts, which can and should be applied in the process of monitoring the implementation of the Development Strategy Implementation Plan mineral resource base of Russia until 2035, even despite the fact that authorized representatives in federal districts are not indicated in the text of the Strategy as part of controlling persons. The territorial bodies of the Federal Subsoil Use Agency (Rosnedra), established at the level of federal districts, should be the conductors of this control: the provisions on the establishment of territorial bodies of the Rosnedra at the level of federal districts contain regulatory provisions that allow direct interaction with the Presidential plenipotentiary representatives in federal districts. In addition, Presidential Decree No. 849 of May 13, 2000, which established federal districts and plenipotentiaries, directly indicates the possibility of plenipotentiaries to monitor the implementation of orders of the Government of Russia — the Strategy was approved in the form of a government order.
