Government policies providing financial aid to small and medium scale business enterprises are found everywhere around the globe, including those that is managed by Indonesia, and is allowed under the world trade arrangement managed by the WTO. An important part of this policy is subsidies made available to fishing businesses. Be that as it may, overfishing and the resulting fish stock crisis globally has made the practice of subsidizing marine fishing enterprises suspect in light of marine environment protection. This article discusses the issues of fishing subsidies as practiced in Indonesia in view of the current regime of economic law and the need to develop a sustainable fishing practices.

<p>Sustainable development in developing countries, particularly in Africa, has been of interest among scholars, practitioners and policymakers for decades. There is increased acknowledgment of Indigenous knowledge as an underexploited, yet invaluable source of sustainable development in emerging markets. This paper thus examines the constructs of Africapitalism management philosophy and indigenous knowledge. We examine diverse ways through which Africapitalism can embed indigenous knowledge systems as a key growth driver for sustainable socio-economic development. Finally, we discuss the implications for researchers and policy makers.</p>

Rural Entrepreneurship development set as A challenge in this scenario of globalization. 68.84 % of people live in rural areas of India, according to the 2011 Census. People in rural areas are suffering from unemployment and inadequate infrastructure facilities that can be addressed through rural entrepreneurs' growth. "Rural entrepreneurship can be defined as village-level entrepreneurship such as farming, business and acts as a powerful economic development factor." But these rural entrepreneurs are suffering from a number of problems, such as fear of risk, lack of capital, illiteracy and urban entrepreneurial rivalry. By providing job opportunities to citizens in cities, rural entrepreneurs raise the quality of life and buying power of people. In the sense of rural growth in India, this paper is an effort to explain the problems and challenges of rural entrepreneurship, artisans  and potential suggestions to address the problems.

This chapter focuses on exploring the contributions of indigenous-oriented relational thinking-and-being in terms of implications for the quality of social living and for sustaining relationships with everything in our ecological niche. It offers an account of how we can treat Indigenous Knowledge Systems (IKS) as envisaging socio-economic development differently from economic models of growth which thus far can be said to govern processes of globalization. The chapter attempts to demonstrate that resuscitating IKS is not so much a matter of researchers' documenting and respecting the content of indigenous knowledge that has been created to date. More important is to direct research with the aim of drawing out and revitalizing the styles of knowing and living that can be interpreted as characterizing indigeneity. Examples are provided of how research can be directed with this in mind.

The decades of the 1820's, 1830's and early 1840's form a fascinating period i n the process of American nineteenth-century development. In many ways that era represents a classic case of interdependence between developed and underdeveloped economies through the movements of factors, goods and specie. During these formative years in American development, the United States was predominantly a single primary product exporter, her rate of economic expansion very much a function of the state of the external market for cotton. The flow of capital moves in the classic fashion, from capital-rich Great Britain to capital-scarce America, but varying with relative degrees of expected returns; that is, varying with the relative rate of development between the two countries. But the period from the 1820's to 1840's exhibits another interesting aspect as well: it reveals the first substantial evidence of a long swing in the rate of American economic development.

The Local Fisheries Knowledge Project is an education and outreach project developed by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, National Marine Fisheries Service (NOAA Fisheries) to document and preserve the cultural, environmental, and historical knowledge of fishing communities. Participants interview community members involved in marine fishing and other marine-dependent professions. Currently, it is geared towards students at the high school and university levels. It is place-based, implemented locally by educational institutions and community groups with Agency support.
