The paper aims to identify and analyze what types of governance challenges for sustainable regional development in the context of globalization are more frequently found in scholarship regarding Latin America. In order to do so, we carried out a systematic review of scholarly works discussing regional sustainability issues across the region. Analytically, it provides a heuristic multidimensional framework for organizing and typifying the most frequent sustainable regional development governance challenges under study, offering a nuanced and interrelated account of economic, environmental, political, and socio-spatial scientific discussions. According to our findings, scholarship on Latin America shows a bricolage-like scenery where political atomization linked to economic factionalism and fragmentation stand out as frequently analyzed situations. Another frequent topic relates to discussions about political endeavors linked to environmental concerns, connecting incidence strategies with collective environmental conservation approaches.

Abstract The National Border Strip (BS) geographically comprises the region of the Brazilian territorial boundary and, historically, is recognized by isolation, socio-economic and environmental vulnerabilities. In order to overcome these difficulties and promote sustainable regional development, a set of public policies was implemented, with emphasis on restructuring the Border Area Development Plan (PDFF) in 2005. In face of the investments made and the scarcity of information about this territory, this paper identified the main policies implemented in the BS based on literature review and documentary research. Also, thematic maps showed the effects of these policies on the changeovers of education, health, employment and income indicators, all calculated for the years 2005 and 2011. The results show that the policies emphasized development in the social and economic spheres, with less emphasis on the environmental context. Improvements in living conditions were identified in most municipalities, especially in education and health.

Sustainability Challenges

Higher education institutions (HEIs) in Albania and Kosovo have invested considerable efforts to tackle present regional sustainability challenges on a research-based and strategic level. This happened through their traditional role as a provider of research and education. Additional activities fostering HEIs as a driver for sustainable regional development and innovation have been initiated as part of their third mission. However, customized education approaches were missing in order to fulfill specific regional demands of different research and learning projects in collaboration with regional actors. This paper explores the recently finished project “Connecting Science-Society Collaboration for Sustainability Innovation—ConSus” which focuses on the efforts of HEIs in Albania and Kosovo to tackle present regional sustainability challenges in both countries. An analytical framework regarding collaborative learning opportunities towards sustainable regional development and innovation has been drafted based on five key elements (capacities of HEIs in regional development, planning, learning and implementation theory, and action research). This framework has been applied to analyze the learning activities of the ConSus project. As a main finding, customized education approaches in the contexts of sustainable development (SD) and collaboration of scientific and regional actors are important elements to cope comprehensively with real-world problems.

Corredores Ecológicos são áreas que unem os fragmentos florestais ou unidades de conservação separadas por interferência humana. Apoiados por uma base teórica da ecologia da paisagem, os corredores ecológicos são considerados uma unidade de planejamento e ordenamento territorial.  Para melhor compreender este conceito, este artigo tem como objetivo realizar uma revisão de literatura sobre os aportes teóricos e conceituais dos Corredores Ecológicos em relação à conservação ambiental. Como metodologia, utilizou-se de levantamento e análise bibliográfica de artigos de revistas nacionais e internacionais que tratavam sobre o tema. Os resultados indicam que os Corredores Ecológicos são fundamentais para o desenvolvimento regional sustentável, pois apenas a existência deles permite que haja políticas públicas associadas à conservação da biodiversidade.Palavras-chave: Conservação biológica; Gestão Integrada, Corredores Ecológicos. ABSTRACTEcological corridors are areas that link forest fragments or protected areas separated by human interference. Supported by a theoretical basis of landscape ecology, ecological corridors are considered a unit of planning and territorial ordering. To better understand this concept, this article aims to carry out a literature review on the theoretical and conceptual contributions of Ecological Corridors in relation to environmental conservation. As methodology, we used a survey and bibliographic analysis of articles from national and international journals that dealt with the topic. The results indicate that Ecological Corridors are fundamental for sustainable regional development, since only their existence allows public policies associated with the conservation of biodiversity.Keywords: Biological conservation; Integrated Management, Ecological Corridors. RESUMENLos corredores ecológicos son áreas que unen fragmentos de bosque o unidades de conservación separadas por interferencia humana.

The Relationship

The rise of e-commerce has brought considerable changes to the relationship between firms and consumers, especially within international business. Hence, understanding the use of such means for entering foreign markets has become critical for companies. However, the research on this issue is new and so it is important to evaluate what has been studied in the past. In this study, we conduct a systematic review of e-commerce and internationalisation studies to explicate how firms use e-commerce to enter new markets and to export. The studies are classified by theories and methods used in the literature. Moreover, we draw upon the internationalisation decision process (antecedents-modalities-consequences) to propose an integrative framework for understanding the role of e-commerce in internationalisation

Reticular erythematous mucinosis (REM) was first described 50 years ago, but only around 100 case reports in English have been published. Its relation with other inflammatory skin disorders is still being debated. We report a case of REM, including the clinical and histopathological findings. Also, a systematic review of 94 English-language reported cases is provided. The described criteria for clinical and histopathological diagnosis are highlighted in order to REM can be confidently diagnosed.
