    Today, 370 million people live in cities in earthquake prone areas and 310 million in cities with a high probability of tropical cyclones. By 2050 these numbers are likely to more than double, leading to a greater concentration of hazard risk in many of the world's cities. The authors discuss what sets hazard risk in urban areas apart, summarize estimates of valuation of hazard risk, and discuss implications for individual mitigation and public policy.

    Case studies of social-ecological landscapes that consider local, spatially explicit land cover changes are necessary for the development of generalised knowledge on deforestation. This study focussed on two indigenous territories of eastern Panama that share the same settlement history, size and location but are perceived by local dwellers to differ in terms of land cover.

    Much of the research on urbanization has focused on how rural populations move to cities for work opportunities. This paper takes a different perspective on the relations between rural populations and urbanization. The livelihoods of rural dwellers on the outskirts of the city of Bogotá in Colombia are increasingly affected by the expansion of urban activities and infrastructure. Therefore, urbanization takes place in the areas of residence of the rural populations; these people do not migrate to the city but, rather, the city migrates to them.

    Participatory water governance has become highly influential around the world as a means for managing water resources. Scholars and practitioners advocate for the inclusion of previously marginalized communities in water resources management through the devolution of power, responsibility, and participation. Where community institutions are weak or missing, experts recommend strengthening or re-building them to enable inclusive decision-making over water resources.

    Economists argue that land rent taxation is an ideal form of taxation as it causes no deadweight losses. Nevertheless, pure land rent taxation is rarely applied. This paper revisits the case of land taxation for developing countries. We first provide an up-to-date review on land taxation in development countries, including feasibility and implementation challenges. We then simulate land tax reforms for Rwanda, Peru, Nicaragua and Indonesia, based on household surveys.

    Este artículo estudia la redefinición de los derechos de propiedad de los bienes civiles, específicamente los ejidos, desde una perspectiva comparada. Se analiza el concepto y su uso. Se explica la legislación ejidal bonaerense y se describe la implementación de las leyes desamortizadoras en España, México y Buenos Aires para tratar problemas comunes. Por último, se confrontan los objetivos de la legislación con la forma en que se aplicó en Buenos Aires y en un caso en particular, el ejido de Mercedes.

    El trabajo hace una revisión historiográfica que problematiza la hipótesis de que la desamortización despojó de sus tierras o pauperizó a los pueblos de indios en México. Ello permite hilar otros cuestionamientos sobre actores políticos, sociales e institucionales, que no han recibido mucha atención de los historiadores respecto de los efectos de la Ley de 1856, como los ayuntamientos, los abogados y tinterillos.
