The Summer 2010 issue of Europe's World looks at a number of policy areas where that lesson must be borne firmly in mind by today's decisionmakers. The global economic recession has laid bare a range of issues that need to be addressed very promptly before they develop further and become difficulties of a very different magnitude. It has also accentuated long-term trends to which Europe has so far failed to respond.

We feel it's fair to say that few if any publications in the field of international relations and policy debate have grown as fast or widened their scope so remarkably as Europe's World. Our 120,000 readers worldwide are drawn from politics, government, business, the media, universities and NGOs.

The EU case for the Provision of Public Goods from Private Land
 
This paper, published in December 2009, analyses the available evidence on the range of environmental and man-made landscape services that land managers - farmers and foresters) provide. It does not only deal with the actual services delivered, but reviews work regarding the scale of the non-market services which come from our multifunctional land management and assesses the various ways to bring about the delivery of these services.

With a the prospect of the ongoing EU CAP and Budget discussions, the RISE Task Force Report, tries to give several ways and recommendations to ensure that policy measures for delivery of these services are developed. It argues that if the demand for public goods can be effectively created, then private operators will step up to supply.
