    Cambodia

    Cambodia has recently demonstrated one of the highest rates of deforestation in the world. While scholars have long explored the drivers of tropical forest loss, the case of Cambodia offers particular insights into the role of the state where transnational governance and regional integration are increasingly the norm. Given the significant role logging rents play in Cambodia’s post-conflict state formation, this article explores the contemporary regime and its ongoing codependent relationship with forested land.

    Cambodia, Philippines

    The study explores the relationship between decentralization and conflict, comparing two case studies in Cambodia and the Philippines. It addresses to what degree and in what ways decentralization influences conflicts that are related to natural resources management (NRM), especially where local institutions are often unrepresentative of, and unaccountable to local communities. In developing countries, the research indicates that sufficient time is an essential component for bringing about genuine and effective local governance, as well as being a means for averting conflict.

The report, Hostile Takeover, sheds light on a huge network of secret deal-making and corruption that has underpinned Hun Sen’s 30-year dictatorial reign of murder, torture and the imprisonment of his political opponents.

    Cambodia's growth over 1998-2008
    has been remarkable (almost 10 percent per annum for a
    decade). This paper applies a "growth diagnostic"
    approach to understand how this happened and how it can be
    sustained. Past growth has been driven by the coincidence of
    a set of historical and geographic factors (including
    opportunistic policy responses), together with the use of
    natural assets (although in a non sustainable way) and the

    Asia s most open economies, especially in the services
    sector. Cambodia s impressive economic growth owes much of
