Abstract: Our research aims to combine qualities from both of the ecosystem services (ES) and territorial development research communities. We will develop and test an operational research framework based on a new concept, the ES basket, and demonstrate the relevance of developing a non-monetary valuation approach based on multi-criteria indicators and perceptions. Our scope is to better characterise the potential valuation of agricultural ES through emblematic products. The ES basket aims at facilitating the recognition of ES through these products, and consequently collective action and the appropriation of changes towards better sustainability in agriculture. This methodological framework has been applied to a rural territory, the Karaburun Peninsula (Turkey), where ES baskets have been developed through the farming of two emblematic products, olives and narcissus. Our results may help identify the perspectives of territorial development and the supporting policies to be implemented for the valuation of ES baskets.

Abstract: This paper reports a systematic review of studies on pro-environmental behaviour anchored on the value-belief-norm theory of environmentalism extracted from the Scopus database and published between 1999 and the present. It aimed at determining the continuum of pro-environmental behaviour and study locale by examining context-themes of the same in the hope of determining research opportunities and future research directions. Results revealed that although the trend is increasing, the number of studies related to it still needs to grow. Among the categories of the context-themes that emerged include: 1) energy conservation; 2) green/sustainable consumption; 3) waste management; 4) green/sustainable tourism; 5) climate change mitigation and adaptation; 6) biodiversity conservation; 7) policy support; 8) pro-environmental behaviour in workplaces; 9) other minor emergent themes. Most locales were from western and highly developed countries. The later part of the paper reflects environmentalism in the context of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.

Abstract: This article aims to investigate the effects of democracy and natural resources on foreign direct investment (FDI) in African countries rich in natural resources. To this end, an econometric model was estimated using three methods, namely, fixed effects with sample heteroscedasticity correction, the instrumental variables method and the general method of moments, on a panel of 22 countries over the period 2000-2017. On the one hand, the results show that democracy has a positive effect on FDI. On the other hand, the analysis showed that natural resources do not help to attract FDI. Our findings suggest that concrete actions are needed in terms of strengthening and improving governance and democratic institutions to better attract FDI in African countries rich in natural resources.
