Not by Rent Alone: Analysing the Pro-Poor Functions of Small-Scale Fisheries in Developing Countries (2010, unknown): “It has long been recognised that resource-poor people often rely more heavily on common pool resources than better-off households (Jodha, 1992; Beck and Nesmith, 2001).”
Resource degradation, marginalization, and poverty in small-scale fisheries: threats to social-ecological resilience in India and Brazil (2014, background): “…social well-being (White and Ellison 2007, McGregor 2008, Bavinck 2009, Coulthard 2009, Trimble and Johnson 2013, Weeratunge et al. 2013) and field-based, bottom-up and participatory tools to deal with social exclusion (Narayan et al. 2000a, 2000b, Beck and Nesmith 2001, Laderchi et al. 2003).”
Poverty, property rights and collective action: understanding the distributive aspects of common property resource management (2005, background): “Mixed results have been observed on the potential of CPR systems to have a positive impact on the livelihood of the very poor and marginalized sections of communities (Campbell et al., 2001; Beck and Nesmith, 2001).”
Household characteristics and forest dependency: evidence from common property forest management in Nepal (2004, background): “However, formal systems of management depend on membership of emergent institutions and therefore, are less inclusive than earlier structures (Beck and Nesmith, 2001).”
Links between the Local Trade in Natural Products, Livelihoods and Poverty Alleviation in a Semi-arid Region of South Africa (2008, background): “…and Townson, 1998], [Marshall and Newton, 2003], [Marshall et al., 2006], [Narendran et al., 2001] and [Ndoye et al., 1997]), and are particularly crucial for the most marginalized and vulnerable segments of society ([Beck and Nesmith, 2001], [Cavendish, 2000] and [Reddy and Chakravarty, 1999]).”
From Subsistence to Safety Nets and Cash Income: Exploring the Diverse Values of Non-timber Forest Products for Livelihoods and Poverty Alleviation (2011, background): “These low barriers to entry combined with the fact that, in many instances, access rights are held in common and so tenureship may not be claimed by more powerful individuals and groups (Beck and Nesmith 2001), means that this activity provides an important option for poor and marginalised household”
Increasing the contribution of small-scale fisheries to poverty alleviation and food security (2007, background): “Beck and Nesmith (2001), for instance, provide evidence of the importance of CPRs such as forests, rangeland, bushland, fallow fields, inland waterways, wetlands and seasonal ponds for the poor in India and Africa.”
Poverty and resource dependence in rural India (2008, background): “See Cavendish (1999a) for a discussion of this particular procedure. availability obtained from remote-sensing images.”
