This paper examines the different mechanisms used by multinational corporations (MNCs) in Nigeria seeking to make long-term
social investments by meeting the critical challenge of improving water provision. Community enterprise – an increasingly
common form of social enterprise, which pursues charitable objectives through business activities – may be the most effective
mechanism for building local capacity in a sustainable and accountable way. Traditionally, social investments by MNCs have
involved either donations to a charity, which then assumes responsibility for delivering social outcomes, or direct management
of social investment in-house. These approaches have been criticized, however, for their limited contribution to local capacity
building, their focus on short-term outcomes, and the restricted role that they afford to communities. Partnering with community
enterprise, provided there is sufficient local capacity to support it, is the most effective mode of governance through which
MNCs can manage social investments in developing countries.

Fish demand patterns in nine Asian countries were investigated using a multistage budgeting framework allowing a disaggregated approach to analysing fish consumption. This paper highlights the heterogeneity of fisheries products in terms of species, sources and cultural responses of consumers, factors that are important in fish demand under the Asian setting. Specifically, fish demand by income groups were compared to determine how the low‐ and high‐income households respond to price and income changes. Results showed that the estimated price and income elasticities of all fish types included in the study were relatively more elastic among the poorer households. 相似文献
