Policy Spandrels: How Design Decisions Can Open Up Spaces for Unintended Policy Change

European Policy Analysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article introduces the concept of policy spandrels to make sense of public policies producing second‐order effects that are unintentional from the perspective of policy design and yet are fraught with consequences. By analogy with architectural spandrels—leftover spaces that can be used for unforeseen purposes—policy change can be enabled

SOIL EROSION

Madras Agricultural Journal, 1934
Soil erosion is the depletion of soil from cultivated and cultivable land by various natural agencies. Unchecked erosion leads to the deterioration of the soil and the consequent impoverish- ment of the cultivator. This important subject is now engaging the earnest attention of all agricultural countries throughout the world.
