Development of the Industrial U.S.: Biographies Edition 1.

2005 y.
Publisher: —
Description: In the second half of the 19th century, America transformed itself into an industrial power, ready to assume a dominant position on the world scene in the 20th century.

Development with Identity: Community, Culture and Sustainability in the Andes (Cabi Publishing)

2006 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Throughout Latin America, indigenous peoples are demanding that development must address local priorities, including ethnic identity. Simultaneously, sustainability scientists need to conduct place-based research on the interaction between environment and society which will have global relevance. This book reports on a six-year interdisciplinary research project on natural resource management in Cotacachi, Ecuador, where scientists and indigenous groups learn to seek common ground. The book discusses how local people and the environment have engaged each other over time to create contemporary Andrean landscapes. It also explores human-environment interaction in relation to biodiversity, soils and water, and equitable development. [detailed...]

Development, Crisis, and Class Struggle: Learning from Japan and East Asia

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: East Asia has long been the focus of development debates, first as a success story and now as a region in crisis. Nonetheless, there has been little if any serious discussion of what the region’s experience tells us about capitalism and the prospects for non-capitalist development alternatives more centered on the needs of workers and communities. Development, Crisis and Class Struggle fills this gap. [detailed...]

Development, Democracy, and Welfare States: Latin America, East Asia, and Eastern Europe

2008 y.
Publisher: —
Description: This is the first book to compare the distinctive welfare states of Latin America, East Asia, and Eastern Europe. Stephan Haggard and Robert Kaufman trace the historical origins of social policy in these regions to crucial political changes in the mid-twentieth century, and show how the legacies of these early choices are influencing welfare reform following democratization and globalization. After World War II, communist regimes in Eastern Europe adopted wide-ranging socialist entitlements while conservative dictatorships in East Asia sharply limited social security but invested in education. In Latin America, where welfare systems were instituted earlier, unequal social-security systems favored formal sector workers and the middle class. Haggard and Kaufman compare the different welfare paths of the countries in these regions following democratization and the move toward more open economies. Although these transformations generated pressure to reform existing welfare systems,… [detailed...]

Development, Divinity, and Dharma: The Role of Religion in Development Institutions and Microfinance

2008 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Faith-based institutions are getting involved in economic development programs, including microfinance, and many foreign donors are looking to religious organizations for new ways to reach the poorest people. This book considers the work of a number of these, of different faiths, and asks what is special about them. Do religious links make these organizations more or less effective? Should spiritual development and economic upliftment be kept apart?Development, Divinity and Dharma explores these questions by examining a number of Hindu, Christian and Muslim institutions in India and in Pakistan. Its main focus is the Shri Kshetra Dharmasthala Rural Development program, which though little known outside south India, has changed the lives of almost half a million people, including Hindus, Muslims and Christians, through social and economic development programs which are motivated by religious faith.

Paul Krugman
Development, Geography, and Economic Theory (Ohlin Lectures)

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: `This is a book that should be read by all economists.` -- Roger E. Backhouse, The Economic Journal `A stimulating essay by one of the world`s most thoughtful and innovative economists.` -- Paul Ormerod, The Times Higher Education Supplement Why do certain ideas gain currency in economics while others fall by the wayside? Paul Krugman argues that the unwillingness of mainstream economists to think about what they could not formalize led them to ignore ideas that turn out, in retrospect, to have been very good ones. Krugman examines the course of economic geography and development theory to shed light on the nature of economic inquiry. He traces how development theory lost its initial influence after it became clear that many of the theory`s main insights could not be clearly modeled, and concludes with a commentary on areas where further inquiry looks most promising. The Ohlin Lectures [detailed...]

Development, State and Society: Theories and Practice in Contemporary Africa

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: Development, State and Society is a nuanced overview of economic thought, political formations and social issues applied to Africa. In this thought-provoking book, Seyoum Hameso argues that the promise of development was taken to heart by millionsthroughout the world. After half a century of “development,” it remains unfulfilled for millions in Africa. The swollen bodies of children, emaciated faces of women, a relentless scourge of conflicts that have become a way of life, all point to a continent ill at ease with itself and less at ease with its external engagement. All this indicate that there is a pressing need for the redefinition of the existing approaches and practices with a view to help chart alternative development. The bookcontains two parts. The first part presents theoretical and historical aspects of development problematic. The second part deals with practical issues on economic performance, political governance, the role of culture and Africa’s… [detailed...]

Developmental Assignments: Creating Learning Experiences without Changing Jobs (Dutch)

2008 y.
Publisher: —
Description: This book is modeled after `Eighty-Eight Assignments for Development in Place,` one of the Center for Creative Leadership`s most popular publications. In the years since that report was published, we have learned more about development in place--from research, from working with managers and organizations that are making use of developmental assignments, and from our colleagues in the field. We believe it is time once again to consolidate our knowledge into one tool to help leaders add developmental assignments to their own jobs and help others do the same. The tables inside this book are full of assignments. You`ll also find cross-references to CCL`s assessment tools: 360 by Design, Executive Dimensions, Benchmarks, Prospector, and Skillscope. If you want to target the development of specific competencies as a result of receiving feedback from any of these, the cross-references will direct you to appropriate assignments. [detailed...]

Developments and Applications of Block Toeplitz Iterative Solvers (Combinatorics and Computer Science)

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: This volume contains the latest developments in the use of iterative methods to block Toeplitz systems. These systems arise in a variety of applications in mathematics, scientific computing, and engineering, such as image processing, numerical differential equations and integral equations, time series analysis, and control theory. Iterative methods such as Krylov subspace methods and multigrid methods are proposed to solve block Toeplitz systems. One of the main advantages of these iterative methods is that the operation cost of solving a large class of mn ? mn block Toeplitz systems only requires O (mn log mn) operations. This book is the first book on Toeplitz iterative solvers and it includes recent research results. The author belongs to one of the most important groups in the field of structured matrix computation. The book is accessible to readers with a working knowledge of numerical linear algebra. It should be of interest to everyone who deals with block Toeplitz… [detailed...]
