International Community Psychology: History and Theories

2007 y.
Publisher: Springer
Description: Community psychology (CP) has a rich history and presence internationally that many people may not be aware of. Today`s increasingly global environment encourages reviewing the world-wide goals and practices of CP. The desire to promote collective well-being clearly transcends geographical boundaries. The goal of developing a global perspective and discourse between countries has been delayed by the lack of a single, accessible source for information. This book provides the first in-depth guide to global community psychology research and practice, history and development, theories and innovations, presented in one field-defining volume. Included are contributions from countries with long histories of oppression, social movements, and political turmoil, long-time democracies and former dictatorships. Fully-formed CP establishments compare with fledgling ventures into the field. The contributors document the complex relationships between CP and ideological currents, other strands… [detailed...]

International Competition Policy

2006 y.
Publisher: Edward Elgar Publishing
Description: The opening up of world markets, rapid growth of trade and foreign direct investment create manifold problems for competition policy. Thus, international mergers may have adverse effects on many countries, international cartels may carve up world markets and dominant firms may seek to maintain their global position by exclusionary conduct. These problems have been recognized for more than half a century and some attempts have been made internationally to address them, so far with limited success. This progressive new book seeks to explore the problems and concerns that globalization has created for competition policy. The book begins by setting out the principles of competition and trade policies, and then goes on to address the impact of market globalization on what are usually thought of as traditional antitrust concerns. These include the analysis of the difficulties arising from collusion and other restrictive practices, government sponsored `voluntary co-operation`,… [detailed...]

International Competitiveness in Africa: Policy Implications in the Sub-Saharan Region (Advanced Studies in Theoretical and Applied Econometrics)

2007 y.
Publisher: —
Description: The effects of international trade and foreign direct investment on developing economies have always been controversial. With the unstoppable spread of globalization and the supremacy of `open` policies over `closed` ones, the debate between `participating` and `not participating` in the world economy has been superseded by discussions on the best policy measures for expanding participation and enhancing the accrued welfare gains. Policies to strengthen international competitiveness are almost unanimously considered important means towards those ends. This book examines two policies frequently used to enhance international competitiveness in Sub-Saharan African economies: exchange rate policy and productivity-related policy. [detailed...]

Description: Using India as a case study, this well-written, concise book covers everything one needs to know to understand how a country becomes internationally competitive.

International Copyright and Neighbouring Rights: The Berne Convention and Beyond 2 Volume Set

2006 y.
Publisher: Oxford University Press
Description: This commentary deals with the history and development of the major international agreements affecting copyright and related rights, including the Berne Convention for the Protection of Literary and Artistic Works 1886-1970, the Rome Convention for the Protection of Performers, Phonogram Producers and Broadcasting Organisations 1961, the WIPO Copyright and Performances and Phonograms Treaties 1996 and the TRIPS Agreement (so far as it affects copyright and related rights).

Extensive analysis of private international law matters also figures prominently, with two chapters devoted to problems of international jurisdiction and choice of law. [detailed...]

International Democracy and the West: The Role of Governments, Civil Society, and Multinational Business (Oxford Studies in Democratization)

2004 y.
Publisher: —
Description: This book adds to debates over the international dimensions of democratic change by studying the policies and actions of three sets of Western actors: namely, governments, multinational companies, and international NGOs. This actor-based triangular approach responds to observations that the strategic, economic, and social aspects of international democracy have rarely been studied in a combined, holistic fashion. During the 1990s, Western governments, multinational companies, and civil society organizations all came to engage more notably in debates over democratic trends. But were they genuine when they professed a concern with democracy in developing countries? Which of these dynamics - governmental, commercial, or social - was the most influential in propelling efforts to encourage democratization and which helped explain the limits of democracy`s international reach? Did political, economic, and social actors form a broad network of international democratic momentum, or did their… [detailed...]

Description: During the past fifty years, colonial empires around the world have collapsed and vast areas that were once known as `colonies` have become known as `less developed countries` or `the third world.` The idea of developmentand the relationship it implies between industrialized, affluent nations and poor, emerging nationshas become the key to a new conceptual framework. Development has also become a vast industry, involving billions of dollars and a worldwide community of experts. These essayswritten by scholars in many fields examine the production, transmission, and implementation of ideas about development within historical, political, and intellectual contexts, emphasizing the changing meanings of development over the past fifty years. The concept of development has come under attack in recent years both from those who see development as the imperialism of knowledge, imposing on the world a modernity that it does not necessarily want, and those who see … [detailed...]
