An Economic History of Twentieth-Century Latin America: Industrialization and the State in Latin America : The Postwar Years (St. Antony`s Series (Palgrave (Firm)).)

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: In the 1990s, `protection,` `import substitution,` and `intervention` have become dirty words, part of the `leyenda negra` of Latin America development in the post-war period. This book attempts a fresh look at the controversial years between the end of the Second World War and the point when, at varying dates in different countries, a discontinuity occurs in which the post-war `style of development` ceased to play a central role in the economic evolution of the region. The analysis is based on seven case studies covering 11countries. [detailed...]

George A. Akerlof
An Economic Theorist`s Book of Tales

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: These essays explore what happens when a skilful economist makes unconventional assumptions. Economic theory has traditionally relied upon a tacit and `classical` set of assumptions that have gradually acquired a life of their own in defining how economists write and how they justify economic models. Similarly, these assumptions have acquired an autonomous character: they guide the way economists think about the world. In consequence, consideration of alternative assumptions has become taboo. These essays are substantively and stylistically novel because they break these taboos and bring new assumptions into economic theory. The papers apply this adventurous approach to a wide range of issues - from insurance markets and trade in underdeveloped countriesto unemployment and discrimination. Some of the essays derive the implications for economic markets of costly asymmetric information. Others explore the findings of other social sciences such as anthropology, psychology, and sociology.

An Economy of Abundant Beauty: Fortune Magazine and Depression America

2004 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book Description`We have made a breakthrough from an economy of scarcity to an economy of abundance,` Henry Luce noted more than twenty years after founding Fortune magazine. `Can we make the breakthrough from an economy of abundance to an economy of abundant beauty?` Michael Augspurger?s attractively illustrated book examines Fortune?s surprising role in American struggles over artistic and cultural authority during the Depression and the Second World War. The elegantly designed magazine, launched in the first months of the Depression, was not narrowly concerned with moneymaking and finance. Indeed the magazine displayed a remarkable interest in art, national culture, and the `literature of business.` Fortune?s investment in art was not simply an attempt to increase the social status of business. It was, Augspurger argues, an expression of the editors? sincere desire to develop a moral capitalism. Optimistically believing that the United States had entered… [detailed...]

An Economy of Colour : Visual Culture and the North Atlantic World, 1660-1830 (Critical Perspectives in Art History)

2003 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book Description The contributors to this volume analyze visual culture in the context of British and French Colonial activity in the North Atlantic from 1660-1830. It is a response to a noticeable omission in current art history and cultural studies, which have largely ignored the diverse and important body of visual imagery relating to colonialism, Atlantic slavery and the development of racial ideology. This fascinating collection demonstrates that the visualization of individuals, communities, social types, fictive characters, artefacts and landscapes, played a highly significant role in both the European representation and self-representation of the peoples and places of the Atlantic colonial world. Consequently, it reasserts the primacy of visual culture as an active participant in forming this complex and fluid `imagined community.` [detailed...]

An Elephant Named Sustainability

Publisher: —
Description: An Elephant Named Sustainability is written for the global citizen. In a very broad manner, it outlines the various components of sustainability and the interlinkages between these components. This is important so that the global citizen does not see sustainable living as recycling cans of beverages. The global citizen needs to be aware of various conflicts that are central to sustainability, how he/she is at the center of it and how that affects his/her life. The book aims to strengthen such a holistic awareness so that the citizen does not spend an hour a day recycling cans and 23 hours living unsustainably. It also provides a broad framework that can help the citizen understand and critique policies being formulated. Without making the theories too abstruse, this book integrates complex interlinkages and connects them to real situations. [detailed...]

An Enemy of the People

1999 y.
Publisher: Dover Publications
Description: Widely regarded as one of the foremost dramatists of the 19th century, Norwegian playwright Henrik Ibsen brought the social problems and ideas of his day to center stage. Creating realistic plays of psychological conflict that emphasized character over cunning plots, he frequently inspired critical objections because his dramas deemed the individual more important than the group. In this powerful work, Ibsen places his main character, Dr. Thomas Stockmann, in the role of an enlightened and persecuted minority of one confronting an ignorant, powerful majority. When the physician learns that the famous and financially successful baths in his hometown are contaminated, he insists they be shut down for expensive repairs. For his honesty, he is persecuted, ridiculed, and declared an `enemy of the people` by the townspeople, including some who had been his closest allies. First staged in 1883, `An Enemy of the People` remains one of the most frequently performed plays by a… [detailed...]
