An Input-Output Analysis of European Integration

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: Hardbound. Trade theories predict and explain the consequences of economic integration. Generally, they show that freer international trade leads to specialisation, technological convergence and faster economic growth. This study compares the conclusionsof the trade theories with empirical observations of economic changes in the European Union. These empirical analyses show that the main conclusions also hold empirically. However, many detailed empirical observations often contrast the theoretical expectation. Hence, although the trade theories do predict the general changes correctly, they are not capable of predicting the more specific empirical outcomes. The empirical analyses use intercountry input-output tables in constant prices with 6 EU countries (Germany, France, Italy, The Netherlands, Belgium and Denmark) of the years 1970, 1975, 1980 and 1985. These data prove to be a valuable contribution to analysing the economic effects of internationa [detailed...]

Partha Dasgupta
An Inquiry into Well-Being and Destitution

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: How should economic and social theory accommodate empirical facts about physical destitution, and how should governments respond to famines and hunger? This interdisciplinary book focuses on these and other questions about physical being. Dasgupta`s aim here is to offer a description of destitution as it occurs among rural populations of the poor countries of Asia, Africa, and Latin America, to give an account of the forces at work which perpetuate destitution, and to offer prescriptions for both the public and private spheres of life. A central concern of the author has been to reconcile theoretical considerations with the empirical evidence that has been obtained in the several disciplines this work encompasses, including anthropology, demography, ecology, geography, and philosophy. The entire discussion is designed to provide a philosophy for human well-being that can guide public policy in poor countries. Therefore, the role of the State, of communities, of households, and of… [detailed...]

William Playfair
An Inquiry into the Permanent Causes of the Decline and Fall of Powerful and Wealthy Nations

2008 y.
Publisher: —
Description: a selection from the PREFACE to the edition of 1807: IF it is of importance to study by what means a nation may acquire wealth and power, it is not less so to discover by what means wealth and power, when once acquired, may be preserved. The latter inquiry is, perhaps, the more important of the two, for many nations have remained, during a long period, virtuous and happy, without rising to wealth or greatness, but there is no example of happiness or virtue residing amongst a fallen people. In looking over the globe, if we fix our eyes on those places where wealth formerly was accumulated, and where commerce flourished, we see them, at the present day, peculiarly desolated and degraded. From the borders of the Persian Gulf, to the shores of the Baltic Sea, from Babylon and Palmyra, Egypt, Greece, and Italy, to Spain and Portugal, and the whole circle of the Hanseatic League, we trace the same ruinous [end of page #iii] remains of ancient greatness, presenting a melancholy… [detailed...]

An Insider`s Guide to the Mining Sector: How to Make Money from Gold and Mining Shares (Na)

2008 y.
Publisher: —
Description: The prospect of instant riches gives the mining sector an obvious glamour. And when the mining sector begins to run it can be an awesome sight and the excitement generated can be every bit as seductive and heady as that which enveloped markets during the internet boom. But due to the counter-cyclical nature of many mining stocks, they can also offer a valuable refuge when stock markets turn down. In this book, Michael Coulson gives a masterly overview of the sector, explains both the rewards and the pitfalls of investing in mining shares and argues convincingly that mining should once again form a core sector for all investors. The book is for anyone interested in mining, and particularly mining as an investment. Whilst it contains material which will be useful to even experienced followers of the sector, its main target is those who are interested in mining but perhaps not particularly familiar with the sector, and would like to know more. All the subjects are covered that are funda [detailed...]

An Insider`s Guide to the Mining Sector

Publisher: Harriman House
Description: In 2003, four mining shares rose over four times in price, with one gaining ten times. In just the first two months of 2004, 26 mining shares increased more than 20%, with five shares doubling. Merrill Lynch`s World Mining Trust is the UK`s best performing fund over the past three years, having risen by over 200 per cent. But is the mining boom about to end? Not according to this book, by Michael Coulson, Chairman of the Association of Mining Analysts. Coulson argues that, if anything, we are still in the early stages of prolonged strength in mining stocks and despite what some commentators are saying, the boom is far from over. The prospect of instant riches gives the mining sector an obvious glamour. And when the mining sector begins to run it can be an awesome sight and the excitement generated can be every bit as seductive and heady as that which enveloped markets during the internet boom.

An Intelligent Persons Guide to Modern Ireland (Intelligent Person`s Guide S.)

Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionThe Republic of Ireland, describes variously as `The Emerald Tiger`, `The Celtic Tiger` and the `Tiger Economy of Europe`, is apparently one of the greatest success stories of the twentieth-century Europe. Just seventy-five years into independence, less than forty years from the Stygian blackness of pre-modernity, and only a decade from what seemed to be an economic apocalypse, Ireland, by its own self-hype, has finally got the pig out of the parlour and climbed astride its back. Himself born at the dawn of the new era, John Waters is well placed to observe the national appetite for escape from its revolting history, full of dead things, into a new, liberal and enlightened age. This book is his attempt to write down the truth beforehe forgets. [detailed...]

An Intimate Affair: Women, Lingerie, and Sexuality

2007 y.
Publisher: University of California Press
Description: Intimate apparel, a term in use by 1921, has played a crucial role in the development of the `naughty but nice` feminine ideal that emerged in the twentieth century. Jill Fields`s engaging, imaginative, and sophisticated history of twentieth-century lingerie tours the world of women`s intimate apparel and arrives at nothing less than a sweeping view of twentieth-century women`s history via the undergarments they wore. Illustrated throughout and drawing on a wealth of evidence from fashion magazines, trade periodicals, costume artifacts, Hollywood films, and the records of organized labor, An Intimate Affair is a provocative examination of the ways cultural meanings are orchestrated by the `fashion-industrial complex,` and the ways in which individuals and groups embrace, reject, or derive meaning from these everyday, yet highly significant, intimate articles of clothing.
