Probably. Why? Because the task is too enormous? Because the goal is too hard to achieve? Because you could not get the people in your organization to buy into the idea? But, wouldn?t it be fabulous if you could achieve this, or its equivalent, in your place of business. How then could the construction of Chartres cathedral be achieved? Individuals working on a largely voluntary basis hauled and hammered stone, strained on pulleys, and mixed mortar to craft this monumental building. What drove them? A vision - the fulfilment of something in which they all consummately believed, something that validated the unrewarded toil, something they believed in fully. They call it Faith. What this achievement confirms is what is… [detailed...]

Reintegrating India with the World Economy

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: After nearly five decades of insulation from world markets, state controls and slow growth, India embarked in 1991 on a process of liberalization of controls and progressive integration with the global economy in an effort to put the economy on a path ofrapid and sustained growth. Despite major changes in the governments since then, the thrust of reforms has been maintained. According to the World Bank, only 19 out of 137 countries had more rapid growth than India`s at over six percent per year in the 1990`s. In this study, Professors Srinivasan and Tendulkar analyze the economics and politics of India`s recent and growing integration with the world economy. They argue that this process has to be nurtured and accelerated if India is to eradicate its poverty and take its rightful place in the global economic system. The topics covered include: historical roots and the political economy of India`s late integration, domestic and external constraints on integration, external capital… [detailed...]

Reinventing Collapse: The Soviet Example and American Prospects

2008 y.
Publisher: —
Description: In the waning days of the American empire, we find ourselves mired in political crisis, with our foreign policy coming under sharp criticism and our economy in steep decline. These trends mirror the experience of the Soviet Union in the early 1980s. Reinventing Collapse examines the circumstances of the demise of the Soviet superpower and offers clear insights into how we might prepare for coming events.Rather than focusing on doom and gloom, Reinventing Collapse suggests that there is room for optimism if we focus our efforts on personal and cultural transformation. With characteristic dry humor, Dmitry Orlov identifies three progressive stages of response to the looming crisis:Mitigation-alleviating the impact of the coming upheavalAdaptation-adjusting to the reality of changed conditionsOpportunity-flourishing after the collapseHe argues that by examining maladaptive parts of our common cultural baggage, we can survive, thrive, and discover more meaningful and fulfilling lives, in… [detailed...]

Reinventing Foreign Aid

2008 y.
Publisher: —
Description: The urgency of reducing poverty in the developing world has been the subject of a public campaign by such unlikely policy experts as George Clooney, Alicia Keyes, Elton John, Angelina Jolie, and Bono. And yet accompanying the call for more foreign aid is an almost universal discontent with the effectiveness of the existing aid system. In Reinventing Foreign Aid, development expert William Easterly has gathered top scholars in the field to discuss how to improve foreign aid. These authors, Easterly points out, are not claiming that their ideas will (to invoke a current slogan) Make Poverty History. Rather, they take on specific problems and propose some hard-headed solutions. Easterly himself, in an expansive and impassioned introductory chapter, makes a case for the `searchers`—who explore solutions by trial and error and learn from feedback—over the `planners`—who throw an endless supply of resources at a big goal—as the most likely to reduce poverty. Other writers look at… [detailed...]

Reinventing Free Labor: Padrone and Immigrant Workers in the North American West, 1880-1930

Description: One of the most infamous villains in North America during the Progressive Era was the padrone, a mafia-like immigrant boss who allegedly enslaved his compatriots and kept them uncivilized, unmanly, and unfree. In this first-ever history of the padrone, Gunther Peck argues that they were not primitive men but rather thoroughly modern entrepreneurs who used corporations, the labor contract, and the right to quit to create far-flung coercive networks. Drawing on Greek, Spanish, and Italian language sources, Peck analyzes how immigrant workers emancipated themselves using the tools of padrone power to their own advantage. [detailed...]

Reinventing Functional Finance: Transformational Growth and Full Employment

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: This ambitious book seeks both to revive and revise the idea of ?functional finance?. Followers of this doctrine believe that government budgets should concentrate solely on the macroeconomic impact on the economy, rather than reflecting a concern for sound finance and budgetary discipline. Reinventing Functional Finance examines the origins of this idea, and then considers it in a modern context. The authors explore the concept of NAIRU and argue that modern economies can operate at the level of full employment without provoking unmanageable inflation. They also contend that budget deficits do not have the deleterious effects commonly ascribed to them, the belief that they do rests on a misunderstanding of modern money. In this context, they highlight the relevance of Abba Lerner?s famous dictum, ?money is a creature of the State?. The authors also debate the merits of various proposals for ?Employer of Last Resort? programs, which combine… [detailed...]

Reinventing Rationality: The Role of Regulatory Analysis in the Federal Bureaucracy

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: In this book, Professor McGarity reveals the complex and problematic relationship between the `regulatory reform` movements initiated in the early l970s and the United States` federal bureaucracy. Examining both the theory and application of `regulatoryreform` under the Reagan administration, the author succeeds in offering both a relevant analysis and critique of `regulatory reform` and its implementation through bureaucratic channels. Using several case studies from the early Reagan years, this book describes the clash of regulatory cultures resulting from the President`s attempt to incorporate `regulatory analysis` into the bureaucratic decisionmaking process. McGarity examines the roles that regulatory analysts and their counterparts in the Office of Management and Budget play in decisionmaking by offering hundreds of interviews with scientists, engineers, regulatory analysts and upper level personnel in federal agencies. The author then critiques the reformers` claim that… [detailed...]
