The African Economic Dilemma

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: Dr. E.J. Manga`s `The African Economic Dilemma` analyzes and presents research on the current economic situation and the long-range planning strategies meant to revive the Cameroon economy. Along the way, the author challenges many economic and management assumptions. The study extensively uses two qualitative research techniques: a historical method or procedure, and a descriptive in-depth interview method. The applied qualitative methodology is also accompanied by analysis of managerial, economic strategies, tables and economic models that are necessary and required to be implemented by the Cameroon government. `The African Economic Dilemma` does not presume to direct national leaders in Cameroon on how to properly formulate and implement issues such as the nation`s economic policy. However, a key issue addressed relates to the actions the Cameroon government can take to achieve its goal of self-sustained growth. This study amalgamates economics and management to produce a plan for… [detailed...]

The African Transformation of Western Medicine and the Dynamics of Global Cultural Exchange

2008 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Beginning with the colonial era, Western biomedicine has radically transformed African medical beliefs and practices. Conversely, in using Western biomedicine, Africans have also transformed it. The African Transformation of Western Medicine and the Dynamics of Global Cultural Exchange contends that contemporary African medical systems—no less “biomedical” than Western medicine—in fact greatly enrich and expand the notion of biomedicine, reframing it as a global cultural form deployed across global networks of cultural exchange. The book analyzes biomedicine as a complex and dynamic sociocultural form, the conceptual premises of which make it necessarily subject to ongoing change and development as it travels the globe. David Baronov captures the complexities of this cultural exchange by using world-systems analysis in a way that places global cultural processes on equal footing with political and economic processes. In doing so, he both allows the story of Africa’s transformation of… [detailed...]

The Age Curve: How to Profit from the Coming Demographic Storm

2008 y.
Publisher: —
Description: For years, marketers have held on to unwavering beliefs that have dictated how they market to their consumers. But the hard truth is that the changes we see in marketing and business are based on one undeniable factor—the size of the generations we aselling to. As each generation ages, what they buy and how much they buy will change. Each product and service has a “best customer” that sustains a business. As these customers grow up, the smartest marketers will stay ahead of them—and their money. In TAge Curve, marketing guru Kenneth Gronbach shows executives and entrepreneurs how to anticipate this wave of predictable demand and ride it to success. Gronbach reveals how our largest generations, the Baby Boomers and Generation Y, are redefining how market and how businesses can anticipate their needs more effectively.

Brink Lindsey
The Age of Abundance: How Prosperity Transformed America`s Politics and Culture

2008 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Until the 1950s, the struggle to feed, clothe, and employ the nation drove most of American political life. From slavery to the New Deal, political parties organized around economic interests and engaged in fervent debate over the best allocation of agonzingly scarce resources. But with the explosion of the nation`s economy in the years after World War II, a new set of needs began to emerge—a search for meaning and self-expression on one side, and a quest for stability and a return to traditional values n the other. In The Age of Abundance, Brink Lindsey offers a bold reinterpretation of the latter half of the twentieth century. In this sweeping history of postwar America, the tumult of racial and gender politics, the rise of the counterculture, and th conservative revolution of the 1980s and 1990s are portrayed in an entirely new light. Readers will learn how and why the contemporary ideologies of left and right emerged in response to the novel challenges of mass prosperity. The… [detailed...]

The Age of Adolescence: Joseph Sterling Photographs 1959-1964

Publisher: —
Description: Adolescence is a time of drives: sexual, emotional, and vehicular. That age sparkles with the promise of what`s to come, hides its insecurities under the cover of bravado, and trembles with excitement about the here and now. From 1959 to 1964 (arguably the adolescence of America), Joseph Sterling photographed teenagers, mostly in and around Chicago, hanging out after school, at drive-ins, in fast cars. As Sterling himself defined it, `the world of the adolescent is totally interlaced within itself and incapable of freeing itself . . . It whirls, rolls, and engulfs what it is allowed to engulf.` During that bridging period between postwar peace and prewar upheaval, Sterling was a student himself at Moholy-Nagy`s Institute of Design in Chicago, where he studied photography under Harry Callahan, Aaron Siskind, and Frederick Sommer with classmates Yasuhiro Ishimoto and Ray Metzker. Looking back now at this body of work in its entirety, a viewer can easily see that America was on the… [detailed...]

The Age of Confucian Rule: The Song Transformation of China

2009 y.
Publisher: Belknap Press
Description: Just over a thousand years ago, the Song dynasty emerged as the most advanced civilization on earth. Within two centuries, China was home to nearly half of all humankind. In this concise history, we learn why the inventiveness of this era has been favorably compared with the European Renaissance, which in many ways the Song transformation surpassed. With the chaotic dissolution of the Tang dynasty, the old aristocratic families vanished. A new class of scholar-officials - products of a meritocratic examination system - took up the task of reshaping Chinese tradition by adapting the precepts of Confucianism to a rapidly changing world. Through fiscal reforms, these elites liberalized the economy, eased the tax burden, and put paper money into circulation. Their redesigned capitals buzzed with traders, while the education system offered advancement to talented men of modest means. Their rationalist approach led to inventions in printing, shipbuilding, weaving, ceramics… [detailed...]
