The Ambivalent Consumer: Questioning Consumption in East Asia And the West

2006 y.
Publisher: —
Description: In The Ambivalent Consumer, Sheldon Garon and Patricia L. Maclachlan bring together an array of scholars who explore the ambivalence provoked, especially in East and Southeast Asia, by the global spread of `American` consumer culture. As the world`s second-largest economy, Japan has long engaged in a vibrant consumerism tempered by deeply held beliefs about morality, thrift, community, and national identity. Its neighbors in East and Southeast Asia-South Korea, China, Malaysia, and Singapore-have likewise anxiously balanced consumption and saving. The first comparative volume to examine global phenomena of consumer culture from the perspective of East Asia, this book analyzes not only the attractions of mass consumption but also the many discontents and dilemmas that arise from consumerism. Placing Japan and the United States in a transnational context, the book`s contributors find that European countries more closely resemble Japan than they do the United States in their saving… [detailed...]

But there’s one critical difference between Ambler and the other patients—Ambler isn’t crazy.

The Amenity Value of the Global Climate

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: This book develops and applies a far-reaching account of the economic value of climate, derived from its `amenity value`, or, the benefits which a particular climate provides to the people of that region or country. As climate change moves higher on the economic and policy agendas, reliable measures of the benefits and costs of specific climates, and of changes to them, become ever more critical. Detailed studies of a range of countries, including Britain, the US, India and Russia, show that the mobility of the population is crucial. When individuals are able to move, the amenity value of the climate is reflected in land prices and wage rates. Without mobility, amenity values emerge in patterns of purchasing, either to compensate for the disadvantages of the climate or to make best use of it. Indices are generated for the cost of living as a function of climate variables, and optimal climates are identified to determine who wins and who loses from climate change. Among other… [detailed...]

The American Ascendancy: How the United States Gained and Wielded Global Dominance

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: A simple question lurks amid the considerable controversy created by recent U.S. policy: What road did Americans travel to reach their current global preeminence? Taking the long historical view, Michael Hunt demonstrates that wealth, confidence, and leadership were key elements to America`s ascent. In an analytic narrative that illuminates the past rather than indulges in political triumphalism, he provides crucial insights into the country`s problematic place in the world today.Hunt charts America`s rise to global power from the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries to a culminating multilayered dominance achieved in the mid-twentieth century that has led to unanticipated constraints and perplexities over the last several decades. Themes that figure prominently in his account include the rise of the American state and a nationalist ideology and the domestic effects and international spread of consumer society. He examines how the United States remade great power relations,… [detailed...]

The American Brewery: From Colonial Evolution to Microbrew Revolution

2003 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book Description`Beer is living proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy.` -Ben Franklin The brewing industry has been an integral part of the American fabric from the very beginning. In fact, a brewery was one of the first structures built by early colonists. Because beer was safer to drink than water (having been boiled), it was the drink of choice for all age groups, from breakfast to bedtime. After the young nation won its independence, George Washington declared his support of the beer industry by stating he would henceforth drink only porters brewed in America. This lavishly designed history tells the story of American brewing through wars, tax hikes, Prohibition, consolidation, depression, recession, and the microbrewery boom that revived the industry beginning in the late 1980s. Archival and modern imagery and photographs depict buildings inside and out, workers, the production process, and equipment. In addition, sidebars feature memorabilia, home brewing,… [detailed...]

The American Corporation Today

Publisher: —
Description: Not since Edward Mason`s classic book The Corporation in Modern Society appeared in 1959 has anyone compiled an authoritative overview of the American business firm. Such a survey is now clearly overdue, for in the last thirty years both the corporation and the business environment has changed radically. In The American Corporation Today, Carl Kaysen and nineteen top business experts from around the country provide a much-needed analysis of American corporate life at the end of the century. Here is the American corporation from every angle--its postwar history, its relation to the law, its financing, its impact on technological innovation, its role as employer and as political force, and much more. The contributors--all of whom are recognized experts in their fields--not only tackle many of the same key areas that the contributors to Mason`s classic study looked at, but they also illuminate issues that have only arisen in recent years. For instance, Raymond Vernon describes the… [detailed...]

The American Cowboy : A Photographic History

2004 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book Description In his introduction to THE AMERICAN COWBOY, Bob Edgar speaks of a “farsighted fraternity”—the photographers such as Belden, Huffman, Koerner, Smith, and Kendrick—who recorded images of cattle drives, frontier towns, roundup camps, cowboys on the range, chuck wagons, and horses and cattle. They probably knew that they were recording for posterity both a dramatic and emotive period in history and a changing country, in this case the cattlemen’s frontier, which existed from the end of the Civil War to the early part of the twentieth century. Through selections from museums and state historical society collections, THE AMERICAN COWBOY puts together a stirring series of images that capture the movement of life on the range. Now, as our frontier extends itself into a new millennium with disparate concerns, THE AMERICAN COWBOY offers an evocative message of “a dream and a forgetting, a chapter… [detailed...]

The American Dream and the Power of Wealth: Choosing Schools and Inheriting Inequality in the Land of Opportunity

2006 y.
Publisher: —
Description: The American Dream and the Power of Wealth investigates the way that wealth (rather than income) structures educational opportunity in the United States. Furthermore, it shows the way that educational opportunity-the bedrock upon which our pervasive ideology of meritocracy or, in Johnson`s terms, `the American Dream` is founded-structures the racial class system in the United States. She accomplishes this by analyzing an impressive store of qualitative and quantitative research on three cities: Boston, Los Angeles, and St. Louis. The meritocratic ideology is riddled with contradictions due to the massive and growing wealth disparity between blacks and whites, in particular. Everyone wants the best for their children, but access to assets is what allows wealthy people to either send their children to private school or buy expensive homes in neighborhoods with good public schools. In this equation, income doesn`t matter so much, but wealth-which is typically… [detailed...]

Garfinkle warns that this supply-side economic vision favors the privileged few over the majority of American citizens striving to better their economic condition. Garfinkle employs historical insight and data-based economic analysis to demonstrate compellingly the sharp departure of the supply-side Gospel of Wealth from an American ideal that dates back to Abraham Lincoln—the vision of America as a societyA in whichA ordinary, hard-working individuals can get ahead and attain a middle-class living, andA in whichA government plays an active role in expanding opportunities and ensuring against economic exploitation.
