Larry Allen
The Global Economic System since 1945 (Reaktion Books - Contemporary Worlds)

2004 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book Description The strictly mathematical foundation of conventional economic theories has resulted in circumscribed analyses of world economic history. Larry Allen`s groundbreaking The Global Economic System since 1945 , in contrast, re-evaluates world economic history in a context that recognizes and avoids the inherent limitations of mathematical models. The Global Economic System since 1945 does not shun economic theory, but rather uses it as a tool to reassess recent world economic history. Allen describes how, starting at the end of World War Two, powerful corporations lobbied governments in an effort to reduce the perceived constraints of regulation. In the past twenty-five years these voices have grown increasingly influential, as governments worldwide adopted free-market policies, reduced economic regulation, and promoted the virtues of free-market capitalism. The Global Economic System since 1945 presents a fresh and wide-ranging… [detailed...]

The Global Economy and International Financing

Publisher: —
Description: Interactions between global corporations and global governance demand that today`s corporate executives and policymakers have clear understanding of macroeconomic issues and their effects on international finance and corporate management. Beenhakker bridges the gap between macroeconomics and international finance and shows how strategic management, national government policies, and the international public sector are all related, often in subtle ways. With numerous examples and illustrations, plus a clearly defined and usable conceptual framework, he provides executives in multinational corporations with the techniques and procedures they need for effective decision making in this newly configured international business environment.

The Global Economy in the 1990s: A Long-Run Perspective

2006 y.
Publisher: —
Description: The 1990s were an extraordinary, contradictory, and fascinating period of economic development. Specifically, the `boom` of the 1990s and the way that it ended evoked many historical precedents, particularly, past bubbles and `busts`. In this book, contributions by eminent economic historians examine key issues such as the causes and sustainability of productive growth in the U.S., the sluggish growth in Europe and stagnation in Japan. They assess whether, seen in long-run perspective, the 1990s does actually fall into a familiar pattern of economic activity or whether it represents a watershed in economic history. [detailed...]

The Global Economy: Changing Politics, Family and Society

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: The global economy is enormous-about $32 trillion per annum-and it is pervasive. Because of mass communication and advanced technology, the global economy affects the output of goods and services of every nation. Gone forever are the days when mighty oceans or mountains allowed any country to isolate itself from the rest of the world. Time zones have been replaced by the 24-hour-a-day stock market. The fate of the South Korean won and the Thai baht is a matter of major concern to the stock markets of Washington, London and Sao Paulo. Today, no nation is an island but a part of a world-wide economic archipelago. Today, because economics is global, politics is becoming global. Furthermore, the globalization of the economy impacts the socio-cultural shape of every nation and people on the face of the earth. From soft drinks to jeans, automobiles to computers, television news to movies, the world is being homogenized, usually in the American image. The film `Titanic` is playing to… [detailed...]

The Global Environment, Natural Resources, and Economic Growth

2008 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Recently, the public attention has turned toward the intricate interrelation between economic growth and global warming. This book focuses on this nexus but broadens the framework to study the issue. Growth is seen as global growth, which affects the global environment and climate change. Global growth, in particular high economic growth rates, imply a fast depletion of renewable and non-renewable resources. Thus this book deals with the impact of the environment and the effect of the exhaustive use of natural resources on economic growth and welfare of market economies as well as the reverse linkage. It is arranged in three parts: Part I of the book discusses the environment and growth. There, Greiner and Semmler incorporate the role of environmental pollution into modern endogenous growth models and use recently developed dynamic methods and techniques to derive appropriate abatement activities that policymakers can institute. Part II looks at global climate change using these… [detailed...]

The Global Family Planning Revolution: Three Decades of Population Policies and Programs

2007 y.
Publisher: World Bank Publications
Description: The striking upsurge in population growth rates in developing countries at the close of World War II gained force during the next decade. From the 1950s to the 1970s, scholars and advocacy groups publicized the trend and drew troubling conclusions about its economic and ecological implications. Private educational and philanthropic organizations, government, and international organizations joined in the struggle to reduce fertility. Three decades later this movement has seen changes beyond anyone`s most optimistic dreams, and global demographic stabilization is expected in this century. The Global Family Planning Revolution preserves the remarkable record of this success. Its editors and authors offer more than a historical record. They disccuss important lessons for current and future initiatives of the international community. Some programs succeeded while others initially failed, and the analyses provide valuable guidance for emerging health-related policy objectives and responses… [detailed...]

The Global Food Economy: The Battle for the Future of Farming

2007 y.
Publisher: —
Description: This book sets out some answers to the question: how can we build an ecologically sustainable and humane system of food production and distribution? The modern food economy is a paradox. Surplus `food mountains` sit alongside global malnutrition and the developed world subsidizes its own agriculture while pressurizing the developing world to liberalize at all costs. Export competition is increasingly aggressive whilst the reliance on imports in many countries has worrying implications for food security. Family farms go out of business and dispossessed peasant farmers are driven into urban slums. The WTO`s uneven application of neoliberal economics to food production is relatively new, and the consequences of mounting deficits, rising `food miles`, and social upheaval, are untested but ominous.

The Global Genome: Biotechnology, Politics, and Culture (Leonardo Books)

2005 y.
Publisher: —
Description: In the age of global biotechnology, DNA can exist as biological material in a test tube, as a sequence in a computer database, and as economically valuable information in a patent. In The Global Genome , Eugene Thacker asks us to consider the relationship of these three entities and argues that -- by their existence and their interrelationships -- they are fundamentally redefining the notion of biological `life itself.` Biological science and the biotech industry are increasingly organized at a global level, in large part because of the use of the Internet in exchanging biological data. International genome sequencing efforts, genomic databases, the development of World Intellectual Property policies, and the `borderless` business of biotech are all evidence of the global intersections of biology and informatics -- of genetic codes and computer codes. Thacker points out the internal tension in the very concept of biotechnology: the products are more `tech` than… [detailed...]

Description: Very little has been written or published on the global experience vis-a-vis information technology that puts both developed and developing countries into a larger context from which lessons can be extrapolated. Within the IT and Development fields, there has been much talk and hyperbole about the power of IT to transform the economic development process, but very little rigorous analysis has been carried out to document the global situation. The frontier of the field is to explore and understand how IT is being used in the developing world, what the barriers to IT diffusion and adoption are in developing countries, and what the main lessons are from the developing world that can aid in designing policies and solutions that can overcome the international digital divide. The Global Information Technology Readiness Report 2001-2002 provides the first comprehensive and comparative analysis of the diffusion and use of information technology in 70 countries around the world.

Description: By 2002, all but a handful of countries were connected to the Internet. The intertwining of the Internet and the globalization of finance, corporate governance, and trade raises questions about national models of technology development and property rights. The sudden ability of hundreds of millions of users to gain access to a global communication infrastructure spurred the creation of new firms and economic opportunities. The Internet challenged existing institutions and powerful interests: Technology was global, but its economic and business development was molded in the context of prevailing national institutions. Comparing the experiences of seven countries -- France, Germany, India, Japan, Sweden, South Korea, and the United States -- this book analyzes the rise of the Internet and its impact on changing national institutions. Each country chapter describes how the Internet developed, evaluates the extent to which the Silicon Valley model was adopted, and suggests… [detailed...]
