Bhagirath L. Das
The WTO and the Multilateral Trading System : Past, Present and Future

2004 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book Description This book charts the evolution of the multilateral trading system and explores the future outlook for the World Trade Organisation (WTO). Bhagirath Lal examines how GATT/WTO has traditionally been used by the major industrial nationsto pursue their own economic and political interests, at the expense of Third World development. This North-South imbalance continues today. Further, this book traces the intimate links between these deficiencies and the WTO`s murky decision-making processes, dominated by its developed country members. Das asserts that future stability in international economic relations depends on abandoning the WTO`s partiality. Towards this end, he advances concrete suggestions for radical reform in the basic structure, rules and practices of the trade body, and for complementary actions by other institutional, governmental and non-governmental actors. The analysis and proposals laid out in this book are grounded in a practical perspective… [detailed...]

The WTO and the University: Globalization, GATS, and American Higher Education (RoutledgeFalmer Dissertation Series in Higher Education)

2006 y.
Publisher: —
Description: This book fills a niche in the literature on trade and higher education services by providing context and analysis of the trade issue in the American higher education context. By and large, the debate about the merits of including higher education services within free trade policies has occurred outside of the United States, even though the U.S. Office of the Trade Representative has specifically included higher education services in its March 2003 negotiating offer to the General Agreement on Trade in Services (GATS). This book emerged from research and conversations on the potential implications of free trade on American higher education, implications which have yet to lead to any real conversation or debate within the broad higher education community in the United States. The scope of the book is specifically US centered, though this is background information on higher education in a global policy context. It is distinctive in that it is a unique and original… [detailed...]

The WTO: A Discordant Orchestra

2006 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Potentially one of the most powerful of all multilateral institutions in terms of ensuring smooth and free trade flows globally, the World Trade Organization (WTO) is also one of the most controversial. Its achievements notwithstanding, what significantly plagues the WTO are the conflicting objectives of its constituent members which act as a deterrent to progress. Therefore, it is time to conduct a stock-taking exercise and review the developments in the WTO since its establishment. This book takes stock of the WTO and reviews its functioning since its establishment in 1995. It narrates the story of the WTO with a view to finding a solution to the unproductive conflicts hampering its functioning. The author ably captures the tensions within the WTO as also the developments which have given rise to these complex conflicts. While the author maintains that the biggest challenge facing the WTO is the North-South discord, he also highlights the frequent emergence of… [detailed...]

The Wage Curve

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: `Labour economics is in ferment [and] this book is a good point of entry to the argument.` -- The Economist The Wage Curve casts doubt on some of the most important ideas in macroeconomics, labor economics, and regional economics. According tomacroeconomic orthodoxy, there is a relationship between unemployment and the rate of change of wages. According to orthodoxy in labor economics and regional economics, an area`s wage is positively related to the amount of joblessness in the area. The Wage Curve suggests that both these beliefs are incorrect. Blanchflower and Oswald argue that the stable relationship is a downward-sloping convex curve linking local unemployment and the level of pay. Their study, which is one of the most intensive in the history of social science, is based on random samples that provide computerized information on nearly four million people from sixteen countries. Throughout, the authors systematically present evidence and possible explanations for… [detailed...]

The Wages of Affluence: Labor and Management in Postwar Japan

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: Andrew Gordon goes to the core of the Japanese enterprise system, the workplace, and reveals a complex history of contest and confrontation. The Japanese model produced a dynamic economy that owed as much to coercion as to happy consensus. The book drawson examples across Japanese industry, but focuses in depth on iron and steel--an industry at the center of the country`s economic recovery and high-speed growth. Beginning with the Occupation reforms and their influence on the workplace, Gordon shows howworking people had to compromise institutions of self-determination in pursuit of economic affluence. He also rebuts hasty predictions that Japanese industrial relations are about to be dramatically transformed in the American free-market image. `This isa major achievement, and confirms Andrew Gordon`s place as a truly outstanding scholar of Japanese labor history … Those wishing to understand the post-war remaking of Japan`s political economy and society will find much of value in… [detailed...]

Adam Tooze
The Wages of Destruction: The Making and Breaking of the Nazi Economy

2007 y.
Publisher: —
Description: In this groundbreaking new history, Adam Tooze provides the clearest picture to date of the Nazi war machine and its undoing. There was no aspect of Nazi power untouched by economics?it was Hitler`s obsession and the reason the Nazis came to power in the first place. The Second World War was fought, in Hitler`s view, to create a European empire strong enough to take on the United States. But as The Wages of Destruction makes clear, Hitler`s armies were never powerful enough to beat either Britain or the Soviet Union?and Hitler never had a serious plan as to how he might defeat the United States. The Wages of Destruction is an eye-opening and controversial account that will challenge conventional interpretations of the period and will find an enthusiastic readership among fans of Ian Kershaw and Richard Evans. BACKCOVER: Advance praise for The Wages of Destruction: ?One of the most important and original books to be published about the… [detailed...]

The Wages of Peace: Disarmament in a Small Industrialized Economy

Description: With the end of the Cold War, many nations have set about cutting their military spending, and visions of a large `peace dividend` have emerged. Yet, even today, the arms race remains one of the major projects of humankind, and one of the most unproductive. The Wages of Peace explores some of the consequences and opportunities stemming from the resulting peace dividend. This book charts a middle course between extravagant claims about the improvements in welfare, development or the environment which may be funded by the peace divided, and dire assessments of how militarized economies will collapse as a result of disarmament spiced with warnings that the savings have already been squandered.
