This book offers a kaleidoscope of many different ideas
and concepts. It is therefore not surprising that a large
number of different topics are addressed in this
publication, as the editor of the book try to reflect its
variety. There are articles on the philosopher of culture
- Michael Polanyi by Michele Cangiani and Alexander
Ebner. In -a staggering world-, Polanyi certainly
signifies one of the leading transformations of the
social sciences stemming from Europe. As Stolper tried to
reflect the major intellectual developments in his
publication, Polanyi also being authors was nevertheless
referred to again and again. There are articles focusing
on demography at the beginning of the twentieth century
articles covering monetary aspects.

5 Elliott, Anthony (ed)
Routledge handbook of identity studies / Anthony Elliott.
-- London: Routledge, 2011.
xxiv, 407p. 25cm.
ISBN : 9780415555586.
155..2 ELL 134463
The book offers an overview of the analysis of identity
in the social sciences, and seeks to develop a new agenda
for identity-studies in the twenty-first century. The key
theories of identity, ranging from classical accounts to
postmodern, psychoanalytic and feminist approaches, are
drawn together and critically appraised, and there are
substantive sections looking at racial, ethnic, gendered,
queer, consumerist, virtual and global identities. The
Handbook also makes an essential contribution to the
debate now opening up over identity-politics and its
cultural consequences. From anti-globalization protestors
to new ecological warriors, from devotees of therapy
culture to defenders of international human rights: the
culture of identity-politics is fast redefining the
public political sphere.

necessary leader skills and age-related leader tasks,
factors contributing to development of leader identity,
and ways to improve the process of leader development.
With contributions from well-known leadership researchers
such as Robert Sternberg, Howard Gardner, Bruce Avolio,
and Susan Komives, the volume shows research evidence for
factors such as early childhood and youth experiences on
leadership development, which have implications for the
way we understand and train leadership in today-s
organizations.

American social theory. This detailed, timely book
provides a map of the production and reception of French
social thought within a global sociological context.

Robbins examines how their ideas were produced and
received before persuasively setting out the key
differences between their philosophical and ideological
positions. The book sensitively traces the cross-currents
of social theory and confidently leads the reader through
the complex foundations of Western social thought.

Marshall McLuhan pioneered the study of the media and is
now making a comeback, despite the fact that he died in
1980. McLuhan was a professor of English who loved James
Joyce, hated television, played himself in Woody Allen-s
Annie Hall, and fired off ideas like a machine gun. If he
were alive today, he would want to continue infuriating a
world moving into the 21st century with 19th century
perceptions. This book is described as a "documentary
comic book" that explains his ideas but doesn-t take
itself too seriously.

This book provides a comprehensive introduction to the
issues, concepts and theories through which people have
tried to understand consumer culture throughout the
modern period, and puts the current state of thinking
into a broader context. Thematically organized, the book
shows how the central aspects of consumer culture - such
as needs, choice, identity, status, alienation, objects,
culture - have been debated within modern theories. This
approach introduces consumer culture as a subject which -
far from being of narrow or recent interest - is
intimately tied to the central issues of modern times and
modern social thought.

This collection brings together many of the world-s
leading sociologists of education to explore and address
key issues and concerns within the discipline. The thirty
seven newly commissioned chapters draw upon theory and
research to provide new accounts of contemporary
educational processes, global trends, and changing and
enduring forms of social conflict and social inequality.
The research indicates that two complexly interrelated
agendas are discernible in the heat and noise of
educational change over the past twenty-five years. The
book examines the ways in which the sociology of
education has responded to these two political agendas,
addressing a range of issues which cover three key areas:
perspectives and theories, social processes and practices
and inequalities and resistances.

This book examines how issues of mega city development,
urban form, sustainability, and unsustainability are
conceived, how governance processes are influenced by
these ideas, and how these processes have in turn
influenced outcomes on the ground, in some cases in
transformative ways. Through 15 in-depth case studies by
prominent researchers from around the world, this book
examines the major challenges facing megacities today.
The studies are organized around a shared set of concerns
and questions about issues of sustainability, land
development, urban governance, and urban form. Some of
the main questions addressed are: What are the most
pressing issues of sustainability and urban form in each
megacity? How are major issues of sustainability
understood and framed by policymakers? The publication of
this book is a step toward answering these and other
crucial questions.

The area claimed by the British Empire as Western
Australia was primarily colonized through two major
thrusts: the development of the Swan River Colony to the
southwest in 1829, and the 1863 movement of Australian
born settlers to colonize the northwest region. Through
an examination of historical records, town layout and
architecture, landscape analysis, excavation data, and
material culture analysis, the author created a nuanced
understanding of the social, economic, and cultural
developments that took place during this dynamic period
in Australian history. In examining this complex
settlement history, the author employed several different
research methodologies in parallel, to create a
comprehensive understanding of the area.

This book presents an account of the role played by 58
figures and diagrams commonly used in economic theory.
This cover a large part of mainstream economic analysis,
both microeconomics and macroeconomics and also general
equilibrium theory. The contributors have produced a well
considered and definitive selection including some from
empirical research such as the Phillips curve, the
Kuznets curve and the Lorenz curve. Each entry presents
an accurate and concise record of the history of the
figure or diagram, including later developments and any
controversy that arose in its development. The book
highlights how the use of geometric methods has played a
central part in the development of economic theory and
analysis, as a method of discovery, more commonly as a
method of exposition and occasionally as a method of
proof of propositions in economic theory and analysis.

broad themes. The first theme is on open macroeconomics
and transmission mechanisms that highlight the
interactions between countries in the globalization era.
The second theme covers the contentious issue of renminbi
valuation, which has significant implications for the
debate on global imbalances. The third theme covers

This book investigates, from a Keynesian perspective, the
interaction of effective demand with the wage-price
spiral, the dependence of goods market outcomes on
financial markets, and the impact of monetary policy on
financial and real markets. These issues are discussed by
way of rigorously formulated approaches that lay
foundations for a theory of endogenously generated
business fluctuations. The main findings indicate that
balanced growth in capitalist economies is unlikely due
to changes in behavioral factors that drive the wage-
price spiral and the financial markets. This book is
essential reading for advanced level macroeconomic
modules and for those interested in both traditional
macroeconomics and the dominant neoclassical approach of
the New Keynesians.

This book proposes new methods to value equity and model
the Markowitz efficient frontier using Markov switching
models. In particular, the book proposes that there are
substantial differences between -bull- and -bear- market
efficient portfolios that need to be taken into account
when building diversified portfolios. Also, the book
proposes a new concept of persistence that may be used to
define and better understand the concept of nonlinear co
integration. The book reviews the recent developments of
using fractional integrated models to model stock market
volatility and suggests a new explanation for the
persistence observed in share prices and their associated
returns. The book develops a new procedure that involves
using the bootstrap to build vector error correction
models and as an application, investigates the nonlinear
relationship between oil and stock markets, respectively.

eminent scientists during seminars, symposia and winter
school held during the past three years. In fact, there
is widespread unrest and distress among the farmers of rain
fed areas due to erratic and uneven distribution of
rains, risk prone agriculture and poor crop yields due to
improper management of natural resources. Soil
conservation, rainwater management, agronomic
measurements such as crop diversification can transfer
eastern India from a low productive to a high productive
region. Agricultural production in rain fed areas must
address small farmers with small holdings and make it
profitable and sustainable through interventions in soil,
water and plant nutrient management for crops grown in
those areas.

This book fulfills the long felt necessity of a text
dealing with concepts of agriculture business. Agri-
business is a generic term for the various businesses
involved in food production, including farming and
contract farming, seed supply, agro-chemicals, farm
machinery, wholesale and distribution, processing,
marketing, and retail sales. The term has two distinct
connotations depending on context. Within the agriculture
industry, agri-business is widely used simply as a
convenient portmanteau of agriculture and business,
referring to the range of activities and disciplines
encompassed by modern food production. Here, the term is
only descriptive, and is synonymous in the broadest sense
with food industry. The book can also prove to be a
worthy companion and guide for the students, users and
researchers.

Drawing upon diverse strands of theory, historical
perspective, political economy, and econometrics, the
book presents an eclectic and original narrative of the
Indian growth experience. The main body of the book is
divided into four chapters. Chapter 1 provides a critical
exposition of some prominent theoretical representations
of growth and a historical perspective on its drivers.
The remaining three chapters provide a fresh analysis of
three periods, respectively, 1950-64, 1965-91, and 1991
onwards. Presenting a favorable appraisal of the growth
record of early independent India and an account of how
the advantage was lost, the book argues that it is not
just -more reforms- that stand in the way of sustained
double-digit growth rates. The prospects for high long-
term growth in India are instead linked with development
of agriculture and education, particularly schooling.

Economic freedom is a concept used to measure the extent
to which government constrain efficient decision-making
and distort resource allocation decisions. It has been
used in cross-country literature to show that countries
with higher levels of economic freedom have better
development indicators. Sub-national attempts to capture
economic freedom are rare, pertinent in a federal country
like India, where many factor markets are State subjects
under the seventh schedule. This book modifies economic
freedom concepts and applies them to India-s inter-State
setting, not only measuring economic freedom in major
states, but also demonstrating links between economic
freedom and development.

This book evaluates whether the social indicators of the
excluded groups are converging or diverging with the rest
of the population. The Report addresses three critical
issues: (i) Do different social groups like the SCs, STs,
and Muslims get excluded from the development process?
(ii) Has India experienced inclusive growth in the true
sense? (iii) How are flagship programmes or schemes of
the government dealing with some of these concerns? This
report analyses the factors affecting the socio-economic
development of the people of the country in a wide
prospective.

This book provides a fresh perspectives on India-s growth
experience from Independence to the recent global
financial crisis. This volume documents how the conduct
of Indian monetary and financial policy has been
unorthodox by the standards of extant international
conventional wisdom, but appropriate to the macroeconomic
and structural conditions prevailing in India. With a
focus on growth drivers and financial stability, the
volume deals with a wide-range of issues: growth of
manufacturing and service sectors, role of policies,
urban infrastructure investment, public service delivery,
role of central banks, and the interaction between
international finance and monetary policy. Drawing upon
the post-reform experience and the global crisis, the
volume takes stock of current challenges and suggests
strategies to sustain long-term double-digit growth
rates.

book begins by examining the ideas of previous
Minnowbrook conferences, such as relevance and change,
which are reflective of the 1960s and 1980s. It then
moves beyond old Minnow brook concepts to focus on public
administration challenges of the future: globalism,
twenty first century collaborative governance, the role
of information technology in governance, deliberative
democracy and public participation, the organization of
the future, and teaching the next generation of leaders.

This book investigates the impacts and consequences of
budgetary reform through a comparative assessment of
advanced Organization for Economic Co-Operation and
Development (OECD) democracies that have undertaken
budget reforms over the past two to three decades. This
book traces the -story of reform- in the respective
countries. The book captures both the essence of each
nation-s approach, as well as discusses the similarities
and trends. The study also investigates how the various
roles of the central budget agencies have changed with
respect to public expenditure, how budget processes have
developed and the impact on the relations between key
actors. It also analyses the internal cultures of central
budget agencies to explore how they analyse events,
problems and their roles in controlling the fiscal policy
of government.

The book offers an interdisciplinary analysis of complex
issues, constructs, and interventions that deal with
human social problems with global implications. The
author deconstructs Oscar Lewis- Culture of Poverty
theory and its applications in the fields of social
welfare, policy, and development. Poverty, a global
scourge, is defined as a political rather than an
economic issue. The implications of this formulation
paradigmatically shift the focus of discourse in the
social sciences. "Poverty of Culture" posits social
development theory and practice in a critically important
context challenging the scientific orthodoxy of our
times.

practices in their classrooms, departments, and offices.
This book presents the theoretical framework used, and
many of the successful projects to which it gave rise.
The book discusses social justice education, political
activism, contemplative traditions and system analysis.
It demonstrates how theoretically, disciplinary and
individual classroom praxis, intra and inter-
institutional collaborations can challenge and change
liberal arts colleges whose mission statements
increasingly call for diversity. It offers learning
environments that are active and engaged, open to

This book deals with several aspects of the challenge to
design learning in and for a changing world. The first
part concerns program development. It answers the
question how we can incorporate the need for change in
our thinking about curriculum-development and identify
the necessary elements to incorporate in our curricula.
The second part focuses a range of opportunities, but at
the same time can possibly jeopardize some processes that
are taken for granted. The third part of this book digs
further into the possibilities that are opened up by the
implementation of ICT-support in our learning
environments. E-learning provides tools to adapt these
environments to the needs of an increasingly diverse
student-population. In the last part we focus
specifically on the workplace and how learning can be
designed in such a way that employees are equipped for a
shifting workplace.

both in terms of new products and new geographic markets.
The underlying motivation for centering the analysis on
the European Union-s market are manifold, reaching from
the evident concentration of exports - both in terms of
composition and markets- that Colombia still shows, to
the small amount of empirical studies analyzing the
current status and potentialities of the commercial
relations between Colombia and the European Union.

This book provides understanding about how this movement
is organized and the role of ports acting as gateways and
the actions of corridor players. A key question that
confronts the shipping and port industries as well as
public authorities is how to increase the benefits of
maritime trade to the companies and institutions directly
involved as well as the port city-regions where the
transfers take place? This question is being posed in the
midst of a global economic recession and trade downturn,
and in the context of contemporary policy frameworks
whose goals are to generate economic benefits and
efficiencies rather than to maximize traffic volumes.
This book puts into perspective the reality,
opportunities and challenges facing seaport gateways and
corridors now and in the future.

ISBN : 9780198071198.
388.095409051 HAL 134544
This collection of essays tells the inside story of
India-s infrastructure sector-where it is, where it
should be, and what is stopping it from getting there. It
weaves together political, institutional, and economic
threads into a comprehensive narrative to illustrate the
complexities involved in the provision of infrastructure.
Focusing on the problems of governance, it underscores
the dilemmas faced by policymakers in providing critical
infrastructure. The book also offers a nuanced portrayal
of the processes involved in the different stages, from

74 Higgins, Vaughan (ed)
Calculating the social : standards and the
reconfiguration of governing / Vaughan Higgins and Wendy
Larner.-- New York: Palgrave Macmillan, 2010.
xii, 227p. 22cm.
ISBN : 9780230579316.
389.6 HIG 134702
This book is the first of its kind to examine the
dynamics of standardization work, and the objects,
subjects and forms of governing to which this gives rise.
Drawing upon post-realist approaches of govern mentality
and actor network theory, contributors provide detailed
case studies which highlight how standards configure, and
are configured through, local practices, the complexity
of standardizing processes which contribute to
harmonization at the same time as creating distinction
and difference, and, the new forms of identity,
subjectivity and social organization that emerge through
standardizing work.

It is difficult to imagine an important thinker more
ideally suited to Writers and Readers- long-running For
Beginners series than Ferdinand de Saussure. Saussure-s
work is so powerful that it not only redefined modern
linguistics, it also opened our minds to new ways of
"doing" anthropology, literary criticism, and
psychoanalysis. Genius like Saussure-s is meant to be
shared, it is shameful to confine it to the "experts."
Unfortunately, unless you were a linguist, Saussure was
virtually unreadable. Until now. Saussure For Beginners
is a clear, accessible guide to one of the most
influential and difficult thinkers of the 20th century.
It is designed, both in look and language, to introduce
the lay reader to the brilliant, mystifying Saussure.

The book deals what is science, how is it performed and
is science only a method or is it also an institution.
These are questions at the core of Managing Science, a
handbook on how scientific research is conducted and its
results disseminated. Knowledge creation occurs through
scientific research in universities, industrial
laboratories, and government agencies. Any knowledge
management system needs to promote effective research
processes to foster innovation, and, ultimately, to
channel that innovation into economic competitiveness and
wealth. The book presents a holistic approach to science,
incorporating both philosophical and practical elements,
in a framework that integrates scientific method,
content, administration and application.

Because statistical confidentiality embraces the
responsibility for both protecting data and ensuring its
beneficial use for statistical purposes, those working
with personal and proprietary data can benefit from the
principles and practices this book presents. Researchers
can understand why an agency holding statistical data
does not respond well to the demand, "Just give me the
data, I-m only going to do good things with it."
Statisticians can incorporate the requirements of
statistical confidentiality into their methodologies for
data collection and analysis. Data stewards, caught
between those eager for data and those who worry about
confidentiality, can use the tools of statistical
confidentiality toward satisfying both groups.

This monograph focuses on the construction of regression
models with linear and non-linear constrains inequalities
from the theoretical point of view. Unlike previous
publications, this volume analyses the properties of
regression with inequality constrains, investigating the
flexibility of inequality constrains and their ability to
adapt in the presence of additional a priori information
the implementation of inequality constrains improves the
accuracy of models, and decreases the likelihood of
errors. Based on the obtained theoretical results, a
computational technique for estimation and
prognostication problems is suggested. This approach
lends itself to numerous applications in various
practical problems, several of which are discussed in
detail the book is useful resource for graduate students,
PhD students, and researchers who specialize in applied
statistics and optimization.

conditions and the role that knowledge management plays
in strategic planning and adaptation. Integrating the
literature from family business, entrepreneurship,
industrial psychology, and knowledge management, and with
illustrative examples from a variety of enterprises, the
authors address such topics as: how family businesses can
compete in the new knowledge economy, how to manage a
family business when knowledge is its main asset and how
to transfer knowledge (and how to keep it alive) through
family generations. Within this framework, the authors
argue that effective resource management--especially
intangible resources--is central to enabling a family-run
organization to maintain a sustainable competitive

The book deals intellectual capital as national asset.
Over the past decade, knowledge assets and intellectual
capital have been attracting an increasing amount of
attention, not only from academics and CEOs, but also
from national policy makers. To date, most studies of
intellectual capital have focused at the organizational
level, with an emphasis on explaining the role of
-intangible assets- as a differentiator between
accounting value and market value as a possible source of
corporate competitive advantage. This book serves to
present the authors- research findings, covering 14 years
of intellectual capital information, comprised of human
capital, market capital, renewal capital, and financial
capital for 40 countries. The last three chapters go
beyond analysis of current intellectual capital factors,
and present practical tools for launching initiatives at
the national level.

This book shows that affiliation with well-connected
people adds stability but no advantage to a person-s own
connections. Advantage is concentrated in people who are
themselves well connected. This book is a trail of
argument and evidence that leads to the conclusion that
individuals make a lot of their own network advantage.
The social psychology of networks moves to center stage
and personal responsibility emerges as a key theme. In
the end, the social is affirmed, but with an emphasis on
individual agency and the social psychology of networks.
The research gives new emphasis to Coleman-s initial
image of social capital as a forcing function for human
capital.

112 Longa, Remo Dalla (ed)
Urban Models and public-private partnership / Remo Dalla
Longa.-- Dordrecht: Springer, 2011.
vi,270p. 24 cm.
ISBN : 9783540705079.
711.40945 LON 132162
This book addresses the topic of urban models with
reference to large western cities and particularly to
global cities. In the current transitional phase, the use
of language and the systematization of phenomena has
become important. The book-s matrix examines two
important and strongly connected themes: urban models and
public-private partnerships (PPP) determined by urban
functions which are transformed in an increasingly rapid
and complex manner as a result of globalization. PPPs
represent the new border of the modern global state. The
book focuses on two principal urban models (renewal and
restructuring) through PPPs and subsequently the
relationship between state and market in fourteen Italian
cities (renewal) and two central European cities, Leipzig
and Budapest (restructuring).
