Download or read book La nouvelle politique conomique written by Philippe Chantepie and published by Presses Universitaires de France. This book was released on 1997-01-01 with total page 461 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Quel rôle l'Etat français et ses politiques économiques peuvent-ils encore jouer dans l'économie mondiale qui émerge ? Le modèle français a-t-il encore du sens, le service public un avenir ? Ces questions d'actualité se posent particulièrement à tous ceux qui envisagent d'entrer dans la fonction publique et se préparent aux concours administratifs (ENA, Banque de France, Assemblées parlementaires, etc.), ainsi qu'aux étudiants des IEP et des IRA. Ils trouveront dans cet ouvrage : - un rappel historique du rôle économique de l'Etat depuis la seconde Guerre Mondiale - une analyse détaillée des politiques économiques qu'il mène actuellement - une réflexion approfondie sur les défis que doit affronter aujourd'hui l'Etat - de nombreuses dissertations sur des sujets susceptibles de tomber aux concours administratifs - les connaissances de politique économique indispensables à la compréhension des politiques économiques - l'actualisation nécessaire à la réflexion sur la politique économique contemporaine de la France - les principaux enjeux qui permettent de penser la relation entre l'Etat et la nouvelle économie mondiale. Croisant l'expérience de l'enseignement et la variété des points de vue les mieux informés - universitaires, observateurs, commentateurs ou conseillers -, les auteurs ont choisi d'offrir un panorama clair et complet des politiques économiques, qui s'inscrit comme le complément nécessaire des manuels de politique économique.

Book L   tat face    la globalisation   conomique

Download or read book L tat face la globalisation conomique written by Geert Demuijnck and published by Editions du Sandre. This book was released on 2009 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Depuis le 19e siècle, le rôle et l'importance de l'Etat ont connu une profonde évolution. Celle-ci, partant d'une conception de l'Etat assez étroite, assez proche, somme toute, de la vision Hegelienne, s'est progressivement élargie, évoluant vers une institution complexe et omniprésente dans les différents aspects de la vie quotidienne des citoyens : l'Etat-Providence. Le phénomène de mondialisation/globalisation n'a pas manqué d'affecter en profondeur le rôle de l'Etat, non seulement dans les domaines politique et économique, l'acteur étatique étant interpellé dans ces deux domaines, tant sur la scène internationale que sur la scène interne, envers les citoyens. Ainsi, la réflexion sur la globalisation attire irrésistiblement le débat vers la question de la gouvernance. Face à l'affaiblissement, l'érosion ou l'assujettissement de l'Etat par rapport à un processus de globalisation qui le dépasse, certains proposent des formes alternatives de gouvernance. Dans ce contexte, le débat sur le rôle de l'acteur étatique se déploie principalement autour de trois axes. Un premier axe explore la piste d'un ordre politique avec moins d'Etat, voire la substitution de ce dernier par d'autres acteurs plus efficients. Un deuxième axe prône, au contraire, plus d'Etat pour faire contrepoids à des mouvements qui portent atteinte à la cohésion sociale. Un troisième axe, plus nuancé, conçoit l'Etat autrement, comme une instance politique à redéfinir dans sa raison d'être et ses fonctions. Il importe dès lors de réfléchir sur des formes alternatives de ce qu'on appelle désormais "gouvernance". Le présent ouvrage regroupe des travaux de politologues, philosophes, juristes et sociologues sur cette évolution de la conception et du rôle de l'Etat, ainsi que sur la conception alternative souvent avancée de la gouvernante, dans le contexte nouveau d'une globalisation, souvent présentée comme primordialement économique.

Book La globalisation  le droit et l   tat

Download or read book La globalisation le droit et l tat written by Jean-Bernard Auby and published by . This book was released on 2003 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: De même que la croissance du commerce international déplace les espaces économiques, de même que le développement des médias internationaux estompe les frontières culturelles et idéologiques, de même la globalisation s'empare du droit et provoque en lui des phénomènes de brassage, d'interconnexion, de transversalité... qui transforment sa morphologie. Dans la globalisation juridique, les hiérarchies normatives deviennent plus complexes. La répartition des rôles entre droit international et droit interne devient moins claire, et le contenu de la distinction entre droit public et droit privé tend à se modifier. L'Etat partage avec d'autres acteurs, publics ou privés, la fonction de production des normes : sa maîtrise sur le droit décline de manière générale. La globalisation juridique est un défi à la centralité juridique de l'Etat, à la territorialité du droit, voire à la différenciation des systèmes juridiques nationaux. La globalisation perturbe les catégories dans lesquelles nous sommes accoutumés à classer les réalités juridiques. Elle transforme les pratiques du droit, comme notre rapport aux droits étrangers. Elle réclame de nouvelles avancées théoriques, susceptibles de rendre compte du pluralisme de sa structure et de son fonctionnement en réseau.

  • Author : Frederick Cooper

Download or read book Colonialism in Question written by Frederick Cooper and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2005-06-06 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Probably the most important historian of Africa currently writing in the English language. His intellectual reach and ambition have even taken influence far beyond African studies as such, and he has become one of the major voices contributing to debates over empire, colonialism and their aftermaths. This book is a call to reinvigorate the critical way in which history can be written. Cooper takes on many of the standard beliefs passing as postcolonial theory and breathes fresh air onto them."—Michael Watts, Director of the Institute of International Studies, Berkeley "This is a very much needed book: on Africa, on intellectual artisanship and on engagement in emancipatory projects. Drawing on his enormous erudition in colonial history, Cooper brings together an intellectual and a moral-political argument against a series of linked developments that privilege 'taking a stance' and in favor of studying processes of struggle through engaged scholarship."—Jane I. Guyer, author of Marginal Gains

Book France and European Integration

Download or read book France and European Integration written by Michel R. Gueldry and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2001-05-30 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gueldry analyzes the substantive transformations brought upon the French state by European integration through an incremental and cumulative process generally described as Europeanization. This restructuring is characterized by the erosion of traditional political and economic parameters, the emergence of new means and models of public action, and a general paradigmatic redefinition, including a search for renewed political legitimacy by French elite. Covering the period from 1957 to the present, Gueldry examines how regional integration affects French governmental structures, public policies, political processes, and culture. He emphasizes the post-Single European Act (February 1986) period because of the accelerating momentum of the integration process after this milestone treaty. Students, scholars, and policy makers involved with EU history, institutions, and policies will be particularly interested in the work.

Book The Commons

  • Author : Stéphanie Leyronas
  • Publisher : World Bank Publications
  • Release : 2023-06-28
  • ISBN : 1464819920
  • Pages : 283 pages

Download or read book The Commons written by Stéphanie Leyronas and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2023-06-28 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'The Commons' explores the many forms of development being championed by Africa's residents, users, and citizens. In addition to managing property and shared tangible and intangible resources collectively, communities are experimenting with a concept of 'commoning' founded on values such as community, engagement, reciprocity, and trust. In practice, their approach takes the form of land-based commons, housing cooperatives, hybrid cultural spaces or places for innovation, and collaborative digital platforms. The purpose of this book, where observation of historical and recent practices converges with new theories within commons scholarship, is not to promote commons themselves. Rather, it examines the tensions, drivers of change, and opportunities that surround commons dynamics in Africa. This book highlights the abundance of commons-based entrepreneurial processes in Sub-Saharan Africa and shows that partnerships between African public authorities and communities involved in the commons can be powerful drivers of sustainable development for the continent.

Book Ethics and Justice    thique et justice

Download or read book Ethics and Justice thique et justice written by Peter Kemp and published by LIT Verlag Münster. This book was released on 2017 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The main theme of volume 6 of Eco-ethica is "Ethics and Justice" which focuses on the idea of "justice" in a metaphysical, social, and personal sense. Justice is considered as a balance between opposite ambitions in interdependent persons, and as equity in legislation, but not as blind justice. Today it is valuable not only on the national, but also on the cosmopolitan level. Before it became personal justice, the idea of justice was considered metaphysical and social, both in European and Chinese culture. However, in modern times, it is often reduced to a moral duty without meta-ethical responsibility. The last section considers the importance of the philosophy of Paul Ricoeur (1913-2005) for clarifying the idea of justice. (Series: Eco-Ethica, Vol. 6) [Subject: Philosophy, Ethics]

Book Breaking the Ice Briser la Glace

Download or read book Breaking the Ice Briser la Glace written by Association of Canadian Universities for Northern Studies and published by Canadian Circumpolar Institute. This book was released on 2004 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Topics range from fossil remnants on Axel Heiberg Island to collaborative tourism planning in the Yukon; from the influence of sea-ice and ocean circulation on arctic climate, to the differences between Inuit healing and western medicine. Yet, there is a common thread that links all of these papers. It is a place. It is the North. The importance of such a perspective is often lost in an academic world that rewards specialization by emphasizing expertise in a narrow field. But the boundaries between disciplines are becoming more and more artificial in an increasingly complex and interconnected world. An interdisciplinary approach built on 'place' provided a platform from which researchers could transcend these boundaries. The ACUNS conference, and by extension, these proceedings, helps 'break the ice'. Includes papers by Marni Amirault, Donna L. Atkinson, Johanna Bergé, Nilgun Cetin, Paul G. Myers, Suzanne de la Barre, Vasiliki Douglas, Audrey R. Giles, Sarah Giles, Brenda Guernsey, Joanna Kafarowski, Gita J. Laidler, Francis Levesque, Patrick T. Maher, Andrew C. L. Postnikoff, James F. Basinger, J. M. Ross, Michelle Schlag, Anne-Pascale Targé, Mariana Trindade, David Greene, Mike Gravel. Extended abstracts by Anna Dabros, Marcia J. Waterway, Colleen M. Davison, Ekaterina Evseeva, Patrick Faubert, Harri Vasander, Line Rochefort, Eeva-Stiina Tuittila, Jukka Laine, Ulrik Pram Gad, D.C. Hardie, J.A. Hutchings, Ioana Radu, Frank J. Sowa, Reid A.

Book France Encounters Globalization

Download or read book France Encounters Globalization written by Peter Karl Kresl and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2002-01-01 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'There is much of interest here, and the authors provide background information and digressions that make their analysis more accessible to noneconomists.' - M. Veseth, Choice This book is the first in English to comprehensively examine the French economy and how it is adjusting to the exigencies of an increasingly globalized environment. The opening of the French market to international competition has forced recent governments to realize that the old closed model in which France had considerable autonomy over policy is no longer valid. French solutions to domestic problems had to be given up in the early 1980s. Changes in technology have had dramatic impacts on the comparative advantage of French producers and the necessary restructuring has been far from easy. These twin aspects of globalization have also altered the situation of France's various regions and urban economies and the highly centralized structure has come under pressure. This has forced a change in the thinking of French public and private sector leaders. The role of the state, the degree of intervention, the extent of control over the domestic economy, and the need to be accommodating to market forces have all been subject to public debate and to fundamental reconsideration. While this is a book on the French economy, Kresl and Gallais deal with issues, challenges, and processes of change and adaptation that are facing all of Europe, and indeed all industrialized economies.
