Download or read book Seminal Studies in Regional and Urban Economics written by Roberta Capello and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-10-09 with total page 466 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book spans a scientific research program elegantly developed by Roberto Camagni, an eminent regional scientist, who has offered ground-breaking ideas in regional and urban economics throughout his academic career. In addition to bringing together a selection of Professor Camagni’s most influential works, the book presents syntheses and interpretations of his ideas by respected colleagues and by his students. In regional economics, space as territory, which plays an active role in innovation processes and in regional growth patterns; territorial capital as a synthetic concept of differentiated regional growth assets; and sources of regional competitiveness are only a few of the main ideas that emerged in regional economics thanks to this inspiring mind. In urban economics, he paved the way towards a new theoretical interpretation of the existence of the city and of its dynamics. His theory of city networks overcame the limits of Christaller’s and Lösch’s spatial approach to the city, with a solid economic conceptualization of spatial city network structures. All theories are accompanied by sound policy analysis, helping to contribute to the design and implementation of appropriate spatial policies at the European level.

Download or read book La Belle Cr ole written by Alina García-Lapuerta and published by Chicago Review Press. This book was released on 2014-09-01 with total page 333 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La Belle Créole re-creates the dramatic story of Cuba's earliest female author, the adventurous 19th-century countess nicknamed La Belle Créole: María de las Mercedes Santa Cruz y Montalvo, or Mercedes, and later the Comtesse Merlin. Alina García-Lapuerta draws from Mercedes' memoirs and letters and contemporary accounts to bring to life this Havana-born aristocrat who was years ahead of her time as a writer, socialite, salon host, and participant in the Cuban slavery debate. Eventually celebrated on both sides of the Atlantic, at age 13 headstrong young Mercedes was shipped off to live with her glamorous mother in Spain. Though political chaos blanketed Europe, Mercedes triumphed, charming aristocrats from all sides with her beauty and singing voice. She married General Merlin in Napoleon's army, watched her mother have an intimate affair with Joseph Bonaparte, and discussed painting with Goya. Arriving in Paris after the French defeat, Mercedes, one of the greatest amateur sopranos of her day, hosted the city's premier musical salon where Liszt, Rossini, and great divas performed for Rothschilds, Balzac, and royalty. Increasingly, she turned to her memoirs and travel writings, which have recently been rediscovered and, scholars agree, deserve a place in the canon of Latin American literature. Alina García-Lapuerta was born in Cuba and travels frequently to Miami and Cuba, retaining strong ties with her Cuban-based family and the Cuban American community. She holds a bachelor's degree in international economics from Georgetown University and a master's degree in international relations from Tufts University. She lives in London.
Download or read book Colours Commodities and the Birth of Globalization written by Carlos Marichal and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2024-08-22 with total page 203 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume explores the global history of natural dyes from the Americas and asks how their production and trade have shaped globalisation since early modern times. From their extraction and processing to their overseas trade, it shows how this commodity contributed to the rise of the textile industry and consumption in Europe, the United States and Latin America. In doing so, it sheds new light on the emergence of a global economy. Spanning several centuries, Colours, Commodities and the Birth of Globalization takes the reader from 1500 through the industrial revolutions of Europe and the United States and culminates in the synthetic age of the late-19th and early-20th centuries. Ranging from the indigo trade in the Atlantic to the secrets of the Indian production of cochineal, the chapters in this collection transcend nationally bounded historical narratives and explore transoceanic dynamics, imperial ambitions and the cross-cultural exchange of knowledge and techniques to better understand the birth of globalization.

Download or read book Freedom by a Thread written by Flavio Dos Santos Gomes and published by Diasporic Africa Press. This book was released on 2017-08-12 with total page 341 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Freedom by a Thread: The History of Quilombos in Brazil brings together some of the best scholars in the world working on the history of quilombos (maroon societies) in Brazil from a variety of perspectives and approaches. Over 40 percent of the total volume of captive Africans arrived in Brazil during a 400-year period of legal and contraband transatlantic slaving. If slavery penetrated every aspect of Brazilian life, so did resistance—and co-existence with it—in the form of small to large-scale quilombos. Palmares and the other quilombos built an exciting history of freedom. Yet, it is a history filled with traps and surprises, advances and setbacks, conflict and commitments, while advancing their immediate interests and more ambitious projects of liberty. These events and many others are part of the history told in this book.

Download or read book The City and Its Sciences written by Cristoforo S. Bertuglia and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 915 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent developments in the field of urban analysis and management are investigated in this book. It is a wide-ranging collection of essays on the subject drawn from a long-term project and seminar, held in Italy, to review the state of the art and speculate on the future influence on the "sciences of the city" of the complexity concept. Of particular interest is the variety of points of view, often contrasting, and the attempt to go beyond the conventional approaches to the analysis, and the planning of the city. While focussing mainly on the European (and in particular Italian) context, the discussion is of general relevance and valuable to anyone concerned with the prospects for the city in the new millenium.
Download or read book Unknown Values and Stakeholders written by Paolo D'Anselmi and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-02-13 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This second edition demonstrates that there are more conditions and actors prevalent in the economy than are considered today, and builds a balanced view of responsibility that would not be shunned by corporate executives. The wider economic responsibilities of organizations have been identified for corporations, and responsibility has been focused on business. Unknown Values and Stakeholders argues that all organizations, including public administration, should be accountable for their economic responsibilities. The authors reveal the unknown values and stakeholders of the accountability game and the new inequality in working conditions of the employed while, at the same time, showing a path towards effective economic development.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: El Diccionario de la Democracia contiene la teoría y la ideología de los regímenes democráticos: sus antecedentes; orígenes; principios; modalidades de deliberación y leyes; sus instituciones clave y variedades, acorde con la clase social que los dirija y el arreglo institucional correlativo. Asimismo compara sus principios, leyes e instituciones con otros regímenes, particularmente con sus opuestos, las oligarquías o gobiernos de pocos, pero también con la república, la tiranía y la realeza; las razones de Estado que permiten su conquista, conservación y estabilidad; las fuentes internas y externas que los amenazan; las maneras de corromperse y las revoluciones que los afectan. Trata también de los usos, costumbres y caracteres democráticos; inventaría los rasgos éticos de la vida democrática, por sí mismos y comprobados con los de los ricos, las clases medias y los tiranos, hasta detallar las relaciones que sostienen entre sí dirigentes y dirigidos, hombres y mujeres, viejos, jóvenes, maestros y alumnos, ciudadanos y animales..., por el impacto que la libertad e igualdad popular tienen en la vida pública y privada de sus pueblos. Parte medular del mismo es la exposición de las doctrinas, dogmas, leyes e instituciones del modelo liberal moderno de la democracia; un credo que se analiza en calidad de justificación del nouveau régime por parte de sus ideólogos modernos más destacados y lúcidos, quienes desvían el significado de las palabras ] democracia ] y ] liberal ] atribuidas sin más a los Estados modernos.
