Download or read book Une br ve histoire conomique d un long XXe si cle written by Philippe Chalmin and published by Les Pérégrines. This book was released on 2019-02-21T00:00:00+01:00 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Avec les premiers coups de canon daoût 1914 se termine le XIXe siècle. Ses dernières décennies avaient été le théâtre dune première « mondialisation », marquée par une liberté à peu près complète de circulation des hommes, des marchandises et des capitaux. Au tournant du XXIe siècle, en 2001, ladhésion de la Chine à lOrganisation mondiale du commerce symbolise un temps nouveau de mondialisation, plus limité et peut-être tout aussi fragile. Entre ces deux temps forts, le monde a connu des guerres et des crises, la tentation du repli sur soi et lillusion communiste, mais aussi des avancées majeures permettant de répondre au choc démographique de la deuxième partie du siècle. Dune mondialisation à lautre, lhistoire économique de ce long XXe siècle est surtout celle de la recherche, jamais achevée, de léquilibre entre croissance et justice sociale.

Book Une  petite  histoire de l   conomie

Download or read book Une petite histoire de l conomie written by Niall Kishtainy and published by De Boeck Superieur. This book was released on 2019-06-17 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Un récit vivant et attrayant de l’histoire de l’économie, relatée à travers ses événements marquants de l’Antiquité à nos jours et les idées des grands penseurs de la discipline. À quoi est due la pauvreté ? Les crises économiques sont-elles inévitables dans le système capitaliste ? L’intervention de l’État dans l’économie est-elle bénéfique ou désastreuse ? Les réponses à ces questions basiques d’économie concernent tout le monde, mais le jargon et les mathématiques hermétiques de la science économique peuvent sembler rébarbatifs. Ce livre clair, accessible et non dénué d’humour est idéal pour les jeunes lecteurs découvrant la science économique comme pour tous ceux qui souhaitent mieux comprendre toute l’étendue de son histoire et de ses idées. L’historien de l’économie Niall Kishtainy organise chronologiquement de courts chapitres consacrés aux principales notions et événements cruciaux. Il relate les contributions de penseurs clés tels qu’Adam Smith, David Ricardo, Karl Marx, John Maynard Keynes et bien d’autres, tout en explorant des sujets qui vont de l’invention de la monnaie à la Grande Dépression, en passant par l’apparition de la société agraire, l’entrepreneuriat, la destruction de l’environnement, les inégalités et l’économie comportementale. Il en résulte un ouvrage unique qui parvient avec brio à mettre en lumière les concepts économiques et les forces qui façonnent notre monde.

Book Le Qu  bec  Gen  se et mutations du territoire  Synth  se de g  ographie hitorique

Download or read book Le Qu bec Gen se et mutations du territoire Synth se de g ographie hitorique written by Serge Courville and published by UBC Press. This book was released on 2009-01-01 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this richly documented work, Serge Courville tells the geographical history of Quebec from the appearance of the first humans through to the present day. This detailed and erudite book maps major stages of Quebec’s development, providing a geographical record of the many social relationships that over time created a sense of place. Landscape, Courville shows, is the keeper of memory, the record of successive changes, and a witness to the genesis of the new. Places that were once agricultural, then left to waste and ruin, are today revivified by tourism. Areas that now house office buildings were long ago open playgrounds where children ruled. Drawing on vast research, Courville shows how, in spite of the turbulence Quebec often endures – or perhaps because of it – the land itself may be seen as an important participant in the history of its peoples. Quebec: A Historical Geography was originally published by Les Presses de l’Université Laval as Le Québec: Genèses et mutations du territoire.

  • Publisher : McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP
  • Release : 2021-04-01
  • ISBN : 0228006961
  • Pages : 160 pages

Download or read book What Ails France written by Brigitte Granville and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 2021-04-01 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As evidenced by the yellow vests protest movement that began in France in 2018, the state of the French nation inspires gloom among many of its citizens. Brigitte Granville views this malaise as a peculiarly French symptom of the difficulties experienced by many advanced industrial democracies in the face of globalization, technology, and mass immigration. Granville brings trenchant criticism to bear in this wide-ranging survey of the political economy of contemporary France, building her case for the prosecution on the self-reinforcing rigidity produced by a narrow Parisian oligarchy that is both entitled and intellectually hidebound. What Ails France? applies an economist's vision to the monetary and fiscal pathologies flowing from this ideologically motivated technocratic rule, reflected in Europe's flawed monetary union, runaway indebtedness, and chronically high structural unemployment. The author marshals academic research from a wide range of disciplines to fuel a provocative and at times contentious analysis, proposing various treatments for French ailments that would reinvigorate the republican value of liberté with a new local slant. A refreshing, ideologically freewheeling discussion, What Ails France? provides a positive take on the innovations of our digital age, exploring their potential to bring about a more representative democracy and a fairer society.

Book A Social Laboratory for Modern France

Download or read book A Social Laboratory for Modern France written by Janet R. Horne and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2002-01-11 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a nineteenth-century think tank that sought answers to France’s pressing “social question,” the Musée Social reached across political lines to forge a reformist alliance founded on an optimistic faith in social science. In A Social Laboratory for Modern France Janet R. Horne presents the story of this institution, offering a nuanced explanation of how, despite centuries of deep ideological division, the French came to agree on the basic premises of their welfare state. Horne explains how Musée founders believed—and convinced others to believe—that the Third Republic would carry out the social mission of the French Revolution and create a new social contract for modern France, one based on the rights of citizenship and that assumed collective responsibility for the victims of social change. Challenging the persistent notion of the Third Republic as the stagnant backwater of European social reform, Horne instead depicts the intellectually sophisticated and progressive political culture of a generation that laid the groundwork for the rise of a hybrid welfare system, characterized by a partnership between private agencies and government. With a focus on the cultural origins of turn-of-the-century thought—including religion, republicanism, liberalism, solidarism, and early sociology—A Social Laboratory for Modern France demonstrates how French reformers grappled with social problems that are still of the utmost relevance today and how they initiated a process that gave the welfare state the task of achieving social cohesion within an industrializing republic.

Book Methods for Multilevel Analysis and Visualisation of Geographical Networks

Download or read book Methods for Multilevel Analysis and Visualisation of Geographical Networks written by Céline Rozenblat and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-06-03 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This leading-edge study focuses on the latest techniques in analysing and representing the complex, multi-layered data now available to geographers studying urban zones and their populations. The volume tracks the successful results of the SPANGEO Project, which was set up in 2005 to standardize, and share, the syncretic, multinational mapping techniques already developed by geographers and computer scientists. SPANGEO sought new and responsive ways of visualising urban geographical and social data that reflected the fine-grained detail of the inputs. It allowed for visual representation of the large and complex networks and flows which are such an integral feature of the dynamism of urban geography. SPANGEO developed through the ‘visual analytics loop’ in which geographers collaborated with computer scientists by feeding data into the design of visualisations that in turn spawned the urge to incorporate more varied data into the visualisation. This volume covers all the relevant aspects, from conceptual principles to the tools of network analysis and the actual results flowing from their deployment. Detailed case studies set out in this volume include spatial multi-level analyses of flows in airports and sea ports, as well as the fascinating scientific networks in European cities. The volume shows how the primary concern of geography—the interaction of society with physical space—has been revivified by the complexities of new cartographical and statistical methodologies, which allow for highly detailed mapping and far more powerful computer analysis of spatial relationships.

Book Consumer Chronicles

Download or read book Consumer Chronicles written by David H. Walker and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2011 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At a time when the world is facing the depletion of nonrenewable natural resources, consumer society is increasingly being called into question. Nowhere is this more evident than in France, where the consumer revolution has long been perceived as a challenge to artisanal crafts, local business, and other key elements of French culture. David H. Walker here charts the portrayal of consumer behavior in the works of Gide, Zola, Jean Valmy-Basse, and Elsa Triolet and analyzes these testimonies in relation to their social, cultural and historical milieu. Consumer Chronicles offers an imaginative look at the impact of affluence on French consumers, shopkeepers, and society and provides valuable insight into the history of the consumer mentality in the twentieth century.

Book Lecture Economique de l Histoire du Japon

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cet ouvrage s’adresse aux étudiants suivant un programme d’études en langue ou commerce japonais, ou encore au lecteur averti intéressé par l’Histoire et l’Economie du Japon. Le Japon de 2014 se trouve à la croisée de nombreux défis de taille, qui sont abordés succinctement en fin de livre. Trois ans après le « tsunami » meurtrier de la région de « Tohoku », où en est le processus de reconstruction ? Le nucléaire va-t-il être remplacé par les Energies Renouvelables ? Comment le pays va-t-il faire face aux défis démographiques ? Le Japon est-il toujours un pays Innovateur ? En préparant un cours, l’auteur s’est aperçu qu’il y avait, surtout en langue anglaise, assez bien de livres sur l’Histoire et l'Economie du Japon en général, surtout après 1945, mais très... Plus > peu de livres récents se concentrant sur une lecture (purement) économique de l’Histoire entière du Japon. Malheureusement, il y a encore moins de choix en langue française. D’où, sans doute, la pertinence de cet ouvrage! Keywords: Japan, Japon, Economie du Japon, Japanese Economy, Histoire du Japon, Japanese History, Lecture Economique, Histoire Economique, Economic History, Commercer avec le Japon, Doing Business with Japan, Commercer au Japon, Doing Business in Japan, Faire des Affaires au Japon, Emploi à vie, Life Employment, Innovation au Japon, les Japonais, the Japanese

Book A Brief History of the Future

Download or read book A Brief History of the Future written by Jacques Attali and published by Skyhorse. This book was released on 2011-07-01 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What will planet Earth be like in twenty years? At mid-century? In the year 2100? Prescient and convincing, this book is a must-read for anyone concerned about the future. Never has the world offered more promise for the future and been more fraught with dangers. Attali anticipates an unraveling of American hegemony as transnational corporations sever the ties linking free enterprise to democracy. World tensions will be primed for horrific warfare for resources and dominance. The ultimate question is: Will we leave our children and grandchildren a world that is not only viable but better, or in this nuclear world bequeath to them a planet that will be a living hell? Either way, he warns, the time to act is now.
