  • Author : Caroline Andrew
  • Publisher : University of Ottawa Press
  • Release : 2010-10-27
  • ISBN : 0776618695
  • Pages : 404 pages

Download or read book Gilles Paquet written by Caroline Andrew and published by University of Ottawa Press. This book was released on 2010-10-27 with total page 404 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume explores and contextualizes the contributions of Gilles Paquet as a social scientist. A quintessential public intellectual, Gilles Paquet's long and multifaceted career has shown him to be a thinker of significant power and creativity. This self-described "homo hereticus"--always critical and sometimes controversial--has influenced scholars and policy makers in Canada and around the globe. The contributors reveal how his assessments of economics, politics, public administration, and education have stirred their minds and helped them make sense of the world around them. The volume also provides comments on Paquet's vision of governance, touching on concepts of which he has made extensive use: meso-analysis, social learning, and moral contracts.

Book The Reception of David Ricardo in Continental Europe and Japan

Download or read book The Reception of David Ricardo in Continental Europe and Japan written by Gilbert Faccarello and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-02-03 with total page 309 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a coherent and unique collection of chapters exploring the reception and diffusion of David Ricardo’s writings in different languages. The book highlights the similarities and differences between them. This book seeks to delineate the diffusion of Ricardo's theory in various parts of Europe and Japan. While there may have been case studies about the reception of Ricardo’s thoughts for several countries, there has not yet been a systematic study of the diffusion process under consideration as a whole. This book caters to all scholars dedicated to the history of economic thought and to students who are interested to learn about the peculiarities of the evolution of economic theories in different countries. This book is the first of its kind, with no known predecessor, and it aims to shed light on how and why some of Ricardo’s writings were picked up and why others were not. Given Ricardo’s importance in the field of economics, the book will be of interest to many.

Book Vital Minimum

    Book Details:
  • Author : Dana Simmons
  • Publisher : University of Chicago Press
  • Release : 2015-07-13
  • ISBN : 022625156X
  • Pages : 250 pages

Download or read book Vital Minimum written by Dana Simmons and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2015-07-13 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How much food, air, space, water, and various consumer goods are necessary to sustain productive life? "Vital Minimum: Life and Need in Modern France "is an ambitious history of attempts to define and quantify what we need, at bare minimum, to live and work. It uncovers the profound influence of science on modern France s reproduction of labor and the social order. Agronomists, chemists, anthropologists, economists, sociologists, and amateur data gatherers all believed that social organization, and particularly the circulation of goods, should be actively directed according to scientific principles, which they attempted to articulate by grounding a study of human needs on quantifiable foundations. Science, they all held, would mitigate market exchange. Ultimately the science of need formed the core of social policy, coming to fruition after World War II with the welfare state. Dana Simmons shows howeven though it could not establish a satisfactory and stable measure of needs to shore up enduring legislationa science of welfare preceded and undergirded the modern welfare state."

Book The Contemporary Arab Contribution to World Culture

Download or read book The Contemporary Arab Contribution to World Culture written by Magdi Youssef and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2018-07-27 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book comprises a selection of papers delivered at a research meeting of the International Association of Intercultural Studies (IAIS) which took place in Paris in March, 2009. As suggested by its title, it addresses prejudices prevailing not only in Western societies, but also in marginalized ones, especially among their Western-oriented intelligentsia. It is often claimed that there exists no ‘serious’ contribution to world culture that is not based on the Western models that prevail worldwide, especially in the aftermath of globalization. This book challenges the projected image of a dominant West serving as a necessary and indispensable model for a dependent, receptive ‘rest of the world.’ It can be read as a necessary decolonization of today’s human knowledge in all disciplines by taking as an example recent Arab contributions in many areas of human knowledge, from the natural sciences to the political economy or architecture. Other marginalized socio-cultures worldwide, like those of Africa, India, Thailand, Persia, and Ireland, should follow suit in presenting an alternative to the extant globalization of Western norms, by offering a truly equal open exchange of human inventions on a world scale.

Book French Liberalism in the 19th Century

Download or read book French Liberalism in the 19th Century written by Robert Leroux and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-05-04 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Political and economic liberalism has generally been considered to be of marginal import in France, but at an intellectual level, it is a different story. An exploration of the history of French economic thought shows how a rich intellectual tradition developed during the nineteenth century, which has been previously neglected in English language studies of French thinking. In this important new collection, Robert Leroux brings together key works, both from widely regarded and lesser known authors, whose thinking constituted the core of a singular intellectual movement. These include such figures as Charles Dunoyer, Joseph Garnier, Gustave de Molinari, Yves Guyot, Alexis de Tocqueville, Benjamin Constant and Frédéric Bastiat. Including several works that have never before been published in English, this anthology begins with a full introduction that provides an overview of liberal thought in the nineteenth century, and each text is preceded by a biographical note on the author, and an explanation of the wider significance of the text. This anthology, by bringing to the fore a number of writers and doctrinal positions, seeks to give a coherence, an overall cast to French liberalism without exaggerating its unity. It will be of interest to economists, political scientists, historians, philosophers and sociologists alike.
