Download or read book La gran convergencia written by Richard Baldwin and published by Antoni Bosch editor. This book was released on 2017-12-07 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: En el siglo XIX la energía de vapor y la paz hicieron posible un movimiento internacional de bienes que llevó a los que hoy son países ricos a alcanzar la hegemonía: fue la Gran Divergencia. La nueva globalización, en cambio, está siendo impulsada por las tecnologías de la información, que han reducido radicalmente el coste del movimiento internacional de ideas. Las empresas multinacionales no solo trasladan el trabajo intensivo en mano de obra a los países en vías de desarrollo, sino también sus conocimientos. El resultado es la Gran Convergencia actual. Impulsada por el rápido cambio tecnológico y la fragmentación de la producción, los efectos de la globalización son ahora más repentinos, más selectivos, más impredecibles. Y plantea, tanto a los países ricos como a los países en vías de desarrollo, unos retos sin precedentes.

Download or read book New Technologies In Global Societies written by Pui-lam Law and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2006-08-24 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Technological advancements in the West since the last millennium have contributed to global modernity. Technologies set conditions for the closeness of the nation-states and for the affinity of the global and the local. They are also penetrating everyday life, and even sometimes the body, producing radical social changes. Yet, arguing that new technologies bring a new life and a promising future to global societies remains a questionable thesis.This book attempts to explore the relationship between new technologies and global societies, to gain an understanding of how the positive as well as negative influences of technologies bear on global societies, how their practices of use are resisted or re-interpreted by these societies, and how their social meaning is constituted through the process of negotiation with these societies. Part 1 is on science, technology, culture, and the body; Part 2 is on new media and generations, and Part 3 is on information and communication technologies (ICTs) and work.This book has been selected for coverage in:Index to Social Sciences & Humanities Proceedings® (ISSHP®/ISI Proceedings)Index to Social Sciences & Humanities Proceedings (ISSHP CDROM version/ISI Proceedings)

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first volume in a major new series, this book will be an essential read for all those who need to deal with the causes and consequences of rapid technological change in an increasingly globalized world, whether they be government policy-makers, managers of multi-national corporations, commentators on the international scene or specialists in and students of international politics, economics and business studies. The authors discuss three related areas: * How do we think about technology and international relations/international political economy? How does technology relate to competitiveness? How does it inlfuence our culture and how is it influenced by it? * In what sense is technology a fundamental component of national competitive advantage and what ought national, local and corporate policy to be in the light of this? * What is the relationship between technological innovation and global political and economic change? Technology is discussed not just in an instrumental sense - as a tool of power and an object of policy - but equally in a transcendental sense - as a key to shaping and structuring how we understand and interpret reality. The final section of the book presents case studies of three core sectors of the world political economy, finance , aviation and automobiles.

Download or read book Trends and Challenges in Science and Higher Education written by Hugo Horta and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-12-01 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book discusses the role that integrated science and higher education policies may play in further democratizing and promoting social-economic development in Latin America. It suggests that such democratizing and development may be achieved in two complementary ways: i) broadening the access to knowledge through formal learning processes of higher education, and ii) promoting the advanced qualification of people while strengthening research institutions. The book shows how this entails a complex process of policy integration, with an emphasis on human resources and institutional issues combined in processes of technical change. It discusses in detail the three main challenges that most Latin American countries face in a globalized age, based on knowledge and ever-evolving learning processes. These challenges are the need to broaden the access to higher education; to make this access more socially balanced; and to recover from a long gap in investing in knowledge production and dissemination. This book treats these issues from a variety of conceptual and methodological perspectives that present a contribution to the field of science policy and higher education studies, and inform policymakers in Latin America.
