Book Description
A los 15 años, Aleksander se enfrenta a la violación de su madre. El joven no tuvo la oportunidad de elegir. Las leyes de su clan exigen, Gjakmarrja, una venganza que, pese a su corta edad, tendrá el deber de ejecutar. El fis Buzali comercia desde épocas remotas en el mercado negro, al margen de la ley. Aleksander sueña con algo más. Su ansia de poder y la necesidad de mostrar su valía ante su gente, le harán abandonar las remotas montañas del norte de Albania para comenzar a convivir con proxenetas y traficantes. A pesar de su juventud, irá escalando posiciones, hasta convertirse en uno de los mafiosos más poderosos del hampa internacional. Sus contactos con diferentes organizaciones criminales, su adiestramiento por una agencia oficial y amparado por el gobierno norteamericano, lo convertirán en un hombre intocable.

Publisher: Edward Elgar Publishing
ISBN: 1847204465
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 395
Book Description
. . . the book is an interesting collection of anecdotal evidence. . . the book makes for interesting reading, both from the point of view of case studies and in terms of empirical methodological applications. Silvia Grandi, Economic Geography Research Group This is a valuable book. The individual chapters contain original case-study evidence and analytical insights. . . it is one that should be consulted by any scholar working in the area if industrial agglomerations and new technology. Simona Iammarino, Economic Geography This book, a collaborative effort by researchers from Japan, Italy and the USA, seeks to explore the reasons for industrial clustering in certain regions of Asia, Europe and North America. The studies presented illustrate real examples of industrial clusters, adding anecdotal evidence to the emerging theory of economic geography by exemplifying the centripetal and centrifugal forces that regulate the clustering process. The authors examine clusters in a diverse set of countries including China, Italy, Japan, Mexico, South Korea, the USA and Vietnam. Significantly, the book provides an interesting split between studies of IT and software-related industries, and more traditional sectors, such as steel and vehicle manufacturing. Industrial Agglomeration and New Technologies pays attention to a varied array of factors that influence clustering, such as knowledge spillovers, tacit knowledge, communication and transport costs, and the effects of various government policies. The case studies provide useful examples for government and industry leaders, as well as a starting point for researchers seeking an ultimate answer to the question: Why do firms form clusters?

Shanghai Sacred
Author: Benoît Vermander
Publisher: University of Washington Press
ISBN: 0295741694
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 325
Book Description
Shanghai, a dynamic world metropolis, is home to a multitude of religions, from Buddhism and Islam, to Christianity and Baha’ism, to Hinduism and Daoism, and many more. In this city of 24 million inhabitants, new religious groups and older faiths together claim and reclaim spiritual space. Shanghai Sacred explores the spaces, rituals, and daily practices that make up the religious landscape of the city, offering a new paradigm for the study of Chinese spirituality that reflects the global trends shaping Chinese culture and civil society. Based on years of fieldwork, incorporating both comparative and methodological perspectives, Shanghai Sacred demonstrates how religions are lived, constructed, and thus inscribed into the social imaginary of the metropolis. Evocative photographs by Liz Hingley enrich and interact with the narrative, making the book an innovative contribution to religious visual ethnography.
