World Development Report 1994
Author:
Publisher: World Bank Publications
ISBN: 9780195209921
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 268
Book Description
World Development Report 1994 examines the link between infrastructure and development and explores ways in which developing countries can improve both the provision and the quality of infrastructure services. In recent decades, developing countries have made substantial investments in infrastructure, achieving dramatic gains for households and producers by expanding their access to services such as safe water, sanitation, electric power, telecommunications, and transport. Even more infrastructure investment and expansion are needed in order to extend the reach of services - especially to people living in rural areas and to the poor. But as this report shows, the quantity of investment cannot be the exclusive focus of policy. Improving the quality of infrastructure service also is vital. Both quantity and quality improvements are essential to modernize and diversify production, help countries compete internationally, and accommodate rapid urbanization. The report identifies the basic cause of poor past performance as inadequate institutional incentives for improving the provision of infrastructure. To promote more efficient and responsive service delivery, incentives need to be changed through commercial management, competition, and user involvement. Several trends are helping to improve the performance of infrastructure. First, innovation in technology and in the regulatory management of markets makes more diversity possible in the supply of services. Second, an evaluation of the role of government is leading to a shift from direct government provision of services to increasing private sector provision and recent experience in many countries with public-private partnerships is highlighting new ways to increase efficiency and expand services. Third, increased concern about social and environmental sustainability has heightened public interest in infrastructure design and performance.

Manufacturing Morals
Author: Michel Anteby
Publisher: University of Chicago Press
ISBN: 022609250X
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 244
Book Description
Corporate accountability is never far from the front page, and as one of the world’s most elite business schools, Harvard Business School trains many of the future leaders of Fortune 500 companies. But how does HBS formally and informally ensure faculty and students embrace proper business standards? Relying on his first-hand experience as a Harvard Business School faculty member, Michel Anteby takes readers inside HBS in order to draw vivid parallels between the socialization of faculty and of students. In an era when many organizations are focused on principles of responsibility, Harvard Business School has long tried to promote better business standards. Anteby’s rich account reveals the surprising role of silence and ambiguity in HBS’s process of codifying morals and business values. As Anteby describes, at HBS specifics are often left unspoken; for example, teaching notes given to faculty provide much guidance on how to teach but are largely silent on what to teach. Manufacturing Morals demonstrates how faculty and students are exposed to a system that operates on open-ended directives that require significant decision-making on the part of those involved, with little overt guidance from the hierarchy. Anteby suggests that this model—which tolerates moral complexity—is perhaps one of the few that can adapt and endure over time. Manufacturing Morals is a perceptive must-read for anyone looking for insight into the moral decision-making of today’s business leaders and those influenced by and working for them.

Pour célébrer la centième Table Ronde d'économie des transports, la CEMT propose une publication exceptionnelle. Des contributions écrites ont été demandées à cinquante experts européens pour examiner les problèmes saillants rencontrés dans le passé par l'économie des transports, et surtout étudier ceux qui sont susceptibles d'apparaître à l'avenir. Quelles sont les principales difficultés auxquelles l'économie des transports est confrontée? Quelles sont les principales avancées de la pensée dans ce domaine? Comment ces avancées peuvent-elles contribuer à la résolution des problèmes? Que reste-t-il à faire? Les experts sollicités ont ensuite débattu librement des questions soulevées dans leurs contributions, qui vont des orientations stratégiques de la politique européenne des transports aux outils méthodologiques en passant par la situation des pays en transition, l'environnement, les transports intermodaux, les nouvelles technologies, les infrastructures, etc. Cette publication réunit l'ensemble des contributions écrites des experts et présente une synthèse complète de leurs débats.
