The future ain’t what it used to be
Author: Díaz-Bonilla, Eugenio
Publisher: Intl Food Policy Res Inst
ISBN:
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 14
Book Description
In this paper I focus only on medium- to long-term trends for economic growth, considering first the global historical experience and discussing then projections for future growth utilized in some important exercises of prospective. A conclusion is that many projections suggest further acceleration of world economic growth at levels that do not seem to be in line with historical experience. This paper then speculates about possible reasons for that discrepancy.

We AinÕt What We Ought To Be
Author: Stephen Tuck
Publisher: Harvard University Press
ISBN: 0674062299
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 529
Book Description
In this exciting revisionist history, Stephen Tuck traces the black freedom struggle in all its diversity, from the first years of freedom during the Civil War to President ObamaÕs inauguration. As it moves from popular culture to high politics, from the Deep South to New England, the West Coast, and abroad, Tuck weaves gripping stories of ordinary black peopleÑas well as celebrated figuresÑinto the sweep of racial protest and social change. The drama unfolds from an armed march of longshoremen in postÐCivil War Baltimore to Booker T. WashingtonÕs founding of Tuskegee Institute; from the race riots following Jack JohnsonÕs Òfight of the centuryÓ to Rosa ParksÕ refusal to move to the back of a Montgomery bus; and from the rise of hip hop to the journey of a black Louisiana grandmother to plead with the Tokyo directors of a multinational company to stop the dumping of toxic waste near her home. We AinÕt What We Ought To Be rejects the traditional narrative that identifies the Southern non-violent civil rights movement as the focal point of the black freedom struggle. Instead, it explores the dynamic relationships between those seeking new freedoms and those looking to preserve racial hierarchies, and between grassroots activists and national leaders. As Tuck shows, strategies were ultimately contingent on the power of activists to protest amidst shifting economic and political circumstances in the U.S. and abroad. This book captures an extraordinary journey that speaks to all AmericansÑboth past and future.
