World Development Report 2009
Author: World Bank
Publisher: World Bank Publications
ISBN: 082137608X
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 410
Book Description
Rising densities of human settlements, migration and transport to reduce distances to market, and specialization and trade facilitated by fewer international divisions are central to economic development. The transformations along these three dimensions density, distance, and division are most noticeable in North America, Western Europe, and Japan, but countries in Asia and Eastern Europe are changing in ways similar in scope and speed. 'World Development Report 2009: Reshaping Economic Geography' concludes that these spatial transformations are essential, and should be encouraged. The conclusion is not without controversy. Slum-dwellers now number a billion, but the rush to cities continues. Globalization is believed to benefit many, but not the billion people living in lagging areas of developing nations. High poverty and mortality persist among the world's 'bottom billion', while others grow wealthier and live longer lives. Concern for these three billion often comes with the prescription that growth must be made spatially balanced. The WDR has a different message: economic growth is seldom balanced, and efforts to spread it out prematurely will jeopardize progress. The Report: documents how production becomes more concentrated spatially as economies grow. proposes economic integration as the principle for promoting successful spatial transformations. revisits the debates on urbanization, territorial development, and regional integration and shows how today's developers can reshape economic geography.

How Social Movements Die
Author: Christian Davenport
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 1316194701
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 367
Book Description
How do social movements die? Some explanations highlight internal factors like factionalization, whereas others stress external factors like repression. Christian Davenport offers an alternative explanation where both factors interact. Drawing on organizational, as well as individual-level, explanations, Davenport argues that social movement death is the outgrowth of a coevolutionary dynamic whereby challengers, influenced by their understanding of what states will do to oppose them, attempt to recruit, motivate, calm, and prepare constituents while governments attempt to hinder all of these processes at the same time. Davenport employs a previously unavailable database that contains information on a black nationalist/secessionist organization, the Republic of New Africa, and the activities of authorities in the US city of Detroit and state and federal authorities.

Dare to Lead
Author: Anil K Khandelwal
Publisher: SAGE Publications Pvt. Limited
ISBN: 9788132111016
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 480
Book Description
Dare to Lead is a rare story of leadership that produced dramatic business results through a multifaceted reform and transformation program. Narrated in a lucid manner by the author, who was the CEO of Bank of Baroda (BOB) for a tenure of three years, the book explores the trials, tribulations, joys, challenges and excitement in transforming a leading 97-year-old public sector bank into a modern, tech-savvy 21st century customer-centric bank. The book provides a blue print for undertaking transformation in large, geographically dispersed public sector enterprises. Emphasizing that large-scale transformation can be undertaken successfully if the CEO shows courage to change the status quo and mobilize the human effort in the organization, the book shows that sustainable transformation is all about laying foundations of intangibles such as leadership, people processes, branding, technology and customer-centric processes.

The WEB of Transport Corridors in South Asia
Author: Asian Development Bank;JICA;UKAID;World Bank
Publisher: World Bank Publications
ISBN: 1464812160
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 403
Book Description
The WEB of Transport Corridors in South Asia develops a holistic appraisal methodology to ensure that economic benefits of investments in transport corridors are amplified and more widely spread, and possible negative impacts such as congestion, environmental degradation, and other unintended consequences are minimized. It focuses on South Asia—not only as one of the world’s most populous and poorest regions—but as a hinge between East Asia, Central Asia, the Middle East, and Europe. The book is aimed at politicians, technocrats, civil society organizations, and businesses. It presents case studies of past and recent corridor initiatives, provides rigorous analysis of the literature on the spatial impact of corridors, and offers assessments of corridor investment projects supported by international development organizations. A series of spotlights examines such issues as private sector co-investment; the impacts of corridors on small enterprises and women; and issues with implementing cross-border corridors. The 'WEB' in the title stands for both the wider economic benefits (WEB) that transport corridors are expected to generate and the complex web of transport corridors that has been proposed. The appraisal methodology introduced in this book shows how the web of interconnected elements around corridors can be disentangled and the most promising corridor proposals—the ones with the greatest wider economic benefits—can be selected.
