Recoding America Why Government Is Failing in the Digital Age and How We Can Do Better【電子書籍】[ Jennifer Pahlka ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><strong>Named one of NPR's Best Books of 2023</strong><br /> <strong>Named one of Ezra Klein's "Books That Explain Where We Are in 2023," <em>The New York Times</em></strong></p> <p><strong>Learn more about</strong> **Jennifer Pahlka's work at recodingamerica.us.</p> <p>“The book I wish every policymaker would read.”**<br /> **ー**<strong>Ezra Klein, <em>The New York Times</em></strong></p> <p><strong>A bold call to reexamine how our government operatesーand sometimes fails to</strong>**ー**<strong>from President Obama’s former deputy chief technology officer and the founder of Code for America</strong></p> <p>Just when we most need our government to workーto decarbonize our infrastructure and economy, to help the vulnerable through a pandemic, to defend ourselves against global threatsーit is faltering. Government at all levels has limped into the digital age, offering online services that can feel even more cumbersome than the paperwork that preceded them and widening the gap between the policy outcomes we intend and what we get.</p> <p>But it’s not more money or more tech we need. Government is hamstrung by a rigid, industrial-era culture, in which elites dictate policy from on high, disconnected from and too often disdainful of the details of implementation. Lofty goals morph unrecognizably as they cascade through a complex hierarchy. But there is an approach taking hold that keeps pace with today’s world and reclaims government for the people it is supposed to serve. Jennifer Pahlka shows why we must stop trying to move the government we have today onto new technology and instead consider what it would mean to truly recode American government.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 2,391円

CAREER GUIDANCE OR THE ART OF NOT FAILING A fine analysis of the range of the best methods to make the wrong choice【電子書籍】[ Philippe Vivier ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>This in-depth analysis sheds light on the aberrations and well-kept secrets of the small world of vocational and career guidance professionals. Chances are they won't like it, and it'll be reflected in the comments! Do you want to know what's what with all those career methods and which one to choose ? Concerned about the emotional and financial cost of a poor choice or a university drop out? Philippe Vivier, career coach for over 19 years, uses examples to describe and dissect the most common misconceptions and obnoxious tricks of the guidance sector, as well as the problems associated with the skills of the interveners.</p> <p>In this pamphlet, he explores and compares, in a simple and sensible way, the limits and results you can expect from the different methods, from career guidance, to vocational tests and career assessments to guidance counseling and coaching.</p> <p>It examines and shows which methods really help you "choose" a profession and career, and which you should absolutely avoid.</p> <p>It's a serious subject, but you can expect to laugh once or twice, at least that's what he hopes.</p> <p>To be the big winner of this game in which you bet your professional life, read this pamphlet!</p> <p>Is this book totally exhaustive in the absolute sense of the word?</p> <p>No, it's about getting to the heart of the matter and answering the most pressing questions of parents and students by taking into account the most representative existing methods. There was no question of going through all the new methods with nebulous foundations of every individual who thinks they have an original idea or simply in search of a secondary source of income.</p> <p>Is this analysis meant to be scientific?</p> <p>No, it's not, and it's important that it's a pleasant read for everyone, but it's based on real, observable facts and elements, and presented as we go along. You'll be the judge of the relevance of the comments and arguments.</p> <p>If only it were possible to set up serious orientation experiments conducted by psychology researchers, with controllable variables and 20-year follow-up, on a sufficiently representative sample of students. One assumes then that the institution, thanks to the work of experts from state research centers, would have published a guide for the public based on these long ago, indicating the rules to be respected in guidance matters, to offset possible abuses by unscrupulous individuals or private organizations.</p> <p>So what can you expect from this book?</p> <p>A detailed analysis of guidance methods, their limitations and their benefits, so that you stop being fooled, focusing on the essentials and answering just one question: what is the best guidance method?</p> <p>Because our time is precious.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 162円

Why International Cooperation is Failing How the Clash of Capitalisms Undermines the Regulation of Finance【電子書籍】[ Thomas Kalinowski ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Since the global financial crisis of 2008/09, international cooperation has failed to curb volatile financial markets. Changes in the global rules of finance discussed in the G20 during the last decade remain limited, and it is uncertain whether they are suitable to help mitigate and manage future crises to come. This book offers an alternative to the popular notion that this failure is the result of the 'nature' of the international system, the clash of national egoisms, or lack of leadership. It instead investigates problems of international cooperation by looking at their deeper structural origins in the competition of different models of capitalism. US finance-led, EU integration-led, and East Asian state-led capitalism complement each other globally but have conflicting preferences on how to regulate international finance. This interdependence of capitalist models is relatively stable but also prone to crises caused by volatile financial flows, global economic imbalances, and 'currency wars'. By bringing together approaches from International Political Economy and Comparative Capitalism, this book shows that regulating international finance is not a technocratic exercise of fine-tuning the machinery of international institutions, but rather a political process. International cooperation can only be successful if it goes hand in hand with deep domestic changes in each of these capitalist models.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 4,198円

Searching for Hope Life at a Failing School in the Heart of America【電子書籍】[ Matthew Tully ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><strong>“A gritty, wonderfully honest investigation of life in an urban American high school in the 21st Century.” ーJay Mathews, <em>Washington Post</em> education columnist</strong></p> <p><em>Searching for Hope</em> is a gripping account of life in a once-great high school in a rough Indianapolis neighborhood. Granted unfiltered access to Manual High throughout an entire school year, award-winning journalist Matthew Tully tells the complex story of the everyday drama, failures, and triumphs in one of the nation’s many troubled urban public high schools. He walks readers into classrooms, offices, and hallways, painting a vivid picture of the profound academic problems, deep frustrations, and apathy that absorb and sometimes consume students, teachers, and administrators. Yet this intimate view also reveals the hopes, dreams, and untapped talents of some amazing individuals. Providing insights into the challenges confronting those who seek to improve the quality of America’s schools, Tully argues that school leaders and policy makers must rally communities to heartfelt engagement with their schools if the crippling social and economic threats to cities such as Indianapolis are to be averted.</p> <p>“[W]hile the book offers no unfamiliar insight into the plight of urban schools, it does give a powerful, ultimately genuine voice to the complicated, imperfect individuals whose victories and hopes are often unreported.” ー<em>Publishers Weekly</em></p> <p>“[T]his keen observation of teens at a troubled high school makes for fascinating reading.” ー<em>Library Journal</em></p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,584円

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>In recent years, the young, educated, and affluent have surged back into cities, reversing decades of suburban flight and urban decline. And yet all is not well, Richard Florida argues in <em>The New Urban Crisis</em>. Florida, one of the first scholars to anticipate this back-to-the-city movement in his groundbreaking <em>The Rise of the Creative Class</em>, demonstrates how the same forces that power the growth of the world's superstar cities also generate their vexing challenges: gentrification, unaffordability, segregation, and inequality. Meanwhile, many more cities still stagnate, and middle-class neighborhoods everywhere are disappearing. Our winner-take-all cities are just one manifestation of a profound crisis in today's urbanized knowledge economy.</p> <p>A bracingly original work of research and analysis, <em>The New Urban Crisis</em> offers a compelling diagnosis of our economic ills and a bold prescription for more inclusive cities capable of ensuring growth and prosperity for all.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,388円

Failing Our Fathers Confronting the Crisis of Economically Vulnerable Nonresident Fathers【電子書籍】[ Ronald B. Mincy ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Maligned as "deadbeat dads" or sexually and financially irresponsible inner-city fathers and overlooked in discussions of poverty and family policy, economically vulnerable nonresident fathers are a greatly misunderstood population. <em>Failing Our Fathers</em> summarizes the most recent quantitative and qualitative research, and undertakes new analyses to fill in important gaps, to produce a comprehensive picture of who these fathers are, what types of relationships they have with their families and children, and the challenges they face meeting what their loved ones and taxpayers expect from them. The great majority of these men see their children on a regular basis, despite the financial, legal, and extra-legal barriers they face. Besides requiring fathers to support their children, we must enable them to do so by supplementing their earnings and supporting their co-parenting, in ways that parallel how we require and enable vulnerable single mothers to support their children. The book lays out specific reforms required to achieve this goal as well as tips for those resources for economically vulnerable nonresident fathers.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 3,064円

<p><strong>A rare book on economics that is actually written in English. Trenchant, clear and comes complete with solutions. Essential reading for the coming election. -- Simon Jenkins</strong></p> <p><strong>A lively review of Britain's economic history since the Global Financial Crisis. It is a sad story, but Wallace finds some room for hope amidst the gloom. -- Howard Davies</strong></p> <p><strong>Crisp, comprehensive and forensic, <em>Tanked</em> casts an unflinching eye across the British economic horizon to lay bare the huge scale of our challenges. -- <em>Tom Clark, editor of Broke: Fixing Britain's Poverty Crisis</em> and Contributing Editor, <em>Prospect</em></strong></p> <p>In the autumn of 2022, Liz Truss took Britain on a journey into economic la-la land and comprehensively tanked the economy. The result? Mortgage and rents misery was piled on top of surging inflation, public debt at an eye-watering 〓2.7 trillion and falling living standards. As economic journalist Paul Wallace argues in this incisive, expert and accessible book, this was the low point of a once supercharged economy stuck in first gear since the financial crash of 2008.</p> <p>Written over ten chapters tackling the most important issues (Brexit, debt, the City, immigration, manufacturing, levelling up, public services), Wallace asks in clear, jargon-free prose what the problems are, and what we can do to solve them. He offers a ten-point plan to get our economy back on track, building on its most resilient aspects. It is vital reading for an incoming chancellor who wants a blueprint for recovery.</p> <p>Part-primer, part passionate argument, <em>Tanked</em> is the perfect book to understand how Britain has devalued itself - and how to restore its economic fortunes.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 3,417円

Until recently, the changes have been insinuated into US society so gradually few realize that a significant majority of the changes are so antithetical to fundamental US constitutional principles and values that they threaten the very survival of the US as a constitutional democratic republic. Engineered as they were by a covert, insidious, and subversive Neo-Marxist campaign which has been steadily and stealthily growing in the US for more than one hundred years, many of the changes have been deliberately designed to foment social discord, dysfunction, and instability through ethnic identity politics and race-baiting designed to pave the way for a full-fledged social revolution in which the US constitutional democratic republic would be replaced by a Neo-Marxist autocracy. The US now faces the distinct possibility of sliding into another bloody civil war, or into anarchy and chaos followed by installment of a Neo-Marxist autocracy. To prevent both of those possibilities, significant changes must be made to the US Constitution, as well as to civil, corporate, and criminal laws. If nothing is done, millions of freedom-loving US citizens, their children, and grandchildren will wake up one day to discover that all of their cherished freedoms and liberties have been taken from them. It’s now quite possible another bloody civil war will be necessary to ensure thatーin the immortal words of Abraham Lincolnーa “government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.”</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,134円

Denied! Failing Cordelia: Parental Love and Parental-State Theft in Los Angeles Juvenile Dependency Court Book One: the Cankered Rose and Esther's Revenge【電子書籍】[ Simon Cambridge ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>The Cankered Rose and Esther's Revenge begins the author's dramatic journey of adopting his teenage daughter with severe attachment issues in Seattle. The heartbreak of then seeing Cordelia "stolen" by the efforts of his former wife and the child-welfare legal complex in Los Angeles, alongside that of the trauma of being denied during efforts to reunify with her are each foreshadowed here.</p> <p>Issues surrounding adoption trauma, parenting children with reactive attachment disorder, and the author's own struggles with Asperger's syndrome will be his constant companions on this perilous journey of adopting, losing, and then trying to reunite with his beloved daughter.</p> <p>In this and subsequent volumes, the author will also be questioning the ability of the child-welfare legal complex and the Los Angeles Juvenile Dependency Court to understand the nature of damaged child attachment or the therapeutic parenting needed to heal children with "special needs." Ultimately, each would be as responsible for "failing Cordelia" as the breaking of the violent waves for the shattering movement of the rocks on the beach.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 468円

Failing the Future A Dean Looks at Higher Education in the Twenty-first Century【電子書籍】[ Annette Kolodny ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Both revealing and compelling, Annette Kolodny’s <em>Failing the Future: A Dean Looks at Higher Education in the Twenty-first Century</em> is drawn from the author’s experience as a distinguished teacher, a prize-winning scholar of American literature, a feminist thinker, and an innovative administrator at a major public university. In chapters that range from the changing structure of the American family and its impact on both curriculum and university benefits policies to recommendations for overhauling the culture of decision making on campus, this former Dean of the College of Humanities at the University of Arizona explores the present state of higher education and offers a sobering view of what lies ahead.<br /> In this volume Kolodny explains the reasons for the financial crisis in higher education today and boldly addresses the challenges that remain ignored, including rising birthrates, changing demographics both on campus and across the country, the accelerating globalization of higher education and advanced research, and the necessity for greater interdisciplinarity in undergraduate education. Moreover, while sensitive to the complex burdens placed on faculty today, Kolodny nonetheless reveals how the professoriate has allowed itself to become vulnerable to public misperceptions and to lampooning by the media.<br /> Not simply a book about current problems and future challenges, <em>Failing the Future</em> is rich with practical solutions and workable programs for change. Among her many insights, Kolodny offers a thorough defense of the role of tenure and outlines a new set of procedures to ensure its effective implementation; she proposes a structure for an “Antifeminist Intellectual Harassment Policy”; and she provides a checklist of family-sensitive policies universities can offer their staff, faculty, and administrators. Kolodny calls on union leaders, campus communities, policymakers, and the general public to work together in unprecedented partnerships. Her goal, as she states in a closing coda, is to initiate a revitalized conversation about public education.<br /> This book should be required reading for all those concerned with the future of higher education in this countryーfrom college trustees to graduate students entering the professoriate, from faculty to university administrators, from officers of campus-based unions to education policymakers.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 3,092円

Joe Biden Tweets During the First Year of His Failing Presidency, Volume One Reversing Trump, while Dividing and Destroying America, January through June 2021【電子書籍】[ Gary F. Zeolla ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Joseph R. Biden Jr. was inaugurated as President of the United States (POTUS) on January 20, 2021. In his inauguration speech, Biden gave glowing remarks about his goal being to unite America and to “Build Back Better.” But in fact, his main goal seems to have been to reverse everything his predecessor, Donald J. Trump, accomplished during his four years as President. Never mind if a policy was benefiting America, if Trump did it, it had to be reversed. This reversal of Trump’s policies did little to unite and benefit America. Instead, Biden’s policies began alienating the half of Americans who supported Trump for those very policies. By reversing Trump’s beneficial policies, Biden began destroying America, as his presidency began to be failing. Biden’s early actions also set the stage for more failures later in his presidency, so it is important to remember them. On the day Biden was inaugurated, he took over the @POTUS account on Twitter and began tweeting profusely. His tweets promoted his “Build Back Better” policies. But with them being a reversal of Trump’s policies, they were often subtle attacks on Trump and his supporters. This two-volume set reproduces Biden’s tweets for the first year of his presidency. It also includes my comments I posted on Twitter in response to his tweets. Some of my comments were added later and reflect later developments. I have also added an occasional “Extended Comment” to provide further context and commentary to some tweets. This Volume One of this two-volume set records all of Biden’s tweets from January 20, 2021 to the end of July 2021. Volume Two will cover his tweets from the beginning of August 2021 to January 20, 2022.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 560円

The Bottom Billion Why the Poorest Countries are Failing and What Can Be Done About It【電子書籍】[ Paul Collier ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>In the universally acclaimed and award-winning <em>The Bottom Billion</em>, Paul Collier reveals that fifty failed states--home to the poorest one billion people on Earth--pose the central challenge of the developing world in the twenty-first century. The book shines much-needed light on this group of small nations, largely unnoticed by the industrialized West, that are dropping further and further behind the majority of the world's people, often falling into an absolute decline in living standards. A struggle rages within each of these nations between reformers and corrupt leaders--and the corrupt are winning. Collier analyzes the causes of failure, pointing to a set of traps that ensnare these countries, including civil war, a dependence on the extraction and export of natural resources, and bad governance. Standard solutions do not work, he writes; aid is often ineffective, and globalization can actually make matters worse, driving development to more stable nations. What the bottom billion need, Collier argues, is a bold new plan supported by the Group of Eight industrialized nations. If failed states are ever to be helped, the G8 will have to adopt preferential trade policies, new laws against corruption, new international charters, and even conduct carefully calibrated military interventions. Collier has spent a lifetime working to end global poverty. In <em>The Bottom Billion</em>, he offers real hope for solving one of the great humanitarian crises facing the world today. "Set to become a classic. Crammed with statistical nuggets and common sense, his book should be compulsory reading." --<em>The Economist</em> "If Sachs seems too saintly and Easterly too cynical, then Collier is the authentic old Africa hand: he knows the terrain and has a keen ear.... If you've ever found yourself on one side or the other of those arguments--and who hasn't?--then you simply must read this book." --Niall Ferguson, <em>The New York Times Book Review</em> "Rich in both analysis and recommendations.... Read this book. You will learn much you do not know. It will also change the way you look at the tragedy of persistent poverty in a world of plenty." --<em>Financial Times</em></p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,587円

America's Failing Economy and the Rise of Ronald Reagan【電子書籍】[ Eric R. Crouse ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>This book examines one of the most important economic outcomes in American historyーthe breakdown of the Keynesian Revolution. Drawing on economic literature, the memoirs of economists and politicians, and the popular press, Eric Crouse examines how economic decline in the 1970s precipitated a political revolution. Keynesian thought flourished through the presidencies of Lyndon B. Johnson, Richard Nixon, and Gerald Ford, until stagflation devastated American workers and Jimmy Carter’s economic policies faltered, setting the stage for the 1980 presidential campaign. Tracking years of shifting public opinion and colorful debate between free-market and Keynesian economists, this book illuminates a neglected era of American economic history and shows how Ronald Reagan harnessed a vision of small government and personal freedom that transformed the American political landscape.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 14,585円
