True and False Reform in the Church【電子書籍】[ Yves Congar OP ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞Archbishop Angelo Roncali (later Pope John XXIII) read ＜em＞True and False Reform＜/em＞ during his years as papal nuncio in France and asked, A reform of the church 'is such a thing really possible?" A decade later as pope, he opened the Second Vatican Council by describing its goals in terms that reflected Congar's description of authentic reform: reform that penetrates to the heart of doctrine as a message of salvation for the whole of humanity, that retrieves the meaning of prophecy in a living church, and that is deeply rooted in history rather than superficially related to the apostolic tradition. Pope John called the council not to reform heresy or to denounce errors but to update the church's capacity to explain itself to the world and to revitalize ecclesial life in all its unique local manifestations. Congar's masterpiece fills in the blanks of what we have been missing in our reception of the council and its call to "true reform."＜/p＞＜p＞＜em＞Yves Congar, OP, a French Dominican who died in 1995, was the most important ecclesiologist in modern times. His writings and his active participation in Vatican II had an immense influence upon the council documents. With a few other contemporaries, Congar pioneered a new style of theological research and writing that linked the great tradition of Scripture and the Fathers to contemporary pastoral questions with lucidity and passion. His key concerns were the unity of the church, lay apostolic life, and a revival of the church's theology of the Holy Spirit. He was named a cardinal by Pope John Paul II in recognition of his profound contributions to the Second Vatican Council.＜/em＞＜/p＞＜p＞＜em＞Paul Philibert, OP, has taught pastoral theology in the United States and abroad. He is a Dominican friar of the Southern Province. His translation of a collection of Congar's essays on the liturgy has recently been published by Liturgical Press under the title＜/em＞ At the Heart of Christian Worship. ＜em＞His book＜/em＞ The Priesthood of the Faithful: Key to a living Church ＜em＞(Liturgical Press, 2005) reflects the ecclesiology of Yves Congar and his Vision of the apostolic life of the faithful.＜/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。	5,040円
Voices Carry Behind Bars and Backstage during China's Revolution and Reform【電子書籍】[ Ying Ruocheng ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞Voices Carry is the moving autobiography of the late Ying Ruocheng, beloved Chinese stage and screen actor, theatre director, translator, and high-ranking politician as vice minister of culture from 1986?1990. One of twentieth-century China's most prominent citizens, Ying was imprisoned during the Cultural Revolution and devised unique strategies for survival, including playing pranks on guards and keeping a clandestine notebook. Ying's memoir opens with his prison years, and then flashes back to his boyhood growing up in a prince's palace as a member of a progressive Manchu Catholic intellectual family. He also details his experiences as a university student during the heady days when the People's Republic was being founded, followed by his subsequent experiences on stage, in film, and in politics.＜/p＞＜p＞A founding member of the Beijing People's Art Theatre, Ying Ruocheng helped open its doors to Sino-American exchange when he brought Arthur Miller to China to stage Death of a Salesman in 1983, playing the role of Willy Loman in his own translation of the play. Simultaneously a "spy" for his own government and a cultural ambassador for countless foreigners and fellow countrymen, Ying lived out his life as a bridge between China and the West, gaining a singular perspective on matters related to culture and politics.＜/p＞＜p＞While suffering from cirrhosis of the liver during the final decade of his life, Ying Ruocheng reflected on his experiences, collaborating with coauthor Claire Conceison to tell his story. Together, they take the reader on an exhilarating journey from Manchu wrestling matches to missionary schools, from behind prison bars to behind the scenes at ground-breaking stage performances, and from public moments of international recognition to private moments of intimacy and despair.＜/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。	6,380円
A Manifesto for Ombudsman Reform【電子書籍】楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞This book seeks to persuade policy-makers and legislators of the need for legislative reform of the ombudsman sector, and to evidence the ways in which such reformative legislation can be designed.

The Dark Side of Reform Exploring the Impact of Public Policy on Racial Equity【電子書籍】[ Michael Hudson-Vassell ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞The Dark Side of Reform: Exploring the Impact of Public Policy on Racial Equity contains nine chapters on the development of social policies with the potential to advance racial equity. In addition to studying these policies and their implications, the chapters in this volume demonstrate how lessons from the past can be used to inform the direction of current discussions.

The volume also offers recommendations on implementing policies that address the unique concerns of structurally disadvantaged communities with particular emphasis on Black and Latinx people.＜/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。	4,333円
Parliament: The Biography (Volume II - Reform)【電子書籍】[ Chris Bryant ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞Over the last two hundred years Parliament has witnessed and effected dramatic and often turbulent change. Political parties rose ? and fell. The old aristocratic order passed away. The vote was won for the working classes and, eventually, for women. The world was torn apart by two extraordinarily bloody wars. And individual politicians were cheered for their altruism or their bravery and jeered for their sexual or financial misdemeanours.＜br /＞ This second volume of Chris Bryant’s majestic ＜em＞Parliament: The Biography＜/em＞ has a cast of characters that includes some of British history’s most famous names: the Duke of Wellington, Sir Robert Peel, Gladstone, Disraeli, Lloyd George, Churchill and Thatcher. Its recurring theme is reform and innovation, but it also lays bare obsessive respect for the past and a dedication to evolution rather than revolution, which has left us with a fudged constitution still perilously dependent on custom, convention and gentlemen’s agreements.＜br /＞ This is riveting, flawlessly researched and accessible popular history for anyone with an interest in why modern Britain is the nation it is today.＜/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。	2,427円
Cameralism and the Enlightenment Happiness, Governance and Reform in Transnational Perspective【電子書籍】楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞Cameralism and the Enlightenment reassesses the relationship between two key phenomena of European history often disconnected from each other. It builds on recent insights from global history, transnational history and Enlightenment studies to reflect on the dynamic interactions of cameralism, an early modern set of practices and discourses of statecraft prominent in central Europe, with the broader political, intellectual and cultural developments of the Enlightenment world. Through contributions from prominent scholars across the field of Enlightenment studies, the volume analyzes eighteenth-century cameralist authors’ engagements with commerce, colonialism and natural law. Challenging the caricature of cameralism as a German, land-locked version of mercantilism, the volume reframes its importance for scholars of the Enlightenment broadly conceived.＜/p＞＜p＞This volume goes beyond the typical focus on Britain and France in studies of political economy, widening perspectives about the dissemination of ideas of governance, happiness and reform to focus on multidirectional exchanges across continental Europe and beyond during the eighteenth century. Emphasizing the practice of theory, it proposes the study of the porosity of ideas in their exchange, transmission and mediation between spaces and discourses as a key dimension of cultural and intellectual history.＜/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。	10,280円
China’s Economic Growth Prospects From Demographic Dividend To Reform Dividend【電子書籍】[ Cai Fang ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞China has grown rapidly since the reform initiation of the 1970s. ＜em＞China's Economic Growth Prospects＜/em＞ narrates the contribution of demographic transition to recent economic growth in China, and provides suggestions for ways in which it can sustain growth over the next few decades.＜/p＞＜p＞The expert author provides reasons for the economic slowdown since the second decade of the twenty-first century; explores the challenges facing China's long-term sustainability of growth with the disappearance of demographic dividend; and proposes policy suggestions. He concludes that, in order to avoid the middle-income trap, economic growth in China must transform from an inputs-driven pattern, to a productivity-driven pattern.＜/p＞＜p＞Academics, researchers and students of economics and business, particularly those specialising in China, will find this book to be a useful resource. Investment bankers, journalists, politicians and policy makers will find the discussions of past experience and the future potential of the Chinese economy to be of interest.＜/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。	6,139円
Law Reform in Early Modern England Crown, Parliament and the Press【電子書籍】[ Barbara J Shapiro ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞This book provides an illuminating commentary of law reform in the early modern era (1500?1740) and views the moves to improve law and legal institutions in the context of changing political and governmental environments.＜/p＞＜p＞Taking a fresh look at law reform over several centuries, it explores the efforts of the king and parliament, and the body of literature supporting law reform that emerged with the growth of print media, to assess the place of the well-known attempts of the revolutionary era in the context of earlier and later movements. Law reform is seen as a long term concern and a longer time frame is essential to understand the 1640?1660 reform measures.＜/p＞＜p＞The book considers two law reform movements: the moderate movement which had a lengthy history and whose chief supporters were the governmental and parliamentary elites, and which focused on improving existing law and legal institutions, and the radical reform movement, which was concentrated in the revolutionary decades and which sought to overthrow the common law, the legal profession and the existing system of courts. Informed by attention to the institutional difficulties in completing legislation, this highlights the need to examine particular parliaments.＜/p＞＜p＞Although lawyers have often been seen as the chief obstacles to law reform, this book emphasises their contributions ? particularly their role in legislation and in reforming the corpus of legal materials ? and highlights the previously ignored reform efforts of Lord Chancellors.＜/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。	6,082円
?土社會的終結──東亞地區的殖民管治和土地政策 Colonial Administration and Land Reform in East Asia【電子書籍】[ 張瑞威 ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞一田一主的法律框架與現代測量技術，如何影響東亞殖民地的社會結構？＜br /＞從臺灣與香港的土地政策改革，探究東亞?土社會的顯著轉變。＜/p＞＜p＞根據歐洲的土地所有權原則，任何不由公司或慈善組織擁有的土地必須由存活的個人持有。1841年，英國殖民者統治香港，實施此原則，廢除中國傳統的集體土地所有權，摧毀了宗族和廟宇的財政基礎。1860年，香港政府擴展此政策至九龍半島。幾乎同時，日本明治政府引入了相似政策，成功?除封建領主，減少宗族和寺廟的影響。?得注意的是，當日本在1895年統治臺灣時，保留了當地華人宗族和宗教團體的土地所有權，而香港政府在1898年租借新界後，也對當地華人提供類似優惠。這使得臺灣和新界成為人類學家研究傳統中國社會組織的最後兩個地方。＜/p＞＜p＞本書探討近代東亞地區在殖民統治下土地所有權制度的變化及其對當地社會結構的影響。雖然?及中國、日本和韓國，但特別聚焦於1842至1997年受英國統治的香港，以及1895至1945年受日本統治的臺灣。＜/p＞＜p＞書中的重點並非探討殖民地土地政策的傳承，而是其轉變。臺灣和新界僅占整個東亞的一小部分，而在這兩個地區，傳統的宗族和宗教團體也遭受到兩方面的衝?：第一是「一田一主」的法律框架，其次是精準的田土測量技術。這兩者共同増強了政府對個體業主的控制，儘管宗族和宗教團體的影響力依然存在，但顯然已大不如前。近代的東亞?史中，?土社會結構發生了顯著改變，小地主社會逐漸主導農村結構，並與政權建立直接的連?。＜/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。	1,553円
Failure Family Law Reform Australia【電子書籍】[ John Stapleton ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞The year 2025 marks the 50th anniversary of the passing of the Family Law Act, the single most intrusive and destructive piece of legislation to ever pass the Australian parliament.＜/p＞＜p＞In that time the Family Court has been the subject of dozens of government inquiries and attempts at reform on its road to becoming a cash cow for lawyers and the single most hated jurisdiction in the country.＜/p＞＜p＞Far from the caring, helpful court promoting joint custody and cooperation after separation, as its founders envisaged, the Family Court rapidly became a law unto itself, imposing sole custody on separating families despite all the documented harm of this style of custody order, while denying non-custodial parents contact with their children on the flimsiest of excuses.＜/p＞＜p＞Overly legalistic, enormously bureaucratic, secretive, and unaccountable, defying public norms of decency and probity, the ideologically driven Family Court and its so-called evil sister the Child Support Agency have remained remarkably resistant to reform and indifferent to the public odium they attract.＜/p＞＜p＞Successive governments from both left and right have failed to listen to their constituents and respond to their concerns. They have resorted to vested inquiries in the hands of the mandarins and publicly funded elites whose feigned attempts to listen to the views of ordinary people are a stain on the Australian Public Service.＜/p＞＜p＞In terms of human suffering, the Australian public has already paid dearly for the failure to fix outdated, badly administered and inappropriate institutions dealing with family breakdown. The country's failure to reform family law and child support is ultimately a failure of democracy itself.＜/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。	2,818円

Thoughts on Educational Topics and Institutions Inspiring Insights for Educational Reform【電子書籍】[ George S. Boutwell ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞In "Thoughts on Educational Topics and Institutions," George S. Boutwell presents a compelling examination of the educational landscape of his time, delving into the complexities of pedagogical theories and institutional frameworks. Styled with clarity and eloquence, Boutwell's prose is reflective and persuasive, addressing various themes such as the role of government in education, the necessity for reform, and the importance of moral and intellectual development. The book serves as both a critique and a blueprint for educational advancement, situating itself within the context of the post-Civil War era, a time ripe for social and institutional change. George S. Boutwell, an influential educator and politician, made significant contributions to the development of American education during the Reconstruction era. His experiences as a Massachusetts Governor and U.S. Congressman, coupled with a lifelong commitment to public service, informed his perspectives on educational reform. Boutwell's background as a progressive thinker and advocate for equal access to education reveals a deep understanding of the societal underpinnings that affect educational systems. His insights reflect a broad vision for an enlightened citizenry through education. This book is recommended for educators, policymakers, and history enthusiasts alike, as it offers profound reflections on how educational institutions can shape society. Boutwell's work not only inspires contemporary discourse on education but also encourages readers to consider the ongoing impact of educational practices and policies.＜/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。	150円

Charlotte Perkins Gilman (1860-1935) was a prominent American feminist, sociologist, novelist, writer of short stories, poetry, and nonfiction, and a lecturer for social reform.

Thoughts on the Education of Daughters Enriched edition. Challenging Gender Norms: A Feminist Perspective on Education Reform【電子書籍】[ Mary Wollstonecraft ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞In "Thoughts on the Education of Daughters," Mary Wollstonecraft presents a compelling critique of the contemporary education system for women, advocating for a rational and philosophical foundation in their learning. Written in 1787, this seminal work employs a clear, impassioned prose style that reflects Enlightenment ideals while challenging the subjugation of women through inadequate educational practices. Wollstonecraft posits that a well-rounded education is crucial not just for women's personal development but also for their ability to contribute meaningfully to society. Her arguments anticipate later feminist thought, intertwining notions of ethics, self-discipline, and the moral role of women in the family and society at large. Wollstonecraft's dedication to women's rights and education was informed by her own experiences as a governess and her observations of the societal limitations imposed on women. As a pioneering figure in feminist philosophy, her works often reflect a deep personal conviction about the benefits of education and rationality. Her life experiences, including her struggles against poverty and the constraints imposed by her gender, shaped her passionate appeal for change. I highly recommend "Thoughts on the Education of Daughters" to anyone interested in early feminist literature or the evolution of educational theory. This text not only sheds light on the historical context of women's education but also challenges readers to reconsider the legacies of inequality that persist today, making it a thought-provoking and essential read. In this enriched edition, we have carefully created added value for your reading experience: - A succinct Introduction situates the work's timeless appeal and themes. - The Synopsis outlines the central plot, highlighting key developments without spoiling critical twists. - A detailed Historical Context immerses you in the era's events and influences that shaped the writing. - An Author Biography reveals milestones in the author's life, illuminating the personal insights behind the text. - A thorough Analysis dissects symbols, motifs, and character arcs to unearth underlying meanings. - Reflection questions prompt you to engage personally with the work's messages, connecting them to modern life. - Handーpicked Memorable Quotes shine a spotlight on moments of literary brilliance. - Interactive footnotes clarify unusual references, historical allusions, and archaic phrases for an effortless, more informed read.＜/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。	300円
Forgotten Reformer Robert McClaughry and Criminal Justice Reform in Nineteenth-Century America【電子書籍】[ Frank Morn ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞＜em＞Forgotten Reformer＜/em＞ traces criminal justice practice and reform developments in late nineteenth-century America through the life and career of Robert McClaughry, a leading reformer. As a warden of one of America's toughest prisons, as a chief of police of Chicago, as a superintendent of two different reformatories, and as one of the first wardens of the federal prison system, McClaughry developed and led a reform movement that resonates today.＜br /＞ As a founding member of the reformatory movement that sought to "save" young first offenders, McClaughry advocated new sentencing structures, probation, parole, and rehabilitative regimes within new institutions for young first offenders called reformatories. McClaughry then successfully got these reformatory ideals placed into adult prisons.＜br /＞ In addition, McClaughry became American's main advocate for a criminal identification method called the Bertillon system. He set up the first identification bureaus at the Illinois State Penitentiary, the Chicago police department, and the federal prison at Leavenworth, Kansas and these became models for others across the country.＜br /＞ Finally, as a founding member of the National Association of Chiefs of Police (today the International Association of Chiefs of Police) and the National Prison Assocation (today American Corrections Association), McClaughry sought to professionalize police and prison administrators.＜/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。	8,185円
The Implementation Game The TRIPS Agreement and the Global Politics of Intellectual Property Reform in Developing Countries【電子書籍】[ Carolyn Deere ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞With the launch of the World Trade Organization (WTO) in 1995, its Agreement on Trade-Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights (TRIPS) emerged as a symbol of coercion in international economic relations. In the decade that followed, intellectual property became one of the most contentious topics of global policy debate. This book is the first full-length study of the politics surrounding what developing countries did to implement TRIPS and why. Based on a review of the evidence from 1995 to 2007, this book emphasises that developing countries exhibited considerable variation in their approach to TRIPS implementation. In particular, developing countries took varying degrees of advantage of the legal safeguards and options-commonly known as TRIPS 'flexibilities'-that the Agreement provides. To explain this variation, this book argues that TRIPS implementation must be understood as a complex political game played out among developing country governments and a range of stakeholders-developed countries, non-governmental organisations (NGOs), intergovernmental organisations (IGOs), and industry groups. The contested nature of the TRIPS bargain spurred competing efforts to revise the terms of TRIPS and to influence global IP regulation more broadly. The intensity of the implementation game was amplified by an awareness among the various stakeholders that the IP reforms developing countries pursued would influence these ongoing international negotiations. The book attributes the variation in TRIPS implementation to the interplay between these global IP debates, international power pressures, and political dynamics within developing countries. The book includes historical analysis, compilations of evidence, and analysis supported by examples from across the developing world. ＜em＞The Implementation Game＜/em＞ will be of interest both to scholars of international relations, law, and international political economy as well as to policymakers, commentators, and activists engaged in debates on the global governance of intellectual property.＜/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。	6,623円

Town and Country Sermons Reflecting on Faith and Society: Victorian Sermons of Social Reform and Spiritual Insight【電子書籍】[ Charles Kingsley ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞In "Town and Country Sermons," Charles Kingsley masterfully intertwines theology and social commentary, providing a series of compelling discourses aimed at addressing the moral and spiritual dilemmas of both urban and rural life during the Victorian era. Written in a conversational yet didactic style, Kingsley employs vivid imagery and relatable anecdotes to engage his readers, all while urging them toward ethical living and social responsibility. The sermons reflect the broader historical context of industrialization and its impact on society, as Kingsley skillfully navigates themes of justice, community, and the innate dignity of each individual. Charles Kingsley (1819-1875) was a prominent clergyman, social reformer, and novelist, deeply influenced by his experiences as both an Anglican priest and a vocal critic of societal injustices. His firsthand observations of the struggles faced by the working class, combined with his rich literary background, informed his passion for championing moral reform and the importance of faith in everyday life. This blend of personal conviction and scholarly insight makes his sermons not only relevant in his time but also a reflective commentary on ongoing social issues. Readers seeking to explore a rich tapestry of Victorian moral thought and its applicability to contemporary challenges will find "Town and Country Sermons" both enlightening and transformative. This collection not only serves as a historical document but also a call to action, encouraging readers to reflect on their role in fostering compassion and justice in their communities.＜/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。	150円
Fixing Social Security The Politics of Reform in a Polarized Age【電子書籍】[ R. Douglas Arnold ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞＜strong＞How Social Security has shaped American politicsーand why it faces insolvency＜/strong＞＜/p＞＜p＞Since its establishment, Social Security has become the financial linchpin of American retirement. Yet demographic trendsーlonger lifespans and declining birthratesーmean that this popular program now pays more in benefits than it collects in revenue. Without reforms, 83 million Americans will face an immediate benefit cut of 20 percent in 2034. How did we get here and what is the solution? In ＜em＞Fixing Social Security＜/em＞, R. Douglas Arnold explores the historical role that Social Security has played in American politics, why Congress has done nothing to fix its insolvency problem for three decades, and what legislators can do to save it.＜/p＞＜p＞What options do legislators have as the program nears the precipice? They can raise taxes, as they did in 1977, cut benefits, as they did in 1983, or reinvent the program, as they attempted in 2005. Unfortunately, every option would impose costs, and legislators are reluctant to act, fearing electoral retribution. Arnold investigates why politicians designed the system as they did and how between 1935 and 1983 they allocatedーand reallocatedーcosts and benefits among workers, employers, and beneficiaries. He also examines public support for the program, and why Democratic and Republican representatives, once political allies in expanding Social Security, have become so deeply polarized about fixing it.＜/p＞＜p＞As Social Security edges closer to crisis, ＜em＞Fixing Social Security＜/em＞ offers a comprehensive analysis of the political fault lines and a fresh look at what can be doneーbefore it is too late.＜/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。	3,045円
Communists constructing capitalism State, market, and the Party in China’s financial reform【電子書籍】[ Julian Gruin ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞Why has China’s ‘transition’ to a market economy not catalysed corresponding political transformation? In an era of deepening synergy between authoritarian politics and capitalist economics, this bookoffers a novel perspective on this central dilemma of contemporary Chinese development, shedding light on how the Chinese Communist Party achieved rapid economic growth while preserving political stability. Drawing on extensive fieldwork and over sixty interviews with policymakers, bankers and former party and state officials, the book delves into the role of China’s state-owned banking system since 1989, showing how political control over capital has been central to the country’s experience of capitalist development. It challenges existing state-market paradigms of political economy and reveals the Eurocentric assumptions underpinning liberal perspectives towards Chinese authoritarian resilience.＜/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。	3,973円

The reform of the AB is critical, as the appointment crisis could lead to the demise of “the jewel in the crown,” which may even cause the dismantling of the WTO as a whole. This book covers various aspects of the crisis and its reform. Specifically, as the crisis cannot be fully understood without reviewing the role of the AB from the broader perspectives of the other functions of the WTO, the book examines the reform of the AB from the broader perspectives of the WTO governance. Additional focus is on the reform of the AB in relation to its specific functions. Available options are provided to address the AB crisis, as well as discussion of wider implications beyond the WTO. Contributed by world-renowned academics, experts, and practitioners in the field ofinternational economic law, this volume provides a comprehensive analysis of the AB crisis and its solutions.＜/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。	15,800円

Aspects of Law Reform An Insider's Perspective【電子書籍】[ Jack Straw ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞The British justice system is an ancient one that has continually evolved to meet modern needs. In this set of three essays, originally presented as the Hamlyn lectures in 2012, Jack Straw reviews some of the most important recent reforms to the system of British justice and suggests key areas in need of further reform. He focuses in particular on the criminal courts, human rights, judicial appointments and the relationship between the UK Parliament, the domestic courts and the European Court of Human Rights. In all three cases, he argues that the British justice system is now in a healthier state than it has been in his lifetime, but that there remains much room - and need - for improvement.＜/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。	5,173円
Fallacies of Anti-Reformers Enriched edition. Challenging Fallacies and Resisting Change: A Study in Social Reform and Political Satire【電子書籍】[ Sydney Smith ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞In "Fallacies of Anti-Reformers," Sydney Smith meticulously dismantles the arguments presented by those resistant to social and political reform in early 19th-century England. Utilizing a blend of incisive wit and careful analysis, Smith's literary style is characterized by a sharp clarity and a persuasive eloquence, which allows him to dissect complex ideas without losing engagement. The text emerges as a vital contribution to the reformist discourse of the period, reflecting the broader Enlightenment values of reason and progress and serving as an incisive response to the prevailing conservatism of his time. Sydney Smith, an influential Anglican cleric and prominent social commentator, was deeply embedded in the intellectual milieu of his era. His experiences as a reformer, educator, and advocate for social change shaped his perspectives, compelling him to write this work as a call to action against stagnation. Smith's own advocacy for the abolition of slavery and educational reform highlights his commitment to progressive ideals, firmly rooting his arguments within the context of his life's work. This book is highly recommended for anyone interested in the philosophical debates surrounding social reform and the intellectual history of the 19th century. Smith's arguments not only illuminate the fallacies of anti-reform sentiment but also inspire modern readers to consider the ongoing relevance of reformist ideals in our contemporary sociopolitical landscape.

National Subcommissions of ICMI and their Role in the Reform of Mathematics Education【電子書籍】楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞ICMI (or IMUK) was founded in 1908 and initiated the establishment of national subcommissions to launch national activities in response to the IMUK agenda and to promote the reform proposals within each member country.While ICMI’s activities were thoroughly studied, the activities of the national subcommissions are studied only very marginally. In the meantime, their work has been of major importance ? both because of their role in exploring and documenting the development of mathematics education at the beginning of the 20th century, and because of the changes and new ideas which they brought to their countries. Importantly, even if some results of their activities were analyzed within their countries in the corresponding languages, almost nothing is known internationally. This book is planned to deepen our knowledge on at least some of the national subcommissions. The book will interest both researchers and others interested in mathematics education and its development.＜/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
Reform of the International Monetary System Why and How?【電子書籍】[ John B. Taylor ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞＜strong＞An argument that a rules-based reform of the international monetary system, achieved by applying basic economic theory, would improve economic performance.＜/strong＞＜/p＞＜p＞In this book, the economist John Taylor argues that the apparent correlation of monetary policy decisions among different countriesーlargely the result of countries' concerns about the exchange rateーcauses monetary policy to deviate from effective policies that stabilize inflation and the economy. He argues that a rules-based reform of the international monetary system, achieved by applying basic economic theory, would improve economic performance.＜/p＞＜p＞Taylor shows that monetary polices in recent years have been deployed either defensively, as central banks counteract forces from abroad that affect the exchange rate, or offensively, as central banks attempt to move the exchange rate to gain a competitive advantage. Focusing on the years from 2005 to 2017, he develops an empirical framework to examine two monetary policy instruments: the policy interest rate (the more conventional of the two) and the size of the balance sheet. He finds that an international contagion in central bank decisions about the policy interest rate has accentuated the deviation from standard interest rate rules that have worked in the past. He finds a similar contagion in decisions about the size of the balance sheet. By considering a counterfactual policy in the estimated model, Taylor is able to estimate by how much the policy of recent years has increased exchange rate volatility. After several rounds of monetary actions and reactions aimed at exchange rates, Taylor finds, the international monetary system is left with roughly the same interest rate configuration, but much larger balance sheets to unwind.＜/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。	3,979円

Free Trade with India Reimagining Trade: A 19th Century Call for Economic Reform【電子書籍】[ active 1813 Common sense ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞In "Free Trade with India," the author, known for his sharp critique of economic policies, delves into the complexities of trade relations between Britain and its colonial holdings in India. The work employs a persuasive, yet scholarly tone, dissecting the implications of free trade on both the British economy and Indian society. Drawing from contemporary debates on mercantilism and burgeoning capitalism, it situates itself in the larger discourse of economic reform movements of the early 19th century, challenging imperialistic paradigms and advocating for a more equitable trading relationship. The author'??s background'??a convergence of intellectual engagement with Enlightenment ideals and firsthand awareness of colonial exploitation'??shapes this seminal text. His experience with the social injustices surrounding trade practices in India fuels an ardent belief in the principles of free trade as not merely economic tools but as vehicles for social justice. This unique vantage point places the narrative at the intersection of economic theory and moral philosophy, making it a critical contribution to both fields. "Free Trade with India" is a must-read for scholars and laypersons interested in historical economic policies, colonial studies, and ethical trade practices. Its incisive analysis is essential for understanding not just past economic relations, but also contemporary discussions on trade, equity, and globalization.＜/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。	460円
