Governing the Air The Dynamics of Science, Policy, and Citizen Interaction【電子書籍】

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><strong>Experts offer theoretical and empirical analyses that view the regulation of transboundary air pollution as a dynamic process.</strong></p> <p><em>Governing the Air</em> looks at the regulation of air pollution not as a static procedure of enactment and agreement but as a dynamic process that reflects the shifting interrelationships of science, policy, and citizens. Taking transboundary air pollution in Europe as its empirical focus, the book not only assesses the particular regulation strategies that have evolved to govern European air, but also offers theoretical insights into dynamics of social order, political negotiation, and scientific practices. These dynamics are of pivotal concern today, in light of emerging international governance problems related to climate change. The contributors, all prominent social scientists specializing in international environmental governance, review earlier findings, analyze the current situation, and discuss future directions for both empirical and theoretical work.</p> <p>The chapters discuss the institutional dimensions of international efforts to combat air pollution, examining the effectiveness of CLRTAP (Convention for Long-Range Transboundary Air Pollution) and the political complexity of the European Union; offer a broad overview and detailed case studies of the roles of science, expertise, and learning; and examine the “missing link” in air pollution policies: citizen involvement.</p> <p>Changing political conditions, evolving scientific knowledge, and the need for citizen engagement offer significant challenges for air pollution policy making. By focusing on process rather than product, learning rather than knowledge, and strategies rather than interests, this book gives a nuanced view of how air pollution is made governable.</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。 3,516円

Governing by Network The New Shape of the Public Sector【電子書籍】[ William D. Eggers ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>A fundamental, but mostly hidden, transformation is happening in the way public services are being delivered, and in the way local and national governments fulfill their policy goals. Government executives are redefining their core responsibilities away from managing workers and providing services directly to orchestrating networks of public, private, and nonprofit organizations to deliver the services that government once did itself. Authors Stephen Goldsmith and William D. Eggers call this new model “governing by network” and maintain that the new approach is a dramatically different type of endeavor that simply managing divisions of employees.<br /> Like any changes of such magnitude, it poses major challenges for those in charge. Faced by a web of relationships and partnerships that increasingly make up modern governance, public managers must grapple with skill-set issues (managing a contract to capture value); technology issues (incompatible information systems); communications issues (one partner in the network, for example, might possess more information than another); and cultural issues (how interplay among varied public, private, and nonprofit sector cultures can create unproductive dissonance).<br /> <em>Governing by Network</em> examines for the first time how managers on both sides of the aisle, public and private, are coping with the changes. Drawing from dozens of case studies, as well as established best practices, the authors tell us what works and what doesn't. Here is a clear roadmap for actually governing the networked state for elected officials, business executives, and the broader public.</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。 2,608円

The Unelected How an Unaccountable Elite is Governing America【電子書籍】[ James R. Copland ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>America is highly polarized around elections, but <em>unelected</em> actors make many of the decisions that affect our lives. In this lucid history, James R. Copland explains how unaccountable agents have taken over much of the U.S. government apparatus.</p> <p>Congress has largely abdicated its authority. “Independent” administrative agencies churn out thousands of new regulations every year. Courts have enabled these <em>rulemakers</em> to expand their powers beyond those authorized by lawーand have constrained executive efforts to rein in the bureaucratic behemoth.</p> <p>No ordinary citizen can know what is legal and what is not. There are some 300,000 federal crimes, 98 percent of which were created by administrative action. The proliferation of rules gives enormous discretion to unelected <em>enforcers</em>, and the severity of sanctions can be ruinous to citizens who unwittingly violate a regulation.</p> <p>Outside the bureaucracy, private attorneys regulate our conduct through lawsuits. Most of the legal theories underlying these suits were never voted upon by our elected representatives. A combination of historical accident, decisions by judges and law professors, and self-interested advocacy by <em>litigators</em> has built an onerous and expensive legal regime.</p> <p>Finally, state and local officials may be accountable to their own voters, but some reach further afield, pursuing agendas to dictate the terms of national commerce. These <em>new antifederalists</em> are subjecting the citizens of Wyoming and Mississippi to the whims of the electorates of New York and San Franciscoーcontrary to the constitutional design.</p> <p>In these ways, the unelected have assumed substantial control of the American republic, upended the rule of law, given the United States the world’s costliest legal system, and inverted the Constitution’s federalism. Copland caps off his account with ideas for charting a corrective course back to democratic accountability.</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。 3,776円

Cross-Border Higher Education and Quality Assurance Commerce, the Services Directive and Governing Higher Education【電子書籍】

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>This book analyses the range of potential measures national quality assurance agencies may have to employ to deal with the new issues caused by Cross Border Higher Education (CBHE). The expansion of CBHE raises quality problems, which are currently assessed differently depending on the countries concerned. This has been exacerbated by the growth of Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) which have developed very quickly and can be prone to rogue providers. This book considers the steps that have already been taken to ensure quality as well as those ahead. It is important that the swift growth of CBHE is not just seen as a means to increase the revenues of higher education institutions faced with decreasing public funding but also as a means to keep educational standards high.</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。 17,016円

Governing the World? Cases in Global Governance【電子書籍】

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>‘Global governance’ has become a key concept in the contemporary study of international politics, yet what the term means and how it works remains in question.</p> <p>Governing the World: Cases in Global Governance takes an alternative approach to understanding the concept by exploring how global governance works in practice through a set of case studies on both classical issues of international relations such as security, labour and trade, and more contemporary concerns such as the environment, international development, and governing the internet.</p> <p>The book explores the processes, practice and politics of global governance by taking a broad look at issues of human rights governance and focusing on detailed aspects of a topic such as torture and rendition to help explain how governance does, or does not, work to students and researchers of international politics alike. Bringing together a diverse and international group of scholars, each chapter responds to a set of questions as to what is being governed, how and who by and offers issue-specific case studies and recommended reading to develop a full understanding of the issue explored and what it means for global governance.</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。 12,698円

The Middle Class in Neoliberal China Governing Risk, Life-Building, and Themed Spaces【電子書籍】[ Hai Ren ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Since the late 1970s, China’s move towards neoliberalism has made it not only one of the world’s fastest growing economies, but also one of the most polarised states. This economic, social and political transformation has led to the emergence of a new Chinese middle class, and understanding the development and the role of this new social group is crucial to understanding contemporary Chinese society.</p> <p>Investigating the new politics of the middle class in China, this book addresses three major questions. First, how does the Chinese state deal with problems of national sovereignty and political representation to create the middle class both as a legitimate category of the people and as an ideal norm of citizenship? Second, how does the recognition of the middle class norm take place in the practice of everyday life? Finally, what kind of risks does the politics of the middle class generate not only for middle class subjects but also for the disenfranchised? In answering these questions, this book examines a set of practices, bodies of knowledge, measures, and institutions that aim to manage, govern, control, and orient the behaviours, gestures, and thoughts of Chinese citizens. This investigation contributes not only to the understanding of the Chinese middle class society but also to the scholarly debate over the relationship between governmental apparatuses, subjectification, and life-building.</p> <p>Drawing on ethnographic information, historical archives, and the media, this book will be of great interest to students and scholars working in the fields of Chinese studies, Chinese politics, ethnic studies and urban studies, as well as those interested in culture, society, class and welfare.</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。 11,884円

An Opinion In Governing My Country the United Republic of the Nile Valley Sudan Aspiration for a Better Future【電子書籍】[ Abdalla Salih Hamid ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>TO THE READER Dear reader: From my readings and personal experience, I have my own views as every Sudanese citizen may have about the future of his home country; and I have my own opinion concerning the sociopolitical situation in my beloved country, Sudan. I wrote some articles about the recurring problems in my country. However, those articles were not publishable by the media in Sudan as it would create a governmental upset against the media and against those who dare to promote free writing; because free writing may open the door for people who have opposing views with the ruling despotic regime to reveal their disagreement. I started thinking of Sudanese complicated political problems a long time ago, but seriously in 1999. However, I started writing my opinion about these problems in the year 2000, while I was abroad. I posted my first Arabic version at my website in 2001. There was a tremendous request to the website and thousands of visitors hits were logged by the website in the first month; and showed navigation through all the web pages. Most of the visitors were Sudanese who are living abroad, as the website statistics reflected. They were either immigrants or refugees at different countries around the world, as some of them have indicated in their electronic mail messages. Till this time, I didnt get clear reaction (positive or negative) about the opinion. I think they respected the effort put in developing such an opinion concerning the sociopolitical situation in Sudan. I thought many times about publishing this opinion in a book to be distributed inside my home country, Sudan. However, relatives and friends were absolutely against the idea. Most of them thought that: since the government is basically against any opinion that comes opposing to their propagandas in ruling the country, I would myself fail this trial of publishing the book. Some of them thought that time has not ripened yet; and since the idea of the book is very controversial, they suggested that I should wait for the right opportunity. My country is going through difficult times and is becoming like a kid country that needs parents to guide him and put him in the right track! The main point of my opinion is about the identity of my country. Since the independence, the countrys identity is not well-defined: sometimes it is Afro-Arab, at other times it is Arab-African; sometimes it is African, and at other times it is an Arab! Some of us want the country to be a new Sudan; others want it to be just Sudan. In this opinion, I tried, hopefully, to outline a suitable definition of an identity of this Country, which has been split (on 09/07/2011) in two countries: Republic of Sudan (in the north and which is supposed to be my home country), and Southern Republic of Sudan. Why it is split into two countries? This question should be answered by the ruling totalitarian despotic rgime. In the second chapter, the reader will find out justifiable evidences (I think) concerning the identity that, I assume, is the most suitable for my people in Sudan. Why should I plan a new system for governing such a continental country? Is it because I am planning to become its president? Of course No, I am not. I am suggesting such a political frame for governing my country hoping to attract my people to think deeply and genuinely about decisive solutions to their accumulated problems. Readers, then, have the choice to take it or leave it. I hope it should be understood that the opinion is a mere attempt for solving our educational, health, social, political, economical and ethnic problems by throwing some lights on them. When this book is published, the situation in my country might have been apparently changed but not drastically, and the problem of identity remains unsolved. As a result, we will remain orbiting our old vicious circle. Our country will not gain stability if we could not solve the problem of its identity. If we solve this problem, we will b</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。 552円

The School Board Effect Impact of Governing Style on Student Achievement【電子書籍】[ Alexander U. Ikejiaku ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア

This book identifies some of those styles and examines their potential impact on district administration, and ultimately on student achievement. The book also clarifies the role of school boards in unequivocal terms, discusses board-superintendent relations, and offers several recommendations and critical takeaways for education stakeholders. The authors doctoral research which gave rise to this book shows that a school boards governing style has the potential to affect educational outcomes in consequential ways, particularly in urban districts where the greatest impact was observed. A content outline for a set of professional development modules on school board governance is provided in the book, including an in depth review of the roles and responsibilities of school boards, and some case studies on board-superintendent interaction.</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。 1,144円

Governing Practices Neoliberalism, Governmentality, and the Ethnographic Imaginary【電子書籍】

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Neoliberalism is among the most commonly used concepts in the social sciences. Furthermore, it is one of the most influential factors that have shaped the formation of public policy and politics.</p> <p>In <em>Governing Practices,</em> Michelle Brady and Randy Lippert bring together prominent scholars in sociology, criminology, anthropology, geography, and policy studies to extend and refine the current conversation about neoliberalism. The collection argues that a new methodological approach to analyzing contemporary policy and political change is needed. United by the common influence of Foucault’s governmentality approach and an ethnographic imaginary, the collection presents original research on a diverse range of case studies including public-private partnerships, the governance of condos, community and state statistics, nanopolitics, philanthropy, education reform, and pay-day lending. These diverse studies add considerable depth to studies on governmentality and neoliberalism through a focus on governmental practices that have not previously been the focus of sustained analysis.</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。 5,334円

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>New urban forms characterizing contemporary metropolises reflect a certain continuity with the patterns of the past. They also include unexpected forms of settlement and design that have emerged in response to social and economic needs and as a way of leveraging new technologies. <em>Politics of the Periphery</em> sets out to explore sub/urban governance in diverse contexts in order to better understand how materiality and space are shaped by the possibilities and constraints of confronting actors.</p> <p>This collection, edited by Pierre Hamel, examines the empirical aspects of collective action and planning in eight urban regions around the world ? across North America, Europe, Asia, and Africa ? and reveals the impacts and consequences of various structures of suburban governance. The case studies feature a diverse range of local actors facing both the specificity of their respective milieus and the broader context of extended urbanization as metropolitan regions cope with new territorial challenges.</p> <p>The book focuses on suburbanization processes that characterize most of these post-metropolitan regions and questions whether it is possible to improve suburban governance in the face of growing uncertainties arising from structural and subjective transformations. Paying close attention to the relationship between the local and the global, <em>Politics of the Periphery</em> challenges the planning processes of evolving metropolitan regions.</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。 12,374円

Governing the Urban in China and India Land Grabs, Slum Clearance, and the War on Air Pollution【電子書籍】[ Xuefei Ren ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><strong>An in-depth look at the distinctly different ways that China and India govern their cities and how this impacts their residents</strong></p> <p>Urbanization is rapidly overtaking China and India, the two most populous countries in the world. One-sixth of humanity now lives in either a Chinese or Indian city. This transformation has unleashed enormous pressures on land use, housing, and the environment. Despite the stakes, the workings of urban governance in China and India remain obscure and poorly understood.</p> <p>In this book, Xuefei Ren explores how China and India govern their cities and how their different styles of governance produce inequality and exclusion. Drawing upon historical-comparative analyses and extensive fieldwork (in Beijing, Guangzhou, Wukan, Delhi, Mumbai, and Kolkata), Ren investigates the ways that Chinese and Indian cities manage land acquisition, slum clearance, and air pollution. She discovers that the two countries address these issues through radically different approaches. In China, urban governance centers on territorial institutions, such as <em>hukou</em> and the cadre evaluation system. In India, urban governance centers on associational politics, encompassing contingent alliances formed among state actors, the private sector, and civil society groups. Ren traces the origins of territorial and associational forms of governance to late imperial China and precolonial India. She then shows how these forms have evolved to shape urban growth and residents’ struggles today.</p> <p>As the number of urban residents in China and India reaches beyond a billion, <em>Governing the Urban in China and India</em> makes clear that the development of cities in these two nations will have profound consequences well beyond their borders.</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。 5,080円

Governing African Gold Mining Private Governance and the Resource Curse【電子書籍】[ Ainsley Elbra ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>This book takes a fresh approach to the puzzle of sub-Saharan Africa’s resource curse. Moving beyond current scholarship’s state-centric approach, it presents cutting-edge evidence gathered through interviews with mining company executives and industry representatives to demonstrate that firms are actively controlling the regulation of the gold mining sector. It shows how large mining firms with significant private authority in South Africa, Ghana and Tanzania are able to engender rules and regulations that are acknowledged by other actors, and in some cases even adopted by the state. In doing so, it establishes that firms are co-governing Africa’s gold mining sector. By exploring the implications for resource-cursed states, this significant work argues that firm-led regulation can improve governance, but that many of these initiatives fail to address country/mine specific issues where there remains a role for the state in ensuring the benefits of mining flow to local communities. It will appeal to economists, political scientists, and policy-makers and practitioners working in the field of mining and extractives.</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。 12,154円

Global Intelligence Oversight Governing Security in the Twenty-First Century【電子書籍】[ The Honorable Jane Harman ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>In a world that is increasingly unstable, intelligence services like the American CIA and the United Kingdom's MI6 exist to deliver security. Whether the challenge involves terrorism, cyber-security, or the renewed specter of great power conflict, intelligence agencies mitigate threats and provide decisional advantage to national leaders. But empowered intelligence services require adequate supervision and oversight, which must be about more than the narrow (if still precarious) task of ensuring the legality of covert operations and surveillance activities. <em>Global Intelligence Oversight</em> is a comparative investigation of how democratic countries can govern their intelligence services so that they are effective, but operate within frameworks that are acceptable to their people in an interconnected world. The book demonstrates how the institutions that oversee intelligence agencies participate in the protection of national security while safeguarding civil liberties, balancing among competing national interests, and building public trust in inherently secret activities. It does so by analyzing the role of courts and independent oversight bodies as they operate in countries with robust constitutional frameworks and powerful intelligence services. The book also illuminates a new transnational oversight dynamic that is shaping and constraining security services in new ways. It describes how global technology companies and litigation in transnational forums constitute a new form of oversight whose contours are still undefined. As rapid changes in technology bring the world closer together, these forces will complement their more traditional counterparts in ensuring that intelligence activities remain effective, legitimate, and sustainable.</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。 8,524円

Trade Makes States Governing the Greater Somali Economy【電子書籍】

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><em>Trade Makes States</em>highlights how trade and the circulation of goods are central to Somali societies, economies and politics. Drawing on multi-site research from across East Africa’s Somali-inhabited economic space?which includes areas of Kenya, Djibouti, Uganda and Ethiopia?this volume highlights the interconnection between trade and state-building after state collapse. It scrutinises the ‘politics of circulation’ between competing public administrations, which seek to generate revenue and to control infrastructures along major trade corridors.</p> <p>Connecting classic debates on state formation with recent scholarship on logistics and cross-border trading,<em>Trade Makes States</em>argues that the facilitation and capture of commodity flows have been instrumental in making and unmaking states across the Somali territories. Aspiring state-builders are thus confronted with the challenge of governing the flow of goods in order to rule over lands and peoples.</p> <p>The contributors to this volume draw attention to the ingenuities of transnational Somali markets, which often appear to be self-governed. Their dynamism and everyday administration by a host of actors provide important insights into contemporary state formation on the margins of global supply-chain capitalism.</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。 2,146円
