An Essay on the Evils of Popular Ignorance Enriched edition. Unveiling the Toll of Ignorance: A Critical Analysis of Social Inequality and Educational Reform in 19th-Century England【電子書籍】[ John Foster ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>In "An Essay on the Evils of Popular Ignorance," John Foster meticulously dissects the repercussions of widespread ignorance on society, weaving a compelling narrative that grapples with the essence of knowledge and its societal bearings. Written in the early 19th century, Foster employs a rich, rhetorical style characteristic of the Enlightenment, blending carefully reasoned arguments with passionate prose. His exploration into the moral and social dilemmas posed by ignorance reflects a deeply analytical approach, offering readers a comprehensive critique of contemporary socio-political dynamics and advocating for enlightenment through education and critical thought. John Foster, a prominent essayist and critic, was profoundly influenced by the intellectual currents of his time. His own experiences in a rapidly changing world, marked by the burgeoning of industrialization and the reform movements that characterized early 19th-century Britain, compel him to confront the dangers of ignorance. His background in literature and philosophy provided the tools to articulate these issues with both precision and empathy, making his work a significant contribution to educational discourse. Readers interested in the interplay between knowledge and societal well-being will find Foster's essay both enlightening and troubling. This work not only serves as a historical artifact but also resonates with contemporary discussions about misinformation and the importance of education. A must-read for anyone seeking to understand the foundations of societal progress through the lens of knowledge.

Household Education Exploring Family Education in the 19th Century: Insights on Gender Roles and Social Reform【電子書籍】[ Harriet Martineau ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>In "Household Education," Harriet Martineau presents a pioneering exploration of the intersection between domestic life and education, advocating for a comprehensive system of moral and intellectual instruction within the home. Written in a clear, accessible style, Martineau engages her readers with a blend of practical advice and keen social observation, reflecting the Victorian-era belief in the importance of character development as a foundation for personal and societal progress. The book underscores the role of women as educators and moral guides within the household, situating the domestic sphere as a critical space for shaping future generations. Martineau, a foremost thinker of her time, rose to prominence through her advocacy for social reform and her examinations of contemporary issues ranging from class inequality to women's rights. Her experiences as a sociologist and the challenges she faced as a female writer in the 19th century informed her perspectives on education and its transformative potential. Martineau's academic background and her commitment to improving societal conditions motivated her to address the undercurrents of educational philosophy and domestic responsibility within her work. "Household Education" is recommended for scholars and general readers alike who seek to understand the evolution of educational thought, particularly in the context of domestic roles. Martineau's insights offer a profound commentary on the responsibilities of caregiving and the foundational role of home education, making this work a vital addition to any exploration of gender, education, and social reform.</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

Brokers of Faith, Brokers of Empire Armenians and the Politics of Reform in the Ottoman Empire【電子書籍】[ Richard E. Antaramian ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>The Ottoman Empire enforced imperial rule through its management of diversity. For centuries, non-Muslim religious institutions, such as the Armenian Church, were charged with guaranteeing their flocks' loyalty to the sultan. Rather than being passive subjects, Armenian elites, both the clergy and laity, strategically wove the institutions of the Armenian Church, and thus the Armenian community itself, into the fabric of imperial society. In so doing, Armenian elites became powerful brokers between factions in Ottoman politicsーuntil the politics of nineteenth-century reform changed these relationships.</p> <p>In <em>Brokers of Faith, Brokers of Empire</em>, Richard E. Antaramian presents a revisionist account of Ottoman reform, relating the contention within the Armenian community to broader imperial politics. Reform afforded Armenians the opportunity to recast themselves as partners of the state, rather than as brokers among factions. And in the course of pursuing such programs, they transformed the community's role in imperial society. As the Ottoman reform program changed how religious difference could be employed in a Muslim empire, Armenian clergymen found themselves enmeshed in high-stakes political and social contests that would have deadly consequences.</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。 3,947円

English Language Learners and Math Discourse, Participation, and Community in Reform-Oriented, Middle School Mathematics Classes【電子書籍】[ Holly Hansen-Thomas ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Taking a community of practice perspective that highlights the learner as part of a community, rather than a lone individual responsible for her/his learning, this ethnographically-influenced study investigates how Latina/o English Language Learners (ELLs) in middle school mathematics classes negotiated their learning of mathematics and mathematical discourse. The classes in which the Latina/o students were enrolled used a reform-oriented approach to math learning; the math in these classes wasーto varying degreesーtaught using a hands-on, discovery approach to learning where group learning was valued, and discussions in and about math were critical.</p> <p>This book presents the stories of how six immigrant and American-born ELLs worked with their three teachers of varied ethnicity, education, experience with second language learners, and training in reform-oriented mathematics curricula to gain a degree of competence in the mathematical discourse they used in class. Identity, participation, situated learning, discourse use by learners of English as a Second Language (ESL), framing in language, and student success in mathematics are all critical notions that are highlighted within this school-based research.</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。 7,164円

Family Law Reform in Postwar Japan Succession and Adoption【電子書籍】[ Joy Larsen Paulson ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>How does a nation, defeated in war, respond to externally imposed reforms that set that nations family system upside down, completely eliminating the familys modus operandi At least that is what the elimination of family kinship and single inheritance in reforms by the Supreme Command for the Allied Powers (SCAP) in the 1948 Civil Code was meant to do. How did the Japanese respond to these reforms in Family Law that many believed would result in the destruction of the family? This study looks at succession and adoption in the years following the reform to understand how the Japanese were able to circumvent the Code and shape the family to meet their evolving needs.</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

Co-operation, Contestation and Complexity in Peacebuilding Post-Conflict Security Sector Reform【電子書籍】

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Security Sector Reform (SSR) remains a key feature of peacebuilding interventions and is usually undertaken by a state alongside national and international partners. External actors engaged in SSR tend to follow a normative agenda that often has little regard for the context in post-conflict societies. Despite recurrent criticism, SSR practices of international organisations and bilateral donors often remain focused on state institutions, and often do not sufficiently attend to alternative providers of security or existing normative frameworks of security.</p> <p>This edited collection explores three aspects that add an important piece to the puzzle of what constitutes effective Security Sector Reform (SSR). First, the variation of norm adoption, norm contestation and norm imposition in post-conflict countries that might explain the mixed results in terms of peacebuilding. Second, the multitude of different security actors within and beyond the state which often leads to multiple patterns of co-operation and contestation within reform programmes. Third, how both the multiplicity of and tension between norms and actors further complicate efforts to build peace or, as complexity theory would posit, influence the complex and non-linear social system that is the conflict-affected environment.</p> <p>The chapters in this book were originally published as a special issue of the <em>Journal of Intervention and Statebuilding.</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。 9,948円

Sanitary and Social Lectures and Essays Exploring Social Urgency and Reform in the 19th Century【電子書籍】[ Charles Kingsley ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>In "Sanitary and Social Lectures and Essays," Charles Kingsley presents a compelling exploration of the intersecting themes of public health, social justice, and moral responsibility in Victorian England. This collection, characterized by its persuasive prose and thought-provoking arguments, addresses pressing issues such as urban sanitation, poverty, and the need for social reform. Kingsley's literary style merges scientific inquiry with rhetorical flair, making his lectures accessible yet profound, deeply rooted in the burgeoning movements for public health and community improvement of the 19th century. His insights resonate with contemporary discussions on social equity and environmental health, enhancing the relevance of his work. Charles Kingsley, a prominent Victorian author and an advocate for social reform, was inspired by his experiences as a clergyman and his observations of the chronic issues plaguing the working classes. With a background in natural history and a passion for social justice, Kingsley sought to bridge the gap between scientific understanding and moral obligation, urging society to foster a healthier environment for all. His own life as a father and educator infused his writings with a personal commitment to the welfare of society's most vulnerable. "Sanitary and Social Lectures and Essays" is a crucial read for anyone interested in the intersections of health, morality, and social policy. Kingsley'??s potent arguments and visionary ideas serve as an invaluable resource for scholars, activists, and anyone striving to understand the historical foundations of modern public health discourses. This work not only enriches our understanding of the past but also offers timeless lessons for contemporary society.</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

Revolt and Reform in Architecture's Academy Urban Renewal, Race, and the Rise of Design in the Public Interest【電子書籍】[ William Richards ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><em>Revolt and Reform in Architecture’s Academy</em> uniquely addresses the complicated relationship between architectural education and urban renewal in the 1960s, which paved the way for what is today known as public interest design. Through an examination of curricular reforms at Columbia University’s and Yale University’s schools of architecture in the 1960s, this book translates the "urban crisis" through the experiences of two influential groups of architecture students, as well as their contributions to design’s lexicon.</p> <p>The book argues that urban renewal and campus expansion half a century ago recast architectural education at two schools whose host cities, New York and New Haven, were critical sites for political, social, and urban upheaval in America. The urban challenges of that time are the same challenges rapidly growing cities face todayーaccess, equity, housing, and services.</p> <p>As architects, architects in training, and architecture students continue to wrestle with questions surrounding how design may serve a broadly defined public interest, this book is a timely assessment of the forces that have shaped the debate.</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。 10,943円

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

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

Moral China in the Age of Reform【電子書籍】[ Jiwei Ci ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Three decades of dizzying change in China's economy and society have left a tangible record of successes and failures. Less readily accessible but of no less consequence is the story, as illuminated in this book, of what China's reform has done to its people as moral and spiritual beings. Jiwei Ci examines the moral crisis in post-Mao China as a mirror of deep contradictions in the new self as well as in society. He seeks to show that lack of freedom, understood as the moral and political conditions for subjectivity under modern conditions of life, lies at the root of these contradictions, just as enhanced freedom offers the only appropriate escape from them. Rather than a ready-made answer, however, freedom is treated throughout as a pressing question in China's search for a better moral and political culture.</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。 4,245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

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

Locked In The True Causes of Mass Incarceration-and How to Achieve Real Reform【電子書籍】[ John Pfaff ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>**A groundbreaking reassessment of the American prison system, challenging the widely accepted explanations for our exploding incarceration rates</p> <p>“A must-read for anyone who dreams of an America that is not the world’s most imprisoned nation.” ーChris Hayes, host of MSNBC’s <em>All In</em>**</p> <p>In <em>Locked In</em>, John Pfaff argues that the factors most commonly cited to explain mass incarceration -- the failed War on Drugs, draconian sentencing laws, an increasing reliance on private prisons -- tell us much less than we think. Instead, Pfaff urges us to look at other factors, especially a major shift in prosecutor behavior that occurred in the mid-1990s, when prosecutors began bringing felony charges against arrestees about twice as often as they had before.</p> <p>An authoritative, clear-eyed account of a national catastrophe, <em>Locked In</em> transforms our understanding of what ails the American system of punishment and ultimately forces us to reconsider how we can build a more equitable and humane society.</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。 2,520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

<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

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
