Book Synopsis Greening Industries in Newly Industrializing Economies by : Peter Ho
Download or read book Greening Industries in Newly Industrializing Economies written by Peter Ho and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-02-25 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 2006. Over the past decades, the world has witnessed the profound transformation of China, Vietnam, Taiwan and Singapore from impoverished developing regions into strong and internationally competitive economies. Also dubbed Newly Industrializing Economies (NIEs), it has become obvious that their rapid development has come at a price. Contrary to their economic successes, these NIEs have been much less successful in terms of ecological sustainability and environmental protection. A critical question in this respect is: how can the state effect the greening of industries and business without inhibiting economic growth? Some scholars have argued that NIEs are situated at an unique juncture: they have an unparalleled opportunity to ?nd different development paths and in so doing to provide models that other countries could follow. With the right policy mix, they might achieve rapid economic development while avoiding environmental degradation on the scale of that created by the United States, Europe-a Union member countries, and other earlier industrialized nations. “Doing it right the ?rst time” – by installing clean technologies and developing the capacity and the governance style to enforce environmental regulations – could lead to “leapfrogging” the development process, and building industrial economies that are both competitive and more sustainable than those economies with an older industrial base. This edited volume examines these issues through case-studies from China, Vietnam, Taiwan and Singapore. It is argued that the NIEs – ?rst and second generations alike – are not truly situated in a more favourable position that allows leapfrogging in the greening of industries. This book brings together a team of leading experts in their ? eld, ranging from development studies, sociology, political studies, and economics. It will be of interest to a wide readership of students and professionals concerned with development in contemporary Asia, with particular reference to environmental studies, industrial pollution control, social movements, and developmental state theory.

Book Synopsis Nobody Said Not to Go by : Ken Cuthbertson
Download or read book Nobody Said Not to Go written by Ken Cuthbertson and published by Open Road Media. This book was released on 2016-03-22 with total page 419 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A rip-roaring bio” of the trailblazing New Yorker journalist that “explore[s] both the passion and dissatisfaction that fueled Hahn’s wanderlust” (Entertainment Weekly). Emily Hahn first challenged traditional gender roles in 1922 when she enrolled in the University of Wisconsin’s all-male College of Engineering, wearing trousers, smoking cigars, and adopting the nickname “Mickey.” Her love of writing led her to Manhattan, where she sold her first story to the New Yorker in 1929, launching a sixty-eight-year association with the magazine and a lifelong friendship with legendary editor Harold Ross. Imbued with an intense curiosity and zest for life, Hahn traveled to the Belgian Congo during the Great Depression, working for the Red Cross; set sail for Shanghai, becoming a Chinese poet’s concubine; had an illegitimate child with the head of the British Secret Service in Hong Kong, where she carried out underground relief work during World War II; and explored newly independent India in the 1950s. Back in the United States, Hahn built her literary career while also becoming a pioneer environmentalist and wildlife conservator. With a rich understanding of social history and a keen eye for colorful details and amusing anecdotes, author Ken Cuthbertson brings to life a brilliant, unconventional woman who traveled fearlessly because “nobody said not to go.” Hahn wrote hundreds of acclaimed articles and short stories as well as fifty books in many genres, and counted among her friends Rebecca West, Ernest Hemingway, Dorothy Parker, James Thurber, Jomo Kenyatta, and Madame and General Chiang Kai-shek.

Book Synopsis The Credit Valley Railway (Classic Reprint) by : Credit Valley Railway George Laidlaw
Download or read book The Credit Valley Railway (Classic Reprint) written by Credit Valley Railway George Laidlaw and published by . This book was released on 2015-06-29 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Credit Valley Railway The Credit Valley Railway Company has submitted a Petition to the Lieut. - Governor in Council. Together with the Petition, the Annual Report and a statement by the President and Directors were submitted to His Honour. These last will be found in the Appendix, as will the main features of the Petition, which, having called attention to the cheapness and excellence of the line, the rapid progress which has been made, and to other considerations, submits that the minimum rate of Provincial aid to Railways - namely, $2,000 per mile - has been proved to be wholly insufficient, and begs that the subsidy may be increased to $3,500; and that a further subsidy of the same amount may be granted for the portion of the railway Dot hitherto aided, and that less onerous conditions should be imposed - as, for instance, that payment should be made on completion of 10 or 20 miles of continuous grading, providing it were done at such points on the route as would make continuous connexion with existing lines of railway. These requests will not seem extravagant when the whole situation is taken in. Mr. Potter, the President of the Grand Trunk Railway, has aimed his cannon at Canada, and from the column of the Times, where Baron Grant's schemes used to be puffed, he seeks to shell the credit of the country. Nor has he been wholly unsuccessful, though his machinations have resulted in a spirited policy on the part of the Quebec Government, which will bring about with more speed and more certainty one of the events he sought to prevent taking place. He has been able to damage railway prospects in the London market; but his policy was shortsighted. Mr. Mackenzie has shown what ho thinks of the matter; and it is not likely that the Government of Ontario, any more than the Government of Quebec, will sit quietly by while Mr. Potter acts as if Canada was made for the Grand Trunk, instead of the Grand Trunk for Canada.

Book Synopsis Princeton, 1746-1896 by : Thomas Jefferson Wertenbaker
Download or read book Princeton, 1746-1896 written by Thomas Jefferson Wertenbaker and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2014-07-14 with total page 475 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published fifty years ago, Princeton, 1746-1896 has taken its place as one of the best institutional histories in America. Yet the book is more than an institutional history just as Princeton University, with its complex religious and political roots and impressive list of faculty and alumni, is more than simply a college. Princeton, 1746-1896 will be valued by some readers as a rich and well-documented commentary on education in early America, and by others as a fascinating collection of biographies of some of the more influential people in American history, including Princeton University President and, later, U. S. President, Woodrow Wilson. Originally published in 1946. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.
Book Synopsis Korean Endgame by : Selig S. Harrison
Download or read book Korean Endgame written by Selig S. Harrison and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2009-02-10 with total page 440 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nearly half a century after the fighting stopped, the 1953 Armistice has yet to be replaced with a peace treaty formally ending the Korean War. While Russia and China withdrew the last of their forces in 1958, the United States maintains 37,000 troops in South Korea and is pledged to defend it with nuclear weapons. In Korean Endgame, Selig Harrison mounts the first authoritative challenge to this long-standing U.S. policy. Harrison shows why North Korea is not--as many policymakers expect--about to collapse. And he explains why existing U.S. policies hamper North-South reconciliation and reunification. Assessing North Korean capabilities and the motivations that have led to its forward deployments, he spells out the arms control concessions by North Korea, South Korea, and the United States necessary to ease the dangers of confrontation, centering on reciprocal U.S. force redeployments and U.S. withdrawals in return for North Korean pullbacks from the thirty-eighth parallel. Similarly, he proposes specific trade-offs to forestall the North's development of nuclear weapons and missile delivery systems, calling for the withdrawal of the U.S. nuclear umbrella in conjunction with agreements to denuclearize Korea embracing China, Russia, and Japan. The long-term goal of U.S. policy, he argues, should be the full disengagement of U.S. combat forces from Korea as part of regional agreements insulating the peninsula from all foreign conventional and nuclear forces. A veteran journalist with decades of extensive firsthand knowledge of North Korea and long-standing contacts with leaders in Washington, Seoul, and Pyongyang, Harrison is perfectly placed to make these arguments. Throughout, he supports his analysis with revealing accounts of conversations with North Korean, South Korean, and U.S. leaders over thirty-five years. Combining probing scholarship with a seasoned reporter's on-the-ground experience and insights, he has given us the definitive book on U.S. policy in Korea--past, present, and future.
Book Synopsis Remember Me To Lebanon by : Evelyn Shakir
Download or read book Remember Me To Lebanon written by Evelyn Shakir and published by Syracuse University Press. This book was released on 2015-02-01 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Evelyn C. Shakir paints tales that are rich in history and background. She sets her stories in different eras, from the 1960s to the present, peopled with Lebanese women of different ages, sometimes writing letters, often reminiscing, looking back as far as the turn of the century. In different ways, these first and second-generation women struggle with feminist issues overshadowed by the demands of dual cultures. In Young Ali a teenager tries to listen to her beloved father’s time-honored tales of males in friendship and marriage. Aggie of House Calls is a deceased matriarch who returns to haunt her family with reminders of the customs she fought to uphold while alive. Shakir’s other heroines include a thrice-divorced thirty-year-old woman quibbling with a modern matchmaker, an elderly non-Lebanese woman who spies on Muslim neighbors in the wake of 9/11, and a traditional wife and mother who thinks she has found a route out of Old World womanly duties. Many of the authors’s women grapple with reclaiming or abandoning ancestral demands, and finessing age-old male-female relationships. In Oh, Lebanon a war-haunted Lebanese-born woman willfully departs from the mores of her upbringing, with surprising results. With agile humor and emotional truth, Shakir offers multiple perspectives on Lebanese women trying to change roles in a new landscape without surrendering cultural identity.
