Book Synopsis Governing the $5 Trillion Economy by : Herbert Stein
Download or read book Governing the $5 Trillion Economy written by Herbert Stein and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 1989 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is an enormous concern today about the Federal budget, and almost all of it begins and ends with the deficit as the problem. But as eminent economist Herbert Stein argues in Governing the $5 Trillion Economy, the solutions most often proposed are escapist. Freezes, across-the-board cuts, or constitutional amendents all fail to take into account the real needs of the nation and, worse yet, focus too narrowly on the Federal budget. Stein contends that it is not enough for the government to manage only the Federal budget. The government, in cooperation with private planners, must begin to manage the whole output of the nation, which currently runs at almost five trillion dollars. It is only when planners can make choices between allocating resources either from the public sector (the Federal budget) or the private sector (industry or individuals), Stein says, that those decisions that benefit the nation as a whole will be made. For instance, health care planners should be able to choose between appropriating Federal money for Medicare and mandating company-paid employee health care plans. This would allow the government to reduce expenditures while still meeting its goal of better health for all citizens. Governing the $5 Trillion Economy is not a partisan argument for a specific set of economic policies, but an insightful prescription for improving the policy process no matter what the aims of the government. Written by one of America's leading authorities on national economic policy, this trenchant volume will be required reading for planners in government and the private sector as well as anyone interested in the future of the American economy.

Book Synopsis To Govern the Globe by : Alfred W. McCoy
Download or read book To Govern the Globe written by Alfred W. McCoy and published by Haymarket Books. This book was released on 2021-11-16 with total page 375 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a tempestuous narrative that sweeps across five continents and seven centuries, this book explains how a succession of catastrophes—from the devastating Black Death of 1350 through the coming climate crisis of 2050—has produced a relentless succession of rising empires and fading world orders. During the long centuries of Iberian and British imperial rule, the quest for new forms of energy led to the development of the colonial sugar plantation as a uniquely profitable kind of commerce. In a time when issues of race and social justice have arisen with pressing urgency, the book explains how the plantation’s extraordinary profitability relied on a production system that literally worked the slaves to death, creating an insatiable appetite for new captives that made the African slave trade a central feature of modern capitalism for over four centuries. After surveying past centuries roiled by imperial wars, national revolutions, and the struggle for human rights, the closing chapters use those hard-won insights to peer through the present and into the future. By rendering often-opaque environmental science in lucid prose, the book explains how climate change and changing world orders will shape the life opportunities for younger generations, born at the start of this century, during the coming decades that will serve as the signposts of their lives—2030, 2050, 2070, and beyond.

Book Synopsis India and the Knowledge Economy by : Carl J. Dahlman
Download or read book India and the Knowledge Economy written by Carl J. Dahlman and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2005-01-01 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In the global knowledge economy of the twenty-first century, India's development policy challenges will require it to use knowledge more effectively to raise the productivity of agriculture, industry, and services and reduce poverty. India has made tremendous strides in its economic and social development in the past two decades. Its impressive growth in recent years-8.2 percent in 2003-can be attributed to the far-reaching reforms embarked on in 1991 and to opening the economy to global competition. In addition, India can count on a number of strengths as it strives to transform itself into a knowledge-based economy-availability of skilled human capital, a democratic system, widespread use of English, macroeconomic stability, a dynamic private sector, institutions of a free market economy; a local market that is one of the largest in the world; a well-developed financial sector; and a broad and diversified science and technology infrastructure, and global niches in IT. But India can do more-much more-to leverage its strengths and grasp today's opportunities. India and the Knowledge Economy assesses India's progress in becoming a knowledge economy and suggests actions to strengthen the economic and institutional regime, develop educated and skilled workers, create an efficient innovation system, and build a dynamic information infrastructure. It highlights that to get the greatest benefits from the knowledge revolution, India will need to press on with the economic reform agenda that it put into motion a decade ago and continue to implement the various policy and institutional changes needed to accelerate growth. In so doing, it will be able to improve its international competitivenessand join the ranks of countries that are making a successful transition to the knowledge economy."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Governing the Global Economy explores the dynamic interaction between politics and economics, between states and markets and between international and domestic politics. The contributors study how the governance of the global economy is shaped by interaction between international institutions, domestic politics and multinational enterprises, from a wide range of theoretical perspectives and methods. Presenting a fresh approach to the study of international political economy, this volume covers: the systemic characteristics of the liberal world order, the role of international institutions, domestic economic politics and policies the strategies and behaviour of multinational enterprises. The volume also includes topical discussion of the challenges to the global economy from the recent financial crisis and analysis of economic politics, in particular the regions of Africa and Europe as well as the countries of Japan and South Korea. With contributions from prominent scholars in political science, economics and business studies, who have all contributed greatly to advancing the study of political economy over the last decade, Governing the Global Economy aims to bridge the gap between undergraduate textbooks and advanced theory. It is essential reading for all students and scholars of international political economy and globalization.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Structural transformation depends not only on how much countries export but also on what they export and with whom they trade. This paper breaks new ground in analyzing India’s exports by the technological content, quality, sophistication, and complexity of the export basket. We identify five priority areas for policies: (1) reduction of trade costs, at and behind the border; (2) further liberalization of FDI including through simplification of regulations and procedures; (3) improving infrastructure including in urban areas to enhance manufacturing and services in cities; (4) preparing labor resources (skills) and markets (flexibility) for the technological progress that will shape jobs in the years ahead; and (5) creating an enabling environment for innovation and entrepreneurship to draw the economy into higher productivity activities.

Book Synopsis The Current Era: Evaluating Nine Years of Governance and Controversies by : vigilant
Download or read book The Current Era: Evaluating Nine Years of Governance and Controversies written by vigilant and published by Blue Rose Publishers. This book was released on 2024-03-02 with total page 147 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When there was a change of regime at the centre in 2014, his interest emerged to watch the Modi government that came with an absolute majority. His inquisitive mind started watching the government since the beginning to know how radically they mobilized the people to get 31 per cent and 37 per cent of total votes cast in 2014 and 2019. He kept on studying the promises Modi made and his failures in fulfilling them, yet able to continue in the 2019 general election. The magic wand was not the economic performance and his so-called welfare measures, but the oratory marvel of mobilizing people and dividing the people into religious and divisive lines of caste, creed, sex, and region. The author's first monumental work was on “Economic Consequences and Overall Implications of BJP Government during 2014-19.” This work is an extension of nine years of his critical study of the style of Modi's functioning. Modi is very apt in promising but very renege in implementing. But once someone achieves power, he does not want to leave. Modi is also not unlike this. Although Modi had a very humble start, he has developed an authoritarian style in his functioning. The author observes that his charisma is waning and the coming general election would be most difficult for him to continue as PM, lest he improves his style of functioning.
Book Synopsis Political Governance, Economic Pursuit, Global Hegemony, and Environment; China, India, and the World by : Kartik Roy
Download or read book Political Governance, Economic Pursuit, Global Hegemony, and Environment; China, India, and the World written by Kartik Roy and published by Balboa Press. This book was released on 2023-01-12 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This treatise presents a critical discourse on the formulation and implementation of economic development policies as well as on the outcome of the implementation of such policies in terms of the attainment of the (i) rate of economic growth and of the (ii) rise in the size of GDP and of the (iii) attainment of economic and social wellbeing of the citizenry of both China and India. The author has analyzed the pattern of economic development of China and India in terms of the (i) growth in factors of production and of the (ii) growth in expenditures. The reasons for the spectacular rise in economic power of authoritarian China and the subdued rise in economic power of highly decentralized democratic India have been explained. The growth and development outcome story of China shows that the limited political freedom of citizens and of officials of provincial governments has acted as a panacea for the realization of the country’s developmental goals but in India, the unlimited and uncontrolled political freedom of citizens and provincial rulers has acted as a powerful recipe for the growth of anarchy and for the realization of circumscribed goals of economic development. In 1970, the per capita income of China and India stood at $US 70.00 and $US 60.00 but in 2022 the per capita income of China and India currently stands at $US 12,536.00 and $US 2691.20. The share of India’s per capita income in China’s per capita income in 1970 stood at 85.71 percent. In 2022, the share of India’s per capita income in China’s per capita income has declined to 21.46 percent. In this book the author has discussed all these issues. Furthermore the author has also presented a short commentary on the possibility of the rapid decline of economic and political status of China by 2030 and of a steady rise of India as an economic and political Super Power.
