Download or read book The Globalizers written by Ngaire Woods and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2014-11-15 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The IMF and the World Bank have integrated a large number of countries into the world economy by requiring governments to open up to global trade, investment, and capital. They have not done this out of pure economic zeal. Politics and their own rules and habits explain much of why they have presented globalization as a solution to challenges they have faced in the world economy.—from the Introduction The greatest success of the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank has been as globalizers. But at whose cost? Would borrowing countries be better off without the IMF and World Bank? This book takes readers inside these institutions and the governments they work with. Ngaire Woods brilliantly decodes what they do and why they do it, using original research, extensive interviews carried out across many countries and institutions, and scholarship from the fields of economics, law, and politics. The Globalizers focuses on both the political context of IMF and World Bank actions and their impact on the countries in which they intervene. After describing the important debates between U.S. planners and the Allies in the 1944 foundation at Bretton Woods, she analyzes understandings of their missions over the last quarter century. She traces the impact of the Bank and the Fund in the recent economic history of Mexico, of post-Soviet Russia, and in the independent states of Africa. Woods concludes by proposing a range of reforms that would make the World Bank and the IMF more effective, equitable, and just.

Book Synopsis Change Without Chaos by : Stanley Redwood
Download or read book Change Without Chaos written by Stanley Redwood and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2015-03-09 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Change without Chaos makes out a convincing case for fundamental constitutional reform in Jamaica and advances a template upon which this transformation can be attained. The central argument is grounded on the fact that the Jamaican economy has not been able to register substantial growth for over fifty years since independence in 1962 and currently has some of the most unflattering development indices in the entire Western Hemisphere. The book, which is grounded in extensive legal research, raises issues of persistent and pervasive class exploitation and a grossly iniquitous economic system, which continues to contribute to a scandalous income disparity and wealth transfer as elements that must be addressed urgently by a far-reaching review of the constitutional framework if the country is ever to realize any meaningful growth and development.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Does God exist? When God took me, the author, into the countless heavens, He said to me, “Come inside of me. Let's fly vertically. You shall experience how my existence and everything else began in detail.” At this point of dark eternity, God revealed and promised me, “Where you are standing now, there has never been any being, nor any human soul, before. You will be called my eternal heart. Return to mankind and reveal to them: Who I am. Reveal everything you have heard, seen and experienced. I will always be with you. A few thousand years ago, I appeared as a visible God on Mount Sinai. But My own chosen people did not recognize My value. Tell humanity and the German nation: I swear by your name, Zahid, that if you call my name and ask me to come to earth, I will appear on a mountain in Germany. Everyone who is on the mountain on that day will see me with their own eyes as a visible God. Prepare my children for this most supreme event.” God

Book Synopsis Adapting the United Nations to a Post-Modern Era by : W. Knight
Download or read book Adapting the United Nations to a Post-Modern Era written by W. Knight and published by Springer. This book was released on 2001-03-28 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume addresses the central theme of adjusting the United Nations system in light of, firstly, the broadening definition of security, secondly, a perceived shift from modernity to post-modernity; and finally, the contemporary debate about reform, adaptation and institutional learning in multilateral institutions during transnational periods. The UN has not been successful in learning appropriate lessons that could facilitate requisite changes to its structure and operations. Thus the authors in this study focus on the lessons learned from the organizations' recent performance in collective security, preventative diplomacy, preventative deployment, peacekeeping, peacemaking, peace maintenance, and international legal, environmental and trade regulation.

Download or read book Ethnic Conflict written by Stefan Wolff and published by Oxford University Press on Demand. This book was released on 2007 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why is it that Catholics and Protestants in Northern Ireland have been in perpetual conflict for thirty years when they can live and prosper together elsewhere? Why was there a bloody civil war in Bosnia and Herzegovina when Croats, Serbs, and Muslims had lived peacefully side-by-side fordecades? Why did nobody see and act upon the early warning signs of genocide in Rwanda that eventually killed close to a million people in a matter of weeks? What is it that makes Kashmir potentially worth a nuclear war between India and Pakistan?In recent years hardly a day has gone by when ethnic conflict in some part of the world has not made headline news. The violence involved in these conflicts continues to destabilize entire regions, hamper social and economic development, and cause unimaginable human suffering. And the extensivemedia coverage of these conflicts all too often raises important questions that it signally fails to answer.This book aims to fill this gap. Drawing on the author's long experience of studying such conflicts around the world and his involvment in attempts to resolve them, it provides an illuminating and accessible introduction to the origins, dynamics, and management of ethnic conflict. In doing so, ithelps explain the fundamental question underlying all these conflicts: why do nationalism and ethnicity still have such terrible power to turn neighbour against neighbour?
Book Synopsis The International Dimension of Genocide in Rwanda by : A. Klinghoffer
Download or read book The International Dimension of Genocide in Rwanda written by A. Klinghoffer and published by Springer. This book was released on 1998-09-28 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The mass killings in Rwanda in 1994 shocked the world but the international response was ineffective. The end of the Cold War had created a moral climate supportive of humanitarian intervention and enforcement of the Genocide Convention, but it had not produced adequate legal and structural mechanisms to carry out such action. The book examines the failures of the United Nations, the Organization of African Unity, regional states and major world powers either to prevent or terminate the genocide and draws lessons for intervention in future.
Book Synopsis Paths Without Glory by : James L. Newman
Download or read book Paths Without Glory written by James L. Newman and published by Potomac Books, Inc.. This book was released on 2010 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Few people have garnered so much enduring interest as Sir Richard Burton. A true polymath, Burton is best known today for his translations of the "Kama Sutra" and "Arabian Nights." Yet, Africa stood at the center of his adult life. The Burton-Speke expedition (1856 59) that put Lake Tanganyika on the map led to years of controversy over the source of the White Nile. From 1861 to 1864 Burton served as British consul in Fernando Po and traveled widely between Ghana and Angola. He wrote prodigiously and contributed some of the first detailed ethnographic accounts of Africa s peoples. In many ways, however, Africa proved to be Burton s undoing. Injuries and sickness sapped his strength, he made enemies in high places, and, ironically, even the discovery of Lake Tanganyika worked to his disadvantage. Increasingly frustrated and bitter, he turned to alcohol as a frequent remedy.In this fascinating story of the relationship between a man and a continent, geographer James L. Newman provides an intimate portrait of Burton through careful examination of his journals and biographers rich analyses. Delving deepest into Burton s later life and travels, Newman pinpoints the thematic mainstays of his career as a diplomat and explorer, namely his strong advocacy of aggressive imperial policies and his belief that race explained crucial human differences. Historians and scholars of the golden age of empire, as well as armchair adventurers, will not only discover what defined this famously enigmatic figure, but venture, themselves, into the heart of mid-nineteenth-century Africa.
