Book Synopsis The New Zealand Economy by : Ralph Lattimore
Download or read book The New Zealand Economy written by Ralph Lattimore and published by Auckland University Press. This book was released on 2013-11-01 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What drives economic growth in New Zealand? How has New Zealand been impacted by globalization and the financial crisis? What will shape future productivity and competitiveness? In this book, leading economists assemble key data to provide an analytical introduction to the contemporary New Zealand economy. Interpreting key economic indicators over time—gross domestic product and interest rates, population, employment and productivity levels, trade and investment, and government accounts—this examination focuses particularly on two issues: globalization and the rise of the Asian economies during the past 30 years, and the origins and continuing effects of the 2007&–08 global financial crisis. Rich with local data and case studies, this is a clear and concise assessment of the current structure and performance of New Zealand's economy from a historical and global perspective.
Book Synopsis Reclaiming the Future by : Jane Kelsey
Download or read book Reclaiming the Future written by Jane Kelsey and published by Bridget Williams Books. This book was released on 2015-12-21 with total page 479 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jane Kelsey’s exploration of the effects of globalisation on the New Zealand economy was eye-opening when published in 1999. She offered a trenchantly expressed response to the neoliberal slogan of the time, ‘There is no alternative.’ Kelsey’s analysis remains a critical yardstick for current policies and an alternative perspective on the development of global relationships. The recent global financial meltdown and subsequent recession give new relevance to her questions about globalisation’s consequences for sovereignty and democracy. Kelsey continues to offer a bold voice of challenge and critique, pointing the way for open-eyed engagement with the economic realities of the future.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New Zealand and the Global Economy looks at New Zealand's international economic relations over the past fifty years. The book analyses the changing nature of New Zealand's trade relations with the rest of the world, and shows how this has been an important engine for growth and development of New Zealand's economy and society. As well as the trade in goods, the book explores the growing importance of trade in services, and the inflows of capital and labour. It looks at relations with countries such as Australia, Japan, the United States and other countries in the Asia Pacific region. International trade relations have changed over time, reflecting a shift in the attitudes of both the Government and New Zealanders to the world and how they see their place in it.
Book Synopsis New Zealand And The World: Past, Present And Future by : Robert G Patman
Download or read book New Zealand And The World: Past, Present And Future written by Robert G Patman and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2017-12-28 with total page 518 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The aim of this book is to provide the reader with an overview of New Zealand's international relations. It is a country that has often shown an international presence that is out of proportion to the modest spectrum of national economic, military and diplomatic capabilities at its disposal.In this volume, the editors have called upon a range of specialists representing a range of views drawn from the worlds of academia, policy-making, and civil society. It is an attempt to present a rounded picture of New Zealand's place in the world, one that does not rely exclusively on any particular perspective. The book does not claim to be exhaustive. But it does seek to present a more wide-ranging treatment of New Zealand's foreign relations than has generally been the case in the past.Five broad themes help shape and organize the contributions to the text:
Download or read book The FIRE Economy written by Jane Kelsey and published by Bridget Williams Books. This book was released on 2015-07-13 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The FIRE economy – built on finance, insurance and real estate – is now the world’s principal source of wealth creation. Its rise has transformed our political, economic and social landscapes, supported by a neoliberal regime that celebrates markets, profit and risk. From rising inequality and ballooning household debt to a global financial crisis and fiscal austerity, the neoliberal ‘orthodoxy’ has brought instability and empowered the few. Yet it remains remarkably resilient, even resurgent, in New Zealand and abroad. In 1995 Jane Kelsey set out a groundbreaking account of the neoliberal revolution in The New Zealand Experiment. Now she marshals an exceptional range of evidence to show how this transfer of wealth and power has been systematically embedded over three decades. Today organisations and commentators once at the vanguard of neoliberal reform, including the IMF and Financial Times journalist Martin Wolf, are warning the current model is unsustainable. A post-neoliberal era beckons. In The FIRE Economy Kelsey identifies the risks posed by FIRE and the barriers embedded neoliberalism presents to a progressive, post-neoliberal transformation – and urges us to act. This is a book New Zealand cannot afford to ignore.
Book Synopsis Expanding Our Horizons by : Paul Callister
Download or read book Expanding Our Horizons written by Paul Callister and published by New Zealand Planning. This book was released on 1991 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Whether we like it or not New Zealand is being increasingly linked into the world economy. Trade in goods, services, capital -- and the movement of people -- has become international ... This study gives a broad view of the process of globalisation and how it affects New Zealand. It looks at the links between trade in goods, services and capital, as well as the movement of people. It also raises some important issues: Is foreign investment increasing and, if so, is this good for New Zealand? Is the concept of "New Zealand made" valid any longer? How have the power balances shifted between consumers and producers, between government, businesses and communities, and between individual and groups of nations? Should barriers to the outside world be further reduced, particularly in the areas of foreign investment and the movement of people? How can New Zealand return to a "fully employed, high income society within an open, internationally competitive environment? This report does not attempt to answer all these questions, but sets the scene for more detailed analysis ... global issues are not just the concern of governments. Removing the barriers to the outside world means that everyone -- from policy-makers in firms, schools, and regional government, to iwi and individual households -- needs to understand the process of globalisation if we are to take advantage of it ..." -- Introduction (pages 1-2).

Download or read book Get off the Grass written by Shaun Hendy and published by Auckland University Press. This book was released on 2013-11-01 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a brilliant intellectual adventure that ranges from David Ricardo and Adam Smith to economic geography and the science of complex networks, Shaun Hendy and Paul Callaghan explore how New Zealanders can learn to live off knowledge rather than nature. The key to increasing New Zealand's prosperity, they argue, is innovation in high-tech niches. To catch up with the countries that lure young Kiwis away, New Zealand needs to start innovating like a city of four million people; it needs to start taking science seriously; it needs to start seeing its people as people of learning, not just of the land. Get off the Grass provides a readable introduction to a wide variety of ideas including economic geography, network theory, and complexity theory; offers unique insights into the New Zealand economy and its long-term prospects; adds to current debates worldwide about innovation, science, economic growth, and networks.

Because of both its wealth and external interests expand generate China’s economy will continue to grow strongly, resulting in significant challenges for leaders to negotiate.

Book Synopsis Globalization, Sport and Corporate Nationalism by : Jay Scherer
Download or read book Globalization, Sport and Corporate Nationalism written by Jay Scherer and published by Peter Lang. This book was released on 2010 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although New Zealand exists as a small (pop. 4.3 million), peripheral nation in the global economy, it offers a unique site through which to examine the complex, but uneven, interplay between global forces and long-standing national traditions and cultural identities. This book examines the profound impact of globalization on the national sport of rugby and New Zealand's iconic team, the All Blacks. Since 1995, the national sport of rugby has undergone significant change, most notably due to the New Zealand Rugby Union's lucrative and ongoing corporate partnerships with Rupert Murdoch's News Corporation and global sportswear giant Adidas. The authors explore these significant developments and pressures alongside the resulting tensions and contradictions that have emerged as the All Blacks, and other aspects of national heritage and indigenous identity, have been steadily incorporated into a global promotional culture. Following recent research in cultural studies, they highlight the intensive, but contested, commodification of the All Blacks to illuminate the ongoing transformation of rugby in New Zealand by corporate imperatives and the imaginations of marketers, most notably through the production of a complex discourse of corporate nationalism within Adidas's evolving local and global advertising campaigns.

Book Synopsis Corruption and the Global Economy by : Kimberly Ann Elliott
Download or read book Corruption and the Global Economy written by Kimberly Ann Elliott and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 1997-06-01 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The recently-adopted OECD convention outlawing bribery of foreign public officials is welcome evidence of how much progress has been made in the battle against corruption. The financial crisis in East Asia is an indication of how much remains to be done. Corruption is by no means a new issue but it has only recently emerged as a global issue. With the end of the Cold War, the pace and breadth of the trends toward democratization and international economic integration accelerated and expanded globally. Yet corruption could slow or even reverse these trends, potentially threatening economic development and political stability in some countries. As the global implications of corruption have grown, so has the impetus for international action to combat it. In addition to efforts in the OECD, the Organization of American States, the World Trade Organization, and the United Nations General Assembly, the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund have both begun to emphasize corruption as an impediment to economic development. This book includes a chapter by the Chairman of the OECD Working Group on Bribery discussing the evolution of the OECD convention and what is needed to make it effective. Other chapters address the causes and consequences of corruption, including the impact on investment and growth and the role of multinational corporations in discouraging bribery. The final chapter summarizes and also discusses some of the other anticorruption initiatives that either have been or should be adopted by governments, multilateral development banks, and other international organizations.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper assesses the impact of a disruption to capital inflows by examining past episodes of capital inflows in New Zealand and other countries. It also reviews the IMF's Global Economy Model (GEM), which is used to provide some estimates of the equilibrium relationship between New Zealand's real effective exchange rate and real commodity prices. The analysis also suggests that permanent changes in non-energy commodity prices can have a significant impact on New Zealand's equilibrium exchange rate.
Book Synopsis China, New Zealand, and the Complexities of Globalization by : Tim Beal
Download or read book China, New Zealand, and the Complexities of Globalization written by Tim Beal and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-12-12 with total page 301 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book examines the expansion of investment and trade between China and New Zealand, and its changing composition within the political framework, especially the 2008 Free Trade Agreement. Particular attention is paid to China’s volatile agrifood market, where New Zealand dairy products play an important role for both countries. The New Zealand-China economic relationship – asymmetrical and complementary, but with increasing competition from domestic production – is a case study of the complexities of globalization and the interplay of economic imperatives, political pressures and cultural factors. China is now New Zealand’s main economic partner and a major source of migrants, tourists and students. This proposed study on how New Zealand and China manage their grave dissimilarities and disparities in growing, ever close economic ties will be of interest to academics, policy analysts, economic/trade decision makers, and business practitioners.
