Book Synopsis War, Peace, and Prosperity in the Name of God by : Murat Iyigun
Download or read book War, Peace, and Prosperity in the Name of God written by Murat Iyigun and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2015-05-07 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In "Conflict, Peace, and Prosperity in the Name of God," Murat Iyigun explores how longer-term developments influenced the spread of monotheistic religions and how these trends affected other societies and religions. He explores with the statistical methods of economics the way religions shaped the development of societies and framed the conflicts between and within them. Specifically, he asks why and how political power and organized religion became so swiftly and successfully intertwined, and then examines the role of religion in conflict historically, as well as the sociopolitical, demographic, and economic effects of religiously motivated conflicts." Conflict, Peace, and Prosperity in the Name of God "breaks exciting new ground in our understanding of religion and societies, and the conflicts between them."
Book Synopsis Security and Development by : Robert Picciotto
Download or read book Security and Development written by Robert Picciotto and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-10-28 with total page 389 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The new contributions in this book, by acknowledged leaders in the field, examine the delivery of effective aid under fire, and securing the peace in environments where governance is fragile. They bridge the cultural divide between the security and development professions at a time of unprecedented global economic integration, geopolitical turbulence, and novel threats to international peace and security. More than a billion people live in countries where governance is weak, poverty is rampant, and economies are depressed. Failed and frail states provide ideal breeding grounds for civil strife, criminality, and "new wars" that target civilians, use children as combatants, and commit massive human rights violations. The new security risks loom within national borders, while the capacity of the international community to intervene 'behind borders' remains inadequate. Policy making for security still relies heavily on military responses. Yet military responses cannot address, and may even worsen, the social and cultural antecedents of civil strife and social resentment. Similarly, development aid policy and practice are poorly adapted to the new realities of frail governance and insecure operating environments in aid recipient countries. This book was previously published as a special issue of the leading journal Conflict, Security and Development.

Book Synopsis Pillars of Prosperity by : Timothy Besley
Download or read book Pillars of Prosperity written by Timothy Besley and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2011-08-28 with total page 393 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How nations can promote peace, prosperity, and stability through cohesive political institutions "Little else is required to carry a state to the highest degree of opulence from the lowest barbarism, but peace, easy taxes, and a tolerable administration of justice; all the rest being brought about by the natural course of things." So wrote Adam Smith a quarter of a millennium ago. Using the tools of modern political economics and combining economic theory with a bird's-eye view of the data, this book reinterprets Smith's pillars of prosperity to explain the existence of development clusters—places that tend to combine effective state institutions, the absence of political violence, and high per-capita incomes. To achieve peace, the authors stress the avoidance of repressive government and civil conflict. Easy taxes, they argue, refers not to low taxes, but a tax system with widespread compliance that collects taxes at a reasonable cost from a broad base, like income. And a tolerable administration of justice is about legal infrastructure that can support the enforcement of contracts and property rights in line with the rule of law. The authors show that countries tend to enjoy all three pillars of prosperity when they have evolved cohesive political institutions that promote common interests, guaranteeing the provision of public goods. In line with much historical research, international conflict has also been an important force behind effective states by fostering common interests. The absence of common interests and/or cohesive political institutions can explain the existence of very different development clusters in fragile states that are plagued by poverty, violence, and weak state capacity.

Book Synopsis Gold, Peace, and Prosperity by : Ron Paul
Download or read book Gold, Peace, and Prosperity written by Ron Paul and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2011-01-01 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: LARGE PRINT EDITION! More at LargePrintLiberty.com The book is a quick read that covers the whole history of monetary destruction, providing information that most people have never heard or thought about. In that sense, it is the perfect conversation starter, and it could inspire more reading and activism for sound money. Author Ron Paul has been the leading champion of sound money in the Congress. He explains why sound money has meant the gold standard. The monograph is written in the clearest possible terms with the goal of explaining the basics of paper money and its effects of inflation, business cycles, and government growth. He maps out a plan to bring about a dollar that is as good as gold, one that would be protected against manipulation by government and central bankers. Part of that strategy is the minting of a new gold one but the more far-reaching plan involves a redefinition of the dollar and complete monetary competition. This monograph first appeared in 1981, and it has been in wide distribution ever since. But we've never had an edition this beautiful, this affordable, and this handy.

Book Synopsis Mindanao: The Long Journey To Peace And Prosperity by : Paul Hutchcroft
Download or read book Mindanao: The Long Journey To Peace And Prosperity written by Paul Hutchcroft and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2018-02-14 with total page 341 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Across more than four decades, the conflict between the national government and Muslim liberation forces in the southern Philippines has killed tens of thousands and displaced millions. Two landmark agreements under the presidency of Benigno S Aquino III — the first in 2012 and the second in 2014 — raised high hopes that peace might finally be on the way. But the peace process stalled, and has yet to regain momentum, after a botched counterterrorism operation in early 2015.This volume provides both in-depth examination of the latest stage of a still-ongoing peace process as well as richly textured analysis of the historical, political, and economic context underlying one of the most enduring conflicts in the world. It is thus an extremely important foundational resource in the continuing quest for peace and prosperity in Mindanao.
Book Synopsis Peace and Prosperity in an Age of Incivility by : William Eric Davis
Download or read book Peace and Prosperity in an Age of Incivility written by William Eric Davis and published by University Press of America. This book was released on 2006 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Peace and Prosperity in an Age of Incivility presents a comprehensive theory about peace and prosperity. It asserts that three core political values-liberty, order, and equality- must be allocated by societies through law and policy. This book shows that the optimal allocation is pure balance. Balance of values provides the origin of the "democratic peace," the observation that democracies rarely fight each other and when they do, it is brief, does not escalate, and quickly results in a diplomatic resolution. By building on simple forms of spatial and game theories, this stunning analysis shows that the democratic peace is a "Nash equilibrium," where no player has an incentive to deviate from the solution, given the choices of other "players." Democracy, because it fosters compromise, drives the political values of liberty, order, and equality to intersect in perfect, or at least relative, balance. Maximum peace and prosperity is the consequence of balancing critical values. A nation's level of peace and prosperity, while perhaps not great, will be no greater than when these core values are in balance.

Book Synopsis Peace Through Entrepreneurship by : Steven R. Koltai
Download or read book Peace Through Entrepreneurship written by Steven R. Koltai and published by Brookings Institution Press. This book was released on 2016-08-30 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Joblessness is the root cause of the global unrest threatening American security. Fostering entrepreneurship is the remedy. The combined weight of American diplomacy and military power cannot end unrest and extremism in the Middle East and other troubled regions of the world, Steven Koltai argues. Koltai says an alternative approach would work: investing in entrepreneurship and reaping the benefits of the jobs created through entrepreneurial startups. From 9/11 and the Arab Spring to the self-proclaimed Islamic caliphate, instability and terror breed where young people cannot find jobs. Koltai marshals evidence to show that joblessness—not religious or cultural conflict—is the root cause of the unrest that vexes American foreign policy and threatens international security. Drawing on Koltai’s stint as senior adviser for Entrepreneurship in Secretary Hillary Clinton’s State Department, and his thirty-year career as a successful entrepreneur and business executive, Peace through Entrepreneurship argues for the significant elevation of entrepreneurship in the service of foreign policy; not rural microfinance or mercantile trading but the scalable stuff of Silicon Valley and Sam Walton, generating the vast majority of new jobs in economies large and small. Peace through Entrepreneurship offers a nonmilitary, long-term solution at a time of disillusionment with Washington’s “big development” approach to unstable and underdeveloped parts of the world—and when the new normal is fear of terrorist attacks against Western targets, beheadings in Syria, and jihad. Extremism will not be resolved by a war on terror. The answer, Koltai shows, is stimulating entrepreneurial economic opportunities for the virtually limitless supply of desperate, unemployed young men and women leading lives of endless economic frustration.

Book Synopsis Peace, Prosperity, and the Coming Holocaust by : Dave Hunt
Download or read book Peace, Prosperity, and the Coming Holocaust written by Dave Hunt and published by . This book was released on 2008-11-01 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: STOCK MARKET CRASH FEDERAL BANK BAILOUT NEW WORLD ORDER First volume in Dave Hunt Classic Series now available! Peace, Prosperity, and the Coming Holocaust Planet Earth is on the brink of an incredible change...but for good or evil? Will there be total economic collapse followed by nuclear holocaust? So begins the dust-jacket copy to Dave Hunts 1983 best-seller. Twenty-five years ago, this title stood unique on conservative bookshelves crowded with doom and gloom predictions for the future U.S. economy. Though the Reaganomics of President Ronald Reagan 1980-1988 withstood the test of time, the economic turnaround of the 1980s and the prosperity it generated for years to come has since been recast as a decade of greed by those in power who now seek to spread the wealth around. Now, over two decades later, the stock market crash, sub-prime mortgage crisis, and scandalous trillion-dollar bank bailout of 2008combined with the election of a liberal President with radical, socialist-revolutionary definitions of hope and changehave caused many to agree that the doom and gloom prophesies of the 1970s and 80s are now being fulfilled, and the worst may be yet to come. Once more, both rampant speculation and dire circumstance are causing a growing number of Christians and non-Christians to dust off Gods Word in search of answers to anxious questions: Are capitalism and free enterprise dead? Will a new economic world order be established prior to the reign of Antichrist? Will Marxism prevail as our next form of government? Have the outrageous conspiracy theories of the past several decades regarding the planned, subversive dismantling of U.S. sovereignty and independence in order to bring about global government been now cast asideor vindicated? Are the current geo-political and economic signs of the times indicators of the prophesied Last Days and the soon return of Jesus Christ for His church? Whats next on the prophetic calendar? In this timely reprint of Dave Hunts classic 1983 work, the author holds a remarkably steady balance between history and biblical prophecy that has withstood the test of time. The Bible declares that one-world government and universal New Age religion are coming. When we take Gods Word seriously, says noted author and cult expert Dave Hunt, a door swings open to fascinating new insights...provided only that we take into consideration certain factors that most experts on the futureboth Christian and nonchristianhave overlooked. This is no ordinary gloom-and-doom forecast, but a startling revelation of facts not commonly known. Readers will gain valuable insight for todayand tomorrowfrom this fascinating perspective Dave Hunt calls a contrary scenario.
