Book Synopsis Knowledge Economy in the Megalopolis by : T. R. Lakshmanan
Download or read book Knowledge Economy in the Megalopolis written by T. R. Lakshmanan and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book documents the broader economic consequences of multimodal transport investments, in particular the nature and scope of economic evolution and structural changes over several decades along the dynamic Boston-Washington multimodal transport corridor in the United States, an area christened by Jean Gottmann as the Megalopolis. The Megalopolis comprises some of the country's oldest settled areas, the densest mega-urban region, comprising locales of both the earliest industrialization, and of the modern knowledge economy all in the light of a transport infrastructure that has been vital to the region's success. The authors outline the many economic mechanisms through which transport investments in highways and other modes support economic growth and development along transport corridors while highlighting additional economic structural change processes such as the switch to a service economy, the rise of globalization and the increased importance of spatial proximity.

Book Synopsis Principles of Transportation Economics by : Kenneth Duncan Boyer
Download or read book Principles of Transportation Economics written by Kenneth Duncan Boyer and published by Addison Wesley. This book was released on 1998 with total page 440 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Principles of Transportation Economics is an introduction into the distinctive elements of transportation economics, describing how the standard pieces of economic analysis are applied in the transport sector. Boyer's text reflects transportation economics as it is taught and practiced today. Unlike its many predecessors, its arguments do not discuss the practice of economic regulation. Legal issues and concerns of regulatory process are no longer a central part of transportation economics, and this book reflects this shift. The analysis covers the modern developments of subsidy-free pricing and stand-alone costing.
Book Synopsis Capitalism, Politics, and Railroads in Prussia, 1830-1870 by : James M. Brophy
Download or read book Capitalism, Politics, and Railroads in Prussia, 1830-1870 written by James M. Brophy and published by . This book was released on 1998 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work examines the politics of moneymaking in the railroad industry and the relationship of railroad entrepreneurs with the conservative Prussian state during the industry's critical phase of growth and consolidation. James M. Brophy explores the pivotal role the business politics of the railroad industry played in Prussian industrialization, state building, and bourgeois political culture. Using the railroad industry as the basis on which to construct a larger argument about the role of the capitalist class in reconstituting the Prussian-German state, Brophy breaks new ground in locating the informal, bureaucratic, and parliamentary political spheres businessmen infiltrated and the legislative issues they influenced. Capitalism, Politics, and Railroads in Prussia, 1830-1870 reassesses how business activity shaped political culture, and throws new light on the impact of the economy on state organizations. This study will interest scholars of modern German and European history, business history, and the history of the railroad, as well as political science and economics.
