Book Synopsis China and the World Economy by : Yih-chyi Chuang
Download or read book China and the World Economy written by Yih-chyi Chuang and published by LIT Verlag Münster. This book was released on 2010 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: China's integration in the world economy is perceived as one of the major events in the world economy in recent decades. As a result of the large inflow of foreign direct investment (FDI), China has become one of the leading trade nations worldwide. China's opening to the outside world, privatization of state-owned enterprises, urban and rural industrial development, and pursuit of economic plus ecological policies (green GDP) are presented as key elements of the so-called socialist market economy of Chinese origin. The situation in China tends to present some very contradictory features: in terms of GDP per capita, China still belongs to the group of developing countries but, on the other hand, Chinese enterprises are set to become highly competitive - and active in the international business arena. China and the World Economy is a topic-oriented edition of the bi-annual journal, Berliner China-Hefte/Chinese History and Society, which analyzes issues related to China's integration in the world economy and the related impacts. Employing interdisciplinary approaches, the authors ask whether the driving force of global economic trends will lead to profound changes, not only in foreign and domestic business, but also in China's overall economic and societal development: what kinds of new trends can be identified, for example, in the fields of investment, innovation, trade and finance? How are institutional, regional and/or environmental changes observed at global and domestic levels? And, consequently, how do these trends introduce new analytical perspectives on China's economic rise after three decades of reform?

Book excerpt: As a province of our country, how does Guangdong support the idea of working together to build a human community with a shared future? It is a question worthy of our deep thinking. The guiding opinions came at a time when General Secretary Xi’s important instructions for Guangdong’s work. General secretary Xi Jinping asked Guangdong to take the lead in the four areas. It undoubtedly pointed out the direction for Guangdong to continue to play an important role in the construction of socialism with Chinese characteristics. Only in this way can we make due contributions to the cause of Reform and Opening up, and then to the cause of Working Together to Build a Human Community with A Shared Future. The original aspiration of Working Together to Build a Human Community with A Shared Future lies in the pursuit of peace and development, which is the common aspiration of all mankind for more than 100 years. Xi Jinping said, “We should draw on the lessons of history. Historian told us long ago that rapid economic development makes social reform inevitable; but people tend to support the former while resisting the latter”. In this process, China has been in the forefront of the world in many areas. This kind of courage, boldness and achievement in the forefront of the world is not only reflected in the proposition of working together to build a human community with a shared future, but also in the national economic strength, scientific and technological progress, cultural soft power and other fields that support this great cause.

Book Synopsis Critique of Urbanization by : Neil Brenner
Download or read book Critique of Urbanization written by Neil Brenner and published by Birkhäuser. This book was released on 2016-12-05 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Urbanization is transforming the planet, within and beyond cities, at all spatial scales. In this book, Neil Brenner mobilizes the tools of critical urban theory to deconstruct some of the dominant urban discourses of our time, which naturalize, and thus depoliticize, the enclosures, exclusions, injustices and irrationalities of neoliberal urbanism. In so doing, Brenner advocates a constant reinvention of the framing categories, methods and assumptions of critical urban theory in relation to the rapidly mutating geographies of capitalist urbanization. Only a theory that is dynamic—which is constantly being transformed in relation to the restlessly evolving social worlds and territorial landscapes it aspires to grasp—can be a genuinely critical theory.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 13 Kapiteln bieten die Ausstellung und der dazugehörige Katalog einen tiefgreifenden Einblick in das kosmopolitische Denken von Joseph Beuys, wie es sich in seinen Aktionen manifestiert, die in Form von Videoprojektionen und Fotografien präsentiert werden. Denn dort – als handelnde, sprechende und sich bewegende Figur – untersuchte Beuys die zentrale und radikale Idee seines erweiterten Kunstbegriffs: »Jeder Mensch ist ein Künstler«. Das Ziel seines universalistischen Ansatzes war es, die Gesellschaft von Grund auf zu erneuern. Bis heute ist sein Einfluss in künstlerischen und politischen Diskursen spürbar. In der Ausstellung treten zeitgenössische Künstler*innen neben Vertreter*innen aus den unterschiedlichsten Bereichen der Gesellschaft mit dem agierenden Beuys in einen vielschichtigen, transkulturellen Dialog. Von heute aus bestätigen, befragen und erweitern sie seine Thesen zu den Möglichkeiten einer von der Kunst her gedachten Zukunft.
