How has the bank grown and evolved in changing circumstances? How did ADB’s successive leaders promote reforms while preserving continuity with the efforts of their predecessors? ADB has played an important role in the transformation of Asia and the Pacific the past 50 years. As ADB continues to evolve and adapt to the region’s changing development landscape, the experiences highlighted in this book can provide valuable insight on how best to serve Asia and the Pacific in the future.
Book Synopsis Earth's Next Fifty Years by : Lyndon LaRouche
Download or read book Earth's Next Fifty Years written by Lyndon LaRouche and published by Executive Intelligence Review. This book was released on 2017-01-30 with total page 417 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Where do they get the money?” China and India are going to the Moon and Mars. Modern railroads are cutting across the empty expanses of Eurasia and Africa. “Poor countries” are doing amazing things while the “rich countries” of Europe and North America are in constant crisis or struggling. America used to have the world’s leading space program, a leading research program to develop the power source of the stars--thermonuclear fusion power. What happened to steel and auto? --family farms? What is different abroad? The difference abroad is not to be found in anything to do with money! More and more governments have decided that Lyndon LaRouche was right all along. Wealth does not derive from money but from the application of the human mind and body with the assistance of Hamiltonian credit to the physical building of a better future. In America where these concepts were developed, they have been suppressed in favor of “the magic of markets.” The concepts in the studies comprising this book, originally published around the turn of the 21st century, are now alive and growing among governing circles responsible for 80% of the world’s population. Isn’t it time that governing policy in America too should implement the ideas in this book and join hands with those nations who would love to work together with America to create a bright future for all?

Book Synopsis Aid, Trade and Development by : Constantine Michalopoulos
Download or read book Aid, Trade and Development written by Constantine Michalopoulos and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-11-27 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This enlightening book offers a comprehensive historical analysis of the main development challenges of the last half century and the international community’s response through aid and trade. Much has happened: the oil crises of the 1970s, the debt crises of the 1980s, the break-up of the Soviet Union in the 1990s, the Millennium Development Goals, the onslaught of Globalization and the rise of its opponents since the financial crisis of the 2000s. Through it all, development has spread and global poverty declined. The volume assesses the contributions and coherence of developing and developed country policies and the role played by global institutions entrusted with responsibilities to enhance trade and support development. The volume concludes with a focus on the prospects for the future and the changes needed to make globalization more equitable. With 50 years of professional experience in the World Bank, the WTO and bilateral aid agencies, Michalopoulos brings an insider’s perspective on the workings of these institutions and what needs to be done to make them more effective and responsive to changing global needs.

Book Synopsis How The West Was Lost by : Dambisa Moyo
Download or read book How The West Was Lost written by Dambisa Moyo and published by Penguin UK. This book was released on 2011-01-13 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How the West was Lost charts how over the last 50 years the most advanced and advantaged countries of the world have squandered their dominant position through a sustained catalogue of fundamentally flawed economic policies. It is these decisions that, along the way, have resulted in an economic and geo-political see-saw, which is now poised to tip in favour of the emerging world. By forging closer ties with the emerging economies, rethinking trade barriers, overhauling their tax systems to encourage savings rather than ravenous consumption, and specifically addressing the three essential ingredients for growth (capital, labour and technology) it might yet still be possible for the West to firmly get back in the race.
Book Synopsis Fifty Years of Bangladesh by : Rounaq Jahan
Download or read book Fifty Years of Bangladesh written by Rounaq Jahan and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-11-30 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fifty Years of Bangladesh portrays the multi-faceted dimensions of Bangladesh’s development journey, its economic and social transformation and political and cultural contestations. The book presents new empirical data supplemented with critical analysis of processes, actors and actions that have been the drivers of Bangladesh’s transformation and offers new ways of understanding Bangladesh. Organized in six sections, the book provides a multi-disciplinary, holistic and interrelated narrative of the Bangladesh story covering its economic and social transformation, the political history and changing cultural landscapes. It presents new empirical data and proposes new theoretical and analytical frameworks to explain the country’s complex and paradoxical developments. Capturing the vast landscape of changes that have taken place in different sectors of Bangladesh during the last fifty years, the contributors analyse the variety of Bangladesh’s experiences, its achievements as well as the shortfalls and mistakes. They propose new models and perspectives to ground Bangladesh’s developments, identify persistent and emerging challenges and suggest ways forward. A valuable addition to scholarship on Bangladesh, this book can be used as a reference in universities, research institutions and international development agencies interested in Development Studies, South Asian Studies and studies of the Global South.

Book Synopsis Indonesia and the Asian Development Bank by : Peter McCawley
Download or read book Indonesia and the Asian Development Bank written by Peter McCawley and published by Asian Development Bank. This book was released on 2020-06-01 with total page 311 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This publication is a history of the partnership between Indonesia and the Asian Development Bank (ADB). When Indonesia became a founding member of the bank in 1966, the country faced daunting challenges. In the five decades that passed, both Indonesia and ADB have evolved in remarkable ways. Indonesia developed rapidly through the late 1990s yet faced a difficult time of adjustment after the Asian financial crisis of 1997–1998. The country has since resumed growth in the last decade. For its part, ADB has widened its activities in Indonesia, transforming from a project-oriented bank into a broad-based development institution. This effective partnership reflects Indonesia’s success in working with the international community in the past 50 years.
Book Synopsis The Mauritian Paradox by : Ramtohul, Ramola
Download or read book The Mauritian Paradox written by Ramtohul, Ramola and published by University of Mauritius Press. This book was released on 2018-04-12 with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Speaking of Mauritius as an economic miracle has become a cliché, and with good reason: Its development since Independence in 1968 can easily be narrated as a rags-to-riches story. In addition, it is a stable democracy capable of containing the conflict potential inherent in its complex ethnic and religious demography. This book brings together some of the finest scholarship, domestic as well as foreign, on contemporary Mauritius, offering perspectives from constitutional law, cultural studies, sociology, archaeology, economics, social anthropology and more. While celebrating the indisputable, and impressive, achievements of the Mauritian nation on its fiftieth birthday, this book is far from toothless. Looking back inevitably implies looking ahead, and in order to do so, critical self-scrutiny is essential, to be able to learn from the mistakes of the past. The contributors raise fundamental questions concerning a broad range of issues, from the dilemmas of multiculturalism to the marginal role of women in public life, from the question of constitutional reform and the continued problem of corruption to the slow destruction of Mauritius’ joy and pride, namely the beauty and purity of its natural scenery. Taking stock of the first fifty years, this book also looks ahead to the next fifty years, giving some cues as to where Mauritius can and should aim in the next decades.

Book Synopsis A Fifty-Year Development Policy by : Lyndon LaRouche
Download or read book A Fifty-Year Development Policy written by Lyndon LaRouche and published by Executive Intelligence Review. This book was released on with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This 1983 proposal by Lyndon LaRouche is not just a technical array of (now mostly completed or rapidly developing toward completion) transformative projects aimed at bringing Indian-Pacific nations into the modern world, but one of the most detailed explications of LaRouche’s economic ideas. The fact that many Asian nations have eagerly adopted his ideas to leapfrog from poverty to the frontiers of science and space development, while the “leaders” of most of North America and Western Europe have fearfully clung to old discredited imperial geopolitical doctrines, underlines the importance and also the controversial nature of this work.
