The University of Michigan Press Transnational Capitalism in East Central Europes
Book SynopsisTrade ReviewTransnational Capitalism makes a groundbreaking contribution to the lively debate on how communist legacies have shaped both political and economic changes after 1989—and how these legacies have interacted with a variety of external actors, most importantly the European Union (EU) that emerged by the late 1990s as the main external driver of internal policy change.” —Milada Vachudova, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill ""This book makes an important contribution to the scholarly literature by enriching theories of state capacity, which tend to emphasize narrowly the advantages of state capacity for economic reform. This study instead provides nuance to such theories by showing that state capacity can be a ‘double-edged sword.’ On the one hand, states with high capacity can use this capacity to promote market-oriented behavior and generate more efficient outcomes. On the other, it can be used to shield critically important firms from restructuring. A further strength of this book is the extraordinary richness of the empirical discussions on the restructuring of East European steel after communism. The process tracing is done with such meticulous care that it leaves the reader with no doubt of the author’s very clear understanding and accurate characterization of the steel industry and its process of reform. Hence the book is not only useful for theorizing on state capacity, it is also a valuable resource for those wanting to understand better the historical record of heavy industry’s restructuring in the region.” —Hilary Appel, Claremont McKenna College

Random House USA Inc The Coming Collapse of China
Book SynopsisChina is hot. The world sees a glorious future for this sleeping giant, three times larger than the United States, predicting it will blossom into the world's biggest economy by 2010. According to Chang, however, a Chinese-American lawyer and China specialist, the People's Republic is a paper dragon. Peer beneath the veneer of modernization since Mao's death, and the symptoms of decay are everywhere: Deflation grips the economy, state-owned enterprises are failing, banks are hopelessly insolvent, foreign investment continues to decline, and Communist party corruption eats away at the fabric of society. Beijing's cautious reforms have left the country stuck midway between communism and capitalism, Chang writes. With its impending World Trade Organization membership, for the first time China will be forced to open itself to foreign competition, which will shake the country to its foundations. Economic failure will be followed by government collapse. Covering subjects from party p

A rich, highly readable examination of the seeds of poppies, trade, greed, grandeur and an international partnership that remains uneasy and perilous." -- Kirkus Reviews"A smart, riveting history of what has become the most important bilateral relationship in the world.... An all-around outstanding work of maritime history." -- Douglas Brinkley, author of Cronkite"Master storyteller Eric Jay Dolin brings to life the American genius for commerce and its essential connection to how the nation grew... this is a timely and well-told tale." -- Kenneth C. Davis, author of Don't Know Much About®History"Eric Jay Dolin has a special talent for unearthing the fascinating but forgotten origins of our current cultural obsessions and now hes done it again. This fast-paced and deeply researched book is a must-read for anyone interested in Americas long history of competition and cooperation with China." -- Debby Applegate, author of The Most Famous Man in America"A tantalizing high-sea yarn of fast-running clippers and murderous pirates and a profound meditation on an international relationship that still absorbs our attention today. Fresh, gripping, pelagically capacious." -- Yunte Huang, author of Charlie Chan"Fascinating, compelling, and engrossing." -- Joan Druett, author of Island of the Lost"Fast-moving... focuses on intriguing anecdotes and personal vignettes, featuring colorful subjects such as pirates, drug runners, and slave traders, as well as those engaged in more salubrious pursuits. ...[E]ntertaining." -- Publishers Weekly"This sweeping popular history... brews up a rich and satisfying narrative of the exotic intersection of the silk, tea, and opium trade and the missionary zeal that characterized America’s engagement with the still mysterious ‘Middle Kingdom’ in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. With a flair for dramatic and fast-paced storytelling, Dolin provides the reader with nuanced insights into everything from pirates, the world-changing impact of the silk trade, the British-Chinese Opium War of the 1840s, and the fearlessness (and naïveté) of the early missionaries to good old-fashioned tales of adventure on the high seas." -- Booklist"A diligent researcher… Dolin has uncovered some fascinating nuggets about the history of US-China trade." -- Matthew Price - Boston Globe"Fascinating and entertaining... masterful history... His work is well-researched, rich in illustrations and full of life." -- Tom Zelman - Minneapolis Star and Tribune"Lively biographical sketches, intriguing anecdotes and accounts of curious incidents… Dolin wrings so much drama, interest and humor out of this early period of U.S.-China relations. And what makes his achievement more notable still is that he makes the period come alive without turning the book into one devoted exclusively to opium, the topic that has the clearest dramatic potential and has gotten the most attention in works on the era." -- Jeffrey Wasserstrom - Chicago Tribune"Eric Jay Dolin... has produced another in a series of accessible, highly readable histories detailing the early adventures and impassioned drive that characterized early enterprise in America and set a path for what was to follow... Interesting, informative and entertaining." -- Rae Padilla Francoeur - GateHouse Media"Timely…Readers of Dolin’s award-winning books—Leviathan: The History of Whaling in America (2007) and Fur, Fortune, and Empire: The Epic History of the Fur Trade in America (2010)—will recognize in this newest work his distinctive style and his eye for iconic figures and vivid anecdotes…. Dolin is fully in his element when taking readers through an expert, richly anecdotal discussion of various intertwined China-related trades—whaling, sea skins, fur, tea, and opium." -- Eileen Scully - The New England Quarterly

Berrett-Koehler Publishers Trust: Creating the Foundation for
Book SynopsisEntrepreneurs in developing countries who assume they will have the same legal, governmental, and institutional protections as their counterparts in the West will fail. To succeed, they need to build trust within the existing structures--and this book shows how it''s done.Entrepreneurial ventures often fail in the developing world because of the lack of something taken for granted in the developed world: trust. Over centuries, the developed world has built customs and institutions such as enforceable contracts, an impartial legal system, and credible regulatory bodies--and even unofficial but respected sources of information such as Yelp and Consumer Reports--that have created a high level of what scholar and entrepreneur Tarun Khanna calls "ambient trust." This is not the case in the developing world. But Khanna shows that rather than become casualties of mistrust, smart entrepreneurs can adopt the mindset that, like it or not, it''s up to them to weave their own independent web of trust--with their employees, their partners, their clients, their customers, and society as a whole. This can be challenging, and it requires innovative approaches in places where the level of societal mistrust is so high that an official certification of quality simply arouses suspicion--and lowers sales! Using vivid examples from Brazil, China, India, Mexico, and elsewhere, Khanna''s stories show how entrepreneurs can build on existing customs and practices instead of trying to push against them. He highlights the role new technologies can play (but cautions that these are not panaceas) and explains how entrepreneurs can find dependable partners in national and local governments to create impact at scale.As far back as the 18th century, Adam Smith recognized trust as what Khanna calls "the hidden engine of economic progress." "Frankness and openness conciliate confidence," Smith wrote. "We trust the man who seems willing to trust us." That kind of confidence is critical to entrepreneurial success, but in the developing world entrepreneurs have to establish it through their own efforts. As Khanna puts it, "The entrepreneur must not just create, she must create the conditions to create."

Kumarian Press How the Aid Industry Works: An Introduction to
Book SynopsisInternational development is big business. Official global aid flows from North to South are over $100 billion annually. China and India, former aid recipients, are rapidly entering the field as aid providers themselves, and international charity is being redefined with the resources of private donors like the Gates Foundation, for example, outstripping the annual budget of long-time donors like the UK, Canada or the World Health Organization. Lacking in the literature on international development is an introductory text that provides an overview of the practices of the 'business' of development. ""How the Aid Industry Works"" provides a basic description of what aid practices are and how they evolved. The arguments of both proponents and opponents of aid are presented and analyzed, along with real-life examples of projects and programs in context. Ideal for undergraduate and graduate students encountering the subject of development for the first time, the book also serves as an overview for development practitioners who want a handy reference covering the universe they inhabit.

Book SynopsisA pioneering work, full of detail and depth of knowledge about Africa ... a must read! Two powerful forces converged to shift global development in the last three decades from the West to the East and Asia. These same forces now make Africa the "construction site of the century." Africa in the decade 2040- 2050 will have a population of 2.5 billion people. Together with China and India, Africa will surely affect our planet's future! "Africans are and will continue to be the beneficiaries of two dramatic global transformations: first, the shift of wealth from the West to the East and the South; second, the impact of the universalization of the digital age. The OECD stated that the first transformation is " ... the most important shift in the history of humanity; "the second marks the emergence of new forms of human civilization ... This book documents these transformations now taking hold in Africa, however incomplete , unequal and difficult. But these changes are robust and decisive. In Africa, like everywhere else in the world, strategies and actions must be put into place to seize the moment which is so unique in global history." —Jean-Louis Roy, from the Introduction

Rutgers University Press The Persistence of Violence: Colombian Popular
Book SynopsisColombia’s headline story, about the peace process with guerrilla and its attendant controversies, does not consider the fundamental contradiction of a nation that spans generosity and violence, warmth and hatred—products of its particular pattern of invasion, dispossession, and enslavement. The Persistence of Violence fills that gap in understanding. Colombia is a place that is two countries in one—the ideal and the real—summed up in the idiomatic expression, not unique to Colombia, but particularly popular there, "Hecha la ley, hecha la trampa" (When you pass a law, you create a loophole). Less cynically, and more poetically, the Nobel Laureate Gabriel García Márquez deemed Colombians capable of both the most noble acts and the most abject ones, in a world where it seems anyone might do anything, from the beautiful to the horrendous.The Persistence of Violence draws on those contradictions and paradoxes to look at how violence—and resistance to it—characterize Colombian popular culture, from football to soap opera to journalism to tourism to the environment. Trade Review"Both eloquent and straightforward, Toby Miller artfully contextualizes violence in the culture of Colombia. The Persistence of Violence brings together the study of popular culture, political economy, and social movement issues in ways that offer a fresh view to scholarship of the region." -- George Yúdice * author of The Expediency of Culture *"Toby Miller tackles the considerable task of analyzing the roots of violence in Colombia with acumen, attention to empirical research, and great sensibility to listen to Colombian actors themselves. The Persistence of Violence will remain an essential reference to Cultural Studies approaches to violence in Colombia and will be read with interest by the general public, students, and specialists alike." -- Idelber Avelar * author of Transculturación en suspenso: Los orígenes de los cánones narrativos colombianos *"A welcome and timely contribution to the study of perhaps the most puzzling aspect of modern Colombia. Students of popular culture will find here much that is useful, especially as it pertains to recent developments such as the current Duque administration’s forays into economia naranja. Given the acuity of the analyses presented therein and their currency, Miller’s (and his co-authors’) work deserves ample circulation." * Hispanic Research Journal *"Both eloquent and straightforward, Toby Miller artfully contextualizes violence in the culture of Colombia.

Silkworm Books / Trasvin Publications LP Cashing In across the Golden Triangle: Thailand's
Book SynopsisHistorically, the Golden Triangle on the Mekong River has been a strategic yet largely impoverished crossroads between Thailand, Myanmar, Laos, and southern China. In the latter half of the 20th century, it was known as one of the world's key opium-producing regions. The new transnational "economic corridors" connecting northern Thailand and southwestern China via key border towns in Myanmar and Laos have greatly increased the volume of trade and transshipment in the region. Logistical improvements via the highways and ports have transformed entire towns and districts in Laos, Myanmar, and Thailand, bringing with them an influx of Chinese investment and tourism, and other population movements. The transformation of the economy of the Golden Triangle is ongoing and relatively uncharted. There is evidence of unequal benefits to the countries involved. Combining official data, observations, and interviews with a wide range of participants in this new border economy, this book provides an important and unique perspective on the impact of the new economic linkages in the region.Trade Review"The corner of the region known as the Golden Triangle remains bound to well-worn images of lawless Cold War-era drug trafficking, rather than evoking images of the complex and varied lives of the region's inhabitants today. This timely and detailed study provides an important corrective to static and dated images of Northern Thailand, Burma, and Laos. Like other places in the world, the Golden Triangle is in the process of being deeply transformed, and Cashing In ably tracks many of the changes." Jim Glassman, University of British Columbia "This slim volume dealing with Thailand's burgeoning northern trade with China, Laos and Myanmar combines a prodigious amount of fairly recent information on the changing nature and scope of this trade with an analysis of the political and economic forces driving these changes." - Asian Affairs, February 2013
