Institutional and Technological Change in Japan's Economy: Past and Present (Contemporary Japan)


  Institutional and Technological Change in Japan's Economy: Past and Present (Contemporary Japan)  Institutional and technological change is a highly topical subject. At the theoretical level, there is much debate in the field of institutional economics and about the role of technological change in endogenous growth theory. At a practical policy level, arguments rage about how Japan and the Japanese economy should plan for the future. In this book, leading economists and economic historians of Japan examine a range of key issues concerning institutional and technological change in Japan, rigorously using discipline-based tools of analysis, and drawing important conclusions as to how the process of change in these areas actually works. In applying these ideas to Japan, the writers in this volume are focusing on an issue which is currently being much debated in the country itself, and are helping our understanding of the world's second-largest economy.  книги, книжный магазин, интернет-магазин Institutional and technological change is a highly topical subject.

Hong Kong: Front Door/Back Door

Michael Wolf, Kenneth Baker


  Hong Kong: Front Door/Back Door  Michael Wolf, Kenneth Baker  Thames and Hudson.   This trip through one of the most densely populated areas of the world is also a journey through a strangely underpopulated place, inhabited only by the traces of city dwellers. The dark back alleys that crisscross the city are home to objects that, at first glance, seem to be discarded - the random detritus of the man-made world. Under the scrutiny of Michael Wolf's photographic eye, these objects become fascinating installation pieces, while the abstract patterns of the buildings reveal the beauty and order that underlie the apparent chaos of the city. Thought-provoking texts by Kenneth Baker and Douglas Young explore the choices that people make of lifestyle, form, function, identity, and design, as well as the notion of Hong Kong as a brand. 75 color illustrations.  книги, книжный магазин, интернет-магазин Thames and Hudson.
