Solving the world's problems : give greed a chance

Ronnie Horesh


Solving the world's problems : give greed a chance Ronnie Horesh Book DescriptionViolent political conflict and climate change threaten us all. Governments and international bodies have failed to respond in any meaningful way. They continue to fund activities and institutions that are only tenuously linked to social and environmental goals. Social Policy Bonds are a new financial instrument that could revolutionise policymaking. By issuing them, governments and the private sector could inextricably tie rewards to outcomes, and inject market incentives into the achievement of such universally desired goals as world peace and climate stability. Ronnie Horesh's Social Policy Bond concept has been praised by distinguished economists. He has spoken about it in such forum as the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), Cambridge University and think tanks in the United Kingdom, Australia and New Zealand. книги, книжный магазин, интернет-магазин Book DescriptionViolent political conflict and climate change threaten us all.

Women, Compulsion, Modernity : The Moment of American Naturalism (Women in Culture and Society Series)

Jennifer L. Fleissner


Women, Compulsion, Modernity : The Moment of American Naturalism (Women in Culture and Society Series) Jennifer L. Fleissner Book Description The 1890s have long been thought one of the most male-oriented eras in American history. But in reading such writers as Frank Norris with Mary Wilkins Freeman and Charlotte Perkins Gilman with Stephen Crane, Jennifer L. Fleissner boldly argues that feminist claims in fact shaped the period's cultural mainstream. Women, Compulsion, Modernity reopens a moment when the young American woman embodied both the promise and threat of a modernizing world. Fleissner shows that this era's expanding opportunities for women were inseparable from the same modern developments--industrialization, consumerism--typically believed to constrain human freedom. With Women, Compulsion, and Modernity , Fleissner creates a new language for the strange way the writings of the time both broaden and question individual agency. книги, книжный магазин, интернет-магазин Book Description The 1890s have long been thought one of the most male-oriented eras in American history.
