Every year, as soon as reports on global economic inequality remind us about the direction our civilization is heading, there is a hysterical reaction, but hysteria dies down within weeks and we go back to the lifestyle that brought us here today. Often the blame is laid on the Millennial generation for their "apathy," "lust for comfort," and "bratty" attitude. Yet, business insider surveys indicate it's the same Millennial generation that overwhelmingly cares for the state of the world and the direction in which our civilization is heading. Nearly 50% of them ranked climate change and destruction of nature as their primary concern. This is followed by concern for war and global conflict, and then global economic inequality. The vast majority of those surveyed are willing and eager to make lifestyle changes. This book breaks open the hypocrisy of our civilization and stops the blame game in its tracks and identifies the root causes of today's world economy, ecology, and global politics.
The book demonstrates that changes in lifestyle are necessary but not sufficient. No economic policy or technology development mode has a chance to survive, let alone thrive unless supported by the political establishment. In this process, the government plays a pivotal role. The challenge is to change the attitude of the government from a 'self-serving' controlling mode to a representative philanthropic mode. This new system of economic development and political governance is inspired by a long-forgotten understanding of political economics: medieval Islamic economics. In reviewing the history of economics from trade, currencies, and interest, the strengths and weaknesses of various economic developments over our centuries are evaluated. Based on the historical analysis, a step by step procedure is outlined for this fundamental change in our society today. As a whole, this book is the first of modern era to offer such a comprehensive analysis, complete with solutions to the entire crisis of today's civilization.
Whether for the student, engineer in the field, economist, or even layperson interested in the subject, this groundbreaking new work is a must-have. Covering one of the most important subjects in our world today, it is a valiant attempt at solving one of the biggest problems facing all of us.
Автор: Sardar Islam Название: Sustainable and Shared Value Creation: Innovative Strategies for Organisational Success ISBN: 1536187070 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781536187076 Издательство: Nova Science Рейтинг: Цена: 89750.00 T Наличие на складе: Невозможна поставка. Описание: In a post-Global Financial Crisis (2008) and post-COVID-19 (2020) competitive world, an organisational strategy needs to be promoted for gaining sustained competitive advantage by creating value. So, there is a need for a thorough study to explore the current value creation practices in commercial organisations and recommend a framework to accelerate the process of value creation. This book explores how sustainability and shared value are facilitating the process of value creation within banking organisations and property organisations. Considering a multiple case study approach and constructivist paradigm, eight Australian case studies are exemplified to denote how practical issues can be examined through the new sustainability lens. The four thematic components explored in this book are a) clean technology, b) sustainability vision at the bottom of the pyramid, c) reconceiving products/services and d) redefining the value chain. In the context of social and economic value creation by the Australian organisations, the underlying objectives of the book are to a) explore the adoption of components of the applied sustainable value and shared value business models by Australian banking and property organisations for social and economic value creation; and b) empirically develop an alternative business model for the Australian banking and property industries, based on emerging components from industry-wide interview responses. Our research resulted in many findings that showed a number of industry-wide differences. However, the notable and main difference was that a) banking organisations predominantly leverage sustainability based on product/service innovation at the bottom of the pyramid level, and b) property organisations predominantly leverage environmental sustainability based on the application of clean technology through redefining the value chain. The primary interview data analysis suggests that the selected Australian sustainable and shared value organisations also emphasise the co-creation of value based on their engagement with customers, stakeholders, and communities. The secondary data analysis suggest that the selected Australian property organisations ensure a higher increase in net profit after tax and return on equity compared to the selected banking organisations. The main recommendation emanating from industry case interviews and presented in this book is an empirically developed alternative business model for value co-creation based on two new thematic components, which are a) stakeholder engagement and b) community resilience. The book will come as a guide to future academic researchers and practice managers in implementing the recommended value co-creation business model to create social and economic value.

Описание: This edited volume provides a critical evaluation of financing options for sustainable development in Africa. While sustainability has long been the watchword for development programs, and while many African countries have taken initiatives to develop integrated frameworks that tackle developmental challenges—including poverty, education, and health—financing has remained a challenge. In this book, an expert team of chapter authors examines new financing options while also exploring how traditional financing means, such as foreign aid and foreign direct investment, can be more effective for sustainability. The authors discuss how African nations can build adequate structures and productive capacity to create a platform that can meet present economic, social, and environmental needs without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. Practical case studies and scientific evidence give this book a unique approach that is both qualitative and quantitative. This book will be of interest to students, practitioners, and scholars of development studies, public policy and African economics.
