Mobile phones are close to ubiquitous in developing countries; Internet and broadband access are becoming commonplace. Information and communication technologies (ICTs) thus represent the fastest, broadest and deepest technical change experienced in international development. They now affect every development sector - supporting the work of hundreds of millions of farmers and micro-entrepreneurs; creating millions of ICT-based jobs; assisting healthcare workers and teachers; facilitating political change; impacting climate change; but also linked with digital inequalities and harms - with the pace of change continuously accelerating.
Information and Communication Technology for Development (ICT4D) provides the first dedicated textbook to examine and explain these emerging phenomena. It will help students, practitioners, researchers and other readers understand the place of ICTs within development; the ICT-enabled changes already underway; and the key issues and interventions that engage ICT4D practice and strategy.
The book has a three-part structure. The first three chapters set out the foundations of ICT4D: the core relation between ICTs and development; the underlying components needed for ICT4D to work; and best practice in implementing ICT4D. Five chapters then analyse key development goals: economic growth, poverty eradication, social development, good governance and environmental sustainability. Each chapter assesses the goal-related impact associated with ICTs and key lessons from real-world cases. The final chapter looks ahead to emerging technologies and emerging models of ICT-enabled development.
The book uses extensive in-text diagrams, tables and boxed examples with chapter-end discussion and assignment questions and further reading. Supported by online activities, video links, session outlines and slides, this textbook provides the basis for undergraduate, postgraduate and online learning modules on ICT4D.

Описание: Earnings management is an issue that directly affects the overall integrity and quality of financial reporting and to date, many studies have been conducted in an attempt to gain an understanding of whether firms are engaging in earnings management, why they do so, what are the motives that drive managers discretionary behaviour, what are the economic consequences and whether investors can see through this behaviour? In this book, Chapter One reviews the developments and the trends in the contemporary earnings management research and discuss several possible avenues for future research. Chapter Two provides an overview of the most recent studies on earnings management in relation to the financial crisis and the institutional environment and firm characteristics. Chapter Three provides a description of the nowadays most commonly used methods for measuring earnings management in accounting and finance literature. Chapter Four examines earnings management and corporate social responsibility as an entrenchment strategy.
Xi Jinping, China's top leader, is an historical figure who is taking China onto the center stage of world.
In the past few years, Xi Jinping has reshaped China. On corruption, he is impartial and merciless, refusing to do anything with relatives and friends, so that the most daring forecasters were amazed; On economic reform, he is bold and resolute, and won praise as the chief architect of China's economy; on military issues, he initiated the boldest reforms since the Chinese Communist Party has been in power and the Chinese military is rapidly becoming stronger.
He is also known as the new geo-political master. Since AIIB (Asia Infrastructure Investment Bank) was established, the United States and Japan have suffered the biggest diplomatic setbacks for decades, dramatically changed the international financial landscape. His "One Belt & One Road" initiative will profoundly change the international balance and will have a more far-reaching impact than the "Marshall Plan"
Calm, pragmatic, firm but gentle, he has his own principles, even with his North Korea ally, who once violated China's national interests. He resolutely established sanctions. In the South China Sea, while a series of China's islands were violated by other countries, he decided to approve large scale island reinforcement, at one fell swoop, changing the passive situation of the South China Sea. Xi Jinping is a great power leader who accepts the responsibility and has demonstrated the ability to make daring decisions. His books on governing China have sold in hundreds of countries all over the world. In his state visits to foreign countries, his casual speech and charm demonstrate soft power.
Great Power Leader Xi Jinping: International Perspectives on China's Leader has been written from the perspective of politicians and the media towards Xi Jinping, showing Xi Jinping in areas of economic reform, anti-corruption, military re-building, "One Belt & One Road," and soft power initiatives in the Taiwan Strait, the South China Sea, and the Korean peninsula. Xi Jinping's approach to other hot issues are viewed objectively and prove the Chinese leader's responsibility and grasp of ambitious plans and great strategic ideas.
To understand how the world looks at Xi Jinping, read the Great Power Leader Xi Jinping: International Perspectives on China's Leader.
Название: Livelihoods and Development: New Perspectives ISBN: 9004342257 ISBN-13(EAN): 9789004342255 Издательство: Brill Цена: 65090.00 T Наличие на складе: Невозможна поставка. Описание: This books aims to further develop theory and practice on people-centred development, in particular on the livelihood approach. It focuses on four contemporary thematic areas, where progress has been booked but also contestation is still apparent: power relations, power struggles and underlying structures; livelihood trajectories and livelihood pathways: house, home and homeland in the context of violence; and mobility and immobility. Contemporary livelihood studies aim to contribute to the understanding of poor people’s lives with the ambition to enhance their livelihoods. Nowadays livelihood studies work from an holistic perspective on how the poor organize their livelihoods, in order to understand their social exclusion and to contribute to interventions and policies that intend to countervail that. Contributors are: Clare Collingwood Esland, Ine Cottyn, Jeanne de Bruijn, Leo de Haan, Charles do Rego, Benjamin Etzold, Urs Geiser, Jan Willem le Grand, Griet Steel, Paul van Lindert, Annelies Zoomers.
