Development: The Basics

New Frontiers in Regional Science: Asian Perspectives

This book integrates diversified disciplines, research approaches, and methodologies of area studies, regional economic development, and regional science. With its huge population, China has accomplished rapid economic growth since the 1990s, although the significant income gap among regions and individuals has become a serious problem for its society. China's accession to the WTO in 2001 has had various influences on the entire food system, from agriculture to consumers, through the food manufacturing and distribution industries. The changes in the Chinese food system are considered to have also affected the agriculture and food industries in Asian countries where economic interdependence has been promoted in past decades. The author argues these issues based on interdisciplinary and multi-disciplinary methods and approaches and has successfully derived empirical and theoretical results that are rich in policy implications. The topics addressed include food security and sustainability of agriculture especially in the suburbs of big cities; poverty reduction in rural agricultural areas amidst prosperity in urban and coastal areas; regional networks and international trade of the food industry in East Asia; creation of innovative knowledge and human capital for clustering of the agro-food sector; regional development strategy; and international cooperation. The book is interesting for researchers in the field, especially for those who are concerned with the food system that has been changed dynamically in the past two decades, and it is informative, as well, for practitioners who are engaged in related business.

Clarifies the dynamism of China’s agro-food system centering on the issue of food security Integrates and advances diversified existing principles, disciplines, research approaches, and methodologies Provides materials, methods, ideas, and theories for understanding the changes in China’s agro-food sector

Can architecture ever be democratic? An elegant, timely new theory of politics and urban design from the acclaimed author of What is Populism? and Democracy Rules Building requires power and resources - then, once created, our environment structures how we relate to each other. But what would a distinctly democratic built environment look like? Should we prioritize an inclusive process by which as many citizens as possible can decide how a building is designed? Or is it about how architecture and urban spaces can best represent democracy to citizens - and how building and city planning can concretely facilitate democratic action by citizens? In Street, Palace, Square, political theorist Jan-Werner Müller offers an elegant new account of architecture and democracy that draws on examples from Washington DC to Dhaka, Cairo to Berlin. Ranging widely across political philosophy, history and design, he shows that bringing architecture and democracy together has an unexpected benefit. As we reflect on spaces and symbols on the one hand and our understandings of democracy on the other, we might see possibilities we did not see before: how to create spaces for citizens to make politics their own.

Raw Materials and Pacific Economic Integration (1978) focuses on the trade in raw materials - the basis for trade between Australia and Japan, and indeed for the economic relations within the Western Pacific regions. A quantitative analysis of the nature of economic relations between Japan, Australia and the developing countries in the Western Pacific and South-East Asia is presented together with a detailed consideration of an 'interdependent' economic relationship. The way in which trade and investment activity has produced a 'mutual dependence', the role played by long-term contracts in maintaining the relationship and the implications for domestic economic management are of special interest to all countries where trade is concentrated in particular markets or which have special relationships with considerably larger or smaller partners.

Cultural Economics & the Creative Economy

This edited volume presents an innovative approach to the relationship between cultural heritage and sustainable development, focusing on geographic factors and spatial economic analysis. Focusing on Italian case studies, the book unpacks various opportunities and challenges and explores how promoting and defending cultural heritage at the regional and national levels can in turn foster sustainable development.Chapters consider both tangible and intangible aspects of the cultural supply, such as museums and festivals, and investigate specific issues relevant to sustainability, from the role of networks on museums’ performance in remote areas to the effects of climate change on heritage sites. The book also pays special attention to the role of tourism, the various factors that impact tourist numbers, as well as how negative impacts can be mitigated. Several chapters focus on social capital and the importance of civic engagement and belonging in encouraging sustainable economic growth. This book will be of interest to scholars and students in a range of fields, including cultural economics, regional economics, economic geography, heritage studies and those working on sustainability more broadly.Silvia Cerisola

Concéntrico: Urban Innovation Laboratory
 blickt auf die ersten zehn Ausgaben des seit 2015 in der spanischen Stadt Logroño stattfindenden Design- und Architektur-Festivals Concéntrico zurück. Dieses fördert als innovatives Laboratorium die Suche nach neuen kreativen Wegen und trägt dazu bei, Architektur und Design zur Stärkung von Gemeinschaft einzusetzen und den Dialog zwischen Praktizierenden und der Gesellschaft zu beleben und zu fördern.
 Das Buch bildet in höchst visueller Weise und mit kurzen, konzisen Texten den internationalen Diskurs zur Bedeutung von Architektur und Design im 21. Jahrhundert ab, der über die bisherigen Ausgaben von Concéntrico entstanden ist. Es zeigt anhand von für das Festival entstandenen Entwürfen und Konzepten von 80 Architekt:innen, Designer:innen und Künstler:innen aus 20 Ländern sinnvolle Möglichkeiten auf, um sich mit drängenden urbanen Fragen auseinanderzusetzen - von Identität und Kulturerbe bis hin zu Zeitweiligkeit, Kollektivität, Ökologie, Spiel und Wohnlichkeit. Eingeleitet und zusammengehalten wird das Ganze durch ein Gespräch zwischen den beiden Herausgebern Javier Peña Ibáñez und Nick Axel über Kontext und Entwicklung des Concéntrico Festivals und dem dabei zusammengetragenen Wissen.

„Perfektion blockiert jede Form der Partizipation und verursacht zudem einen übermäßigen Ressourcenverbrauch.“ In 
 Form Follows Love
 beschreibt Anna Heringer ihr Architektur-Verständnis. 
 Für ihr neues Buch reiste sie mit Iwan Baan nach Bangladesch, um mit ihm die dort entstandenen Bauten aber auch ihr Frauen-Empowerment Projekt, die Dipdii Textiles, zu besuchen. Der niederländische Fotograf Iwan Baan ist vor allem für Bilder bekannt, die das Leben und die Interaktionen in der Architektur zeigen. In Bangladesch entstanden intensive und sinnliche Bilder, die zwischen Dokumentation und Kunst Zeugnis von dem ablegen, was Architektur leisten kann, wenn es nicht um Repräsentation, sondern um gesellschaftlichen Nutzen geht. <ul><li>

Agility was supposed to make software development faster, simpler, and more effective. Too often, it creates the opposite: unnecessary complexity, endless meetings, and an obsession with frameworks. This book shows that it doesen't have to be that way. Drawing on more than 25 years of international experience, and guided by the Swiss values of precision, reliability, and pragmatism, Dr. Siegfried Isele shares practical lessons from real software projects across Europe, the United States, the Middle East, and Asia. Through honest stories, practical guidance, and a touch of dry humor, he demonstrates why the principles behind successful Agile teams are becoming even more important in the age of Artificial Intelligence, and explores what AI can learn from Agile, and what Agile can gain from AI. This is an honest guide for professionals who want results, not illusions.

"A concise, engaging guide to Agile and Scrum! Masterfully demystifying principles and practices with real-world examples and humor, this book is an invaluable resource for teams and individuals embracing Agile. A must-read to unlock your team's full potential." - Jeff Sutherland, Co-Creator of Scrum

This book brings clarity to an Agile environment that has become unnecessarily complicated in many organizations. From a distinctly Swiss perspective, Dr. Siegfried Isele describes how software development actually works in practice—beyond framework discussions and methodological overengineering.&nbsp;The focus is on responsibility, leadership, and quality. Based on many years of international project experience, it becomes clear what it takes for technology organizations and teams to work reliably and deliver sustainable results—even in complex and regulated environments.The book does not try to explain Agile as a concept. It reflects what works in real projects. It helps to recognize typical pitfalls, put them into context, and establish Agile as a lived organizational practice.Contents:<ul><li>Agile in the context of modern software development</li><li>Roles, responsibility, and leadership</li><li>Collaboration in international and distributed teams</li><li>Quality and sustainable delivery</li><li>Typical pitfalls and limitations</li><li>Agile as an organizational practice</li></ul>„A concise, engaging guide to Agile and Scrum!

EXPLORING GLOBAL HISTORY THROUGH THE LENS OF GEOGRAPHY World Historical Geography offers a bold and original approach to world history by placing geography at the heart of historical transformation. Rather than treating geography as a passive backdrop, Jaime Moreno-Tejada emphasizes its active role in shaping regional developments and global connections. This innovative textbook captures the interdisciplinary nature of historical geography, drawing from paleoclimatology, paleogenetics, archaeology, and environmental history to explore how physical and human geographies have influenced the past. Organized into twelve regionally focused chapters, World Historical Geography guides students from the origins of humanity in Sub-Saharan Africa to the diverse cultural landscapes of the Caribbean. Each chapter identifies key historical-geographic trends and includes three Global Themes-short, focused essays that explore topics such as migration, symbolic power, domestication, and river systems. These micro-essays enrich the regional narratives while encouraging cross-chapter exploration. Chapter reflections and concluding questions further prompt students to think critically about spatial boundaries and historical processes at multiple scales. World Historical Geography: Regional Trends and Global Themes is ideal for undergraduate and graduate courses in World History, World Geography, or Area Studies. It is especially suited for courses within humanities and social science degree programs that emphasize interdisciplinary inquiry and global perspectives.

This book analyses laws distinctively normative contribution to place-making. In an original, cross-disciplinary, analysis drawing on scholarship in law, geography, philosophy and politics, Antonia Layard considers how law operates in the fixing of borders that both protect and exclude. Centred upon four legal case studies - on public space; housing regulation; rules on the manifestation of religion; and geographic indications in intellectual property law - the book pursues a critical geographical consideration of how place is integral to ideas about identity, belonging and territory.

Law, Place &amp; Maps: Balancing Protection and Exclusion analyse law’s distinctively normative contribution to place-making. In an original, cross-disciplinary, analysis drawing on scholarship in law, geography, philosophy and politics, Antonia Layard considers how, both formally and formally, law operates in the fixing of borders that both protect and exclude. Centred upon four legal case studies – on public space; housing regulation; rules on the manifestation of religion; and geographic indications in intellectual property law – the book pursues a critical geographical consideration of how place is integral to ideas about identity, belonging and territory. It will be of much interest to critical legal geographers and socio-legal scholars, as well as planning, environmental, intellectual property, housing and land use lawyers.
