Routledge International Studies in Money and Banking

As an integral part of the world financial market, the global asset management industry has played a significant role in almost every critical event and change in the world financial market over the past four decades. Its growth has been facilitated from the financial innovations in products and management technologies from various financial institutions. It is definitely a challenge to comprehend the dynamic linkage between the global asset management industry and the world financial market, institutions and products. This book takes the challenge by providing a systematic and analytical review of the dynamic development of global asset management industry in its market structure, product diversities, risk management technologies and performance. The book aims at offering researchers, investors and financial practitioners a comprehensive introduction on how the dynamic development of global asset management industry has been integrated with the fast changing world financial market, institutions and products. As wealth or asset management is becoming a popular and specialized subject offered in university financial courses, this book may serve as a key textbook for financial courses in universities.

This Open Access book explores the evolving landscape of non-financial reporting and ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) performance, with a specific focus on small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and micro-enterprises. Drawing on European regulatory frameworks, stakeholder theory, and empirical case studies, the book examines how SMEs navigate sustainability demands in a context traditionally dominated by large corporations and global standards.The book addresses the historical evolution of CSR, the challenges of ESG integration for investors, and the methodological development of a composite ESG indicator tailored to SMEs. It introduces innovative tools such as the Mazziotta–Pareto Index and participatory accounting frameworks like CARE and SEMA, offering practical insights into ESG measurement and reporting. Through comparative case studies and analysis, it bridges the gap between ESG theory and SME realities, contributing to both academic research and professional practice.Ideal for scholars in economics, finance, and sustainability, as well as practitioners and policymakers, this book advances the conversation on responsible innovation, regional development, and the future of ESG in the SME sector.

Developments in Health Economics and Public Policy

As the need for long-term care expands, evaluating the roles of its primary providers—the state, the market, and the family—becomes increasingly essential. This book first examines recent research on the contributions of families and the marketplace to long-term care. Noting the decreasing involvement of families and the limitations of market-based solutions, it then shifts focus to studies that explore public policy development aimed at supporting elderly individuals without family assistance or adequate resources. These policies aim to create a comprehensive support system by utilizing both market mechanisms and family resources to meet the needs of the dependent elderly.The book also provides a comparative analysis of how various countries, especially in Europe and North America, address disability and dependence in their long-term care systems, offering insights into diverse strategies and solutions. This cross-country perspective identifies effective practices and highlights areas requiring further development in social insurance and support frameworks. Through this exploration, the book seeks to deepen understanding of the influence of social norms and family solidarity on long-term care provision, emphasizing how these elements can be integrated into more resilient public policy structures.

Das Fachbuch verknüpft die Diskussion virtueller Währungen mit möglichen Auswirkungen von Bitcoin und Co. auf Zentralbankpolitik. Es richtet sich sowohl an Wissenschaftler, Experten und Praktiker als auch an interessierte Laien. Im ersten Teil bietet es einen Überblick über Geld, Geldtheorien und die Funktionsweise des konventionellen Geldsystems sowie seine aktuellen Probleme und Herausforderungen. Zu letzteren zählen insbesondere virtuelle Währungen, allen voran Bitcoin. Der zweite Teil des Buches widmet sich daher zunächst ausführlich ihrer Abgrenzung zu Fiatgeld, ihren Nutzern und Regulierungsfragen. Das Hauptaugenmerk liegt schließlich auf der Bedeutung virtueller Währungen für Zentralbanken im Hinblick auf Auswirkungen auf den Geldmarkt und weitere relevante Politikfelder. Hier werden mögliche Reaktionen der Zentralbanken diskutiert und ob virtuelle Währungen eine ernstzunehmende Gefahr für das Geldschöpfungsmonopol sowie eine tatsächliche Konkurrenz im Geldsystem darstellen. Das Buch schließt mit einem Blick auf die Blockchain-Technologie und ihrer Bedeutung für verschiedene Finanzbranchen.

This book focuses on the UN Sustainable Development Goals, using nationally representative datasets from the China Rural Household Panel Survey and China Labor-force Dynamics Survey to reveal the temporal and spatial evolution of cropland abandonment in rural China, and systematically examines the underlying drivers and governance strategies of farmers' cropland abandonment.
More specifically, this book creatively uses "People-Land-Money-Rights" as an analytical clue, and comprehensively employs modern econometric methods such as panel Tobit model, staggered DID model, and panel fixed-effect model to empirically investigate the impact of off-farm employment, land fragmentation, agricultural comparative return, and tenure insecurity on farmers' cropland abandonment. Based on these, this book also further explores the role of new agricultural business entities, farmland water conservancy projects, agricultural subsidy reform, and land tenure reform in curbing cropland abandonment. This book highlights the urgent need to address cropland abandonment and provides valuable insights into land protection in the context of food security and sustainable agriculture.

This volume offers a comprehensive examination of Hans Kelsen's legal and political philosophy, focusing on four central themes. The first part analyses Kelsen's theory of norms, including its periodisation and concepts of validity and coercion. The second part explores his perspectives on international law, addressing its structural analysis, primitive law characterisation, and teleology. The third part examines Kelsen's theory of democracy, its relationship with the pure theory of law, collective will, and democratisation of the administration. The final part discusses Kelsen's influence on the Vienna School of Legal Theory and its impact on case law and jurisprudence beyond Europe. This collection is essential for scholars and practitioners seeking to understand Kelsen's legacy.

From an acclaimed Ukrainian author, snapshots of a city haunted by war &nbsp; The women, men, and children in Serhiy Zhadan's new collection of stories testify to the dignity of daily life in the war-battered Ukrainian city of Kharkiv. Through a series of powerful vignettes we witness the ordinary experiences of people in extraordinary times-weddings, love affairs, tense visits home from the battlefield, desperate deliveries of humanitarian aid.Highlighting the upheaval since the 2022 Russian invasion, characters from Zhadan's Mesopotamia and The Orphanage reappear, this time with entirely different concerns: evacuating an elderly woman after the bombardment of a residential area; finding a job for someone who returned from the front with significant disabilities; attending the funeral of a colleague who had led a combat unit on the front lines.These stories, composed shortly before the author joined the Ukrainian armed forces, give voice to the vulnerability of those whose lives have been transformed by war, who have come to accept that death lurks around every corner, in every building, and on every square.

This book examines the persistence of blasphemy provisions, their increasing use in post-authoritarian Indonesia and the extent to which religion has been instrumentalised for political ends justified by law.Based on empirical research and an analysis of more than a hundred court decisions that connects evidence to theoretical discussions, this book traces the evolution and dynamics of capitalism in relation to the nature of legal order and the operation of laws, particularly those related to religion. Using an interdisciplinary approach, the author offers a rich analysis of the competing discourses on blasphemy in Indonesia. The work bridges the literatures of law and other social sciences. Providing an updated analysis of Indonesian blasphemy laws, this book also aims to shed light on the dynamics of legal order that affect how and why such laws exist. Rather than merely documenting regulations on and cases of blasphemy, the study aims to further understand the operation of law as a reflection of power relations. Specifically, the book reveals that the persistence of blasphemy laws has more to do with the illiberal nature of Indonesia's legal order, which renders laws that privilege religious orthodoxy a practical instrument for religious mobilisation for political purposes, than with the cultural distinctiveness of Indonesian society or the lack of modern bureaucratic and legal institutions supporting secularisation, as many scholars have argued.Offering original contribution to scholarship on blasphemy, the politicisation of religion and illiberalism in democracies, this book will be of interest to academics in the field of Asian politics, law and Southeast Asia studies.
