Routledge Research Collections for Construction in Developing Countries

This book addresses the evolution of the construction industry in Malaysia from its independence in 1957 until the present day. It is a fascinating look at Malaysia's story of achievements and setbacks told for the first time from an infrastructure development and construction perspective.Chapters cover topics such as the government's economic development policies, the transition from foreign to local contractors, employment of migrant construction workers, the adoption of privatisation policies and the reliance on private financing for public infrastructure. Many features of modern construction principles such as privatisations, public-private financing, industrialised building systems, alliancing or partnership approach were rapidly adopted and are discussed in the book. Contemporary issues such as climate change, environmental sustainability, occupational health and safety, quality and technology are also discussed. The second part of the book provides six case studies of pertinent projects over the last sixty years to illustrate the transformation of the Malaysian construction industry and the challenges faced along the way. These include:¿ North-South Expressway (1981)¿ Penang Bridge (1982)¿ Petronas Twin Towers (1993)¿ East-Coast Rail Link (2016)¿ Merdeka 118 Tower (2024)This latest addition to the Routledge Research Collections for Construction in Developing Countries series is essential reading for students and scholars of the international construction sector, economic development, infrastructure, and the history of Asian economies.

Routledge Frontiers of Political Economy

The BRICS grouping - Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa - jointly founded the New Development Bank and the Contingent Reserve Arrangement as part of their efforts to constitute a trade, monetary, and geopolitical bloc. Yet the inability to deal collectively with external pressures, intra-group tensions, and ideological divergences has hampered efforts to establish a coherent and articulated strategy. Nevertheless, given their centrality to the production, circulation, and consumption of agricultural commodities and food products; their abundant reserves of labour and natural resources, and the scale of their domestic markets, the development trajectories of the BRICS countries remain crucial to understanding the future not only of the global agrifood system but also of capitalism itself.Engaging with recent debates in comparative capitalism and food regime approaches, this book provides a comparative institutional analysis of the BRICS 'varieties of capitalism' and their role in the international reordering of the contemporary 'food regime'. It is argued that the historically embedded legacy of the agrarian question in the institutional configurations and class relations of each country can help to explain the institutional diversity of capitalism. Conversely, to the extent that the dynamics of the agrifood system have a decisive influence on their overall development trajectories, the BRICS-driven shifts in the food regime have much to reveal about the new period of global capitalism that will follow the eventual demise of the neoliberal era.Opening an original and innovative agenda of empirical and theoretical research, the book will appeal to an international readership interested in agrarian political economy, economic sociology, rural and agrifood studies, and the future of the global economy.

Edition Medienwissenschaft

Wo beginnen und bis wohin reichen menschliche Existenzweisen in einer technisch durchdrungenen Alltags- und Lebenswelt? Welche Formen nehmen sie an, und wo verlaufen die Grenzen ihrer Beschreibbarkeit? Medienanthropologie versteht Menschsein als Relationierung, die sich zu, in, durch und zwischen Medien ins Verhältnis setzt. Die Beiträger*innen konzentrieren sich daher auf drei wesentliche Aspekte des Medienbegriffs, der dem anthropomedialen Ansatz zugrunde liegt: 'Vermittlung', 'Materialität' und 'Milieu'. In theoriebasierter Arbeit sowie ästhetischen Analysen zeigen sie, welche Anknüpfungspunkte das Denken in Relationen für gegenwärtige medienwissenschaftliche Theoriefelder eröffnet.

"Lost Worlds convinces us of the value of slowing down to recognize the tremendous diversity of the human past. But he presses hard against the conclusion that there was any direction or pattern behind its complexity." —The Wall Street Journal“A spellbinding tour de force!” —Walter Scheidel, author of What Is Ancient History?“This is non-fiction storytelling at its finest.” —Eric H. Cline, author of 1177 B.C.The creator of the hit podcast Tides of History offers a new look at humanity’s deep past, showing us how our world was built not by inevitability, but by trial and error on a global scale.There’s a familiar story about us humans: we went from hunting and gathering to farming, wandering bands to villages and cities, clans and chieftains to states and kings. But Lost Worlds offers a new narrative of humanity’s deep history. Here beloved podcast host Patrick Wyman focuses on the 10,000-year span between the end of the Ice Age and the decline of the Bronze Age—the period when civilization as we understand it emerged, introducing social hierarchies, urbanism, complex political organizations, and the written word.In this nuanced retelling, human progress is no longer a straight march from caves to cities: Farming didn’t always replace foraging, villages didn’t automatically spark agriculture, and cities didn’t necessitate rigid hierarchies. For thousands of years, humans merely improvised. By the end of the Bronze Age, the world had become unrecognizable: mammoths and giant sloths replaced by cattle and sheep, scattered nomadic bands replaced by millions living in cities, and farming on nearly every continent. Wyman argues that the rise of states and steady food production wasn’t inevitable, but rather, the outcome of countless choices that reshaped the planet and made us who we are today.Combining cutting-edge science with gripping storytelling, Lost Worlds explores: <ul><li>A Sweeping New History of the Ancient World: Discover how early societies rose, adapted, and collapsed across thousands of years of human history.</li><li>The Archaeology Revolution: Ancient DNA, climate science, and new excavation methods are revealing how prehistoric people lived, migrated, and fought.</li><li>From Ice Age Hunters to Early Civilizations: Follow the dramatic transformation that led from nomadic foragers to farming, cities, and powerful states.</li><li>Why Societies Rise—and Fall: Learn how climate change, migration, population growth, and conflict shaped the fate of early civilizations.</li></ul>

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.

The accelerating convergence of digital transformation and sustainability represents one of the most profound structural changes in contemporary Europe. This scientific monograph examines how Industry 4.0 technologies-artificial intelligence, Internet of Things, advanced data systems, and smart manufacturing-can be strategically embedded within the European Union's sustainability framework.Bringing together perspectives from political economy, circular economy theory, innovation studies, and socio-economic analysis, the book explores important themes such as the European Green Deal and climate-neutrality targets, the role of Industry 4.0 in enabling sustainable industrial transformation, the circular economy approaches and best practices in Slovenia, the socio-economic implications of the green transition and the transformative potential of Cultural and Creative Industries (CCIs).Through an interdisciplinary approach, the authors demonstrate that technological innovation alone is insufficient. Sustainable Industry 4.0 requires coordinated governance, social investment mechanisms, and regionally differentiated strategies to ensure that the green transition is both environmentally effective and socially inclusive.This monograph contributes to ongoing academic and policy debates on digitalisation, sustainability, and Europe's strategic future.

Politics, Foreign Trade and Economic Development (1986) discusses politics, foreign trade and economic development in the Dominican Republic in order to show why the country is so poor and to put forward suggestions concerning how the position might be improved. It argues that a major reason for poor economic performance is the fact that successive regimes have been more committed to increasing personal wealth of the rulers than to fostering the economic development of the country.

The Construction Industry in Developing Countries (1986) examines this vital form of economic activity, often the second-largest employer after agriculture in the developing world. The construction industry is not just a key source of employment, but is also a dynamic factor in the process of economic growth and development.
