China's Path to Development

Against Neoliberalism

The law codes in the Middle East North Africa (MENA) region are a well-crafted blend of civil and Islamic law in which civil law principles do not violate Islamic provisions. Yet, common law principles derived either from English common law or Islamic customary usages remain unidentified and thus ignored. Here, this complex scenario is rectified through a comparative analysis of the primary data (e.g. cases, statutes and arbitral award decisions), adding common law and uncodified Islamic custom to MENA law codes. The purpose of this comparative analysis is to allow common legal principles found in civil, common and Islamic law to be distilled in order to create a new, harmonised international commercial arbitration law code (HICALC) or uniform Arab arbitration law (UAAL) for adoption in the MENA region, where these principles already greatly influence the legal systems and can be readily assimilated into a harmonised or uniform code. The work demonstrates that this new code would lead to improved arbitral award enforcement in the MENA.

What Everyone Needs To Know®

Why do populists come to power? Are they a threat to democracy? Has the rise of global populism reached its peak, or is it just beginning? This book provides answers to these questions and many more, by summarising in non-technical language the vast research literature on populism that extends across political science, economics, sociology, psychology, and history. Going well beyond the usual cases of Trump and Brexit, Paul D. Kenny provides evidence both of the recurrent global appeal of populism, and of its often deleterious consequences. Populism: What Everyone Needs to Know® advances a new approach to defining populism that helps to make sense of the most robust research findings to date, and that sets up an exciting and dynamic approach in research for the years to come. Populism is, at heart, a political movement that challenges the institutional status quo. The great paradox of populism is that while people are often justifiably resentful of a system they feel is rigged against them, their reliance on charismatic leaders to channel their frustrations usually harms rather than helps democracy.

European Union and its Neighbours in a Globalized World

This book presents an in-depth, comparative analysis of the legal and social policy challenges arising from EU accession in Central and Eastern European countries, promoting a comparative understanding of the impacts on labour and social security law resulting from participation in the EU.&nbsp;Membership in the European Union has profoundly influenced the development of labour and social security law in the countries that joined it in 2004. Key areas such as anti-discrimination law, working time regulations, rules on posting workers, and work-life balance have undergone significant transformations. EU accession has also reshaped how social security regulations work, while fundamental aspects of employee-employer relations, including collective bargaining and occupational health and safety, have seen notable changes as well.
The book not only addresses the main characteristics and current dynamics of social law regulations in an ever-evolving Europe but also provides valuable insights into methods for addressing these challenges through improved labour regulations.
This book offers an essential resource for understanding the complexities and dynamics of labour and social security law in the context of EU enlargement, offering critical perspectives on both historical developments and future trends.

Labour Law and Social Security Law in Central and Eastern Europe

A giant of the political left, Rosa Luxemburg is one of the foremost minds in the canon of revolutionary socialist thought. But she was much more than just a thinker. She made herself heard in a world inimical to the voices of strong-willed women. She overcame physical infirmity and the prejudice she faced as a Jew to become an active revolutionary whose philosophy enriched every corner of an incredibly productive and creative life—her many friendships, her sexual intimacies, and her love of science, nature and art. Always opposed to the First World War, when others on the German left were swept up on a tide of nationalism, she was imprisoned and murdered in 1919 fighting for a revolution she knew to be doomed. In this beautifully drawn work of graphic biography, writer and artist Kate Evans has opened up her subject’s intellectual world to a new audience, grounding Luxemburg’s ideas in the realities of an inspirational and deeply affecting life.

Emerging-Economy State and International Policy Studies

This book offers a compelling analysis of Malaysia’s path to sustained economic growth and social stability, illuminating how the country navigated the complex challenges of industrialization, ethnic diversity, and inequality. Spanning six decades of development from the 1960s to the 2020s, the book integrates rigorous economic analysis with nuanced political insights to present a comprehensive account of Malaysia’s transformation.
Through detailed examination of industrial upgrading, productivity growth, and policy implementation, the book reveals how Malaysia balanced rural development with urbanization and economic expansion with ethnic harmony. Unlike many developing nations that prioritized industrialization at the expense of rural sectors, Malaysia pursued a dual-track strategy—supporting both agriculture and industry while managing labor transitions across sectors.
Central to this success was Malaysia’s competitive authoritarian political system, which enabled decisive policy shifts at critical junctures. The book explores how this governance model facilitated the country’s transition from a primary commodity exporter to a diversified industrial economy, while actively addressing ethnic economic disparities. Essential reading for scholars, policymakers, and practitioners in development economics, political economy, and Asian studies, this work provides unique insights into the policy choices and institutional dynamics that shaped Malaysia’s development trajectory. It offers valuable lessons for other multi-ethnic middle-income countries seeking sustainable growth.

Economic Development Strategies

The China Experience

A Legal Theory of State-Owned Enterprises

Most works on Asian or global studies adopt mainstream Neoclassical methods to explain economic and social development. However, quantitative and optimisation techniques are unable to provide a deep understanding of policy change between the West and East Asia. To fill the gap, this book uses evolutionary perspective to interpret economic and social transformations of two global powers, namely, the United States and China. Specifically, this book outlines the roles of culture, institutions and entrepreneurship in the analysis. Instead of logical empiricism in the English tradition, our approach is interpretative and storytelling in continental European tradition. In other words, we adopt hermeneutics and phenomenology in the analysis and apply humanity to economics. There are two aims of this book. First, it outlines the evolution of Austrian evolutionary economics and second, the role of learning in the decision-making process. It focuses on how decision makers learn and how good and bad learners are differentiated.

Cultural Differences between the West and East Asia and their Impacts on Global Economy

A paradigm-shifting textbook that teaches graduate students in economics how to use economic models to interpret data. Offering a new pedagogical paradigm, this textbook delivers a ready-made economics course covering the general concepts that unify different approaches to bringing economic models to data. Jesse Shapiro presents core ideas in quantitative economics as an abstract, cohesive whole and introduces canonical models that can be used across a wide range of applications. This course-in-a-book exposes students to stylized applications of these models that illuminate their foundations as well as recent research articles demonstrating the models’ broad applicability. <ul><li>Provides a coherent, generalized approach to making model-based inferences in empirical economics</li><li>Introduces central concepts and canonical models in quantitative economics</li><li>Features applications of modern research topics</li><li>Suits self-paced learning and classroom use alike</li></ul>

Introduction to Quantitative Economics

Development and Its Discontents is a critical examination of development studies' history and what it has become, and what it might yet be. It argues that the field is increasingly differentiated along competing modes of thought, worldviews, and claims to knowledge, bringing long-running debates about the study of development back into sharp focus. Drawing on cross-disciplinary thinking on development, from the rise of classical development economics and the anti-colonial momentum of the Bandung era to contemporary decolonial critiques, the book maps the intellectual currents that have shaped development studies and the tensions and debates that now structure it. The result is a framework for recognising the field's internal pluralism and for taking interdisciplinarity more seriously, without pretending that its disagreements are merely semantic. For scholars and students, Development and Its Discontents offers a guide to the intellectual architecture of development studies, its contested boundaries, and the questions now shaping its future.

Development and its Discontents

A new English translation of Isaak Illich Rubin's classic Essays on Marx's Theory of Value. 
 
First published in the Soviet Union in 1923, Rubin's book sparked a fierce value controversy with contemporary Soviet economists during the late 1920s. As such, the present translation is conceived as a variorum edition, including all the essential supplementary materials related to this foundational work in Marx's value theory, published here in English for the first time. In addition to Rubin's main work, this edition includes his four most important related publications, as well as ten debate articles written and published by his contemporary proponents and opponents.

Global Law and Sustainable Development

Given the significant developments in Indian economic and trade policymaking over the last two decades, this book provides an authoritative and timely analysis of the transformation and current state of India's foreign economic policy. The work presents a comprehensive, informed and critical overview of negotiating issues addressed in the recent period leading up to the substantial conclusion of the Trade Facilitation Agreement. The volume also takes into account the geopolitical considerations that influenced the negotiations. Finally, the reform steps being taken by India need to be understood in light of the structural changes in the economy, fuelling domestic compulsion, and the analysis covers this undercurrent in detail. The book will be a valuable guide to academics, researchers and policy-makers working in the areas of international trade law, development economics and global politics.
