The Strategic Playbook for Sustainability in Luxury Industries

Purposeful Luxury

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.

Deep Decarbonization of Modern Energy Networks for Climate-Energy-Sustainability Nexus

The accelerating global demand for sustainable solutions has catalyzed the integration of emerging technologies with sustainability-driven innovations. This book explores the intersection of technology, engineering, and environmental responsibility through six critical themes: Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning for Sustainability, Cloud Computing Technologies, Sustainable Energy Technologies, Sustainable Materials and the Built Environment, Sustainable Actions, and Innovative Engineering and Technology.Artificial intelligence and machine learning play a pivotal role in optimizing resource management and enabling low-carbon decision-making, while cloud computing technologies provide scalable platforms for collaboration and innovation. Sustainable energy technologies such as solar, wind, and bioenergy are examined as vital pathways toward clean power generation. The discussion extends to sustainable materials and the built environment, emphasizing eco-friendly design and circular economy principles. The book also highlights sustainable actions driven by policy, behavioral change, and community engagement. Together, these domains represent a multidisciplinary pathway toward achieving global sustainability goals, fostering a balance between technological advancement and ecological preservation.This book is a key resource for leaders, academia, policymakers, professionals, and researchers to advance sustainable development through science, technology, and engineering. It provides valuable insights for integrating AI, renewable energy, and sustainable engineering into practical applications for a greener future.

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.

Critical University Studies

How the cult of capitalism reshaped the American university--and hollowed it out from within.Over the past several decades, American universities have been remade as engines of entrepreneurial ambition. Technology transfer offices, business incubators, pitch competitions, innovation hubs, and leadership centers now sit at the heart of campus life, radically altering how institutions describe their purpose, structure curricula, and imagine student success. The Start-Up Factory argues that this shift has come at a steep cost.James Rushing Daniel traces the rise of entrepreneurialism in higher education and shows how universities came to embrace the figure of the founder as both ideal and benefactor. Business leaders--many of them major donors--are celebrated as singular visionaries, their values imported into academic life and framed as models for intellectual work. This reverence, Daniel argues, has narrowed the university's sense of public responsibility for distorted academics, and transformed institutions into finishing schools for aspiring entrepreneurs. Moving across policy and historical documents, institutional rhetoric, teaching materials, site visits, and interviews, The Start-Up Factory documents how entrepreneurial thinking has reshaped the pedagogy, culture, and mission of the American university.The consequences of this entrepreneurial focus extend far beyond campuses. By promoting the myth of the self-made billionaire, universities help legitimize extreme inequality and normalize forms of power that undermine democratic life. At a moment of deep institutional crisis, when the influence of the billionaire class on college campuses is increasingly absolute and the future of higher education is uncertain, The Start-Up Factory offers a clear-eyed account of how universities arrived here--and why reclaiming their autonomy has become an urgent task.

The Political Economy of Oil in Venezuela

In a movement-defining book, the "godmother of the current moment of dissatisfaction with establishment politics" (The New York Times) tells the story of the rising anti-monopoly movement and charts a course to a democratic future In a short, sharp political book, The Nation magazine's "Anti-Monopolist" columnist and "a prophet of the resurgent left" (Franklin Foer) explains the battle between the forces of oligarchy and the rise of the new anti-monopoly movement. Using the stories of modern anti-monopoly heroes including Federal Trade Commission Chair Lina Khan; blueberry farmer Hugh Kent, who turned his battle with Driscoll's into a farmers' movement; and Doha Mekki, the daughter of a Sudanese asylum seeker who took on Google and won; Teachout explains how anti-monopoly cuts across traditional political lines and gives real teeth to economic populism.Teachout, a scholar of the law of democracy and a politician whose run for governor of New York State shocked the political establishment, argues that monopoly is the architecture of private tyranny, and that breaking corporate power is essential to building a new democracy. From AI to agriculture, healthcare to energy, Americans understand that corporate concentration doesn't just cause inequality; it organizes power. Anti-Monopoly gives that feeling a name, a history, and a way forward. After a spate of books out of the Abundance movement arguing that we need to remove local democracy and focus on efficiency at scale, this book provides a sharp counterpoint.
