Bodel A: Fractures d'une Nation

Fractures d'une Nation

La crise silencieuse de la France

This book aims to link a company's investments in sustainability to enhanced competitive advantage. It allows the reader a rare glimpse inside different companies (both large and small-sized companies and from across public and private sectors) that have made deep commitments to integrating sustainable practices. While each case is a unique situation, the common thread that runs through them is the non-linear trajectory of these sustainability programmes. The reader can draw powerful insights from the progress of these 13 cross-sectoral companies as they journey from vision to execution and achievement of measurable outcome or even course correction. While the motivations for each corporation to initiate sustainability programmes may have been different, the tangible benefits of the investments provide empirical evidence of the strong relationship to value creation.The situational study from each of the selected organizations emerged after in-depth conversations with multiple stakeholders including CEOs, C-suite, and senior functional heads as well as sustainability professionals in HQ roles. Even though the title of this book rightly hints at its practice orientation, it also integrates concepts and theories for a better understanding of the adopted practices, approaches, systems and decisions.The pivotal role of leadership not just in setting sustainability goals but also in supporting the trans-formative journey at crucial milestones and embedding the right culture is revealed. This book will be useful to students, researchers and teachers of strategy, sustainability and environmental studies, ESG, environmental science, sociology and public administration. We hope this book motivates and galvanises even more momentum in research and practice so that we can preserve our planet for the next generations.

Sustainability and Competitive Advantage

Routledge Studies of the Extractive Industries and Sustainable Development

This book examines the social, environmental, and political sustainability of Peru's mining industry as it seeks to garner the benefits of the energy transition between now and 2050.As the global shift toward net-zero emissions accelerates, Peru is uniquely positioned to play a vital role in the energy transition, thanks to its abundant reserves of critical minerals. This growing global demand presents an unprecedented opportunity for the country to harness its natural wealth to support sustainable development. Yet, the experiences of the past 25 years have shown that maximizing these benefits requires more than resource abundance alone. Social and environmental challenges have too often accompanied mining expansion, leading to significant conflicts around new projects. This book moves the conversation forward by offering a deeper understanding of the structural challenges posed by modern industrial mining and identifying the public policies needed to address them. It goes beyond the traditional 'resource curse' narrative to explore how mining can serve as a driver of inclusive growth - provided it is responsibly managed, transparently governed, and aligned with the needs of affected communities. A key message is that the future of mining in Peru depends on building a stronger, more democratic, and participatory state: one capable of representing all sectors of society, not just corporate interests. By learning from past missteps and committing to institutional reforms that promote dialogue, accountability, and equitable development, Peru can chart a new path. The goal is not simply to avoid conflict, but to contribute to a governance model and the building of institutional mechanisms capable of meeting and resolving variant interests in society, and that enable mining to contribute meaningfully to national well-being and long-term sustainability. While Peru provides key examples of the problems arising from mining development, it typifies problems encountered elsewhere not just in Latin America but further afield. It will therefore be of interest to a far wider readership concerned with the extractive industries.This book will be of great interest to students and scholars of mining and the extractive industries, Latin American development, and natural resource management more widely, as well as those involved in government and NGOs.

Mining and the Peruvian State

Governing Economic Short-Termism examines how corporations in different capitalist economies respond to financialisation and stock market pressures and why they respond in the ways they do. It demonstrates that corporate short-termism - a sustained focus on short-term shareholder value at the expense of employees and a firm's long-term productive capacity - is a distinctive feature of contemporary Anglo-American capitalism and that Germany and Japan continue to diverge. It has macro-level implications not only for inequality and unemployment but also for innovation and competitiveness. The book emphasises the interaction of structural, institutional, and ideational factors. Stock market structures can generate pressures for short-term shareholder returns, but these structures are themselves shaped and mediated by national institutions and ideas about who deserves what. This produces national differences in managerial remuneration structures, hostile takeover threats, and the power of institutional investors, which shape corporate behaviour. The central contribution of the book is to bring ideas more fully into comparative capitalism and corporate governance. It argues that the normative contestability of the rights of dispersed shareholders arising from the nature of contemporary stock-market-based shareholding provides an important foundation for cross-national divergence in corporate governance practices and managerial orientation. It shows how institutional and historical factors make for relatively employee-favouring views in Germany and Japan compared to Anglo-America, where 'shareholder primacy' dominates. Governing Economic Short-Termism develops a theoretical framework that fuses ideational factors with structural and institutional factors. This framework helps explain not only the divergence between Anglo-American capitalism and German and Japanese capitalism, but also why Japanese capitalism is stakeholder-oriented despite formal institutions being shareholder-favouring.

A comprehensive exposition and assessment of the main traditions of political economy and their competing approaches to understanding and defining capitalism, in particular, how they interpret economic and political crisis in contemporary capitalism.

Political Economy and Crisis

A textbook that examines how societies reach decisions about the use and allocation of economic resources While economic research emphasizes the importance of governmental institutions for growth and progress, conventional public policy textbooks tend to focus on macroeconomic policies and on tax-and-spend decisions. Markets, State, and People stresses the basics of welfare economics and the interplay between individual and collective choices. It fills a gap by showing how economic theory relates to current policy questions, with a look at incentives, institutions, and efficiency. How should resources in society be allocated for the most economically efficient outcomes, and how does this sit with society's sense of fairness? Diane Coyle illustrates the ways economic ideas are the product of their historical context, and how events in turn shape economic thought. She includes many real-world examples of policies, both good and bad. Readers will learn that there are no panaceas for policy problems, but there is a practical set of theories and empirical findings that can help policymakers navigate dilemmas and trade-offs. The decisions faced by officials or politicians are never easy, but economic insights can clarify the choices to be made and the evidence that informs those choices. Coyle covers issues such as digital markets and competition policy, environmental policy, regulatory assessments, public-private partnerships, nudge policies, universal basic income, and much more. Markets, State, and People offers a new way of approaching public economics. <ul><li>A focus on markets and institutions </li><li>Policy ideas in historical context </li><li>Real-world examples </li><li>How economic theory helps policymakers tackle dilemmas and choices </li></ul>

Economics for Public Policy

Markets, State, and People

A panoramic history of America’s first climate migrants From the mid-nineteenth century through the dust bowl years of the Great Depression, a new kind of migrant worker became a familiar sight in communities across America. The Hobo traces the journeys of these homeless men and women, showing how hobo work was an adaptation to energy transitions and a harsh and unpredictable climate, and how the hobo played a central role in the histories of industrialization and westward expansion. Challenging common depictions of the hobo as a world-weary, bearded man in ragged clothes, Robert Suits reveals how these wandering laborers were often fastidious and heartbreakingly young. Forever on the move due to economic hardship and climate disaster, they chased harvests and took seasonal jobs in industries like logging and mining. Too often they couldn’t find employment at all. Suits describes the difficult, dangerous, and highly unstable jobs they worked while shedding light on the hobo life and philosophy, from their techniques for stowing away on railroads to their unique blend of socialist, anarchist, and anti-work thought. He traces the emergence of the hobo to the advent of steam and the need for manual laborers in places where this new technology couldn’t reach and describes how a growing reliance on the internal combustion engine brought an end to hobo work. Drawing on oral histories, environmental data, and cutting-edge digital methods, The Hobo paints an unforgettable portrait of an eclectic group of wandering radicals, troublemakers, poets, and writers, demonstrating how their experiences upend some of our basic assumptions about how environments and technologies shape society.

A History of America's First Climate Migrants

The Hobo

This book presents an in-depth look at both the financing and essential technologies of the clean energy transition, providing a uniquely comprehensive guide for professionals, academics, and policymakers.The financing chapters examine the full spectrum of instruments and structures involved in the transition, from venture capital and private equity to green bonds, green loans, and innovative mechanisms such as the Exeltium structure, supranational financing, public-private partnerships, and asset recycling. Case studies of wind, solar, nuclear, and other projects illustrate practical applications of these approaches, and risk mitigation techniques are also discussed.On the technological side, the book explores advanced nuclear systems for electricity and heat generation, alongside technologies for hydrogen production, carbon capture, concentrating solar power, and e-fuels. It highlights the rapidly growing demand for clean electricity driven by the rise in 'hyperscaler' AI data centres, and describes the emerging solutions to this problem. A further theme is carbon accounting and the measurement of how 'clean' technologies and companies truly are. This complex area is elucidated by considering how value creation, societal impact, and emissions data intersect in corporate finance and reporting.This book offers a rigorous, integrated perspective on the techno-financial dynamics shaping the global shift to clean energy, aiming to inform decision-makers and, in its own way, contribute to accelerating this vital transition.

Routledge Studies in Development Economics

This book offers a thorough examination of the economics of financial inclusion and management from a contemporary standpoint. It covers a vast array of financial inclusion-related topics, surveying economies around the globe and analyzes the factors that contribute to both financial inclusion and exclusion.The book discusses the role of technology, examining how technological advances have revolutionized financial services and increased access to populations that were previously underserved. It studies the intersection of financial inclusion and sustainability, highlighting the significance of green finance and its role in fostering inclusive and sustainable economic growth. Financial literacy and the theories underlying financial inclusion efforts are examined, as is the impact of financial criminality. Further, the authors consider regional development and the extant gaps in financial inclusion as well as the urban-rural divide, investigating disparities between urban and rural areas and proposing strategies to bridge the gap. They also assess the effect of inflation and recession and discuss how monetary and fiscal policies can impact inclusion initiatives. The book concludes with a management perspective on financial inclusion, with chapters devoted to various aspects of administering inclusive financial systems. It combines theoretical insights with empirical evidence and case studies, from both developing and developed nations, to illustrate the various approaches and challenges and to provide a comprehensive understanding of worldwide advancements and developments. The comparative approach provides readers with insights into diverse strategies and best practices for overcoming challenges and obstacles and for promoting financial inclusion in various economic contexts.Overall, readers will benefit from the book's comprehensive analysis and exhaustive coverage. It is an invaluable resource for advanced students, scholars, researchers and policymakers.

The Economics of Financial Inclusion

The lives of the world's poorest are already harder, hotter, and shorter, thanks to the actions and emissions of the world's richest. But just as the rich world's emissions are finally falling, emissions from poorer countries are set to increase drastically. We seem to be caught in an impossible bind-but it's not too late to find a way out. In Just Economics, renowned economists Abhijit Banerjee, Esther Duflo (co-recipients of the 2019 Nobel Prize), and Michael Greenstone propose a radical new approach to combatting the climate crisis, arguing that climate deterioration is inseparable from our polycrisis of mass migration, political instability and the resurgence of populist nationalism. We cannot make progress, they show, without compensating those harmed by climate change and incentivizing developing countries to reduce their emissions, to our benefit too. Morality and self-interest are no longer mutually exclusive. Based on meticulous original research and years of fieldwork around the world witnessing and quantifying the real impact of climate change on those most affected, this inspiring work shows it's not impossible to protect the poor while protecting our future-it's just economics.

Why Britain's energy path gave rise to an ideology of endless growth Despite the warnings of climate scientists, the world remains dangerously addicted to fossil fuel. Why has it been so difficult to break this habit? In a major new account, Fredrik Albritton Jonsson suggests that the planetary emergency has profound historical roots reaching back to the making of the first fossil fuel economy in eighteenth century Britain. Rather than look for a single dramatic rupture centered on the steam powered factory system, in Infinite Coal Albritton Jonsson shows that there was a much more gradual and multidimensional development of the first coal economy, stretching from the deep mine and ironworks to the household and the global food system. Albritton Jonsson explores not only the material forces behind the British energy path but also how ideas about fossil fuel energy reoriented politics and society towards a new ideal of growth. At the same time an environmental and political history of Britain’s energy transformation, Infinite Coal explains why and how coal became so deeply embedded in our way of life. Albritton Jonsson argues that the most important legacy of Britain’s early fossil fuel economy is fossil cornucopianism—the idea of a bountiful, never-ending energy source—which still haunts modern politics and economics.
