Dubhashi M: Handbook on Microfinance and
Innovative Case Studies

Handbook on Microfinance and Innovative Case Studies

Issues and Behaviors

Consumer Economics

Introduces a data-driven framework for measuring governance through a fourteen-component Macro-Governance Index, demonstrating its strong predictive power for national development outcomes and offering practical tools to diagnose governance gaps and guide policy interventions.
Every year, governments borrow trillions, spend billions on development programs, and publish volumes of economic statistics-yet no widely accepted framework exists for answering a deceptively simple question: is governance actually working? Traditional approaches rely on subjective expert assessments or narrowly focused indices that measure inputs rather than outcomes. Macro-Governance Theory proposes that governance can be measured with the same empirical rigor we bring to medicine, engineering, and economics-and that doing so is essential if citizens and policymakers are to hold institutions accountable for results. 

Drawing on 26 years of publicly available data across 170 countries, the book constructs the Macro-Governance Index (MGI)-a fourteen-component composite spanning infrastructure, connectivity, financial inclusion, human capital, security, institutional quality, and economic integration. The MGI correlates with the UN Human Development Index at r = 0.97, and this relationship is not driven by income alone: controlling for GNI, the framework retains substantial independent predictive power, confirming that governance infrastructure-not just wealth-determines whether nations deliver well-being to their citizens. 

The book reveals patterns that conventional measures miss. Novel metrics for credit access and household-level financial reach show that the effective economic gap between the Global North and Sub-Saharan Africa is approximately 70× rather than the 53× that standard income comparisons suggest-a hidden disparity with profound implications for development policy. A governance simulation framework models how investments in one dimension cascade through others, enabling policymakers to identify the highest-leverage interventions for their country's specific development stage. 

Seven detailed case studies-Singapore, Rwanda, Estonia, Botswana, Chile, Costa Rica, and Lebanon-demonstrate how the framework diagnoses governance strengths and weaknesses in practice. An analysis of the ten fastest-rising nations reveals that while successful governance strategies differ radically across political systems, they share common patterns in infrastructure sequencing and institutional development that the MGI captures and quantifies. 

Designed for dual utility, the book serves as an analytical framework for researchers and policymakers and as an accessible assessment tool for citizens through the companion website grademygovernment.com. A full reproducibility dataset covering all 170 countries across seven benchmark years is included, making this not just an argument for governance science but its working prototype.

Studies in International Trade and Investment Law

This open access book examines the evolving role of international economic law in addressing two interrelated challenges of the 21st century: enabling digital development and bridging the digital divide. The rapid digitalisation of the economy has generated significant challenges, including a deepening global digital and data divide and a persistent lack of inclusive digital development. Confronting these challenges head on, this pioneering book brings together experts across different legal subfields, geographies, and disciplines to examine the role and relevance of international economic law in bridging the global digital divide and enabling digital development, particularly from the perspective of the Global South. The contributions are anchored in a distinctive analytical framework that traces future directions through which international economic law interacts with digital development, demonstrating how it may function as a constraint, fade into irrelevance, or eventually act as an enabler. The chapters focus on a broad range of areas, including international trade, investment, tax, development, competition, finance and related regulatory and policy domains; they consider multilateral, regional, and plurilateral frameworks; and draw on a plurality of perspectives from Africa, Asia, the Middle East, and Latin America. The authors employ a wide range of methodological approaches to address issues such as digital sovereignty and digital industrial policy, cross-border data flows and digital global value chains, competition in data markets, AI governance, financial inclusion, and the sustainability-digitalisation nexus. This book speaks to scholars, policymakers, and practitioners in international economic law, development studies, and technology law who seek theoretical and pragmatic pathways for reorienting international economic law as a tool for equitable, sustainable, and meaningful digital development. The ebook editions of this book are available open access under a CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 licence on bloomsburycollections.com.

Bloomsbury Handbooks

A series of diverse insights from emerging and established researchers contribute to this comprehensive volume. Occupying a cross-disciplinary domain and integrating the respective fields of entrepreneurship and marketing, this edited collection of contributed chapters on Entrepreneurial Marketing presents a range of theoretical, conceptual and empirical insights, future trends and critical evaluations. The Bloomsbury Handbook of Entrepreneurial Marketing begins with a series of reflection chapters written by established scholars on how the field has evolved over their careers and on the multiple schools of thought within current scholarship. This is followed by expert contributions on the current state of the interface, where value is to be gained from a diverse range of topics such as Entrepreneurial Marketing in the era of AI and technological development, sustainability and corporate social responsibility, Entrepreneurial Marketing in unconventional settings, and explorations of the dark side of the subject. The final section looks to the future, highlighting key avenues to facilitate further research and carefully outlining that which scholars can unpack to continue broadening existing knowledge of Entrepreneurial Marketing. A truly international collection of industry-specific insights from researchers in the UK, India, Saudi Arabia, Canada, US, Australia, New Zealand and Finland contribute to this handbook on the past, present and future of the Entrepreneurial Marketing interface.

Routledge Studies in Leadership Research

Top-down person-centred leadership approaches have proved incapable of meeting the heightened demand for innovative productive output required to help organisations gain a competitive advantage edge. The post-industrial relational leader model, in contrast, due to its depiction of collective leader capabilities as emergent processes that are forged within devolved collaborative processes, has the potential to facilitate the creative expression of all workplace participants. In turn it could free leaders from the legacy of unrealistic and onerous individualist transformational expectations. Therefore, an interrogation of the coupling of participative relational leadership practices, with the integration of a substantive 'productive diversity' approach, is documented in this text. The objective being to chart the enabling characteristics underpinning a more purposeful economic, environmental, and socially sustainable mode of operating for 21st-century organisations. As potential, and currently formally appointed leaders, along with business school educators, researchers and consultants, need exposure to an alternative, new economy, form of immersive learning, then this text outlines what such an integrated theory and practice postgraduate program of education in business schools could fulfill. Given research on contemporary 'knowledge economy' employees indicates they seek well-being focused workplace cultures then the examples provided in this manuscript are designed to assist this evolutionary process.Leadership and Diversity Managementis a timely exploration in light of the heightened requirement of business for novel solutions to meet the varied economic, ethical and social challenges organisations face, related to fast paced technological developments, increasing global market competition and associated environmental impacts and cultural inequality concerns. To this end, the numerous case study examples outlined will reveal how a more socially orientated form of leadership, in addressing the embodied (cognitive and emotional) needs of diverse organisational participants, will restore a level of humanity to the workplace that has been lacking in organisations throughout the industrial era.Written for academics, researchers and policymakers alike in the fields of Leadership, Organizational Studies, Strategy and Workplace Diversity Leadership and Diversity Management is an excellent addition to the existing literature and will facilitate a deeper understanding of the connectivity factors that mark the post-industrial workplace.

The Jugaad Mindset

Many existing textbooks in behavioural finance take only the perspective of users of financial information, but ignore the implications of judgments during the preparation of financial information. This book uses a holistic approach in examining behavioural accounting and bridges this gap.The book begins by introducing the current knowledge in the emerging area of behavioural accounting and also covers the entire spectrum from the preparation of financial information, auditing, and ultimately, to the interpretation and application of financial information of external users. The comprehensive overview of human elements in accounting makes this book an invaluable resource.

Behavioural Accounting

The old playbook is dead. We have entered an era defined by non-linear dynamics, where AI startups outpace trillion-dollar giants and a single digital token reshapes financial reality overnight. In All Swans Are Black, economic historian Dror Poleg argues that unpredictable, high-impact events are no longer the exception, but the rule. Poleg explains how the shift from tangible factories to intangible assets like software and stories has fractured the relationship between effort and reward. To navigate this chaos, he provides a practical toolkit for a world where nobody knows anything: <ul><li>Leave slack: Maintain flexibility to survive downturns while staying ready for sudden upside.</li><li>Make asymmetrical bets: Lean toward actions where the cost of failure is low but the potential reward is uncapped.</li><li>Find patterns: Stop overanalysing why things happen and start identifying the recurring patterns that actually drive results.</li><li>Stay hungry: Assume that whatever helped you get ahead today will not be enough to keep you there tomorrow.</li></ul> Blending rigorous research with his experience as a combat veteran, executive and tech founder, Poleg shows you how to stop trying to predict the future, and instead learn to start flourishing within its uncertainty.

All Swans Are Black

Hospitality Business Development

To paraphrase Sir Winston Churchill, never has so much pornography been available to so many people for so little. This is the story of how the online adult industry has plummeted from its lofty heights of the late 1990s, when a savvy Web entrepreneur could charge premium prices to thousands of eager subscribers. It is also the story of how the law has completely failed to keep pace with the technological innovations that boosted and then savaged the online adult industry. It concludes by analysing the social impact of virtually unlimited pornography of every description, available to all ages at the click of a button. Useful reading for the general reader and for students and researchers involved with business strategy, the history of technology, cultural studies, sexuality, media studies and technology more generally.
