Donzé P: Luxury Brand Management and
Heritage Revival

Luxury Brand Management and Heritage Revival

Case Studies from the Swiss Watch Industry

Untitled

Public financial management (PFM) has gone through a period of intense change since the Global Financial Crisis (GFC) of 2008-2009 and its aftermath. These developments include the financial response to surging global debt, climate and gender considerations, fiscal transparency, fiscal risks, public investment, and digitalization and AI. At the same time, many of the basics of fiscal policy, financial management, budgeting, accounting, and cash and debt management remain in place. This anthology of collected work, first published through the PFM blog hosted by the IMF, describes these key developments from 2008 to 2025 and organizes them by topic. The book tells the story of these changes and their impact, and will be of interest to policymakers, public finance practitioners, scholars, advisors, and financial historians.Richard Allen
 is a senior consultant and global adviser on public finance. He has advised finance ministers and governments in more than 90 countries worldwide. Richard has held senior positions at HM Treasury, the Board of the European Investment Bank, the OECD, the Asian Development Bank, the World Bank, and the IMF.
 Sailendra Pattanayak
 is currently Division Chief at the Fiscal Affairs Department of the IMF. He has advised a wide range of countries of all income levels on public financial management issues, and has led policy and analytical work on fiscal transparency, GovTech/digitalization, fiscal governance, treasury management, and fiscal risks.

Public Financial Management since the Global Financial Crisis

In striking black-and-white portraits, dozens of survivors of Michigan's cruel sentencing of children to life without parole-now free adults-are portrayed with irrepressible dignity&nbsp; 
 
The United States is the only country in the world that sentences children to serve time in adult prisons without the possibility of parole. The portrayal of children in conflict with the law, particularly children of color, as inherently threatening, dangerous, and adult-like has been key to denying these youth a second chance and foundational in justifying their cruel and excessive punishment in the criminal legal system.. 
 
In&nbsp;Morning from Now On, LaBelle, himself a survivor of childhood incarceration, cocreates astute and nuanced portraits with more than fifty of the hundreds of people in Michigan incarcerated as children. Accompanying essays provide critical context on the history of and impact on a society that locks away our children. 
 
In witnessing these survivors' yearning for freedom, the obstacles they face upon reentry, as well as the wonder and joy of being reunited with their families and communities, this collection reminds us of their unfathomable losses and calls on us to cherish&nbsp;all&nbsp;our children. 
 
With contributions by Jose Burgos, Bernardine Dohrn, Xavier McElrath-Bey, Timothy Connors, and Alison Leal Parker

Palgrave Studies in Economic History

This open access book presents a groundbreaking new perspective on European imperialism in Africa, by focusing on the role of Dutch private entrepreneurs in colonial activities during the so-called ‘Scramble for Africa’. Distinguishing between a state-based ‘Partition of’ and an actor-based ‘Scramble for’ Africa, the book illustrates this process by tracking the entrepreneurial strategy of a group of Dutch entrepreneurs in the Scramble, at a time when the Dutch state itself largely withdrew from the African continent. This book thus investigates w
 hy
 &nbsp;and 
 how
 nineteenth-century Dutch entrepreneurs from the port city of Rotterdam invested significant resources in West and West Central Africa between the 1830s and the 1910s. It demonstrates the trans-national nature of colonial investments in the Scramble for Africa, highlighting the crucial role Dutch entrepreneurs played in trade, production and investment in empires across West and West Central Africa (the Congo Free State, French Congo and Portuguese Angola). The book aims to rethink the Dutch role in European imperialism more broadly and its repercussions in the present day.
 The book takes into account the social and political implications of colonial entrepreneurship as much as the economic and business implications, going beyond a strictly entrepreneurial analysis of success and failure. It will be essential reading for scholars of economic and business history, as well as historians of imperialism, colonialism and trans-imperial relations.Gijs Dreijer
 is a postdoctoral researcher presently working on a grant from the Gerda Henkel Foundation on Dutch entrepreneurs in nineteenth-century Africa, and a lecturer at Erasmus University Rotterdam. Previously, he was a postdoctoral researcher at Leiden University, The Netherlands, and the Alfred D. Chandler Jr. International Visiting Fellow at Harvard Business School. His PhD dissertation on sixteenth-century maritime law in Antwerp was awarded the Frank Broeze Prize for Outstanding Doctoral Thesis in Maritime History. His research interests focus on economic, business, maritime and imperial history.

Private Entrepreneurship and European Imperialism

Frontiers in Economic History

This volume examines the state of the economic history discipline around the globe. It raises and answers questions such as: What are its roots, how did it evolve, and what is the current state of the discipline in each country or region presented?

Transcending traditional Western paradigms, the book gathers renowned economic historians from around the globe to engage in a comprehensive dialogue about economic history's global standing. Investigating its role in shaping future economists, addressing pivotal questions, and its symbiotic relationship with economics, contributors analyze economic history's resonance across continents. By doing so, the chapters are not intended to be a survey of the research on each country, but rather an overview of the discipline: its practice, training, and position within the broader economics discipline.

Addressing an academic audience, this book further analyzes the interplay of human capital scarcity and its profound impact on academia, spotlighting the evolution of economic history in diverse cultural and regional contexts. Scrutinizing historical milestones, such as Schumpeter's paradigm-shifting pillars and Romer's reflections, the book discusses the need to redefine economic history's role and takes readers on a journey through economic history from its pivotal role to its integration into the broader discipline.

More hated, more loved, never out of fashion. Ugly is beautiful... We're not talking about the shoe anymore.In Croc, Boe tells his wild story through lessons on life and leadership that you are guaranteed not to find anywhere else.

Luigi L. Pasinetti was one of the most significant figures in the history of post-Keynesian economics. In his final book, he reflects on the history and future of post-Keynesian economics, as well as a broad range of issues relating to his previous work. He argues that the economics profession has reached a critical impasse, unable to grasp the true nature of the unprecedented world we now inhabit. He examines how modern economic thought has diverged from addressing real-world challenges, challenging outdated frameworks to offer, instead, a path for reflection and reorientation. With a rigorous critique of prevailing paradigms, Pasinetti proposes an alternative framework of analysis extending an invitation for economists to rethink foundational assumptions. Providing his final statement on these issues, this book delivers a compelling critique of the current state of economics and political economy and offers a vital contribution for reimagining these disciplines in extraordinary times.
