Index

The rising volume of critique and commentary about the green economy is preceding a much-needed, global understanding of the concept: the principal aim of this book, accordingly, is to provide a detailed analysis of the emergence, anatomy and workings of the green economy. It traces the evolution of the contemporary green economy idea, interrogates the motivations of green economy strategies and explores how processes of economic-environmental change can be managed. The book draws on examples from across the Global North and Global South to contribute a more diverse understanding of the green economy, and provide useful case study material for students on a wide range of courses.

Studies in Penal Theory and Ethics

This volume explores ethical aspects relating to claims for mitigation arising from culpable state action (or inaction). It answers the important and controversial question: to what extent should the state mitigate sentencing for defendants who have been victims of state misconduct? The volume explores the normative justifications for mitigation and answers many intriguing questions. For example, in terms of the procedural challenges, should the offender have to prove a causal link between state wrongdoing or neglect and the offending? Can a court take judicial notice of state-induced social adversity and apply this consideration to all affected offenders? Other questions relate to the implications for courts and sentencing commissions which issue guidance to courts regarding mitigation at sentencing. To what extent is the offender less culpable as a result of state misconduct, and what are the limits of any resulting sentence reductions? Do sentence reductions for state misconduct undermine proportionality, or deprecate the seriousness of the impact on the victim of crime? Should this factor be included in any sentencing guidelines or possibly even as a statutory mitigating factor? Each contribution explores a distinct, cross-jurisdictional claim for mitigation on the basis of State negligence or misconduct towards the offender. The chapters all address the appropriate response of courts at sentencing.

Is Sentence Mitigation Appropriate?

Responding to the Culpable State

It's Not too Late to Build Toward a Better Future!Rick Caruso has earned a reputation for being a problem solver--somebody who's not afraid of facing big challenges. From his appointment to Water Commissioner and later Police Commissioner in Los Angeles to his bold real estate ventures, Caruso made the decisions he felt were right, even in the face of staunch adversity. In Its Not Too Late, Caruso shares the lessons he learned from his experiences while offering us all a path forward to a better future. At a time when more importance is placed on choosing sides than actually getting things done (let alone done right), Caruso offers refreshing perspective and will teach you how to let go of false divisions, and instead to embrace the search for actual answers and solutions.Togetherness, brotherhood, sisterhood, faith in each other, respect for each other, the ideals preached in almost every faith on Earth are the way forward, no matter how difficult the climb in front of us may seem. And ultimately, the only way we will get back on that path is for each of us to step up, with integrity, in whatever small way we can: for our kids, for our communities, for our country, and for each other.

The Power of Finding Steadfast Solutions

It's Not Too Late

In the fight against climate change, lithium's role in reducing emissions by powering green economies is a mixed blessing. Drawing on groundbreaking fieldwork in Chile, Nevada, and Portugal, Thea Riofrancos explores the environmental and social costs of the global race to expand lithium mining amid supply chain concerns. With haunting descriptions of vulnerable ecosystems, she examines how mining harms landscapes, provokes protest, takes centre stage in national politics, and links countries on the peripheries of the world economy to huge corporations, commodity markets, and powerful investors. Riofrancos traces the history of global extraction from colonial conquest to the 1970s energy crisis to the still-uncertain green future. While an unregulated mining boom could inflict irreversible harm, Riofrancos offers compelling ideas about how to harmonize climate action with social justice. Across the world's extractive frontiers, we encounter the most brutal aspects of capitalism - but also witness inspiring visions for our future planet.

The Che Guevara Library

En una carta a su madre en 1954, un joven Ernesto Guevara escribió: "Las Américas serán el teatro de mis aventuras de una manera mucho más significativa de lo que yo hubiera creído". En America Latina se&nbsp;narra la historia de esas aventuras, trazando la evolución del Che desde el joven e impresionable estudiante de medicina al "guerrillero heroico", asesinado a sangre fría en Bolivia. A lo largo de diecisiete años, esta antología se nutre de los archivos personales de su familia y ofrece lo mejor de los escritos del Che: ejemplos de su periodismo, ensayos, discursos, cartas e incluso poemas. A medida que el Che documenta sus primeros viajes por América Latina, su participación en las revoluciones guatemalteca y cubana, y su ascenso a la prominencia internacional bajo el mando de Fidel Castro, vemos cómo su ferviente compromiso con la justicia social moldeó y fue moldeado por el continente al que llamó hogar. Casi la mitad de este libro se publica por primera vez y es anterior a la llegada del Che a Cuba con la expedición guerrillera de Fidel Castro en 1956. También se incluyen sus notas para su libro inacabado, The Social Role of Doctors in Latin America.

Understand how circular economy principles reshape business strategy and practice. The Circular Economy by Suzanne Smit and Uthayasankar Sivarajah is a practical and theory-informed textbook for postgraduate and final-year undergraduate students studying Circular Economy, Sustainable Business and related business and management courses. Aligned with contemporary module outcomes, it addresses why circular economy thinking is essential for modern business and how organizations can embed sustainability across core functions. The textbook examines how businesses can plan, implement and manage circular transitions by integrating circular economy principles, metrics and decision-making frameworks into everyday business activity. Structured around four interrelated stages, it explores strategic planning, resource organization, leadership and control mechanisms that enable organizations to move from linear to circular models. Real-world examples from Ikea, the Ellen MacArthur Foundation, The Guararapes Group and Flying Tiger demonstrate how circular strategies are applied in practice across industries and regions. This textbook includes: - A four-part framework covering planning, organizing, leading and controlling circular economy initiatives - Clear explanations of circular economy theories, strategies and performance metrics - Application of circular principles to finance, operations, supply chain management and business storytelling - Real-world examples illustrating how organizations manage circular transitions &gt;Whether studying sustainable business or preparing for roles in strategy, operations or sustainability, this textbook equips students with the knowledge and practical insight needed to support and lead circular transformation in organizations.

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • “After his spectacular Lincoln in the Bardo, Saunders returns . . . with a new novel even more spectacular than the last.”—Los Angeles Times A “daring” (Time) novel from the #1 New York Times bestselling, Booker Prize–winning author of A Swim in a Pond in the Rain and Tenth of December, taking place at the bedside of an oil company CEO in the twilight hours of his life as he is ferried from this world into the next “Vibrant, fiendishly clever . . . Vigil is pure Saunders: the death of empathy, he insists, is greatly exaggerated.”—The Boston Globe Not for the first time, Jill “Doll” Blaine finds herself hurtling toward earth, reconstituting as she falls, right down to her favorite black pumps. She plummets towards her newest charge, yet another soul she must usher into the afterlife, and lands headfirst in the circular drive of his ornate mansion. She has performed this sacred duty 343 times since her own death. Her charges, as a rule, have been greatly comforted in their final moments. But this charge, she soon discovers, isn’t like the others. The powerful K. J. Boone will not be consoled, because he has nothing to regret. He lived a big, bold, epic life, and the world is better for it. Isn’t it? Vigil transports us, careening, through the wild final evening of a complicated man. Visitors begin to arrive (worldly and otherworldly, alive and dead), clamoring for a reckoning. Birds swarm the dying man’s room; a black calf grazes on the love seat; a man from a distant, drought-ravaged village materializes; two oil-business cronies from decades past show up with chilling plans for Boone’s postdeath future. With the wisdom, playfulness, and explosive imagination we’ve come to expect, George Saunders takes on the gravest issues of our time—the menace of corporate greed, the toll of capitalism, the environmental perils of progress—and, in the process, spins a tale that encompasses life and death, good and evil, and the thorny question of absolution.

The birth of new nations, independent democracies, the defeat of settler colonialism, the unprecedented growth of cities from Lagos to Cairo; the African continent is booming. So why do myths about underdevelopment, unproductive land and unfounded concerns about overpopulation remain?In a groundbreaking new study of Africa's developmental history, economist Joe Studwell debunks long-held views about the continent's presumed resistance to growth, charting monumental changes in government, demography and asset management. Considering everything from settler colonialism to soil conditions, mineral extractivism to disease development and eradication, and across case studies from Rwanda to Botswana, Studwell persuasively argues that the seizing back of land, people and states across Africa, has also been the seizure of mass economic development. From slavery to independence and beyond, this is the definitive account of the world's second largest continent - and an optimistic look to its future.

How Africa Works

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.

How Entrepreneurialism Captured Higher Education

The Start-Up Factory

This book brings to light a neglected program of cosmopolitan normativity in international law - innate cosmopolitanism. Whilst liberal cosmopolitanism is organized around the abstract individual, and constitutional cosmopolitanism is organized around the achievement of a formal arrangement, innate cosmopolitanism, is organized around a naturally-occurring collective whole: comprising all of humanity at any point in time, and understood as a historical phenomenon capable of exhibiting a will, interests or ends of its own. As such, innate cosmopolitanism is, he argues, is the leitmotif of international law. The book thus brings to light an ill-appreciated stream of cosmopolitan normativity in international law, and subject it to critique.
