The question of job creation in Malawi

Where are the Rural Youths?

'One of the most original and important books on Africa in years' FINANCIAL TIMES'A compelling case for the continent's potential' Bill GatesThe birth of new nations, independent democracies, the unprecedented growth of cities from Lagos to Cairo; the African continent is booming. So why do myths about underdevelopment, unproductive land and 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, 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.

Success and Failure on the World's Last Developmental Frontier

How Africa Works

By the closing months of 2025, the world did not feel like it was merely going through turbulence. It felt like it was running out of room to pretend.
Prices moved without logic. Institutions spoke without trust. Technology accelerated faster than people could metabolize. Work, identity, attention, and belief all began tightening into the same pressure chamber. Then 2026 arrived, and the pattern that had been building for years finally exposed itself in full.
The Year Everything Collided is a narrative driven work of philosophical nonfiction written in a novel style. It traces how modern life reached a convergence point, where economic volatility, political theater, digital manipulation, psychological burnout, and global instability stopped behaving like separate problems and began acting like one system under strain.
This book does not chase headlines. It follows structure. It shows how collapse rarely arrives as one dramatic event, but as a slow failure of illusions, until reality becomes too loud to ignore. Along the way, it introduces the Observer, a disciplined way of seeing that refuses reaction, refuses sedation, and learns to read the architecture beneath the chaos.
What emerges is not just a diagnosis of an era, but a blueprint for the next one. Because when the old world hits its limit, the future belongs to the ones who can still see.

The Year Everything Collided

GOBERNANZA GLOBAL Y CRECIMIENTO EN LIBERTAD. Colección EPINOMIS, Biblioteca de Cultura Occidental, No. I

In today's complex and uncertain world, urban and territorial resilience is vital. From natural and human-made disasters to climate change and globalization, cities and regions face challenges that demand preparedness, adaptability, and transformability, i.e., the capacity to absorb shocks. As social-ecological and complex adaptive systems, they must strengthen their ability to respond and transform. Cultural heritage is increasingly recognized as a territorial asset that enhances resilience by providing identity, tangible resources, and historical knowledge useful for risk prevention and management. In the 21st century, heritage-whether underwater, rural, or embedded in urban space -is seen not as a remnant of the past but as a living system and a source of identity, creativity, economic innovation, cohesion, and environmental sustainability. This Reprint responds to the need to rethink the role of heritage in building resilience by assembling twelve articles that examine its activation across diverse geographic contexts (marine, urban, rural, etc.). The contributions converge on a pivotal argument: heritage must shift from a preservation-focused paradigm to one of active contribution, becoming a strategic asset within place-based development and a driver of new economic activities and innovation. The papers span the Mediterranean, Southeast Asia, Latin America, sub-Saharan Africa, and Europe and address varied forms of heritage, including maritime and underwater cultural heritage, architectural ensembles, vernacular landscapes, traditional practices, and cultural-creative industries.

Cultural Heritage as a Contributor to Territorial/Urban Resilience

Close to the crashing waves of Boscastle Harbour in Cornwall, the Museum of Witchcraft &amp; Magic (MoWM) contains one of the world's most loved and most influential collection of magical objects. The museum has changed much during the sixty-plus years that it has been open, yet it retains the imprint of one man in particular: its founder Cecil Williamson. This book tells Williamson's story, and covers his life as a film-maker, a MI6 operative, and an owner and creator of several museums.



Rupert White writes with an honesty and integrity, that never detracts from his affection for the person who is his subject' Professor Ronald Hutton
'A truly exhaustive account' Simon Costin
'A fantastic book, that provides us with many more pieces of the jigsaw' Steve Patterson
Rupert White has pulled together a history of Cecil Williamson's life and his museums - an extraordinary task for which we should all be extremely grateful. From the foreword by Graham King.

En un mundo marcado por la incertidumbre y el cambio constante, La flexibilidad del ser humano: Sociología de la felicidad y la inteligencia propone una reflexión profunda sobre una de las capacidades más determinantes de nuestra especie: la habilidad de adaptarnos, transformarnos y reconstruirnos frente a nuevas realidades.
Desde una perspectiva sociológica y humanista, la obra analiza cómo la felicidad y la inteligencia no son cualidades aisladas ni estáticas, sino procesos dinámicos que se desarrollan a partir de nuestra relación con el entorno, la cultura, la educación y nuestras propias decisiones. El autor plantea que la grandeza humana radica precisamente en esa capacidad de cambio consciente: en la posibilidad de cuestionar, aprender, evolucionar y reconfigurar nuestra manera de pensar.
El libro invita al lector a comprender que la flexibilidad no es debilidad, sino fortaleza; que adaptarse no significa rendirse, sino crecer; y que la felicidad no es un destino fijo, sino una construcción social y personal que requiere inteligencia emocional, reflexión crítica y apertura al cambio.
Una obra para quienes desean entender mejor la condición humana y desarrollar una visión más consciente, adaptable y profunda frente a la vida.

Technological Disruption in Legal Education and Practice

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.
