Emerging Issues and Impact Assessment

The law codes in the Middle East North Africa (MENA) region are a well-crafted blend of civil and Islamic law in which civil law principles do not violate Islamic provisions. Yet, common law principles derived either from English common law or Islamic customary usages remain unidentified and thus ignored. Here, this complex scenario is rectified through a comparative analysis of the primary data (e.g. cases, statutes and arbitral award decisions), adding common law and uncodified Islamic custom to MENA law codes. The purpose of this comparative analysis is to allow common legal principles found in civil, common and Islamic law to be distilled in order to create a new, harmonised international commercial arbitration law code (HICALC) or uniform Arab arbitration law (UAAL) for adoption in the MENA region, where these principles already greatly influence the legal systems and can be readily assimilated into a harmonised or uniform code. The work demonstrates that this new code would lead to improved arbitral award enforcement in the MENA.

A Model Harmonised International Arbitration Law Code for the Middle East and North Africa

A Financial Times Best Book of the Year A groundbreaking exploration of the shifting landscape of technological innovation and how it has transformed into a global phenomenon, challenging the traditional dominance of Silicon Valley. The US is the source of just about all the technologies that define modern life: personal computers, operating systems, smartphones, e-commerce, web browsers, email, search engines, social networks, electric cars, and the rest. And most of the tech companies that created and monetized these technologies are also in the US. In this book, Mehran Gul, the winner of the Financial Times/McKinsey Bracken Bower Prize, asks: is that changing? Less than a decade ago, the sentiment towards Chinese tech compa­nies was often dismissive and complacent. Now the alarm bells are ringing. But as the commentariat pontificates how the US–China tech battle will play out, an equally interesting question to ask is: are there more Chinas out there? Samsung, a South Korean conglomerate, competes with Apple to be the world’s largest manufacturer of smart phones. Arm, founded in the UK, develops chip designs that are used in more than 90% of all mobile devices. Spotify, based in Sweden, is the most popular music streaming service in the world. That’s not all. The world’s most important semiconductor company, TSMC, is in Taiwan. The other most important company in the semiconductor industry, ASML, is in the Netherlands. Some of the world’s best-known games like Minecraft, Candy Crush, and Angry Birds came from gaming studios in the Nordics. Nearly all the major electric battery manufacturers like CATL, LG, and SK On are in Asia. This is a story about technology and the places where it finds its way into the world. Silicon Valley has for half a century been unrivalled in spinning out technologies and fast-growing, high-value, billion-dollar-plus tech companies—the Apples, Facebooks, Googles of the world—that made it the center for the most rapid creation of wealth in human history. Its secrets are spreading to more places. The geography of innovation is shifting. The world has a lot more high-value tech companies than ever before, growing a lot faster than ever before, in a lot more places than ever before. This is a book about these places.

Here is the exact, high-converting book description for your IngramSpark metadata. It is formatted to immediately hook the B2B institutional buyer, clearly establish your transcontinental authority, and fits well within the 4,000-character limit.
Copy and paste this directly into the IngramSpark "Full Description" field.
The Frictionless Silicon Valley Playbook is Dead. Welcome to the Resilience Era.
For decades, global business expansion meant dealing with endless red tape, fragile supply chains, and environments entirely devoid of operational trust. Western media continues to sell a geographic mirage, but the smart money and elite operators have already recognized the truth: the clinical American venture model is breaking down.
In Exit Velocity, Global CEO and fractional COO Tim Lewandowski reveals the unvarnished blueprint he used to bypass Western bureaucratic friction and scale an operational footprint to 79 countries in a matter of weeks. The strategic anchor for this hyper-growth? Abandoning the "Precision Trap" of California and establishing a safe harbor in Dubai.
Written alongside the insights of Emirati humanitarian and business leader H.E. Laila Rahal, this dossier bridges the transcontinental divide. It details exactly how to fuse ruthless Western tech execution with Eastern sovereign leverage (wasta) to achieve frictionless global momentum.
Inside this executive briefing, founders, syndicate leads, and institutional investors will discover:The Resilience Era Framework: How to dismantle fragile, localized business models and build anti-fragile transcontinental operations.
The Sovereign Advantage: The mechanics of leveraging institutional trust and integrating directly into the UAE's sweeping D33 economic mandate.
Bypassing the VC Trap: How to pivot away from legacy Silicon Valley funding and align with the speed and scale of GCC Family Offices.
The Safe Harbor Blueprint: A tactical roadmap for anchoring your legal, financial, and operational infrastructure in Dubai to launch global expansion without the friction.


Exit Velocity is not a theoretical business book. It is a tactical, unvarnished intelligence briefing for operators ready to stop playing defense and start building the next generation of global tech giants.
The future is not being built in the West. It is anchored in the UAE.

Exit Velocity

This book presents an innovative economic theory that successfully integrates the "effective market" and the "capable government" into a unified model. Moving beyond the traditional view of market versus state, it demonstrates how these forces can work together organically, drawing key insights from China's economic development story. The work constructs a comprehensive rational synthesis model, assigning balanced weight to both market mechanisms and government action. It establishes corresponding macroeconomic goals and policy frameworks. Building on this foundation, the book offers a unified analysis of economic growth theory and identifies the optimal balance point between government intervention and market freedom. Ultimately, this groundbreaking contribution, rooted in China's successful practice, offers a vital new perspective for understanding modern economies. It positions China's economic model and theory for greater global influence, contributing fresh pathways for development within today's rapidly changing world and the pursuit of a shared future for mankind.

Theoretical Perspectives

The Innovation of Economic Theory in China

Drawing upon a range of resources of critique (including critical realist social theory, realist international relations theory, the sociology of globalization, the Marxist critique of imperialism, and dependency theory), this book is an essential contribution to the critical understanding of nationalism and imperialism in the global age. It conducts a sustained and in-depth analysis of the relations between the asymmetry in the distribution of economic resources and powers of command, and the recent play of political events involving imperialist wars, including the Russo-Ukrainian and Israeli-Hamas wars. Crucially, the author argues that establishing these connections requires theorizing political economy in the so-called global age as comprised of neoimperial and neoliberal orders. As such, the book offers a new interpretation of the relations between neoliberalism and neoimperialism, and between modes of organizing social relations and resulting global disorders and instabilities. This will therefore be of interest to researchers, scholars, and students working at the intersection of global political economy, international relations, and the sociology of globalization.

Promoting sustainable development is one of the most complex challenges we face. Feasible and effective solutions require an international and interdisciplinary understanding. The fourth volume of the Young Sustainability Law Conference aims to contribute to legal research in this field. It brings together contributions from early career researchers from around the world who take an in-depth look at comparative, interdisciplinary and intradisciplinary aspects of sustainability law. The overarching goal of the contributions is to open up new perspectives for sustainability law and its further development. Simultaneously, the volume highlights the major transformative potential of sustainability law and need for further research in this area.

Sustainability Law: Comparative, Interdisciplinary, and Intradisciplinary Perspectives

What if the biggest obstacle to solving our problems is nothing more than a failure to believe that we can?Rick Caruso has spent his life stepping optimistically into places where other people see no way forward by asking a deceptively simple question: What can we do to make this better? From his appointment as Commissioner to the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power and later the City's troubled Police Department, to the creation of his bold and innovative real estate ventures including L.A.'s world-renowned retail center The Grove, Caruso built a reputation for finding steadfast solutions even in the face of staunch adversity. By employing the great teachers of experience and curiosity, he continues to do what he can to improve Los Angeles, the city he loves, and in Breaking New Ground, he shares lessons learned along the way--while offering us all a path forward to a better future.Again and again, Caruso discovered that breakthroughs rarely come from knowing everything at the outset. They come from asking better questions, bringing the right people into the room, listening without ego, separating ideology from reality, and refusing to give up until workable solutions emerge. Ultimately, they require a steadfast dedication to the belief that there is always a solution and that defeat is not an option.Breaking New Ground is the story of how his philosophy was forged--from the examples of immigrant grandparents and a father who lost one fortune and built another, to Caruso's own successes, failures, public battles, family life, faith, and unexpected turns through business and government.Caruso is less interested in prescribing a formula for becoming successful than in exploring how successful problem-solvers think: how they distinguish what matters from what merely makes noise; how they balance conviction with compromise; how they recognize when conventional wisdom has stopped working; and how they remain fearless enough to see difficult decisions through.Part memoir, part argument, and part blueprint for action, Breaking New Ground offers a timely proposition for anyone confronting a problem that feels too complicated, entrenched, or divisive to solve.There is always another way forward. Sometimes you simply have to be willing to build it.

The Power of Finding Steadfast Solutions

Breaking New Ground

This exciting new edition of Strategy and Human Resource Management explores how people strategy shapes organisational survival, performance and competitive advantage. It shows how HR strategy differs across organisations, industries and societies, and why those differences matter, offering a nuanced understanding of HRM in context rather than one-size-fits-all solutions. Written by world-renowned authors, it provides a rigorously analytical, research-led approach that first explains what managers actually do and the reasoning behind their decisions before considering implications for practice. Theory is brought to life through real-world examples, cases and vignettes, making complex ideas accessible and relevant. Alongside core principles of strategic HRM, the book examines the critical features of the environments in which they are applied, delivering a richly grounded, practice-orientated analysis for students and practitioners alike. New to this edition: - Fully updated throughout in terms of citing latest research and application. - New coverage of AI and robotization in the context of HRM an implications for organizational strategy. - New coverage of sustainable HRM. - New coverage of HR analytics. - New coverage of post-pandemic/Covid working and implications for employees and employers. - New and updated case studies. - Strengthening of practical tools and application. - Increased use of figures, table and other illustrations.

South Africa's struggle in balancing its domestic needs while playing a dynamic developmental role in the African region and global context exposes a complex web of relations shaped by its geostrategic location on the continent, and the world, and the staggering legacies of colonialism and apartheid. As such, understanding the complexities of the global economy and of South Africa's place in it, is of great importance. This book builds upon an existing body of literature which has demonstrated that while the post-apartheid South African state has recast its nation building goals - with advances having been made notably in the area of a stellar post-apartheid constitution, policy directives, and democratic political integration - economic integration and policy implementation presents a projection of captured interests, where big business concerns are entrenched in the post-apartheid state's apparent neo-liberal turn.The main focus of the book is to contextualise issues relating to three main trends in global discourses on development, which are significant for South Africa, and indeed, for the study of the political economy of regional development in the country from the prism of South Africa as a global capitalist state. These trends include the impact of globalisation, regionalisation, and the marginalisation of South Africa and indeed the African continent in the global economy, thus unpacking the possible role that South Africa might play in regional development.This volume will be a valuable resource to academics, researchers and students in the fields of regional studies, economics and political theory as well as policymakers, planners and local economic development practitioners.

This book comprises a collection of essays that delves into the economic history of Europe since the 1970s, offering a fresh perspective on the period by examining the interplay between universalist and particularist claims to validity. By exploring how these claims were constructed, justified, and contested, this book sheds new light on the ways they shaped political and social change in contemporary European history. Through a critical analysis of the economy as a dynamic field, the essays uncover the complexities of universalist and particularist concepts, their interactions, and the tensions they generate, providing a nuanced understanding of their role in shaping modern Europe.Focusing on the intersection of economic history, political theory, and social change, this book will appeal to students, scholars, and readers interested in European history, economic thought, and the evolution of contemporary political ideologies. It is particularly relevant for those studying the historical roots of current debates on globalization, identity, and the challenges to universalist ideals in an increasingly fragmented world.The chapters in this book were originally published as a special issue of the European Review of History.
