Chiniko B: Why Climate Mitigation and
Adaptation has failed in Africa

Why Climate Mitigation and Adaptation has failed in Africa

Routledge Research in Human Rights Law

Business and Human Rights in Africa raises interesting questions about the legitimacy and long-term viability of the business and human rights agenda in Africa, and in developing countries more generally. It explores the key issues for business and human rights in Africa and asks how and to what extent are the UN Guiding Principles changing the law and policy in Africa or the behavior of businesses operating in the continent? The book examines both the international and regional legal and policy initiatives on business and human rights in Africa and how these initiatives are being implemented in selected countries.

History, Politics, Context, and Emerging Trends

Business And Human Rights in Africa

Hampton Publishers

The author feels that warnings given or advice offered are all too often limited to a particular person or group of people and are frequently not fully understood and even forgotten in time. One only has to look at the increasing dissension, turmoil, hatred, political incompetence, corruption, lack of education, and questionable intellect of the masses, just to name a few, to realize that the human race is hurtling down the road of destruction.
Because of what is presently occurring and being planned for in the future, the eventual demise of a cohabited world community is at grave risk. It grieves the author having to witness the silencing of the voices of wisdom, the deliberate creation of social disharmony, the eradication of freedom, and the acceptance of these by the gullible masses.
Although he is merely a speck on the cog in a massive wheel, the author fervently hopes that his highly thought-provoking quotations will cause readers to take off their rose-colored glasses.

"A Look at Today" VOL. I

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.

Transforming Environmental Politics and Policy

Debating Planetary Politics offers a range of perspectives that together provide a comprehensive overview of the issues and ideas central to the emerging field of planetary politics, giving due attention to its history, while primarily and uniquely advancing the contemporary state of the debate.An eco-centric planetary politics first became a prospective new turn for the world politics of humanity when scientists around 1970 discovered that the Earth system, including its biospheric ecology, exists in a biogeochemical composition which enables and furthers the conditions for life on this planet, and that our species is causing an Earth system crisis that is jeopardizing planetary habitability. This book examines how to best navigate through this Earth system crisis and expands on what planetary politics is about by including multispecies and critical perspectives that were not prominent before. It is argued that the current global governance architecture is inadequate for ending the crisis. We will need a new planetary politics. But what do we have in mind when we talk about planetary politics? This complex inter- and transdisciplinary debate does not only require a sound grasp of the relevant Earth system science, but also of the cultural, social, economic, and political worldviews and practices that have brought about the present malaise, and of how old and new alternatives might enable constructive steps forward. This book therefore has a diverse group of expert contributors. They offer a variety of complementary and competing theoretical perspectives from Political Science, Political Theory, Political Economy, International Relations, Philosophy, and Sociology, getting to the core of what thinking in terms of planetary politics signifies in different registers.Establishing planetary politics as its own distinct field, Debating Planetary Politics is important reading for students and scholars from a range of disciplines, including Global Environmental Politics, Political Science, International Relations (IR), Political Theory/Philosophy, Development Studies, Political Economy, Earth System Science, Environmental Humanities, Global/Intellectual History, Political Geography, Political Sociology, and Science and Technology Studies (STS).

As I Am

Die deutsche Wiedervereinigung jährte sich zuletzt zum 35. Mal. Bald wird die Wende älter sein, als die DDR je wurde. Und trotzdem gibt es diese imaginäre Grenze zwischen Ost und West, die sogar die nach der Wende geborene Generation spürt. Sie macht sich nicht nur in sozialen und kulturellen Unterschieden bemerkbar, sondern auch in Bezug auf Einkommen, Vermögen und Jobchancen.Die Beschäftigung mit diesen anhaltenden Differenzen ist für junge Menschen mit Osthintergrund mit vielen Fragen verbunden: Welche Spuren haben die DDR und die deutsch-deutsche Teilung hinterlassen? Behindert eine ostdeutsche Identität den Wiedervereinigungsprozess oder ist sie eine legitime deutsche Teilidentität? Wie gehen wir mit dem Wahlverhalten in Ostdeutschland um? Sollen wir bleiben oder gehen?

 erheben diese jungen Menschen ihre Stimme und rechnen mit eindimensionalen Bildern wie dem des Jammerossis oder Neonazis ab. Gleichzeitig grenzen sie sich von "Ostalgie" und rassistischen Ideologien ab und eröffnen stattdessen vielfältige, differenzierte Sichtweisen auf den 'Osten'. 34 Autor*innen und Künstler*innen nehmen die Lesenden in Form von persönlichen Erzählungen, Essays und visuellen Beiträgen auf eine vielschichtige Perspektivreise mit.
 
 Sie erkunden ihre (post-)sozialistische Prägung und die Ambivalenzen ihres Ostdeutsch-Seins, thematisieren die bis heute sichtbaren strukturellen Brüche, die mit dem Beitritt der DDR zur BRD einhergingen, hinterfragen die recht(sextrem)en Tendenzen in Ostdeutschland und suchen nach einer solidarischen und gleichberechtigten deutsch-deutschen Zukunft.

DER KAPITALISMUS DURCH&nbsp;DIE AUGEN SEINER SCHÄRFSTEN KRITIKER
 
 Wie lässt sich eine gerechtere, zukunftsfähige Gesellschaft denken? Diese zentrale Frage beschäftigt Kapitalismuskritiker seit Jahrhunderten. Rasant und gewinnbringend porträtiert John Cassidy die wichtigsten Ideen, die vor 250 Jahren genauso relevant waren wie heute: von der überraschenden Kolonialkritik Adam Smiths über Rosa Luxemburgs sozialistische Utopie bis zu den ökologischen Visionen des indischen Ökonomen J. C. Kumarappa. Ein Buch, das erklärt, warum der Kapitalismus immer wieder neue Krisen produziert und seinen Kritikern immer wieder Argumente liefert.
 
 »John Cassidy zeigt: Der Kampf zwischen dem Kapitalismus und seinen Kritikern dreht sich nicht nur um wirtschaftliche Ideen, sondern um das Wesen unserer Gesellschaft.«&nbsp;

Édition Blanche - Version alternative du Livre I.Ce Livre décrit la formation de l'origine d'un système.Il montre comment une trajectoire se met en place mécaniquement, sans intention, sans choix, sans interprétation.L'origine n'est pas un point de départ: c'est une structure qui se construit, se densifie et impose la direction qui suivra.Ce texte expose la mécanique interne de cette formation.Il ne propose rien.Il ne commente rien.Il montre la loi intrinsèque qui organise la trajectoire dès son apparition.

In How the Regime Rules, New York Times bestselling author Christopher Rufo delivers a bold, unflinching examination of how America’s founding spirit was transformed—and, in his telling, betrayed—by the rise of modern bureaucratic power.In How the Regime Rules, Christopher F. Rufo—the New York Times bestselling author who nuked Critical Race Theory, gutted DEI in corporate boardrooms, put Somali fraud on the map, and toppled the president of Harvard—delivers his most explosive work yet: a manifesto for the evolving right and a scorched-earth blueprint to shatter the invisible power structure that now governs America.We all know the Regime. It’s the interlocking web of the Deep State bureaucracy, biased media, corrupted academia, and corporate middle managers that enforces conformity, doles out status to favorites, and crushes dissent. Instead of ruling by winning elections, the Regime rules through cultural capture—dictating what you are allowed to say, think, and believe. Rufo strips back the curtain on their operation, turning the Left’s own playbook against them to show how a radical minority seized the commanding heights of American life. He tracks the bureaucratic rot that traded our founding spirit for a system of managed decline, from the administrative state’s silent coup to the ideological hijacking of our elite institutions.But the time for grievance-filled exposés is past. Now is the time to build real, lasting political power.The old GOP establishment failed because it spent decades begging for a seat at the Regime’s table—only to be mocked, then discarded. The "New Right" too often gets distracted by petty revenge and backward-looking saltiness. Rufo rejects both. Instead, he offers a high-energy, forward-looking vision: building a counter-elite that is rooted in real community, culturally dominant, relentlessly entrepreneurial, and unapologetically patriotic—just like the Founding Fathers. Patriots are already building independent businesses, parallel media ecosystems, homeschool networks, and tech startups that operate entirely outside the Regime’s thumb. Rufo provides a practical counterrevolution roadmap—dismantling the power of bloated bureaucracies, purging left-wing racialism from federal agencies, restoring merit in our universities, and shifting the fight from pure culture wars to the economic realities of the working man. Build it well—make it vibrant, profitable, and bold—and the American people will follow in droves.How the Regime Rules moves us past easy wins or empty nostalgia. It equips us with the strategy, tactics, and spirit required for total national reconstruction. Drawing on his hard-won victories and a cold-blooded analysis of how power actually works, Rufo shows how a new generation can seize the initiative, recapture the American spirit, and restore self-government.

And the Art of Counter-Revolution

How the Regime Rules

What if a lie is told to reveal some underlying truth? Are feelings that seem inappropriate, such as hysteria following the death of a celebrity, any less true than the grief we feel over the death of a loved one? Even if the plot of an opera seems preposterous, can't it still express emotions that ring true with the audience? At the heart of this fascinating and iconoclastic book lies Werner Herzog's concept of 'ecstatic truth' - a truth that is often hidden behind the facts and our conceptions of reality but can be gleaned through the poetic imagination, in art, literature and cinema, when we open ourselves up to an aesthetic experience. Written in Herzog's inimitable style, these stories, anecdotes and reflections take us from present-day deep fakes and the opportunities and perils of AI to ancient Egypt and Rome, where rulers resorted to lies and propaganda in the same way as governments do today; from Scott and Amundsen's race to the South Pole to alien abduction claims and the making of Herzog's own films. With its singular vision and unique voice, The Future of Truth is a compelling meditation on the relationship between fact and fiction - evidence and imagination - by one of today's most fascinating and idiosyncratic thinkers.

The Future of Truth

A book about Indian life, inherited behaviour, emotional confusion, family politics, authority, ambition, guilt, language and all the strange things people here quietly accept as "normal."Told through observations, stories and deadpan honesty, In Other Words looks at the country not politically or academically, but personally.Somewhere between humour and discomfort, this book asks a very simple question:how much of who we are was actually chosen by us?

Notes on unlearning a country

In Other Words

Kamal Shair's book is a classic rags to riches story: the village boy, who with determination and education, achieves business success, wealth, more wealth, and then influence and power. What makes it unusual is that it emanates from the Arab world. Rarely among Arabs have individuals from thoroughly modest backgrounds, with no access to links, networks or connections become truly global commercial players. Shair was born in a small town in what was then Transjordan and dragged himself through school (his mother was illiterate), moved to college in Beirut, then sailed off to America (Michigan and Yale) and returned to the Middle East to create a multinational corporate empire engaged in trade, construction and manufacturing. Dar al Handasah - Arabic for House of Engineers - was founded in a small flat in Beirut and today, spans the globe with offices in 37 countries. In its early years, Dar al Handasah fought off competition from established western consultancies to win contracts for prestige engineering throughout the Middle East. Eventually, its activities extended further to Europe, the United States, Africa and Asia. By not following the usual pattern of patronage and favours, Kamal Shair applied a fresh kind of ethic in an environment with a loosely-structured business ethic. In the process, he lived through and witnessed at first hand and at close quarters some of the most dramatic events of the modern Arab world. This is quite an extraordinary tale and a very original prism through which to read the turbulent post-World War II history of the Middle East. At the same time we see the growth, despite all the odds, of one of the world's great engineering and business enterprises in a narrative of epic and inspirational proportions.
