Adam Smith

An inquiry into the nature and causes of the wealth of nations

Ips-nathan Lecture Series

Mr Tan Chong Meng is the Institute of Policy Studies' 14th S R Nathan Fellow for the Study of Singapore. This book is an edited collection of his three IPS-Nathan Lectures, delivered from March to May 2024, and includes highlights of his question-and-answer segments with our audience.

Supply chain management has gained increased prominence in light of disruption caused by COVID-19, the unpredictable US-China trade war, and the Red Sea crisis. Furthermore, discussions surrounding deglobalisation, market bifurcation and supply chain decarbonisation raise questions about their potential impact on global trade.

In this three-part lecture series, Mr Tan will examine the past, present and future of trade, and assess key drivers and significant outcomes arising from these profound changes, drawing on his perspectives as a business leader in ports, supply chains and energy. The lectures will also delve into the remarkable expansion in global trade, the role of ports and maritime shipping, and importantly, shed light on the anticipated trajectory for Singapore's role as a maritime hub. Amid uncertain environments driven by geopolitical tensions, climate risk and technological disruption, how can we ensure the sustainability and resilience of our supply chains? How can Singapore continue to play a role as a connector of the world through trade?

The IPS-Nathan Lecture series was launched in 2014 as part of the S R Nathan Fellowship for the Study of Singapore, named after Singapore's sixth and longest-serving president. It seeks to advance public understanding and discussion of issues of critical national interest for Singapore.

“Economic development involves deep, encompassing, and sustainable change. Opportunities and challenges are inherent in the development trajectory and outcomes. This is the thread that connects the contributions to&nbsp;Structural Transformation and Economic Development in Africa: Opportunities and Challenges&nbsp;that provide an array of insights across a range of issues on diverse aspects of the development project in a variety of African settings.&nbsp; In an era of global uncertainty and rapid technological change, this book provides a timely reminder that development is a multifaceted project that requires simultaneous action on multiple fronts.”
—&nbsp;David Luke, Professor in Practice, Firoz Laji Institue for Africa, London School of Economics and Political Science
&nbsp;
This book provides unique insight into the challenges and opportunities of structural transformation and economic development in Africa. It highlights the vital role played by enterprise, in particular the participation of women in this process, and the importance of supply chains and global value chains. Detailed case studies from across Africa show the range and variety of economic issues faced within the continent. A particular focus is given to infrastructure development, food security, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, currency crises, entrepreneurship in Africa, microfinance, the circular economy, and corporate social responsibility.
This book offers an applied and policy relevant guide to the structural transformation of African economies at national and local levels. It will be relevant to researchers and policymakers interested in development economics, global supply chains, and international trade.

Structural Transformation and Economic Development in Africa

This book investigates the legitimacy of Economic Criminal Law. Initially, it examines the history of the intersection between criminal law and economy, aiming at finding a possible evolutionary trait. Then it defines what is meant by Economic Criminal Law, and whether it would be necessary and possible to subsume it to the protected interest theory. Subsequently it analyzes theories that intend to equate the&nbsp;administratisation&nbsp;of criminal law, highlighting the proposed administrative-punitive. Finally, the conclusion searches for the best legal construction of the rules for economic infractions, limiting the role of criminal law in this context.&nbsp;The imperiousness of effective protection of the economic environment seems undeniable today. The structure of post-industrial capitalist system reveals, paradoxically, features unwanted by the existing mode of production, which the contemporary sociology understands as the reflexivity of risk society. In this sense, the economic agents undertake conduct detrimental to the conformation of the economic society, undermining the smooth functioning of the economy itself. In this context, the law, especially the criminal law, is used to try to head them off. It happens that such employment of legal and judicial branch clashes with their traditional boundaries, delineated since the Enlightenment. Complex economic behavior are criminally prohibited, in most cases through typifying proactive formulations, which are inconsistent and display as mere means of behavioral conformation, subject to administrative jurisdiction, which leads to the administrativization of the criminal law.

An Analysis from a Brazilian Perspective

Economic Criminal Law

This book considers the derivative action, an important corporate governance tool which is commonly considered to serve two basic functions, i.e., enabling shareholders to gain redress for a wrong done to their company and deterring potential breaches of directors' fiduciary duties. This book critically examines the derivative action from theoretical, evolutionary, and comparative perspectives. It considers how controversial issues such as locus standi, demand requirements, indemnity cost orders, information asymmetry and res judicata are approached in selected civil law countries as well as throughout the Commonwealth. The book also assesses whether derivative litigation could fulfill a similar role in China, which is one of the most rapidly developing economies in the world, yet lacks adequate corporate governance mechanisms. The ultimate aim discussed in the book is how to establish a remedial mechanism which makes derivative actions more accessible and consistent, while maintaining the balance between corporate efficiency and protecting minority shareholders' interests. Lastly, based on different approaches in the latest reforming infrastructure, it explores whether there is a general converging trend for derivative actions between the two major legal systems.

Hannig Núñez analyzes the processes behind technology transfers at a state-decision-making level in Latin America. She challenges the conventional notion that the United States and China hold a dominant technological presence over the region, highlighting the increasing influence from both middle powers and regional actors.

Transparency has become a ubiquitous presence in seemingly every sphere of social, economic, and political life. Yet, for all the claims that transparency works, little attention has been paid to how it works - even when it fails to achieve its goals. Instead of assuming that transparency is itself transparent, this book questions the technological practices, material qualities, and institutional standards producing transparency in extractive, commodity trading, and agricultural sites. Furthermore, it asks: how is transparency certified and standardized? How is it regimented by 'ethical' and 'responsible' businesses, or valued by traders and investors, from auction rooms to sustainability reports? The contributions bring nuanced answers to these questions, approaching transparency through four key organizing concepts, namely disclosure, immediacy, trust, and truth. These are concepts that anchor the making of transparency across the lifespan of global commodities. This title is also available as Open Access on Cambridge Core.

The Law and Geoeconomics of Investment Screening

&lt;p&gt;This book is a comprehensive exploration of decision-making in the realm of international trade and logistics operations. It covers complex elements of market management analyzing economic, management, and behavioral theories and applications like macro and micro-economic theories, international financial strategies, PESTEL (political, economic, social, technological, environmental, and legal) factors, modes of entry, export-import strategies, marketing-mix strategies, and organizational design for doing international business. This book blends both global and regional focuses across continents and selected countries. The convergence of divergent factors in decision-making on trade negotiations and logistics choices constitute the broad focus of the book besides the discussion on new concepts and management practices. The book has chapters spread over three parts comprising fundamentals of international trade, preparation for logistics, and unveiling strategic choices.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The book connects to the learning concepts of knowing-doing-being through simulations platforms. Chronological data on exports and imports of selected countries has been provided in chapters to support the discussions on the changing trends of international trade. This book serves as a comprehensive guide for researchers and students. It provides a nuanced assessment of market transitions, offering strategic insights into the complex landscape of contemporary business management.&lt;/p&gt;
