In an era where public finance reform is more critical—and more complex—than ever, this Palgrave Pivot offers both clarity and actionable insight. Part A provides a comprehensive overview of the core issues at stake in reforming public finances, drawing heavily on IMF and World Bank experiences: What exactly does reform mean? What are the root causes and main forms of the problems countries face? "Which best practices and country examples, including AI opportunities and challenges, illuminate the path forward?" And crucially, what obstacles stand in the way of sustainable, effective change?

Part B delivers a concise, comparative assessment of 70 distinct reform types, weighing their advantages and disadvantages and offering a practical framework for prioritization. Using ten clear criteria, the book helps decision-makers determine which reforms are both urgent and feasible—cutting through the noise of overambitious strategies and highlighting what truly matters.

Challenging the status quo, the book critiques the prevailing technocratic approach to public finance reform, arguing for a shift toward managing political complexity and fostering institutional collaboration. It recognizes that while reform is often framed as a technical challenge, it is inherently political—disrupting entrenched interests, reallocating resources, and confronting inefficiency and corruption. Written for policy makers, finance ministers, their deputies, and senior advisors, this book seeks to move beyond one-size-fits-all solutions and drive real, lasting change in public finance.

Involution is the first book to present a detailed account of how the people coming of age in China’s post-miracle moment navigate job searches, exploitation, educational competition, and familial pressures. Using interviews with young people who participated in the 2022 protests against China’s extreme youth unemployment, this fascinating book shows how people in their early 20s struggle to survive while trying to maintain their dignity, sense of self, and agency amid economic crisis. Based on extensive research carried out in various cities across China, the Gonglao Collective presents a clear portrait of a new generation wracked by anxiety, ennui, and myriad social grievances.

Zeit der Schwäne: Die Anatomie ökonomischer Krisen

Sustainable Development Goals Series

This book examines the long-term dynamics of urban labour market behaviour of women and men over three and a half decades, spanning the period from 1987-88 to 2023-24. It provides a detailed understanding of the topic by incorporating data and information that cover both the supply and demand sides of the labour market. The book distinguishes itself from similar studies by adopting a life-cycle approach for women so as to enable a holistic coverage of various dimensions that hamper or facilitate their economic participation at every stage of life. It examines the gender differences in labour market behaviour and outcomes of young graduate women, married working age women, as well as elderly women. It also undertakes a time-use analysis for understanding the impact of education on gender differences in the distribution of unpaid domestic responsibilities among adolescent girls and boys. Likewise, among the married women fully engaged in household work, the book explores the potential for their integration into the labour force if employment opportunities are accessible at their household. Combining quantitative analysis of secondary datasets with qualitative analysis of primary survey interviews, this study provides an evidence-based depiction of gendered labour market realities and the policy approach to address them. The qualitative approach uses narrative-building to capture the lived experiences of women and men employed in the public transport and sanitation sectors. This book will serve as an important resource for understanding of female labour market by researchers, scholars, policymakers, practitioners, NGOs, and students of gender and labour studies.

9 in 10 women experience ill mental health from poor life-work balance This book is for working women who feel dissatisfied with life, and who want to reinvent themselves to lead successful and fulfilling lives, in their personal life and at work. Our changing and challenging times have left many of us, and especially women, feeling burnt out, chronically worried and uncertain. At the same time, it's difficult to overstate just how much attitudes towards emotional wellbeing have changed in the last five years. As more and more of us struggle about how to exist in this unstable environment, question arise such as: How do you behave if you have a leadership role, given the unattractive role models we see currently in the US and elsewhere? What do you do as a mother when your children tell you they learnt at school that there will be a world war? The change is that women want a life that has meaning and purpose and there's more willingness to call out prejudice and predatory behaviour. Yet many of the same old problems persist. All of this is a case for stressing the importance of emotional connection, creativity and open-mindedness: attitudes and behaviours that will be at the heart of this timely book from pioneer coach, Jenny Rogers.

This book studies one part of the Sundarbans, the largest and one of the most fragile mangrove ecosystems in the world. The study is placed in the context of highly topical international debates on biodiversity, climate change and economic transformation, in a region of South Asia that still faces immense population pressure and severe poverty. An analysis of existing and potential future policies sets the debate in a comparative international perspective that has relevance well beyond the confines of South Asia.
 
 While there have been a large number of studies on the socio-economic aspects of physical quality of life in the Sunderbans, there are very few perception studies except at a basic level. The current volume has two major aspects. The first part contains a detailed study of overall 
 demography and objective life condition
 which includes (a) quality and ownership of private goods – equipment and machinery, livestock, house, land, consumer goods; (b) quality of public goods and amenities and their accessibility; (c) objective measures of relatively abstract factors related to social, political and familial environment such as quality of governance, extent of gender equality, social inclusion, social harmony, security, law and order, family bondings; (d) financial assets and indebtedness; (e) income and expenditure; (f) natural and man-made calamity, and; (g) vulnerability related to points (d), (e) and (f) above.
 
 The second part comprises a detailed study of 
 subjective life satisfaction, and value systems and priorities
 . The former refers to 
 people’s perception
 regarding the various facets of their 
 personal life
 - economic situation, standard of living, family and friends, work life and environment as also their 
 perception about the well-being of the community
 . This refers to the overall social, business, and political environment such as social and help network, social inclusion, communal harmony, participation in civic and social activities, job opportunities and employment generation, government developmental project initiatives, disaster management initiatives, law and order etc. 
 Value systems and priorities
 refer to individual rankings of the factors considered as necessary for personal happiness and for a happy society. It also includes their preferred rankings of government developmental initiatives and views regarding effectiveness and impact of such initiatives.&nbsp;

Discusses a micro- and quantitative study of perception and value systems Covers a broad range of socio-economic aspects 
 Explores links between quality of life and vulnerability, both actual and perceived

A New Kind of Intelligence for a World That's Always Changing

Dieses Fachbuch erläutert den Begriff der Mitbestimmung der Arbeitnehmer und beschreibt die rechtliche und politische Entwicklung des Betriebsrats vom Arbeiterausschuss vor über 100 Jahren bis zum Mitgestalter des heutigen und künftigen Arbeitslebens. Im Mittelpunkt stehen dabei die Entwicklung des Betriebsratsamtes und seine heutigen Mitwirkungs- und Mitbestimmungsrechte im Betrieb und Unternehmen. Dazu gehören ebenso die Verquickung von betrieblicher Mitbestimmung und Unternehmenspolitik durch Betriebsräte in den Aufsichtsräten der Kapitalgesellschaften und im Europäischen Betriebsrat. Der Autor geht auf die Perspektiven der betrieblichen Mitbestimmung und die damit verbundenen Anforderungen an die Betriebsratsarbeit in der digitalen Arbeitswelt ein.Mit zahlreichen Abbildungen, Tabellen, Übersichten und Dokumenten bietet das Buch eine umfangreiche Information über die Entwicklung und die Zukunft des Betriebsrätewesens in Deutschland. Es ist zugleich auch eine Arbeitsanleitung für Betriebsratsmitglieder und Ersatzmitglieder, sowie für Arbeitgeber und Management, aber auch von Interesse für Gewerkschaften, Arbeitgeber- und Wirtschaftsverbände. Informativ ist diese Schrift auch für die Politik, denn von einer qualitativen und vertrauensvollen Zusammenarbeit der Betriebspartner hängt der wirtschaftliche Erfolg eines Unternehmens in hohem Maße ab. Für den Wirtschaftsstandort Deutschland ist eine funktionierende Betriebspartnerschaft eines der Kernelemente der internationalen Wettbewerbsfähigkeit. &nbsp;Für die 2. Auflage wurde das Buch erweitert und aktualisiert. Ganz besonders wurden die Reformvorschläge der politischen Parteien und der Sozialpartner zur Modernisierung des Betriebsverfassungsgesetzes&nbsp; dargestellt und die sich daraus ergebenden „Baustellen „in der Betriebsverfassung beschrieben.

Originally published in 1980, this book examines a range of Government attitudes to their workers arguing that these provide the touchstone for all civil justice. The book looks at the United Nations system of Human Rights protection and the procedures of the International Labour Office (ILO) in implementing the international conventions which protect workers' rights. It also examines in detail the record of 9 countries where workers were seriously abused in the 1970s namely Chile, Czechoslovakia, Equatorial Guinea, Indonesia, Palestine, the Soviet Union, Southern Africa, Tunisia and Uruguay.

World Labour Rights and Their Protection

Originally published in 1964, at a time of much public unease regarding redundancy, this book contains the results of a comprehensive survey, inspired by a suggestion of the then Minister of Labour that the mass redundancies in the Midlands motor industry of 1956 merited a full-scale investigation. The findings are based on an analysis of a 1 in 10 sample of men made redundant in Birmingham in the period. Among the matters examined are the difficulties encountered in obtaining work after redundancy; the range of geographical mobility and the role played by the then employment exchanges in securing new employment. Other chapters focus on the financial hardship caused; the resort to savings and the impact of the redundancies on the gender balance in the workforce. The impact of the dismissals on trade union affiliation is also considered, as are the men's verdicts on the 'fairness' of the selection procedure adopted.
