Handbook of Labor, Human Resources and Population Economics

Palgrave Studies in Economic History

This edited volume reinterprets Italy’s economic development through the lens of culture. Building on Nicola Rossi’s earlier monograph, this book argues that Italy’s long-term economic performance is best explained not by institutions or resources alone, but by enduring cultural attitudes; particularly a persistent scepticism toward markets, innovation, and economic modernity.Bringing together contributions from scholars across economics, history, sociology, law, and cultural studies, the volume examines how these attitudes are expressed in domains such as literature, cinema, education, fashion, legal systems, and public discourse. It treats these cultural “conversations” as key evidence of how Italians have understood and debated growth, modernity, and state intervention over time. The book is structured in two parts: the first traces long-term cultural continuities since unification, while the second examines the post-war “economic miracle” as a brief period in which a pro-growth culture temporarily prevailed before receding. Overall, the volume offers an interdisciplinary account of how cultural beliefs have shaped Italy’s economic trajectory and its tensions with modern economic change.&nbsp;Nicola Rossi
 is Chair of the Commission on the Unobserved Economy and Tax and Social Security Evasion at the Italian Ministry of Economy and Finance, and former Full Professor of Political Economy at the University of Rome Tor Vergata. His research focuses on economic history, public policy, and the cultural determinants of economic performance. He is the author of 
 Reframing Italian Economic History, 1861–2021
 (Palgrave Macmillan, 2024) and has published widely on growth, institutions, and Italian economic development.

This volume explores the hidden history of women's saving and investment practices in Spain from the 15th century to the present day. Despite legal and social limitations, women played active roles in building wealth, from early loan networks to modern corporate leadership.Through case studies and regional examples, the book explores how women navigated changing laws and financial systems, often finding creative ways to manage assets and invest. Whether as discreet shareholders, family lenders, or pioneering executives, women have long shaped Spain’s financial history.This book will appeal to students, scholars, and researchers of economic history, economics, and related disciplines who are interested in the history of women's saving and investment practices.&nbsp;

India Studies in Business and Economics

This book provides a comprehensive perspective by taking an interdisciplinary approach to issues of attaining SDGs in India. It starts with policy priorities and opportunities for interlinking of different SDGs with sustainable industrial transformation. Subsequently, various chapters present a blend of analytical methods that are primarily rooted in economics and yet have an inter-disciplinary approach, highlighting pathways towards achieving SDGs, especially SDG1, SDG2, SDG3, SDG4, SDG10, SDG11, SDG13, and SDG15. Gender equality and empowerment of women is a common cross-cutting issue across all three themes towards achieving SDG targets. Chapters are divided into three themes climate change, health and nutrition, and poverty and inequality, with a special chapter devoted to each theme providing the overall picture. The book’s content is a great resource for students, researchers, policymakers, and development practitioners studying these SDGs related to India as the country moves forward on its growth path.

Challenges and Way Forward

SDGs Amidst Multiple Global Shocks

Seeds of Power

The Second Republic is a comprehensive institutional blueprint for India's transition into a developed economy (Viksit Bharat) by 2047. In this book, Ghani, a former World Bank economist and a prominent voice in Indian developmental economics, moves beyond traditional policy debates to focus on the State capacity engine, with his most compelling diagnostic being the two-engine trap. Since the 1991 reforms, India has developed a high-performance private sector engine; however, this is tethered to an obsolete state engine, characterized by nineteenth-century colonial structures and twentieth-century socialist bureaucracy. To address this, India not only needs new laws but a 'Second Republic', a fundamental re-architecting of the state's core institutions to match the dynamism of its people. 

The book introduces the 4F architecture--functions, finances, functionaries, and foundations--as the integrated mechanism for national renewal, analysing why previous reforms have often stalled. With themes including unlocking the gender dividend (Shakti Superpower), building a modern justice platform, and navigating the geoeconomic frontier of artificial intelligence and climate change, it focuses on the 'plumbing' of the nation: the courts, civil services, and digital systems. A manifesto for 2047, The Second Republic is a timely intervention, shifting the goalposts from 'growth at any cost' to 'growth through institutional excellence', making it an essential read for those trying to understand why India's path to $30 trillion requires more than just capital.

Sustainable Business Development

This open access volume connects normative foundations, strategic decision-making, and hands-on implementation of sustainable business development practices within a single volume, rather than treating them as separate domains.

Another distinguishing feature is its strong practice–theory balance: conceptual contributions are consistently linked to real-world cases, methodologies, and actionable instruments. Finally, the volume stands out for its truly global authorship, with contributors from many countries and regions worldwide.Academics and researchers working on sustainable development, policymakers, and corporate executives managing organizational change and development will find this book of interest.

A history of the technology of supply-chain management from punch cards to neural nets, and how the ambiguity built into that technology helps companies and exploits workersSeeing Like a Supply Chain is a compelling investigation into the hidden networks that drive our global economy. Miriam Posner presents a blow-by-blow account of the technology of supply-chain management from punch cards to neural nets, revealing how the system's built-in ambiguity shields companies from accountability while exploiting workers.Drawing on more than a decade of research, Posner shows how computation converged with the growth of global trade to allow for a lightning-quick, astoundingly efficient supply chain that lets corporations source products without any notion of where their goods are actually being produced. At a time when multinational firms fear the reputational damage of human rights violations in the making of their products, the supply chain's shroud of vagueness is a feature, not a bug. Posner shows how this is technically accomplished-and how the strategic disavowal of information extends through every step of that chain.
