The book provides an overview of the challenges and opportunities presented by AI across the insurance value chain. As insurers rapidly integrate machine learning, deep learning, and predictive analytics into underwriting, claims processing, fraud detection, and pricing, the need for robust ethical frameworks and responsible AI governance has become paramount. Algorithmic structures and data pipelines that shape modern insurance systems, that review potential sources of bias, opacity, and inequality are examined. The book addresses technical, legal, and organizational dimensions of ethical AI adoption-ranging from explainability and accountability mechanisms to data privacy, informed consent, and inclusion. The book serves as a foundational guide for developing AI systems in insurance that are not only efficient but also equitable and socially responsible. The book will be invaluable for professionals, scholars, data scientists, actuaries, and policymakers.Key Features:<ul> <li>Explores cutting-edge applications of AI across underwriting, claims processing, fraud detection, and dynamic pricing in the insurance industry.</li> <li>Reviews the latest advances in algorithmic fairness, explainability (XAI), and bias mitigation techniques tailored to insurance models.</li> <li>Analyzes global regulatory and ethical frameworks, including GDPR, AI Act, and sector-specific policies, shaping responsible AI adoption.</li> <li>Provides real-world case studies and technical insights into building accountable, transparent, and inclusive AI systems for insurers.</li> <li>Equips practitioners, data scientists, and policymakers with strategic tools to design, govern, and audit ethical AI in insurance operations.</li> </ul>

Cambridge Companions to Law

The Cambridge Companion to World Trade Law offers expert but compact discussion of the diverse perspectives, enduring issues, and emergent challenges in the field. This volume offers a lively and thorough overview of the subject in all its dimensions. It takes stock of the state of the field of trade law without allowing current events to dominate key debates. It is intended to be appreciated not only by a legal audience as a collection of concise yet thoughtful reflective pieces, but also by readers across the fields of business, economics, finance, sociology, diplomacy, and international relations who may have no specialist trade law knowledge. It will appeal not only to the novice but also to the seasoned trade law expert who might wish to have at hand a single-volume compendium of current expert analysis across the different dimensions of trade law.

'Dazzling ... The remarkable story of how British culture was transformed by émigré architects, filmmakers and writers' Guardian Britain. Made in Europe. In the 1930s, tens of thousands of central Europeans sought sanctuary from fascism in Britain. While the rainy, seemingly quaint island they discovered on arrival was a far cry from the dynamism of Weimar Berlin or Red Vienna, it was safe, and it became home. Yet the émigrés had not arrived alone: they brought with them new and radical ideas, and as they began to rebuild their lives and livelihoods, they transformed the face of Britain forever. Drawing on an immense cast of artists and intellectuals, including celebrated figures like Erno Goldfinger, forgotten luminaries like Ruth Glass, and a host of larger-than-life visionaries and charlatans, the historian Owen Hatherley argues that in the resulting clash between European modernism and British moderation, our imaginations were fundamentally realigned and remade for the better. In casting what Bertolt Brecht called, in a new German word, a Verfremdungseffekt, an 'alienation effect', on Britain, the aliens made us all a little bit alien too. Provocative, entertaining and meticulously researched, The Alienation Effect opens our eyes to the influence of the émigrés all around us - many of our most quintessentially British icons are the product of this culture clash - and entreats us to remember and renew our proud national tradition of asylum.

How Central European Émigrés Transformed the British Twentieth Century

The Alienation Effect

Contemporary Asia in the World

In recent years, China and the United States have each turned economic interdependence into an instrument of coercion, using their dominant positions in international trade to push states and firms to comply with their political goals. What is distinctive about this form of economic pressure, and how can other countries fight back? This groundbreaking book explores the weaponization of economic interdependence and its implications for the international order through a wealth of new and original data on China's economic statecraft. Victor D. Cha, Ellen Kim, and Andy Lim examine how and in what ways the United States and China have deployed economic coercion, focusing on China's extensive use of this tactic over the past three decades. They analyze a vast data set that includes more than 600 cases of China's economic bullying of states, companies, and individuals in North America, Asia, and Europe. Cha, Kim, and Lim propose a multilateral strategy of "collective resilience" to counter intimidation, showing how targeted states can band together, leverage trading relationships, and threaten retaliation. Synthesizing new insights from unique trade data with international security expertise, this timely book sheds new light on how China exercises economic power--and it provides a playbook to deter bullies and rebalance the global order.

Ein Buch, das zum Umdenken einlädt und neue Perspektiven auf unseren Nachbarkontinent eröffnet.

Afrika ist vielfältig – 54 Länder, 54 Realitäten. Der Kontinent erlebt einen wirtschaftlichen Aufbruch: Digitalisierung, erneuerbare Energien und neue Wachstumszentren verändern die Landschaft. Gleichzeitig wandelt sich die Gesellschaft rasant – eine junge Bevölkerung, Fortschritte in Gesundheit und Bildung sowie zunehmende Urbanisierung prägen das Bild. Das Buch zeigt, warum Afrika in den kommenden Jahren eine Schlüsselrolle bei der Lösung globaler Herausforderungen spielen wird. Ohne Afrika wird es keinen wirksamen Klimaschutz, keine nachhaltige Migrationspolitik und keinen funktionierenden Multilateralismus geben.

Oxford Handbooks

This handbook on the "New" Space Economy (NSE) offers the first comprehensive analysis of the contemporary space economy. The "new" is characterized by commercialization, greater participation of the private sector, innovation, and increased engagement of national governments. Using multiple approaches, the volume conceptualizes the boundaries of an emerging field of inquiry, characterized by continuity and change and involving terrestrial and extraterrestrial activities. It covers the fundamental economic, institutional, and technological dynamics and assesses the socio-economic impact of the NSE. Largely a US and European phenomenon, the evolution of the NSE in other spacefaring nations such as China, India, Japan, and Russia is also examined. In The Oxford Handbook of the New Space Economy, chapters by both academics and practitioners systematically address the changing institutional arrangements, interactions between public and private actors, and the role of innovations and entrepreneurship. As constellations of satellites for earth observations, telecommunications, the internet, GPS, and other civilian applications tackle climate change and monitor natural disasters, the unsustainability of space activities due to orbital congestion and space debris is a reality. The 1967 UN Outer Space Treaty, which views space as a "global commons," needs revisiting to address regulatory challenges in space mining and other uses of extraterrestrial resources. This volume advances the state of knowledge on the dynamics of an emerging new space economy, identifies key stakeholders, and opens up future research areas for policymaking.

How the World Works

This book offers the most comprehensive account to date of how trade, migration, and labor markets have bound the United States and Mexico into one of the world's most deeply integrated economies. It highlights the supply chains that connect factories across borders, the workers whose livelihoods span two nations, and the shared opportunities and vulnerabilities that emerge from this unprecedented level of interdependence.

At the heart of Not Just Neighbors is a clear argument: the US-Mexico relationship is not merely about proximity, but about the making of a single North American economy. Trade flows surpassing those with China, the planet's largest migration corridor, and cross-border industries from autos to agriculture all demonstrate how the fate of the two countries are linked.

Drawing on decades of research, the book explains both the gains of integration - competitiveness, efficiency, shared prosperity - and the challenges it produces, such as inequality, dislocation, and political tensions.

Written in a simple and an accessible manner, Not Just Neighbors is a timely and an essential reading for academics and policymakers, business leaders, and engaged citizens alike. It provides a roadmap for cooperative policies that can turn interdependence into a powerful engine of prosperity and security, while warning of the risks if this partnership is neglected.
