Historische Geschlechterforschung

Frauen leiteten im Habsburgerreich eine bunte Vielfalt privater Mädchenschulen. Als Schulunternehmerinnen&nbsp;handelten sie vor dem Hintergrund von Normen und sozialen Ängsten, die die Bildungslandschaft von der Einführung der Unterrichtspflicht im Jahr 1774 bis zum Inkrafttreten des Reichsvolksschulgesetzes im Jahr 1869 und darüber hinaus prägten. Waltraud Schütz betrachtet erstmals die Herausforderungen und Chancen, mit denen diese Frauen konfrontiert waren, und zeigt, dass sie aktive Gestalterinnen ihrer Schulen waren. Dabei werden die Besonderheiten im Bildungssektor, in dem das private und das öffentliche Unterrichtswesen eng miteinander verwoben waren, am Beispiel der Stadt Wien beleuchtet.

How apprenticeship shaped the English economy Apprenticeship dominated training and skill formation in early modern Europe. Years spent learning from a skilled master were a nearly universal experience for young workers in crafts and trade. In England, when apprenticeship reached its peak, as many as a third of all teenage males would serve and learn as apprentices. In The Market for Skill, Patrick Wallis shows how apprenticeship helped reshape the English economy. Some historians see apprenticeship as a key ingredient in the industrial revolution; others agree with Adam Smith in seeing it as wasteful and conservative. Wallis shows that neither of these perspectives is entirely accurate. He offers a new account of apprenticeship and the market for skill in England, analyzing the records of hundreds of thousands of individual apprentices to tell the story of how apprenticeship worked and how it contributed to the transformation of England. Wallis details the activities of apprentices and masters, the strategies of ambitious parents, the interventions of guilds and the decisions of town officials. He shows how the system of early modern apprenticeship contributed to the growth of cities, the movement of workers from farms to manufacturing and the spread of new technologies and productive knowledge. In this groundbreaking study, Wallis argues that apprenticeship succeeded precisely because it was a flexible institution which allowed apprentices to change their minds and exit contracts early. Apprenticeship provided a vital channel for training that families could trust and that was accessible to most young people, whatever their background.

This book bridges a critical gap in macroeconomics and development economics. Using a series of micro-founded models of endogenous growth, based on the Allais-Samuelson overlapping generations (OLG) approach, it explores how gender gaps in education, labor supply, earnings, and political participation interact with economic performance and public policy. It examines the role of entrenched social norms regarding women's role and evaluates the impact of targeted interventions such as childcare subsidies, pay transparency legislation, and investments in human capital, health, and infrastructure. Combining analytical rigor with calibrated simulations, the book provides a policy-relevant lens for understanding gender-based constraints and policies in developing economies, with case studies including Brazil and Morocco. It will be a valuable pedagogical resource for graduate-level courses in macroeconomics and development economics, as well as specialized modules in labor economics and public economics.

'One of the clearest and most important studies to be published on education, worldwide, in many decades' Danny Dorling Does the education system make better people? Why are so many - teachers and students alike - stressed and dissatisfied? Do we need to revive real education? Ideally, education is about the pursuit of truth, beauty and morality. But in the last few decades, a perilous fixation with human capital - skills, knowledge and aptitudes required for the labour market - has trampled over curricula, schools and universities. Rather than learning how to think critically about the world, from cradle to grave students are trained to be more effective workers, to make more money, and to serve an hegemonic ideology. Teachers and researchers are pressed to serve those goals. In this concluding book in his series on the commons, Guy Standing shows us how education - intrinsically a common public good - has been enclosed, privatised, financialised and corrupted, turned into an instrument of societal control, not human emancipation, weakening democracy, not strengthening it. Human Capital charts how the education industry largely serves commercial interests, not its teachers and students, and considers how to revive its lost values, to save society for the common good.

Palgrave Studies in Emerging Risk Management and Sustainable Finance

Cyber incidents impose measurable economic and financial costs through operational disruption, litigation, valuation effects, and systemic spillovers. Understanding these costs requires that someone at the institution can connect technical vulnerabilities to market behavior and institutional responses. This volume provides guidance on cyber risk and financial stability, examining such costs from a markets‑and‑institutions perspective and linking incident outcomes to firm value, insurability, and policy.Contributed chapters explore market reactions to data breaches and class actions, risk quantification and mitigation (models, firm practices, and insurance), and sectoral cases in banking, construction, and power generation. Chapter authors synthesize frameworks and tools across BCBS operational risk and resilience principles, FSB incident response/lexicon, IMF macro‑financial guidance, OECD digital security, and EU instruments (DORA, NIS2, EU‑SCICF), alongside NIST CSF and FFIEC materials. The volume explores how policy and institutional design translate into incentives, incident reporting, resilience, and information sharing.Providing empirical evidence, financial‑econometrics methods (abnormal returns/event studies), policy mapping, and risk‑transfer analyses for cyber insurance, the book helps readers evaluate costs at the firm and system levels, interpret regulatory signals for financial institutions, and design governance and investment responses. It serves academics in finance/economics, policymakers, and practitioners seeking structured guidance on cyber risk and financial stability.Thomas Walker

The Economics of Cyber Risk

This book examines the migration of highly skilled labour from developing countries to developed ones and assesses the economics costs associated with this. By highlighting the impact of migration on developing countries, it outlines the development challenges created by the loss of highly skilled workers, especially the loss of specialised knowledge. With a particular focus on the movement of labour from Turkey to the rest of the world, the inability of Turkey to grow its own IT and engineering industries is discussed, alongside attempts to retain skilled labour through the promotion of health tourism.
This book offers a new perspective on global migration and the hidden economic costs associated with it. It will be relevant to students, researchers, and policymakers interested in labour and development economics.

This book delves deep into the complex, ethically fraught topic of proofreading of student writing by exploring a variety of perspectives on proofreading interventions in student texts. It gives voice to a range of ethical perspectives, from those who are deeply troubled by proofreading of student writing to those who take a more permissive stance and those whose confusion lands them somewhere in between. As the first book-length work on this topic, it makes a necessary contribution to research on proofreading of student work.

Palgrave Insights into Apocalypse Economics

This book reassesses classic Marxist theories of finance capital and uneven development in the context of the present intensified process of financialization and the accentuation of combined and accelerating uneven development. In particular, the work of Hilferding and Luxemburg is discussed and re-framed in light of both the contributions of Marx and more recent engagements by David Harvey and Neil Smith. The book explores the case of South Africa in particular in light of the combination of a rapidly financializing yet crisis-ridden South African political economy on the one hand and intensifying social inequality and political conflict on the other.&nbsp;It explores a series of strategies and possibilities that might open up trajectories for change and transformation with particular attention paid to the promises and constraints of the de-growth movement and intersectional class struggle, which will appeal to political economists, researchers, and students alongside those studying South Africa specifically.
