The Business of Poverty in Africa

Routledge Studies in the Economics of Innovation

Inclusion and Innovation in the Digital Economy shows how Europe's digital future can be both innovative and inclusive. Based on EU-27 data from 2015 to 2023, it uncovers what truly drives digital progress and how countries can align technological growth with social equity.At its heart lies a unique framework that connects innovation with inclusion, highlighting not only technology and growth but also the critical roles of skills, trust, and fairness. By combining advanced analytical tools with accessible explanations, the book maps national pathways of digitalisation and develops credible scenarios to 2030 for indices such as Digital Economy and Society Index (DESI). The results are clear: Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) human capital is the decisive channel through which socio-economic structures shape digital outcomes.By identifying distinct trajectories across the EU, the book translates complex data into actionable insights for policy, strategy, and investment. With clear visuals, transparent sources, and replicable methods, it is both rigorous and practical. This book is written for researchers seeking evidence, policymakers shaping digital strategies, and business leaders making informed decisions. It is not just another academic study, but a decision-enabling resource for Europe's digital decade.

Inclusion and Innovation in the Digital Economy

Routledge Revivals

The problem of economic development in the Global South was recognized as one of the defining challenges of the twentieth century. Professor Duller, a Dutch economist who worked in advisory and research capacities across various developing nations, demonstrates in Development Technology (originally published in 1982) how these challenges could be addressed through the application of specially designed or adapted technology.The author observes that development planners had been misled by apparent parallels between nineteenth-century Western industrialization and late twentieth-century conditions in third world countries. While Western industrialization drew its workforce from agriculture during periods of low demographic growth and high industrial employment, the Global South faced different circumstances: rapidly increasing populations and modern technologies that provided limited employment opportunities. The strategies advocated since the 1950s had largely failed to achieve self-sustained economic growth in these nations.Professor Duller argues that the solution remained technological but required a radically new approach that responded to the actual conditions prevailing in much of the developing world.

Development Technology

Every leader comes to power promising growth: think back to the campaigns of Boris, Truss, Trump. Yet real-term income isn't improving. Across the West, growth has stagnated for well over a decade, leading to cost of living crises, political instability and rising social tensions. Is real economic growth still possible? And with the climate emergency accelerating beyond repair, should we still be pushing for it? In Icarus Economics, acclaimed economist John Rapley argues that the problem of growth is inherently tied up with the climate crisis. We often assume that poor countries will bear the brunt of climate change, pandemics, and other exogenous shocks, but this book argues the opposite: western societies have more wealth and capital to lose and are less inherently resilient. In this book, he shows us how rich countries can grow their own economies by helping poor countries to decarbonise - and in the process, mitigate the effects of climate change.

Why Rich Economies Are Struggling - and How to Fix Them

Icarus Economics

The global market in money – housed in the offshore ‘shadow’ banking system – holds $217 trillion in financial assets and operates beyond the reach of any nation’s taxman. Asset managers, private equity firms, and pension and sovereign wealth funds scoop up the world’s savings for investment and manage them as they choose, unaccountable to politicians or the citizens who elect them. In this brilliant, accessible and incisive introduction to the murky world of glo­balized finance, Ann Pettifor links the activities of remote mobile financial markets to both the cost-of-living and climate crises. In an insane global casino, bankers are gambling with our future. When we foot the bill, no one but a few economists understands what has happened. The result is volatile, unpre­dictable and uncontrollable speculation in global commodities, pension, energy, and housing. Pettifor argues that societies and gov­ernments can take back control of the global financial system. We have done it before and can do it again. Indeed, it is imperative that we do so if we are to manage the twin threats of climate breakdown and biosphere collapse.

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.

Elements in Development Economics

Why do well-meaning developmental policies fail? Power intervenes. Consider the recent collapse of the peace agreement between the Colombian government and FARC guerillas. Achieving inclusive development entails resolving collective-action problems of forging cooperation among agents with disparate interests and understandings. Resolution relies on developing functional informal and formal institutions. Powerful agents shape institutional evolution-because they can. This Element outlines a conceptual framework for policy-relevant inquiry. It addresses the concept of power-noting sources, instruments, manifestations, domains of operation, and strategic templates. After discussing leadership, following, and brokerage, it addresses institutional entrepreneurship. Institutional entrepreneurs develop narratives and actions to influence incentives and interpretations of social norms and identities: foundations of strategic interactions that shape institutional evolution. This approach facilitates inquiry into the roots and consequences of context-specific developmental dilemmas: background for developmental policy analysis. This title is also available as open access on Cambridge Core.

The Role of Power and Agency

Developmental Dilemmas

China is the world's biggest carbon emitter as well as the leading producer of green energy. What lies behind this fascinating contradiction? In recent years, China has built more renewable energy infrastructure than the rest of the world combined and is leading the global shift towards electrification. The Green Superpower: How China Shapes Our Future outlines China's role as a green leader in the upcoming Fourth Industrial Revolution and illustrates how European companies can become more competitive by learning from their Chinese counterparts. Experienced journalist and regional expert Christina Boutrup explores how China is leading the move away from fossil fuels, from how affordable Chinese solar panels are revolutionising the global energy landscape to the electrification of the world's largest car market and the revolutionary implications of autonomous AI technologies. Cautiously optimistic, the author covers key geopolitical trends affecting green economic progress across the world, and ultimately serves a wake-up call: to compete with China's success, Western business leaders need to learn from their Chinese counterparts and treat the green transition as a business case. The balance of global power is poised to shift. No longer copycat manufacturers of inferior products, Chinese firms are at the forefront of the world's potential first "electrostate". Now more than ever it is vital to acknowledge the central role that China plays in the transition to green energy and to learn from their strategies. The Green Superpower is essential reading for policymakers, business leaders, and practitioners who operate at the intersection of environmental policy, security, sustainability and innovation.

Available open access digitally under CC-BY-NC-ND licence. Despite decades of gender equality policies, women, girls, and gender diverse people are still the most negatively impacted by the climate crisis and food and housing insecurity. So where will the financing for change come from? This edited collection demonstrates that public banks hold untapped potential to advance a gender-transformative development agenda. Offering case studies from around the world, it examines how and to what extent national and regional public banks are addressing structural inequalities through their governance, mandates, and lending practices. Focusing on institutions with strong social development goals, the book highlights the promising practices that are already driving positive change.
