Reforming Capitalism, Going Digital and Green

Japan’s Approach

Imprinted traces literacy and Caribbean literary culture from the late nineteenth century to today. Imprinted is a history of literacy and the development of a literary culture in the Caribbean from the late 19th century to contemporary times. It explores the places and spaces of such a cultural journey, during and after the colonial period. Entwined within this critique is the story of the author's own reading history, from a child reader devouring the books (Black Power heroes and romance fiction) in her family home in Dominica to the concerns of a literary scholar of a digital age. A remarkable investigation full of personal reflection and awareness of the social, political and economic dynamics that shape Caribbean reading experiences.

'Imprinted' is a history of reading and the development of a literary culture in the Caribbean. It explores the places and spaces for reading, especially in Dominica, the author's birthplace.

Nanocellulose has emerged as one of the most promising sustainable nanomaterials of the twenty-first century due to its exceptional mechanical strength, biodegradability, renewability, and wide-ranging applications. Derived from abundant biomass and agricultural residues, nanocellulose presents innovative solutions to pressing global challenges, including resource depletion, environmental pollution, and the need for sustainable materials within a circular bioeconomy framework.Sustainable Utilization of Nanocellulose and its Derivatives provides a comprehensive and up-to-date overview of the production, modification, and advanced applications of nanocellulose. The book explores sustainable extraction technologies from agricultural and agro-industrial residues such as wheat, rice, hemp straw, bamboo, and banana waste, highlighting resource recovery and waste valorization strategies. It further covers surface modification and characterization techniques, nanocellulose-based composites, hydrogels, films, and coatings, along with emerging applications in food packaging, environmental remediation, biomedical engineering, drug delivery systems, energy storage and photovoltaic devices. The volume also addresses current challenges and future opportunities related to the large-scale production and commercialization of nanocellulose. Bridging fundamental science and technological innovation, this book serves as an essential reference for researchers, graduate students, material scientists, environmental engineers, and industry professionals seeking sustainable solutions for a circular and bio-based future.

THE INSTANT SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLERThe world's criminals earn trillions every year. They keep almost all of it. Every effort to stop them has failed. Why? Join Oliver Bullough through the looking glass, voyaging through the dark heart of the global economy: where flows of dirty banknotes, designer goods and baby eels prop up illicit networks spanning from Miami to Shanghai - via, strangely, North Oxfordshire. Cryptocurrencies flow through ledgers that would look familiar to a fifteenth-century Florentine banker. Casinos, lottery tickets and government ignorance all power the merry-go-round of dirty money. And it all works brilliantly. Better than ever. There has never been a better time to be a criminal. It's time that changed.

Compared to their larger Asian counterparts, Philippine conglomerates have tracked a unique growth trajectory in the face of chronic poverty, economic inequality, and political conflict. While there are many studies about the zaibatsus of Japan and the chaebols of South Korea, there has been minimal research on Philippine conglomerates and their contributions to the successful turnaround of an economy that was once considered the region's perennial laggard.In this collection of essays, the authors interrogate the relationship between conglomerates and inclusive development by highlighting the Philippine experience and comparing it with those of other Southeast and East Asian economies, notably Vietnam, Indonesia, and South Korea. Have Philippine conglomerates been central to the country's economic miracle? How have they contributed to the attainment of the government's inclusive development agenda? What can be learned from the successes and failures of other Asian conglomerates? These are the key themes this volume seeks to answer to shed light on how conglomerates have impacted the course of the country's economic development.

Philippine Conglomerates And Inclusive Development: Tracking A Unique Trajectory In Asia

Algorithmic Management: Artificial Intelligence and the Transformation of Organizations is the first comprehensive textbook designed to prepare management students to engage critically and responsibly with artificial intelligence in organizations. Bringing together classical management theory, contemporary AI applications, and systematic power analysis, the book equips future managers to both harness AI's potential and confront its risks.Structured in three parts, the book begins with foundational frameworks-socio-technical systems theory, technology and society perspectives, and core management theories reinterpreted for the AI era. It then examines applications across all major management functions-Marketing, HR, Finance, Operations, Supply Chain, and Strategy-using over 30 real-world case studies drawn from different industries, parts of the world, and types of organizations from multinational corporations to nonprofits and social ventures. The final section addresses organizational design, leadership, governance, and the future of algorithmic organizations. Throughout, pedagogical features-learning objectives, vignettes, discussion questions, toolkits, and ethical dilemmas-make the book classroom-ready and adaptable across MBA, undergraduate, and executive education settings. The text advances an approach of pragmatic criticality: AI is neither celebrated uncritically nor rejected outright but treated as a socio-technical phenomenon requiring managerial judgment, ethical reflection, and contextual awareness.By bridging management theory, functional practice, and critical perspectives, this book fills a critical market gap and is positioned to become the definitive teaching resource on AI and management for business education worldwide.

The primary objective of this book is to address a formal representation of household economy in welfare economics in spatial terms. Although it has been argued since the nineteenth century that in exploring a reasonable indicator to measure the real welfare level of households, several difficulties remain to be faced in economic theory. The most relevant method in this specific topic is social welfare function. While various types of indicators were historically developed and improved as a replacement of existing economic growth indicators such as GDP and GRP using social welfare function, there still is a problem with evaluating the individual's utility as an aggregate term. As an alternative method of measuring the real welfare level of households, location theory may be a possibility for solving some potentially problematic issues. To be precise, location theory requires the inclusion of notions of transportation costs, spatially constrained internal and external economies, and other distance-related variables. From the standpoint of equality, this specific approach enables an analysis to investigate spatial differentiation. In other words, spatial differentiation of households can be interpreted as spatial consumer exclusion. Hence, the real welfare level of households can be measured by means of the accessibility of goods and services, of which there are several types, such as essential and luxury ones. As a result, spatial distribution of goods and services depending on their types can be considered a component of social welfare function. The topics addressed in the book include social welfare function in spatial terms, location theory related to firms and households, attractiveness of regions, economic and social infrastructure elements, and sustainable growth and development of regions.
