Hejman-Mancewicz J: The Migration of
Women from the Global South

The Migration of Women from the Global South

Seeking Economic, Civil and Political Freedom

Applied Innovation and Technology Management

Why do some countries build innovation systems that foster learning, experimentation, and technological progress, while others struggle to move beyond dependency and stagnation? This book examines this central question through a multidisciplinary lens, combining insights from innovation systems theory, institutional economics, development studies, and global political economy. It offers a comprehensive framework for understanding the systemic roots of innovation failure in emerging and transition economies. It shows how fragmented institutions, weak absorptive capacities, and short-term policy horizons create persistent barriers to learning and capability building and how these obstacles can be overcome through coordinated governance, strategic coherence, and adaptive policymaking. Drawing on real-world examples and comparative evidence, this book is appropriate for researchers, graduate students, and policymakers concerned with innovation, industrial policy, and economic transformation in developing and emerging economies.

Elusive Innovation

African Studies and Research Forum Series

This monograph offers a detailed examination of the role of Chinese infrastructure development aid and foreign direct investment (FDI) in the economic growth of three key African countries: Nigeria, Ethiopia, and Kenya. The author argues that a significant positive correlation exists between Chinese infrastructure aid and investment and the GDP growth in these countries. Furthermore, the author examines whether a dependency relationship exists between Chinese infrastructure aid and FDI in these nations. This point is crucial as it explores these economies' long-term sustainability and autonomy, questioning whether they are becoming over-reliant on Chinese aid and FDI. Using comparative analysis, the book discusses the impacts of China's infrastructure projects across both economic and social dimensions. This work is an essential resource for scholars, policymakers, and practitioners who wish to understand the intricacies of China's involvement in Africa. It contributes to informed decision-making and policy formulation by shedding light on the impact of development through a well-rounded comparative perspective. The insights provided will benefit those involved in development economics, international relations, public policy, and African studies.

Against the macro backdrop of global digital economic transformation, this book systematically reveals the transformation logic of China's manufacturing industry through the collaborative evolution of technology, institutions, and markets, with "how digital trade reconstructs the value creation system of enterprise manufacturing" as its core thread. The book is committed to three major research objectives: first, breaking through the limitations of traditional paradigms; second, analyzing institutional innovations for digital trade; third, proposing actionable strategies for global competitiveness. This book integrates institutional shifts and global value chains to propose a "policy-technology-market" synergistic evolution model, demonstrating their self-reinforcing cycle: policy guidance drives technological investment → technology enhances market competitiveness → market feedback optimizes policies. The book establishes a research framework encompassing "environment-mechanism-application-prospect," culminating in an analytical model of "technology penetration-institutional adaptation-global governance." This model not only addresses cutting-edge theories in the digital economy but also aligns with China's manufacturing sector in its transition from a manufacturing giant to a manufacturing powerhouse, thereby establishing a robust foundation for industrial advancement.

Hanau, 19. Februar 2020: Ein Rechtsextremist erschießt an mehreren Tatorten neun Menschen aus rassistischen Motiven, weitere werden schwer verletzt. Unter ihnen der damals 23-jährige Said Etris Hashemi und sein 21-jähriger Bruder Said Nesar, sowie weitere Freunde. Etris wird am Hals getroffen, überlebt nur knapp. Sein Bruder stirbt vor Ort, jede Hilfe kommt zu spät. Wenige Sekunden, die alles verändern ¿ nicht nur im Leben der Betroffenen, sondern gesamtgesellschaftlich. Hanau löst eine wichtige Debatte aus, über Diskriminierung, rechten Terror in diesem Land, den Polizeiapparat und die Chancen für Deutschland. Etris' Geschichte ist der wohl persönlichste Bericht des Überlebenden eines Attentats, das Deutschland für immer verändert hat.

Dynamic Modeling and Econometrics in Economics and Finance

Nonlinear models are indispensable in modern finance, yet their reliance on numerical root-finding methods introduces layers of complexity that demand careful attention. This textbook offers a comprehensive and accessible guide to understanding these challenges and applying advanced econometric techniques to real-world financial and economic time series data.
Designed for students, professionals, and researchers with a foundational background in statistics, econometrics, and finance, this book bridges the gap between theory and practice. It introduces key concepts progressively, making it suitable for both intermediate and advanced readers. Each chapter is written in clear, approachable language, ensuring that even those with limited prior experience in econometrics can grasp and apply the material effectively.
The book is organized into five chapters that progressively guide readers through key concepts in financial time series modeling. It begins with Chapter 1, which introduces data filtering techniques, emphasizing the Kalman Filter's role in improving model accuracy. Chapter 2 explores volatility modeling, addressing common challenges in measuring and interpreting variance in financial data. Chapter 3 builds on this by presenting hybrid approaches that combine GARCH models with neural networks to enhance predictive performance. Chapter 4 applies dynamic volatility models to option valuation, offering both theoretical insights and practical tools. Finally, Chapter 5 delves into regime-switching models, including MSAR (Markov Switching Auto Regressive) and STAR (Smooth Transition Auto Regressive), to capture nonlinear behaviors and structural shifts in time series data. Together, these chapters form a cohesive narrative on modeling the dynamic behavior of financial time series, with a particular emphasis on volatility and structural shifts. Whether you're a finance professional, economist, or data scientist, this book is an essential resource for mastering the tools and techniques that drive modern financial analysis.

A Practical Approach

Non-Linearity in Econometric Modeling, Vol. 1

Lecture Notes in Economics and Mathematical Systems

This volume would prove to be a beneficial textbook option for economics faculties wishing to offer a PhD level course on quantitative developmental economics or applied economics. This reference volume offers a gentle introduction to various state-of-the-art mathematical and econometric modelling techniques with detailed applications. Each chapter, written by experienced scholars, describe a particular quantitative method for economic modelling and policy analysis. The chapters not only cover the theoretical foundations in a student-friendly language but also provide step-by-step guide to computational aspects. Real-world applications, given in each chapter, focus on the socio-economic conditions and well-being of people in the developing economies and middle-income countries.

Quantitative Methods for Applied Development Economics and Policy Analysis

In the wake of World War I, the League of Nations and numerous investigative journalists went undercover to infiltrate sex-trafficking rings, conduct clandestine interviews with men and women participating in the vice trade, and identify the weak links in their operations in order to destroy this "global menace." These covert researchers discovered that the sex-trafficking industry was dominated not by vast underworld syndicates but by petty hustlers operating tiny fly-by-night operations. In Dealing in Human Flesh, Jeffrey S. Adler uses these unpublished field reports to map how small-time criminals conducted their sex-trafficking ventures. Adler shows that, despite policymakers' (and filmmakers') obsessions with the cartels and international crime rings of myth, it was in fact the business model of sex traffickers that narcotics and arms smugglers borrowed from to forge the surprisingly un-organized structure of early twenty-first-century human, cocaine, and weapons trafficking.

Population Economics

This book introduces edumetrics, a rigorous, interdisciplinary framework for measuring learning outcomes over time and across space. Based on Lord Kelvin’s maxim that "to measure is to know," edumetrics redefines education as an empirical science that integrates economics, psychology, and social science to quantify cognitive and non-cognitive competencies.

By harmonizing data from over 120 countries spanning half a century, the book transforms fragmented indicators into coherent measures of learning quality and equity. It critiques the limitations of traditional human capital theory and challenges the use of years of schooling as a proxy for skill. Through econometric analysis, historical inquiry, and global datasets, including Learning-Adjusted Years of Schooling, it reveals that educational structures, not just resources, shape productivity, adaptability, and social cohesion.

At its core, the book addresses the paradox of why rising investments in schooling have not yielded proportional gains in learning. With its integration of theory, data, and historical perspective, it serves as both a methodological blueprint and a call to rethink how we define, measure, and value learning in the twenty-first century.

Polen ist nicht das einzige Land in Europa, das von Rechtspopulisten regiert wird. Doch die Gespenster der Vergangenheit drängen hier mit besonderer Impertinenz an die Macht. Das liegt, so die These des Essays, an der Wirkmächtigkeit des Untergrunds. Widerstand gegen Fremdherrschaft, Besatzung und Krieg - man denke an den Untergrundstaat im Zweiten Weltkrieg oder die klandestin operierende Solidarnosc-Bewegung -, ist zentral für das nationale Selbstverständnis, der assoziationsreiche Grund, auf dem die Partei Recht und Gerechtigkeit (PiS) ihre Herrschaft errichtet: Untergrund macht Staat. Ist der Untergrund und mit ihm das Subversive, Widerständige nun für immer vergiftet? Oder gibt es neue, transnational orientierte Bürgerbewegungen »von unten«?

Frontiers in Economic History

This volume examines the state of the economic history discipline around the globe. It raises and answers questions such as: What are its roots, how did it evolve, and what is the current state of the discipline in each country or region presented?

Transcending traditional Western paradigms, the book gathers renowned economic historians from around the globe to engage in a comprehensive dialogue about economic history's global standing. Investigating its role in shaping future economists, addressing pivotal questions, and its symbiotic relationship with economics, contributors analyze economic history's resonance across continents. By doing so, the chapters are not intended to be a survey of the research on each country, but rather an overview of the discipline: its practice, training, and position within the broader economics discipline.

Addressing an academic audience, this book further analyzes the interplay of human capital scarcity and its profound impact on academia, spotlighting the evolution of economic history in diverse cultural and regional contexts. Scrutinizing historical milestones, such as Schumpeter's paradigm-shifting pillars and Romer's reflections, the book discusses the need to redefine economic history's role and takes readers on a journey through economic history from its pivotal role to its integration into the broader discipline.
