New Frontiers in Regional Science: Asian Perspectives

This book integrates diversified disciplines, research approaches, and methodologies of area studies, regional economic development, and regional science. With its huge population, China has accomplished rapid economic growth since the 1990s, although the significant income gap among regions and individuals has become a serious problem for its society. China's accession to the WTO in 2001 has had various influences on the entire food system, from agriculture to consumers, through the food manufacturing and distribution industries. The changes in the Chinese food system are considered to have also affected the agriculture and food industries in Asian countries where economic interdependence has been promoted in past decades. The author argues these issues based on interdisciplinary and multi-disciplinary methods and approaches and has successfully derived empirical and theoretical results that are rich in policy implications. The topics addressed include food security and sustainability of agriculture especially in the suburbs of big cities; poverty reduction in rural agricultural areas amidst prosperity in urban and coastal areas; regional networks and international trade of the food industry in East Asia; creation of innovative knowledge and human capital for clustering of the agro-food sector; regional development strategy; and international cooperation. The book is interesting for researchers in the field, especially for those who are concerned with the food system that has been changed dynamically in the past two decades, and it is informative, as well, for practitioners who are engaged in related business.

Vom ersten Engagement zum erfolgreichen Social Business (AT)

Gründet Euch!

New York Times Bestseller *Shortlisted for the Financial Times and Schroders Business Book of the Year* From an indispensable voice on China comes a riveting, first-hand account of China's seismic progress For close to a decade, Dan Wang has been observing China's tumultuous and astounding growth. The state has constructed towering bridges, gleaming railways and sprawling factories to improve economic outcomes in record time. But rapid change has also sent ripples of pain throughout society. China has grown so quickly in part by beating America at its own game: capitalism and harnessing the restless energy of a vast population. Here Wang blends political and economic analysis with reportage into a provocative new framework for understanding China - one that helps us see America more clearly, too. Whereas China is an engineering state, relentlessly building big, the United States has transformed into a lawyerly society, stalling every attempt to make change, both good and bad. As relations between the US and China are tense and uncertain and the potential for dreadful conflict looms, Wang offers an inventive new way of thinking about the two superpowers. Breakneck reveals that each country points towards a better path for the other. How much better the world would be, he argues, if Americans could live in a society not only governed by lawyers, and Chinese citizens could live with a state that values their individual liberties.

Problem-Solving in Microeconomics

To paraphrase Sir Winston Churchill, never has so much pornography been available to so many people for so little. This is the story of how the online adult industry has plummeted from its lofty heights of the late 1990s, when a savvy Web entrepreneur could charge premium prices to thousands of eager subscribers. It is also the story of how the law has completely failed to keep pace with the technological innovations that boosted and then savaged the online adult industry. It concludes by analysing the social impact of virtually unlimited pornography of every description, available to all ages at the click of a button. Useful reading for the general reader and for students and researchers involved with business strategy, the history of technology, cultural studies, sexuality, media studies and technology more generally.

Traditionally, the presence of pornography in American society has been mediated by two primary factors: legal restrictions and the relatively high cost of the product. The degree of legal restrictions on adult material has varied from era to era and community to community, but the porn premium has remained relatively constant. Given this, these should be heady days for adult business owners. Thanks to the Internet, distribution costs are virtually nil and even the most hardcore content is easily accessible in the smallest coastal hamlet and most rural farmhouse in America. Adult industry balance sheets should be bulging with profit. But in reality, far from it. The World Wide Web has completely eradicated both the legal restrictions and premium cost that used to govern adult industry economics. To paraphrase Sir Winston Churchill, never has so much pornography been available to so many people for so little. This is the story of how the online adult industry has plummeted from its lofty heights of the late 1990s, when a savvy Web entrepreneur could charge thousands of eager subscribers premium prices.

It concludes with a detailed analysis of the social impact of virtually unlimited pornography of every description, available to all ages at the click of a button.Accessible to the general reader, this book will appeal to those who want to know more about the adult entertainment industry in America and will prove useful reading for students and researchers involved with a wide variety of academic disciplines including business strategy, the history of technology, cultural studies, sexuality, media studies and technology more generally.

Even before its launch, economists questioned whether the Euro Area had what it takes to become an optimal currency area. The onset of the crisis in 2010 confirmed challenges in its construction that many had partly predicted. But has the Euro Area changed over time, and what key drivers are necessary to strengthen it in the future?&nbsp;
 This is the third of three volumes that use optimal currency area theory and applied econometric techniques to provide a compact analysis of the Euro Area, its evolution and future perspectives. This volume is dedicated to a criterion often seen as critical for an optimal currency area: a risk-sharing mechanism. Did the Euro Area’s stabilization mechanisms work as intended? In this timely book, the authors discuss the extent to which the Euro Area has developed fiscal transfers, insurance schemes, and financial markets that allow its members to share macroeconomic risks and smooth asymmetric shocks. The book is of interest to a wide range of researchers in financial economics, macroeconomics and economic policy.&nbsp;

Optimal Currency Areas and the Euro, Volume III

Filling a critical gap that has left founders unprepared for the nuances of corporate venture capital (CVC) engagement, this book provides a definitive, practitioner-focused field guide for navigating this complex world, avoiding pitfalls caused by misaligned incentives, hidden terms, or corporate politics.With CVCs now participating in over 20% of all venture deals, founders urgently need a playbook that addresses the unique strategic motivations, management structures, and deal terms of these powerful and increasingly common investors. This book is the first and only one written for the founder on how to negotiate with CVCs, focusing specifically on side letter terms and their long-term and often unforeseen impacts. Written by a practicing CVC investor with deep experience across institutional and corporate VC, it also offers a rare, holistic view of the entire venture ecosystem, enabling understanding of how a CVC's dual strategic and financial goals predict their behavior, incentives, and potential conflicts of interest.Through detailed checklists and case studies, this book covers every step of the startup-CVC engagement, from pre-meeting research to post-closing strategy. This book is the definitive resource for startup founders and their executive teams who are actively fundraising or preparing to raise from CVCs, institutional VCs working with CVCs, and for students in MBA, law, and undergraduate business programs interested in a career in startups or corporate venture capital.

Starting an ABA practice is exciting-and overwhelming. Too many passionate, well-intentioned professionals jump in with big hearts but without a clear roadmap. The result? Burnout, financial stress, sleepless nights, and businesses that collapse under the weight of uncertainty.This book was written to change that.Stephen Smith, founder of 3 Pie Squared and the ABA Business Leaders platform, has spent more than a decade working with ABA business owners across the country. Along the way, he and his wife learned many of the hardest lessons firsthand-navigating sleepless 3 a.m. payroll panics, staff misalignments, underpricing, and the cost of building without vision. Later, through consulting and his podcast, Stephen saw the same patterns repeating in thousands of practices.What sets this book apart is its honesty. Stephen doesn't offer magic formulas or one-size-fits-all solutions. Instead, he shares practical guidance, stories, and the key questions every ABA business owner must ask to build something sustainable, ethical, and meaningful. From clarifying your vision and values to avoiding common traps around hiring, clients, and finances, this book is both a guide and a challenge: a way to help you see what you may not have considered-and to act before it's too late.If you're building a typical ABA center or in-home agency, this book will help you create a stronger foundation. If you're creating something unique, it will spark curiosity and imagination, helping you stay aligned with your mission.Above all, this book is an invitation to lead differently. To slow down, think clearly, and build a practice you're proud of.Because at the end of the day, success isn't about avoiding mistakes-it's about learning from them before they break you.

This book focuses on a very important and still controversial topic in Japan, namely, whether a future exists for Japanese farmers, especially rice-producing farmers. Dealt with here is the prospect along with a personal view of the course that Japanese agriculture should follow, that is, a prescription for enriching the international competitiveness of the agricultural sector, especially rice production, in a more market-oriented economy. Toward restoration of Japanese agriculture, prescriptions are pursued from different aspects. One is the planting schedule of various farm products at the micro level such as the crop rotation system, derived from the mixed-integer dynamic programming model. Another is a macroeconomic policy to enhance the export of the restored 2 million tons of rice by the abolition of the policy of reducing rice acreage-a policy considered unreasonable by some. The path that agriculture in Japan should take has been argued by scholars and experts in related fields. However, no argument has been based on scientific and objective proof. Some applications of mixed-integer dynamic programming model are shown, which are very useful for policy makers as well as graduate students in the field of economic policy (esp. regional &amp; dynamics) and dynamic agricultural planning (esp. planting &amp; comprehensive management).

Evolutionary Economics and Social Complexity Science

This is the first book to present a new approach of institutional design as an evolutionary applied policy based on coherent conceptualization and methodology, and to study the actuality and implications of diversifying real/virtual community currencies. In contrast to a de facto standard theory, an institutional ecosystem can be composed of various institutions that continue to coexist with changing relative frequencies. In this view, diversified monetary institutions with local rules are feasible and realistic. Community currencies are worldwide attempts to redress such problems as financial instability, chronic stagnation, and decline of communities caused by globalization of the economy. Considering those alternative movements as a new type of policy, "evolutionist institutional design", this book clarifies the feasibility and significance of community currencies in the current era of globalization. The book also provides a better understanding than mainstream approaches of such platform institutions as money that determine fundamental means of cognition and action of interacting agents. Money is a symbolically generalized communication medium in the mesodomain that mediates between socioeconomic performance and patterns in the macrodomain and motives and cognitive frameworks in the microdomain. Conventional national systems of money and finance are platform institutions that determine basic replicators for a capitalistic market economy to evolve. In contrast, community currencies conveying both economic and social/cultural values are distinct platform institutions that are expected to endogenously change such basic replicators in outer and inner institutions for agents to a noncapitalistic market economy. These currencies are considered target institutions for "media design" in the framework of evolutionist institutional design.
